My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 362 The Newly Appointed, Imperial City Compass Commander!
Imperial City Compass and Imperial Court.

It began the moment Zeng Anmin stepped into the courtyard.

He felt as if someone was watching him from head to toe.

Everyone treated him with great respect.

However, it seemed that none of their respect came from the heart.

"Greetings, Zengtidu!"

The Southern Imperial City Office is located in the southern part of the Imperial City Office, covering an area of ​​at least ten acres.

It is the largest of the four major imperial courts.

It is also the place with the most complicated tasks in the Imperial City Guard.

Because within the jurisdiction of Nantidu, there is a place called the Imperial City.

It is evident that the clerks and officials of the Southern District Court had the closest interactions with the officials on a daily basis.

"Ah."

Zeng Anmin's expression was calm.

He looked at the dark mass of heads in front of him.

Today, there are more than 300 officials left in the yamen alone.

Each of them was at least a ninth-rank military officer, and even in the army, the lowest rank was a squad leader.

Many of them were eighth-rank military officers.

In the Southern Tidu Court, there are two Tisi (officials in charge of the court).

A martial artist named Dongfang Sheng, a peak fifth-rank martial artist.

A man named Sima Nan, a fourth-rank military officer.

This is the essence of Nanti Duyuan.

This actually shows that the Imperial City South Supervisory Office is stronger than the North Supervisory Office led by Bai Ziqing.

Now, he was greeted by Dongfang Sheng, a martial artist at the peak of the fifth rank.

He has a relatively honest appearance.

His smile is endearingly simple.

But Zeng Anmin never judges people solely on appearances.

As a newcomer, he knew that how to get along with subordinates was an art.

"Where is Sima Tisi?"

Zeng Anmin looked around calmly and sat down in front of the chair prepared by the clerk.

Compared to this one named Dongfang Sheng.

Zeng Anmin actually wanted to meet the man named Sima Nan more.

With Xiang Wangxian dead, the most likely candidate to become the new Tidu was actually Sima Nan.

After all, he was a martial artist at the fourth-grade Grandmaster level, and his abilities and qualifications were absolutely enough to convince everyone.

However, Sima Nan has a major flaw here.

He was not from a prestigious family; otherwise, he would have been promoted many years earlier.

Even if they weren't promoted in the Imperial City Bureau, they would be transferred to another place for promotion.

Zeng Anmin straightened his sleeves slightly, then looked at the men who were bowing to him.

"Reporting to the commander, Sima Tizi has gone on patrol."

"When are you coming back?"

Zeng Anmin slowly raised his head and looked at Dongfang Sheng.

Dongfang Sheng hesitated for a moment, then bowed and said, "This subordinate is unaware; the patrol schedule for the imperial city is not fixed."

"Oh."

Zeng Anmin nodded slightly.

Patrolling the imperial city has always been an extremely serious task.

It's not like anyone can just go whenever they want.

Imperial Guards.

Nantiduyuan.

And the Imperial Sword Camp.

Each department has its own patrol department, but who goes to patrol the imperial city and when is not fixed. Instead, it is decided by drawing lots jointly by cabinet officials and eunuchs.

This is mainly to prevent those with ulterior motives from exploiting the patterns to commit unjust acts.

"No need for formalities."

Zeng Anmin's voice carried out.

"Shetidu".

The grapes slowly raised their heads, and then looked directly at Zeng Anmin without any hesitation.

These gazes included scrutiny, respect, admiration, and of course, dissatisfaction.

It's obvious that he's an official parachuted in from the central government, so naturally some of his subordinates will be dissatisfied.

"Although this is my first time serving as the commander."

"But I am not some ignorant and incompetent spoiled brat."

"I am a genius of Confucianism and Taoism. I handled cases in Jiangnan and returned to the capital to work with Bai Ziqing on cases. I have gone through fire and water. I am a true iron man who has been forged in mountains of corpses and seas of blood! A tough guy!"

Zeng Anmin slowly released his aura.

He not only possessed the aura of a fourth-rank Confucian scholar, but also an extremely astonishing killing intent.

That's the combat strength of a fourth-rank martial artist, combined with the murderous aura emanating from the "Eternal Night Three Slashes"!
For a moment, the entire South Tidu Courtyard was filled with the suffocating pressure emanating from Zeng Anmin.

Everyone felt a lump in their throat.

"I have solved every case you have solved."

"Cases you haven't solved, I have solved!"

Zeng Anmin's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, the sharp light piercing the hearts of everyone present like a dagger.
"Back then on the battlefield, when facing a fourth-rank demon king, I didn't even blink an eye!"

"Don't even think about playing the game of feigning compliance with me!"

"And don't just stand there squatting without doing anything!"

"Anyone who dares to shirk their duties when I see them..."

Zeng Anmin's voice grew increasingly cold.

His aura was like a violent storm:
"Those who should leave, leave; those who should be killed, kill!"

At this moment, he exuded an unprecedented aura of killing intent.

Even Dongfang Sheng, a martial artist at the peak of the fifth rank, was finding it difficult to withstand.

It felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on my chest.

His face turned bright red.

Looking at Zeng Anmin's body, his eyes flashed with horror.

"but……"

Zeng Anmin then changed the subject.

The oppressive atmosphere on the field suddenly dissipated.

Everyone was caught off guard, and some even felt their legs go weak.

Dongfang Sheng, who was closest to Zeng Anmin, was the first to be affected.

He even wanted to sit down on the ground.

Fortunately, Zeng Anmin gave him face.

He calmly approached Dongfang Sheng, a smile on his face and a gentle voice:

"If you are all willing to work together with me."

"Of course, there are also many benefits."

As he spoke, he reached out and took Dongfang Sheng's hand.

They pulled him back from the brink of falling.

Dongfang Sheng's mind was somewhat blank at this moment.

It took him a long time to come to his senses.

Those eyes looked at Zeng Anmin again, with far more respect and fear than before.

"I will never forget the teachings of Zeng Tidu!"

After saying this, he slowly lowered his head.

"Okay, everyone can go home now! Go about your own business."

Zeng Anmin turned his head with a smile and looked at the grapes.

……

The courtyard was rather quiet.

The grapes did not scatter immediately.

Instead, they hesitated and looked up at Dongfang Sheng.

Waiting for Dongfang Sheng to speak.

See this scene.

Zeng Anmin narrowed his eyes slightly.

He looked towards Dongfang Sheng.

Dongfang Sheng's face was flushed with anger, and he cursed at the grapes:
"What are you looking at me for! Didn't you hear what Zeng Tidu said?!"

"Yes!"

The grapes were scolded and ran away in panic, not daring to stay for a moment longer, and quickly scattered in all directions.

Not long after.

Only Zeng Anmin and Dongfang Sheng remained in the entire compound.

“These brothers are all uneducated peasants. Please don’t take any of their shortcomings to heart. I will definitely teach them properly.”

After these people left.

The fear on Dongfang Sheng's face deepened, and he looked at Zeng Anmin with a smirk.

Zeng Anmin merely raised an eyebrow slightly, then chuckled softly and looked towards Dongfang Sheng:
"In that case, please inform me, Chief Inspector Dongfang."

"Where exactly did Sima Tisi go?"

what?
Dongfang Sheng was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to speak.

But then Zeng Anmin said with a smile:

"If I don't tell the truth this time, then in my eyes, Dongfang Tisi will be a liar who deceives his superiors and misleads his subordinates."

"Think carefully before you speak."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Sheng's expression changed slightly.
