Chapter 145: Too nervous, only two months to return to Beijing
Looking at Jiang Chen's money-obsessed look, King Huai'an smiled helplessly.
"Of course, I won't let you do these things in vain."
"But this needs to happen quickly. There are only two months left before you return to Beijing."
"If you don't return to Beijing to report on your work in two months."
"I'm afraid your life is in danger."
As he spoke, King Huai'an took out a token from his arms.
"I know that you have been organizing your own private army recently."
"This is my token. I can use it to dispatch one hundred Huai'an guards."
"I guess you need someone to train your private army."
"These one hundred Huai'an guards are just right to help you!"
Looking at the token handed over by King Huai'an and hearing what King Huai'an said.
Jiang Chen froze in place for a moment, feeling extremely frightened.
He didn't expect that King Huai'an had already placed people around him.
Seeing Jiang Chen's face change drastically, King Huai'an knew at a glance what he was afraid of.
"Don't worry, the people I have placed here are only to maintain the stability of Jiangnan."
"Now Jiangnan has finally returned to my hands."
"I, of course, do not wish to see the chaos in Jiangnan continue."
"However, among your people, there are people planted by other forces."
"I have already cleared it all for you, so don't worry."
Prince Huai'an's words seemed to be an explanation to Jiang Chen.
But in fact, it was a threat and warning to Jiang Chen.
Tell him that Jiangnan is my, King Huai'an's, territory!
If you dare to have any other ideas, I will get rid of you like I did those nails.
I can place someone by your side to easily help you remove the thorns.
Then, I can also kill you easily!
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen looked at King Huai'an who was still greeting him with a smile, and swallowed unconsciously.
The Prince of Huai'an is truly a hidden talent!
Either don't make a move, or when you make a move it's a killing move.
It must be said that the Prince of Huai'an's warning to Jiang Chen did serve as a wake-up call.
Although the Jinyiwei Nanzhen now has a size of hundreds of people.
But most of them were recruited by the veteran Liu Wei.
It can be said that since the establishment of the Jinyiwei Nanzhen Command Post, Jiang Chen has had no time to deal with any matters big or small in the entire Nanzhen.
This also gave those who wanted to plant a thorn in Jiang Chen an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
This resulted in many spies from other forces infiltrating the Nanzhen Jinyiwei.
Now, although King Huai'an said that he had helped Jiang Chen clean up.
But Jiang Chen didn't dare to believe what King Huai'an said. Only things he had confirmed would make him feel at ease.
After chatting with King Huaian about the specific cooperation matters.
Jiang Chen then took the token of King Huai'an and left.
After leaving the prefect's mansion, Jiang Chen did not return to the small courtyard where he was staying.
Instead, after circling around a few times, he took a carriage to the Jiangnan branch of Lao Ba Secret Restaurant.
"Sir, you are here!"
A sharp-eyed waiter recognized his own shopkeeper at a glance and hurriedly came up to greet him with a smile.
"Shh, keep your voice down and take me to the secret room."
After signaling the waiter not to make any noise, Jiang Chen gave the order.
Under the protection of the waiter, Jiang Chen quickly walked to the backyard.
Then, they came to the underground secret room.
Not long after, Liu Wei and the two brothers Qi Laoer and Qi Laosi, who were summoned by Jiang Chen, walked in together.
"Greetings, sir!"
"Get up, and stop playing these nonsense with me."
Jiang Chen stepped forward and helped the three of them up one by one, then leaned back in his chair.
"Sir, I wonder if you have called us here for something?"
Seeing that Jiang Chen said nothing, he had been staring at him since the first time he entered the door.
Liu Wei walked forward puzzledly and asked Jiang Chen.
"Liu Wei, did you know that there are spies inside Nanzhen?!"
As he spoke, Jiang Chen glared at Liu Wei.
"Your Excellency, I don't know."
"But those people are all my fellow countrymen and former comrades-in-arms!"
"It is impossible for them to betray me."
Liu Wei responded loudly and righteously, not feeling that there was anything wrong with it.
Listening to Liu Wei's words, Jiang Chen laughed instead of getting angry.
"I know you are comrades-in-arms, old brothers who have been through life and death together."
"But I don't want there to be spies from other forces among the Nanzhen Jinyiwei."
"Did you know ?!"
As he spoke, Jiang Chen glanced at Liu Wei coldly.
Liu Wei, who came from a military background and had fought on the battlefield several times, couldn't help but shudder when Jiang Chen looked at him like this.
Seeing that the beating was almost over, Jiang Chen calmed himself down.
Then, he continued to speak to Liu Wei.
"Okay, from now on, regarding the selection of Jinyiwei."
"Be sure to pay close attention!"
"If they don't meet the two points I'm going to talk about next, then they are not good enough for the Jinyiwei."
"But they won't even move, just mouths open waiting for food!"
"First, we will not accept those who are untrustworthy, weak-minded, or narrow-minded."
"Second, you must swear to be loyal to the Royal Guards for life and obey their orders!"
"Do you remember it, Liu Wei?"
After setting two rules, Jiang Chen looked at Liu Wei.
At this time, Liu Wei finally stood up straight.
He bowed solemnly to Jiang Chen.
"Liu Wei, as you command!"
"Okay, Qi Lao Er, Qi Lao Si, and you two."
"Find a few smart and skilled brothers. I have a mission for them."
"Yes, sir."
After receiving Jiang Chen's order, the two brothers Qi Lao Er and Qi Lao Si turned around and walked out of the secret room.
Then, Jiang Chen gave Liu Wei some instructions on how to form a private army.
Only then did I finally put down the big stone in my heart!
When Jiang Chen walked out of the secret room, it was already late at night.
Jiang Chen stopped looking at the night sky and the moon that cast a silver glow over the entire earth.
After standing there for a while, Jiang Chen came back to his senses and got into the carriage with the help of the Jinyiwei.
After returning to the courtyard, Su Qingcheng had already prepared hot water.
After helping Jiang Chen bathe and change clothes, he lay down beside Jiang Chen.
As the little man in his mind began to sway, Jiang Chen fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, far away in the imperial palace in the imperial capital.
The emperor was just doing favors to Concubine Shu in his bedroom. The sweaty emperor took a bath and changed his clothes with the help of the palace maids, then returned to the imperial study.
Looking at the empty imperial study, the emperor felt a little lonely.
"Hey, I wonder when Su Dingxia and Jiang Chen will be back."
"I kind of miss Jiang Chen's flattery."
As the emperor finished speaking, a cold light suddenly flashed towards his neck!
"who?!"
