The night is as cool as water, but in the center of the world, the eastern capital of the empire, Angzhong, is still brightly lit, but the only difference is that there are many more patrol teams on the street than during the day, which is also inevitable. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After turning out of the palace wall, Jiang Chen no longer hid his figure, he knew that that person's secret agents were all over the city, and how he hid his figure would inevitably reveal clues, so it was better to act generously, so that anyone who wanted to be unfavorable to himself would be a little more jealous.

In charge of the Shadow Guard, anyone who wants to move Jiang Chen has to think twice, not only because of the elite of the Shadow Guard, but also a symbol of imperial power, only the emperor's most trusted person has the opportunity to take charge of the Shadow Guard, dare to attack such a person, without perfect preparation, in the end, it is only possible to get yourself a broken end. It can be said that Jiang Wuling gave Jiang Chen the command of the secret guard, not only gave Jiang Chen the actual administrative power, but also gave Jiang Chen a very powerful life-saving talisman, which shows that Jiang Wuling has a clear understanding of the struggle in the harem above the court.

It's just that these can only be effective after Jiang Chen successfully takes over the Shadow Secret Guard.

The total number of shadow guards is 8,400, all of whom are selected from the 13 million elites of the Han and Tang dynasties who have experienced a hundred battles. For the selection of personnel, the priority is even higher than that of the Imperial City Guards Tiger Ben Army. Among them, the lowest level of cultivation is a mid-level officer with the rank of five-fold captain, and the capital of the Lilai Shadow Secret Guard is all served by the Martial Saint. The Shadow Secret Guard is divided into two parts, the South Town Fu Division and the North Town Fu Division, and the North and South Town Fu Envoys are all responsible for the martial arts of the Nine Martial Arts. In addition, every 1,200 people of the shadow guards are divided into one battalion, a total of eight battalions, four battalions in the north and south, and the general flag envoy in the battalion is served by Wuhou. Among them, the North Town Fusi has four battalions under the jurisdiction of Tiger Roar, Black Dragon, Viper and Goshawk. Nanzhen Fusi has jurisdiction over four battalions: Langya, Lujiang, Feiyu and Zhenchuan. The Shadow Guard's forces are spread across the country, and they have their own independent intelligence and funding networks, specializing in all the Empire's covert operations, including assassinations, tortures, arrests, and so on. It is a force that must not be ignored, it is rumored that fifty years ago, the seven sect masters of the Seven Holy Gates of the Land of the Hundred Sects were all killed by the Shadow Guard, and it was this incident that made the Shadow Guard famous, and there was that sentence, like maggots attached to the bones, like a shadow, no one in the world could escape the pursuit of the Shadow Guard.

Jiang Chen gradually came to the outer city along the long bluestone-paved street, at this time, although the pedestrians on the street have decreased compared to the daytime, but they are still bustling, all kinds of peddlers and pawns are still selling on the street, and all kinds of people are also looking for their places one after another.

Although Jiang Chen's black tiger skin robe is gorgeous and full of majesty, coupled with Jiang Chen's tall figure and majestic momentum, it is very eye-catching in the crowd, but it has not caused much commotion, this is the eastern capital, there are countless princes and nobles, and the people of the eastern capital have long been surprised.

"Junlai Restaurant, what a cheesy name?" Jiang Chen stood in front of the door of a two-story restaurant, looked up at the plaque above, and muttered to himself lightly. Although it was already night, the business of this restaurant was very good, and it was bustling and very lively.

I have to say that this restaurant is very large, there are forty or fifty tables in the lobby on the first floor alone, all of them are full, and there are people eating meat and drinking in large bowls on each table, although it is lively but also very noisy.

As soon as Jiang Chen came in, a medium-sized and somewhat lean Xiao Si ran forward, put the towel on his body, nodded to Jiang Chen, and asked, "What do you need from the guest officer, eat or stay in the hotel?" Let me tell you......

Seeing that this Xiao Si was about to chatter, Jiang Chen glanced at him lightly, and a black token appeared in his hand, and then it was withdrawn by Jiang Chen.

"The guest officer wants a private room, we have a good private room on the second floor, absolutely quiet. That Xiao Si's reaction was also fast, and when he saw the token in Jiang Chen's hand, he didn't slack off, and hurriedly took Jiang Chen towards the second floor. Compared with the first floor and the second floor, it is much quieter, and obviously the sound insulation is also very good, and you can only faintly hear the hustle and bustle of the first floor.

There are not many people on the second floor, but Jiang Chen can feel that the few people sitting in the lobby on the second floor are not mediocre, and they are also characters who can be regarded as masters of martial arts, but they are really not enough compared to the people Jiang Chen has met in the past few days. Dead in Jiang Chen's hands, Wu Gong already had two people, and Wu Gong Dacheng's ghost thing also had two.

