Chapter 117: Origin
In addition to being the personal guard who secretly hides by the lord's side, the shadow guard is sometimes used as a stand-in for the lord.
When necessary, give your life to protect the Lord's well-being.
But arranging for the shadow guard to be by your side is something that everyone will never mention on the surface, so that everyone knows it very well in their hearts, but they still have to pretend that there is no shadow guard.
At the age of twelve, Ye Linghuang saw a record of the shadow guard in an ancient book, and the shadow guard sacrificed himself to serve the master, but it was not recorded by the official history.
Xizhou, the border of Jiuqu, has been fighting all year round, and the people are not making a living, and the shadow guard is from there.
At that time, the atmosphere of power struggle between the princes and princes became more and more intense, and the harem concubines were all intriguing and deceitful for their children to successfully ascend to the throne.
At that time, Ye Linghuang understood that even if he didn't have the ambition to be the emperor, he would inevitably become a stumbling block and a thorn in the side of others, and assassinations would occur frequently.
In order to protect himself, in addition to practicing martial arts himself, he must also find a shadow guard to protect himself.
But the prince can't leave the palace without permission before he has a self-established mansion, and he can only wait in the palace with fear, but fortunately, the mother concubine was favored in the palace at that time, and Emperor Wu also loved the two brothers, so he could give them some shelter.
After reaching the age of sixteen, although Ye Linghuang did not get married, because of his independent personality and leadership ability, Emperor Wu also agreed to let him leave the palace and set up his own mansion.
A year later, Ye Linghuang secretly recruited shadow guards into the house, Jin Yuhe, Xuefeng, and Gao Zhuo were the first to follow Ye Linghuang's group of shadow guards, and then three more shadow guards were recruited, but they all lost their lives because of the secret assassination incident, and the protector rescued the driver.
He Bi and Guangqi are the most junior shadow guards among them, and they have been by Ye Linghuang's side for three years, but they are also loyal and reused.
These shadow guards were all recruited by Ye Linghuang from an old Taoist named Zhao Lingzi.
Zhao Lingzi is from Xizhou, and when Ye Linghuang led the troops to fight in Xizhou, he sacrificed the old Taoist who met by chance on Zhongqu Mountain.
That time, there was nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get them. The Taoist temple on Zhongqu Mountain hides this group of people who have been forgotten by history.
Because Ying Wei made a poisonous oath of allegiance to the lord, plus he had no worries, and he didn't know anything about the world, there was only the lord in his eyes, Ye Linghuang never doubted them anything, this time Yu Feng suddenly asked about Jin Yuhe's life experience, but it also gave him a wake-up call.
Yu Feng would never ask about this in vain.
Jin Yuhe knew that if he reported this matter, it would definitely arouse Ye Linghuang's suspicions, but he had a clear conscience, so he reported it all truthfully.
Seeing that Ye Linghuang fell into deep thought, Jin Yuhe added, "Lord Wang, the life experience of his subordinates doesn't even know himself, since he has a memory, he has stayed in the Taoist temple on Zhongqu Mountain, even if the background of his subordinates is abnormal, it does not mean that his subordinates have two hearts for the prince. Loyalty, heaven and earth can be learned. ”
Ye Linghuang nodded, Jin Yuhe had been by his side for decades, and he had blocked countless swords for himself, even at the moment of life crisis, if he had a different heart, he could still lie dormant for so long, he really admired.
At this time, the voice of the girl from Canglan came from outside the room, "Spring Breeze, why are you waiting outside today?" The prince doesn't want you anymore? ”
