After all, the other party had wanted to kill him, so it was hard to let him go. What if he was given a high position and he rebelled? However, the other party's military strength was much higher than that of the imperial master. If he really wanted to kill him, he could just rush into the palace. There was no need to disguise himself as his secret guard before taking action.
After the emperor understood, he immediately appointed Tianyuan and Song Longzhu as first-rank imperial secret guards, allowing them to dispatch the imperial guards, imperial guards and royal uniform guards at any time. He also rewarded them with a house in the inner city, ten slaves and a thousand taels of gold.
In addition, the monthly salary was 100 taels of gold, which was five times the monthly salary of the first-rank left and right prime ministers of the current dynasty.
But for Tian Yuan and Song Longzhu, as long as they have food, shelter and money to spend, it doesn’t matter whether the official rank is high or low.
Next, the emperor was in trouble again.
After being appointed as an official, one must be given an official seal. With the seal, Mu Nanjin's inner voice can be heard, which will expose many unknown things.
But without the official seal, the first-rank imperial secret guards would become a joke. Moreover, neither the Imperial Guards nor the Embroidered Uniform Guards would obey their orders unless the emperor gave them his own token to use.
The emperor's token is much more useful than the official seal. He wouldn't be stupid enough to joke with the token.
After much deliberation, the emperor finally gave them the official seal, then ordered Kan Chaoyan to tell them about Mu Nanjin's matter and asked them not to tell Mu Nanjin about this matter.
Tian Yuan felt incredible when he heard Kan Chaoyan say that civil and military officials could listen to Mu Nanjin's thoughts, and even suspected that Kan Chaoyan was lying to him.
It was not until the next morning, when the emperor was preparing to go to court, that he suddenly heard someone shouting in a delicate voice.
【Here I come, Tianyuan Dashuai. 】
Tian Yuan’s brows suddenly knotted into a knot.
Logically speaking, he had just arrived at the palace for duty today, so few people should know him. How could someone call him? Or was there another person named Tian Yuan in the palace?
[Tianyuan Dashuaiguo, where are you? 】
Tian Yuan listened carefully and found that the voice was somewhat similar to Mu Nanjin's, but the other party was a little girl who liked to have a stern face. Even the tone of her voice was cold and without any emotion. It was impossible for her to make such a coquettish voice.
Mu Nanjin couldn't find Tian Yuan and thought it was because the emperor didn't come to court.
But when it was time for the emperor to go to court, she still hadn't seen Tian Yuan. Then she remembered something.
[Damn it, I forgot that the emperor chose secret guards. Secret guards are supposed to hide in the dark to protect the emperor. It is impossible for others to discover their existence. Doesn't that mean I won't be able to see them in the future? ]
[I…I made a mistake. ]
Mu Nanjin regretted it so much that he wanted to hit his chest.
[Is it too late for me to regret now? ]
Tian Yuan, who was hiding in the dark and observing her, saw that she had no expression on her face and the ministers did not react at all. He couldn't help but wonder if he was hallucinating? Or could the civil and military officials in the court really hear Mu Nanjin's thoughts?
Or maybe it was not her inner voice but a transmission of her thoughts? Then she was transmitting what she wanted to say to others.
But the sound transmission carries spiritual power, and there was not a single spiritual power fluctuation in the sound he just heard.
Tian Yuan thought for a moment and decided to test her.
He came out from the darkness and walked in front of Mu Nanjin.
Mu Nanjin's eyes lit up.
[It’s God’s fault. 】
Tian Yuan asked calmly: "Mu Nanjin, do you recognize who I am?"
