Chapter 17: Competition for the throne

After listening to Xing Ying's introduction to the Six Gates, Yue Suwu secretly praised himself. He didn't expect that it would be so difficult to be a Six Gates detective. In addition to horse steps, swords and bows, he also had to know many things.

Yue Su nodded and asked, "Xing Ying, how old are you and how long have you been here at Liumen?"

"Sir, I am thirty-six years old this year. I joined the Six Sects at the age of sixteen. It has been twenty years now." Xing Ying bowed and replied.

"I have been on the job for twenty years. Can you tell me how you have grown up since you joined the Six Sects at the age of sixteen? Also, what are the Six Sects' requirements for recruiting agents?" Yue Su smiled.

asked.

"Returning to your lord, the Six Gates recruits agents. Most of them choose young men from military households with bad backgrounds. When I joined the Six Gates at the humble position, I was just like them. I started with bow, sword, horse and step, and then learned some martial arts.

The thing above, because he had merit in handling the case and caught the thief, he was promoted to the position of chief catcher. Five years ago, after the previous chief catcher was transferred, he took over the position of chief catcher." Xing Ying bowed and answered.

He climbed up from the grassroots level little by little. After listening to Xing Ying's words, Yue Su appreciated this person even more. Immediately, Yue Su came up with the idea of ​​​​six doors. This is an extremely effective system. On the surface,

Look, although they are not as popular as Dongchang and Jinyiwei, their real strength can definitely compete with them.

He now has a lot of subordinates, mainly Chen Dong's gang of children and the people from the escort agency. In order to cover up others' deception, those children are now staying in the escort agency and have not been brought back to the government office. Yue Su is now determined to send the children to the six gates for training.

But then I thought about it, and felt that something was wrong. I had brought in so many people at once, and it would definitely not be good for the news to spread. Besides, if there were no spies from Dongchang here, then something was going on.

Chen Dong and others should stay in the escort agency to practice martial arts, but they still have to send people in from the six gates. Yue Su thought for a moment and said, "Xingying, how many agents are there in the six gates now?"

"Sir, there are six squads of police officers, a total of 480 people, all on duty." Xing Ying replied.

"That's right." Yue Su nodded with satisfaction and said, "Gather everyone together, the headquarters has something to announce."

"Yes, sir." Xing Ying agreed, and immediately asked the four of Bao Zhan to gather their subordinates. After a while, both those on duty and those who were practicing were all gathered in the martial arts field.

The police officers who have been practicing will now be dressed up and stand neatly, looking well-trained.

Seeing the orderly queue, Yue Su was satisfied and led his men to the opposite side of the queue. All the agents knelt down and shouted in unison: "See you, Lord!"...

"Everyone, get up." Yue Su raised his hand to signal everyone to get up. After the detectives got up, Yue Su said loudly: "The headquarters came to inspect the six doors today and was very satisfied with you. Just now I heard from Detective Xing

As the leader said, there are still two vacancies for two leaders in the six gates. If any of you are confident that you can take on this responsibility, please step out of the queue!"

Normally, the newly arrived Lord of the Ministry must arrange for his confidants to do this job. Why the Lord who took office today would say such a thing is really surprising. Not only the head catcher of the six gates, but also the head catcher who accompanied Yue was surprised.

Jin Chan, Yin Zhu, Tong Zhou and others who came to Su were also puzzled.

Men like Jin Chan who have traveled around the world have naturally heard of the name of Liumen, and they also know the reputation of Liumen. Today, I followed the adults to Liumen, and there happened to be a headhunter, and I was thinking about it.

, how can I arrange it for them? It is very prestigious to be the head catcher of six doors.

Tong Zhou also has this idea. Even though he is now the chief catcher of Shuntian Mansion and his life is quite leisurely, Tong Zhou is also a person with pursuits. The head catcher of the six doors can be said to be the highest level of the head catcher. He also

How not to want to enter six doors.

But they also understand that what the adults say must make sense.

Not to mention, there are some policemen in the six gates who don’t have stage fright. Soldiers who don’t want to be generals are not good soldiers. Since the adults asked, and there are ready vacancies, of course I have to fight for them. At that moment, they walked out one after another.

Number twenty or so.

Yue Su was very satisfied when he saw so many people coming forward. After all, only such detectives are the best. Then he said: "I am very pleased to see you all so enthusiastic. It shows that my six

It is true that Captor Xing said that all of them are heroes. But there are only two positions of Captor, and the best one needs to be chosen to take the job. In this way..."

Having said this, Yue Su looked at Xing Ying and said: "Xing Baotou, please write down all their names now and show them to the headquarters."

Xing Ying naturally knew these people, so he immediately asked someone to get paper, pen, and table. He immediately wrote down their names and presented them to Yue Su for review.

Yue Su glanced at it and thought to himself: "Fanzi's craftsmen are generally relatively low-key and will never take the initiative to reveal themselves. There should be none among these twenty or so people. We can recruit these people first in the future."

"

Yue Su counted the number of people, there were twenty-five in total, and said: "I am new to this department, and I don't know which one of you is the most suitable. I just saw how diligently you have practiced, and I think you all have extraordinary skills. This department

I’d like to make a suggestion here. Let’s have a competition between the guys. Whoever has the best martial arts skills will be the head catcher. What do you think?”

