In the Guards Department.

Jia Yun sat high in the hall.

Two deputy counselors, Zeng Guofan, Li Bangguo and eight deputy lieutenants were present in the hall.

"Zhang Sheng." Jia Yun shouted.

Zhang Sheng, who was wearing armor in the hall, came out and said: "The general is here."

Jia Yun ordered: "Go down and pick five good players and wait at the west gate at three o'clock in the morning."

"Your Majesty," Zhang Sheng replied. After saying that, he went down to make arrangements, looking excited.

Emperor Chongming asked Jia Yun to select elite guards, and the Gongwei Division was all elite. As for Zhang Sheng to accompany him, it was because Zhang Sheng was originally from Henan, and he would do his best when his hometown was in trouble.

Then Jia Yun looked back and forth between Zeng Guofan and Li Bangguo. Jia Yun was going to the south of the Yangtze River. Transportation was not good and he had to run errands. It would take at least several months. In this case, the Arch Guard Department must arrange for a temporary chief officer.

There are only two deputy staff leaders who are qualified.

Li Bangguo's expression was as usual. According to his seniority, he had served as the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Arch Guard Department for many years, while Zeng Guofan had only been serving for half a year. In comparison, he should have been the temporary chief officer.

It's just that Zeng Guofan was promoted by Jia Yun, and he only followed Jia Yun's orders.

In terms of emotion and reason, Jia Yun should have arranged for Zeng Guofan to serve as the temporary chief official. Li Bangguo knew that there was no hope, so he naturally would not think too much about it.

Recalling that when Feng Bangning was dismissed, he originally thought that Jia Yun would also deal with him. Now that he can stay in his original position, it is great. Moreover, Jia Yun did not treat him differently, and he had no idea in his mind.

Jia Yun thought for a moment and said: "Li Guobang, after I leave the capital, you will be in charge of the Imperial Guards for the time being."

As soon as he finished speaking, the deputy lieutenants had different expressions. The deputy lieutenant of Li Guobang's department looked happy, while the deputy lieutenant of Zeng Guofan's department looked embarrassed.

The Archguard Division guards the three palaces and six courtyards of the imperial city, each of which is different.

The imperial city is bounded by the Qianqing Gate, with the outer dynasty in the south and the inner court in the north.

The three palaces are Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace on the middle road, also known as the "Three Back Palaces".

The six courtyards respectively refer to the six palaces on the east road: Zhai Palace, Jingren Palace, Chengqian Palace, Zhongcui Palace, Jingyang Palace and Yonghe Palace; the six palaces on the west road: Chuxiu Palace, Yikun Palace, Yongshou Palace, Changchun Palace,

Xianfu Palace and Chonghua Palace. Because each palace is a courtyard-style building, it is called the "Six Courtyards".

The Qianqing Palace is where Emperor Daqian lived and handled daily political affairs. It is the first of the three palaces in the Forbidden City and is located inside the Qianqing Gate. The Wuying Palace is also in the Qianqing Palace.

Such important places are naturally the most popular. You can admire the saint's face at any time and show your face in front of the emperor. The rewards are not low, and you are deeply loved by the guards of the Arch Guard Department.

Jiaotai Palace is one of the three palaces in the back, located between Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace. It is the place where the Queen receives gifts on her birthday.

Kunning Palace is one of the three palaces in the back. Behind Jiaotai Palace, it is the queen's bedroom.

These places are extremely important and naturally very popular.

As for the "Six Courtyards", it refers to the place where other concubines and concubines live, which is divided into the East Sixth Palace and the West Sixth Palace.

The emperor had so many concubines that it was obviously impossible to give one palace to one person. In the concubine system of the Daqian Dynasty, there were imperial concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, beauties, talented people, ladies, etc.

.

Only people with concubines and above can live alone in a palace. As for the others, they can only live with the people with these concubines.

If there are more of these people, there will be more troubles. They are all the emperor's women, who dares to neglect them?

