Chapter 32 Jia Lian is on duty leisurely, and Gui Qi shoots Shi Saburo
Although King Shui Rong of Beijing gave Jia Lianlong the errand of the forbidden lieutenant, in fact, he didn't know how to divide it in the palace.
Therefore, Jia Lian did not know that he had been assigned to a commander surnamed Su Lan until he handed over the documents in the form of a pen at the guard's office.
"The lowly Jia Lian has seen the Lord of the Commanders."
The one on duty in the guard office today is Su Lanlu Pavilion, the commander of the Zhengerpin Emperor's Battalion, and Jia Lian will work under him in the future.
Su Lanyuting took Jia Lian's paperwork, and asked while flipping through it: "Your surname is Jia, is it from Ningguofu or Rongguofu?" ”
Jia Lian bowed down and replied, "The humble position is from Rongguo Mansion. ”
"Hmm..."Su Lanluting nodded, didn't say anything more, called a pen sticker, collected Jia Lian's paperwork, and returned it to the file of the guard's office. Then Su Lanluting got up, took a waist card for Jia Lian to collect, and said:
"This waist card teaches you to be unimpeded in the Taihe Gate. The palace guards are divided into internal and external classes, and now the outer class Long Ban Lieutenant is just vacant, I will call a pen to lead you to Taihe Gate to find the chief guard Gui Qi, you will be on an errand with Gui Qi from today, but if you have any questions, just ask him. ”
Jia Lian bowed and said yes, took the waist card and left.
The dragon forbidden lieutenant is divided into three classes, the second class is called Huang Ce Lang, which is the fourth grade, the first class is called the middle lang general, and then the second class is called the Huang Ce Zhong Lang general, which is the third grade. Among the dragon forbidden lieutenants, most of them will be the captain of the guard in the future.
Not long after, Jia Lian walked to Taihe Gate and saw Gui Qi, the chief of the guard, who was indeed wearing a Zhonglang general's clothes.
Gui Qi is in his thirties, and he is really not small among the guards at such an age, with a rough appearance and thick calluses between his knuckles.
Gui Qi saw Jia Lian's clear eyebrows, his brows were furrowed at the moment, and he asked, "Can you know how to bow and arrow?" ”
Jia Lian followed Yang Zhi to learn the methods of officers who fought on the front line in the army, and he had played with arrows, so he replied at this moment: "Yes." ”
Bows, crossbows, swords, sticks, swords, guns, swords, halberds, Jia Lian got started very quickly, as if he had found back the ability of the Western Army in his previous life, and now he knows what weapon he has (100 million).
It's a pity that Gui Qi didn't try Jia Lian's idea, and only said: "It's best to be like this, we are martial arts after all, and the people who guard the court, if they have no power to restrain the chicken, it is better to leave as soon as possible." ”
After Gui Qi beat Jia Lian, he told the rules and regulations of the guards on the other duty. During the duty period, except for the emperor who had to accompany him when he traveled, the dragon forbidden lieutenant on Gui Qi's side only worked on the Taihe Gate side every day, mostly as a gatekeeper, and rarely walked around.
The dragon forbidden lieutenant is on duty for five days at a time, and after each duty is completed, he can have five days of rest. Because there are also three shifts of guards on duty, Jia Lian actually only needs to be on duty for three hours a day.
Doing such a light errand, you can receive a salary of one hundred and fifty-five taels of silver in a year, and I have heard that the royal family has rewards from time to time.
Jia Lian is very satisfied with this, he is not a person who can't abide by the rules in the army, not to mention that Taihemen is not in the army, as long as he doesn't run around in the imperial city, the rules of the guard are far more relaxed than those in the army.
Jia Lian reported such a leisurely attitude in Taihemen for two days, because he was inserted halfway, only two days later, Jia Lian followed the head of the guard Gui Qi and a group of colleagues to start bathing.
On this day, Jia Lian met Shi Guangzhu.
Jia Lian's day of rest also happened to be the day when Shi Guangzhu was on duty.
On this day, Shi Guangzhu entered the imperial city early, because it was not yet his time on duty, he was messing around on the school grounds.
There are schools in the inner and outer courts of the imperial city, the inner court is for the princes, and the outer court is used by a guard on weekdays, and the emperor occasionally takes the prince to watch the guards perform martial arts.
