Hearing Li Xun's words, Li Jiuyuan's face changed greatly, and he immediately knelt on the ground: "My subordinates are derelict in their duties, and I ask the marshal to give my subordinates a chance to atone for their sins." ”

Li Xun said coldly: "You have followed me for many years and have been loyal, for this point, I will give you a chance, but whether you can catch it or not, it depends on you." ”

Li Jiuyuan said loudly: "My subordinates will do their best to never disappoint the handsome." ”

"Get up."

"Xie Dashuai."

Li Xun glanced at Li Jiuyuan, and said lightly: "I know your relationship with him, but a mistake is a mistake, and if there is a mistake, you have to admit it, if you can't bear to do it, you can hand it over to others, but the source of this evil, you must immediately extinguish it, I, Li Xun, developed the secret guard, just to protect myself, not to do those things that oppress the weak, if the secret guard does such bad things that lose humanity, then there is no need to exist, do you understand my words?" ”

Li Jiuyuan nodded, and said silently: "The subordinates understand what the marshal meant, and I will never do any more personal things in the future." ”

The development of the secret guard has become quite large today, and the various systems have gradually become more formal and serious.

The dark guard was first established, because of the needs of development, Liu Xie could only recruit a large number of rangers he was familiar with, this kind of people, regardless of good or evil, their initial needs were to compete fiercely and become famous, so they took refuge in the children of the gate valve family to seek financial returns.

Like Li Jiuyuan, after entering the secret guard, because he was the first batch, and because of Liu Xie, the starting point was very high, and he was soon reused and promoted, so after having a certain achievement, Li Jiuyuan completely abandoned his former bad habits, worked hard to read and write, and was kind to people, not making easy moves, this is the general trend, if you don't change, you can only be eliminated, a person who does a lot of evil, any person in a higher position, I'm afraid he won't like it.

Li Xun handed over the secret guard to Sima Tu to take care of, and after Sima Tu took over, the first thing he did was to carry out internal rectification.

After a few years, the atmosphere of the entire secret guard suddenly changed greatly, such things as indiscriminate killing of innocents, internal lynching, often heavier than the official sentence, but no matter what, there are still some bastards who can't change their shit, for such people, no matter how much credit they have made, how deep their connections are, Sima Tu has never shown favoritism, and pressed to the end.

The management of the dark guard, Li Xun has been handed over to Sima Tu to deal with, this time the county matter, the offender is named Li Hongliang, is the son of Li Jiuyuan's third uncle, the two are cousins, the blood is extremely close, at the same time Li Hongliang is also the first to enter the dark guard of the group of old people, in the process of the development and growth of the dark guard, he has made a lot of great contributions, he has a very deep relationship in the dark guard, and the popularity is also excellent, but the virtue is not good, excellent wine, for this to do a lot of out-of-the-ordinary things, as early as two years ago, is already the eighth leader of the secret guard, after Sima Tu took over, he vigorously rectified the internal order of the secret guard, Li Hongliang bore the brunt of the attack, and was suppressed badly, if it weren't for the merits and qualifications, Sima Tu would have had the intention to kill him Liwei.

After the outbreak of the Tongxian incident, Sima Tu's original intention was to do official business and impose capital punishment on Li Hongliang, but there was great resistance, there were many people who pleaded for mercy, and Li Jiuyuan, who was in charge of the criminal law, was also indecisive for a long time.

Li Xun finally said to Li Jiuyuan: "You can do it boldly, if anything happens, I will help you bear it, you don't need to worry about the back road, and I will let Chen Heng help you safely, the opportunity has been given to you, I hope you don't let me down." ”

Li Jiuyuan nodded, saying that he would never let Li Xun down, and at the same time, he also understood that Li Xun sent Chen Hengan to help him, which was also a warning, if he didn't do well, his position would be replaced by Chen Hengan.

Not long after Li Jiuyuan left, Sima Tu arrived and asked with a smile: "Lord, everything is settled?" ”

Li Xun glanced at Sima Tu and said dissatisfiedly: "I've been annoyed enough lately, you still push such troubles to me, do you want people to live?" ”

Sima Tu smiled bitterly: "Lord, I am just in charge of the secret guard, I can only say that it is a fox and a fake tiger, if I commit public anger because of this, I am afraid that I will not be able to manage this secret guard in the future, and I don't have the intention to push it to the lord to deal with it." ”

Li Xun didn't say much, and he naturally knew the reason clearly.

Seeing that Li Xun didn't speak, Sima Tu leaned over and said in a low voice: "The forces of the secret guard in Longyou and the Western Regions have been divided and isolated, and they are divided into two parts, one of which is managed by Liu Xie, and the leader of the other part, its candidate, please also ask the lord to make it clear." ”

Listening to Sima Tu's words, Li Xun was silent.

The alliance between the Beijiang Society and the Secret Guard, the purpose, Li Xun has already understood, Zhao Xun is obviously ready to use the hand of the Beijiang Society to swallow the Secret Guard, but he can't do it openly, Li Xun naturally doesn't want to give up the secret guard he worked so hard to create, so he has begun to fight back, and like Zhao Xun's concerns, Li Xun also can't do it openly.

Therefore, Li Xun subdivided Longyou's secret guard force into two parts again, pushing all the forces of the Beijiang Society into the Western Regions, while Longyou was completely independent and did not allow the people of the Beijiang Society to interfere in it.

Li Xun pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Since I handed over the secret guard to you, you can do it freely, if there is any suitable candidate, you can decide for yourself, you don't need to ask me." ”

Sima Tu nodded and didn't say more.

More than 60 miles north of Fengjing, there are mountains and rivers here, the environment is elegant, the feng shui is quite good, it is a good place to choose the tomb, of course, that is, for ordinary people, the real powerful and wealthy, its cemetery will not be here, people are like this, no matter when they are alive, or after they die, what kind of origin and status, there will be a corresponding level, even the cemetery is like this, there is a little wealth in Beijing, or people with an average official position, they will choose here.

On the side of a hidden mountain, a very small tomb, this cemetery looks ordinary, anyone who looks at it will think, this is also the cemetery of ordinary people, but if you come closer, see the name on the tombstone, you will be shocked, the words on it, but it is an era and glory.

This ordinary tomb belongs to Yang Daosi, the Yang family, as the first wealthy family in the world, naturally has the best cemetery in feng shui, but Yang Daosi was buried in the sea of fire, belonging to a horizontal death, ominous, such a person, the rules of the Yang family, regardless of status, can only be buried intermittently, otherwise it will bring disaster to future generations.

In front of the grave, there stood a thin old man with white hair, this person was the one who had fought with Yang Daosi all his life, the former military department Shangshu, and the left minister Liu Ji.
