On Moling Mountain, the branches and forks of the big trees are hung with thick snowflakes, which are like pieces of white coral under the sun, jade and ice, crystal clear.

Passing through the mountains and forests, among the snow-covered rocks, there is a mist rising.

In the snow, the spring water is boiling and clear, and the mountain stones are full of spiritual liquid, and the mist is flowing and cong.

A hot spring, a pavilion, two old men sit in the pavilion, the mist is swirling, spread on the ground, such as the aura of the fairy family, ethereal flying.

The two old men played against each other, and the crisp sound of falling children was endless.

Long.

Li Xun suddenly showed a hearty smile, "Haha, the old man won!" ”

"It's been more than thirty years, Old Man Lu, your chess skills are still so bad!"

Lu Qingfeng stroked his long beard, looked at the black and white chess pieces that were all over the chessboard, and said helplessly with his old face: "Compared with you, the old chess skills are indeed inferior. ”

Li Xun rolled up his sleeves and began to pick up the pieces on the chessboard.

"This time, the old man came to ask for something!"

The smile on his face retracted, and his expression became solemn.

"What?" Lu Qingfeng asked.

"The affairs of the court!" Li Xun said.

"The old man is just a mountain village man, but he can't control the affairs of the court." Lu Qingfeng said.

Li Xun took a light breath and said, "The old man doesn't want you to take care of the affairs of the court, but wants you to take care of the affairs of the Seven Yuan Sect." ”

Lu Qingfeng asked in surprise, "What do you mean?" ”

"Our Seven Yuan Sect has no disciples to go out of the mountain these years."

Li Xun was silent for a while, and said, "Gongyun Mountain is now in Jiangzhou!" ”

The six holy places of Dali, Beiyuan City, Nanmu City, Qiyuan Sect, Shangyuan Sect, Xiaoyao Island, Qingfeng Island.

Lu Qingfeng in front of him was the Great Elder of the Seven Yuan Sect, and Gong Yunshan in Li Xun's mouth was the Lord of the Three Islands of Xiaoyao Island.

"What is he here for?" Lu Qingfeng said with a frown.

Xiaoyao Island and Qingfeng Island have always lived far away, and they have close ties with many powers in the East and South China Seas, but they rarely come to Dali.

And once they come to Dali, they will inevitably set off some turmoil.

"What else can be done? It's nothing more than wanting to come back. Li Xun said.

Lu Qingfeng lowered his head thoughtfully.

Dali was built for more than 300 years, and before Dali, there was no Xiaoyao Island and Qingfeng Island in this world.

After the establishment of the Dali Dynasty, there were more Xiaoyao Island and Qingfeng Island in this world.

Because the people on Xiaoyao Island are the nobles of the previous dynasty, the people on Qingfeng Island are the disciples and grandchildren of the previous dynasty.

This is also the reason why Xiaoyao Island and Qingfeng Island have always hated Dali.

Now that Gongyun Mountain has returned to Dali, the purpose can be imagined.

"Isn't Your Majesty still there?" Lu Qingfeng said softly.

"But the prince won't last long!" Li Xun said in a deep voice.

Once the crown prince is killed, there will inevitably be a battle in the court.

And Lihuang is already old, and he doesn't know how many years he can last.

If Emperor Lihuang dies again, I am afraid that the world will be completely chaotic.

Lu Qingfeng was silent for a long time before he said, "Our Seven Yuan Sect will not interfere. ”

"But Shangyuan Sect will intervene!" Li Xun said.

"The old man can't control the Shangyuan Sect." Lu Qingfeng said.

"The world is in turmoil, and there are constant disputes, and the Seven Yuan Sect can't be left alone at all." Li Xun said.

Lu Qingfeng suddenly raised his head and looked at him with a smile.

"So what?"

Li Xun also looked at him, and there was no emotion in his deep eyes.

"The Seven Yuan Sect must stop the Shangyuan Sect."

The eyes of the two were intertwined, and a condensed atmosphere filled the eyes in the dense mist, and the mist rolled and rose in all directions.

After a long time, Lu Qingfeng suddenly smiled and said, "Old decay can't guarantee it. ”

"The old man knows."

"But the old man still wants to say that this time the Seven Yuan Sect can't hide."

Li Xun put the chess pieces in his hand in the chess box.

Lu Qingfeng stood up, his wide clothes shrouding his emaciated, withered body.

"We'll talk about it then!"

