The change in the auction hall caused the prince to be angry, and Shangjing ushered in a violent storm, and more than a dozen big families in Shangjing were imprisoned for being implicated in this matter. In addition to punishing these big families, the most important thing is the rectification of the city defense battalion.

As an important force guarding Kyoto, he was able to condone such a thing in the hinterland of Kyoto. Moreover, even after the incident, he couldn't even catch people, which shows how rotten the city defense camp has become, and if he is allowed to indulge it again and does not rectify it, I am afraid that the entire Shangjing will be even more unpeaceful in the future.

Led by the four major families in Shangjing, many military generals asked for orders, and the crown prince Kuanghua dismissed the commander of the city defense battalion for dereliction of duty and handed it over to the Tingwei Mansion for investigation.

These days, the prince is very busy with this. And Han Ming at this moment is also very busy.

Since Wencheng gave him a mansion that day, he has a piece of his own territory in this world, and since he fought here, he has been very attentive to this house.

Wen Cheng brought a large number of people to the house early in the morning, most of these people were servants and maids who could do things. In addition to this group of people, Wen Cheng also brought some furniture ornaments, all kinds of everything, ready to help Han Ming decorate the house.

When Han Ming was worried, he didn't expect Wen Chengcheng to send such a big gift. Seriously, at that time, Han Ming's heart said that it was false not to be moved, and he and he could only be regarded as gentlemen's friends, but he didn't expect him to give himself such a heavy gift, which made Han Ming embarrassed to accept it.

However, he didn't refuse, after all, people had good intentions, and it was not good to refuse, and besides, Han Ming himself had no money, and it was obviously unrealistic to want to buy a set of furniture.

But Han Ming accepted the furniture and utensils sent by Wen Cheng, but asked Wen Cheng to bring back the maids and servants, which he didn't need (in fact, the main reason was that he didn't have the money to pay their commissions).

Wen Cheng didn't force it, so he agreed to him, but when he was leaving, he let Han Ming have time to go to his house to sit.

So, Han Ming began to plan and build his own house.

Ye Die was also beside him, watching him inside and out, commanding up and down. Han Ming originally wanted her to help him plan and see how to build this mansion appropriately.

Unexpectedly, when he commanded, he didn't stop at all, and he didn't need Ye Die to give him any advice next to him.

On the contrary, it was Ye Die, seeing that he had been chattering, saying that it was crooked, and then saying that it was not good, so he silently carried a pot of tea beside him, and when he was tired and thirsty, he poured him a cup.

Han Ming saw that someone was handing over the cup, and he didn't care who handed it, he drank it directly, then handed the cup back, and began to continue to instruct everyone to put the furniture, which place needed to be repaired, which place to replace, and which place to dismantle. For three whole days, they were busy with the construction of this house.

He raised a few fish in the pond in the inner courtyard, removed a few redundant trees, cleaned up the weeds in the yard, and added some martial arts training equipment to the open space next to it, so that it would be convenient for him to practice martial arts in the future.

The furnishings of the reception hall are much more complicated, there are two rows of guest chairs and tables at the entrance, there are two Taishi chairs in the middle, a landscape map is hung on the wall, and there are two rows of ornaments behind the two rows of chairs, and some ornaments are placed on the shelves, although they are not rich and shabby.

There were originally two ear chambers on both sides of the hall, and Han Ming converted one of them into a bedroom, ready to use it for napping, or to lie down when he was tired. The other room was converted into a study room, which was later used to write letters, meet friends, etc., although he did not like to write and read, but he still had to pretend to be like.

The corridors on both sides of the inner courtyard were originally covered with curtains, probably to appear mysterious.

Han Ming directly removed the curtains, revealing the corridor and the rooms on both sides, and as soon as these curtains were removed, he suddenly felt that the entire space was open. In fact, Han Ming removed these curtains not only to make the space bigger, but more importantly, to make himself feel a little safe.

After all this was done, it was already evening, and he finally transformed this house into the way he wanted, looking at the very clean, simple, and rejuvenated house, Han Ming suddenly felt very comfortable in his heart, and this was a feeling of home.

Early the next morning

After decorating the house, Han Ming decided to go to the prince's mansion first, and it was still necessary to have a good relationship with the prince. As the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree, and by the way, ask how to deal with the auction house that day and whether you can help yourself.

