Chapter 176: Forge ahead

Yulin Zhonglang General, that is, the position that Ye Lan is doing now.

Although this position is a real position, but because it often does not last long, the successive Zhonglang generals do not like to take care of things, and the current Zhonglang general Ye Lan almost does not run to the Yulinwei camp, and he is nowhere to be seen all day.

But this is only an unwritten rule, there is no regulation that stipulates that Yulin Wei Zhonglang will not be in power, so when Li Xin achieves this position, he can try to hold the entire Yulin Wei in his hands!

Yu Linwei is the son of an important force in the capital, as long as he can hold Yu Linwei in his hands, no matter what situation he encounters in the future, the Wei Wangfu can have room to move.

Even if Li Xin can't do it for a long time, he can do it for at least a year or two, and after a year or two, Li Xin will leave the position of Zhonglang general, and he will jump from the middle-level general to the high-level of the Great Jin military.

Therefore, the position of this Zhonglang general is extremely critical.

Li Xin shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Your Highness, not to mention that I am still young and have shallow qualifications, even if I am old enough and not from a general's background, it is difficult to achieve this position." ”

His Royal Highness King Wei knocked lightly on the table and said, "The Son of Heaven Guard, has never been something that any external force can put a beak, and it has always been a place to sit in this position because my father believes that they are loyal, if one day my father thinks that Brother Xin can do this position, then Brother Xin, you can be this general in the feather forest." ”

Shomen is not the same as a civil official.

Civil officials are from the scientific examination, not hereditary, even if the country is ruined, these civil ministers can also vote for a new master, for example, in the current capital, there are many old ministers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Southern Shu in the court, but the gate is very different.

The generals generally existed when the country was founded, for example, the family army is the founding general of the Great Jin Dynasty, and has been sharing weal and woe with the Ji family for more than 100 years.

Similar to the kind of generals of the family army, they share the same fate with the country, and they will be gone without the country, so this group of people is the most trustworthy group of people for the emperor, and because of this relationship, the candidates for the former Yulin Wei Zhonglang generals were all produced in the generals.

In other words, it was not the identity of the shomen that determined this position, but the degree of trust of the emperor.

Li Xin nodded.

Compared with the Seven Princes, he knows too little about the official system, history, and various unspoken rules of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Li Xin stood up from the chair, bowed his head slightly and hugged his fists, "Your Highness, it's too early to say this, I'm going to go back in the next few days to prepare well, and the affairs of the princess's mansion will also be settled temporarily, so I'll go back first." ”

The Seventh Prince got up to see him off, and said with a smile, "Brother Xin, look at this posture, my father clearly wants to promote and reuse you, as long as we don't make mistakes, step by step, this Zhonglang General's position can't run away." ”

Ji Wen's eyes were blazing, "Yu Linwei is a very heavy bargaining chip, with Yu Linwei, our voice will be heavier." ”

Li Xin nodded, hugged his fists and said, "Your Highness, in the future, remember to just bury your head in things, don't make friends everywhere like the four princes, the military department has aroused Your Majesty's vigilance, and if the four princes continue like this, it will be his self-defeating future!" ”

The Seventh Prince smiled very happily, "Speaking of the Ministry of War, Brother Xin'er guessed that he was not wrong at all, yesterday my father just made a will, and Xie Jun, who was not the left waiter, was transferred to the Yushitai, and the new Zuo waiter was an official of Dali Temple, and he was very bad with the fourth brother. ”

These were all expected things, and after Li Xin echoed a few words, he turned around and left the Wei Palace.

In the past few days, he has been busy doing the clairvoyant mirror, and he has not gone to Princess Qinghe's mansion to be on duty, and now he will be ready to leave the capital in a few days, and before that, he has to communicate with the ninth princess.

Anyway, this slightly rude princess Her Royal Highness has never had any princess frame in front of Li Xin, and she can be regarded as sincere.

