Liver into a martial arts legend: starting with Embroidered Spring Blade

Chapter 46: The Second in Command of the East Factory, Cao Shaoqin! [Seeking monthly ticket for follow-up reading]

The next day.

As expected, the news that a top master had emerged from the Northern Pacification Division quickly spread throughout the entire Jinyiwei, and even ordinary people heard about it.

Once this news came out, it shocked countless people.

Although the top masters are not considered to be very powerful characters in the martial arts world, there are even many powerful people in the capital. A master who can defeat a hundred people will not attract many people's attention.

But top masters are so rare.

The conditions for becoming a top master are extremely harsh. One must practice sword moves before opening the Ren and Du meridians, and the sword moves must be practiced based on the basics.

Just these two conditions have already discouraged countless people.

Therefore, there are many innate masters in the world, but top masters are extremely rare.

After all, no matter what it is, it is valuable because it is rare.

Naturally, many people would be interested in such a rare and outstanding master.

Another major reason is that Jiang Xuan is too young.

At only twenty years old, he had already become a top master.

This means that this person not only has strong perseverance, but also has a strong talent for martial arts. With a little training, he will definitely be able to reach a higher level of martial arts in the future.

In this world, low-level warriors do not have a high status.

Because even if he is a master in the innate realm, he can be easily surrounded and killed as long as enough people are mobilized, and it is not that difficult to achieve the innate realm.

Even within the imperial court, there were many innate masters.

But once you reach the Grandmaster level or above, your status will be different.

Because a martial artist at the master level can at least deal with two to three hundred people, and the more powerful ones can even fight against a thousand people. Even if they can't win, they can come and go freely and escape calmly. They can be regarded as powerful.

In the military, it can determine the outcome of a small war.

Even if you accept him as your retainer, your own safety can be greatly guaranteed.

But those masters who have been famous for a long time are all arrogant and proud. They are either knights who travel around the world and are not interested in fame and fortune at all, or they are the leaders of first-class sects. Who would be willing to work for others?

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to recruit a master as a disciple.

But it would be different if you train them yourself, and their loyalty would be guaranteed.

For a time, undercurrents surged within the capital.

Many people have set their sights on this new top master with great martial arts talent.

Xinwangfu.

After learning about this, Zhu Youjian became even more determined to recruit Jiang Xuan.

"Wang Chengen!"

Zhu Youjian looked at the old butler beside him and said in a deep voice, "There has been no news from Xu Panxing. Why don't you ask him what's going on? If all else fails, take the token from Prince Xin's Palace and go to him in person."

Wang Chengen looked troubled and said, "Your Highness, this man has shown such a high talent for martial arts that the East Factory must have been keeping an eye on him. If we try to contact him during this period, I'm afraid we'll alert the enemy..."

"I don't want to hear your nonsense!"

Zhu Youjian said impatiently: "I only know that there is no one available under my command at the moment!"

"Then why was Wei Zhongxian so rampant? Because he had a master who was protecting him personally, so he wasn't afraid of assassination attempts."

"If I had such a master protecting me, why would I have to hide in this palace every day and live a miserable life, not daring to go anywhere?"

"No matter what, at any cost, I must make him serve the king!"

Wang Chengen sighed inwardly and nodded in agreement: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will remember this."

……

Jiang Xuan naturally didn't know about the reactions of all parties.

Just like every other day, he came to Beisi to report for duty.

But what was different from previous days was that he was not alone today, there was someone with him.

At this moment, Ding Xiu returned to his previous cynical and dissolute appearance, carrying a large royal sword that was almost taller than his shoulders. He looked here and there, looking like he had never seen the world.

Of course, for ordinary people, it is indeed rare to come to the Northern Pacification Office.

After all, here is an imperial prison that terrifies countless rebels and even high-ranking officials.

"grown ups!"

As soon as they entered the yamen, Xu Longqing and Lu Jianxing came to greet them. When they saw Ding Xiu following Jiang Xuan, they looked a little confused.

Only Jin Yichuan behind Lu Jianxing knew the truth, but his identity could not be revealed at the moment, so he could only pretend to be ignorant and did not dare to greet his senior brother.

Jiang Xuan said calmly, "This is the expert I recruited. Take him to register and change clothes. Let him become a strongman first."

"what?"

Ding Xiu's eyes widened. "Sir, are you kidding me? With my strong skills, I should be at least a small flag, not a general flag? Even a low-level warrior?"

Among the Jinyiwei soldiers, their status from high to low is Han general, captain and strongman.

The Han general sounds very powerful, but he is actually a palace guard who is responsible for guarding the imperial palace and serving as a guard of honor.

The ones who were actually responsible for investigating the case were the captains and strongmen, who were collectively called "Tiqi" when they went out on missions.

However, only the captains were officially employed in the Jinyiwei. They had to have a clean family background for three generations and pass a rigorous entry assessment before their files could be recorded and handed over to the Southern Division for management, and they would receive a monthly salary.

Most of these people are hereditary. Once someone dies in the line of duty, a replacement will be chosen from his family. If there is really no one left, they will be recruited again for assessment.

The wrestlers had no records and were not required to work. They were like external employees, hired to help when needed, doing the dirty work, and left to do their own thing when not needed. Despite the low status of the wrestlers, many people wanted to become wrestlers but had no way to do it.

