After Chu Zhan and his carriage passed through seven streets and three restaurants, they finally stopped in front of a huge mansion.
There is a huge plaque above the mansion. On the plaque are three powerful characters: "Rule the mansion!"
Here is the residence of the commander of the royal city, where Chu Zhan, Tang Yu, Chu Feng and others will live next!
"Who are you? Don't you know this is the residence of the commander of the royal city? Don't park the carriage without authorization in front of the residence!"
Just when Butler Chu Zhan stopped the carriage, two solemn-looking guards came to the carriage and shouted sharply.
An ordinary person would definitely be frightened when he saw these two solemn-faced guards, but Butler Chu Zhan had a very good heart. He was neither humble nor arrogant and said: "The person on my carriage is the newly promoted commander of the royal city, Lord Chu Zhan. !”
"What?"
"This person on the carriage is the new commander?"
When the two guards heard this, their expressions changed slightly.
Before this, they had long heard that a new commander would be coming to the commander's office in the next few days, but they didn't expect that the new commander would come so quickly.
At this time, Chu Zhan also heard the noise outside, opened the curtain, and got out of the carriage.
In his hand, he holds the imperial edict!
"Guys, this is the royal decree appointed by the king. Do you want to read it?"
Chu Zhan raised the imperial edict in his hand and said.
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Seeing the imperial edict in Chu Zhan's hand, the two guards shook their heads.
In the Tang Dynasty, no one dared to forge an imperial edict!
"Guards of the Commander's Mansion, pay your respects to Commander Chu!"
"I've met Commander Chu!"
The two guards saluted quickly.
The man in front of them was in charge of their life and death, so they had to leave a good impression on Chu Zhan.
"Um."
Chu Zhan nodded slightly, then opened the curtain of the carriage and said, "Madam, Feng'er, the Commander's Mansion has arrived."
After hearing this, Tang Yu and Chu Feng slowly walked down from the carriage.
What a big mansion!
When Tang Yu saw the Commander's Mansion, he was filled with praise.
The mansion in front of them is four to five times larger than their original mansion in Qingcheng!
As for Chu Feng, he looked calm.
The Demon Locking Tower he used to guard in the Shushan Sword Sect was ten times more majestic than the mansion in front of him!
"You two, take us inside to get acquainted with the Commander's Mansion!"
Chu Zhan looked at the two guards in front of him and said with dignity.
"yes!"
When the two guards heard this, they quickly led the way diligently. When the other guards saw this, their faces showed envy.
This is a good opportunity to get close to the new leader of the royal city!
Tang Yu and Chu Feng also followed closely behind.
"The things you can get by signing in at the Commander's Mansion should be better than the things you can get by signing in at the Chu Mansion in Qingcheng."
After stepping into the Commander's Mansion, Chu Feng said in his heart.
The things he got when he signed in at Qingcheng Chu Mansion were of no use to him at all.
Of course, if it’s useless, it’s useless. You still have to sign in. Anyway, if you don’t take it, you won’t get it for free!
"System, sign in at the Commander's Mansion!"
Chu Feng thought.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully signing in and obtaining "Sun Tzu's Art of War"! 】
The clear voice of the system sounded in Chu Feng's mind.
[Sun Tzu's Art of War: The holy book of military science, which records the methods of deploying troops and generals to fight the enemy. 】
"[Sun Tzu's Art of War]? This is a great book on the art of war. Although I won't use it, I can look through it and find an opportunity to give this [Sun Tzu's Art of War] to my father."
Chu Feng thought.
Chu Feng knew that he was not a general. Even if he read this [Sun Tzu's Art of War], he might not know how to march and fight.
But it's different for Chu Zhan. If we can touch the military power of the Tang Dynasty in the future, then [Sun Tzu's Art of War] can play a big role!
Just when Chu Zhan and others were getting familiar with the Commander's Mansion, the news of their arrival in the royal city also reached the ears of various princes and ministers. Some princes and ministers had already come to the Commander's Mansion with gifts, while some other princes and ministers had a wait-and-see attitude. .
Most of these princes and ministers who have a wait-and-see attitude are those with relatively strong backgrounds.
In their eyes, Chu Zhan was just a country man. Even if he was on good terms with the Sixth Prince, or even valued by the King of Tang, it would not last long.
Perhaps, it was just the king of Tang who asked Eunuch Li to deliver the order on a whim.
Human nature is like this, when you don't like others, you will find a lot of reasons.
…
Half an hour later.
Commandery Mansion.
"Lord Commander, this is the architectural drawing of the Commander's Mansion, so that you can intuitively understand the structure of the Commander's Mansion."
One of the guards who took Chu Zhan to get acquainted with the Commander's Mansion came back panting, with an extra drawing in his hand.
"Well, I understand, thank you for your hard work."
Chu Zhan took the drawing and nodded.
"It is our honor to serve the commander!"
The two guards bent down and said respectfully.
"By the way, among the guards guarding the Commander's Mansion, who is the captain of the guard?"
Chu Zhan asked.
"Come back to the commander, we are all newly transferred here and we don't have a captain of guards yet!"
There was a hint of expectation in the eyes of the two guards.
"Then you will be the captain of the guard, and you will be the deputy captain of the guard!"
Chu Zhan appointed the two of them on the spot. When they heard the words, their faces showed joy and they quickly thanked them: "Thank you very much, Commander, for the promotion. From now on, I will share your worries with you. I will go to the mountains of swords and the sea of fire, no matter what!"
"That's what you say in these scenes, and that's what I listen to."
"I don't need you to go up the mountain of swords or the sea of fire. As long as you are responsible for guarding the commander's mansion, if there is a mistake, then you can get out!"
At the end, Chu Zhan's words contained a hint of severity.
He is well versed in the ways of officialdom. Although he is given "red dates", he still has to beat them so that others can be more loyal.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the new chief of guards and deputy chief of guards hurriedly stated that they would do a good job in guarding.
"I forgot to tell you that this is my wife, Tang Yu."
"And this one is my son, Chu Feng. As for his identity...forget it, I won't tell you."
"When you see them in the future, you must be respectful and not show any slightness."
Chu Zhan pointed to Tang Yu and Chu Feng on the side and introduced.
"Yes, yes, I have met Mrs. Chu and Mr. Chu."
The two of them saluted quickly.
Tang Yu and Chu Feng nodded slightly.
At this moment, Chu Zhan's housekeeper had already walked over.
"Master, there are officials from the Ministry of Personnel outside the door!" the housekeeper said softly.
"An official from the Ministry of Personnel?"
"I think they are here to give the official seal and official uniform of the commander of the royal city, and to explain the work of the commander of the royal city."
"Madam, Feng'er, come with me to greet the officials from the Ministry of Personnel!"
Chu Zhan said.
"Um."
The three of them walked towards the outside of the house, one in front and two behind.
The Commander's Mansion was very large, and it was their first time to visit this mansion, so they were not familiar with it. After walking for a while, they arrived outside the mansion.
When Chu Zhan saw the officials outside the door, he was stunned.
I saw these officials, in addition to carrying the official seal and official uniform of the commander, they also carried a lot of things in large and small bags...