"Now the old decay can't give you any promises, and can't make any decisions."

Li Xun bowed slightly, and also stood up.

He stretched his waist and said as if he didn't care: "There are some opportunities that need to be grasped, and if you miss them, you miss them." ”

"Just like it was more than thirty years ago!"

When Lu Qingfeng heard this, his face was slightly embarrassed.

More than thirty years ago, before the Shangwu Order was issued, Li Xun had come to woo the Seven Yuan Sect.

However, at that time, the Seven Yuan Sect refused, so for more than thirty years, the Seven Yuan Sect could only retreat in the deep mountains and old forests.

They may not like mundane chores, but they definitely don't like to be isolated either.

Some things look beautiful, but in reality they are just forced to be helpless.

"Gone!"

"I hope that next time we meet, we can still play chess!"

Li Xun chuckled at Lu Qingfeng, and his old body trembled and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.

Lu Qingfeng looked at his figure that looked like it would fall at any time and sighed.

"This old thing is getting more and more treacherous!"

……

Inside Tianzhou City.

Qin Wei had already moved into the Yunyan Pavilion, and at the same time, the officials of the Seven Great Sects had also taken office.

Xuanhuang, Wensu and others stood in the main hall wearing official robes.

Qin Wei sat on the main seat, looking at the full hall of officials, the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

Although there are still many officials and soldiers in the martial arts division of Tianzhou Town, this shelf can be regarded as being erected.

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to Your Majesty's requirements, we still need to establish eight thousand household divisions, which means that we need eight thousand soldiers!"

"Next, this king wants to select disciples from the major sects to enrich the Zhenwu Division, what do you think?"

Qin Wei said slowly.

Xuanhuang, Wen Su and the others looked slightly moved.

"Your Highness, the disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect can be chosen by Your Highness." Xuanhuang was the first to speak.

Wen Su also followed up and said, "The Heavenly Master Mansion can also provide some elite disciples. ”

"There are three thousand disciples in the Luoxia Sect!"

"Lishan Sword Sect~~"

Everyone expressed their opinions.

This is a good thing for them, now that they have boarded the thief ship of Zhenwuji, it is almost impossible to get down.

Instead of thinking about going down, it is better to do your best to occupy an advantageous position within the Zhenwu Division.

Qin Wei waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this king knows your loyalty to the court, but you can't affect the inheritance and cultivation of the various sects for the sake of the Zhenwu Division." ”

"Each sect is a very precious resource for the court, the sect cultivates outstanding warriors for the court, and the court protects the interests of the sect, which is complementary to each other."

"And for the orderly development of the many sects in Tianzhou, this king decided to select three hundred, one hundred, or fifty disciples according to the size of the sect."

"There are more than a hundred sects in Tianzhou, but this time Zhenwu Si only selects disciples from ninety sects."

"That is, there are ten sects that select 300 disciples, 20 disciples of 100 disciples, and 60 of 50 disciples."

"All the sects that accept the selection of the Zhenwu Division can purchase properties in the state capital, the prefecture city, and the county seat, and those who do not accept it are not allowed to purchase any property in the name of the sect, including fields."

"And the sects that accept the selection will be supervised by the Zhenwu Division, and they must not do anything that violates the Dali Code. Once discovered, the light one will be investigated and dealt with according to the law, and the heavy one will confiscate all the properties of the sect and be punished by the sect! ”

Qin Wei's voice echoed in the main hall, making everyone's hearts tremble and uneasy.

Although Qin Wei didn't say it in detail, they knew very well what Qin Wei was going to do.

Qin Wei wanted to lock up all the sects in Tianzhou in the cage of the Zhenwu Division.

After Qin Wei finished speaking, everyone bowed their heads and remained silent.

Once it is implemented according to what Qin Wei said, then these sects will completely lose their autonomy in the future.

Zhenwu Si can even meddle in the internal affairs of their sect.

"Your Highness, the lower official has something to understand." Xuan Huang said suddenly.

"What?" Qin Wei asked with a calm face.

"The sect is under the supervision of the Zhenwu Division, what should be done if the Zhenwu Division is unfair?" Xuanhuang Road.

He wasn't against Qin Wei, he was just afraid that Zhenwu Si would come.

The reason why the warriors of the rivers and lakes look down on the court officials is because the court officials engage in fraud, abuse power for personal gain, and bend the law for bribes.

