The Imperial City is located on the east side of the Imperial City, not far from the Zhenwusi Yamen. It only takes a quarter of an hour to get there by horse-drawn carriage.
Standing in front of the imperial city gate, Qin Wei suddenly felt a cold breath coming towards him.
This Imperial City is not a good place. Folk warriors regard it as a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and the court officials regard it as a gloomy place. It is the kind of place that everyone despises but no one dares to mess with.
Therefore, it was very quiet in front of the Imperial City Division, a little too quiet.
"Who are you?"
Before Qin Wei even approached the gate of the Imperial City Division, he was stopped by two gatekeepers with solemn faces.
"I am the king of Xin'an County. If you have anything to do, please see the prince!"
The two disciples looked Qin Wei up and down, and then looked at Yuwen Chengdu behind Qin Wei.
"It turns out to be His Highness the County Prince. Your Highness the County Prince, please wait a moment. I will go and report it now."
The Imperial City Department is supervised by the ceremonial supervisor, the eunuch Lu Gonggong, and there are four deputy admirals within it. The Wang Gonggong mentioned by Qin Wei is Wang An, one of the four deputy admirals.
As Emperor Li's eyes and ears outside the Imperial City, the Imperial City Division has always maintained a very mysterious veil. Few people know what is going on inside the Imperial City Division.
In fact, Qin Wei was also very curious about the internal situation of the Imperial City Department. Unfortunately, the department had no intention of inviting him in, so he could only stand outside and wait.
About ten minutes later, a chubby middle-aged eunuch ran out of the door.
"Haha, it turns out to be His Highness the County Prince. It is really our family's fault for keeping His Highness the County Prince waiting for so long. Please forgive me." Wang An said to Qin Wei with a smile on his face.
"My lord, you are joking. I have come here specifically to ask my lord for advice. I also ask your lord to give me some advice." Qin Wei's handsome face was filled with a gentle smile, like a humble gentleman.
Seeing him like this, Wang An's eyes narrowed to a slit, filled with surprise.
In recent days, Prince Xin'an has become a very popular figure in Kyoto. Although most people are just watching Prince Xin'an's jokes, no one can ignore the young man in front of them.
Wang An had never met Qin Wei before. He originally thought that Qin Wei was just a reckless young man, but when he saw him today, Qin Wei's behavior exceeded his expectations.
"Your Highness, please!"
"Is that okay?" Qin Wei asked with a smile.
"Of course, no one else can enter this Imperial City Department, only His Highness the Prince can enter!" Wang An said with a smile.
Qin Wei's lips curled up slightly and he said, "I didn't expect that this king would have such an honor!"
"As long as His Highness doesn't think our Imperial City Department is unlucky." Wang An said.
"Unlucky, haha, who else in the capital can be more unlucky than me now!"
Qin Wei stepped into the Imperial City with an elegant manner.
However, after entering the Imperial City Division, Qin Wei discovered that the Imperial City Division was not as mysterious as the outside world reported.
The building is not gorgeous and exquisite. It looks like an ordinary mansion. There are many young eunuchs and civil servants in long robes, and there are almost no warriors in sight.
Coming to a simple hall, Wang An said: "The Imperial City is simple and the reception is not good. Please don't pay attention to it."
Naturally, Qin Wei didn't care about this. He went straight to the subject and said, "I have a few things that I would like to ask your father-in-law for help with."
"Your Highness, please make it clear that as long as our family can do it, we will definitely do our best." Wang And said.
Qin Wei looked at him deeply and said: "First, I want detailed information about all the martial arts forces in Dali."
"Second, I want the stronghold locations and detailed personnel information of the major martial arts forces in Kyoto."
"Thirdly, I also want to know that they are involved with those noble princes and court ministers."
"Only for these three things, I wonder if the prince would be willing to help me?"
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight a hundred battles without danger.
If the Zhenwu Division wants to deter the forces of civilian warriors, it must first clarify the details of these forces.
However, it is not a simple matter to figure out the details of these forces, and it requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
Qin Wei was unable to do this in a short period of time.
But the Imperial City Division can do it.
"As long as His Highness needs it, the Imperial City Department's library of books can be copied by His Highness." Wang An said with a smile.
Now it was Qin Wei's turn to be a little surprised. He thought Wang An would refuse.
Wang An explained: "Eunuch Lu has already given instructions that His Highness will establish a Suppressing Military Division to share His Majesty's worries. Naturally, our Imperial City Division will fully cooperate."
"From now on, we will send a copy of all news from the civil society to the Zhenwu Division."
