"How is it?" Zhu Houzhao and the Empress Dowager looked at the three of them.
Cao Zhengchun spoke first." If he wasn't impersonated, then his family background is very clean. He has followed his father's footsteps and has always been ordinary. He has been serving in the imperial prison for almost a year."
Some time ago, he had offended Lei Qianjue's nephew, Lei Hu, and his life in the prison had been very unpleasant.
Before rescuing the Empress Dowager, he killed Lei Hu…"
"He has already explained this matter to aijia.”the empress dowager said softly.
" Yesterday, he killed a felon, Chen Tianba, who faked his death to escape," Zhuge Zhengwo said." That's why Lei Hu wanted to kill him."”
"There shouldn't be any problem with his family background. It's just that the fact that he suddenly became stronger is very suspicious," Zhu Buguang said.”
"Then do you think that the person who kidnapped the Empress Dowager is related to him?”Zhu Houzhao asked.
Before Cao Zhengchun, Zhu Budian, and Zhuge Zhengwo could speak, the Empress Dowager said,""It definitely doesn't matter, this widow saw him kill the criminal who kidnapped this widow.”
When she heard Zhuge Xiaohua, Zhu Bujue, Cao Zhengchun and the others say that Xiao Xun's family background was clean and that he had always been ordinary, she felt that Xiao Xun was sent by the heavens to save her.
Zhu Houzhao didn't comment on it and said," There must be someone behind the people who kidnapped Mother. There are also those three thieves who dared to cause chaos in the palace and burn Saint Origin Pavilion. We can't let any of them go."
I'll give you three days. You must capture the mastermind behind Mother's kidnapping and the three thieves.”
"Yes."
Zhuge Zhengwo, Zhu Budian, and Cao Zhengchun replied in unison.
"Your Majesty, what do you plan to do with Xiao Xun?”the empress dowager asked.
" This…" Zhu Houzhao hesitated for a moment. Actually, he still didn't completely trust Xiao Xun.
After some thought…
"How about transferring him to the Jinyiwei?" Zhu Houzhao muttered.
"Embroidered Uniform Guards? It's all up to Your Majesty." The empress dowager smiled. She had a distant nephew who worked in the Jinyiwei.
“……”
…
The Empress Dowager had returned to the palace…The blockade of the capital had not been lifted, and they were still searching for the whereabouts of the three thieves.
Xiao Xun carried Hua Daochang by the waist and left the Imperial City.
"Where is your home?"
Xiao Xun looked at Dao Chang and asked.
"Qingping Lane."
Hua Daochang said in a low voice, his face still red.
Along the way, she felt extremely tormented. It was too shameful to be hugged by a man like this and walk through the entire Imperial City.
Xiao Xun walked towards Qingping Lane as if there was no one around.
Qingping Lane was located in the western part of the capital city and was considered a slum.
"Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Budian will investigate Hua Daochang and me soon.”
Xiao Xun thought to himself.
He was not worried about himself…After all, his family background was really clean.
Hua Daochang, who was pretending to be Li Chang, would definitely not be able to withstand the scrutiny.
"You should have been exposed."
Xiao Xun said in a low voice.
Hua Daochang's expression changed slightly.
Actually, after seeing Zhu Bujue and Cao Zhengchun, she had a feeling that she had been seen through.
"You can directly expose me and use it as a stepping stone for you.”Hua Daochang said calmly.
Xiao Xun raised his eyebrows and nodded."This is a good idea."
"Bastard." Hua Daochang gritted his teeth, feeling inexplicably frustrated.
" Isn't this your suggestion?"
Xiao Xun snorted lightly." Get this straight. You're the thief, not me."”
"Anyway, you are a bastard." Hua Daochang said.
"With your ability, you should have left a way out for yourself, right?" Xiao Xun shook his head and muttered.”
A cunning rabbit had three burrows. Hua Daochang was known as the thousand-faced fox, so he definitely had more than one identity.
Hua Daochang's eyes moved slightly and he said in a low voice,""There is a way out, but my injury is a flaw.”
"Let's change our identities first." As Xiao Xun spoke, he reminded her," You are a wanted criminal from all the factions. Your identity has already been exposed. You should know how dangerous your situation is.”
Hua Daochang snorted.
Xiao Xun didn't say anything more. It was still the same sentence. The two of them weren't very familiar.
At most, they had done two or three things together. They had only known each other for less than two days.
Arriving at Qingping Square, Xiao Xun sent Hua Daochang home and was about to leave.
"I won't be Li Chang anymore.”Hua Daochang sat by the bed and looked at Xiao Xun's back.
Xiao Xun stopped in his tracks and raised his eyebrows without turning back."Next time you see me, you'd better avoid me. Otherwise, I might arrest you.”
With that, he walked out of Hua Daochang's house.
"Next time? You might not be able to recognize me…"
Hua Daochang muttered, his eyes shining with a strange light.
…
When Xiao Xun returned home, he found more than ten Jinyiwei gathered outside the courtyard.
"I am Yuan Xiaozhi, the Northern Town Commissioner of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.”
Yuan Xiaozhi took the initiative to introduce himself when he saw Xiao Xun walking over.
Not long ago, Emperor Zhu Houzhao had personally summoned him and asked him to arrange a suitable position for Xiao Xun in the North Military Department of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
"Lord Yuan." Xiao Xun called out and quietly waited for the rest.
"You have saved the Empress Dowager and His Majesty is very happy. He has promoted you to a thousand household of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.”Yuan Xiaozhi said with a smile.
"The Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards?" Xiao Xun was surprised and asked," This should be against the rules, right?”
"Indeed, it doesn't follow the rules." Yuan Xiaozhi nodded and then chuckled." However, you have the merit of rescuing the Empress Dowager. So what if you don't follow the rules?
We Brocade Guards are His Majesty's personal guards. His Majesty has the right to appoint anyone.”
"Alright, I'll have to trouble Lord Yuan to take care of me in the future.”Xiao Xun nodded his head and did not hold it in as he spoke out of courtesy.
Yuan Xiaozhi smiled." Rest for the day today. Tomorrow morning, go to the North Town Administrative Office on time. I will introduce you to our brothers."
When the time comes, you might need to show your skills.”
"Show me your skills?" Xiao Xun raised his eyebrows.
Yuan Xiaozhi stepped forward and whispered," In the past, the positions of Hundred Households and Thousand Households in the Embroidered Uniform Guards have always been a trap. When His Majesty promoted you to Thousand Households, someone was replaced."”
Xiao Xun suddenly understood and nodded, indicating that he understood.
Yuan Xiaozhi whispered a few more words of advice, then had people deliver the Thousand Households 'Flying Fish Robe, Embroidered Spring Knife, Tooth Token, Impermanence Book, and other items to Xiao Xun's residence before leading his men away.
Returning to the bedroom, Xiao Xun heaved a sigh of relief. He sat by the bed and pondered over what he had done today.
"They definitely won't believe me so easily.”
"Next…I still have to continue to increase my strength.”
Xiao Xun sat cross-legged on the bed and dispelled the distracting thoughts in his mind. He began to circulate the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art.
He had obtained a massive amount of power through looting corpses.
All of these skills could be transformed into Invincible Vajra Skills.
