Chapter 74: Go Home and Have a Look
They looked at each other in shock, and if it weren't for the fact that all four of them were there, they would have wondered if their ears were hallucinating.
The eldest princess is high, and she only has a colt in her eyes, who really cares about the day of these inconspicuous guards?
The four of them were flattered, and even Ruda, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but swallow nervously.
Seeing the expressions of the four people, Qin Shuhuang knew that they hadn't reacted for a while, so he beckoned to Ruihe behind him, "The armor on your body is old, you can take these armor down and distribute it to your subordinates, everyone has it." In the future, in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, as long as it is the personal guard around the palace, there will be a set of armor a year, and the four seasons will be uniform. And these are two hundred and fifty taels of silver, of which ten taels shall be divided equally among the four of you, and the rest shall be divided evenly, and these days shall be an additional reward for your hard work. If there are guards who want to go home and have a look, you will take turns to arrange shifts for them, as long as it doesn't interfere with the usual guard work. ”
Qin Shuhuang went straight to the point and told them everything.
The four of them seemed to have been hit by a big pie, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Or Ruda reacted the fastest, and said incoherently: "Your Highness won't punish us?" Your Highness, I want to join the army! Start as a small soldier, kill the enemy to earn military merits, and become a general ...... "military ......" Not......
Zhai Jin didn't expect this brother to be so impulsive, before Luda finished speaking, he was covered by Zhai Jin's mouth, and Zhai Jin explained to Qin Shuhuang embarrassedly, "Your Highness, this kid is a tendon, what do you say." You can rest assured, this year, we will definitely do our best to guard the Eldest Princess's Mansion and protect Her Highness! ”
A smile appeared at the corner of Qin Shuhuang's mouth, "Okay, it's okay, it's a good thing to have ideas, don't worry, you can use this year to think about it, whether you leave or stay, this palace will not treat you badly." ”
The four of them stood in a row and saluted Qin Shuhuang in unison.
This is the first sincere salute in recent years.
At this moment, they really had a sense of belonging and identity in the Eldest Princess's Mansion Guards.
After thanking him, Luda Zhai Jin and the others called the brothers to come in and move the new armor.
Shilan was helping on the side, He Yutian saw that Shilan was struggling to move, so he hurriedly went over and took over the armor, blushing and whispering, "We men can move these coarse objects, and the girl can rest on the side." ”
After the heavy armor in Shilan's arms was taken over, she looked at He Yutian with a pair of big eyes and a wink.
I hadn't paid much attention to He Yutian before, but I suddenly saw how this kid seemed to have grown a lot taller, and his face became more angular, and he looked like a young man.
He Yutian's face was even redder when he was seen, and after a while, his neck turned red.
Ruihe, who was passing by next to him, laughed and said: "Captain He was only fifteen years old when he was rewarded by the emperor to be the captain of the guard, and three years have passed, and he has more than one head, and now he is taller than Captain Lu, and it is normal for you to not recognize it all of a sudden." ”
Shilan stuck out her tongue, "No wonder I don't know anything that has changed." ”
Qin Shuhuang's eldest maid, Ruihe Ruimiao, is the same age as Qin Shuhuang, one in twenty, and Shilan Shiyu is two years younger, nineteen this year.
is one year older than He Yutian.
He Yutian was a little shorter than Shilan when he was just on an errand beside Qin Shuhuang, and now he is more than a head taller than Shilan, and he has grown from a young boy to a tall and sturdy young man.
Qin Shuhuang did not stop the contact between the big maids and the captain of the guard.
Once again, she hopes that the maids around her can have their own lives.
Not far away, Xuan Cang looked at what Qin Shuhuang did in the flower hall.
The heat in his eyes became more intense, and his princess grew up, did things more thoughtfully, and became more attractive to him.
Xuan Cang felt that he was a moth that pounced on the fire at this moment, knowing that it would be wiped out if he pounced on the fire, but he couldn't help it.
Back in the courtyard where the guards lived, Lu Da Zhai Jin and the other four guards sent the armor and silver money rewarded by Qin Shuhuang.
The guard camp was immediately overjoyed.
And because Qin Shuhuang gave him a vacation to go home to visit relatives, Luda, who missed his wife and children, was the first to ask for leave to go home to visit his wife and children.
He deliberately changed his newly issued soft armor, and carried the silver he received for four taels and five coins in his arms and left the eldest princess's mansion.
Ruda and his wife were childhood sweethearts, and his wife followed him at the age of fifteen.
Both of them are fatherless and motherless people, and Luda simply took his wife to Beijing to wander around.
After entering Beijing, he met Zhai Jin, and then stepped into the palace as a personal guard.
It's just that he entered the palace as a guard, and his wife could only live alone outside the palace.
For the safety of his wife, Ruda let his wife stay in a fellow villager's house.
Who would have thought that this fellow villager had a ghost in his heart, and took advantage of his wife's inattention to steal the body that he and his wife had saved over the years and secretly ran away.
The money was stolen, and his wife was guilty and sick.
He originally wanted to quit his job as a personal guard and find another way out in Beijing, but he happened to meet Qin Shuhuang getting married, so he became Qin Shuhuang's personal guard, and he could go home from time to time outside the palace to take care of his wife.
His wife, who was sick because of guilt, happened to be pregnant at this time, and her health deteriorated, so Luda had to borrow money from Zhai Jin to treat his wife and save the fetus in her womb.
Fortunately, there is no danger, and the wife will successfully give birth to a son, but because of her poor health during pregnancy, she has fallen ill and needs to take medicine every month.
Luda's example of silver as a personal guard is actually a lot compared with ordinary people, saving some flowers, all these years are enough for Luda's family to buy a small yard in Beijing, but an accident happened, and his wife has been needing to take medicine, and the silver money earned by Luda is enough for the family to spend after returning Zhai Jin.
was deducted from the Gu family before, and his wife's medicine was almost broken.
Counting the days, his wife's medicine is gone today, he is in a hurry to go home to send money to his wife, there is still some redundancy after buying medicine, he plans to change a place for his wife and son, and the people in the miscellaneous hospital where he lived before in order to save money are mixed and can not continue to live.
Thinking like this, his steps were faster, and he longed for his feet to have wings and fly to his wife and son in an instant.
For most of the hour, Ruda finally arrived at the gate of the compound where his wife and son lived in Xicheng.
There are more than a dozen families living in the courtyard, and the courtyard doors are open day and night, so there is no need to knock on the door at all.
He strode into the courtyard and walked towards a small door at the very edge.
Ruda's wife is alone with her son, and she has previous experience, so she acts more carefully and low-key, if she doesn't have to during the day, she closes the door, and she doesn't open the door when people knock on the door.
Lu Daxing rushed to the door, and just as he was about to reach out and knock on the door, the old wooden door was opened from the inside.
What came out was an old woman with a rickety body.
The old woman looked up and was startled when she saw the tall soldier in soft armor in front of her, "You, who are you, what are you doing in front of my house!" ”