Especially when encountering "arrogant" concubines, or looking at angry concubines, there are not a few who take it out on these guards...

Although the Arch Guard Division is divided into separate guards, and both teams have the opportunity to guard the "Three Palaces", the difference is that being in charge of the Arch Guard Division will know the itinerary of each "noble person" in advance to a certain extent, which is extremely beneficial to the brothers below.

of.

In the past, whenever the chief ministers of the Archguard Bureau encountered a noble person visiting the park, they would arrange for their confidants to accompany them.

However, since Jia Yun took charge of the Gongwei Division, public and private affairs have always been kept separate. Even though everyone knew that Zeng Guofan and others were promoted by Jia Yun, Jia Yun did not receive special treatment. Each of the two groups had their own opportunities. Which group of people had their turn to be on duty?

That's who's business, there is no partiality.

Although people in Zeng Guofan's department were closer to Jia Yun, their foundation was weak. Li Guobang had been in the position of deputy counselor for several years, so it was more appropriate for him to be in charge.

"My subordinates obey..." Li Guobang responded, with a hint of joy on his face.

Jia Yun nodded, and then shouted: "I have been ordered by Your Majesty to escort Prince Zhongshun to the south of the Yangtze River. You are performing your duties in Beijing, and if something goes wrong, I will not spare you."

"Yes..." everyone shouted in unison.

After arranging the affairs of the Archguard Bureau, Jia Yun stood up and left, returning home to prepare for his trip.

Jia Yun's mansion is not far from the imperial city, just two streets apart.

After a while, Jia Yun returned to the house, stepped into the courtyard gate, and happened to see Xiang Ling. She was wearing a short crimson armor, a gauze skirt of the same color, a crimson damask embroidered Han scarf, and a little girl on her head.

The common double bun.

At this time, she was holding a basin of water and seemed to be doing cleaning work. Seeing Jia Yun, she was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Why are you back?"

It was late at this time, and it was still early before Jia Yun got off work.

Jia Yun did not answer, but asked: "Where is Qingwen?"

Xiangling lowered her head and replied softly: "She's in the house. I'll call her right now."

After saying this, Xiangling hurriedly walked towards the east wing of the room.

After a while, there was a faint sound of rustling and whispering in the east wing room.

Jia Yun shook his head when he saw this, this Qingwen...

In the blink of an eye, Xiangling and Qingwen walked out of the penthouse together. Xiangling didn't talk about it for the time being, but Qingwen hurriedly walked out wearing a fish-white floral straight thin shirt, her hands busy tying a green sweat scarf.

, sleepy...

"Master, why are you back so early today?" Qingwen asked carefully.

Jia Yun said angrily: "You have to be able to hold up a corpse in broad daylight!"

Qingwen smiled bitterly and did not dare to say anything. After all, it was her fault and she had nothing to say...

As for Xiangling, she lowered her head and said nothing, twisting her sweat towel in her hands, as if she was panicking to protect Qingwen.

Although Jia Yun was lenient towards these two girls, he still had to be punished if he did something wrong.

Although Jia Yun knew that Qingwen was late at sewing and would be lazy when she was tired, but if she just took a nap for a long time, it was enough. She was so brave to stand up in the ear room so blatantly. This kind of habit

If you get used to it, you will suffer a lot sooner or later.

"You will be punished for one month. Next time, I will watch your skin carefully."

Qingwen immediately became angry when she heard this, so she just punished her. After all, she had broken the rules, but punishing her every month was really too harsh.

Finally, he said something in disgust and muttered in his heart: "Those shoes that have been dug out of their hearts, just throw them away..."

Qingwen's friend, Jia Yun, didn't know it, so he said, "You two go help me prepare my luggage. I'm leaving Beijing for a while."

"Li Jing?" The two of them were stunned for a moment.

Qingwen asked anxiously: "Why do you want to leave Beijing?"

Jia Yun stepped forward and gave Qingwen a slap in the face, saying, "Go if you are told, you are so talkative."

