Zhu Houzhao's words made everyone speechless. A martial grandmaster was still weak? Most of the people present were only martial grandmasters.
In the entire Land of the Nine Prefectures, he was already not weak. He could be considered an expert.
In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, Pre-Sky Realm warriors were considered unranked and third-rate warriors. Innate Realm warriors were considered second-rate warriors, and only grandmasters were considered first-rate masters.
Great Grandmasters were considered super first-class, top-notch experts. Only those in the Celestial Realm were considered peerless experts.
In that case, a martial grandmaster was actually not weak.
The weakest person in the room was Zhu Houzhao, followed by Azure Dragon, who was at the perfected grandmaster realm. The others were all great grandmasters.
However, this was because everyone present was of high status and authority in the Great Ming Empire, and they were all nurtured by the Great Ming Empire with their foundation.
Compared to those ministers, these were all servants of the emperor.
However, other than these people present, there were not many martial grandmasters that had been nurtured.
"Although this Mortal Restoration Pill can allow martial artists at the Great Grandmaster Realm to break through to the Heaven Tier, it will also burn their foundation, making it difficult for them to cultivate in the future. Of course, this was rare. In the future, if you have any merits, I will naturally not be stingy.”
Feng Qingxue and the other two women had cleared the trials individually and teamed up with each other. In the past few days, they had received more than ten Mortal Restoration Pills as rewards.
Most of them were low-grade, and there were only two middle-grade ones.
The trials in the Tower of Trials could naturally be carried out for a long time and used in sequence.
However, for those below the Warrior Realm, they would only be rewarded after clearing each difficulty once.
Only those of the same realm or those of a higher realm could clear the stages in order to obtain the rewards.
However, as the number of times increased, the reward level would gradually decrease.
It was the same for those who fought above their level, but the rewards were of a higher grade.
Xie Xuan also received a few Mortal Restoration Pills and gave them to Zhu Houzhao.
Although this Mortal Restoration Pill had a huge flaw, it was still a high-end product and was not suitable for Xie Xuan.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"I called you here this time for the talent show. Liu Jin, repeat what I said before.”
"Yes, sir!"
The three special agencies understood that Zhu Houzhao was asking them to escort him.
In the past, the three organizations would have paid attention to it, but not too much.
Although they had immense power, most of them were doing it for their own benefit.
It was the same now. Although the Mortal Restoration Pill had a huge flaw, it was worth the risk.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. This servant will do her best to protect the selection.”
"Yes, very good. If I am satisfied with this selection, I will naturally reward you generously.”Zhu Houzhao's expression darkened." But I heard that you yamen are fighting against each other and dragging each other down?”
"This servant (subject) does not dare!"
"It doesn't matter in the past. Anyway, it doesn't involve Zhen's matters. Zhen doesn't care. However, if it spoils my plans because of internal strife, then I'll purge everyone from top to bottom. What do you think?”
Although there was no killing intent, the words of the person sitting on the throne naturally made the people below tremble in fear.
Cleansing them all was a brutal act.
West Hall, which was the latest to be built, had at least a few thousand people.
Not to mention the Embroidered Uniform Guards. For hundreds of years, in order to control the empire and spy on foreign countries, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had a total of 120,000 people.
If they were to be cleansed, the empire would be severely injured.
Weng Taibei naturally didn't believe that Zhu Houzhao would really purge the Brocade Guard, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't take it seriously.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Weng Taibei!"
"Your subject is here!"
"Take advantage of this opportunity to escort the selection. Have the East and West Chambers investigate the situation of the local officials and gentry. Regardless of whether there were any mistakes, they were all handed over.”
Weng Taibei's heart skipped a beat, and then he was overjoyed.""This subject obeys the decree!"
Wang Zhi and Cao Zhengchun cursed Weng Taibei in their hearts, but they still had to show their obedience on the surface.
Zhu Houzhao was worried about the draft, but he cared more about this information.
Zhu Houzhao didn't trust the records of the Wei Office.
Even if they did, they would gain little and would be deceived.
However, it was different this time.
Even if there was collusion, it wouldn't be too much.
After all, it was not easy for the three organizations to supervise each other.
Taking advantage of this time, he wanted to check on the situation in Great Ming's territory so that he had an idea.
He wasn't taking the opportunity to cause trouble. He was just making preparations.
He had never been an emperor or an official.
However, in his previous life, he was just a nobody. When he was in school, he was most annoyed by the leaders coming to patrol because they needed everyone to come out and welcome him. It was a waste of life.
When working, she hated the messy work assigned by the leader the most. It would disrupt the original work plan.
It was the same in life. For a sudden gathering, relatives and friends would suddenly come over without greeting. Although they were welcome, it was inevitable that they would have thoughts in their hearts.
To ordinary people, a stable life was the most important thing.
The most annoying thing was the messy changes, unless they couldn't survive.
Therefore, every policy had to be considered for the long term and stability. It could not be changed casually.
If the people could still survive, Zhu Houzhao would not have done anything. At most, he would have killed some big tigers and made a fortune.
……
After leaving the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Weng Taibei said,""Azure Dragon, bring the Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise with you to the Great Han and Great Song.”
"Commander, why do you have to do this? There should be enough people from the South Town Administrative Office.”
"His Majesty still has Mortal Restoration Pills in his hands. Although you are still far away, don't you want to pursue them?”
"But didn't Your Majesty say that after consuming the Mortal Restoration Pill, one's potential would be exhausted?”
"Can you guarantee that His Majesty doesn't have any more precious pills?”
"Commander, the selection of talents is the most important thing now." In particular, investigating the local officials and gentry was probably what His Majesty was most concerned about. If the Brocade Guard transfers too many people, it will only benefit the East and West Divisions.”
"You're right!" Weng Taibei nodded. I was too anxious."
Zheng Dongliu smiled and said,"Commander, there's no need to send anyone for the time being. As long as Ji Gang, Li Yi (Ming Dynasty Brocade Guard), Li Gexiao (Strange Hero Yi Zhimei), and the others are careful, nothing should happen."”
Ji Gang was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Li Yi was the commander of Qian Shi, and Li Gexiao was the governor of the South Town. They were all people with high positions and authority.
Weng Taibei had spent a lot of effort on Zhu Houzhao.
Originally, Zheng Dongliu wasn't too happy, but seeing Zhu Houzhao's generosity, he was more than happy to do so.
"Alright."
Weng Taibei didn't insist, although he guessed that Diao Chan, Xiao Qiao, Xiao Longnu, and the others were what Zhu Houzhao cared about the most.
However, the two of them were right. It was very important to investigate the place.
Especially when the local guards of the Embroidered Uniform Guards were no longer trusted by the Emperor. This made Weng Taibei very nervous, even though he himself was suspicious and even took the initiative to explain.
He only hoped that the local guards would not be too lousy. With Diao Chan and the others, at least they would not be punished.
Weng Taibei was like this, so were the East and West Chambers.
Knowing Zhu Houzhao's intentions, they naturally had to send people.
It was just that the Jinyiwei had done such a big thing, yet they still did not know. This was too much.
