Fengqiyuan, Yun Qian and Qian Kun were drinking tea and chatting, and when Qian Kun's words box opened, he turned out to be a complete chatterbox. Although he didn't say anything about the words that would lose his head, he also told Yun Qian a lot of strange things between palace maids and eunuchs.

Maybe it's because of the shared forbidden story, Yun Qian and Qian Kun have formed a friendship-like trust and honesty.

When it was nearly dusk, Mr. Qian's husband came in a hurry, and when he saw Qian Kun sitting with Yun Qian, he just scolded him angrily, but he liked Yun Qian even more in his heart.

drove Qian Kun out, and Mr. Qian said apologetically: "General Yun has been waiting for a long time, and our family is doing one thing after another today, and I really can't get out of the way." ”

"My father-in-law is worried about the king, and his affairs are busy, so why not wait a little longer." Yun shallow means understanding.

Gonggong Qian nodded gently, and began to say with a straight face: "The official position of General Wang Feng is called the Southwest Temple Governor and Cavalry Captain, and he is a seven-rank martial artist, which is a very special position. It was established in the Yuanxing period of the previous dynasty, when Emperor Yanwu forcibly gathered military power and strictly forbade the princes and ministers to raise private soldiers, so they set up the Jianguo Temple to supervise the guards and horses to protect and monitor the princes and ministers. After Emperor Yanwu, the imperial power slowly loosened, and the government soldiers flourished again, and the superintendent of the temple became a fictitious, and when it came to Emperor Yan Xiao, it was directly abolished, and only some forms were retained in the imperial city. When I David founded the kingdom, the king kept this tradition. “

Yun Qian listened very carefully, and Gonggong Qian took a sip of tea and continued: "The Guardian of Jianguo Temple has now been directly divided into five temples, namely: East Temple, West Temple, South Temple, Southwest Temple, and Southeast Temple, each of which is responsible for an area outside the Jinling Royal City. The five monasteries were unified into the forbidden army, but they directly obeyed the dispatch of the inner court. The Southwest Temple, which is under your command, has jurisdiction over 40 streets in the southwest of Jinling, bounded by two streets, Xiaoxiang and Shunde. ”

"What are the specific functions?" Yun Qian humbly asked.

"Each temple is responsible for protecting the safety of the mansions of the officials in the jurisdiction, and you will know the details when you join the office. Your jurisdiction is slightly different, and there is also a second-class official post in it, which is used to receive local officials who enter Beijing below the fifth grade. Father-in-law Qian briefly explained to Yun Qian.

Yun Qian became more and more puzzled the more he listened: "But the duties of the forbidden army and the patrol of Jinling Mansion also include these." ”

"As our family said before, the overseer has long been in vain, its official rank is not high, and its responsibilities overlap with all parties, plus now some powerful officials all have a group of private soldiers and evil servants, this errand is not easy to do." Father-in-law Qian looked at Yun Qian lightly, and suddenly said solemnly: "If you want to make a difference, unless you act fearlessly and ruthlessly. ”

Yun Qian seemed to understand a little bit why King Wei arranged such a position for himself, this is to treat himself as a swordman. He smiled bitterly and said: "My subordinates don't have half a foundation in this Jinling City, I'm afraid that any official jumping out of this Jinling City can crush me to death." ”

"Our family is your backer. Don't forget, those princes and ministers, Xiangye, Shiziye, and you, after all, are all princes and courtiers. A courtier must understand the duty of being a courtier. Father-in-law Qian, who has always been gentle, became cold.

"Subordinates follow the teachings of the public." Yun Qian got up and bowed to Grandpa Qian.

"It's not a teaching, General Yun is so smart, he can naturally understand this. Xiangye and Shiziye also seem to appreciate the general. Father-in-law Qian smiled kindly again.

"The subordinates are only loyal to the king and do things for their father-in-law." Yun Qian was not so sluggish that he couldn't hear the voice-over.

