It's very reluctant to say it's one of my own.
The Longtou Guards originally had less than a hundred people, but they suffered many casualties, and some stayed with Long Wei in Qianhu County, leaving them with only twenty or thirty people left.
After Long Yi returned to the royal city, he expanded the Dragon Head Guards and transferred many elites from the Royal Forest Army and the Imperial Guard to rebuild the Dragon Head Guards.
Among them was a man from the Royal Forest Army who was now a leading guard and was related to this Yalang.
"Do you know Feng Er?
I am his third uncle! "
Feng Er?
I really don’t know him.
Zhou Xiaozhou shook his head: "I don't know him."
Yalang's expression changed again, and he looked at him suspiciously: "Could it be that I'm pretending to be a leading guard?
This is a serious crime, a serious crime of decapitation. "
The serious leader of the guard, number two, had to kneel before anyone came to him until he was dismissed.
Zhou Xiaozhou snorted coldly: "Are you pretending to be? Come find him."
This tooth man really sent someone to confront Feng Er, and at the same time invited Zhou Xiaozhou and his party to sit down and drink tea at the tooth shop, which was regarded as detaining him.
This Feng Er arrived very quickly, and he did look familiar.
The Yulin Army who was able to join the Longtou Guard was also a meritorious soldier who accompanied the expedition to the Yamai Kingdom. Feng Er naturally recognized Zhou Xiaozhou. He quickly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute: "Master Zhou is back. It's been so hard to wait. Brothers. I’m looking forward to you.”
Zhou Xiaozhou asked: "What happened?"
"Something serious has happened."
After Feng Er saluted, he stood up and sat down in the seat given by his third uncle. He took the tea and drank it. After moistening his throat, he said, "I have been transferred to the leading guard now. I am considered a subordinate of Mr. Zhou. Please take care of me." .”
The Dragon Head Guard is now considered to be a tripartite force. The Royal Forest Army, the Imperial Guard, and the Old Dragon Head Guard are three different groups that are dissatisfied with each other before they are completely integrated.
In terms of numbers, Lao Longtouwei had the smallest number of people.
Now it is a leaderless situation again, and the old leading guard does not have the upper hand.
If Long Wei comes back, even if the number of Longtou Guards is very small, if others fill in, they can only be regarded as their subordinates.
Long Wei didn't come back, and the people who came in were strong, so he was at a disadvantage and felt very frustrated.
Moreover, it is said that the new boss will be transferred from the Imperial Guard or the Royal Forest Army, and the situation is even more delicate.
It is also said that many high-ranking officials in the DPRK have recommended many people to seize the position of the leading guard, and the situation has become even more delicate.
No matter who came from the Royal Guards or the Royal Forest Army, they could be dissatisfied with each other. Before it was determined who would be the boss, Zhou Xiaozhou, the second-in-command, was a real person. He had repeatedly made military exploits on the battlefield and killed many people. No one dared to do so. Not convinced, but quite close to him.
He is still the second child. Even if he changes to another boss, the second child is still stable and cannot be messed with.
When Na Yalang saw that Zhou Xiaozhou was indeed a member of the Longtou Guard and his nephew's boss, he quickly said: "Since we are all our own, if the master wants this house, he can get it with one hundred thousand gold."
This price reduction is not just about fractures, right?
Zhou Xiaozhou looked at him doubtfully.
Yalang hurriedly said: "This house is already considered an ownerless property. How much money it sells is just for charity. It doesn't matter how much it can be sold."
If you sell at a high price, the dental store will take more commission. If you sell less, the commission will be smaller. If you can have a chance to hold on to your thigh, how can money be calculated clearly?
Zuo Xiong said hurriedly: "Even if the other members of the Zuo family are gone, I am still a member of the Zuo family. How can I be an ownerless thing!"
Yalang said with a smile: "This young master wants to prove that you are the owner of this house. You need to go to many yamen to prove your identity. However, this place has been officially recognized as an ownerless property. If you want to turn it around, I'm afraid... ···quite difficult."
Unless there is a big shot willing to run errands and open up various relationships.
Running one lap would only cost more than 100,000 gold in manpower, material and financial resources, so why bother running?
After discussing it, Qiao Yan looked at Zhou Xiaozhou and said, "Buy it. It's very troublesome to go through all the fussing. It's better to just buy it."
Zhou Xiaozhou actually wanted to buy a house without disputes and live there in a down-to-earth manner. When the Zuo family bought this house, it was a bit embarrassing to have it in his name. What if it was not in my own name and was kicked out later?
It’s not a safe place to live!
One hundred thousand gold is really not a lot of money to some people, just two or three flying swords.
Qiao Xing could raise money quickly if he wanted to sell the talismans. He said, "Xiaozhou, just lend it to your aunt."
"good."
Since she asked to borrow money, Zhou Xiaozhou couldn't refuse, so he paid the money immediately, and the owner's name was listed under Zuo Xiong's name.
Zhou Xiaozhou was thinking about finding another house, but Qiao Xing took Qiao Yan and He Tingyu to live in them, so he had no choice but to follow them.
The Zuo family's mansion can indeed be regarded as a top-notch mansion in the royal city. It has been deserted for several years and can be moved in after some repairs.
However, such a large house would seem too deserted without people, and many servants would have to be hired to take care of it, which would increase the expenses.
Without enough official positions, it would be difficult to support such a facade.
They were as close to each other as a family, and Qiao Yan didn't care about anything. She treated this place as her own home, and immediately hired dozens of servants to tidy up and repair the places that needed to be repaired.
Busy and lively, it has regained its popularity.
If the owner is not her, it feels like a dove occupying a magpie's nest.
Zhou Xiaozhou was a little awkward and couldn't show it, so he could only settle down for the time being.
But, should it be called Zuofu or Zhoufu on the lintel?
This was a bit of a headache, and it was not easy to be entangled with a woman, so I went to the palace the next day.
Coincidentally, this day is also a meeting day.
As for court meetings, when there was nothing serious, they didn't go to court every day. They usually went to court every three, six or nine. Zhou Xiaozhou didn't keep track of the time at all. It was purely a coincidence.
"Master Zhou is back..."
Because I met Feng Er yesterday, the news of his return naturally spread, and many of the imperial guards guarding the gate knew him and said hello.
Having fought battles together and lived life and death together, we will naturally feel more cordial.
Known, unknown, familiar, unfamiliar...
After saying hello, Zhou Xiaozhou walked all the way inside. He also had to cancel his leave with Long Yi before he could officially come back to work.
At that time, Long Yi probably wanted him to avoid it for a year or two or several years, be a good weapon refiner, and not get involved in the disputes in the court. Now that he has been back three or four months ago, I can't tell what his thoughts are, and I can't help but feel a little uneasy.
Wu Shengguo's court hall is called Wuji Hall. There are three posts on the way from the palace gate. They are densely packed with soldiers of the Royal Guards in bright armor. The warriors in front of the hall also belong to the Royal Guards. The leading guard actually has no official position. It is based on the configuration of the Thunder Guards. Say, it's just an organization hiding in the dark.
Today's leading guard is in an even more embarrassing situation, with many people standing outside the palace gate, at a loss as to what to do.
The group of dragons was leaderless, especially the old dragon head guards, who were quite frustrated. Seeing him finally appearing, someone shouted excitedly: "Master Zhou, you are finally back!"
You may have thought that his second child was useless before, but now it's like a little tadpole has found its mother.
