The old man ignored the shivering eunuch and just waved his hand casually.
"You step back first."
"Yes... yes!"
The old eunuch, as if he had been granted amnesty, rolled out of the hall and crawled to the ground.
The emperor straightened up, his expression respectful, but he could not hide the anxiety in his eyes.
"High Ancestor, that vision just now..."
"No need to check."
The old man walked to the side and sat down on a chair with a calm expression, "That was the movement coming out of Martial Temple."
"Martial Temple?"
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed drastically, "Could it be that there is a peerless Demon who has sneaked into Martial Temple?!"
If that's the case, then things are very serious.
Martial Temple is the foundation of Great Tang's military fortune. If something goes wrong...
"Demon?"
The old man sneered, raised his eyelids, and glanced at the emperor.
"Where did Demon come from? She's just a little girl."
"..."
The emperor was completely confused.
How can a person make such a movement?
White Dragon Overturning the clouds, tigers stepping into the sky, black bears conquering the world... How does this seem like something that humans can do?
"Girl? It's Jiang...Jiang Yuechu?!"
"It's her."
The old man put down the tea cup, a glint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
"This girl is amazing. I didn't expect that after so many years, I, Great Tang, would actually step out of the world and find a Spirit Seal on my own, Qilin."
The emperor froze on the spot and was speechless for a long time.
All spirits resonate and pray for people.
This is not only a sign of outstanding talent, but also a sign of great luck!
"I Great Tang..."
The emperor murmured to himself, "How could such a person appear?"
"Use her well."
The old man stood up and straightened his robe, "Perhaps, Great Tang will depend on her for the next thousand years."
"If it doesn't work well..."
The old man did not say any more, but looked deeply at the emperor.
The figure gradually faded until it disappeared.
Peace returned to the palace.
The emperor stood there and did not move for a long time.
At this moment, his mind was filled with the image of that girl.
Cold and aloof.
If such a person can really be loyal to the imperial court, why worry about Great Tang not being popular?
"Here comes someone."
The emperor suddenly spoke.
The palace door was pushed open, and the old eunuch walked in cautiously.
"His Majesty?"
The emperor raised his head, his eyes deep.
"The case of Jiang Xun is now on trial for Wei Wenda, right?"
The old eunuch was stunned.
Why are you suddenly asking about this again?
A few days ago, didn't His Majesty still think that Wei Wenda was procrastinating in doing things and refused to close the case, and even asked him to send an edict to urge him?
Thinking of this, the old eunuch's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that His Majesty needs to be held accountable again?
He quickly bowed and replied carefully, even trying to excuse Duke Wei a little.
"Return... return to His Majesty."
"Duke Wei's side... seems to have some new clues to check, so... the case has not been closed yet."
After saying that, the old eunuch lowered his head and prepared to be scolded.
However.
The expected curse did not come.
"The case is not closed?"
There was a hint of surprise in the emperor's voice that was not easy to detect.
"It's fine if it's not knotted... It's fine if it's not knotted!"
The old eunuch raised his head blankly.
I saw young Son of Heaven let out a long sigh of relief, with a bit of a smile on his face.
"Preach my will."
"The case of Jiang Xun is a major matter and full of doubts. We must not convict hastily!"
"Let him examine me carefully! Examine him slowly!"
"If there is a shortage of manpower, we will transfer it from Ministry of Justice! If we are short of money, we will transfer it from Inner Treasury!"
"Anyway..."
The emperor squinted his eyes, his eyes sparkling.
"Let me handle this case first."
"Without my will, no one is allowed to close the case!"
The old eunuch opened his mouth wide with a look of disbelief on his face.
Which song is this sung from?
A few days ago, he was urging me to behead him quickly.
Why did you suddenly change your temper today and start a detailed investigation?
"Why don't you go quickly?!"
Seeing the old eunuch in a daze, the emperor frowned and scolded.
"Yes, yes! I'll go right now, slave!"
The old eunuch was startled, got up quickly, and ran out stumblingly.
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
The ancients never deceived me!
I experienced a vision that covered the sky and the sun a few days ago.
The hustle and bustle among Chang'an has not diminished, but has intensified.
