Chapter 369: Entering the Temple

Kyoto, Military and Horse Division.

A messenger dressed in brocade clothes stood at the door of the government office, waiting patiently.

When he saw Shen Qing, he looked happy, trotted all the way, came up to him and said, "I have met Mr. Shen in Haibei. Lord Lan has just sent a message, so he asked me to take Mr. Shen to receive the reward from His Majesty, and also Assist the Lord in taking office.”

"Good work."

"Don't dare, don't dare, it's all a matter of humble position."

Shen Qing nodded and walked into the Bingma Si Yamen first.

Yu Haibei fell one step behind and followed Shen Qing.

The Military and Horse Division of the Great Zhou Kingdom is divided into five cities, including five major regions: East, West, South, North, and Central. Each has a general post, which is responsible for the Military and Horse Division and the Weiwu Division of the Great Friday District, and is responsible for the public security of the world.

Generally speaking, everything from traitors and monsters to thieves and evil parties to thieves and dogs should be under the jurisdiction of the Military and Horse Department.

However, the military and horse departments in Kyoto and the local areas are slightly different.

Local military commanders mostly focus on handling local affairs, while the Kyoto military commander is more concerned with protecting the security of the royal family.

Same thing, slightly different emphasis.

It is this difference in emphasis that makes the status of the Kyoto Military and Horse Division much higher than that of other yamen.

"Master Shen, please come this way." Yu Haibei didn't say much, and respectfully led Shen Qing into the Military and Horse Division Yamen Office.

As soon as Fang stepped into this government office, an indescribable aura of nobility hit his face.

Shen Qing looked around and saw the cornices and carved beams, which were very majestic.

It is far beyond what local yamen can compare with.

The space is huge and the number of people is huge.

Shen Qing made a rough estimate in his mind. In the short time he had been walking, he had already encountered more servants on the road than in a single Yamen in Yongzhou.

The scale of Kyoto is probably much larger than what he remembered.

Yu Haibei, who was following Shen Qing, introduced them one by one: "The yamen office of our Military and Horse Department has a third courtyard. This first courtyard is where the officers in Kyoto make daily inspections, rest and work, because this belongs to the imperial city. , Patrols are on duty day and night, so there are a lot of these officers.”

Shen Qing thought of Tian Xiaohu and the others, and asked, "What are the requirements for working as a servant here? What's the salary like?"

"You have to be a practicing master, at least have a good Qi cultivation level, have a clean life, and have a family in the capital."

Shen Qing couldn't help but sigh a little after hearing this.

In Taiping County, the cultivation level of the Qi-nourishing realm is enough to open a martial arts school and become a figure, but in this capital city, it is the threshold for ordinary servants.

You must know that the servants are not even "officials" to a certain extent.

It is worthy of being the core place of Zhou Kingdom, with masters everywhere.

Having a family also blocked some desperadoes.

Calculating this, if he wanted to bring Tian Xiaohu and others in, he would probably be in some trouble.

As if aware of Shen Qing's thoughts, Yu Haibei lowered his voice and said: "Master Shen, if you want to let the people around you come in to find an official position, you and the other people should always get along with each other and fight with the people below. It should be okay to say hello.”

Shen Qing glanced at Yu Haibei in surprise, feeling that this man was really good-looking and had an exquisite mind, and he was really good at observing people's emotions.

He changed the topic without comment and said: "Then the second and third ones will enter the hospital later."

"The second entrance is where the police department and the chiefs work, and the third entrance is where the five chief guards and commanders work." Yu Haibei led the way: "Sir, this is where we are going today. This third person is entering the hospital, please come this way."

Shen Qing nodded and walked towards the second entrance.

When the officers around him saw him walking toward the second hospital with a new face, their attitudes immediately became respectful and no longer as indifferent as before.

Shen Qing couldn't help but smile.

The human heart is so delicate.

After bypassing a screen wall and walking into the second courtyard, there were suddenly fewer people inside.

He counted them carefully, and there were about a dozen people. Some of them were sitting on the ground practicing luck, some were stretching their fists and feet and making gestures, and a few of them were idle and sparring with each other.

It can be seen that these people are full of blood and energy, and their auras are restrained. At least they are all in the Qi Sea realm. If they are released casually, they may become rampant in the local area.

When Shen Qing appeared in the backyard, these bosses and agents were obviously very discerning and knew that Shen Qing's identity was unusual when he came in.

Several people interrupted the practice, looked at Shen Qing and lowered their voices: "Which family is this kid from, coming in from the back? He looks really young."

