Chapter Twenty-Six: Entering the Palace
Just like Zhu Qing can't read the future from the murderous eyes, we can't know the half year of Zhu Qing's life after joining Jinyiwei. I only know that Zhu Qing left the capital and went to Tianjin with Killing Wind, because Tianjin is where the factory and health institutions are located. What awaits Zhu Qing here is not only the court staff and the prison, but also all kinds of professional training and the box that Zhu Qing dreams of, the Ming Fourteen Potentials. In that half a year, Qinglong, Baihu, Xuanwu, and Vermilion Bird, the four of them studied all kinds of Jinyi and Wei skills under the hands of Killing Feng, Liu Qingfeng, Dongfang Bai and Yan Shi Niang, from martial arts to power, from spy to military, everything they could learn was learned. They are like rookies, polished into the old A level and even the special elites under the hands of the old A, until they become strong men who are incompatible.
However, just like what Killing Feng said at the beginning, they didn't have a year, at least Qinglong Zhu Qing couldn't wait for a year. Half a year later, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhu Qing was sent back to the capital by Killing Wind to protect the emperor. Because in the past six months, Emperor Chongzhen has had nightmares one after another.
In the battle of Tongguan, Li Zicheng failed to break through the pass, and Sun Chuanting, the governor of Tongguan, failed to move out the thieves in one fell swoop. Li Zicheng had no choice but to retreat, and after Sun Chuanting returned to the capital, he was sent to the prison by Emperor Chongzhen. Crimes, ineffective combat, and appeasement. Because Wang Chengen, the leader of the factory guard, and Ghost Fire both participated in Sun Chuanting's book, saying that he couldn't even detect the infiltration of the thieves, but fortunately, Ghost Fire led Jinyi Wei to see through the conspiracy of Xu Hongfei and Huzi, otherwise let the thieves join forces inside, I'm afraid that Tongguan has been broken, Kaifeng is not guaranteed, and it threatens Jingshi.
The already dangerous Ming Dynasty has once again made matters worse, because since Yuan Chonghuan was cut by a thousand knives, the Ming Dynasty has been able to defend the country and defend the border with Sun Chuanting, but now he is in prison again, Sun Chuanting can only sigh in the prison, the sky is going to destroy Cao!
However, Jun did not joke, the holy decree, Chongzhen did not save face, he had to choose another general, guarding Tongguan, this time, Chongzhen chose He Renlong, who had made the thief frightened, called "He Maniac", as the general soldier to help suppress the pass. However, even so, Emperor Chongzhen still couldn't sleep. Therefore, Wang Chengen, who is the most observant of words and feelings, in addition to finding Chen Yuanyuan and other beauties for Chongzhen, also deliberately sent brocade guards around Chongzhen's bedroom, and this time, Zhu Qing caught up.
When Zhu Qing arrived in Beijing, it happened to be evening. Killing Wind took Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and other three people to attack to meet Wang Chengen and Ghost Fire. As for Xuanwu, since Zhu Qing joined Jinyiwei, he has only heard of his name, and every time he asked, he was told that he was training in secret, and this time, it was no exception.
In just half a year, Qinglong and the other three have taken on a new look from the inside out, and it seems that Liu Qingfeng and Yan Shi Niang did not dare to slack off, and trained the two of Baihu and Vermilion Bird well. The flying fish robes of the three of them have changed from black to red, and tonight, they will turn golden yellow, because tonight they will walk by the emperor's side and defend the emperor's travel.
Seeing that the Great Killing Wind brought Zhu Qing and occupied the name of Qinglong, the head of the Four Saints, Wang Chengen was a little unhappy, because Zhu Qing had been disrespectful to him before.
"What? Lord Killing Wind brought him here? Wang Chengen said in a weird way.
"Gong Changchang. Zhu Qing is now the head of the Four Saints, Qinglong, please don't be as knowledgeable as Qinglong on the issue of the emperor's safety. Killing Wind bowed his head and said.
"Hmph, is the Sprinkle family the kind of person with a small belly? But the ugly words are ahead, don't say that the emperor has any errands, that is, they themselves have a bad trip, don't blame the Sprinkler family for not being emotional, their lives are all the emperor's, and the emperor has the final say if they want to die. "Wang Chengen is not an exaggeration, as a royal brocade guard, if he can't even save his own life, then what value is there?
"The factory boss is right, if that's the case, I have nothing to say. I've already brought the people, and if the factory boss has nothing to do, the killing wind will retire. Killing Wind said.
"Well, go ahead." Wang Chengen waved his hand seductively, letting the killing wind retreat.
Killing Feng hugged his fists, glanced at Zhu Qing, and then turned to leave, disappearing into the night.