It's just that this second floor can only come up with people with a certain status, and the people on the first floor can only be regarded as a Murano puppet for Jiang Chen, although it seems that many people are tall and tall, and the weapons used on their bodies are also quite bluffing, but in terms of one-on-one heads-up, they may not be the opponent of an ordinary army sergeant in the Han and Tang Dynasties, at most they can only bully and bully ordinary people. Just now, Jiang Chen saw a man who looked like a violent bear, nearly a foot tall, standing up like a hill, with explosive muscles all over his body, holding two young, beautiful and bewitching concubines in the lobby on the first floor and talking with a group of rough men. Jiang Chen just sneered at the corner of his mouth, the ignorant are fearless, the man who is like a violent bear is also a fourfold martial arts cultivator, if in the Han and Tang Dynasty military ranks at most a low-level officer at the captain level, go into battle to cut people, but it is absolutely impossible for them to cultivate themselves, govern the country, Qi family, and level the world, all day long, for the border gates are uncertain and uneven, but only think of using knives to solve the problem by force, Jiang Chen can only sneer: "A bunch of idiots." "These people also confirmed Jiang Chen's words, they don't even have the qualifications to die in my hands.

On the second floor, Jiang Chen didn't have more people to notice, everyone on the second floor was very quiet, drinking quietly, and talking about things on the rivers and lakes in a whisper. Jiang Chen even saw a few chivalrous people who seemed to be famous for a long time in the rivers and lakes in his impression, one of them was dressed in white, fluttering like a fairy, and a beautiful boy with a four-foot ruyi sword at his waist, and he was known as the first person of the young generation in Lingnan. Jiang Chen can see that this person's martial arts cultivation has reached the sixth level of martial arts, which is not bad, but the name of the first person of the young generation in Lingnan is still boasting, if Jiang Chen is not mistaken, Guo Boji seems to be born in Lingnan, and the grade in his early thirties naturally belongs to the younger generation, if this person is the first person of the younger generation in Lingnan, then what is Guo Boji?

The young man obviously also felt Jiang Chen's gaze, and turned around to see Jiang Chen standing not far away looking at him. The figure shook suddenly, and he could feel that the gorgeously dressed and heroic young man in front of him had great strength, and just wanted to make a sound, Jiang Chen snorted coldly and followed Xiao Si away.

Xiao Si took Jiang Chen into a quiet private room, Jiang Chen walked in first, and Xiao Si followed in and looked at the door. Behind Jiang Chen's back, he knelt down and bowed: "The villain sees the adult, what do the adults command?"

Jiang Chen came to the window of the private room, opened the window, looked at the bustling street outside, and felt the coolness of the night breeze blowing in slightly: "Call your shopkeeper to me." "The voice was low, but it had an unmistakable majesty.

"Whew!" the little Si took the order and left.

It's not a very large private room, but it's very antique, and all the household utensils are made of the finest materials, and some of them are even hundreds of years old. It looks a little dim against the candlelight.

Standing at the window, Jiang Chen turned his back to the door, and after a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in. Jiang Chen said lightly.

The door opened, and a Humpty Dumpty man walked in: "The villain Ding Xie Niu knocks on the adult." After speaking, he knelt down and saluted Jiang Chen. ”

"Get up. Jiang Chen didn't turn back

"My lord, I don't know if there is a matter of please, forget my lord Haihan. Ding Xie Niu said cautiously behind Jiang Chen.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Chen asked.

Ding Xie Niu said: "Please show the token to the villain, and the adult also understands that this is necessary." ”

"Hmm. Jiang Chen took out the token and threw it backwards casually, at this time Ding Xie Niu had already stood up, caught the token, and just glanced at it. Then Jiang Chen only heard a dull loud bang behind him, which shook the window frame and door frame a little, Ding Jieniu knelt down again, only to hear Ding Jieniu tremble and say: "The villain doesn't know that Lord Dutong is coming, please punish the adult." ”

Jiang Chen waved his hand with his back to Ding Jieniu: "It's okay, you go and give it to me, Li Mu, the envoy of Beizhen, and Meng Wu, the general banner envoy of the Black Dragon Battalion, called and said that I was waiting for them here." ”

"It's a villain, so let's do it. Ding Xie Niu took the order and left, and carefully handed the token to Jiang Chen's hand before leaving.

This Junlai Restaurant is the property of Yingmiwei, and it is also a secret stronghold, and there are many such places in the whole world, but they are just big and small problems.

For the Shadow Guard, it is only a token and does not recognize people, unless you are the emperor in person, otherwise anyone without a token will not want to command the Shadow Guard, just like in addition to the emperor Jiang Wuling and King Taiding, so many princes and generals in the Han and Tang Dynasties, princes and Confucians, if there is no tiger talisman, they will not want to mobilize the local garrison.

This is a rule set by the ancestors, in order to prevent some people from supporting the army and self-respect, and finally raising tigers for trouble. After all, there have been many such things in history, and the Great Zhou Dynasty of the previous dynasty was finally destroyed because the princes of the later period supported troops and divided the feudal towns. Later, the survivors of the descendants of the Great Zhou royal family fought on the ruins of the Great Zhou Dynasty for decades before they pacified the world and established 300,000 miles of rivers and mountains in the Han and Tang dynasties.
