Chapter 446: A new official takes office
Princess Taiping stayed in the palace and did not return overnight.
At dawn, Xue Shao just woke up, and found that there was no one around, but the washing water had been ready, and the Huadian embroidered clothes that he was going to change had been folded neatly and placed in the middle hall, and even the boots were spotlessly brushed and placed on the shoe couch going out.
This is naturally the masterpiece of the Moon Slave.
Xue Shao smiled knowingly, he hadn't enjoyed this kind of treatment for a while.
After washing up and going out, the moon slave had already finished changing his clothes and changed into a heroic military uniform, and after serving Xue Shao for breakfast, the two left home together and went to the Xuanwu Gate of Daming Palace.
"Childe, you have finally been named a thousand horsemen by the imperial court!" Yue Nu was as happy as if she had picked up a big bargain, and smiled from ear to ear, "This time it's finally a big luck!" β
Xue Shao suddenly smiled, "If you can't speak, say a few words." These four Zhonglang generals, did I pick it up by chance? β
The moon slave hurriedly slapped his mouth, "The moon slave should be damned!" This mere Zhonglang will be what the son deserves! I still think Childe is succumbing!
"If you go to the palace, you should say that your majesty is very gracious, and the queen of heaven is important." Xue Shao said, "Remember? β
The moon slave was straight-eyed, "Childe, do you have to tell lies and pat yourself on the back as an official?" β
Xue Shao laughed, "You should be it!" β
"But I won't!" The moon slave was still anxious, "Then I won't talk when I go to the palace, but don't spoil the matter of the son!" β
Xue Shao laughed again, "It seems that you have really grown up and learned to shut up." β
Yue Nu hurriedly covered her mouth and blinked her eyes repeatedly, muttering indistinctly: "Then I really don't speak." β
There is plenty of time to go to court today, and the two of them walked and chatted together to the North Yamen, and just entered the Yamen of the Martial Arts Academy, and saw that it was in full swing. Xue Chuyu and the others didn't practice archery today, and they were chatting hotly together.
"Why don't you practice martial arts, but you talk so happily?" Xue Shao jumped off his horse and stepped forward to ask.
Xue Chuyu stepped forward and bowed, "Childe...... Oh no, I'm going to call the general from now on! - General, we are discussing, and when the general arrives, we will follow the general to the Thousand Cavalry Camp to take up our duties! The formation has been set up there, ready to welcome the new Thousand Rider General! β
"That's it?" Xue Shao smiled, "Wulang, I won't talk about others." You and Guo Yuanzhen have seen the world, are you worth being like this? β
Guo Yuanzhen stepped forward with a smile and said, "General, we have seen the world, hundreds of thousands of battles!" But among the hundreds of thousands of people, only about 100 of them are soldiers brought by us, and they are only addicted to seeing the world once! This time it's different, Qianqi is the royal rate, the elite of the elite. Five-color robes, six idle horses, how majestic! Thousands of brothers, more enjoyable! β
Xue Shao shook his head and smiled, "You are full of green forest banditry, you just can't change it!" β
Everyone laughed together, obviously in high spirits.
At this time, Lu Siyi and Tang Zhen rode back together and reported: "Report to General Xue, the thousand cavalry have been assembled, please General Xue come and review!" β
Xue Shao said with a smile: "You two newly appointed captains are quite dutiful!" ββTell me, how do you feel about the thousand horses? β
Lu Siyi hugged his fists and said: "General Xue, to tell you the truth, the equipment of the thousand horsemen is the best in the world, and there is absolutely no one to compare, and the soldiers are indeed the elite of the elite, all of them are tall and mighty, heroic and extraordinary, and many people still like to chant poetry!" However, they may be living too comfortably, many of them have gained weight, and they seem a little lazy when they move. At least, not as energetic as our people who left Fengchenwei. At that time, we had to guard in front of the two holy cars every day, and we couldn't tolerate the slightest laziness and waste! β
"Expected." Xue Shao said, "Qianqi is the elite selected from the Yulin Army, the heart and soul of His Majesty the Emperor, and the best treated group of soldiers in the world, and they are all children of a family, and they have been pampered since they were children, and they have never been on the battlefield. The most diligent thing that Qianqi did was probably to put on their beautiful five-colored robes, ride the six idle horses of the divine horses, and show off their majesty when the two saints traveled. The Yulin Army occasionally participated in hunting or field expeditions. Thousands of horsemen are more like a group of empty shell honor guards. Even the most elite warriors may become a waste person if they are used to this kind of lazy and carefree life. β
"What the general said is very true!" Lu Siyi said, "I, the new lieutenant, went over early in the morning to let them gather for exercise, and their throats were broken, and they couldn't climb the horse slowly, and many people scolded and complained. I'm so angry that I can't wait to whip them a few times! - How have you ever seen such a lazy soldier? β
"But you don't dare to smoke it, do you?" Xue Shao said with a smile, "Each of them has a family background and a background, otherwise they won't be able to enter the Thousand Horses." The prime minister's concierge is also a seven-grade official, these soldiers are only on errands for the two saints, and they are all high-minded. β
Lu Siyi was stunned, "General, you haven't been to the Qianqi Camp yet, how do you know so clearly?" β
Xue Shao smiled: "Do you think that I, the Qianqi Zhonglang, will be appointed casually?" The upcoming Beiya Martial Arts Academy, isn't it just for these soldiers? β
"I said it!" Lu Siyi laughed, and the others laughed along.
