In the martial arts field to the east of the princess's palace, more than a dozen young eunuchs and four or five maids were busy arranging and arranging various performance weapons under the command of Princess Zhaoyang.
At this time, Princess Zhaoyang was still dressed in military uniform as when Jia Lian first saw her, looking clean and capable.
When she heard the sound of horse hooves, she looked along the road, and her eyes showed joy.
"Sister Royal~!"
The fourth prince jumped off his horse and ran to Princess Zhaoyang very happily.
Who knew that his imperial sister didn't seem to see him at all, her eyes as bright as stars, only looking at his side.
"Jia Lian, a humble minister, comes to see His Highness Zhaoyang."
"Marquis Zhenyuan doesn't need to be polite."
Princess Zhaoyang took two steps forward, looked at Jia Lian, and then said with a smile: "I haven't seen him for many days, and the Marquis Zhenyuan looks even better than before."
"Your Highness is ridiculously complimentary. Your Highness's valiant and handsome appearance is already beyond the reach of others. Now that he has left the palace to take charge of the palace alone, he will definitely stir up the storm in the divine capital, and allow ordinary people like us to have the opportunity to see the brilliance of the bright moon."
"Hehehe... Marquis Zhenyuan is becoming more and more talkative, but I have just acquired this house, and many places still need to be repaired, so for the time being I still live in Weiyang Palace and cannot stay outside." Princess Zhaoyang lifted her black hair and smiled brightly. road.
Listening to his royal sister's heartfelt laughter, the fourth prince, who was already a little unhappy that her royal sister ignored him, furrowed his brows and stared intently at the two complimenting each other.
has a problem……
Just the royal sister. My imperial sister has always been informal, and it would be nothing to praise a man who was kind to her in person.
But in his mind, Jia Lian was a very cautious and steady person. How could he shamelessly praise his sister in front of her, and speak in such a disgusting way that it gave him goosebumps!
The fourth prince, who did not want his imperial sister to be confused by Jia Lian, squeezed in between Princess Zhaoyang and Jia Lian, and said with a smile: "Emperor Sister, your princess mansion is really too big. I have come in twice before. I almost got lost..."
Princess Zhaoyang had to look at him, her smile faded, and she said to him: "That's because you are stupid. Well, you came just in time. Don't you like to play with swords, guns, swords and halberds the most? Go and help me command those People, prepare all the weapons and prepare them for me."
"Oh fine."
Although the fourth prince was reluctant, he still obeyed the order and passed.
Even without the interruption of light bulbs, it was impossible for Jia Lian and Princess Zhaoyang to communicate further in public.
Just look at each other a few times, see each other's thoughts in their eyes, and remember them in their hearts.
Suddenly, she saw Aqi and Aqin standing by and waiting quietly. Princess Zhaoyang raised her hand high to call them over.
"Back outside the Great Wall, you pretended to be me and helped me distract my pursuers. I promised you at that time that as long as you could go back alive, I would not treat you badly. Now that I have not shown any sign of it for so long, are you scolding me in your heart? Pass me?"
Princess Zhaoyang looked at Ah Qin with a smile and asked jokingly.
Ah Qin was a little nervous. Although she knew that Princess Zhaoyang was probably one of her father's women, after all, Princess Zhaoyang's identity was there, and she did not dare to offend her, so she hurriedly said, "Don't dare."
Seeing that she was so cautious, Princess Zhaoyang stopped teasing her. She took out a token from her arms and said with a smile: "On the way back to Beijing, the reason why I didn't mention this matter is not that I forgot, but that I had already mentioned it." Have a plan.
According to the ritual system of the Wei Dynasty, if I can open a mansion and build a tooth, there will be five places for third-class guards in the mansion, and each place will be a fifth-rank position.
If you are willing, accept this token. From now on, you will be a third-class bodyguard under my princess's residence.
With this status, even if you are in Jia Mansion in the future, no one will dare to look down on you. "
Princess Zhaoyang said, looking at Jia Lian specifically.
Jia Lian's expression moved slightly, a little surprised, but he had no intention of intervening.
Third-class bodyguard is the lowest level of royal bodyguard. But even the lowest grade is still fifth grade.
According to the regulations, the county king can only send out a maximum of two high-ranking royal guards, and he can only send out third-class guards.
The prince has much greater authority and can dispatch five third-class guards and two second-class guards. Second-class bodyguard, position (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 432 Third Class Guard
Level four.
On top of the second- and third-class guards, there are naturally first-class guards.
However, first-class bodyguards are only eligible for use by the emperor. Of course, the Supreme Emperor can do it too.
For example, the famous imperial guard Long Jinwei has a total of three hundred people. Among them, the most common Dragon Guards are all third-class guards, with a rank of fifth rank. First class bodyguard, rank three.
According to the ancestral system of the Wei Dynasty, any prince who opens a palace or establishes a family at the age of sixteen, as long as he has not committed any serious mistakes or is very disgusting to the emperor, can be awarded the title of prince.
As a princess with a separate title, Princess Zhaoyang originally took the position as the prince. Now that she has opened a palace, she can naturally appoint two second-class guards and five third-class guards.
Ah Qin is familiar with the culture of the Central Plains, she also knows the meaning of the royal guard, and she also knows how important it is to her if she can get this status.