With Ding Xiu's strength, being a strongman would be a waste of his talent, but Jiang Xuan does not have the ability to get him a formal captain file for the time being.

Ding Xiu would not have been able to pass the assessment just because of his three generations of clean family background, otherwise Jin Yichuan would not have had to impersonate him.

If this matter were to be discovered, Jiang Xuan himself would be implicated, so there was no need to take the risk for the time being.

"For now, it's good enough to be a wrestler."

Jiang Xuan ignored Ding Xiu's complaints and looked at Xu Longqing and said, "Take him to change his clothes."

"Yes, sir!" Xu Longqing didn't ask any more questions and turned away with Ding Xiu.

Jiang Xuan turned to look at Lu Jianxing and the others and ordered, "Everything remains the same."

"Yes!"

Everyone bowed and then turned to enter the yamen to start the roll call.

Jiang Xuan was preparing to go to Xu Xianchun to say hello and see if there was any errand to be done today.

The Northern Pacification Office is different from the five core offices. They are assigned tasks by drawing lots every day. Unless there are no cases, they will patrol the streets and be responsible for public security.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the lobby, Jiang Xuan felt that the atmosphere today seemed a little different.

He looked up and his expression changed slightly.

Xu Xianchun, who was supposed to sit in the main seat, was now standing below with his hands folded, just like the other captains.

In addition, there were several eunuchs from the East Factory in the crowd.

Sitting in the main seat was a young man wearing a white python robe.

This man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a distinct facial contour, and a bold and sharp gaze, revealing an overbearing and indifferent aura.

Seeing Jiang Xuan walk in, his domineering gaze instantly swept over him, making people feel cold.

"Your humble servant greets you, sir!"

Jiang Xuan didn't think much about it, retracted his gaze, and walked forward to salute politely.

Xu Xianchun quickly reminded him, "Captain Jiang, this is Eunuch Cao from the East Factory. Hurry and salute!"

It was him!

Jiang Xuan suddenly realized.

The East Factory was extremely powerful and had influence over the government and the country, controlling all power inside and outside the country.

There were five tigers in literature, five tigers in martial arts, as well as ten dogs, ten children, forty grandchildren and others who helped Wei Zhongxian control the government.

As for the East Factory, in addition to many heads, foremen, and office managers, there are also three big bosses in power, who have recruited many masters and are the strongest henchmen.

The big boss Zhao Jingzhong, Wei Zhongxian's most beloved adopted son, is arrogant, domineering, cruel and vicious.

The second-in-command, Cao Shaoqin, has a domineering and strong personality and does not submit to anyone except Wei Zhongxian.

The most important thing is that this person is also a martial arts fanatic. It is said that he had entered the innate realm many years ago. Wei Zhongxian trusted him very much.

As for the third-in-command Liu Xi, he is more introverted and steady, and is not very famous in the East Factory.

If nothing unexpected happens, this person is the second-in-command Cao Shaoqin.

No wonder he has such a fierce aura.

Jiang Xuan collected his thoughts, clasped his fists and bowed to Cao Shaoqin, saying, "I, Jiang Xuan, greet Eunuch Cao."

Cao Shaoqin looked at him with disdain and said calmly, "Are you Jiang Xuan, the one who mastered the sword moves yesterday and broke through to the super first-rate realm?"

"It is my humble servant." Jiang Xuan said respectfully.

Cao Shaoqin studied him carefully for a moment and chuckled, "It's said he's on par with top-notch masters. That's nothing surprising, Cao Tian. Exchange a few moves with him and show me just how powerful a top-notch master can be."

"Yes, boss!" A man immediately walked out from the crowd, with a vicious look in his eyes and a black mole between his eyebrows.

Jiang Xuan's expression changed slightly, and he said hurriedly, "How dare I compare my humble tricks with yours, my lord? I will not embarrass myself in front of you."

"We'll know whether we can fight or not only after we fight!" Cao Tian's eyes were bright and full of fighting spirit.

"That's all."

Cao Shaoqin spoke in a feminine tone, waved his hand and said, "If he doesn't want to fight, forget it."

"Thank you, eunuch." Jiang Xuan felt relieved.

"You Jinyiwei are the dogs raised by our Dongchang, and this Zhenfusi is the dog cage of the Dongchang. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you must serve the court and our Dongchang."

Cao Shaoqin said with an arrogant look: "Leave the capital with me in three days and let me see what this dog of yours can do."

Hearing Cao Shaoqin's disdainful tone, Xu Xianchun and others on the side looked a little unhappy, but thinking of Cao Shaoqin's position in the East Factory, they could only suppress their anger and dared not to flare up.

Being insulted in person, Jiang Xuan felt a surge of anger in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He took a deep breath to suppress his anger, and asked with a bow, "I wonder what the eunuch means?"

Cao Shaoqin said, "Three days from now, I will personally escort Yang Yuxuan's daughter to exile outside the Great Wall. You will then bring your men with me."

After Cao Shaoqin finished speaking, he stood up and walked outside.

Cao Tian and others glanced at Jiang Xuan, sneered disdainfully, and then left.

Jiang Xuan ignored him. He stood there, feeling a slight tightness in his heart.

The plot of Dragon Gate Inn is about to begin?
