The night was silent, and in the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.
After getting up and washing up, Xiao Wuji went to the North Garrison of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
This was Xiao Wuji's first time going to the Northern Military District.
The red doors of the Discipline Office opened, and the tall buildings were magnificent.
There were four Embroidered Uniform Guards standing guard in front of the door. They were all wearing flying fish clothes and holding embroidered spring knives at their waists.
(The lowest official position in the Brocade Guards is a strong man. There is no rank. Sometimes, he is called a captain of the Brocade Guards, but this captain is far from a military captain.)）
The four of them stood at the door with their backs straight. Their faces were expressionless, and they were dignified without anger. They were like four pillars, looking straight at the street in front of the door.
When the passers-by saw the four strongmen standing in front of the gate, they all looked away in fear and avoided the place.
After all, the reputation of the Brocade Guard was not good.
In the eyes of many commoners, the Jinyiwei in the Zhenfu Department were all fiendish, evil ghosts that ate people without spitting out bones.
There were Embroidered Uniform Guards who were approachable like his father, Xiao Ruohai. They were only one in a hundred.
"This is the Jinyiwei's Northern Garrison, don't trespass!”
Seeing Xiao Wuji approaching the entrance of the Discipline Department, a strongman immediately stopped him.
Xiao Wuji handed over his father's token and cupped his hands.""Milords, it has been hard on you. Please inform them that the son of Chief Banner Xiao Ruohai, Xiao Wuji, has come to report to fill the vacancy.”
"Xiao Wuji?"
"Are you the son of Chief Banner Xiao Ruohai?"
A strongman looked at Xiao Wuji and frowned slightly.
After taking the token and confirming that there was no mistake, he let down his guard.
At the same time, there was less arrogance on his face and more kindness.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards had a hereditary system. Before Xiao Wuji's father died, he was the Chief Banner, which meant that Xiao Wuji would be the Chief Banner as soon as he took office.
His status was much higher than those who guarded the door.
"Since you're one of us, let's go in.”
After returning the token to Xiao Wuji, Li Shi said,"After you enter, don't run around. Take care of your eyes and ears. Someone will naturally take you to see Lord Thousand Households.”
"I understand. Thank you for your advice, sir.”
A burly man walked toward them as they entered the Discipline Department.
Seeing this person, Xiao Wuji immediately called out," Uncle Yang.”
"Coming, Wuji!"
The man smiled at Xiao Wuji and patted him on the shoulder.
"How have you been these few days? Don't be too sad. It's all in the past. From today onwards, you'll take over your father's work.”
"Got it, Uncle Yang."
Xiao Wuji answered obediently.
This man's name was Yang Dali. He was a colleague of his father, Xiao Wuji. He was also a commander.
Xiao Ruohai had a good relationship with Yang Dali when he was alive. The two of them had worked together for more than ten years.
Yang Dali had also participated in the operation to encircle the Black Tiger Gang.
He was lucky to have survived and brought back his father's body.
"Let's go, I'll bring you to see Lord Qianhu.”
"Remember, when you see Daren later, you must be respectful and don't speak nonsense.”
Yang Dali instructed in a heavy tone.
"Got it, Uncle Yang."
Xiao Wuji nodded obediently, looking harmless.
After all, it was his first time at the Discipline Office, so Xiao Wuji did not act arrogantly because of his powerful martial arts.
Arrogant people often died quickly. He was very clear about this principle.
Following Yang Dali, Xiao Wuji passed through the front yard, the corridor, the moon gate, and finally arrived at the Yamen Thousand Households.
When he arrived at the entrance of the central hall of the Thousand Households Institute, Xiao Wuji immediately saw a person sitting in the main seat of the central hall, examining and approving official documents.
He was Yuan Xiong, the Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. He was Yang Dali and Xiao Ruohai's immediate superior.
Xiao Wuji had also heard of this person's name before. He was ranked first among the sixteen thousand households of the North Town Administrative Office.
Yuan Xiong's actual age was already over fifty years old, but his internal energy was profound and he had a good way of maintaining his health. He looked to be in his forties.
He was wearing a red four-clawed flying fish robe with cloud patterns. His aura was tough and intimidating.
"Subordinate Yang Dali greets Your Excellency!"
Yang Dali stepped forward and cupped his fists. Xiao Wuji followed suit.
Hearing the voice, Yuan Xiong put down the document and looked over.
"Sir, Xiao Ruohai's son, Xiao Wuji, is here to fill the vacancy." Yang Dali quickly reported respectfully.”
"Xiao Ruohai's son."
Yuan Xiong looked at Xiao Wuji and nodded slightly.
"Not bad, he looks more like a scholar.”
"Your father is an old subordinate of mine. He has worked diligently for more than ten years. He has never made any great contributions, but he has made many small contributions.”
"Originally, I had planned to give him a hand and let him be a test centurion.”
Yuan Xiong shook his head slightly and continued,"Your father died while chasing bandits. He has done a great job in protecting the people.”
Yuan Xiong made the decision and immediately appointed Xiao Wuji as his new position.
Although the Jinyiwei had a hereditary system, it was natural for the son to inherit after the father died.
However, there were still many things to do inside.
If you met a greedy superior, you could forget about succeeding him without spending some money.
A casual sentence from him could stop you and make you have no way out.
"Thank you, sir!"
Xiao Wuji cupped his fists and bowed. Yang Dali did the same.
He had a close relationship with Xiao Ruohai, so he naturally wanted to see Xiao Wuji succeed him.
"Go, bring him to register and collect his official robes and weapons.”
Yuan Xiong waved his hand and lowered his head to continue approving the documents.
"This subordinate will take his leave!"
Xiao Wuji and Yang Dali cupped their hands and left the Thousand Households Middle Hall.
After that, Yang Dali brought Xiao Wuji to register.
Xiao Wuji received his Embroidered Uniform Guard token.
The front of the token had the words "Embroidered Uniform Guards" written on it, while the back had Xiao Wuji's name and position.
With this token, Xiao Wuji could be considered a true Embroidered Uniform Guards Commander.
Then, with the token, Xiao Wuji went to the storeroom to get a set of flying fish clothes and an embroidered spring saber.
The style and fabric were naturally not as good as Yuan Xiong's Thousand Flying Fish Garment, but it was much better than the strongman standing guard outside the door.
Xiao Wuji immediately changed into the Flying Fish Garment and hung the Embroidered Spring Saber at his waist.
