When he returned to the room, he saw the javelin-like brocade guards standing next to him and the six-rank military attache uniforms on the table, the brocade guard tooth card, the embroidered spring knife with a shark skin sheath, the official body documents issued by the Nanbei Zhenfu Division and the order from Beijing, which made Ye Guan a little dizzy.

"All for me?" Ye Guan touched his head to see if he was dreaming or had a fever, as the saying goes: the prime minister's seven-rank official in front of the door, he is a six-rank Han general, or the kind of bodyguard who belongs to the periphery of Zhongnanhai's bodyguards, that is, the kind of ceremonial soldiers who are responsible for guarding, holding umbrellas, changing candles, and standing in a military posture, often see the face of the sky. No matter what, it's better than the porter. You must know that He Shen was born as a royal guard, and he used to be a man who opened an umbrella for the emperor and lit the lamp at night to change the candles in the palace, and finally became a scholar of Wenhua Palace.

Zheng Baihu grinned and smiled: "Lord Ye, these are all your official clothes and certificates, and you are now also a member of our Jinyi Guard." I heard from the thousands of households in our office, in order to encourage our martial artists to serve the country loyally, the Holy Son of Heaven specially gave your Excellency the flying fish suit that you can usually only get by officials of the second rank or above, which is a great honor! ”

After speaking, Zheng Baihu hurriedly led people to kneel on one knee and congratulated Ye Guan on his ascension in unison.

"That, aren't the brocade guards all hereditary? Besides, Huating's contribution to the anti-Japanese can be promoted to a Beijing official? Ye Guan was a little confused.

When Zheng Baihu heard this, tears almost fell: You ask me, I ask who to go, most of the Jinyiwei are hereditary, not many can be selected from the people, and those who can be officials are still inherited from their father's original position, I am the hereditary general banner of my father, and I have worked hard for more than 20 years to get the position of a hundred households. The brothers in the northwest are even more miserable, there are many people who die, there are not many people who can be promoted, even fewer people who can be promoted to Beijing officials, and it is even rarer to be promoted to the safe and majestic Han general who may see the Son of Heaven. When the time comes, he will be active in the Zhenfu Division, and he will not be a Han general in the future, and he will be released to the Jinyi Guard Thousand Households, at least it will be a Thousand Households. What a cool word!

But where did he dare to say this, and hurriedly said with a smile: "The lower officials don't know, it's just that they came by the starry night after the order of Zhang Qianhu of the Jinyi Wei Qianhu Office of Nanzhili, and the details of the situation are not too clear." I think it must be because Lord Ye can take credit for this at a young age, and the Holy Son of Heaven and Mu Shuai value it a lot, so it will not be dusty, so the people above have a discerning eye and a torch, and they will transfer adults to Beijing from thousands of miles away, hahaha...... "The more Zheng Baihu said, the more sad he felt, seeing that Ye Guan was close to a weak crown but ascended to the sky in one step, he had worked hard for thirty years but was still only a small hundred. Deng Shi felt that the way of heaven was unfair, and he didn't dare to show it in front of this young adult, so he had to cover up the past with laughter.

Although Zheng Baihu laughed with tears, he had to take out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his sleeve and hand it to Ye Guan: "When you first go to the capital, you will buy a house and land in the capital, and it will definitely cost you a lot to make colleagues. ”

Ye Guan saw that it was a hundred taels of silver tickets that were exchanged nationwide, and he dared to accept it, although his eyes were red, he had to return the money to Zheng Baihu.

One hundred taels of silver tickets, this is only in the sixteenth year of Hongzhi. It's not that after the Longqing switch, the world's silver has flowed to China, resulting in a state of cheap (copper) money. One hundred taels of silver is equivalent to the purchasing power of RMB, at least 60,000 yuan, or 60,000 yuan in the 1980s. You must know that if you only talk about the Ming Dynasty officials, the prefect of a state will be less than 200 stone meters a year, which is equivalent to only about 50 taels of silver, and this Zheng Baihu is 100 taels, which is too rich.

Zheng Baihu saw that Ye Guan didn't accept it, so he had to persuade him: "My lord, you don't have to mind, this is the thousands of households of our entire Thousand Households and the brothers below who made it together, and the entry of the adults into the Ouchi is also to add glory to the face of the Jinyi Guard of our Nanzhili Thousand Households, plus the Taoism in the officialdom, this hundred taels is still taken out." This is also the rule of officialdom, and I hope that adults can accept it with peace of mind, rich men are difficult, and rich men are difficult. If you go to the capital, you will be shy and become the Yang Zhi who bought the knife, and you will not be able to get over the face of the adult, and the people of our Qianhu Institute will also be scolded by our colleagues for being stingy and stingy. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Ye Guan to excuse himself, he stuffed the silver ticket into Ye Guan's hand, and then said: "I hope that Lord Ye will soar in the future, don't forget the old brothers in our Nanzhili Thousand Households." In the future, when someone in our office is transferred to Beijing or returns to Beijing to report on his work, I hope that Lord Ye will entertain him more, and don't let other people in the Qianhu Institute laugh at the people of our Nanzhili Qianhu Office for not being united. ”

Ye Guan can now be regarded as hearing their voices, as soon as he was transferred to Beijing at a young age, maybe he will soar in the future, and sending charcoal in the snow is far better than icing on the cake, which is an unbreakable truth for thousands of years. In addition, there must be five thousand households in Jinyiwei, and they are fighting openly and secretly for promotion, if they lose face because of money, they will also make the Tongzhi and Zhenfu above look down on them, and lose the way to advance.

"Then I will be disrespectful, and in the future, I will be familiar with the old people of our thousand households. Master Zheng, I don't know when I will enter Beijing? Ye Guan saw that everyone had said this, so he accepted the silver ticket.

Zheng Baihu was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Lord Ye, the humble position is just ordered to come and inform the adults of the matter, and the specific time of the humble position is not very clear. Oh, by the way, there are two lieutenants of Jinyiwei who escorted adults to Beijing, one is a person from Jinyiwei, who was sent by Fusi in Beizhen, and the other is a colleague who was transferred to Dongchang from our Jinyiwei. The two of them will escort you to the capital. They probably know better. ”

The people of the East Factory? What's going on at the Kanto plant? Ye Guan was also stunned when he heard that there were still people from the East Factory. This is good, the famous spy agency of the Ming Dynasty, I have seen it all over today, and I am short of the short-lived West Factory.

Escorted by everyone, Ye Guan came to the post station and met the captain and officer who escorted them to Beijing, two young people who looked quite capable. Not only Jinyiwei, but even the officer of Dongcang did not look like a feminine eunuch as Ye Guan imagined.

After the two learned that this was Lord Ye who they needed to escort, they hurriedly bent down and knelt down on one knee: "Humble Zhang Ling, Liu Fan has seen Lord Ye." ”

Ye Guan hurriedly helped them up, and after asking them carefully, he learned that the appointment required Ye Guan to leave on the same day. And told Ye Guan that the saint gave Ye Guan a flying fish suit and Long En, who was on duty in a unicorn suit, which was a treatment that ordinary Han generals did not have, which made Ye Guan surprised and delighted, and also made the envious saliva of those old brocade guards come down.

After Ye Guan returned home, while packing his luggage, he was thinking about the previous scene, and now he is also the facial features of the sixth grade, and he is still a Beijing official. A sense of dazed joy arose. I'm about to go to the capital, and I'm going to jump from this small pond in Huating County into another capital as deep as the sea.

Could this be a new starting point for him? In this prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty, a person who knows before and after can walk out of a different path?