Originally, whoever is appointed as the head catcher must at least be convincing, especially in the six gates, no more than other yamen. These catchers are all elite. If you ask some incompetent to be the head catcher, no one will be convinced. Dare to stand up.

The twenty-five of them are all the best among the six-door police officers. Credit goes to merit and hard work comes to them. If Yue Su casually inserts two of them, they won’t say anything on the surface, but secretly they will

They were also dissatisfied. Now I proposed to let them compete in a martial arts competition. Whoever has better martial arts would be the leader. Of course these people were happy. They immediately shouted in unison: "I will wait for you to do whatever you want!"...

"Very good!" Yue Su nodded and said: "I have been an official in the Honbu Hall for many years. From the county magistrate to the position I am today, I have many people following me. They were all policemen, and now they are head catchers.

I have also been interested in Liumen for a long time, and I am determined to join. If this were another yamen, the main department would just say a word and arrange two to act as catchers. But Liumen is the leader in the yamen after all.

, everyone is an elite. Once the Honbu Hall does this, it is inevitable that some people will be dissatisfied and say that the Honbu Hall is seeking favoritism. In this way, the Honbu Hall selects seven people, mixes them with you, and competes with each other until the end. The remaining

The two men were promoted to the position of catchers. You can rest assured that no matter who wins in the end, our department will never break its promise and will treat everyone equally! What do you think?"

That's what Yue Su had in mind. It's not impossible to directly arrange for someone to come in as the head catcher, but when people look at it, they will know that they came in through the back door. How can these elite catchers be convinced? If it depends on the competition, it is really

The new head catcher is a different matter. At least the catchers will know that in addition to having a backer, the new head catcher also has real abilities. Yue Su is relatively reassured by the skills of Jin Chan and others.

He expected to be more than 50% sure. Even if he couldn't earn both places, it would be good to get one. And he didn't believe that these six-door agents could really defeat Jin Chan alone.

them.

Yue Su's thoughts, Jin Chan and others behind him, immediately understood that this was to let the brothers show their strength and take down the six-door arrester with their true skills. Isn't it just a martial arts competition?

Let them see how powerful our brothers are. Let the people from the Six Gates know that we can become the head catcher of Shuntian Mansion, not just because of the help of adults.

A policeman who can go out and stand up can be regarded as arrogant. Since the Lord said so, let's compete. We all train day and night. How can we not be better than you, the pampered poor masters? Although some people also understand, Mr. Yue

This is to establish your authority and convince others, so you have to really show off your skills. If you lose face, don’t blame us. Twenty-five people bowed together and replied: "We are only following your orders!"

There are many people who can work in the six gates, from bottom to top, with quick thinking. Otherwise, how would you complete some assassination and ambush tasks? There are many people who can guess Yue Su's thoughts at the moment, and the chief arrester Xingying is no exception.

It has become common for newly appointed ministers to arrange some confidants to serve as head catchers at the six gates. Those two vacancies are specially reserved for Yue Su. Now you are competing to win the head catchers and establish your authority by the way. This is not to deny me Liu Meng.

Do the brothers of Men's Gate take it seriously? Do you think that I, Liu Men, are just like other yamen gates, raising spies who can only bully people with excessive numbers, or bully and bully the common people on the street?

Xing Ying thought more about it. After all, it was Lord Shangshu who said this. If he really beat down all Lord Yue's men, there would be no glory in Lord Shangshu's face. But if he couldn't beat those pampered and inferior masters,

Wouldn’t it make me look like I have six doors?

After thinking about it, he thought that whether he won or lost, it would not be too good. So, he stood next to Yue Su, bowed and said: "My lord, is there something wrong with this? What if something happens to the sword's eye...

"

Yue Su understood what he meant, waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. When you practice, don't you all use unedged weapons? As long as you don't intentionally kill people, that's it. This headquarters has made up its mind.

That’s it. Mr. Xing, you will arrange for people to build the arena later, and after the court is dismissed tomorrow, you will bring people here to preside over it in person."

Seeing Yue Su's firm tone, Xing Ying couldn't say anything else, so he had to bow and agree. "I obey my orders!"

After things were arranged, Yue Su led the people out of the six gates. Not to mention that Xing Ying ordered people to build the arena, but that after Yue Su returned to the Xingbu Yamen, he briefly got familiar with it before returning to Shuntian Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at Houya, Yue Su immediately summoned his subordinates and asked his subordinates who planned to compete on the stage tomorrow and seize the six gates by force to capture the head.

Everyone knows the status of the Six Gates, and no one wants to go there. But the agents of the Six Gates are all good people, like Li Haoquan, Zhang Wei, and Wang Shun. Although they want to go, they know it and they don’t dare to go.

Say something.

But Jin Chan, Yin Zhu, Tong Zhou, and Tie Qiu were eager to give it a try. They promised seven people, but now there are only four, so how can it be done? Yue Su asked Jin Chan to go to the Changfeng Escort Bureau to find out who among the escort agencies

Who is willing? As soon as they heard that they were going to Liumen to capture the head, the escorts scrambled. In the end, Li Zhong decided on the candidate. He himself had to participate, and the other two were Kong Ren and Cao Yu.

.

All seven people have decided to go to the six gates tomorrow to compete for the head catcher!