In the teahouse and tavern, the storyteller was stunned and started composing a joke about the auspicious birth.
The common people were whispering among themselves, debating which of the immortal mounts White Dragon and the black bear were.
Just as the city was boiling.
Da da da--
The sound of horse hooves came from the official road outside the city.
The guard at the city gate was about to stop shouting, but when he saw the figure on the horse clearly, he swallowed back the scolding and hurriedly moved away from the horse.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Pedestrians on the roadside gave way one after another, looking at the smoke and dust in confusion.
I saw a group of dozens of horses shooting into the city gate like sharp black arrows.
None of these people wore armor, but wore black brocade robes.
The crotch is covered with Black-Scaled Red-Eyed's tall and strong monster horse.
His face was stern and dusty.
"This is...Demon Suppression Bureau Inspector?"
Someone recognized that outfit.
However, this is just the beginning.
It only takes half a cup of tea.
Figures one after another, either riding alone or in groups, poured into the city.
Their clothes are either black, white or silver.
They have only one goal.
Standing like a giant beast on the east side of Imperial City - Demon Suppression General Bureau.
As the last figure in white robes crossed the threshold, two black iron doors weighing more than a thousand kilograms slowly closed.
A muffled sound completely cut off the noise outside.
The sunlight was blocked outside the door, and the light suddenly dimmed in the huge main hall.
There were only a few ever-burning lamps burning quietly in the corners.
At this moment, in the hall, hundreds of figures lined up on both sides.
At the end of the hall, on a high platform, sat an old man.
Wearing a loose black uniform with a slightly open neckline, she looked a bit slovenly.
His eyelids were half drooped, his expression indifferent.
He seemed to be taking a nap, and he seemed to be listening to the next report.
I don't know how long it took.
Zhao Zhongliu slowly opened his eyes. "Not bad."
After hearing this, the tense atmosphere seemed to relax a bit.
Many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But what followed was deeper doubts.
Several Silver Robe standing in the front row exchanged glances and frowned slightly.
If it's just for debriefing.
Why were all Patrol Envoys near Capital City suddenly recalled, regardless of grade?
Just when everyone was in shock and doubt.
Zhao Zhongliu on the stage suddenly straightened up.
The original lazy and casual attitude disappeared in an instant.
"There is one more thing to call you back."
"I am going to promote Silver Robe Inspector."
Hearing this, everyone immediately became commotion.
Unlike Demon Suppression Bureau who are stationed in various places, most Patrol Envoy act independently, with no more than a few people at most.
And Patrol Envoy monitors the world, not only to deal with the thorny Demon that cannot be solved locally, but also to pick up the crimes of dereliction of duty by the Demon Suppression Bureau.
In this Patrol Envoy system, the hierarchy is strict.
Black, white, silver and gold.
To reach the level of Silver Robe, one must have the terrifying strength to take charge of one's own affairs and suppress a disaster with one person's power.
Looking at the entire General Headquarters, Silver Robe can only be counted on two hands.
Now, is there going to be another one?
Under the stage, a middle-aged man wearing Silver Robe stepped out.
He frowned slightly, cupped his hands and said, "May I ask Deputy Commander, which white-robed colleague is he?"
Those who can be promoted to Silver Robe must be old people who have spent several years in the white robe position and accumulated sufficient qualifications and merits.
The rest of the people also nodded, their eyes rolling on the senior white-robed Patrol Envoy in the crowd.
Several people in white robes also straightened their backs, with a faint look of expectation in their eyes.
However.
Zhao Zhongliu shook his head.
"No."
No?
Everyone was stunned.
The Silver Robe man was also a little surprised, "It's not a white robe? Could it be that... which black robe made a great contribution to the sky and crossed two levels in a row?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall became a little weird.
Crossed two levels in a row?
Demon Suppression Bureau has been established for hundreds of years. Although this kind of thing happens, it is very rare.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, wondering if any of their black-robed colleagues had shown up recently.
Zhao Zhongliu seemed too lazy to watch these people guessing riddles.
He raised his eyelids and waved his hand impatiently.
"Pass, Jiang Yuechu is coming in."
