"...I am quite interested in this aspect myself, and I have some abilities. Since my lord, you don't think this matter is low-level and think it is very important, then I will take on this task.
As for things like reputation, they are all illusory, and it doesn’t matter if you want them or not.
It doesn't matter if others don't understand me or have misunderstandings. Their opinions have nothing to do with me.
As long as the master knows what I am doing, knows whether what I am doing is important or not, and can understand me, it is enough.
If I don’t do this kind of thing, who else can do it?”
Liu Cheng said that he wanted Lu Yang to think about it before making a decision, but Lu Yang didn't even think about it at all and just took over this job, which was not a good job at all.
Hearing that Lu Yang agreed without any hesitation, Liu Cheng immediately stood up from his seat and reached out to hold Lu Yang's hands.
"I, Liu Cheng, have written down what happened today. As long as you retreat without failing me, then I will not fail you by retreating!"
After saying that, Liu Cheng took out the sword from his waist and struck it on the table next to him, splitting the entire table into two halves!
"If you violate these words, you will be like this table from now on!"
Liu Cheng held the sword and said loudly.
Lu Yang, who was standing next to him, looked at this scene with his eyes a little red...
"Intelligence cannot be completed by one person. Instead, we might as well develop some reliable people to work together. In this way, the information we get will become more and more accurate."
Liu Cheng sat next to the desk that he split in half, watching Lu Yang say this, and expressed some of his ideas about intelligence.
Lu Yang nodded, indicating that he had remembered it.
"Oh, by the way, since this matter was officially brought up today, you might as well make it more formal and give the area you are responsible for a name."
Liu Cheng said aloud as if he remembered something.
"I wonder what name my lord would like to give me?"
Liu Cheng's face suddenly showed a smile.
This smile fell in Lu Yang's eyes, making him feel strange.
"Why don't we call him Jinyiwei?"
Imagine that in this era of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, a group of people appeared carrying embroidered spring knives and wearing flying fish suits. Liu Cheng found it very funny.
Therefore, after saying the words "Jinyiwei", the smile on Liu Cheng's face became even brighter, and he even laughed out loud.
When such a thing fell into the eyes of Lu Yang beside him, Lu Yang became even more confused.
He thought about it carefully in his mind, but he still couldn't figure out what the meaning of the word "Jinyiwei" was.
However, seeing his lord smiling so happily, in order not to embarrass his lord and make him feel stupid, Lu Yang also laughed.
Liu Cheng originally wanted to stop laughing, but when he saw Lu Yang, who was in a trapped state and laughing with him, he couldn't help but laugh for a while before he stopped laughing.
This kind of happiness can only be understood and experienced by people who have traveled from later generations. People in this era cannot experience it.
"From now on, when you retire, you will be the captain of the newly established Jinyiwei. You will be directly responsible for me. The personnel development and deployment of Jinyiwei are up to you. I will basically not interfere."
Liu Cheng, who finally managed to hold back his laughter, quickly spoke up and explained the business in order to appear serious.
He was just a cavalry captain, but he directly promoted Lu Yang to a school captain, which is a very valuable position in today's era.
Of course, because Liu Cheng, who promoted Lu Yang, was not in a high position, and because the word "Jinyiwei" had never appeared in the Han Dynasty, Lu Yang's "Jinyiwei" school captain had a lower gold content...
…
"I will wait a moment and allocate some money specifically for the use of the imperial guards who have retired from you.
Doing intelligence is inseparable from money..."
…
After some arrangements, Liu Cheng finally decided on his own intelligence department and had a formal organization.
It's just a start-up now, and Liu Cheng himself didn't have much experience in this area before, so that's all it can do for now.
In future development, further adjustments and refinements will be made based on the actual situations encountered.
Liu Cheng sat on a chair and considered things carefully.
The chair was specially made by him.
Coming from a later generation, he was really not used to the kneeling style of this era, as well as the futons and straw mats used for sitting.
Especially sitting on one's knees is something Liu Cheng really hates.
After sitting on my knees for a longer time, I felt uncomfortable all over my body. Those legs were almost no longer my own...
Lu Yang, who had not been out much, came back again and brought a message to Liu Cheng: "King Hongnong, Queen Mother He and Concubine Tang are all dead, and it was Li Ru's hand."
When Lu Yang said these words, his expression was a little unnatural, and he felt a little panicked unconsciously.
For him who grew up in this era, people like King Hongnong and Queen Mother He were different from others and had great significance. But now they were killed by Li Ru...
Liu Cheng was not surprised when he heard the news, because as early as in later generations, he knew that Liu Bian, Queen Mother and others would die in the hands of Li Ru. Now it is just history repeating itself.
Moreover, he was born under the red flag, so he had no special feelings about the emperor and the queen mother...
