Volume 2 Kyoto Fengyun Chapter 342 Cen Shang's doubts
Speaking of this, Hong Gonggong waved his hand.
"Your Highness thinks too much, what you said is the Beijing Army, not the Forbidden Army."
"Oh? What's the difference between the two? ”
Huang Zhang's look was puzzled, especially his posture, which was like a student apprentice, which made Gonggong Hong feel a sense of pride in his heart.
Anyway, this is not a secret news in Beijing, so he said it without scruples.
"This Beijing army, is the kind His Highness said, as long as the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital want to be promoted, they will be stuffed into the Beijing army, no matter what the quality is, some of them are indeed capable, but many of them are also typical of the kind of chaotic life."
After speaking, Gonggong Hong glanced at the forbidden soldiers in the distance, for fear of being heard by these people.
"But this forbidden army is different, the forbidden army is specially used to protect the safety of the imperial city, this selection is much stricter, only look at ability, not relationship, and those nobles in the capital do not dare to break into the forbidden army, in case of risk, it will be killed!"
"Oh." Huang Zhang nodded as if he didn't understand, "What about the background of this Cen Shangjia?" ”
"Captain Cen is an alternative, he was not a soldier originally, I heard that once His Majesty went out to enjoy the game and was assassinated by some anti-thieves, it was this Captain Cen who rescued His Majesty, at that time His Majesty promised him a request, and he himself took the initiative to request to enter the forbidden army!"
"Huh? So outrageous? ”
When Huang Zhang heard this, he suddenly felt interesting, after saving the emperor, he did not ask for a reward, but wanted to enter the forbidden army, which was really suspicious.
"Yes, His Majesty also felt a little weird at the time, but later he sent someone to investigate the captain's background, and found no problem, he was a commoner, and his family was only an old farmer with a few acres of land, and his ancestors could check it for three generations."
"Your Majesty felt that there was no problem, so he recruited this captain Cen into the forbidden army and made him the captain of the forbidden army."
Gonggong Hong was relieved after saying Huang Zhang, since the imperial court had carefully checked Cen Shang's background, naturally there would be no problem.
After all, it is to enter the forbidden army, not the vegetable market, it is the closest place to the emperor, and it is a post to protect the emperor's safety day and night, and problems will never be allowed.
Didn't the many usurpations in history start with the forbidden army? Taking down the forbidden army means that the emperor's life is in your hands.
After Huang Zhang learned Cen Shang's identity, he nodded, yawned, and went back to his tent to rest.
Huang Zhang is not stupid, he hooked up with the commander of the forbidden army in front of Gonggong Hong, not to mention that the Gonggong Hong Guild would not tell the whistle, and when it was discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After all, what the emperor is most afraid of is that the person who has the ability to succeed to the throne has his life in hand, doesn't that mean that minutes can replace him.
The next day, the speed of the forbidden army was not slow at all, and the horses of the imperial court were marching all the way, and by the afternoon, they had already arrived at Tianjiabao.
When he arrived at Tianjiabao, Huang Zhang felt like he had gone home.
However, now in Tianjiabao, there are only some local farmers, and Bian Huan has already moved to the Violent Tiger Xiongguan.
After resting in Tianjiabao for one night, Huang Zhang finally had the opportunity to communicate with the captain Cen Shang.
As soon as Huang Zhang and his party arrived in Tianjiabao, the people here heard that the convoy of the eldest prince was coming, and they all ate pot pulp, and surrounded Huang Zhang's convoy to death, so frightened that Cen Shang thought that someone was going to be unfavorable to the eldest prince.
It wasn't until he saw the food that the people had brought him that he reacted.
This made Cen Shang not surprised, he remembered that when he and the others came, these people were not so enthusiastic, why did these people react so much as soon as they hung the banner of the eldest prince?
In the middle of the night, there were people who worked tirelessly to send special food to Huang Zhang from far away.
It made Cen Shang's Praetorian Guards not even have time to rest, and Cen Shang's eyes were even more sour when he saw it.
But they can't help it, they have to check every item to make sure that no one wants to harm the Great Prince.
"What? Surprised? ”
Just as Cen Shang was carefully screening the items, Huang Zhang's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
When Cen heard this, he immediately saluted Huang Zhang.
"The last general will meet His Royal Highness the Great Prince."
Huang Zhang nodded, "Get up." I don't need to sift these things, they are all sent by the people nearby, and they won't harm me. ”
"This is the duty of the general, not even a single centimeter of the item."
In this regard, Huang Zhang didn't say much, since they love to do useless work, then do it well.
"Aren't you curious, why are these people so enthusiastic when they get here?" Huang Zhang asked to himself.
Cen Shang didn't speak, just stood quietly aside.
As the commander of the forbidden army, the princes can chat with them, but if they dare to chat with these princes, even if it is a sentence, maybe there will be problems, of course, in fact, it is not so terrifying, but Cen Shang has nothing else, just a little, abide by the rules, one is one, two is two, and never exceeds the rules.
Huang Zhang didn't care about him, and said to himself: "I think that at the beginning, I just took office in Wucheng, and as soon as I arrived in Xiaocangshan, I was robbed by a group of mountain bandits halfway, and there was a whole convoy, and no one was left. ”
Hearing Huang Zhang's words, Cen Shang replied: "Please inform Your Highness of the stronghold of this group of bandits, I will destroy this group of mountain bandits for you!" ”
Huang Zhang smiled, "That's not necessary, later this group of mountain bandits became my subordinates." ”
"Huh!"
As soon as these words came out, Cen Shang didn't know what to say.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that the eldest prince in front of him still had such ability?
Cen Shang is also a forbidden army in the capital, and he still has heard of these princes, if this is the deeds of the second prince, he believes it, but if the big prince in front of him subdues a group of vicious mountain bandits, this is a bit nonsense.
After all, the reputation of the eldest prince in front of him in the capital is not so good.
Others privately call him the prince of alchemy, a demonic person, anyway, they don't treat this big prince as a normal person.
Even if he came all the way and heard that it was the eldest prince who led the troops to repel the invasion of the Southern Barbarians, but in Cen Shang's opinion, this is nothing more than the gilded means of these princes, and I am afraid that there are other people who repel the barbarian army, such as the special elite troops of the Su State who have been stationed in Sunan - the Thousand Teeth Army!
So for Huang Zhang's words just now, Cen Shang didn't take it seriously at all, just that the eldest prince escaped by luck.
At this moment, Huang Zhang naturally didn't know what Cen Shang was thinking, and then said: "After taking down the bandits, I didn't expect that the landlords of Tianjiabao didn't open their eyes and wanted to do something with me, so I easily led the troops to destroy them, and then conveniently distributed the land of the landlords of the Tianjia family to the people of Tianjiabao." All these things you see now are the praise of the people who have divided the land. ”
“……”
"Your Highness is really heroic, and the last general will admire it."
Cen Shang's tone didn't change when he said this, and the flat tone was like answering a question mechanically, and it was fake at a glance.
