As he spoke, the emperor personally handed a token to Li Mu.

Li Mu took it in his hand and squeezed it hard, but there was no loss at all, and if he looked closely, he couldn't see what material was forged.

The front of the token is engraved with three big characters of the Xuanjing Division, and a few small characters, which are Li Mu, the deputy director of the department.

In the Xuanjing Division, of course, there is the Heavenly and Human Realm Division as the masters, but in the era when the Heavenly and Human Realms are not allowed to act easily, the eight half-step Deputy Divisions of the Heavenly and Human Realm are in power, that is, they control everything, and become the masters of the Xuanjing Division in the true sense, and the power is self-evident.

"Sure enough, I'm still here, and I've become the most annoying person for myself!" Li Mu sighed in his heart.

Six Doors, Xuanjing Division, etc., are equivalent to the secret agencies of the previous life, equivalent to the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, the People's ** Central Union, and the former Soviet KGB.

Li Mu still spoke: "The minister is a civil official!"

"Haha!" the emperor laughed: "If it is not a military merit, it is not allowed to be a marquis." You were canonized as a Peerless Marquis because of your half-step Heavenly Cultivation, and because you have to stay in the Xuanjing Division to prepare!"

Li Mu still said: "The minister is a civil official!"

The emperor said: "Literature is not as good as martial arts, this world is the world of warriors!"

Li Mu was speechless.

But that's exactly what happened.

The deputy director is from the third grade. If he relied on the path of Wenchen, Li Mu might be forty or fifty years old before he could get to this point, but now he has, but he is less than thirty, and he has done it.

"Obey the order!"

Li Mu said.

"The specific affairs have not been arranged for the time being, so you can go down and wait!" said the emperor.

Li Mu said: "The minister obeys the order!"

As he spoke, he slowly retreated.

............

In this way, Li Mu was temporarily promoted and became the deputy director, but he didn't know exactly how to do it.

Back in the mansion, Li Mu said his official position, and the emperor spoke, and asked again: "Next, what should I do?"

From the civil official system to the spy system, Li Mu was a little uncomfortable.

Hua Wuying was born in the Xuanjing Division, and he was born in the shadow lineage, but he was extremely familiar with all this, and said: "Great Zhou Taizu, the starting point of birth is very low, just a beggar, and he has a very hard life. Later, he joined the army in the chaos of war, experienced many battles to the death, and later made a fortune!"

After his career, he was recruited as a son-in-law by the leader of the rebel army at that time. Later, in the battle, the rebels were routed and the leader of the rebels was killed, and he fled with less than 2,000 soldiers, but also established an independent army. Later, the more he fought, the more powerful he became, his power continued to expand, his territory was also expanding, and he finally became emperor!"

He was embarrassed to find that he was really alone, he had no brothers, and there was only one villager, and there were very few relatives in Wufu, and the situation was very unfavorable to him, so he established six doors to monitor the rivers and lakes; later, he established the Xuanjing Division to monitor the civil and military affairs of the imperial court. Later, four major cases were created, and more than half of the heroes were cleaned!"

Hua Wuying is a real nobleman, familiar with some insiders of the Great Zhou Dynasty, some deep-seated secrets, and is talking about some unknown things at the moment.

Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a strange person, born from a beggar, but he is the emperor, and his ability can be called the top. But he was born from the grassroots and his background was too low, which led to his extremely sensitive personality, extreme self-esteem, and extreme inferiority.

The emperors of all dynasties have a family background, once they rebel, the clansmen go to the battlefield together, fight brothers, father and son soldiers, or have in-laws, or township party, hair and so on, and participate in it. Once the dynasty is at its peak, those relatives will become royalists, and the villagers will become royalists.

But the Great Zhou Taizu, after becoming the emperor, was embarrassed to find a phenomenon, he had no royal family, and there was no royalist.

