Chapter 227 Four Princes in Beijing
In this era of opaque information and imperfect rules and regulations, what a leader of a small department can indeed be regarded as a rule. For example, in the Yulin Guard Youying, Li Xin can have the final say for all personnel transfers.
If Chen Sheng wanted to sue him, he would either go to the Central Army General Ye Lin, or go up and stab him directly to the emperor. Not to mention that he, a small captain, could not see the emperor, even if he saw him, Emperor Chengde would not pay attention to him.
As for Ye Lin, there is no need to say more. He does not care about the internal affairs of the Yulin Guard, and he will respect and will not interfere with all the arrangements made by the two men.
Chen Sheng's face turned red and he left with his hand.
This is the reason why people have to bow their heads under the roof. Although Li Xin is not old, as long as he gets his position, these people should respect him more, otherwise they will be blamed for being worn with small shoes.
Of course, the two camps under Chen Sheng may cause trouble for Li Xin in the future, so he will have to carefully examine the candidates in the next few days.
After Chen Sheng suffered a big loss, the other two captains looked at Li Xin with a change in their eyes. They thought that the new young man was from a big family, but they did not expect that this inconspicuous young man would turn against him as soon as he said that he would turn against him.
The two men clasped their fists at Li Xin, and their tone became much more respectful: "General Li Lang, if there is nothing wrong here, the lowly ranks will be surrendered."
Li Xin said lightly: "The people under Chen Sheng may be disobedient. I will draw substitutes from your two lieutenants camps at any time. You are ready."
Speaking of this, Li Xin paused and said, "If the subordinates of you two are not obedient, then Ben will have to borrow someone from Zuoying. The one who will be ridiculed at that time will not be Ben Jiang."
Both of these lieutenants lowered their heads and said respectfully: "Don't worry, General Lang, you must cooperate with General Lang."
Li Xin nodded and waved his hand: "Go all. I and Hou Lang are going to discuss with the inner guards about protecting the emperor. You can have more snacks in the matter of the right camp."
"yes!"
After the two captains walked away, the old captain Wang Zhong, who was standing aside, shook his head: "I can't tell, you are very wise when you scold them. You are born to be an official."
Nonsense, in the previous life...
Thinking of being a deputy manager in his previous life, Li Xin felt a daze. The things in his previous life have come to this point, and it is a bit like a dream, far away from now on.
He looked around and saw the wide schoolyard, with swords and guns everywhere.
This is the Great Jin Dynasty, the Yulinwei Camp.
Li Xin shook his head and smiled at Wang Zhong: "Master Wang made fun of it. It's all verbal skills and it's not a good thing. This time, the emperor's autumn hunting is of great importance. At that time, the Yulin Guard in the Right Camp will rely more on Master Wang's command."
Wang Zhong shook his head and walked away with his hands behind his back.
"The old man can help you once or twice, but not three or four times. You are already a general of the Yulin Guard. You will probably have to go to the next level in the future. You should learn some of the matter of placing troops and setting up formations by yourself."
Li Xin smiled bitterly.
Of course he was learning these things, but he didn't have any foundation. Although he learned a lot along the way last time, he didn't dare to use them on the Emperor's security, so he asked Wang Zhong again.
………………………………
Five or six days passed in a blink of an eye, and the time for Emperor Chengde to hunt for autumn was getting closer.
That afternoon, after the court dispersed, the four princes who stayed in Beijing were summoned into Changle Palace by Emperor Chengde.
Among these four princes, the eldest prince, King Qin Ji, has not left the palace for a long time, and rarely appears in front of all officials. The third prince, King Zhao Ji Chong, dances guns and sticks at home every day, and doesn't like to deal with those civil officials.
Although these two princes had errands from six ministries, they had never even been to the six ministries. In the eyes of outsiders, they seemed to have given up on the idea of competing for throne.
The fourth prince, Ji Huan, King of Qi and Ji Wen, the seventh prince, are keen on making friends with ministers and have made extensive friends in the court and the country. However, in recent times, His Highness of the King of Wei has also become a little silence and no longer makes friends with ministers.
The four princes who stayed in Beijing rarely appeared together, but this time, Emperor Chengde summoned them into the palace.
Among the four princes, Ji Ku, the oldest eldest prince, is already in his thirties, and the youngest seventh prince, Ji Wen, is already twenty-three or four years old. The four princes are sorted by their elders and young children and respectfully kneel down in front of Emperor Chengde.
"Son, come to my father."
Emperor Chengde sat on the dragon couch and waved lazily: "Get up, Chen Ju, get them a seat."
The four people stood up from the ground, and the eunuch Chen Ju immediately asked someone to bring in four chairs, and the four princes sat down carefully.
It was afternoon now, and Emperor Chengde was also a little tired. He yawned and said, "In a few days, I will go to Beishan Qiuhun. Then you guys will go with me. We father and son, come back to cum more wild game."
All four princes lowered their heads.
"Sons and others, obey the order."
The third prince Ji Chong bent down and bowed and smiled, "Father, I got a new ox horn bow a few days ago. I used the buffalo horns that I had for decades. It took me a year or two to get it out. I tried it. It was very good. Then I sent it to the palace to shoot and use it for my father to use it."
A ox horn bow is a long bow with extremely complicated production process. It usually requires more than 100 processes and the construction period is as long as one or two years. The power of the ox horn bow is not inferior to any compound bow in later generations, and it can be regarded as the best among the bows.
The most important thing is that this thing has a short shelf life and is usually used by only one generation, so it is quite rare.
There are naturally many such bows in the palace, but the Emperor Chengde loves shooting and hunting arches and horses, so he naturally likes to collect various bows and crossbows. Ji Chong is considered to be his favorite.
Emperor Chengde glared at the third prince and groaned: "You think about these swords, guns, bows and crossbows every day. The two ministers of the Ministry of Justice told me that after I handed over the Ministry of Justice to you, you have never been there once!"
His Highness Zhao smiled and didn't care.
Emperor Chengde glanced at the seventh prince and said, "There is also the seventh prince. I have been a little lazy recently. Is there less going to the Ministry of Works?"
The seventh prince smiled bitterly: "Father, Zhurongjiu has a great response from Zhenbei Army. Ye Shaobao is still urging the Ministry of War to ask for such Zhurongjiu from the court. The son minister has been busy making wine and delivering wine recently, so the Ministry of Works has asked less questions about the Ministry of Works."
Emperor Chengde nodded: "You have become much more sensible this year and know that you are busy with state affairs."
Having said that, Emperor Chengde did not continue to talk and turned a blind eye to the boss and the fourth brother.
"Okay, you all go down and prepare. During the autumn hunting, the children of the lieutenant generals were also involved. You can shoot more wild animals and don't lose face for me."
The four princes all bent over and held their fists: "Sons and others obey the order."
The four men left the side hall in a row. When they walked to the door of the side hall, the eunuch Chen Ju ran out in small steps, smiled at the third prince Ji, and whispered: "Your Highness, King Zhao, Your Majesty said, let you send the bow into the palace. Your Majesty will try it out if it is suitable."
King Zhao smiled heavily and nodded repeatedly.