"Okay, all of you tidy up your clothes and makeup, and follow me to the Qianqi camp." Xue Shao shouted loudly, "New official, take office!" β
"Yes! βββ
A moment later, Xue Shao and a group of other new officials rode horses together and arrived at the Qianqi camp.
The so-called "thousand horsemen" are actually only 800 men and horses, and the standard establishment of four regiments is, of course, all cavalry. Now, they formed four cavalry phalanxes, waiting for the review of the new lieutenant general. Seeing Xue Shao and the others coming, there was a whisper in the team-
"That's Xue Shao, Princess Taiping's concubine? So young, why should you be our Zhonglang general? β
"I heard that he is still Pei Xingjian's protΓ©gΓ©! A Northern Expedition made a reputation, and the imperial court rewarded him for his meritorious deeds and His Majesty personally promoted him, so that he became our general! β
"What kind of reputation can he make with his appearance? In my opinion, most of them are Pei Xingjian and some other sycophants who fabricated military exploits for Xue Shao in order to invite favor in front of His Majesty the Emperor, just to facilitate his promotion now! To put it bluntly, he relied on this face to meet Princess Taiping, so that he could mix in the court! β
"Hey, why is there a woman? It seems to be quite beautiful! β
"What big boobs!!"
"Wipe off the saliva, shame!"
"That should be the only female general in the world who was awarded by the imperial court not long ago, what's An?"
"Yes, I heard that it was Xue Shao's concubine!"
"I'll just say, right? It's all cronyism! β¦β¦ There are also those who are only on the chest! β
"Actually, I've known him Xue Shao for a long time! Two years ago, Pingkang Fang; He was in the first half of the night, and I was in the second half of the night! Hehe, the famous Lantian son, naturally he can't leave a woman anywhere. β
"Hahaha! As soon as I said Lantian Gongzi, I remembered that such a waste pole has now become our Zhonglang general, what a bad luck!! β
"It's really unlucky, it's really unlucky!"
The group chattered with each other, not like in the army, but a bit like going to the vegetable market.
When Xue Shao saw this scene, he just smiled faintly and didn't attack. Guo Yuanzhen was a little annoyed and raised his hand and was about to step forward to scold, but Xue Shao stopped him and said, "What's the hurry, we have time to clean them up." Take it easy. β
"A bunch of bad guys!" Guo Yuanzhen hated itchy, "It's not as good as the recruits of the Three Swords Brigade we brought at the beginning!" β
"Not necessarily." Xue Chuyu said lightly, "This group of soldiers is much more arrogant than the recruits of the Three Swords Brigade at the beginning. β
"It's good to be arrogant." Xue Shao smiled and said, "A young man will be arrogant, and if he is not arrogant, he is really a bad man." β
"The general is right." Xue Chuyu smiled knowingly and said in a low voice: "If you don't have arrogance, you won't be so enjoyable to clean up!" β
Guo Yuanzhen also smiled, "Makes sense!" Arrogant bastards put it away, it's all useful good bastards! β
Xue Shao looked at the two of them, "It seems that you have all gathered enough energy and are ready to clean up this group of noble rookies?" β
"Of course!"
"Absolutely can't wait!"
The corners of Xue Shao's mouth raised and he smiled slightly, "I suddenly miss a little nostalgic for being scolded behind the back of a group of recruits, but I don't dare to put one more fart in front of me!" β
"I feel the same way!" Xue Chuyu and Guo Yuanzhen laughed together.
After a while, Xue Shao took a group of new officials to the point general platform, standing still like a mountain, and no one spoke loudly, just quietly looking at the eight hundred cavalry in front of him.
The people of the thousand riders didn't care at first, and they didn't care, and they wanted to scratch their heads and take off their helmets to scratch their heads. But after being stared at by Xue Shao and the others who stood on the platform for a while, the team gradually quieted down.
The thousand riders felt a little strange, and they all thought in their hearts, Xue Shao, what kind of trick are they playing? Why have you been here for so long, neither giving orders nor moving, staring at us like a bunch of wood? Are we more beautiful than the beauties in the palace, so we have to stare at it so hard? β¦β¦ Look, we can see the hairs on our backs! β¦β¦ Fuck, don't look at it!
The group was finally completely silent, and no one moved in the slightest.
Xue Shao moved at this time, and walked down from the point platform alone, still not speaking, but walked to the middle of the line, looking at each soldier from head to toe, row by row.
All the soldiers who were watched by Xue Shao without exception had some chills from head to toe, and they felt as if they had been stripped naked in public, extremely uncomfortable and uncomfortable. Occasionally, one or two people glanced at Xue Shao to show their grievances and protests, and Xue Shao directly forced him to look into his eyes until he turned his face and stood straight without squinting.
Guo Yuanzhen, who was on the stage, couldn't help but laugh, and whispered to Xue Chuyu: "Brother, our general's hand is too good." He is like a dumb man with squinting eyes, and he is not ashamed to stare at these noble rookies as beautiful big girls stripped naked! β.
