The Internal Guards were a branch of the Yulin Army in the Yan Dynasty. Later in the Chen Dynasty, the Yulin Army was renamed the Imperial Guard. The Internal Guards were separated from it and became a special force for the emperor to collect intelligence and supervise the officials. Team.
Hearing the words "Inner Guards Army", Sheng Yuan's mind instantly recognized the name.
From her understanding, the Internal Guards were roughly equivalent to the Imperial Guards in her previous life.
Of course, there are still some differences between the two.
Lu Sheng's father, Mr. Lu Sanye, had previously served in the Internal Guard and reached the rank of fourth rank.
The Internal Guard Army is under the jurisdiction of the Internal Guard Department, and the place where officials and prisoners are detained is called the Imperial Prison, and people often call it the Internal Guard Prison.
Because the Imperial Guard has a wide range of powers and is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, and can report on the situation without bypassing the cabinet, it is not very popular among courtiers.
With these thoughts flashing through Sheng Yuan's mind, the inner guards outside had already entered Yong Fan Garden with noisy footsteps.
The leader of the inner guard, Sheng Yuan, had seen him in the palace garden, but his name was unknown.
This man has a handsome face, narrow eyes, and a brocade fur with fish scales, which adds a bit of majesty. The two long knives parallel to his waist are the standard equipment of the inner guard.
"Sheng Shanda, the deputy commander of the Internal Guard, He, is so polite!" Commander He said hello with fists in his hands, but his face was cold and without a smile, which made Sheng Yuan tremble.
Sheng Xiangxun was quite stable. When he saw the deputy commander of the Internal Guard coming to his house, he was extremely surprised.
He rarely interacts with his colleagues, so why did he attract this group of people?
Before he could ask in detail, the other party already stated his intention.
"I'd like to ask Mr. Shanda to go with me." Commander He took out the seal script waistband unique to the Internal Guards. Among the waistbands with a red background, a golden seal character "order" shone brightly.
"Commander He, I would like to ask you to hold off for a while while I comfort my wife and children." Although Sheng Xiangxun was not afraid, his wife Zheng and his two daughters did not know what was going on, so they might be nervous.
Hearing this, Commander He nodded without thinking and just told him to hurry up.
Sheng Xiangxun sighed, turned around and comforted his wife: "Don't worry, just go and sit down and come back."
"Well, don't worry about us." Ms. Zheng was worried in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She just kept reminding you, "Whatever I ask you, just say whatever you want. Just control your temper. Don't let others say you are wrong." If it sounds good, you’ll get angry.”
Sheng Xiangxun smiled, gently smoothed her hair on her temples, and nodded in response.
Zheng smiled softly, looked in the direction of Commander He, and asked in a low voice: "Would you like to say hello to your aunt and the prince?"
"No need. It's really necessary. The prince will know about it." Sheng Xiangxun shook his head. He still thought it was not a big deal.
He gently held his wife's hand and turned to tell his eldest daughter: "Sister An, you are an older child. Take good care of your mother at home, keep an eye on your sister, and wait for your father to come back."
"Don't worry, Dad, I can take good care of my mother and sister. We'll wait for you to come back for dinner." Sheng An didn't show any panic, nodded vigorously, and then winked at her father, "Daddy's character is known to everyone, I'm afraid it's just a routine matter, Xu I’m asking about your colleagues.”
Sheng Xiangxun didn't expect that the eldest daughter had a gap in her heart, so she felt relieved and blinked in response.
After giving instructions to his eldest daughter, Sheng Xiangxun planned to coax his younger daughter.
As a result, he lowered his head: "???"
The little chubby girl who was standing on the other side of Ling Niang disappeared!
Where are people? !
"Why did my sister go to Commander He's place?" Sheng Ran raised her eyes and shouted softly.
Zheng and Sheng Xiangxun heard the sound and looked over, only to see that the little girl was tugging on his sleeves, raising her head and talking to the cold-faced commander!
Speaking of which, Commander He was also a little confused.
He did not expect that the handsome and dignified Mr. Sheng would be a talker, and he would never stop talking to his wife and daughter.
He didn't even expect that the little girl in this family could still chatter. She didn't know how to be afraid of such a young person, and she actually chatted with him in a familiar manner!
People say that the people in the Internal Guards can stop children from crying at night, and he himself has a nickname in Beijing, called "Tong Bu Ciao", because no matter how mischievous the children are, they will be frightened into silence when they see him. .
But looking at this fair and fat little girl, he didn't know whether he didn't suit that nickname anymore, or whether this one was an exception.
Commander He recalled seeing this happy little girl in the palace many times before.
It seemed that it was not unusual for this little girl who could have fun back and forth between Qingyuan Palace and Manfu Palace, and even fly a kite to be cheered by the emperor and empress, and not be afraid of him...
After thinking about this for a while, Commander He, who was concentrating, found that the childish sound of milk in his ears continued.
"Master He, my father is a very simple man! He is lazy and afraid of trouble, so he won't do bad things at all. You have to find out."
When Sheng Yuan saw Commander He was in a daze, she thought that the previous pleasantries were probably useless, so she might as well say directly if she had something to say:
"I heard that after being imprisoned, if you don't obey, you may be beaten? Although my father sometimes has a bad mouth, he is not a bad person. If you have anything to say, please ask him carefully and don't beat him!
My aunt always said that dad is the most delicate, and he still has thin skin and tender flesh for such a big man!
Last time, my grandfather whipped him and his skin was slightly bruised. My aunt sent the imperial doctor to the palace and asked Aunt Qi to go to Anhe Hall to apologize. My grandfather was so embarrassed! Now I don’t even hit my dad with a stick! "
Sheng Xiangxun came over to snatch this daring little guy away, but when her daughter told her about it, she almost jumped up.
Of course, the one who blushed more than him was Duke Sheng Guo who heard that the third son was going to be taken away.
As soon as he entered Yongfan Garden with his robe in hand, he heard that little thing from Sister Yuan mentioning him, and he immediately stepped forward and retreated.
This little guy follows his father and is also very annoying!
Sheng Yuan felt two pairs of eyes coming together. She looked up curiously and saw that her grandfather and father were both lucky.
Sheng Yuan thought that it had nothing to do with him, and waved his hand politely and said hello:
"Grandpa! Dad, grandpa is coming!"
After shouting this, she turned around and continued talking to Commander He:
"My father's ambitions are not high, and now he is waiting to retire. The emperor's aunt and uncle also told me that my father is not living up to expectations. Every time his old man wants to promote him, he always cheats!
Mr. He, look, my father is not interested in wealth and does not pursue power. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for him to commit any crime! If someone makes a false accusation, you have to find out! "
"Sister Yuan!" Before Commander He could speak, Sheng Xiangxun went over and picked up this daring little thing, "That's it! That's it! No need to say anything more!"
Sheng Yuan was carried back by her father. Thinking that there was still something important to say, she hurriedly turned around and poked her head to add to Commander He:
"Master He, if you let my father eat at your place, remember to give him some delicious food! The prince's cousin is always jealous of my father's thin figure. If he loses weight when he is hungry at your place, he will be in better shape later. Prince's cousin I'm afraid I'll be unhappy! Uh-huh!"
Before Sheng Yuan finished speaking, her father covered her mouth.