When he came to the Prince's Mansion, Han Ming wanted to go to Cheng Rui to ask questions about his fighting spirit, waiting for the prince to come back after handling official business.

Unexpectedly, he happened to meet the housekeeper on the road, and the housekeeper asked Han Ming to find Kuang Hua, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had something to look for. This surprised Han Ming, under normal circumstances, Kuang Hua was not in the mansion in the morning, and today was the first time in the world. Since there was something to do, he had to go to Kuang Hua first, and then walked towards the prince's study under the leadership of the housekeeper.

Kuang Hua heard someone knocking on the door, so he called someone in, and when he saw that it was Han Ming who came in, he put down the pen in his hand and began to talk to him.

"Brother Han, the rebellion in Jubaozhai the day before yesterday didn't frighten you, right?"

Han Ming straightened up and replied, "Your Highness, this little matter is not a big deal, but I don't know how the princess is now?"

As a modern person, Han Ming doesn't have much concept of dignity and inferiority, except for calling His Royal Highness, so that Kuang Hua doesn't feel anything special about himself as a prince at all, but this is also where Kuang Hua admires Han Ming.

Kuang Hua looked at Han Ming, shook his head and smiled: "She, heh, you don't know, this girl is depressed now." Originally, the last time I went to the Banlun Mountain Range, I secretly ran there, but when I came back, I was reprimanded by my father and the high priest, and she was strictly forbidden to go out of the palace again. Unexpectedly, last time she secretly ran out again and appeared in the auction hall, which scared her father and the high priest so much that they directly locked her in the room and let her think about it behind closed doors. Now if she wants to come up with it again, I'm afraid she won't have a chance. ”

Hearing this, Han Ming smiled slightly, thinking to himself, now this princess has no chance to bother herself, she did a good job.

Kuang Hua didn't notice the subtle expression on Han Ming's face, and sighed to himself: "Alas, my father's body has been getting worse and worse recently, and my younger sister is still so ignorant, and it doesn't make people worry at all." The thought of these things gives me a headache. Brother Han, how do you think this is good?"

When Han Ming heard this, he didn't dare to take it randomly, your sister is a princess, you can't take care of it, why are you still expecting me to take care of it for you? I still want to live a few more years. I had to divert this topic and ask about the follow-up of the Jubao Zhai matter.

"The princess is still young, it would be nice to grow up a little more. I don't know about Jubaozhai, did the gang of thieves catch it?"

Kuang Hua heard Han Ming change the topic, and said in his heart: What I am waiting for is your stubble.

"Speaking of this matter in the city defense camp, it makes me even more sad, the matter of catching the thieves is handed over to the city defense camp to deal with, but the people of the city defense camp are disciplined and evacuated, slow to act, and the work efficiency is too low, four or five days have passed, and no figure has been found. There is not even a single eyebrow on who robbed Jubao Zhai. Now that I have removed the commander of the city defense battalion from his post and investigated it, the next thing I want to do is to find a new commander to reform the city defense battalion and cure this tumor in Beijing. ”

"Well, I think this city defense camp should also be governed, I have seen with my own eyes that this group of people harbor and condone murderers, have no discipline, and do evil on the street, I am afraid that it will not be cured, I am afraid that something will happen, and now it is just taking advantage of the matter of Jubao Zhai to govern this city defense camp well. When Han Ming heard the prince's words, he remembered what the city defense camp had done a few days ago, and he really felt the same way.

When Kuang Hua heard Han Ming's words, he smiled slightly, his face was a little helpless.

"I don't know what the city defense battalion is like, as an important force to guard the defense of the capital, the city defense battalion together with the forbidden army and the Gyeonggi camp form the 'city wall' of Shangjing. At the beginning of its establishment, the city defense battalion was a well-disciplined army. However, in the process of continuous development of the capital, it has become a hotbed for the promotion of the children of the rich families in the capital. I have always had the idea of rectifying the city defense battalion, but I couldn't find a suitable person to be the commander of the city defense battalion, so I didn't do it for a long time. ”

"Your Highness laughed, how could the commander of a city defense battalion not find anyone, there are not many capable people up and down in the court, and it shouldn't be a problem to find one or two loyal people. ”

Kuang Hua smiled bitterly and said: "How can it be so simple, a person who is an official in the DPRK and the central government, whose family has nothing to do with other families? The city defense battalion is the default promotion ground of various families in Shangjing, and if it wants to vigorously rectify it, it will definitely offend some people. If it weren't for the fact that the matter was too big this time, who would be willing to tear off their faces and make enemies of the entire major families in Shangjing? If someone does this, even if they have me to protect them, it will be difficult for them to be promoted in the future, and how can these people put a heavy hand in rectifying for the sake of their own careers, so it is difficult to change this city defense battalion well. After speaking, Kuang Hua shook his head again.