"I heard that our yamen is going to have a southern chief police officer. It can't be him, right?"

"How is that possible? He looks so young. If he can make the total difference, it would be incredible."

While everyone was talking about it, Shen Qing walked into the third courtyard under the guidance of Haibei, leaving everyone in the second courtyard looking at each other.

The man who was denying it just now swallowed softly and said, "It's true."

They all couldn't believe it.

Shen Qing has a keen sense of consciousness, and every move of these people falls in his eyes.

He didn't explain much and walked in quickly.

When I entered the third hospital, the scene in front of me changed again.

I saw that the courtyard was filled with various rockeries and flowing water, man-made scenery, and it was extremely quiet.

Moreover, the area of ​​the courtyard is only larger than that of the first courtyard and the second courtyard.

Yu Haibei guided Shen Qing all the way to a wing.

"Master Shen, we are here. Your Majesty's reward and your appointment document have been prepared. Please come here."

"good."

Shen Qing pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw an older middle-aged man sitting lazily on a chair, closing his eyes to rest, or practicing.

Before Shen Qing got close, he felt a slight burning sensation.

It can be seen that the middle-aged man in front of him has a high level of cultivation, at least in the Lingxu realm or higher, and has a deep cultivation.

He didn't expect such a person to be so honest in the military department, without any arrogant look.

Yu Haibei stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, this is Lord Shen Qing, who came here today to take up the job and receive the reward from His Majesty. I hope you can help me."

The middle-aged man sitting on the chair slowly opened his eyes, yawned, and stretched his body.

He raised his eyelids and said to Shen Qing: "Are you the new chief officer Shen Qing?"

Shen Qing didn't know the details of this middle-aged man, and said with an unchanged expression: "Yes."

The middle-aged man didn't say anything, but silently took out a jade card and said to Shen Qing: "This is the Qiwen Cuiying Order personally granted by His Majesty. With this order, you can enter and exit the royal armory and withdraw ten thousand wish beads. It is also the proof that you are the chief officer of the Kyoto Army."

Shen Qing took the jade card and looked at it carefully.

This thing is emerald green, and the jade contains an indescribable spirit.

The whole jade card is engraved with complex and mysterious beautiful patterns, and it flashes with a faint green light under the sunlight outside the house.

The word "Shen" written in a small seal in the middle is very dazzling.

What's more amazing is that when he touched this thing, he actually felt a faint warmth, which was a bit extraordinary.

The middle-aged man explained: "This Qiwen Cuiying Order has a powerful magical power imprint engraved on it, and it has an anti-counterfeiting function. When you take it back, drop a drop of blood essence on it, and it will be bound to you. Only you can use it, and it is useless for others to take it."

"Okay, thank you, senior."

After hearing this, Shen Qing twisted his fingers, pierced the tip of his finger with spiritual energy, and squeezed out a drop of blood essence on the Qiwen Cuiying Order.

The Qiwen Cuiying Order glowed slightly and absorbed the drop of blood essence.

Suddenly, Shen Qing felt a blood connection with the Qiwen Cuiying Order, which made Shen Qing marvel.

Today I have seen it. It is worthy of being the capital that has collected the martial arts of the world. Even a token can play so many tricks, making it like a magic weapon.

The middle-aged man chuckled and said, "Last time, a guy who had this order had to bite the tip of his tongue and spit at this treasure, making it stink. You are quite smart."

'Uh...' Shen Qing really didn't think about this level.

The middle-aged man took out another stack of documents and handed them to Shen Qing, saying, "This is your official certificate. Now your place of origin is 'official'. There is also a description of your official position in it. Please keep it carefully."

Shen Qing took the official certificate with a look of surprise.

Unexpectedly, after entering the capital, his identity has changed, from the original 'military' to the 'official'.

In the Great Zhou Kingdom, there are emperors, nobles, officials, doctors, warriors, farmers, workers, merchants, and slaves.

The official status is second only to the emperor and nobles, that is, the imperial family, and after the kings, princes, generals and ministers.

To a certain extent, Shen Qing has entered the temple from today and become an upper-class person in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

And this is just a matter of Ji Zikong's words.

The middle-aged man said, "Nothing else to do."

This was very different from the expected receipt of rewards and entry procedures, which surprised Shen Qing.

On the way here, he was still thinking about how to take away tens of thousands of wish beads, but now it seems that he was worrying too much.

He didn't bother much, took the things and bowed, and quietly withdrew.

Shen Qing looked at Yu Haibei and said, "Next, what other procedures need to be done?"