Immediately, Jia Yun added: "I was sent by the emperor to go to the south of the Yangtze River."

Qingwen muttered something, and then "forced" Xiangling, who was quiet beside her, to walk towards the house.

Jia Yun ignored the angry Qingwen and the ignorant and pretty Xiangling, and went to the stable to fetch the horse alone.

As the chief of the archguard department, he can naturally get a royal horse. Jia Yun's horse is named "Yueying". It is produced in Ili. It has a strong physique and handsome appearance. It was originally a BMW selected from thousands of people in Ili. It has traveled thousands of miles.

The good horse was a gift from Emperor Chongming and has been raised by dedicated personnel.

Jia Yun ordered people to arrange the saddle and other equipment, hang up a sword and two stone bows, and then took the luggage handed over by Qingwen, ready to go at any time.

After getting on the good horse, Jia Yun said to the reluctant Qingwen: "It's been a few months, please be at peace and don't bully Xiangling."

"How can I..." Qingwen whispered, and Xiangling also said in favor: "Qingwen didn't bully the slave!"

Jia Yun chuckled lightly. The two sisters got along well. Qingwen jumped around and Xiangling was quiet. When they got along, Qingwen always "bullied" Xiangling. Although it was "bullying", Qingwen had good intentions.

Also thinking about Xiang Ling, the relationship between the two became increasingly close.

After hesitating for a moment, Qingwen said: "Master, how about all the slaves follow you? How can we do this without someone caring around us?"

When Xiang Ling heard this, she looked up at Jia Yun with hopeful eyes. There was no master in the house, and these maids were always unhappy.

Jia Yun was happy when he heard this, stretched out his riding crop and tapped Qingwen's forehead, and said with a smile: "I'm going to do business, so it doesn't matter if I bring a beautiful maid with me. It's great for you to stay in the house with peace of mind for me, Xiangling

Don't worry, I'm very quiet, but you girl, please stop being lazy."

Qingwen tilted her head and said nothing, obviously not happy, but she was secretly happy that Jia Yun said she was a "beautiful maid".

Jia Yun smiled and said nothing, then stretched out his horsewhip, raised Xiang Ling's chin with lowered eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Okay, I will come back after finishing my work. It's a good thing for you to be an errand in the house."

Xiangling's eyes were wandering and her cheeks were getting rosier. She had been serving Jia Yun for nearly half a year, but she had never seen Jia Yun behave in such a frivolous way. Although she was shy, why did she feel so happy...

Jia Yun looked at Xiang Ling's pretty face. It was bright, charming, sweet and cute, really lovely, but it was a pity that it was a bit delicate...

With the corners of his mouth raised slightly, Jia Yun withdrew his riding whip, then clapped his horse and left...

Qingwen and Xiangling were reluctant to leave, and Fu Shen said: "Have a safe trip, sir..."

As for other servants, ignore them.

After Jia Yun walked away, Qingwen turned her head to look at Xiang Ling, who had not yet regained consciousness. She stretched out her hand to pinch Xiang Ling's chin and said, "You have such a lovely appearance. No wonder our master is worried."

Xiangling's face turned rosy immediately, she waved away Qingwen's teasing hand, and said angrily: "Your little hooves are crazy."

There was someone else around, so this was not meant to make fun of her.

Others also knew that their master was very special to these two people, and he might become the master one day, so they naturally did not dare to neglect them. The butler Li Fu on the side smiled kindly at Qingwen and Xiangling, and then led everyone

Went to work.

After everyone dispersed, Qingwen snorted coldly and laughed at herself: "I'm not as good as you. Our master, you have to say a few words about me before leaving. It's really not welcome."

Hearing this, Xiangling lowered her head and replied in a low voice: "No way, our master is even more kind to you."

In the house, Qingwen is the only one who can confront Jia Yun without being punished. Others dare not. Sometimes even Xiangling is envious of her! . . .
