Chu Li sat in the hall, listened to their report, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing. It's a hot potato. It would be best for Mei Yiyuan to fight for it. Maybe this is Centurion Chen's good intentions."
"Could Centurion Chen be so kind?" Qin Jin shook his head and said, "He believes in the spirit of Sirius. He wants to grab everything and will never let go of merit. Last time, he suffered a defeat. This time, he is looking at the influence of the Duke's Mansion.
, so I grabbed it."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows: "Is that so?"
Qin and Jin all nodded.
Qin Jin said: "Centurion, we can't give in anymore this time, we must take it back!"
"My identity is too sensitive to investigate this case." Chu Li shook his head.
"Then we have to do another thing!" Qin Jin said: "The Ministry of War is going to conduct an investigation."
Chu Li frowned.
"Last time, everyone was panicked about Yuan Wailang's incident. If we investigate again, he will really become the public enemy of all the courtiers." Qin Jin sighed: "This matter is much more difficult than investigating the Duke's mansion. It will offend too many people."
Feng Jing snorted and said, "I guess Chen Donghai was afraid of doing this, so he stole the mission of investigating the Duke's Mansion."
Chu Li touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "The Ministry of War wants to investigate carefully. This is not a trivial matter."
"This matter is too serious." Qin Jin said, "I'm afraid the commander won't let the centurion go."
This time the centurion made a great contribution, and the credit was shared among the entire Mei Eryuan. Even if he did nothing this year, he would still be well off.
After several events, the centurion stood out, and his outstanding talent eclipsed the dozen or so centurions in the Secret Guard House. The rest of the centurions were mostly cautious and prudent, and would rather not do anything than make a mistake.
The two things this time are extremely difficult and extremely difficult. The investigation by the centurions, who are sullen and do not seek merit but only fault, does not know how long it will take. What these two things require is to cut through the mess with a sharp knife and with extraordinary skills.
Talent.
Chen Donghai is both talented and ambitious. It is not difficult to grab one thing, but the other thing may fall to the centurion.
After all, the investigation of the Jiguo Duke's Mansion is a government palace. There are twelve Dukes' Mansion in Daji, but the investigation of the Ministry of War is a department, and it will offend a lot of people.
Chu Li pondered for a moment and said: "Go and have a look, you can't keep putting it off."
He and the four of them came to the Secret Guard Mansion.
Before entering the mansion, Chen Donghai and six secret guards came out of the gate. When he saw Chu Li, Chen Donghai suddenly smiled.
He came forward, cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Centurion Chu."
Chu Li cupped his fists and returned the salute: "Where is Centurion Chen going?"
"Alas..." Chen Donghai shook his head and said, "I am born to work hard, so I have to go to the Duke of Ji's Mansion."
Chu Li smiled and said: "Is it to investigate the Jiguo Duke's Mansion?"
"Exactly." Chen Donghai said: "Last time I accepted the favor of Centurion Chu, and I reciprocated the favor. Knowing that you were born in the Duke of Ji's Palace, it would be embarrassing for the Duke of Ji's Palace to investigate, so I took the initiative to take over."
When Chu Li saw him, his thoughts were completely different.
Going to investigate the Duke of Ji's Mansion will not only gain military merit, but also avoid offending too many courtiers. After all, these courtiers have so many gangs, and there will be a stumbling block somewhere, causing people to suffer unspeakably.
Chu Li nodded with a smile: "Thank you, Commander Chen. However, it is not so easy for Duke Ji's Mansion to investigate. The Duke's Mansion has always been at odds with the Secret Guard Mansion, so Commander Chen Baifu must be prepared to suffer."
"Haha..." Chen Donghai said with a smile: "No matter how arrogant the Duke's Palace is, they can't do anything to our Secret Guard Palace. I believe we can check everything to see if there is any problem with the Duke's Palace!"
Chu Li cupped his fists and said, "Then I wish Centurion Chen all the best!"
"Haha, I accept the auspicious words of Centurion Chu!" Chen Donghai clasped his fists, laughed, and led the people away.