Father-in-law Qian patted Yun Qian with satisfaction and said, "As an official in the court, you can't be too withdrawn. If others are willing to make friends with the general, it is not a bad thing to have a few more friends, as long as the general remembers what he said in the imperial study. ”

"My subordinates understand." After all, Yun Qian was born in a family of eunuchs, so of course he knew who Father-in-law Qian meant by these words.

"Hmm. After three days, our family will arrange someone to take you to take over the position, and the relevant documents and seals will also be delivered. We have a house in the southwest, you can also go and see it when the time comes, and if you don't dislike it, you can stay there. If you are on official business, you will have to live in a restaurant all the time, and there will be a lot of inconvenience. It's not too early, let's send you out of the palace. "Father-in-law Qian is obviously very good to Yun Qian.

Yun Qian took the carriage arranged by the inner court back to Yanyu Building, and as soon as he got off the carriage, he saw the chubby figure squatting at the door.

"Little Brother Yunqian, you're finally back." Liu Qishou rushed up and gave Yun Qian a bear hug full of resentment.

"Uh... Lao Liu, calm down. Yun Qian was a little uncomfortable with this sudden enthusiasm.

"If you don't come back, the old man will be starved into a flat persimmon." Liu Qishou was a little aggrieved.

"I didn't expect you to be so good, Lao Liu, and wait for me to eat together." Yun Qian looked at the fat man with a flat stomach very moved.

Liu Qishou said with some annoyance: "Phew, if the boss lady didn't let me eat, who would wait for you, stinky boy." ”

“…..” Yun Qian embarrassedly put Liu Qi's hand to the side.

"Come in and eat when you get back." Lijiu's crisp voice came out.

During the closure period, there were only more than a dozen people left in the building, and it was very warm to gather around a large table of sumptuous dinners at this time.

After a full meal and wine, Li Jiu called Yun Qian away alone as usual, and Liu Qishou was beside him and squeezed his eyebrows.

"How?" Li Jiu closed the door and turned around to ask Yun Qian.

"King Wei knows that I am wanted in Daliang, but he still made me a captain of the Southwest Temple. I feel that there seems to be some problems with the government and the opposition now, and he urgently needs someone to serve him. Yun Qian said his thoughts in a few words.

Li Jiu shook her head slightly when she heard this, she was born in a family of Yan Guo's official eunuchs, so she naturally knew best what this Southwest Temple Captain was: "This Southwest Temple Captain is a false position, and the power in her hands is only afraid that it is not as good as a Bai Commander in the border army." ”

Yun Qian now has a tacit understanding with Lijiu, and he immediately said all kinds of situations in the palace, including the last words of Eunuch Qian, word for word.

Li Jiu listened to Yun Qian's clear discussion, and felt that he had grown a lot during this time, and said with a relieved face: "Yes, it seems that you are more accurate in judging this matter than me." Since you can get a glimpse of King Wei's concerns, then continue to dig out this hidden danger. Now I can only roughly guess that King Wei's power seems to have been divided a lot by Jiang Pingxuan and Su Shen. I think what we need to do is to develop our own forces and at the same time continue to intensify the contradictions between them. And the palace secret you mentioned earlier may bring a fatal blow to the government and the opposition at a critical time. ”

"Are we going to overthrow the country and rebel?" Yun Qian was a little incredulous, Li Jiu's plan was so crazy, he had always just felt that his mission was just to do some intelligence gathering and assassination.

"It's not a rebellion, it's a recovery of what belongs to my Dayan. The defenders are a bunch of perfidious scum. Li Jiu said coldly: "Of course, this is not an overnight thing. For now, all you need to do is hold on to Wei Wang's thigh, and climb as high as possible. also maintain a little ambiguity with Jiang Pingxuan and Su Shen, so that they can continue to expect something from you. ”

Looking at Li Jiu's eyes full of hatred, Yun Qian was a little silent.
