Night guard, no desire.

The office of the head of the guard was replaced with a new plaque.

The gray-haired King quietly ate a table full of dishes.

Dozens of dishes on the table are divided into categories, and a quarter is pure meat dishes, such as stewed elbows, stewed chicken, roasted fish, etc.

The quarter is steamed buns, steamed buns, rice, noodles, and so on.

A quarter is a vegetarian dish with a little meat, boiled lettuce, cold cabbage heart, pork stewed sauerkraut, etc.

The remaining quarter is some snacks, preserves, nuts, pastries.

The king ate methodically, and next to the large table, a small table was set up.

At the small table, a middle-aged man in a red python robe ate four dishes and one soup on the table.

On one side is the hands flying, and on the other side is the light tapping of the chopstick.

On one side is to feast, and on the other side is to chew slowly.

The king finished eating first, and with a wave of his hand, the two guards came out.

One holds a pot of fruit, and the other holds a plate of fruit, which are placed on the table for two.

The king ate first and waited quietly.

The eunuch continued to chew slowly, and after eating, he pinched a few more grapes, and chewed them carefully, even chewing the grape seeds, and swallowed them all.

The little eunuch next to him handed the jade cup mouthwash first, and then put a copper basin and a new white towel on the back.

Cheng Baihan simply rinsed and scrubbed, threw down the towel, and looked at King Wang with a smile.

"I heard that the Captain of the Guard has a bad appetite lately?"

The king sighed and said, "The main thing is that I am poor, and now I only eat five meals a day." Full of wine and food, Lord Duke, despite your orders, the lower officials will go all out. ”

Cheng Baihan, the new governor of the inner factory, smiled: "Since the guard envoy is so direct, then our family will get straight to the point." The saint said that the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce can make money, but people can't continue to collect it. ”

The king said: "You mean, the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce subsidizes the cultivation of outstanding children?" ”

"Not bad."

"Well, in fact, when you gave the order a few days ago, our night guard also checked it. Nothing was illegal, and we even found an excuse to close the store, but someone immediately handed over the note, so we had to give up. It's not that the night guards don't make a difference, it's that the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce is no longer something that our little night guards can say. In the past few years, the night guard has been worse than a year, and I see, it won't be long before I, the guard, will return to my hometown. The king sighed.

"Lord Guard, the person who can sit in your seat must be the emperor's most trusted person." Cheng Baihan smiled.

"Yes, I just know that the Holy One trusts the lower officials very much, and the lower officials are sincerely afraid and go all out. Can...... The Wanhe Chamber of Commerce also makes money for the emperor and hundreds of officials, and we night guards really can't do anything. In my opinion, it is better to let the local governments do it. "The king's way.

Cheng Baihan said: "Let's talk to you, now those Wen Xiu are eating inside and out, not thinking about sharing worries for the saints, but disturbing the world for the sake of the battle of will." Except for a few places, our internal factories can no longer command the state capitals in various places. ”

The guard envoy glanced at Cheng Baihan, who had thin eyebrows and white face, this governor was very different from the previous one, and he spoke and acted more directly.

"I have also heard some rumors, the state capitals only recognize the imperial decree and cabinet documents, and say some unacceptable things to the inner factory and the night guard. But why are you obsessed with this little thing? The king asked.

Cheng Baihan stared at the king and said slowly: "The idle king spreads the gong and broadcasts the world, we can't do anything." However, the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce not only gave lectures for free, held various cultivation gatherings, and even sponsored gifted cultivators for free. In the long run, the world only knows the idle king, but not the emperor. ”

The king shook his head and said: "Cheng Dugong's words are wrong, this world is the emperor's world, my people are all bathed in the emperor's grace, and they all have a scale in their hearts, how can they not know the emperor?" ”

Cheng Baihan said: "The emperor is dedicated to the world and the overall situation, but some people, the small abacus in their hearts crackles, and the scale in their hearts is often crooked. Wanhe Chamber of Commerce has been like this for a long time, the king is not a king, the minister is not a minister, and the country is not a country. ”

Wang Zhengse said: "What Cheng Dugong said is extremely true! If this goes on for a long time, the scale in the hearts of the people will always be like this, and it will indeed be a country. Your Excellency, give the order, what do you say, what do we night guards do. ”

Cheng Baihan said expressionlessly: "The inner factory is the inner factory, and the night guard is the night guard, this matter should be solved by your night guard." ”

The king couldn't cry and laughed, and said, "Lord Duke, are you still a night guard more than ten years ago?" The current night guard is a large officer, my father doesn't love my mother, we really want to arrest people indiscriminately, the first state capitals in various places do not agree, and the strong people in various places are afraid that they will smash the mess of the night guards. ”

"Lord Guard, the night guard won't be able to do even a little thing, right?"

Wang said: "Do you mean that the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce is a trivial matter, or that the Xianwang Army is a trivial matter?" ”

Cheng Baihan stared at the king for a long time before he said, "Tell me, since the holy order is like this, what should you night guards do?" ”

Wang Zhengse said: "In this matter, Xia Guan actually thinks a lot. One is to maintain the status quo, it is true that nothing can be done, and the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce does not violate the law of the country, why should we take people from the night guards? As for the second possibility, it is to restore the night guard to the past, otherwise, it will be difficult for the Qiao woman to cook without rice. Lord Duke, you can't just let the night guards charge into battle without giving them enough to eat. ”

"Lord Guard, since it is the emperor's order, it must be done."

"Xiaguan has been working hard." Instigating the king's way.

Cheng Baihan was silent.

He was like a mirror in his heart, and he couldn't blame the king for this.

In recent years, the night guard has been dismantled in a mess, and the scale is less than one-tenth of its heyday.

Many yamen of the night guards have been cut one after another, and now only the Wind Exploration Division and the Patrol Division are left to barely support the façade.

After Lu Hanzhan died, most of the people from the Patrol Division were also transferred to the border of Yanzhou and stationed at Tianmen Pass.

Tianmen Pass is the only way for Yanzhou to reach the divine capital.

To be precise, it is the only way for Xianwang City to reach the Divine Capital.

At this moment, in the south of Tianmen Pass, there are more than 500,000 soldiers, and they are still increasing.

Not to mention the preparation for war, just the coordination of the various armies and the logistics and military resources have made the major mountains of the imperial court break their heads and bleed, and the roof of the Jinluan Hall alone has been overturned nineteen times in the past three months.

The current situation of the imperial court is familiar to many old people.

When the demon clan entered the customs and the kings seized the heirs, similar things happened.

Why do the state capitals dare to be so presumptuous, it is because the elites of various places have been emptied and are heading to Tianmen Pass.

Now it's half a million, and next, most likely, a million, two million, or even three million.

Cheng Baihan sighed lightly and said, "Our family also knows the suffering of the guards, so our family doesn't take a stand at all." However, our inner factory and night guards can't watch Li Qingxian eat fat so quickly, but they are indifferent. ”

"We're always moving." Instigating the king's way.
