The official document of the promotion of the imperial court was soon sent to the southeast palace.

This is an official ordered by His Majesty to be promoted, and the reason for the promotion is because he saved Princess Changle, and Shen Ning had a meritorious role in killing the remnants of the Shen family before, so the officials did not dare to make a stumbling block.

In this way, Shen Ning became the captain of the sixth grade.

Sima Haiyun was there, Shen Ning had already greeted him in advance, so Sima Haiyun did not doubt it, but was very happy, after all, in his opinion, the stronger Shen Ning was, the easier it would be for him in the future, and if someone helped him govern Xuzhou, he would be able to eat delicious food beautifully.

On the other side, the news that the person behind the Black Tiger Gang is a branch of the Yang family reached His Majesty, in order to calm the anger of Princess Changle and to beat the Yang family, Sima Zhou, who had not been in the early dynasty for many days, went to the early dynasty and severely reprimanded Shang Shuling, that is, Uncle Yang.

drenched the dog scolded by Uncle Yang Guo with blood and lost a lot of face. I heard that after returning home, I threw my anger on Yang Jian, scolding how could I have such a stupid son.

Concubine Yan in the harem heard that her brother was reprimanded, so she naturally couldn't plead, so she found a time to see Sima Zhou, and said a few words about her brother, which made Sima Zhou extinguish the fire.

As for Princess Changle's side, Concubine Yan also sent a large number of treasures, which can be regarded as an apology.

And after Princess Changle went to the Jingxin Palace to accompany Sima Qing, she never forgot one thing in her heart, that is, she beat Zhao Qingxuan. Taking advantage of His Majesty's absence in the alchemy room, Changle arrived there.

After three or four days of rest, the brand on Zhao Qingxuan's buttocks no longer hurts, but somehow, I always feel uncomfortable and have a strange feeling.

She had been cursing Shen Ning for several days, and if the curse worked, Shen Ning didn't know how many times she had died.

Today, she finally calmed down and was about to try the new formula of Danfang, but suddenly heard that Princess Changle was coming.

She immediately went out to greet her.

When the two women met, they looked at each other seriously.

"No wonder my father loves Xuan Guiren so much, Xuan Guiren's appearance is really exquisite." Princess Changle said with a smile.

Zhao Qingxuan didn't know the purpose of Princess Changle's visit, she responded with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the princess is polite, Her Royal Highness the princess is as beautiful as a fairy, and she doesn't eat fireworks in the world." Princess, please come in. ”

The two entered the inner room and sat down, and after the palace maid served tea, Zhao Qingxuan asked the palace maid to retreat.

"I wonder why the princess is here?" Zhao Qingxuan asked.

Princess Changle didn't play dumb riddles, and asked bluntly: "Shen Ning pretending to be Brother Ling, has the Xuan nobles investigated clearly?" ”

Zhao Qingxuan's face changed slightly, and he replied: "I have already sent someone to Pengcheng, and I will come back in these two days." ”

Princess Changle nodded and continued: "After finding out, if Brother Ling didn't die at the hands of Shen Ning, I still hope that Xuan Guiren will find another murderer to take revenge, and don't slander good people." Shen Ning is the life-saving benefactor of this palace, and he is very important to this palace, if you let this palace know that someone is talking nonsense in front of His Majesty, don't blame this palace for being unkind! ”

Only then did Zhao Qingxuan understand that Princess Changle was not good at coming, and she came to beat herself.

"Princess, are you threatening me?" Zhao Qingxuan was not easy to bully, and immediately asked.

Princess Changle smiled: "That's right, it's a threat to you!" Although you are favored by my father, I hope you understand that there are three thousand beauties in the harem, who can be favored for a long time? The most important thing in the harem is beauty. And women know women best, and Xuan nobles should know that women's hearts are the smallest. If you stay in this alchemy room, you can ignore what is going on outside the window, but the ups and downs of the harem will have to be faced after all. If you have time, you have to go to the other concubines to say goodbye, after all, you are just a nobleman. ”

Zhao Qingxuan's face did not change, and responded: "What the princess said is very true, I wrote it down." ”

But in his heart, Zhao Qingxuan sighed, and a sadness was born in his heart.

She didn't hate Princess Changle's threat, but felt that she was right. Once he loses the favor of His Majesty, then he will lose everything, and now the harem concubines all look at themselves unpleasantly, waiting to see their own jokes, especially the four favorite concubines, who regard themselves as enemies.

Princess Changle stood up and said, "Everything that should be said has been said, I hope that Xuan Guiren will think it clearly and don't need to send it!" ”

Seeing Princess Changle leave, Zhao Qingxuan sighed, rubbed her eyebrows, and the plan in her heart that originally wanted to frame Shen Ning was immediately dispelled, now is not the time!

......

When there were still ten days left before the emperor's birthday, the old residence of the Shen family had been cleaned and repaired.

On this day, a carriage came out of the palace and stopped at the Shen Mansion under the escort of a group of earth tiger guards. At this time, in front of the mansion, there is a plaque of the Yiyang Princess's Mansion, and from now on, this is Sima Qing's Princess's Mansion.

The magnates in the imperial capital all knew that Sima Qing was out of the palace.

But no one came to celebrate, and the front of the house was empty.

Sima Qing got out of the carriage and looked at the pillar stone standing in front of the mansion, and her tears flowed unconsciously.

"I'm back."

The family has been away for eighteen years and is now finally back.

Eighteen years, things are wrong, but hatred has not been forgotten, but with the accumulation of time, more and more memories are still fresh.

"When I came out of the palace, some people would be afraid. And that's just the beginning! I want to make you feel the cold to the bone, and I will make you pay with blood! ”

When Sima Qing was young, she was a woman who didn't let her eyebrows go, so she was in love, she wanted revenge, how could she be a mouthful?