"Isn't there still the Feng clan in the capital? I heard that their family has been a general for generations, and with the prestige and ability of the Feng clan, it should be no problem to manage a city defense battalion. Han Ming suddenly thought of the Feng family in the capital, as a military family, it should be right to pack a small city defense battalion, plus the Feng family is only loyal to the royal family, it stands to reason that the Feng family should be the best candidate.

Kuang Hua was a little surprised when he heard that Han Ming knew about the Feng family, he didn't expect that he would be able to inquire about so many things in just a few days, but there were some things that he didn't understand.

"The son of the Feng family is of course the best as the commander of the city defense battalion, but the current commander of the forbidden army is Feng Sheng, the head of the Feng family. Feng already has a commander of the forbidden army, and it is inappropriate to be the commander of the city defense battalion again. ”

Hearing this, Han Ming understood, no wonder Kuang Hua was worried, if it was him, he would also be worried. This is a hot potato, no one dares to take it, which is very embarrassing.

At this moment, Kuang Hua was staring at Han Ming with glowing eyes. Han Ming was stared at by Kuang Hua like this, and secretly screamed in his heart, this can't be because he has taken a fancy to me.

Kuang Hua stared at it and began to laugh, laughing so hard that Han Ming's heart was furious.

"I suddenly have a good candidate now, but I don't know if this person is willing to do it. Kuang Hua looked at Han Ming and smiled.

Yes, I see, I am. Han Ming thought in his heart.

I wanted to instinctively refuse Kuang Hua's invitation, but suddenly thought of something. This is the third time I was invited by Kuang Hua, the first time was in Linlun Town, the second time in front of the Beijing Tablet Tower, I was rejected twice, I really didn't have an idea at that time, and I also felt that even if it was an official or a post, it would not be too big an official position.

But now it is different from the past, the current Kuang Hua is the prince, he also invited himself as the prince, and the official position is not low, he is directly the commander of the city defense battalion, which is equivalent to the director of the public security bureau in the capital.

And at this moment, Han Ming also has something he wants to do.

Thinking of this, he said to Kuang Hua: "I understand what His Highness means, I originally had no intention of pursuing a career, but His Highness has sincerely invited me to the next two times, if I still refuse this time, I don't understand His Highness's good intentions." Since Your Highness believes in me so much, then I will do it. After Han Ming finished speaking, he knelt down on one knee in front of Kuang Hua. "Han Ming is willing to serve His Royal Highness. ”

Kuang Hua hurriedly stepped forward to help Han Ming up, and patted the ash on Han Ming's trouser leg, "Brother Han, oh no, from now on, I will call you Commander Han." Commander Han, please entrust you with the matter of the city defense camp, looking at the entire capital, only Brother Han can afford my trust, I think, with Brother Han's ability, he will definitely be able to govern the city defense camp, you can do it boldly and boldly, no matter what happens, I will block it for you. ”

Han Ming arched his hands and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, since I have promised Your Highness, if I am not sure of things, I will not do it, and I will return Your Highness to a city defense battalion with strict military discipline and prohibitions." ”

"Well, with your words, I'm relieved. In this way, tomorrow I will let Commander Cheng be with you, on the one hand to protect you well, and on the other hand to deter Xiao Xiao for you, what do you think of this?" Kuang Hua was very happy when he saw Han Ming's determination, but he was worried that Han Ming would not be able to cope with it alone, so he wanted Commander Cheng to assist him.

"Your Highness, this is completely unnecessary. If Your Highness believes me, just let me do it, and I will be responsible for all the consequences. Han Ming knew that Kuang Hua was worried about his safety, but this time he didn't go alone, so he didn't have to worry about this safety, but this Cheng Commander, if he followed him, then he wouldn't be able to do many things, so he had to say ruthless words to reassure Kuang Hua.

Kuang Hua also felt that he had done something inappropriate, thinking that he had not thought it through just now, and apologized to Han Ming.

Han Ming hurriedly waved his hand, this apology from His Royal Highness the Prince, it is better not to accept it.