In addition to the Ninth Princess, when he went to the Northland, Li Xin had to take most of his subordinates away, and the defense of Princess Qinghe's Mansion also needed to be re-delivered.

In the afternoon, Li Xin returned to Princess Qinghe's mansion.

This is the hottest time of the year, and the ninth princess is not willing to go out in this scorching weather, Li Xin easily found her in the "ice house" of the princess's mansion.

After seeing Li Xin, Her Royal Highness the princess's little head was raised high and her head was twisted to the side, the meaning was obvious.

I'm angry!

Coaxing Her Royal Highness the princess is one of the easiest things in the world, Li Xin showed a paper bag from behind him and handed it to Ji Lingxiu.

In the paper bag, there is a golden crispy chicken that has just been fried.

This was made by Li Xin in the kitchen of the princess's mansion.

The ninth princess's eyes lit up, and she "reluctantly" wrapped this paper, and while tearing off a chicken leg with chopsticks, she glanced at Li Xin, "Where have you been these days?" ”

"In the past, although you liked to run around, but you would come to the princess's mansion a few times a day, these days are good, I asked Zhu Ke them, they said you haven't been to the princess's mansion for several days!"

Princess Qinghe gnawed on the chicken leg while gritting her teeth, "As the chief of the princess's house, you have neglected your duties and left the department without permission, I will go to my father to sue you for dereliction of duty!" ”

Li Xin glanced at her, and said helplessly, "It's not the clairvoyant mirror you dedicated to Your Majesty, in the past few days, I and a few old craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry have spent a lot of effort to get it out, and I only finished it this morning and sent it to the palace." ”

As he spoke, Li Xin handed over a handkerchief and motioned for her to wipe the grease stains off her mouth.

What Li Xin is doing these days, the ninth princess actually knows in her heart, the reason why she is making such a fuss is also to play a little temper, after taking the handkerchief, she wiped her mouth and looked up at Li Xin, "You have been busy like this these days, has your father given you any reward?" ”

"Of course."

The ninth princess's eyes lit up, and she snorted coquettishly, "This clairvoyant mirror is what I dedicated to my father, what reward is there, you have to give me half of it." ”

Li Xin found a chair and sat down, and gave the ninth princess a light and heavy look.

"Your Majesty rewarded me for taking Yu Linwei out of Beijing and escorting a batch of military supplies to the Northern Army in Beidi Town, and His Royal Highness will also share half of this reward?"

The ninth princess originally had a smile on her face, but when she heard this, her face suddenly froze.

"Didn't you just come back from southern Xinjiang, why did you want to leave Beijing again?"

Senior Lieutenant Li shrugged his shoulders and smiled very chicly, "The so-called capable people work hard." ”

"You're still laughing!"

The ninth princess had red eyes, sat on the chair and glanced at Li Xin angrily, "No heart and no lungs!" ”

The youngest daughter's mind is the most emotional, especially at the age of the ninth princess, she can cry when she sees the spring flowers on the ground, not to mention this "sweetheart" who is interesting to talk about, delicious to cook, and very capable, and wants to stay away from herself?

Seeing that she really shed tears, Li Xin shook his head a little helplessly and sat down on a chair next to the ninth princess.

"Your Highness, if I had been staying in the capital, I am afraid that I would not have the opportunity to return to the princess's mansion again in my life, can you understand?"

Ji Lingxiu wiped her tears and looked at Li Xin with red eyes.

She is from the royal family, and she is also very intelligent, so she can naturally understand.

Li Xin is now only a seventh-grade captain, if he can't find a chance to stay in the capital, he will still be just a captain in the next few years or even ten years, and he won't have too many opportunities to climb.

If Li Xin wants to be qualified to marry the princess, he must work hard to be promoted, work hard to be motivated, and work hard to please the future father-in-law.

The Ninth Princess's long eyelashes blinked, and she gritted her teeth.

"What about you...... When will you be back? ”