Watching his leaving figure, Chu Li shook his head and smiled.
This time Chen Donghai learned his lesson and didn't betray him in front of others, lest people say he was ungrateful. Instead, he was doing something underhanded.
Chu Li secretly smiled, it was easier for him to deal with underhanded tactics. Others often thought he didn't know, but he did know, and in order to prevent him from knowing, he restrained himself and needed many scruples to give him the advantage.
Qin Jin snorted: "This guy is so shameless!"
Chu Li smiled and said: "Mr. Qin, just wait and watch the fun. It's not so easy to enter the Jiguo Duke's mansion."
The Duke's Mansion is both disdainful and resentful of the Secret Guard Mansion. They will never let the Secret Guard Mansion investigate. Instead, they will attack secretly. Even if they don't kill them, they won't make them feel better. A severe beating will be considered light.
Qin Jin smiled and said: "Chen Donghai is quite capable. I guess Duke Ji's government won't be able to resist him."
Chu Li shook his head and smiled.
He came to the hall of the Secret Guard Mansion, and only Xu Huande was there.
Chu Li clasped his fists: "Commander Xu and Centurion Chen are going to investigate the Jiguo Duke's Mansion, so they won't leave the affairs of the Ministry of War to me, right?"
"You should rest first." Xu Huande said, "I will leave this matter to Ju Yiyuan."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows: "You don't need me?"
"It's not a good thing that you are too popular. You should hide for a while." Xu Huande said: "Go to seclusion and practice martial arts. I almost died this time. I still haven't mastered martial arts yet. Keep practicing."
Chu Li was surprised and a little moved.
He could tell that Xu Huande was sincere and was not trying to suppress himself.
Xu Huande said: "Once you are a secret guard, you will always be a secret guard. The days to come will be long. It would be a pity if someone killed you because your martial arts skills are not strong enough."
"Thank you very much, Commander Xu, for your concern." Chu Li clasped his fists and said, "However, the matter of the Ministry of War is very troublesome. If it is delayed for a long time, it will cause people to panic and complain, which is not a good thing for our Secret Guard Mansion."
"There is nothing we can do about it." Xu Huande sighed: "The Ministry of War has simply become a sieve. If we don't check it carefully, we will be in big trouble when using troops in the future."
"...I'll do it." Chu Li said in a deep voice.
Xu Huande frowned and said, "You still want to make meritorious deeds?"
Chu Li said: "Yes, since I want to practice in seclusion, I'd better earn more credit to prevent the people from Mei Eryuan from suffering after me."
"They are enjoying themselves enough!" Xu Huande snorted.
The credit of Mei's First Hospital was shared among more than 100 people, while Mei's Second Hospital only had 14 people, a tenfold difference.
He vaguely understood that Chu Li wanted to share their worries, and such a subordinate was really likeable.
In fact, both he and Fu Mengshan knew that it was appropriate to leave the matter of the Ministry of War to Chu Li. Chu Li was born in the Tianling Academy and was the best at purging traitors. The past purges of the disciples of the Guangming Sect had fully proved his power.
The Wei Mansion is unparalleled.
But for the sake of the future, I still don’t want Chu Li to be put in danger.
Now Chu Li is regarded as the trump card of the Secret Guard Mansion, and his intelligence and talent are not the second choice. They are preparing to train him to be their successor.
With Chu Li in charge of the Secret Guard House, the Secret Guard House will be more prosperous and they can enjoy their old age in peace.
With this calculation in mind, they were not in a hurry to exploit Chu Li's abilities. Instead, they would use it slowly and focus on practicing martial arts first. The investigation of the military department was too publicity and he should not do it again.
Chu Li said: "After I finish this matter, I will prepare to practice in seclusion."
He really planned to practice hard to avoid being caught up by Fang Qingyang.
Fang Qingyang has cultivated the Great Light Body, which is stronger than him. His level of Heavenly Demon Kung Fu is too low, and he needs to advance the White Tiger Yang Refining Diagram to another level.
