When Li Shimin saw the touching scenes of these sergeants, he took the initiative to "plead" with Qin Mubai. It is said that the assessment criteria can be appropriately relaxed. Especially for the first assessment, can we consider making a special case and not eliminating people? Otherwise, such a good 300 soldiers would be fired, what a pity!

Qin Mubai rejected the emperor very "unreasonably", saying that a military order is a military order, and a rule is a rule. If everyone is finally selected, wouldn't it be a great injustice to those soldiers who have trained harder and done better in the exam? In the future, no one will be willing to work hard. Elimination and competition will be the eternal melody of Baiqi in the future. In this way, the whole army will mature and progress day by day.

Li Shimin, the emperor who led the soldiers, didn't say much. After shaking his head and sighing, he sighed: "This kid is really ruthless enough, and he is a material for doing big things." I'm not wrong! In the future, will there be an army more elite than a hundred horsemen in this world? ”

The examination method promulgated in advance, everyone was together day and night with the same training, and the examination was completely fair, and in the end, the people who remained were at peace and happy, and the people who left were convinced and reluctant.

Even a group of people such as Changsun Jian and Wei Chi Baoyun who were very bad with Qin Mubai at first, although they still didn't have a good impression of him, they could only secretly convince Qin Mubai in their hearts.

In three months, Qin Mubai completely became the unique supreme commander and spiritual leader of the Hundred Cavalry Army. His authority was no longer unshakeable, and everyone, including his "enemy" Changsun Chuan and others, had to bow down to him.

After a few days of rest and deployment, the new Baiqi can finally officially take office.

Li Shimin's expectations and preferences for this army of 100 cavalry are beyond the ordinary. He ordered the people of the Ordnance Department to work overtime day after day to produce a batch of the most gorgeous and high-end armor weapons, which were distributed as special equipment unique to the Hundred Cavalry.

All the same color of golden bright light armor, white robe and white tassels, each pair of armor and helmet can clearly print the figure. What is unique is that on the left breastplate of each suit of armor and on the scabbard of the saber, there is an engraved "Qilin Military Beast Totem", which symbolizes the hundred horses, which is also the symbol of their medals and officers.

And Qin Mubai, the highest commander of the hundred cavalry, in addition to gold armor and other things, also gave a fiery red golden silk robe printed with a unicorn. And on top of his robe, there is also a golden dragon's five-clawed claw-five-clawed golden dragon, which is the symbol of the emperor's special banner. This has also become a special symbol of Qin Mubai, a hundred horsemen. As long as he wears this cloak and robe, he Qin Mubai can travel freely in any corner of the palace, he can stay by the emperor's side with a knife, and he can do anything at any time to protect the emperor - for example, at a critical moment, decisively draw a knife and kill someone who may pose a threat to the emperor.

In this way, the special status, identity, functions and authority of the hundred cavalry envoys are enough to make some famous ministers and generals of the current dynasty jealous and jealous.

Famous ministers and generals, there is only greed and jealousy. They all knew in their hearts that when the emperor formed such a new army, all the young newcomers were selected, and their intentions and goals were very clear. First of all, when the emperor chooses people, he is selected in the Shi clan. Keeping the children of the ministers and generals by their side would be extremely beneficial to co-opting, uniting, and controlling those courtiers.

Moreover, young people, most of whom are not deeply involved in the world, are relatively simple, easy to train and brainwash, so that they are absolutely loyal to the emperor. And those ministers and generals who have been mixed in the officialdom for more than ten years and decades, not good. They've been mixed for too long, and they're all human spirits. Moreover, between the families of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, who is not very close to each other, and there are many personal grievances between each other.

Such people are too complicated, think too much, think about things before and after, and have their minds full of stakes. And the personal guard that Li Shimin wants should be a team that kills decisively and obeys the emperor's orders. There is no need to be sleek and sophisticated, the only requirement is - obedience!

Therefore, Qin Mubai's dedication to Li Shimin's hundred horses made him very satisfied, which coincided with his original intention, and even far exceeded his expectations.

One day in the summer, Baiqi finally made its official debut.

On this day, when the emperor was in the early dynasty, Qin Mubai and the deputy envoy Sun Lian, with a team of 100 horsemen, came to Daming Palace to welcome the emperor's holy car, and went to the Taiji Hall of Taiji Palace to go to the court.

The emperor rode the dragon chariot, Qin Mubai and the eldest grandson, two hundred cavalry officers, and the lotus armor saber boarded the dragon chariot left and right. Hundreds of cavalry soldiers surrounded the emperor, and the soldiers of Jin Wuwei on the periphery waved the emperor's banner, and hundreds of people went to Taiji Palace.

In the past, these tasks were all Kim Wuwei's. Now seeing a team of hundred cavalry sergeants separating them from the emperor, Jin Wuwei's people could not help but feel unhappy. But since they are all Imperial Forest Army, they also know the special status of the hundred horsemen in the emperor's mind, and at the same time, they have also heard of the power of the hundred horses. Therefore, if they are not happy, they dare not express any dissatisfaction.