"In addition, His Highness can arrange for hundreds of scribes to come to our Imperial City Department to copy the classics. As long as His Highness needs them, they can copy them. However, I also hope that His Highness can understand that there are some rules that must be observed, otherwise it will be difficult for our family to do so."
Qin Wei suddenly realized that Eunuch Lu had already given the order.
And for Eunuch Lu to give such an order, Emperor Li must have given instructions behind it.
"I know the rules. I don't ask about things I shouldn't ask, and I don't read things I shouldn't read. I only copy the classics of the people's Jianghu forces and don't involve anything else." Qin Wei said with a smile.
"Your Highness is a sensible person!" Wang An praised.
Qin Wei smiled, looked at Li Ru next to him, and said, "Master Li, it's up to you to handle the meeting with the Imperial City Division yourself."
"I obey my orders!" Li Ru said.
The Imperial City Division is not a good place, and Qin Wei does not want to cause trouble in the Imperial City Division, so he can only leave the matter to Li Ru.
The next thing is simple. Currently, the Zhenwu Division does not have enough manpower to copy a large number of Imperial City Division's classics. However, you can first copy a copy of the Xueyilou's classics. As for the others, you can copy them later when needed.
After everything was arranged, Qin Wei left the Imperial City Division.
…
Late at night, the bright jade plate hangs under the heavy night curtain, spreading its cool brilliance.
The moonlight was scattered on the ground in the room through the vermilion carved wooden windows. Qin Wei was sitting on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, and his mind was already immersed in the Yitian chessboard.
After these few days of busy work, the framework of the Zhenwu Division has been initially set up. It is no longer as empty as before. Although the Zhenwu Division still does not show any power or deterrence, the Yitian chessboard still breeds countless people.
A little energy.
There are more than 300 new points of Shi Qi. Adding the previous more than 100 points of Shi Qi, Qin Wei currently has 438 points of Shi Qi.
Not a lot, but enough for him to improve his cultivation.
The predecessor originally had a third-grade martial arts cultivation level.
To upgrade from the third level to the fourth level, you only need to consume ten points of momentum, and then to the fifth level, you need 30 points, to the sixth level, you need 90 points, to the seventh level, you need 300 points, and to the eighth level, you need 900 points.
Qin Wei made a rough calculation and found that the energy needed to improve his own cultivation level was the same as that required for the chess characters to improve their cultivation level.
"It takes 430 points to upgrade to the seventh level, just right!"
Qin Wei's eyes lit up as he looked at the momentum slowly rotating around the chessboard.
A sixteen-year-old seventh-level warrior, if placed in the world, he would definitely be a rare genius in a century.
Qin Wei has no interest in becoming a genius. He only improves his cultivation level so that he can protect himself.
My family knows their own affairs.
High cultivation level does not mean strong fighting ability.
His predecessor was a fighting novice, and he had no fighting experience left with him, not to mention himself. He had only a handful of fights with people, let alone fights with real swords and guns.
Fighting is not his specialty, and for the time being, he has not thought about becoming a peerless warrior.
"Improve your cultivation first. If you encounter danger, you can at least run away."
Qin Wei was thinking in his mind while improving his cultivation level.
The next moment.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind in the house.
The curtains on the wooden frame of the bed swayed, and the burning candle light also swayed.
A faint cyan aura surrounded Qin Wei, slowly seeping into his body.
Qin Wei closed his eyes slightly and felt a sense of comfort sweeping through his body.
At this moment, his mind was extremely clear, and his whole body seemed to have received a baptism. His body was extremely relaxed, and his body that was originally a little sore became strong and strong.
At the same time, a strong flow of true energy emerged from his Dantian, and the true energy circulated through the meridians and acupoints throughout his body. Qin Wei felt as if he had undergone a transformation.
"This is the seventh-grade warrior!"
"So fast!"
Qin Wei was extremely surprised.
But the strong sense of power and surging vitality made him confirm that all this was not a delusion.
Qin Wei savored the taste carefully, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"It seems that I need to practice hard in the future!"
Martial arts is not just about cultivation, but also various combat skills, sword skills, knife skills, spear skills, etc.
If you want to become a warrior, you must have fighting skills, otherwise your cultivation will be in vain.
As for the skills, there is no shortage in the prince's palace. Even if the prince's palace does not have them, Qin Wei can borrow them from the royal family's sect.
As a member of the Dali royal family, there is no shortage of cultivation techniques.
The moonlight is like water and the candlelight is like silk, elegance and tranquility are projected into the house, making Qin Wei feel more comfortable.
