Seeing Su Xin take Ji Fangge and the others away, Ji Yanxiu was both excited and a bit unhappy.
The reason for his excitement was very simple. With 13 tokens gathered, it could be said that he was already sitting on the throne with half his buttocks sitting on it.
However, Ji Yanxiu was also interested in the Taihang Stronghold.
The throne was no longer an issue, but Ji Yanxiu didn't want to be a puppet emperor after ascending to the throne.
Ji Yanxiu knew that he didn't have a strong prestige like Ji Haodian, so it was unknown whether his subordinates would follow his orders or not.
Therefore, Ji Yanxiu had to have a few trusted aides. The Taihang Stronghold didn't have any complicated relationships, and they were powerful. Ji Yanxiu needed to rope them in.
However, he was still excited just now, but he didn't expect that Su Xin would beat him to it.
After returning to Six Fan School with Ji Fangge and the others, Su Xin went straight to the point, "Master Ji, I know what your Taihang Stronghold is worried about. Back when the world was in chaos, your Taihang Stronghold was at its peak. The righteous sects wouldn't touch you, and they didn't dare to.
However, as the world is gradually stabilizing, your stronghold is starting to feel the pressure, especially the Shaolin Temple.
However, the Shaolin Temple was suppressed by the Good Fortune Gate in the past, so they couldn't care less about you. As for the future, that's hard to say. "
Ji Fangge nodded. He didn't hide anything and said, "That's right. Master is worried that the Shaolin Temple will make a move against us in the future. That's why we came to Shengjing City. We want to reach an agreement with the court and seek protection."
Bu Qianlong seemed to think that Ji Fangge's words were damaging the reputation of the Taihang Stronghold. He couldn't help but snort, "What's there to be afraid of? In my opinion, if those bald donkeys from the Shaolin Temple dare to come, they will leave behind a few hundred heads! "
Ji Fangge rolled his eyes at him and said, "But the result was that the Taihang Mountain Village, which had been established for hundreds of years, was destroyed in one day. We became one of the achievements of the Shaolin Temple in slaying demons and defending the Dao."
Bu Qianlong immediately shut his mouth. He was arrogant, but he was not an idiot. He knew the disparity between his Taihang Mountain Fort and the Shaolin Temple.
Su Xin said in a deep voice, "Ji Yanchang gave you positions in the military. I can't give you his promise, but I can give you positions in Six Fan School, and it's a position with real power, unlike Ji Yanchang, who gave you a title without increasing your power."
Ji Fangge was surprised. "Oh? Where is it? "
Su Xin smiled and said, "Is the position of one of the four Super Arresters enough?"
Ji Fangge was stunned. One of the four Super Arresters? But now the positions of the four Super Arresters were all full. How could Su Xin make a position for himself?
Su Xin explained, "Lord Tie Ao has been promoted to the True Martial Realm. You know this. So as long as there is no earth-shattering event in Six Fan School, Lord Tie Ao will not do anything. He will also step down from his position as the chief of detectives.
Moreover, the one who will take over the position will be Lord Tie Zhan. So there will be one empty position among the four Super Arresters.
You should know the distribution of power in Six Fan School. Fang Jiuyuan and Liu Wuqian are not on the same side as the Tie family, but I am on the side of the Tie family.
So in this way, the four new Super Arresters must be on the side of the Tie family.
But the problem is, whether it is the disciples of the Tie family or those trained by the Tie family, their strength and experience are not enough to take the position of the four Super Arresters. So as long as the Taihang Mountain Village is on the side of the Tie family, I believe Lord Tie Zhan will not object to giving you the position of the four Super Arresters. "
Ji Fangge said in a deep voice, "Then who are you going to give the position of the four Super Arresters to?"
Su Xin pointed at Ji Fangge and said, "Brother Ji, of course. Don't look down on the four Super Arresters of the imperial court. Although the four Super Arresters require ability to pass the test, but now is a special case. The previous test of ability cannot be used, so we can only rely on strength.
Master Ji, you are definitely an expert among the Harmonious Spirit realm experts. So only you are qualified to take the position of one of the four Super Arresters. "
Su Xin looked at Bu Qianlong and said, "Brother Bu, the chief of detectives of the Henan Province, Ling Zhen, is about to retire due to old age. I am going to give this position to you.
I believe in the intelligence of Six Fan School. Brother Bu, you all know that if the Six Fan School of Henan Province is in your hands, you can monitor the movements of the Shaolin Temple at any time. It will be very beneficial for your Taihang Mountain Village. "
Ji Fangge's eyes suddenly lit up. He was really tempted by Su Xin's suggestion. Compared to the positions promised by Ji Yanchang, it was obvious that joining the Six Fan School as one of the Four Great Super Arresters was more beneficial.
As one of the most important military departments of the imperial court, Six Fan School's strength was beyond doubt. Even if Ji Fangge did not have any desire to fight for power in Taihang Mountain Village, he could not help but be tempted to become one of the four Super Arresters.
As for relying on the Tie family, it was not a big deal. Ji Fangge was not an idiot. Even if he joined the imperial court, he could not be neutral. He had to choose a direction to rely on.
