Chapter 35

Imperial City, Wuying Palace.

Emperor Chongming wears a bright yellow dragon robe and a hard-footed turban on his head. He holds a writing brush in his hand and corrects memorials in front of the imperial case.

Gao Xian, the eunuch in charge of Wuying Palace, bowed his waist and walked to the incense cage. From the jade pot handed to him by the young eunuch, he sorted out agarwood, ice chips and other items and poured them into the incense cage that was filled with sparks.

At this moment, Gao Xian noticed that the little eunuch beside him tugged on his sleeves, nodded, and walked quietly outside the hall.

"My father-in-law, Jia Yun of Ningguo Palace wants to see you." The eunuch said in a low voice.

Gao Xian nodded and turned back, just in time to see the emperor picking up a teacup and sipping the fragrant tea.

"Your Majesty, Jia Yun, a descendant of Ning Guogong, is waiting outside the palace." Gao Xian said carefully.

"Xuan." Chongming put down the tea cup and said in a deep voice.

Gao Xian took the order and left. After a while, Jia Yun, tall and straight in a green shirt, followed Gao Xian and walked in.

When he got close and stood up, Jia Yun shouted: "Student Jia Yun pays homage to His Majesty, and His Majesty bows in peace."

Emperor Chongming finished sipping the tea and continued to deal with the memorial. When Jia Yun came to pay his respects, Emperor Chongming still did not raise his eyes to look at him. He lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Get up."

Jia Yun straightened up. Jia Yun didn't know why Emperor Chongming summoned him. Seeing that Emperor Chongming was concentrating on handling the memorial and adhering to the principle of "a thousand words are worth less than a word of silence", Jia Yun stood aside honestly.

"How's your reading going?"

Suddenly, he heard Emperor Chongming asking him about his studies. Jia Yun suddenly fell into a trance. Emperor Chongming couldn't have summoned him just to ask about his studies. He believed that the emperor in front of him, who had many things to do, would not be so boring.

Jia Yun's head turned rapidly, and he hurriedly responded: "Students dare not lie to the Holy Master. If they study, they will live up to the Holy Spirit's expectations."

Emperor Chongming smiled when he heard this, raised his eyes to look at Jia Yun, and said in a deep voice: "You are honest."

Jia Yun doesn't want to be so honest. He just thinks about these small things and there is really no need to lie. What's more, Jia Yun believes that telling the truth in front of superiors may be easier to like. After all, Jia Yun tried like this before.

, Emperor Chongming also had no displeasure.

Emperor Chongming put down the memorial, looked at Jia Yun with interest, and said solemnly: "But you are brave enough to violate my will."

Listening to Emperor Chongming's relaxed tone, Jia Yun knew that he had no intention of blaming him, and hurriedly said: "Students will never dare to disobey the Holy Emperor's will, but this book is really tasteless. If it weren't for the Holy Emperor's order, the students would not be able to do it."

Remember those "Zhihu" ones."

Reading was boring. Jia Yun was originally disgusted with studying and learning. When he was young, he also wanted to rely on the imperial examination to change his destiny. But he couldn't even pass the child examination, so how could he take the imperial examination?

What's more, Jia Yun hasn't touched those "spicy articles" in four years, and has long ago lost most of the "Four Books and Five Classics". If he wants to regain them now, it will take a lot of effort.

But Jia Yun's thoughts were gone. How can he put in such painstaking efforts? He could only say nothing. If it weren't for Emperor Chongming's will, Jia Yun would probably never touch those books in this life...

"Oh...you kid, you are blaming me." Emperor Chongming snorted coldly.

Jia Yun replied: "Your Majesty shows mercy, and the students are grateful. However, students are not so blessed, and are afraid of living up to His Majesty's good intentions."

After a moment of silence, Emperor Chongming asked with great interest: "Remember what you said last time, when you made great achievements, you were doing it for the so-called glory and wealth. After seeing the prosperity of the capital, you must not want to go back to the border to guard the border. But after you are a meritorious official,

, I can’t treat you badly, so in your opinion, how should I arrange it?”

Jia Yun was not afraid of the stage. He lost his identity as a student and said bluntly: "Whatever your Majesty arranges, I will obey your orders. If you need me to guard the border, I will not hesitate. If you are rewarded by your Majesty, I will get a free time."

It’s bad, I don’t mind it either.”

Emperor Chongming couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and scolded: "I'm afraid that "idle work" is your goal! You really don't want to make progress."

Jia Yun followed the words and said: "With the Holy Emperor on top, the Tartars are not a problem. Now that the world is at peace, it is natural for me to find a "leisure job"."

"I'm afraid that may not be the case in a peaceful and prosperous age!" Emperor Chongming said pointedly.

Jia Yun bowed and said: "Your majesty is wise, a little scabies can be wiped out in a snap, so it is nothing to worry about."

Gao Xian on the side saw Jia Yun filming the "dragon fart" so skillfully, and his heart couldn't help but throb...

Emperor Chongming laughed when he heard this and said, "Well, since you can't be a scholar, it's not beautiful to force it."

Immediately, Emperor Chongming told Gao Xian: "Send the order and ask Jia Yun to raise some points for the Guards Division."

The main responsibility of the Imperial Guard Department is to guard the emperor and be responsible for part of the palace guard duties. It has one counselor and two deputy counselors, with a total of 995 people in the bodyguard army.

The imperial guards also include the forward battalion, the guard battalion, the three major battalions, the divine machine battalion, etc.

The guard camp is the main force that guards the imperial city. Its main task is to guard the various portals of the palace and control the opening and closing of the palace gates. It is also jointly responsible for the task of guarding the palace with the Arch Guards. The guard camp leads the camp and has a total of eight people.

Deputy Commander, uniting 15,045 people.

The forward battalion is the army responsible for the emperor's patrol, and is mainly responsible for the safety of the emperor when he is out. There is one counselor and two deputy counselors, uniting more than 1,800 people.

The three major battalions are divided into three battalions: Guards, Knights, and Forward, with a total of more than 20,000 people. They are in charge of the defense of the imperial city and the forbidden areas of the inner court, and are directly under the command of Emperor Chongming.

The main responsibility of the Shenji Battalion is also to guard the Forbidden City and to protect the emperor's retinue when they go out. There are more than 14,000 people in the army. The Shenji Battalion has an arms bureau, an arsenal, etc., and holds specially made weapons and ammunition.

In addition, there are also the Yiluansi, the guards of honor, with a total of more than 50,000 troops guarding the imperial city.

To put it bluntly, the Gongwei Si is the emperor's bodyguard. Jia Yun was shocked when Emperor Chongming asked him to mention the Gongwei Si. Jia Yun had only met Emperor Chongming a few times. It seemed that he was not yet trusted by Emperor Chongming.

.....

At this time, Jia Yun has not yet come to his senses. You must know that Jia Yun was originally only a sixth-grade Qianzong, while the chief minister of the Gongwei Department was a fourth-grade officer. In addition to his promotion, he was still a close minister of the emperor, which is of great significance...

.......

"I thank your Majesty for your kindness." Jia Yun came to his senses and worshiped to accept it.

Emperor Chongming looked as usual and ordered: "Gao Xian, take this boy to the Gongwei Division."

Gao Xian accepted the order and then walked out with Jia Yun.

After Jia Yun left, Emperor Chongming's expression became cold and stern, and he thought to himself: "I want to see if those "snake, insect, rat, ant" can still be restrained?..."