Because, his parents have died a long time ago, and there are no brothers and younger brothers, even distant relatives do not exist, as for the fellow countrymen, there are only one or two, and several sons have not grown up, and there are more than a dozen righteous sons, which can be regarded as a weak royal lineage. The courtiers, on the other hand, were powerful and connected to each other.

The power of the ministers is too strong, and the imperial power is too weak.

So, there were six doors, and there was also the Xuanjing Division, in order to restrain the courtiers.

As for why there are two departments, there is also overlapping powers, mainly to restrain each other, fight with each other, and monitor each other.

If the Six Doors rebelled, the Xuanjing Division would suppress it; Even the six gates, the Xuanjing Division collectively mutinied, and there may be a third intelligence structure to make a move.

In this way, although the institutions overlap and there are many problems, how can you sleep peacefully at night without this.

"Then what should I do?" Li Mu asked, "What about my authority?"

Hua Wuying said: "You can take care of anything, or you can ignore anything, whether it is a celestial or a half-step celestial, it is mainly a deterrent, rarely make a move, unless it is a big thing, you must not make a move!"

Li Mu asked about some important things again, and Hua Wuying also said that the Xuanjing Division was set up specifically.

The Xuanjing Department is mainly responsible for honor guards, intelligence exploration, monitoring civil and military officials, arrest and interrogation, etc., and in some special operations, it can bypass local civil and military forces, directly carry out arrests, interrogations, etc., and have the power to cut first and then play.

In each county, in each state, there was a certain number of troops, and each county had three thousand men, and some states had twenty or thirty thousand.

In terms of numbers, it may not be as good as the local army, but it is also a force that cannot be ignored.

The Xuanjing Division has a huge intelligence structure, a huge number of informants, in various sects, forces, families, and some princes and nobles.

There are also independent property, independent small coffers, etc., which have formed a huge force.

............

The next day, under the leadership of Hua Wuying, Li Mu entered the headquarters of the Xuanjing Division in the capital.

At this point, there was no difficulty, but no one stuttered, everything was ordinary, as if eating and drinking.

Enter the Xuanjing Division, and some permissions are open to him.

Li Muke entered the library and flipped through some secret books, many exercises that are rare in the outside world can be found here.

"Sure enough, everyone is like a dragon, but in fact, there are also cats. Most of the exercises spread outside have a high entry threshold, such as the longevity formula; there are also some exercises with a low entry threshold and relatively low power, such as the Huashan Sword Technique and the Mixed Yuan Gong; and there are also some exercises that are self-created by the predecessors, and there are deficiencies, so they are spread out for experiments!"

"There are also exercises here, there are matching pills, and secret techniques, and the difficulty of cultivation is also decreasing!"

Flipping through the library, comparing the thief library and the Ningbo library, Li Mu immediately saw the gap.

Turned to a book called the Recipe for Longevity.

This exercise is the first exercise practiced by Li Mu, and in the Thief Library, Ningbo Library, that version of the longevity recipe is only a short 1,000 words.

But the version of the longevity recipe here is thousands of words.

There are 1,000 words of original text, and there are also some comments from the predecessors of the cultivation of longevity, telling about the introductory skills, cultivation misunderstandings, how to avoid them, etc., which is about more than 5,000 words.

Finally, there are three prescriptions to assist in the cultivation of longevity.

The first prescription, before cultivating, after taking the Innate Qi Sensing Pill, can keenly perceive the changes in the body, and after cultivating the longevity formula, the success rate of entry can be increased by one layer.

The second prescription, before cultivating, taking the Innate Nirvana Pill can give birth to a trace of innate true qi in the body, which can increase the success rate of two layers.

The third prescription, before cultivating, if you take the Daqian Creation Pill, your body will undergo a transformation, and the success rate of entry can increase by as much as three layers.

Looking at the luxurious version of the longevity formula, and then looking at the humble version, Li Mu understood what the gap between commoners and nobles was.

PS: The third update is up, and there will be an update later. Today is a hair together.