"What's the solution? People have the capital of cattle! ”

The emperor has come to court. Qin Mubai and the eldest grandson, one step behind the emperor, walked into the Jinluan Hall before the eunuchs, and stood in front of the palace with a knife and fork. The other hundred cavalry soldiers stood with swords inside and outside the hall to protect Li Shimin's arch. In the past, this function should have been performed by Qianniuwei. Now, the soldiers of Qianniuwei were sent to stand guard on the Longwei Road outside the Golden Temple. The Yulin Guard, which has the largest number of people and the most famous in the Imperial Forest Army, is spread around the Taiji Palace, with five steps, one sentry, ten steps and one post, and the entire palace is strictly guarded against illegality.

As the emperor said, no matter how the garrison around him is replaced in the future, the hundred cavalry will always be the closest and closest to him.

The civil and military officials entered the court one after another, and they all set their eyes on the hundred horsemen who had just appeared on the scene, and paid more attention to Qin Mubai and Changsun Lian, the two courtiers who were closest to the emperor.

Right now, it is impossible for Qin Mubai to know everyone in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. When it was, there was no doubt that everyone knew him.

The court deliberated, and the courtiers played the book one by one. At this time, Qin Mubai also remembered several famous characters. For example, the famous Zhenguan is famous and Fang Xuanling. In the early years, when Li Shimin was still the king of Qin, the three most important strategists around him were his brother-in-law Sun Wuji, and the other was "Fang Mou Du Xuan" - Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling.

Du Ruhui died of illness six or seven years ago. Now, the resourceful, steady and loyal Fang Xuanling is one of Li Shimin's most trusted arms.

Fang Xuanling is in her early fifties this year, she was born with a kind eyebrow and kind eyes, she is not tall and fat, she is not in a hurry, she is calm and powerful, and her knowledge and words always give people a feeling of being sharp and unique. In just one early dynasty, he received several verbal praises from Li Shimin, saying that he was far-sighted and loyal to the country, and should be an example for hundreds of officials.

Qin Mubai stood in front of the Jinluan Palace to escort, although he did not have the right to participate in politics, but the matter discussed by the emperor and these people, it was all heard in his ears word by word.

Listening to the deliberations of these most knowledgeable and capable politicians today, Qin Mubai felt that this was more rewarding than reading tens of thousands of books. Here, it is simply the highest university today that is hard to find and cannot be entered even if you have money. So he sometimes thinks that even if I am a wick and listen to the scriptures and talk about the Buddha in front of the Buddha's seat all day long, then one day I will realize that I will become successful in refining and cultivating.

The court meeting dispersed, and the emperor was the first to leave. Qin Mubai and Changsun Jian followed behind the emperor and entered through the emperor's special dragon gate on the side of the Jinluan Palace. The other civil and military ministers lined up in a neat line and exited from the main gate.

After getting out of the court, Li Shimin went straight to the imperial study of the Wude Hall and reviewed some chapters. At this time, Qin Mubai, the supreme official, can "move freely". The hundred horses practice a typical "three shifts". Three deputy envoys come to work on time every day. Qin Mubai, the envoy, can freely arrange his own work if he is not assigned by the emperor. You can personally lead the team to work, or you can handle other military affairs in the camp of the hundred horsemen.

Moreover, Baiqi also has a strict vacation system to ensure that every soldier has a few days of vacation time every month. In general, although this job is intense and serious, it is still a degree.

In the evening, Qin Mubai and Cheng Huaibi took a team of people to the Wude Hall to take over the shift, preparing to escort the emperor back to the harem for dinner and rest.

The current harem is the entire Daming Palace. Empress Changsun is no longer there, and the other four concubines and nine concubines are all living here in separate halls. In addition, there is a court where palace maids and eunuchs live. Normally, even if the prime minister was not summoned by the emperor, he would not dare to come here.

Today is the first day of Baiqi's work, so Qin Mubai intends to familiarize himself with every job position of Baiqi.

After the emperor entered the Daming Palace, he first went to the Hanyuan Hall for dinner. At this time, the little prince Li Zhi and the little princess Li Mingda, who were personally raised by the legendary emperor, appeared.

Li Zhi, Emperor Gaozong, who succeeded Li Shimin in history, is still only ten years old, and he is a minor child. Li Mingda is Li Shimin's favorite daughter, the eldest grandson Empress is born, and Li Zhi is a pair of siblings, and she is only four years old this year.

Seeing the brother and sister for the first time, Qin Mubai only glanced at it, and Li Shimin walked into the inner dining room with one by one, and enjoyed the joy of family under the service of the eunuchs and palace maids. Qin Mubai could only take people out of the door to wait for orders. When it was getting dark, Li Zhi, the king of Jin, and Li Mingda, the princess of Jinyang, were taken away by the nurse. Emperor Li Shimin, who had been busy for a day, left Hanyuan Hall and went to the apse where the concubines lived.
