"Congratulations to General Mian, Your Majesty promoted the general to General Zhenxi." Hu Sheng smiled and faced Lin Haoming who had just walked out from Yang Xisheng's side.
Lin Haoming looked at Hu Sheng and asked with a smile: "General Hu Sheng, I just learned about the promotion. How come you knew about it earlier than me?"
"I know it from General Hong. After defending Tianzhu City this time, and with the previous achievements, it is natural for the general to be promoted to the third level. However, I heard that this time, general, you may have to go to the capital with General Hong. ?." Hu Sheng asked with a smile.
"Indeed, His Majesty's decree is to recruit me back." Lin Haoming said calmly.
"General, I don't know..." Hu Sheng wanted to say, but stopped.
"Husheng, I know what you mean, but I don't have anything right now, and this place also needs to be guarded. General Husheng, you have also been promoted to one level."
"Haha, I know myself very well. It's okay to obey orders, but I can't do anything if I want to. Under the current situation, it is obviously impossible for the Western God Kingdom to attack Tianzhu City again in the short term. Even if they want to regain their face, they should Came from other places." Hu Sheng said clearly.
"General Hong and I will go to see the situation." Lin Haoming signaled again.
"I understand, I just hope General Mian can remember me." Hu Sheng grabbed Lin Haoming's arms and said.
"General Husheng, it doesn't have to be like this, I understand."
"What the general said is true. By the way, General Hong asked me to come here because he hoped that the general could go to his side." Hu Sheng gestured.
Lin Haoming also nodded. He also knew that Hong Chenyi would definitely look for him if he knew he was going to be transferred.
When Lin Haoming arrived at Hong Chenyi's side, this man had also been waiting here for a long time. When he saw him, he immediately pulled him into his room and closed the door directly.
Lin Haoming looked at some wine and food placed on the table in the room. The food was not moved, but the wine had been opened, and there was still half a glass of wine in one wine glass.
"Come on, sit down quickly, Zhizhuang, you also know that you are going back to Beijing with me." Hong Chenyi pushed Lin Haoming down in front of the table, then took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle and pour wine.
Lin Haoming and Hong Chenyi have become familiar with each other these days, and he said directly: "Master Yang also told me before that he would contact you directly for specific matters. Could it be that this transfer has something to do with you?"
"Brother Mian, what you said is absolutely correct. Let me tell you, when I go back this time, I will most likely serve as the left commander of the Imperial Guard."
"With one commander in chief of the Imperial Guard, and the commander-in-chief of the left and right, you will be in charge of half of the Imperial Guard." Lin Haoming couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"Brother Mian, you are still smiling, this is a hot spot for your butt." Hong Chenyi said with a bitter smile.
"Oh? What's going on?" Lin Haoming asked in surprise.
"Now His Majesty loves Concubine Ling, do you know this?" Hong Chenyi asked.
"Your Majesty loves that concubine, how did I know?" Lin Haoming shook his head.
Hong Chenyi drank the wine in one gulp, and then said: "Brother Mian, do you know who suppressed your promotion before?"
"Can't she be Ling Fei?" Lin Haoming asked in surprise.
"Yes, although my aunt is the queen, it was entirely because Empress Zheng was betrayed and implicated by General Zheng and fell into the cold palace, so she specially selected a concubine whose family had little military power behind her and was relatively young and simple to take over. I don’t have much affection for my aunt. In addition, my aunt has only given birth to a princess and not a prince in recent years, so her position has been unstable. My family’s purpose of letting me follow General Yang is also to cultivate a general with some military power. , in fact, it’s not just me, several people have similar arrangements. It’s just that since I suddenly emerged last year, all hopes are now placed on me. They originally planned to let me practice for a few more years, but I didn’t expect that the concubine in the harem is now the special pamperer. , Auntie can’t bear it any longer." Hong Chenyi said worriedly.
Lin Haoming didn't know much about the emperor, but twenty or thirty years ago, there was a battle between the Northern and Southern Divine Kingdoms and the Western Divine Kingdoms. At that time, Empress Zheng's brother and general Zheng Lingtai was defeated and captured. In the end, he was afraid of being killed and surrendered directly to the enemy. This made Yang Kangkai furious. He even abolished the positions of the queen and the prince. One was relegated to the cold palace and the other was directly demoted to a commoner. Although at that time, the majesty also followed this time and completely solved the biggest hidden danger of the Southern God Kingdom. The power was completely restored to the imperial power, but it was indeed a huge shock to the harem.
"Your aunt has always been prudent in her work. Although she did not give birth to a prince, she was not at fault. His Majesty cannot easily abolish her. Moreover, I have not heard that Concubine Ling has a prince." Lin Haoming could tell that the other party was exaggerating, so he also Tell the truth.
Hong Chenyi sighed and said: "It didn't happen before, but now it is almost there. The concubine Ling is already three or four months pregnant. If my aunt is not the queen, but just an ordinary concubine, then she can just stay peaceful and peaceful without causing trouble, but her The identity is really inconvenient, if Concubine Ling gives birth to a prince, it is inevitable that His Majesty will not have any thoughts."
"Since the Empress does not have a prince, even if Concubine Ling has a prince, after she ascends the throne, she will still respect your aunt as her mother." Lin Haoming said nonchalantly.
"Here's the problem. When Empress Zheng was in the cold palace, Concubine De gave birth to the prince. Now that the prince has grown up, and because Empress Zheng was in the cold palace and gave birth to her, there are rumors that she will replace the prince. In addition, Concubine De is still my aunt's distant cousin." Hong Chenyi indicated.
When Lin Haoming heard this, he looked at Hong Chenyi and said, "If you didn't tell me about this earlier, it wouldn't be simple. You expect Concubine De's child to become the prince, and you are worried that the child of Concubine Ling will usurp the position. In essence, it is still a struggle of interests."
"Brother Mian, I know you must have a solution, right?" Hong Chenyi asked with a smile.
Lin Haoming looked at Hong Chenyi and shook his head: "I'm good at fighting. Don't come to me for this kind of thing."
"Brother Mian, don't be like this. This time you come back with me. The position has been arranged, the Western Commander of the Imperial Guard." Hong Chenyi said.
There is a general commander of the Imperial Guard, followed by two captains and four captains. They are considered to be the highest generals of the Imperial Guard. In most cases, the general commanders are held by relatives of your majesty or the prince. Nowadays, the position of prince does not exist. , so His Majesty’s uncle, King De, is in charge.
After hearing this, Lin Haoming looked at the other party and said: "I said General Hong, you go back and become the commander-in-chief, and I will become the captain. The Imperial Guards are considered your majesty's personal troops, and the generals are all absolute confidants. With this arrangement now, isn't it true that your majesty still has the right to do so?" Do you believe the queen?"
"The key is that the proposal was made by the concubine Ling, and His Majesty agreed, which is why it seems weird. Of course, it may be that there are some changes in my family, and I don't know about it outside." Hong Chenyi said with a bitter smile.
"If there is no change, is she retreating in order to advance?" Lin Haoming looked at Hong Chenyi and asked.
"At least that's what I think. Mr. Yang doesn't want to get involved in Prince Li's affairs, so this time he just told me to take care of myself when I went back." Hong Chenyi said with a bitter smile.
"You just dragged me in?" Lin Haoming asked innocently.