Within the official office, there are countless filthy people.

For such an official, no one will like it.

Qin Wei said with a smile: "Isn't it up to you to decide whether the Zhenwu Division is unfair or not?" ”

Xuanhuang was slightly stunned!

That's right!

They are now officials of the Zhenwu Division, and how the Zhenwu Division handles things in the future depends entirely on themselves.

"Again, Zhenwu Division will not wipe out all the sect forces, Zhenwu Division will only make the sect in Tianzhou develop in a more orderly manner."

"This king will not stop you from growing stronger, but you must be attached to the court."

"You should understand that!"

Qin Wei said again.

"Xia Guan understands!" Xuanhuang nodded and said.

Qin Wei continued: "Actually, you can think about it from a different angle. ”

"Letting the disciples of the sect join the Zhenwu Division means that the Zhenwu Division provides a way for martial artists to enter the officialdom."

"In the future, the children of your various sects can not only serve as officials in Tianzhou Town, but also go to other states, even to Kyoto."

"Well, you guys are equivalent to acting in the Martial Pavilion!"

"Martial Pavilion!" Everyone's eyes lit up.

Yanwu Pavilion is a place to train martial artists for the court, and if you follow Qin Wei's statement, they seem to have a lot of similarities with Yanwu Pavilion.

"That doesn't seem like a bad thing!" Cheng Moshen said softly.

The reason why the sect always opposes the imperial court is because of the inaction of the imperial court, and secondly, because they cannot integrate into the imperial system.

The life or death of the imperial court has nothing to do with them, even if they cultivate to a high level, it is impossible for them to become officials of the imperial court.

They may be able to use the army, and the army pays more attention to cultivation, but in the army, they are subject to too many restrictions, and it is difficult for military attachés and generals with a sect background to be reused.

The reason why Qin Wei wanted to give the sect a chance to be an official was that he felt that these sect martial artists should be reused.

Not only the martial artists of the sect, but also the folk martial arts families, ordinary casual cultivators, and the Zhenwu Division will recruit them in the future.

There are many masters and talents among the martial artists in the rivers and lakes.

Rather than letting these warriors become idle people in society, it is better to let him enter the Zhenwu Division, enter the army, and even enter the court.

As long as they become officials, they are bound by the rules of officialdom.

"Do you have any other questions?" Qin Wei asked.

"No more!" Everyone hurriedly said.

"That's good!"

Qin Wei nodded with a smile and said, "Next, I want to trouble you to send the policies of the Zhenwu Division to those sects." ”

"This king only gives them half a month, if they are willing to accept the selection of disciples by the Zhenwu Division, as well as the supervision of the Zhenwu Division, then let them come to the Zhenwu Division to report as soon as possible."

"Tell them that the number of places is limited, and if they are late, they will not be there."

He could have allowed every sect to join the Zhenwu Division, but he still only kept ninety places.

This means that there will be twenty or thirty sects in Tianzhou that will not be able to join the Zhenwu Division.

If you don't accept the supervision of the Zhenwu Division, you can't buy an industry.

Without industry, there is no silver, no resources.

If a sect has no resources, how can it last for a long time?

Moreover, Qin Wei will also ask the Zhenwu Division to introduce some policies in the future, such as limiting the number of disciples recruited by the sect, requiring all Jianghu martial artists to register in the Zhenwu Division, and so on.

Sooner or later, one day Qin Wei will squeeze out all those sects that are unwilling to give in.

If the quota is not enough, it will make those sects have a sense of urgency.

"Whoa!" The people answered.

Then, Qin Wei asked everyone to retreat.

Next, we have to look at the choices of these sects in Tianzhou.

If they follow Qin Wei's requirements, they will still be able to pass it on, and they will grow stronger in the future.

Otherwise, they can only be gradually eaten away by the Zhenwu Division, and then disappear completely.

After everyone left, Qin Wei summoned Wang An again.

"Let the people of the Imperial City Division keep an eye on it, lest someone make small moves behind their backs."

"The old slave obeys!" Wang Andao.

This step can be said to be the most important step, as long as this step can be completed, then the rivers and lakes of Tianzhou will be the world of Zhenwusi.

Therefore, Qin Wei would never allow anyone to jump out and sabotage his plan at this time.

As Xuanhuang and Wensu left the Yamen of the Zhenwu Division, letters floated out of Tianzhou City one after another and were sent towards more than 100 sects in Tianzhou.