So when she suddenly heard Princess Zhaoyang say that, she was very moved.
In the official-based society of the Wei Dynasty, having a rank was really important.
It can be said that once she received the title of bodyguard of Princess Zhaoyang Mansion, in the entire Jia Mansion, except for a few people such as Jia Lian and Jia Mu, no one else would dare to disrespect her anymore.
Including those masters and masters who have no foundation, that is, no rank or destiny, if she is willing, she can even ask the other party to meet her first.
Therefore, the gift given to her by Princess Zhaoyang was not unimportant. It could even be said that it was tailor-made for her.
There were many benefits, but she didn't dare to ask for them. When she and her sister came to the Central Plains, they did not come to the Central Plains to be officials, but wanted to follow Jia Lian.
Now she abandons her sister and Jia Lian and works as a guard at the princess's mansion. What's going on? Just as she was about to decline politely, Princess Zhaoyang saw her thoughts and said in advance: "Don't worry, I'm not asking you to follow me from now on.
Even after you receive the token, you can continue to follow your Marquis, just treat him as me and send him alone. "
Princess Zhaoyang said, casting a playful look at Jia Lian, as if asking how to repay her kindness.
Originally, Ah Qin was just an insignificant figure in her heart, and the reason why she was willing to spend some time on it was just for Jia Lian's sake. Moreover, showing kindness to Aqin can be regarded as an open and honest way of placing a "one of our own" beside Jia Lian.
She was happy to do such a thing.
I originally thought that since she had thought so carefully, Aqin would have no reason to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Ah Qin knelt down with a thud, "I thank the princess for your kindness, but I have an unkind request. I hope the princess can agree to it."
"Huh? Tell me."
"Yes, I know that the princess is willing to give this status to me purely for the sake of our Lord Marquis.
The slave was also very grateful to the princess for her kindness. However, my servant is not talented enough. Ever since I followed our Marquis, I have always relied on the Marquis and my sister to protect me, so I have no merit whatsoever.
As for my sister, she has been diligently practicing archery, horse riding, and archery since she was a child, and has helped the Marquis achieve many meritorious deeds. Therefore, I want to implore the princess to give this opportunity to my sister Aqi.
Only in this way can we truly match our virtues and positions, and only in this way will it be more helpful to my Marquis. "
Hearing what Ah Qin said, Princess Zhaoyang was a little surprised.
She knew very well that giving the other party the status of a third-class bodyguard without asking him to switch to her account was equivalent to adding a foundation out of thin air to someone like Ah Qin who had no foundation in the Central Plains. What a precious opportunity?
She didn't expect that Ah Qin would be willing to give such an opportunity to her sister.
Although Aqi didn't know much about the relationship between the third-class guards, he knew from his sister's behavior that it was a very important thing.
She was very moved, but she was not good at expressing herself. After hesitating for a while, she also imitated her sister, knelt down and kowtowed: "I don't need this, but the princess will reward Ah Qin as promised."
Princess Zhaoyang raised her eyebrows and glanced at Jia Lian with admiration in her eyes.
During the trip to Wala, Aqi and Aqin followed Jia Lian. Especially Aqi, who rode the same horse with her for a long time on the way back from the desert. Therefore, Princess Zhaoyang has some understanding of these two Tatar women (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 432 Third Class Guard
.
She didn't expect that the two sisters had such a good relationship and would be so humble in the face of such an opportunity.
It can be seen that Jia Lian either has a keen eye for picking up pearls, or he has deep blessings to allow him to pick up such a good person.
Seeing that it was inconvenient for Jia Lian to interfere with her sisters, Princess Zhaoyang waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "I take it as a big request. It's rare that you have such deep love for your sister. In this case, I simply If you are more generous, I will grant you the status of a third-class bodyguard."
Princess Zhaoyang said, beckoning someone to get another token for a third-class guard.
Jia Lian advised him at the right time: "This is not appropriate. There are only five places available for His Highness, so I only gave two to you. It is too much for me to overstep my bounds."
Princess Zhaoyang smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? I don't need so many people around me anyway, so I'll just treat it as an advantage to you. Anyway, your transgression..."
Princess Zhaoyang wanted to take the opportunity to tease Jia Lian, but she stopped when she saw her silly brother approaching.
The fourth prince also saw the situation just now. At this time, he came close to Jia Lian and said with a thief smile: "These are the two women you snatched back from the grassland? That's really good. I will decide when." I want to lead my troops to the Tartar King’s Court and snatch two of the Tartar King’s daughters back…”
"Okay, your Highness, don't forget to take Wei Chen with you when the time comes. Wei Chen can give His Highness directions and tell His Highness which of the Tatar King's daughters is good-looking."
"Uh-huh, okay, okay..." The fourth prince said so loudly that he actually blushed when Jia Lian retorted with a joke.
Yes, after all, it is not appropriate for someone who has not yet married a wife to pretend to be dissolute.
"snort."
Princess Zhaoyang saw Jia Lian and the two of them starting to discuss this matter in front of her. She snorted softly, turned around and supported Ah Qin, and asked her two sisters to stand up. These two will be nominally hers from now on.
They must be allowed to take good care of Jia Lian and not be allowed to mess around with others outside.
