Leaving Anhou Mansion.

Backyard main hall.

"I never ask about business matters, why do you want to show me the account?"

Li Wuji looked at Xiao Hongxing, who was a little embarrassed, and asked with a smile.

"Without the young master, I, Xiao Hongxing, would not be where I am today. Since these properties in my hands were all taken back by the young master, no matter the profit or loss, I should let the young master take a look."

"Young Master should also know something about the businesses that I am working with Shopkeeper Pang."

Xiao Hongxing raised his hands and spoke seriously, looking very nervous for fear of saying the wrong thing.

"No need, I like to make money, but I don't like to focus on business. Besides, each of your account books is so thick. It gives me a headache just to look at it."

"You deserve it, just keep it in your own pocket. I won't be polite at all about the share that belongs to me."

"I believe in you, so you don't have to be cautious. If one day you really do something, I will come to you without you coming."

Li Wuji lowered his head and took a sip of tea, while speaking lightly, the light of the sword was hidden between the conversation and laughter.

He did regard Xiao Hongxing as a friend, right from the night they had a drink at the tea stall, but he could never bear his friend's betrayal.

"Don't worry, young master, I will never interfere with you. Your kindness will be something I will never forget!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongxing hurriedly stood up, bowed respectfully, and said with a look of panic.

"Hehehe, you don't have to be nervous, I said I trust you."

"You should concentrate on taking care of the business at hand during this period. The days are long and sooner or later the entire Xiao family will be yours."

Li Wuji smiled and said confidently.

"Thank you, sir!"

"I understand."

Xiao Hongxing nodded and said gratefully.

"Okay, let's go back. If you need anything, just ask Lao Cao directly."

Li Wuji waved his hand and said slowly.

Xiao Hongxing agreed, said goodbye to Li Wuji, and turned to leave.

Li Wuji sat on a chair, watching Xiao Hongxing's back, with a meaningful smile on his face. He promised to help Xiao Hongxing regain all the Xiao family's property and let Xiao Hongxing take the position of head of the family. In fact, it was not just because he made Xiao Hongxing

Be a friend.

Another reason is that he really dislikes the mother and daughter Yun Baining and Xiao Muqiu! Just like he hates the mother and daughter within the high wall.

This world is supposed to be a man’s world, and we must not put the cart before the horse!

...

Three days later.

Outside the palace city, across the street from Wuxingsi Yamen.

As the carriage slowly stopped, Li Wuji slowly walked out of the carriage and looked at the plaque inscribed with the three characters "Jinlongwei" just above the door of the yamen gate. He couldn't help but reveal a helpless sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"See the Commander!"

As Li Wuji appeared, dozens of Golden Dragon Guards lined up at the entrance of the Yamen and in the courtyard immediately bowed respectfully to Li Wuji who was standing on the carriage shaft.

The sound is like a loud bell and the momentum is magnificent!

These are the manpower arranged by the empress for him. As the commander of the Golden Dragon Guard who was appointed in critical situation, there is actually no one who belongs to him in the entire yamen.

It's a little funny to think about it.

This is equivalent to being thrown into a cell with dozens of pairs of eyes!

I have to say that the empress made a beautiful move!

Li Wuji hesitated for a moment and slowly got out of the carriage. After looking around, he turned to look at the Five Elements Division opposite, and the smile at the corner of his mouth deepened.

Unexpectedly, the empress actually had the Yamen of the Golden Dragon Guard located opposite the Five Elements Department. This was like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den!

"Everyone get up!"

After Li Wuji paused for a while, he slowly walked into the Yamen, waved his hand and gave an order in a deep voice.

After the words fell, dozens of Golden Dragon Guards stood up in unison, their movements surprisingly consistent, and stepped aside to respectfully welcome Li Wuji to his appointment.

Such a scene can be regarded as full of cards, but who knows how many people among them will truly surrender to him? Maybe if you are not careful, there will be hidden arrows behind them!

"Jiang Shang, who holds a humble position, was assigned by the Empress to serve as the deputy commander of the Golden Dragon Guard. See you, Commander!"

At this time, a sturdy middle-aged man stepped forward, bowed respectfully to Li Wuji, and presented the transfer order.

Li Wuji stopped, took the order and glanced casually for a few times, and then began to look at Jiang Shang seriously.

He knew that the transfer order would be very strict and no problems would be seen.

"Ninth grade?"

"Your cultivation is pretty good!"

Li Wuji said calmly while looking at Jiang Shang.

"My lord, the commander, is ridiculously complimentary. Your ability to humble your position is nothing compared to your lordship. You cannot compete with your lordship."

Jiang Shang cupped his hands and smiled, his face full of respect.

"In this case, then you, the deputy commander, are not doing your job properly."

"From today on, you are no longer the deputy commander. There is only one commander in the Golden Dragon Guard, and only one person can give orders, and that is me!"

Li Wuji smiled, handed the order back to Jiang Shang, and continued walking inside.

Lu Yuan followed closely behind, carrying a rosewood box on his back.

"Sir...this..."

Hearing Li Wuji's words, Jiang Shang's face changed drastically. He looked at Li Wuji who walked away in surprise, feeling at a loss for a moment.

The other Golden Dragon Guards present also looked at each other in confusion.

Li Wuji actually rejected the transfer order issued by the empress herself in front of everyone! No one expected it!

"From now on, you will be the captain of the guard. Just help me convey some instructions, train my subordinates, and handle logistics."

"The rest of the things must not be overstepped!"

Li Wuji said as he walked into the inner hall.

"Tell Di Long to check everyone on the Golden Dragon Guard and see where they came from! I even want to know where their ancestral graves are!"

As Li Wuji walked, he said something coldly in a low voice.

"yes!"

Lu Yuan glanced at the Golden Dragon Guards behind him and agreed respectfully.

"This is my humble duty!"

Jiang Shang frowned, and while looking after Li Wuji, he solemnly agreed, but his expression was extremely ugly.

There were three fires for a new official when he took office. He really didn't expect that the first fire would actually be burned on himself.

Command post.

Li Wuji sat lazily on the chair, flipped through the table casually, and shook his head in boredom.

He doesn't like being an official because he hates the sophistication and flattery in official circles.

But when things have come to this point, I'm afraid even if I don't like it anymore, I have to bite the bullet.

"Reporting to the commander, the commander of the capital camp, Luo Ping, would like to see you."

At this moment, a Golden Dragon Guard slowly came to the door and reported respectfully.

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Li Wuji raised his eyebrows and showed a smile.

"please."

Soon, Luo Ping, led by the Golden Dragon Guard, walked in quickly, his face full of joy.

"Luo Ping, a humble official, has met the commander-in-chief."

Luo Ping said respectfully while saluting, the smile on his face could not be more flattering.

"Master Luo, I have just taken office, and my butt is not yet warm, and you are already here?"

Li Wuji smiled and asked.

"Didn't you come here to congratulate the Marquis after hearing the good news?"

Luo Ping said with a smile on his face.

"Sit down."

"Chief Jiang Guard?!"
