"Ah————h This is the sound of Ye Guan falling into the water.

Fifty or sixty meters of cliffs, if a person who has not been trained to dive jumps, it is no different from smashing on the ground. When Ye Guan jumped, he tried to enter the water in a straight line as much as possible to reduce the pressure on the water surface.

However, when I entered the water, it still hurt, like the feeling of falling from a wall of twenty or thirty meters when I was a child. Ye Guan felt that the bones in his body were beaten, and then there was the unique river water of autumn that was warm and cold at first, this river water was not too cold to say cold, and it was not warm to say warm, and it must not be soaked more. However, he didn't dare to climb to the shore, for fear that he would run into bandits with "summoning skills" on his back, so he could only let the current carry him for an unknown amount of time, until he felt safe, Ye Guan was afraid to go ashore.

"Damn, my silver ticket!" This was the first sentence Ye Guan said after drifting along the river to the shore, enduring the pain.

Almost all the expenses along the way were paid by Ye Guan, so he exchanged the silver ticket of one hundred taels for a fifty taels and some scattered silver. After such a long time of soaking and washing, the notes on it have all been spent, and this silver ticket is considered invalid.

With only more than ten taels of silver and official certificates, Ye Guan ran to the nearest farmer's house in the fastest time, under the pretext that he was a person who went to Beijing to catch the exam, and accidentally fell into the water, and after gaining the trust of the farmer, he used more than ten yuan to buy an old dress and change his wet clothes, and used two yuan to make this aunt boil a big bowl of ginger soup, and after drinking it hot, Ye Guan felt the chill gradually fade from his body.

This is in the Ming Dynasty, where people could die from a cold, and they finally escaped death but finally died of a cold, it is estimated that God will not let Ye Guan go.

Ye Guan asked again if there was anything strange just now. The owner of the farmhouse only said that he saw a small hill dozens of miles away from a distance, and there seemed to be a fire, and there was nothing strange about it. Ye Guan secretly thought to himself, it seems that those bandits either didn't know that he had jumped into the river, or they didn't dare to search in the provincial borders, anyway, they were safe for the time being.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Guan also stayed here for one night. As soon as the next morning arrived, Ye Guan, who had rested, hurriedly left here and walked in the direction of Beijing City.

Ye Guan changed into a patched cloth coat, and cautiously came to the hundred households in the county town that he had agreed with them, and he didn't see the shadows of the two of them for a long time.

"This is already the boundary of Beizhili, not far from the capital. Zhang Ling They have not appeared, they may be caught, or they may be recuperating somewhere, I can't wait forever, no one knows if the power of those smugglers has infiltrated the government here. I don't want to do it again, I'm not a cat, I don't have nine lives. Ye Guan waited for a long time and didn't see the two of them, so he decided to go first, Zhang Ling and they couldn't find themselves, and they would go to Beijing City.

In the county seat, the early tooth man (intermediary) bought a horse and drove along the official road to the capital. Now he has learned to be obedient, he doesn't stay in big towns, he doesn't eat in big hotels, he only eats dry food. Every time, I greeted the inn or passers-by, arranged a precise time to go on the road, and made sure that I did not spend the night in the wild after sunset.

I hurried and hurried, and finally arrived in Beijing at the beginning of November.

Looking at the crowds coming and going inside and outside the city gate and the officers and soldiers guarding the city, Ye Guan finally took a breath after running around for so many days.

At the gate of the city, he showed his brocade guard waist card, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city put Ye Guan into the city.

Although the entire city of Beijing is full of people, Ye Guan always feels that the capital is very flat. Except for those restaurants and princely mansions, almost all the houses do not exceed more than ten meters. Whoever let the capital have a rule that no one's house can exceed the Forbidden City.

"I must be afraid that someone will build the house too high to peek at the emperor's wives taking a bath." Ye Guan thought maliciously.

Walking along the street, I finally came to the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division next to West Chang'an Street.

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree. Looking at the empty street, Ye Guan estimated that even Zuojiazhuang was not as quiet as the Zuojiazhuang Human Field.

After showing his official credentials, Ye Guan was finally received by the envoy of Jinyi Weizhen.

Ye Guan was taken into the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division, and as soon as he entered the door, he could see a blue brick shadow wall, and after the shadow wall, Ye Guan saw the whole picture of this courtyard. I didn't expect the notorious Jinyi Wei Yamen to be such a secluded and elegant place. There are also planted flowers and plants on both sides, and towering trees. If it weren't for someone guarding the door with an embroidered spring knife, it would be like the mansion of a wealthy family.

After entering a hall, Ye Guan finally saw the envoy of the pacification, who was about forty years old, with three strands of beard, wearing a scarlet official uniform and a black veil on his head. He was sitting on the Taishi chair and looking at Ye Guan with a smile.

"Xiaguan Yeguan, I have seen Lord Lin Zhen's envoy." Ye Guan knew from the leading officers and soldiers just now that this envoy was surnamed Lin and was known as Yao, so after seeing this envoy, he knelt on one knee and gave a military salute.

