If the rental house in the past was a haven for one's soul, now, Prince Yong's Mansion has become a new resting place.
Before entering the mansion, Li Xian walked out of the carriage and glanced at the door.
It's just a pity...this place will become a thing of the past soon. The East Palace is where I will stay for a long time.
Passing by the front yard, Li Xian got off the carriage and asked the driver to drive the carriage to a small yard.
This place was specially opened by the palace to accommodate guests. If Li Xian had not married yet, then Li Xian could do whatever he wanted after entering the palace. Now that he has married, the backyard has become a semi-forbidden area for Li Xian. He needs the consent of his master before he can enter.
Glancing at Xu Ze who was following him, Li Xian ordered: "Assign some people to guard day and night. Remember, there won't be any mistakes."
Xu Ze cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will sleep next door to the King of England at night."
Seeing that Xu Ze knew the pros and cons, Li Xian didn't say much.
For him now, Li Xian is a big bomb. Maybe Li Xian himself has no idea about the position of prince, but there are always some people who want to push him towards that goal with selfish purposes.
Just like the method he used to slander Yang Dengzhi and others, he had to be careful of such sewage until he became the prince. Among the princes, Li Xian is the most likely to be targeted by the enemy. Once something happens to Li Xian, he will be the one with the yellow mud in his crotch.
Looking at Du Chunyi again, Li Xian asked tentatively: "General Du, I want to ask you, if I give you another order at this time, will you still obey it?"
Du Chunyi cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, your token will be valid as long as it is not taken back by His Majesty. However, for such a small matter as guarding the King of England, there is no need for you to tie up your humble duties here. After all, the funeral is over. From now on, in this humble position, I will also be responsible for protecting the saint.”
Think about it, using Qianniuwei General to guard one person is indeed overkill.
Li Xian nodded and said, "Since you want to go back, then go back. However, you have to find someone trustworthy and skilled for me to lead the team. These two hundred thousand guards will stay in the palace. is that OK."
Du Chunyi cupped his hands and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, there is no problem at all. This time I accompanied Your Highness and brought a lieutenant general with him. With his skills, there is no problem in protecting the King of England."
"Can you trust it?"
Li Xian felt that the most important thing was this.
Du Chunyi said without hesitation: "If the humble post unfortunately dies, he will be the one to replace the humble post."
After hearing this, Li Xian no longer doubted it.
As long as the lieutenant will be someone personally selected by the emperor, it will be fine. In fact, it is mainly the person selected by the emperor. Under normal circumstances, traitors will basically not appear.
"Bring the people here, and then you can take the money and leave. By the way, when giving money to the families of the three soldiers who died in the battle, you are not allowed to say that it is from me."
Rewards are rewards, compensation is compensation. Maybe Li Xian will pay to compensate the Qianniu Guards soldiers who died in the battle because he feels guilty, but he should try to downplay his own influence in it.
You haven't become the crown prince yet, but you've started to win over Qian Niuwei. What are you going to do?
Du Chunyi also knew the pros and cons, so he didn't say much, bowed and then left.
When there were no outsiders around, Li Yun came over and said, "Your Highness, you have arranged this well. As long as the King of England lives in our palace, you will be able to ascend to the position of crown prince smoothly. Whether you want to support The King of England’s people, or those who want to dislodge you, have no excuses.”
Li Xianbai glanced at Li Yun and said nothing more.
In fact, he only discovered the beauty of it after arranging it this way.
Sure enough, good deeds will be rewarded.
After stretching, Li Xian walked into the lobby of the palace.
Not long after, Du Chunyi entered the lobby to report with a tall and straight lieutenant general.
"Ma Liang, general of the Qianniu Guard, who is a lieutenant general in the Qianniu Guard, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Seeing the lieutenant general, Li Yun glanced at Li Xian and nodded.
When cleaning up the guards of Prince Ying's Mansion yesterday, Li Yun had seen this guy's skills, and he was definitely not bad.
Li Xian still believed in Li Yun. Looking at Ma Liang, Li Xian said: "General Du is going back to the imperial mausoleum, so I will let you lead the team for the time being. I don't like to talk nonsense about loyalty, so I can only promise you , as long as you can protect the King of England safe and sound, it is a great achievement. If necessary, if you die in place of the King of England, I will at least ensure that your family will have enough food and clothing for three generations, how about that?"
Hearing this, Ma Liang was stunned for a moment, and then said firmly: "Your Highness, don't worry, since the day I joined Qianniu Guard, I have never thought about dying. Even without Your Highness's reward, I will never slack off!"
After nodding, Li Xian waved his hand, indicating that Du Chunyi could leave.
Knowing that these guys in Qian Niuwei are willing to sacrifice themselves for the royal family at any time, Li Xian arranged this just to make himself feel better.
When it comes to being cruel to the enemy, it is natural to be cruel, but towards his own people, Li Xian still cannot treat human life as nothing. Since the ancients said that there must be a brave man under a heavy reward, when you can provide money, it is better not to always fool people with "glory", which is not enough to fill the stomach.
"Li Yun, you and Xu Ze can arrange the defense around the King of England. I need to rest for a while."
Li Yun agreed before leading Ma Liang out. Then he turned around and asked, "Your Highness, there is a guy named Yao Yuanchong, who was the groom at the prince's funeral that day. He is waiting at the door. Do you want to summon him?"
"Yao Yuanchong?"
Li Xian was a little tired and wanted to take a rest, but when he heard the name, he immediately became energetic.
"Let him in!"
Seeing the change in King Yong's expression, Li Yun knew that this Yao Yuanchong was not simple, so he took Ma Liang out, introduced him to Xu Ze, and ran all the way to pick him up.
Li Xian, on the other hand, couldn't help but stand up and pace back and forth in the lobby.
Can't wait to meet you...
Yao Chong, even though that day was not far away, I didn't pay much attention to this person because I stayed up late.
Now that this guy has reported to the palace, it means that the emperor should have released him.
Li Xian was extremely excited when he thought that the talented person who could break up the relationship with Fang Mou was now picked up by him.
There will be one such person soon. In addition to Yao Chong and Di Renjie, Zhang Jian and others can be temporarily relieved.
Yao Yuan, who admired literature, Tao and martial arts, was the best candidate to be a minister, servant, and archer. However, if Di Renjie was only a servant, it would be too unqualified. Prime Minister was very suitable. And one of these two people is good at military affairs and the other is good at criminal justice. Even if he serves as the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Minister of Criminal Affairs, there will be no problem.