Yu Haibei said respectfully, "There are still some trivial matters left, such as official uniforms and daily clothes. I will bring them for you, and there is nothing else."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you to make a trip when the time comes." Shen Qing said casually.

"By the way, the commander went out today to look for you, and also called back the other chief messengers. If you have nothing to do, go and see them. Judging from the commander's intention, I'm afraid he wants to welcome you." Yu Haibei reminded.

"Where are they?"

"In the hall of the third courtyard." Yu Haibei pointed to the location and said, "I am of low status, so it is not convenient to go there. You can go by yourself."

Shen Qing nodded and walked straight to the direction pointed by Yu Haibei.

Before he got close, Shen Qing heard the laughter in the hall from afar. He did not have any stage fright and walked straight in.

Swish, swish, swish.

As soon as he entered the door, four pairs of eyes looked at Shen Qing at the same time.

Shen Qing looked up and saw four people sitting in the hall, four men and one woman.

Lan Gongliang, the commander of the world's troops, sat in the center, and under him, two people sat on each side.

"This is Mr. Shen who is here to pick up Lao Liu. I heard he is very young. I saw him today and he is really handsome."

The speaker was a man with knife-cut noodles.

His voice was a little sharp, his face was very pale, and his figure was different from that of ordinary warriors. He was a little thin and felt like he would fall down if the wind blew.

Lan Gongliang said, "There are no outsiders here, you don't have to be so polite, come in."

"Yes, sir."

Shen Qing smiled and walked in front of the few people.

Lan Gongliang stood up, pointed to the people in front of him and introduced one by one: "This is Wei Chengye, the chief commissioner of the Central Region. Among all the people, he has served in the Military and Horse Division the longest and has the most experience. If there is any official business in the future, If you don’t understand, you can ask him.”

Shen Qing looked along what Lan Gongliang was pointing and saw the middle man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, giving people an extremely honest impression.

Sensing Shen Qing's gaze, he nodded slightly.

Lan Gongliang turned to point at an ordinary-looking man and said: "This is Zeng Weifeng, the chief police officer in the north. He is a good man in catching thieves. After Zeng Yezi, he has countless blast furnaces at home. If you want to forge troops, you can find him. "

He then pointed to the only woman and said: "This is Zhao Lengyan, the chief of the Western Region, the noble daughter of the Zhao family, the queen of the aristocratic family."

"The Eastern Chief, Yang Henshan, is the adopted son of Yang Changshi, the imperial eunuch."

Shen Qing couldn't help but be a little surprised after hearing the news one by one.

Except for him, almost everyone in this room has a good background.

Every one of them had a backer, and he couldn't help but feel solemn in his heart.

After the introduction, Lan Gongliang said to the other four people: "This young man is Shen Qing, the Southern Chief of Staff appointed by His Majesty, the only survivor of this Jingtuan meeting."

Shen Qing stepped forward, neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "I am in Yongzhou, Shen Qing, and I have met all of my colleagues."

As the only woman among the chief ministers, Zhao Lengyan said: "I heard that things happened one after another during the Jingchao Association, and even ancient ruins appeared. I don't know if it is true or not? Huang Tianjiao is really that capable. With just one formation, he can Killed so many people in one go?"

Shen Qing looked at Zhao Lengyan, his eyes sweeping away without trace.

Perhaps due to martial arts training, her figure looks a bit burly, and many muscle lines can be vaguely seen.

She was wearing black uniform and looked a bit like a man.

That is what everyone often calls a manly woman.

Shen Qing was talking nonsense: "It is true that ancient ruins appeared. Speaking of which, the situation after the appearance of this ancient ruins was extremely chaotic. Huang Tianjiao took advantage of this to set up a killing array and killed the morning martial arts master in one breath. I was just lucky. Well, I didn’t get involved and got away with it.”

In his opinion, the martial arts masters in the Jingluan Society are basically dead. As long as he doesn't make up outrageous things, no one will be able to tell.

"That's it." Zhao Lengyan smiled boldly, without any sadness on her face: "It seems that my cousins ​​are in bad luck this time."

Lan Gongliang looked around at everyone and said: "Mr. Shen is a young and talented man. Joining our Military and Horse Division this time will be of great help to us and the Military and Horse Division in dealing with demons across the country. You all must work together."

"Yes, sir." Everyone said in unison.

Speaking of monsters, Shen Qing suddenly remembered something. He stepped forward and asked, "Master Lan, do you know that Taiping County has been captured by monsters?"