The Tie family had a True Martial Realm martial artist, and they controlled eighty percent of the power in the entire Six Doors. If they did not side with the Tie family, could they be like Fang Jiuyuan and Liu Wuqian and go against the Tie family? What a joke.
"Then what about my master?" Ji Fangge asked.
Su Xin knocked on the table and said, "Master Ke's strength is too strong. If he comes to Six Fan School, I will not be able to arrange it. Therefore, I suggest that Master Ke directly join the Imperial Consecrator Hall and become a consecrator of the Zhou Kingdom.
However, Master Ke does not need to stay in the Imperial Consecrator Hall all day. You can stay in Taihang Mountain Village during normal times. Only when the imperial court is in danger will Master Ke lend a hand. "
Ji Fangge nodded and said, "Of course."
There was no free lunch in this world. If Taihang Mountain Village wanted the protection of the Zhou Kingdom, then they had to pay a certain price. Otherwise, why would the Zhou Kingdom spend so much effort to protect Taihang Mountain Village?
Moreover, with Ke Yanyue's identity, it was not shameful to stay in the Imperial Consecrator Hall.
Previously, Ji Yanchang had asked Ke Yanyue to be the Great General Manager of the army. She was supposed to be on par with a group of Harmonious Spirit Realm experts. Although the people of Taihang Mountain Stronghold knew that the position of Great General was too important to be given to Ke Yanyue, they still felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
Now that Ke Yanyue went to the Imperial Consecrator Hall as a consecrator, there would not be such a problem.
There was not much hierarchy in the Imperial Consecrator Hall. The commander of the Imperial Consecrator Hall was a True Martial Realm expert, Zhao Wunian. The rest of the people were treated equally.
Su Xin looked at Ji Fangge and said, "Now, I have put forward my conditions. If Brother Ji can agree, then we will be colleagues in the future."
Ji Fangge cupped his hands towards Su Xin and said, "This matter is of great importance, so I do not dare to make a decision so easily. I need to go back and report to the Master."
Su Xin smiled and said, "Then I will wait here for Brother Ji's good news."
Ji Fangge's words actually meant that he had agreed. However, such a big matter had to be reported to Ke Yanyue first.
Bu Qianlong also cupped his hands towards Su Xin and said goodbye. His attitude was very polite and not as arrogant as before.
He was just a little reckless, but he was not stupid. He knew what status and strength Su Xin had.
In terms of strength, Su Xin could completely crush him. Ji Fangge, who was second only to the Master Ke Yanyue in the stronghold, lost to Su Xin. One could imagine how strong Su Xin was.
In terms of power, Su Xin was second only to the Tie Family in the Six Fan School. If they really joined the Six Fan School and Su Xin was their guide, they would naturally have to be on good terms. Bu Qianlong certainly would not offend Su Xin.
After persuading Bu Qianlong, Su Xin also went to find Tie Zhan and told him about the situation here. Tie Zhan did not even think about it and directly agreed.
For the Six Fan School, accepting a bandit force was nothing.
When Su Xin was in Jiangnan, he also recruited a large number of bandits to strengthen the Six Fan School. At that time, Liu Fengwu was the only one in the Six Fan School who deliberately targeted Su Xin. That was why everyone in the Six Fan School complained. However, in fact, no one took it seriously.
In fact, some of the people in the Six Fan School did not have a good background. Some of them were even worse than bandits.
Moreover, strictly speaking, Taihang Mountain Stronghold was not bandits. They were called bandits.
If anyone dared to say the word 'bandits' in front of Taihang Mountain Stronghold, his head would be hung in front of the mountain gate of Taihang Mountain the next day.
This time, Taihang Mountain Stronghold decided to join the Six Fan School. Not only did Taihang Mountain Stronghold get the protection of the imperial court, but Six Fan School also got a lot of help.
On the other side, Ji Yanxiu also could not wait to hand over the token to Ji Xuanyuan, proving that he could now inherit the throne.
To be honest, Ji Xuanyuan wasn't very satisfied with Ji Yanxiu. It should be said that including the previous crown prince, Ji Yancheng, and the others, as well as the current princes, there wasn't a single one of them that he liked.
After all, Ji Haodian was the first one. His sons could not beat their fathers, so it was normal for them to be weaker.
Therefore, he could only pick a big one from the small ones. Since Ji Yanxiu defeated the other princes, the position of Crown Prince would be his.
Therefore, Ji Xuanyuan did not delay and immediately ordered people to prepare for the ceremony. Tomorrow, the ceremony would be held to confer Ji Yanxiu the title of Crown Prince.
After he became the Crown Prince, he would have to prepare for the coronation ceremony. According to the rules, after he became the Crown Prince for a month, the coronation hall would be almost ready, and the ceremony could be carried out.
As soon as the news came out, the sects in the Jianghu shook their heads. This Zhou Kingdom was really quick. They thought that the Zhou Kingdom would be in chaos for a period of time before a successor could be selected. They did not expect that Zhou Kingdom would be so quick. It only took him a few days to finish the process.