Then, Sima Qing walked into the house and went home!

Shen Ning got the news, but he also knew that Sima Zhou was not worried about his mother, so he sent the Earth Tiger Guard to protect Sima Qing, the actual purpose was to monitor.

So it's not easy to see my mother.

But this is not difficult for Shen Ning, don't forget, Shen Ning is also a member of the Earth Tiger Guard now.

Today, he took the initiative to find Yang Jian and asked him to accompany him to the official office of the Earth Tiger Guard.

"Brother Shen, we will be colleagues in the future. I'll tell you a good story about the Earth Tiger Guard! ”

"Our Tiger Guard directly obeys His Majesty's orders, so there is no need for the Bird Su Guard, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple, and the people we want to arrest, they have no right to manage. Because it is impossible for His Majesty to give orders in person, Xu Chongzhi's father-in-law served as the factory father, which was regarded as the head of the Earth Tiger Guard. Below is a capitalist, the righteous son of Xu Chongzhi, and naturally a eunuch, named Wei Zhongcheng, who is as his name suggests, very loyal to the court. But this man is narrow-minded, so you have to be careful. Further down, there are two deputy commanders, one is me and the other is Xiao Yue. I don't need to introduce much, we are so acquainted. Xiao Yue is Xiao Rui's half-brother and was born in the side room. As for this Xiao Yue's personality, he is a very righteous person. ”

"Further down, there are twelve divisions of the earth branch, and six divisions of Xiao Yue and I are each. I am in charge of the Evil Department, the New Tooth Department, the Ground Removal Department, the Covering Department, the Earthquake Department, and the Earthquake Department. Xiao Yue is in charge of the Killing Department, the Ambition Department, the Extension Department, the Twilight Department, the Destruction Department, and the Nuclear Department. ”

...

With Yang Jian's introduction, Shen Ning had a systematic understanding of Earth Tiger Guard.

Needless to say, the main thing to do is the twelve earthly branches, and the names of the twelve earthly branches are also very particular.

For example, the son in the earthly branch is the iniquity, the yang energy is moving, and all things are sprouting, so it is the evil part.

For example, the ugliness in the earthly branch is the meaning of the new, and the new teeth are ugly.

This is the weather represented by the twelve earthly branches, to name the twelve.

However, although the name of the Twelve is good, the official duties are very low.

The imperial court has a complete institution of the imperial court, the criminal side has the Dali Temple and the criminal department, and the garrison has the Su Guard, so what does the tiger guard do?

Therefore, Di Huwei can only steal other people's jobs, or just do things that are vaguely defined and unwilling to be touched by other officials.

It can be said that the work of the Earth Tiger Guard is completely off track.

If Xu Chongzhi had Wei Zhongxian's thoughts, he would have cultivated the Earth Tiger Guard into a brocade guard, and became a murderous weapon for officials to talk about paper discoloration.

It's a pity that Xu Chongzhi didn't do this, even if he had a lot of ideas, he didn't dare, this was a big deal that offended everyone.

As for Emperor Sima Zhou, he couldn't even think of this.

Shen Ning suddenly had an idea, the world was already so chaotic, he didn't mind being more chaotic, shouldn't he introduce the advantages of Dongchang to Sima Zhou?

There's a head!

You can try it later.

Shen Ning and Yang Jian took out their waist cards and verified that they were behind them before entering the imperial city.

After passing through one official office, such as the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry... Finally came to the Earth Tiger Guard.

The official office is very magnificent, and on both sides of the door, there are two rows of ground tiger guards.

The costume of the Earth Tiger Guard is very handsome, called the Earth Tiger Suit, the whole is a black single robe, the neckline is overlapped, the right side is on the top, the wide sleeves are tied to the waist, and the hem is wide and "dragging" style. On the chest, back, shoulders, sleeves and knees, color weaving with flowing clouds, evil tiger patterns.

Worn on the body, the shape is very magnificent, and with a sharp knife on the waist, you can flirt with good women at will when you walk on the street.

"See the Horse Master!" When the earth tiger guards saw Yang Jian, they immediately clasped their fists and shouted.

Yang Jian likes to let people call him the concubine, lest others not know that he is the concubine of Princess Changle.

Yang Jian nodded and said, "This is Captain Shen, Gonggong Xu has an order, he will be in charge of the earthquake department in the future, he has recognized it clearly, do you know?" ”

Therefore, the people immediately bowed to Shen Ning again, and shouted in unison: "My subordinates meet Captain Shen!" ”

Shen Ning nodded, and walked in with Yang Jian.

Just now, Shen Ning had already asked Yang Jian, and Xu Chongzhi asked him to take charge of one department, and the earthquake department under Yang Jian's command had been idle, only the entire number, and there was no one.

According to Di Huwei's knowledge, one can recruit up to 300 people, Yang Jian knew that Shen Ning would return to Xuzhou, so Yang Jian directly gave Shen Ning permission and asked him to gather his subordinates by himself, and when the time comes, he can directly register and make a record of his identity.

This made Shen Ning very happy, the Earth Tiger Guard he recruited himself was the most loyal subordinate. Xuzhou is just a springboard for Shen Ning, the pattern there is too small, and when Shen Ning grows up there and has troops, he will definitely return to the imperial capital, and this is the intersection of wind and clouds.

So when Shen Ning came back, his Earth Tiger Guard should have begun to take shape.

Entered the ground tiger guard, passed through the front yard and atrium, and continued to go deeper and deeper to the backyard.

"Brother Shen, I heard that you are coming today, Wei Dutong has not gone out, and is waiting to see you." Yang Jian said.

Shen Ning nodded, and was also very curious about this Xu Chongzhi's righteous son.