"No need to be polite, just sit down and talk." Lin Yao had already learned from Mu Bin's mouth that today's saint values this young and promising Han general, and specially rewards him for wearing flying fish suits and unicorn suits on duty.

"Lord Lin, Xia Guan encountered such a thing when he was in Tai'an Mansion...... Ye Guan told him about his encounter with Zhen Neng, a hundred households of Jinyi Wei, who colluded with the local government and garrison to shield illicit salt dealers and sell illicit salt, and after the incident, he intended to kill him.

"Zhen Neng...... It's his people. After listening to this, Lord Lin said Zhen Neng's name, and then stood up from the Taishi chair, and after pacing in the room for a while, he looked at Ye Guan who was sitting under him with his beard, and did not speak for a long time, but Lin Yao did not wrinkle deeply, showing that he was not in a very good mood.

Ye saw Lin Yao's attitude, and his heart was cold. Who is this Zhen Neng, but a mere 100 households in brocade clothes stationed in the state capital, a case of collusion between the government and the government actually makes it so difficult for the dignified person who is in charge of such an investigation and review of things to be calmed down by the Jinyi Wei of the fourth grade, how much power is there behind him?

Lin Yao looked quite embarrassed, and it wasn't until Ye Guan drank all the tea in the teacup that he made up his mind, and while there was no one around, he lowered his head and said to Ye Guan: "This Zhen can't move, don't make a noise about his affairs, he is Shou Ninghou's person!" The water inside is deep. It's not something that you can do with a six-rank Han general. ”

Shou Ning Hou! Ye Guan was also taken aback after hearing this, Zhang Heling, Marquis of Shouning, is the brother-in-law of Emperor Hongzhi and the uncle of Zhu Houzhao! The standard crony courtier in history. Relying on the relationship between Empress Zhang and Empress Zhang in Emperor Hongzhi's harem, he firmly sat on the top spot of his lawless relatives!

The two brothers Jianchang Hou and Shou Ninghou relied on their identity as the queen's elder brothers, and they were unscrupulous, and even entered the harem without rules. A eunuch named He Heng rebuked Zhang Heling and reported him to the emperor for his transgression and lawlessness. This old boy actually told his sister Empress Zhang, and then Empress Zhang actually asked Hongzhi to send someone to beat this eunuch who had military merits and was upright to death. From this, we can see what kind of character Zhang Heling is.

And that Zhen Neng is actually Zhang Helin's person, so he must be untouchable. Ye Guan hurriedly bent down and hugged his fists, this time he thought carefully about the fist salute was indeed after pressing left and right, he hugged his fists and said, "Xiaguan thank Lord Lin for mentioning something!" ”

"Nothing to do, it's our old man's business to call on new colleagues and juniors, I think Lord Ye is young but can be seen by His Majesty, as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, he will definitely soar in the future." It's good to have a good relationship this morning, haha. Lin Yao saw Ye Guan hurriedly thanking him, and knew that he was not wrong with this on-demand, although Ye Guan was not very old, but he advanced and retreated appropriately, and he mentioned a little more, and he may not be able to become Ji Gang and Mu Bin in the future. While being happy in his heart, he pulled Ye Guan to introduce the duties of the Jinyi Guard and the importance of guarding the Forbidden Palace.

"Our Jinyiwei is responsible for monitoring the criminal investigation, civil and military officials, relatives of the vassal kings, Shilin Qingliu, and the people are very rich. Different from the three divisions of the Criminal Department, the Inspector and the Dali Temple, we don't have to borrow the prison and personnel of the Criminal Department, and we don't have to inform the cabinet and the six books, so we have fewer constraints, faster processing, more effective, and greater rights. And the Han generals in the forbidden army that Ye Xian's nephew is about to be on duty are also the people of our Jinyi Guard, who are responsible for the great etiquette and duty of His Majesty the Emperor. The official asks you, what is the most important point as Your Majesty's pro-army? Lin Yao put his hands behind his back and stared at Ye Guan with his eyes, waiting for his return.

"Faithful." Ye Guan blurted out without thinking.

"The children can be taught." When Lin Yao heard Ye Guan say this, he nodded slightly, looking very happy.

"Our Jinyiwei is still very powerful because it is independent of the six departments of the imperial court, and it depends on the trust of His Majesty. In the Jinyi Guard in the capital, ability is not very important, and backing is not very important, what is important is loyalty to His Majesty. As long as you feel your majesty's thoughts, then you have to raise your head and stand tall in front of you in front of the sword mountain and sea of fire, and your majesty says that you can't take a step forward, even if the front is a gentle township, the gold and silver caves must be regarded as fierce beasts and poisonous snakes. Looking at our commanders in the past dynasties, there are those with outstanding ability, and there are also those with mediocrity, and those with outstanding ability start and finish well. Why? Your Majesty values loyalty more than ability. Therefore, you must keep this in mind when you are on duty in front of the emperor in the future! Lin Yao looked at Ye Guan like this. I also saved the idea of adding a little more.
