Chapter 2 Joining the Imperial Guard

Fuzhou, Jinyi Health Center

"Stop, who is coming?"

Nie Bao, the Jinyi guard guarding the door, pulled out his Xiuchundao and stopped Xia Yan.

"I am Xia Yan, the son of Xia Dahu, who has come to inherit my father's position as a royal guard."

Xia Yan bowed his hands and took out the appointment letter given by Jin Yiwei.

Nie Bao's expression softened, he looked Xia Yan up and down, and put away his embroidered spring knife.

"Xia Dahu's son? He does look a bit similar."

"My name is Nie Bao, and I'm friends with your father. When the commander-in-chief asks you who you want to go with, just tell me your name, and I can take care of you."

"It turns out to be Uncle Nie. I often hear my father mention you."

"When I join the Jinyi Guards in the future, I have to ask Uncle Nie to take care of me."

Once he is in a high position, he will definitely punish Jin Yiwei to death!

Chen Jiu looked at the silent Xia Yan and persuaded him: "Sir, it would be better for you to stay with Nie Xiaoqi."

"But there is an ancestral jade pendant at home. Although it is not valuable, it is quite commemorative. Please accept it."

Xia Yan remembered what Xia Dahu had explained and immediately understood what Zhou Baichuan said.

When Xia Yan came here for the first time, he could only tell what happened at the Jinyi Guardhouse through the words of his former cheap dad Xia Dahu.

Xia Yan took out the Jin Yiwei appointment letter and handed it to Zhou Baichuan.

Xia Yan asked casually and was not disappointed. After thinking carefully, he asked the thing he wanted to know the most.

How greedy!

Make money! You must make money!

well!

Xia Yan sighed in his heart!

Of course, what Chen Jiu understood, he also understood.

Xia Yan nodded slightly, but he had some concerns in his heart.

No wonder you have always been a general flag!

Xia Yan smiled slightly, as long as you have the intention.

When Chen Jiu heard this, his expression changed. After struggling for a long time, he whispered: "What I said is true."

His son didn't know the goods, but he gave me an advantage.

Sent away? Sent to where?

Xia Yan quickly thought of the whereabouts of these people and couldn't help but feel sad for them.

"I don't know their strength, but in the last mission, Baihu took away all the most skilled members of the Jinyiwei."

But I definitely want the skin of Jin Yiwei, otherwise I can only become a eunuch in the palace!

Now I only have the dragon-shaped jade pendant inherited from the Xia family. In order to prevent the Xia family from losing its descendants, I can only store this thing with Zhou Baichuan.

"Nie Xiaoqi is standing guard at the door just to recruit people for Mr. Zhou Qi. He has sent away all those thorns."

"Sir, Chen Jiu is a hereditary servant of Jinyi Guards for three generations. If you need me, you can come to me."

When Chen Jiu saw Xia Yan walking out of Zhou Baichuan's house holding the Jinyiwei badge, his expression became more respectful, and he led Xia Yan towards the warehouse, talking as he walked.

"Not everyone can be a royal guard, even if you are hereditary."

"Have you never thought about getting rid of your slavery?" Xia Yan asked.

"I will register you. From today on, you will be a member of the Jin Yiwei."

"Fuwei Escort Agency? Jinyi Guards Office has been busy lately, and many things have not been paid attention to."

This guy is not stupid.

"Then you can help me find out. If Fuwei Escort Agency makes any moves, let me know immediately."

"Your name is Chen Jiu. How many years have you been at Jinyi Guardhouse?"

Zhou Baichuan waved for Chen Jiu to leave, took down Xia Yan's appointment letter, and said calmly.

But after seeing Zhou Baichuan's greed today, I realized that there are some things that I still need to be familiar with.

Their father lived and died for the Ming Dynasty, but they were sent to be eunuchs and could not even leave any descendants.

Everyone is cynical, everyone is complicit!

This is the human heart!

But in the final analysis, he still lacks strength. If he had enough strength, he wouldn't be at the mercy of others.

"There is a conflict between Lu Xiaoqi and Zhou Zongqi."

Xia Dahu actually has this kind of top-quality jade pendant in his home. He must have intercepted it when he followed hundreds of households to raid their homes and exterminate their clans.

Those people were originally Jin Yiwei, but they were forced to join the East Factory and the West Factory.

"I don't understand what you mean."

"How is the relationship between the chief flag and the two junior flags?"

Zhou Baichuan took over the dragon-shaped jade pendant, feeling warm and moist, and felt very happy.

After Xia Yan thought about it for a while, he smiled and said.

"Sir, there are only three old people left in the Jinyi Guardhouse: General Banner Zhou Baichuan, Xiaoqi Nie Bao, and Xiaoqi Lu Ran."

Nie Bao's eyes flashed, and he summoned a servant, Chen Jiu, and smiled slightly, "Come in."

Chen Jiu didn't understand why Xia Yan wanted to inquire about Fuwei Escort Agency.

How did Nie Bao do this? He let such a person in.

"Hahaha, my nephew is joking. Xia Dahu is an elite member of the Jinyi Guards. This is your Jinyiwei waist badge."

"As for the newcomers, including me, there are only six people."

Chen Jiu shook his head again, "This is Jin Yiwei's secret. I'm just a servant and have no right to know."

During the Ming Dynasty, this oath was extremely serious, and Chen Jiu believed it.

Xia Yan smiled, but he didn't recognize this person in his memory, so he called him uncle.

"Sir, we are no better than you. Jinyi Guardhouse will not let you go."

Chen Jiu shook his head.

He is coveting Xia Dahu’s pension!

But this money has long been used to exchange for a gift package of basic skills. Now I can't take it out even if I want to, so I can only choose to pretend to be stupid.

Xia Yan understood Chen Jiu's concerns and said with a smile: "You helped me, I will remember it!"

"You're new here, so you know the rules."

Zhou Baichuan snorted coldly, feeling quite unhappy.

As a small flag, Nie Bao can manage ten people under his command, but now he even does the guarding himself.

"Chen Jiu, there are still a few old people and a few newcomers in Jinyi Guardhouse now."

Even the pension of the brothers who lived together and died together was not spared.

As long as we have the strength, we will overthrow this chaotic system!

"In addition to taking care of my father's funeral arrangements, I am already completely empty."

A glint flashed in Xia Yan's eyes,

This means that the strength of these three people is the weakest in Fuzhou Jinyiwei.

"If there is a chance in the future, I can help you escape from slavery."

"Sir, my father owed debts during his lifetime. In order to let my father go away clean, I have paid off the debts one by one."

"Let Chen Jiu take you to the warehouse to collect the Xiuchun Dao and Feiyu Suit."

"How are Zhou Baichuan and Nie Bao's martial arts skills?"

"Fuwei Escort Agency in Fuzhou, have you made any big moves recently?"

"What mission did Baihu go to last time?"

"If you need me, I can go and inquire."

"If you make false claims, you will be quartered by five horses one day." Xia Yan said solemnly.

The previous Baihu had probably buried all the people in Fuzhou Jinyi Guardhouse.
