Frustrated: "Zhengnan, you don't have to worry about this. The lord has already taken into account the difficulties of the poor students. In the second phase, the Ministry of Household Affairs will be ordered to provide accommodation and food to all students to ensure their daily needs. ”

"If, at the end of the day, you really can't choose much, you can omit some steps, which can be adjusted. In short, the matter of scientific research has been decided and cannot be revised for the time being. We will set for tomorrow to conduct a scientific expedition in the courtyard of the Ministry of Officials. We are all examiners, so we must do our part. ”

"This is a lot of things for the invigilator, and your responsibilities, take a look..." The frustration asked people to take out a few materials and give them to the examiners present, one for each person.

In the north school field, Wen Chou is training the guards.

This group of guards was just selected, and together with the previous guards, there were more than 3,000 people, all armed with swords and bows and arrows, and they were mainly trained in melee combat and shooting.

Whoosh...

Wen Chou is training there.

Yuan Xi took Gao Ji, the right attendant who had just joined the military department, and Ju Yi, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, to explain some things to them.

"At this recruitment meeting, there are a lot of people in Yecheng, not only those who participate in the scientific examination, but also the candidates' entourage, family members, and various caravans. In total, it is estimated that there are tens of thousands of people. This will make Yecheng livelier than ever. But at the same time, it's more chaotic than ever. General Ju, as the commander of the Zhili Forbidden Army, must do a good job of security. I don't want to see any bloodshed happen, and I don't want others to think that we can't even protect our capital. General Ju, do you understand what I mean? Yuan Xi asked.

"The last will understand. In the end, this will be arranged, and the troops will be tripled to stand guard and patrol, and they will not rest at night, so as to ensure the safety of the people of Yecheng. Ju Yi replied.

"Hmm. One more thing. I heard that Hu Bingyun has been imprisoned in the forbidden army prison since he was brought back, is there such a thing? ”

"Yes." Ju Yi replied: "Because the prison of the Criminal Department is still under construction, and the soldiers of the Criminal Department have not undergone strict training, I am afraid it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility." Therefore, Hu Bingyun could only be guarded by the forbidden army. ”

Yuan Xi advised: "Take care of him, and as soon as the recruitment meeting is over, tie him up on the street, read his guilt, and let the people deal with it." ”

Ju Yi said: "Don't worry, the lord can't run..." ”

"I know he can't run, but what if he kills himself?"

"This..."

Yuan Xi was not at ease in his heart, and told him again: "Tie him up to prevent him from hitting the wall." Stuff him with another piece of cotton cloth in his mouth, and don't let him bite his tongue and kill himself. ”

"The last will understand." Ju Yi hurried to make arrangements.

Gao Ji, who was following behind, walked a few steps quickly: "Brother-in-law, I don't seem to have much to do in the military department, can you let me come to the barracks?" I can endure hardship, and I can do whatever I want. ”

"You think it's fun to be in the army, don't you?"

"No, I'm just idle."

Yuan Xi said: "I asked you to go to the military department and serve as the right squire, because I want to train you and learn to manage the local army." After you have exercised well, I will explain important things to you. How can you be impatient? ”

"Brother-in-law, just promise me..."

"Don't call me brother-in-law. This is in the barracks, not in the house. There is also the transfer and promotion of officials, which is like a military order, how can it be said that it will be changed? Again... Are you stupid? What's good in the barracks, you are new to the barracks, and you can only be a captain. But in the military department, how many lieutenants can you manage? All the local armies in the world must obey the movement of the military headquarters. ”

Yuan Xi patiently persuaded him, and finally made Gao Ji dispel the idea of leaving the military department. Yuan Xi is not angry, children, it is easy to be hot for three minutes, and it is inevitable to be frustrated.

.............

In the distance, Wen Chou was still training the guards.

Yuan Xi took Gao Ji over and asked about the current situation of the guards.

"These are selected from all armies, experienced in combat, and integrated with our original guards for training. It will be sent to the guards in a few days. ”

"Hmm."

Yuan Xi has always attached great importance to the guards. Because the soldiers who stand guard and patrol in the state capital, the Sixth Department, and the Military Administration Office in peacetime are all guards. They are closest to the core secrets and the ministers. If there is a problem with loyalty, isn't it about killing whoever you want? Therefore, the selection of them is extremely strict. Not only is his family background innocent, he has made countless military exploits, but he also has more than five years of combat experience.

And the rewards for the guards are also very different from other armies.

The monthly salary has tripled!

This is enough for the family of the guards to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

Yuan Xi walked around the queue and said slowly: "As a guard, Yu Lu is three times as many as others, and there are a lot of gifts and rewards during the New Year's holidays. Your family members have to be polite even to the county ordinance in the local area. All these benefits are not given in vain. It's your honor to be chosen to be the Guard, but at the same time, you have a responsibility. ”

"Can anyone tell me what your responsibilities are?"

A veteran in his fifties arched his hand and said: "Back to the lord, the guards are willing to die for the lord!" ”

"Your answer was short and correct. But it's not comprehensive enough. The Guards are to protect not only my safety, but also the safety of all the ministers. There are some secret places that only you can go to, but some secrets cannot be brought out. General Wen Chou should have told you about these things, and I won't say it a second time. I hope you can do your own thing and don't let down the three words of honor. ”

"Yes..."

Everyone yelled.

"Let's keep training." Yuan Xi left with Gao Ji.

Under the leadership of Wen Chou, they continued to train.

With Yuan Xi's support and encouragement, they worked harder.

Back to the state capital.

Zhen Yan sent a message.

"The deal with Sun Quan has been successfully completed. We have received more than 40 million dollars, which have been handed over to the Ministry of Households. Sun Quan also wanted to order 20 million yuan of elixir and jade liquor, but the minister did not agree to him. Zhen Yan said.

"You're doing the right thing."

Yuan Xi sat down at the coffee table and motioned for Zhen Yan to sit down as well: "Qiong Jelly Jade Liquor can create a lethal weapon similar to a fire oil explosion." This matter, presumably Sun Quan already knows. He was anxious to improve his strength, but he didn't know how to brew the Qiong Jelly Jade Liquor, so he asked us to buy it. We can't give them a lot of wine for a mere 20 million dollars. Otherwise, you are looking for your own death. ”

Zhen Yan nodded and said, "The minister also took this into account, so he didn't sell it to him." ”

"At present, there are very few liquor brewed, only supplied internally, only retailed externally, and the number of retail sales is controlled. Anything with more than five bottles must be registered. You Zhen must have a large number of bars on your hands? I hope you can cooperate with the household department and sell alcohol in moderation. ”