"Hey, this killing wind, the good imperial guards don't do it, but they have to run around outside, but it's okay, with him running outside, the palace will be more obedient. You go and arrange for the three of them. When they are done, they will take them to the palace gate to wait, and tonight, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the emperor will go out of the palace for a night tour and enjoy with the people. Wang Chengen looked at the back of the killing wind and turned to the ghost fire beside him, although the ghost fire was the commander of the supreme commander of the Jinyi Guard, he did not dare to disobey the dispatch of Wang Chengen, the prince of the East Factory, saying that he was directly responsible for the Yellow Emperor, but in fact he was still under the monitoring of the East Factory.
Therefore, Ghost Fire had no choice but to bow down and say yes. Take Zhu Qing and the other three away.
Walking into the palace, Zhu Qing felt that it was a hundred times stronger than his previous trip to Beijing to visit the tourist attraction Bauhinia City, because this is a real imperial city, and it is a real coexistence of history and reality. It's a personal feeling, indescribable, but definitely not comparable to television or tourism. But as the imperial city deepened, Zhu Qing soon felt a sense of depression come to him, this depression came from the high city walls, from the lonely square, from the empty court, the dim lights, and the palace maids and eunuchs who walked as if they had lost their souls.
At this time, Zhu Qing remembered a person, Chen Yuanyuan. It's been half a year since I left, I don't know how Chen Yuanyuan is doing? Favored? Zhu Qing didn't feel good in his heart, after all, it was not a pleasure for the woman he liked to be pampered by another man. Disfavor? Zhu Qing didn't feel good in his heart, within such a deep wall, what a cruel and miserable thing it was for a king's woman to fall out of favor. The more Zhu Qing thought about it, the more he felt it, but in the past six months of training, he had learned a lot of things, including forbearance.
"Here, this is your future residence, Qinglong and White Tiger." Onihuo said.
"Here!" Zhu Qing and Xue Hu responded.
"The two of you live next to the emperor's bedroom, responsible for the emperor's food and daily safety, in order to hide people's eyes, you will go to the imperial dining room to do chores in the future. By the way, he is responsible for the emperor's food safety. Killing Wind pointed to a hut next to the emperor's bedroom.
"Yes!" Zhu Qing and Xue Hu glanced at each other and agreed with embarrassed faces. Because that room is really incongruous in this palace, it is very inconspicuous. However, since the commanders and envoys have spoken, how can Zhu Qing and Xue Hu have room for bargaining?
"Commander, what about me?" Suzaku asked.
Ghost Fire glanced at Suzaku, the first female head catcher in the capital at that time still had the same look, cold and arrogant. Ghost Fire smiled and said, "You're a woman, of course you're in charge of the security of the harem, do you see the room on the other side of the corridor?" That's the residence, and you will be responsible for the safety of the harem in the future. There are three thousand in the harem, and there is only one emperor in the emperor, so Suzaku can't take it lightly. ”
"Yes, sir." Suzaku replied sternly.
"Go, give you half a pillar of incense. Lord Ben is waiting at the palace gate, and if you don't get half a pillar of incense, you will get out of here! Killing Wind suddenly roared.
When Zhu Qing and the three of them heard this, they hurriedly packed up and went to their respective residences to pack up. The one where Zhu Qing and Xue Hu lived turned out to be a firewood room! Only simple two beds.
"Huh? No way? Zhu Qing exclaimed, and outside the house, Ghost Fire sneered and walked out with his back back.
"Forget it, maybe the commander is testing us, so let's clean it up." Xue Hu said, having already made the bed. Put things away.
"Hey, White Tiger, the commander asked us to protect the emperor, so if something happens to the harem, should we take care of it?" Zhu Qing asked Baihu, although half a year of training has worn out a lot of Zhu Qing's problems, but the ruffian nature is difficult to change.
"Let's talk about it then, let's go quickly, it's almost half a pillar of incense." White Tiger replied.
"Then let's go." Zhu Qing said that he was about to go out.
"Hey, what are you going to take with you when you go out this night? We're here to protect the emperor, do you think we're really going to play? The white tiger looked at a long box wrapped in black cloth on Zhu Qing's back and asked.
Zhu Qing smiled and said, "It's useful." Then the two went out. I didn't expect to come out just when I happened to meet Suzaku, but obviously Suzaku didn't look at the road and bumped into Zhu Qing.
"Please, Suzaku-sama, can you walk and see the road? If the two brocade guards collide and die together, they will definitely make headlines tomorrow. Zhu Qing touched his head and said.
"What did you say?" Suzaku gave Zhu Qing a bad look.
"Hey, okay, okay, don't say it, don't say it. By the way, what are you looking at? So obsessed? Zhu Qing looked in the direction where Suzaku was looking.
"Nothing, alone, so beautiful!" Suzaku couldn't help but sigh.
Zhu Qing looked at the back of the person walking in the corridor light, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, until the white tiger and the red bird pulled it, Zhu Qing walked away, that back really looked like Chen Yuanyuan!