Jia Lian changed shifts, because he heard that Shi Guangzhu was coming, so he was not in a hurry to go back. In addition to what King Shui Rong of Beijing said, Jia Lian has more or less heard of Shi Guangzhu's reputation as a 'desperate San Lang' in the past few days, and the desire to explore in his heart has intensified.
Gui Qi, the head of the guard, came out after handing over an errand at the guard's office, and happened to see that Jia Lian hadn't left yet, so he asked him why.
When he heard that Jia Lian was going to find the stone light bead, Gui Qi immediately said:
"Oh... A Rongguo Mansion, a Xiguo Mansion, you should have a friendship, I have nothing to do, so I will also go and see it, he has a great reputation. ”
Gui Qi's words seemed to mean something, but the road belonged to the emperor's family, so Jia Lian naturally couldn't stop it, so he went to the imperial city school with Gui Qi.
After a short time, the two arrived at the school grounds, which was not small in scale, not much better than the square in front of the Jinluan Palace. The school yard is fully equipped with bows and crossbows, but because most of the places are not covered with floor tiles, it looks like a large open space.
At this time, except for the guards who were guarding the school grounds, Jia Lian took a cursory look at the past, and there were dozens of people here, most of them were Yu Linwei, and there were few Long Forbidden Lieutenants.
Shi Xiu was now mingling between a dry feather forest guard, and the same person was facing each other. Jia Lian saw it clearly from a distance, Shi Guangzhu only made three or two strokes, and with a false move, he overturned Yu Linwei on the opposite side and won the applause of the whole body.
"Hey, he's a showman, too."
With a smile on his face, Gui Qi took a bow and arrow from the place where he shot arrows on the side, and regardless of the dissuasion of Yu Linwei, who was in charge, he pulled out his knife and cut off the arrow.
After finishing it, Gui Qi set up a bow towards Shi Guangzhu and aimed at it, the calluses on his hands and the arrow feathers just fit, obviously from years of practicing arrows.
"Medium!"
A not-so-sharp sound of breaking the air sounded, and the arrow passed through the crowd and hit Shi Xiu's back shoulder pipa bone, causing him to shake a few steps.
After cutting off the arrow, the trajectory of the arrow after it was sent out also changed, which was difficult to predict, but Gui Qiqi could still hit the target in the crowd, and he didn't call it shooting Shi Guangzhu's head, so as not to hurt the vital acupuncture points.
With such archery skills, no wonder Gui Qi is so proud.
Over there, Shi Guangzhu turned around, and when he saw an arrow falling on the ground, he broke out in a cold sweat in his heart, and when he found that there was no arrow on it, he suddenly had a nameless anger that was being played with.
Looking at Gui Qi, who was still holding a bow, Shi Guangzhu picked up the headless arrow with one hand, strode angrily, threw the arrow in front of Gui Qi, and said loudly:
"Even if you are a lieutenant general, there is no reason to be able to shoot your colleagues with a bow and arrow! Could it be that when you see my lowly official position, you are unscrupulous? ”
What about General Zhonglang, he is not ranked among the dragon forbidden lieutenants, and he is not the captain of the guard of his class, where would Shi Guangzhu be afraid of Gui Qi.
Gui Qi saw that Shi Guangzhu was so hot, so he sneered, lowered his body and picked up the headless arrow, and said: "I have the intention to find you to learn, but I saw that you couldn't get out for a while, so I used this method to call you, and I hope it's not strange." ”
Shi Guangzhu saw that he lowered his posture, and the anger in his heart was reduced by a few points. At this time, Jia Lian on the side shouted impatiently: "Shi San, you still remember me." ”
When Shi Guangzhu heard this, he saw that there was a person wearing the clothes of a dragon forbidden lieutenant standing next to the archery general, he looked at the face carefully, Fang is happy, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Jia Lian, I didn't expect you to come here too, which one is under the name of the commander?" ”
Jia Lian said: "It is the commander of Su Lan Pavilion, and this is the head of the guard of my class, called Gui Qi." ”
"Oh!" Shi Guangzhu looked at Gui Qi's face and felt a burst of curiosity: "Is it the general Gui Qi who has won the emperor's boasting archery skills?" ”
The shadow of the famous tree of the person, hearing that the person in front of him is Gui Qi, Shi Guangzhu hurriedly and formally bowed his hand to Gui Qi and said: "My name is Shi Xiu, the expression word Guangzhu, I have long heard of Gui Qi Zhonglang's ability, now that Gui Qi Zhonglang is coming here, why don't you compare the last one?" ”
