Ning Yue had some bad premonitions in his heart, but he smiled and said calmly:
"Eunuch Mo, after I finish handing over the matters, I will go to the palace to visit the prince."
"That's good, our family won't prevent them from taking care of you."
Eunuch Mo nodded.
After Eunuch Mo left, a middle-aged official with a delicate face said:
"I and my subordinates have prepared some drinks for you in the Shengyi Tower, so that you can catch the wind and wash away the dust. I hope you will show your respect."
This person is Xue Heng, the deputy commander.
Ning Yue nodded, he just took the opportunity to get to know these officials.
After arriving at Shengyi Tower, everyone toasted to Ning Yue.
Xiao Ruobing on the side introduced Ning Yue to the situation in Zhennan City.
Xiao Jingnan, the lord of Zhennan City, was in the early stage of the Fusion Realm and was one of Gu Xinghe's confidants.
Yu Bin, the commander of the Inspection Department, was the chief disciple of the Wanxiang Sect in the late stage of becoming a god.
The other two deputy commanders are both in the middle stage of divine transformation.
Qin Yuelou, the deputy commander of the picket department, is a stunning woman with curvy figures and graceful figure in the middle stage of transformation.
In addition, Xue Heng, the deputy commander of the picket department, came from the Xue family in Kyoto in the late stage of becoming a god. He once practiced in the Shanling Academy of Creation Mansion.
The commander of the Demon Suppression Division is temporarily vacant, and the deputy commander is Yang Chen, whom Ning Yue had met before.
In addition, a deputy commander is Wang Qiming from the Wang family in Kyoto, who has not yet taken up his post.
At the banquet, both Qin Yuelou and Xue Heng came, as did officials of all sizes from the picket department.
Only a few officials came from the City Lord's Mansion, the Demon Suppression Department, and the Inspection Department.
Ning Yue seemed to be familiar with everyone.
After drinking, Ning Yue returned to the mansion.
Xiao Ruobing came here before Ning Yue. He had already set up a spirit gathering array in the mansion and bought some slaves and maids.
The mansion is very large, with hundreds of rooms, full of spiritual energy, and hundreds of servants.
These servants were purchased from the merchant guild in the city, and they were all low-level monks.
Some sold themselves voluntarily, some were the children of criminals, and some were monks from small border countries who were annihilated by the Immortal Court of Creation and sold as trophies.
"Brother Yue, the water in this picket department is very deep. It turns out that Xue Heng is expected to take over as the commander.
Shen Yilong reported on the collusion with commander Shen Yilong and Li Wansong.
But in the end, the position of co-commander fell on you, and he probably felt a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart. "
Xiao Ruobing told him.
Ning Yue thought of the middle-aged man with a delicate face. Although he was very respectful to him, his eyes were still somewhat unconvinced.
"If he dares to disobey, I will kill the chicken to scare the monkeys and show my dignity."
The corners of Ning Yue's mouth raised slightly, revealing a cold smile.
The next day, Ning Yue went to the general office of the picket department to take up his post.
Officials and subordinates at all levels in the picket department came out to greet Ning Yue, who was conducting a count on the school grounds.
The picket departments in the southern region are also divided into internal affairs yamen and foreign affairs yamen, but they are different from those in Cangnan City.
This internal affairs yamen specializes in processing official documents from various counties, accepting reports, filing cases for investigation, and collecting intelligence.
The head of the internal affairs yamen is Qin Yuelou, a woman who still has charm and a hot figure.
Although she was wearing an official robe, her proud curves were still on full display.
The Foreign Affairs Yamen has the responsibilities of inspecting various counties, supervising all parties, and making arrests.
For example, if the Southern Region Inspectorate Division receives a report from a certain county that an official is corrupt, and the local county's Inspectorate Division cannot handle it, the Southern Region Inspectorate Division's general office will handle it.
The Internal Affairs Office will send people to investigate and verify the matter.
If the situation is true, Qin Yuelou, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, will report the matter to Ning Yue.
Ning Yue issued a law enforcement order and handed it over to the Foreign Affairs Yamen.
Xue Heng will dispatch personnel based on the strength of the principal criminal to arrest him and bring him back for interrogation.
Therefore, the people in the Foreign Affairs Yamen are all elite soldiers and generals. There are three to four hundred people. The lowest level is the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, and most of them are at the Nascent Soul Realm.
Although the internal affairs yamen has more people, with thousands of people, their level is slightly lower, except for a few investigators whose level is slightly higher.
In addition to the two major yamen, there are also officials such as prison envoys, treasury envoys, archives envoys, and supervisory envoys. These institutions are independent of the two major yamen and are under the direct jurisdiction of Ningyue.
These official positions are all fifth-grade official positions, which are similar to the deputy governor of the picket department in the county.
Currently, these positions are still vacant.
Because of being implicated by Shen Yilong, many people had close relationships with Shen Yilong and were implicated.
Ning Yue appointed Xiao Ruobing as the archives envoy and Jiang Guangzhong as the supervisor.
The position of archival historian is very vacant, but this position is critical because it is responsible for the archiving of classified documents and intelligence personnel information.
Ning Yue really had no one around him, and he couldn't trust others easily, so he let Xiao Ruobing take charge of this position.
The inspector monitors corruption within the Southern Region Picket Department and supervises the security work of the Picket Department.
Ning Yue asked Jiang Guangzhong to take this position.
Under Ning Yue's arrangement, they conducted an assessment and successfully took office.
In addition, there is a vacancy for the prison envoy, but Ning Yue does not have a suitable candidate for the time being.
In the past few days, Ning Yue has just taken over the affairs of the picket department, and many people have come to visit.
There are big families in Zhennan City, local snakes, some officials, as well as some bosses of chambers of commerce and heads of sects.
Some of these people come to seek official status and some come to give gifts.
Ning Yue was a little confused.
Why did Shen Yilong collude with Li Wansong and others?
There is a lot of money in this position, so there is no need to collude with them.
Maybe there is some mystery here.
There are four powerful families in Zhennan City, namely the Xiao family, the Yang family, the Gongsun family and the Qin family.
The Xiao family is the family of Xiao Jingnan, the lord of the city.
The Yang family is Yang Chen's family. Yang Chen can become the commander of the demon-slaying army, on the one hand, he also has the support of his family.
The Gongsun family is the family of Gongsun Tieniu, and Gongsun Tieniu currently ranks first on the list of gods.
The Qin family was Qin Yuelou's family, and Qin Yuelou served as deputy commander under him.
None of these people are fuel efficient.
Although Ning Yue has a preliminary understanding of the situation in Zhenna City, his eyesight is now dark.
I don’t know where the Demon Slayer Army case was investigated.
However, he still sent Jiang Guangzhong to the Dongshan Spirit Mine and asked him to find the soldiers of the Demon-Slaying Army who had escaped.
Logically speaking, these people should be innocent of any crime, but now they are burdened with the crime of running away from the battlefield, and they have no choice but to go mining.
A few days later, Ning Yue set off to visit Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Although Ning Yue doesn't want to see Gu Xinghe now, this is Gu Xinghe's territory after all.
It would be more appropriate to pay him a visit.
Ning Yue had just arrived at the palace when he saw Gu Chenfeng walking out of the palace, waving his folding fan, grinning and saying scornfully:
"Ning Yue, you came just in time. I have another errand for you to run."
