Maybe the emperor originally had the intention of staying with Xiao Yanzhi to share lunch, so the five guards of the Guards Mansion selected for Xiao Yanzhi all came to the open space in front of the Liangyi Palace, lined up.

Lian Sheng, who had been waiting outside the Liangyi Palace, saw Xiao Yanzhi come out, so he quickly approached Xiao Yanzhi's side.

"Your Highness, you have worked hard, the early dynasty is over?"

Xiao Yanzhi followed Zhao Kang to the left side of the Liangyi Palace, and then walked down a section of steps on the left, shook his head and replied to Lian Sheng: "My father and the adults are still discussing inside, and they want me to come out and choose a personal guard." ”

When Lian Sheng heard this, he hurriedly looked at the five people who were standing straight in the middle of the clearing, and said with a smile: "The slave maid also said that there were people from the Guardian Mansion who came over, and it turned out that they wanted to choose someone for His Highness." ”

Xiao Yanzhi suddenly slowed down and asked Lian Sheng: "Do you know all five people?" ”

When Lian Sheng heard this, he glanced at Zhao Kang first, and then replied: "The slave and maid recognize it, but I don't know if I remember it clearly, these things are still the best in Lord Zhao, and the things that the slave and maid know are also taught by Lord Zhao." ”

Xiao Yanzhi's eyebrows moved, pretending not to understand Lian Sheng's praise of Zhao Kang: "Yes." ”

Zhao Kang glanced at Lian Sheng and said, "Your Highness asked you, you just said, if you can't say it accurately, our family will correct it, can you still talk nonsense?" ”

With his current status, can he still compete with the people below for this good opportunity?

"That's what Lord Zhao said." Lian Sheng smiled innocently, and introduced the five guards to Xiao Yanzhi in turn.

Xiao Yanzhi listened carefully, but the more he listened, the more headache he felt.

Aren't these five all guards? Why are they all from official families?

After all the streaks were introduced, Xiao Yanzhi couldn't remember much.

Zhao Kang has been paying attention to Xiao Yanzhi's reaction, and seeing that Xiao Yanzhi didn't understand much after hearing it, he speculated on Xiao Yanzhi's temperament and added: "That He Yan is the son of Taichang Siqing, his mother was born in a poor family, and the first two elder brothers are both serving in the local area, and the official rank is not high. Among the five people, the family background is the cleanest. ”

I heard that this person is quite highly regarded by King Wucheng, but seeing that His Royal Highness has a good relationship with King Wucheng, there is no need to say this, right?

Xiao Yanzhi's footsteps paused, and he looked at Zhao Kang with a smile and said, "Since that's the case, then this person." ”

As he spoke, Xiao Yanzhi turned around and turned back up.

"Huh?" Lian Sheng was taken aback, glanced at Zhao Kang in confusion, and hurriedly caught up with Xiao Yanzhi, "Your Highness, what about He Yan to you...... It didn't help. ”

Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Lian Sheng with a smile and said, "What help do I need?" The people who follow you have a good look, and it is pleasing to the eye. ”

"Appreciation, pleasing to the eye?"

Lian Sheng still couldn't figure it out, but seeing that Xiao Yanzhi had already stepped into the Liangyi Palace, Lian Sheng could only stop at the door of the Liangyi Palace, and turned his head to see Zhao Kang leading He Yan to the Liangyi Palace.

"Zhao, Lord Zhao." He Yan is the personal guard chosen for the eldest prince, and he should lead the way.

Zhao Kang glanced at Lian Sheng coldly, and said, "Your Highness is easy-going, but you still get up casually?" Do you want our family to ask someone to teach you the rules? ”

Lian Sheng hurriedly knelt down: "My lord, forgive my sins." ”

Zhao Kang said coldly: "Now that His Majesty is the time to value the prince of Dà, you can do it at your own discretion, but don't turn a happy event into a funeral." ”

"Thank you, sir." Just for a moment, the winning streak was covered in a cold sweat.

With a cold snort, Zhao Kang turned his head to look at He Yan, a smile instantly bloomed on his face, and he said kindly: "He Qinwei is here for a while." ”

He Yan only arched his hand to Zhao Kang and didn't say anything.

Zhao Kang nodded, and stepped into the Liangyi Palace.

In the Liangyi Palace, Xiao Yanzhi, who walked in first, attracted the attention of everyone, and before the emperor had finished drinking a cup of tea after the meal, Xiao Yanzhi's guards were selected, which was faster than everyone expected.

"What? Don't have a favorite? The emperor blew away the tea leaves floating on the tea water and looked at Xiao Yanzhi with a kind smile.

Xiao Yanzhi returned to his seat and sat down, and said, "I've chosen." ”

"Selected? So fast? The emperor's expression was a little more surprised, and then he asked Zhao Kang, who was chasing in, "Which one did you choose?" ”

Zhao Kang replied with a smile: "Hui Majesty, it is the third son of Taichang Siqing, He Yan." ”

"Taichang Siqing?" The emperor frowned, and wanted to say something to Xiao Yanzhi, but he couldn't speak because of the presence of others, "Call in." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Kang immediately sent the little eunuch in the palace to see He Yan and call him in.

He Yan strode into the hall with his head held high, walked in front of the emperor without squinting, and knelt down and saluted: "See Your Majesty." ”

"No courtesy," the emperor looked He Yan up and down, "I don't remember choosing you to come." ”

The choices he gave to Yan were all from a strong family background, which could be a help to Yan Zhi and a support for Yan Zhi, but how could he choose one who was the least useful in his family?

He Yan half-hung his head and looked at the ground, and replied calmly: "Your Majesty, the guard who was originally going to come accidentally flashed his waist yesterday, and the minister came in place of that person. ”

The emperor frowned, and asked Xiao Yanzhi again: "In other words, you also heard it, he came on behalf of someone else, think about it again, do you want to change it?" ”

"No need," Xiao Yanzhi replied without hesitation, "Thank you for your concern, but it's good for Erchen to look at him, and he can take someone else's place in front of Erchen, which can be regarded as having a fate with Erchen." ”

The emperor frowned, as if he was still dissatisfied, but he couldn't speak.

Xu Liqian looked at He Yan, then at the emperor, and suddenly said: "Father, Erchen is curious about how the eldest emperor brother chooses people, Erchen and the second emperor brother spent a lot of time when they chose people, but it is the turn of the eldest emperor, the son's tea has not been drunk, the eldest brother's people are back, Erchen is really curious." ”

Could it be that they colluded early in the morning? But who can he, the eldest brother, collude with? King Wu Cheng? Shang Shu Zuocheng? Can't figure it out.

Being mentioned by Xu Liqian, the emperor also looked at Xiao Yanzhi curiously and asked, "I am also curious, in other words, how did you choose?" ”

Xiao Yanzhi turned his head to look at He Yan, and after thinking about it, he smiled lightly: "This person looks at Qi Yu Xuan Ang from afar, and looks at a talent up close, his face is like a crown of jade, and his eyes are like a star, how good!" ”

The emperor was stunned, and suddenly glared at Xiao Yan.

"What's good? Do you choose a concubine or a guard? ”

He Yan was also very depressed when he heard this comment. He studied hard for so many years, but in the end he won the favor of the prince by his appearance? It's a shame for him!

If it was in the past, even in front of the emperor, He Yan would have to refuse this unserious prince, but he had to get the orders of King Wucheng to specially flash the waist of the previous person, how could he not do anything to smash King Wucheng.

Hearing the emperor's question, Xiao Yanzhi rolled his eyebrows and said innocently: "Isn't the selection of guards and concubines almost the same?" ”
