Su Mu admired Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian's confidence.
However, he knew that the world was not that simple, so he had to be more cautious.
Therefore, Su Mu reminded him again,""Confidence is a good thing, but you must not be arrogant. You must know that the Martial Virtue Bureau has existed for two hundred years, and its minions are all over the world, so you must not be careless.”
"Understood!"
Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian's hearts trembled as they bowed and accepted the order.
Seeing their reactions, Su Mu nodded in satisfaction.
Then, Su Mu remembered something and instructed,"
"Alright, go deal with those moles. I don't need them anymore, but you have to be careful. If they don't help me expand, there's no need to be calculative.”
After receiving the order, Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian naturally went down to carry out their tasks.
This meant that the Xu family and the Wan family had to be dealt with.
Just as they came out of the courtyard, Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian saw Xiao Ting walking towards them.
The other party greeted him very politely,"Eunuch, are you busy again?”
Cao Zhengchun stared at Xiao Ting with a fake smile and said in a sinister tone,""Commander Xiao, the Lord has ordered that we can address you by your position or name, but not Eunuch.”
Xiao Ting didn't have much of a reaction. Instead, he sized up Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian and said with a smile,"My Lord is overthinking. Your identities…Anyone with discerning eyes can see it, especially you, Supervisor Cao. It's hard not to know!”
Of course, Cao Zhengchun did not buy it. Instead, he said coldly,""Hmph, Commander Xiao, you're really sharp-tongued. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you came before us.”
The smile on Xiao Ting's face disappeared and he said indifferently,""I am only responsible for the safety of my Lord and have no interest in participating in your struggles. So if you want to fight, then fight. Don't count me in. Although I am only a nominal Jinyiwei, since I am the commander, then don't stretch your hands too far.”
"Hmph, just wait and see!"
Cao Zhengchun snorted coldly and turned to leave.
As for Yu Huatian, he followed behind them unhurriedly.
However, before he left, he gave Xiao Ting a deep look, but he still didn't say anything.
"Sigh, the two eunuchs are here, so nosy!”As for Xiao Ting, he helplessly shook his head as he watched the two of them leave.
Xiao Ting came to Su Mu's study and bowed.""Master, I have something to report!"
"Sit down!"
Su Mu waved his hand, indicating for Xiao Ting to sit down.
After sitting down, Xiao Ting quickly reported the situation.
"Master, Yuwen Feng has reported again that a large number of elites from the Martial Virtue Department have infiltrated Xuanzhou under the leadership of Deputy Envoy Yan Tong. Moreover, the other party has also contacted the bandits in an attempt to make a fuss about the bandits.”
Hearing this, Su Mu's expression turned serious.
This was because this bandit problem could not be underestimated.
Especially in ancient times, it was a problem among problems. If someone did something to it, it would only be more troublesome.
Therefore, after learning that the Martial Virtue Bureau had such thoughts, Su Mu knew that he could not be careless about this matter, so he first asked about the bandits in Xuan Zhou.
"Right, how many bandits are there in Xuanzhou?”
Xiao Ting had already sorted out the relevant information, and he reported it while presenting it.
"According to the investigation of the Embroidered Uniform Guards in the past few days, there are quite a few bandits in various parts of Xuanzhou. The more famous ones are the three major bandits: the Ma bandits entrenched in Lianhua Mountain, the Black Wind Mountain active in Zhang County, and the remaining group of horse bandits. Their stronghold is relatively hidden, and their range of activity is from the grasslands to Dongyuan City.”
Hearing this, Su Mu frowned and pondered.”
After a moment of silence, Su Mu said,"" The 20,000 cavalry of the North Manor Army has returned. They have ordered the North Manor Army to wipe out the bandits and exterminate the horse bandits. As for the remaining two areas, we will let the West and East Chambers deal with them.”
The 20,000 cavalry of the North Manor Army were already stationed in Dongyuan City. They would let the cavalry of the North Manor Army deal with these horse bandits. How powerful could a group of horse bandits be?
What could they do against twenty thousand elite heavy-armored cavalry?
Su Mu thought that the 20,000 cavalry of the North Manor Army was enough to deal with them. Moreover, there were still 10,000 North Manor Army soldiers in Dongyuan City. Therefore, 3,000 cavalry would be enough to deal with these horse bandits.
However, to be cautious, they sent out five thousand cavalrymen.
"That's right, Lotus Mountain is near Liaoyang City, right?" Su Mu asked.”
"Yes." Xiao Ting nodded.
After knowing the situation, Su Mu thought about it seriously for a while before making arrangements.
"How about this, let the East Chamber be in charge of the bandits at Lotus Mountain, let the West Chamber be in charge of Black Wind Mountain at Zhang County, let Yu Huatian be in charge personally, and at the same time, stop the secret agents of the Martial Virtue Bureau who have infiltrated Xuanzhou.”
Xiao Ting knew what Su Mu meant and replied,""Alright, I'll inform them."
However, Su Mu continued,"Right, we have to wait until they deal with the Xu and Wan families before we let them take action. This way, they can fight less.”
"Master, you know this.”Hearing this, Xiao Ting wasn't surprised and only smiled.
Su Mu didn't mind Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian having a good fight. After all, it was harmless and could increase their competitiveness.
That was a good thing.
But fighting was fighting, as long as it ruined the big picture.
Fortunately, these people were all loyal, so there was no need to worry too much. However, it was still necessary to knock them down from time to time.
"There's nothing wrong with fighting. I don't mind, but the stability between the three cannot go wrong. The Jinyiwei and the West Hall supervise each other.”
After saying that, Su Mu deliberately paused for a moment.
Then, he added," Yu Wenfeng's strength is not enough. He can't control the situation. That's why I let you be the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards."”
In response, Xiao Ting flattered him a little. He didn't mind doing so.
"I know my lord's painstaking efforts, but I still hope that someone can take over as soon as possible. I'm still suitable for the job of guarding. Now, these things are really giving me a headache. Even if I just look through them, it's already mentally and physically exhausting.”
Of course, the reason why he was sucking up was because of work.
To be honest, Xiao Ting felt that he really couldn't take it anymore.
Even if the Jinyiwei had sufficient manpower, there were some things that needed to be handled by him, the commander, so this busy was inevitable.
How could Su Mu not know what Xiao Ting meant? However, the problem was that he was not very satisfied.
After all, in terms of being busy, who was the busiest?
It was him!
Sigh, when will there be civil officials and generals?
I really hope that the civil and military officials will arrive as soon as possible. At that time, whether it's government affairs or war, I won't need to do it myself. I only need to be the final gatekeeper.
