Chapter 636 A Very Strange Career Trajectory
Shangguan Jing felt: there is something tricky!
On the surface, Zheng Yi's resume seems to be a thoughtful and ambitious officer of the Royal Internal Guard. According to his own career plan, he left the Royal Internal Guard early. It took him 20 years to become a commander of the infantry. this position.

That's pretty inspiring.

But Shangguanjing didn't think so.

Zheng Yi is not the only military officer who was born in the imperial guard of the court.In Qu Jingwu's words, many royal guards who came from aristocratic families can find a good future in the army after leaving the palace.

After all, he has a background and contacts, a good resume in the palace, and a good ability selected from the third-level camp training. Who wouldn't like to use such an officer?

Zheng Yi, a son of a noble family, was selected by the Wu De Division with outstanding talents, and he worked hard to survive the third-level camp training to stand out, and successfully became the royal guard. After suffering so much, he was only in the royal family Wei has been in office for seven years.

When he was transferred to the Royal Forest Army, he was still very young!
If it was said that he used the post of Royal Internal Guard as a springboard like guards from other aristocratic families, then this springboard would be too uneconomical.In just seven years, based on Zheng Yi's background, he should be able to get a good job if he goes directly to the border Kansai Army.

Most of the royal guards from aristocratic families would not choose such a path.It is much easier to appreciate in the royal inner guard than outside.

For example, Mo Chenfeng has worked steadily in the palace all his life and is deeply trusted by the emperor. Even if he leaves the palace in the future, he will at least be assigned a military officer position of rank three or higher, which cannot be lower than his current rank.

There is also the current General of the Zuo Jinwu Guard, who is also a descendant of an aristocratic family from the Royal Internal Guard.He has been in the palace steadily for 18 years. After leaving the palace, he went directly to the Jinwu Guard. He served as a general of the fourth rank, but he was promoted from the third rank to the general in half a year. Now he is sitting on the second rank. The throne of the General of the Jinwu Guard, one of the most powerful factions among the military generals in Beijing.What Marquis Wu Ding cared most about was his position.

On the other hand, Zheng Yi, who worked so hard to toss such a big circle, didn't he end up being just a fifth-rank infantry commander?What is the picture?

Shangguanjing didn't answer Xiao Jingheng's question immediately, but asked outside who was on duty.

Coincidentally, Wei Zhengliang happened to be on duty today, and Yu Changmin had just handed over to him, when he heard Shangguan Jing calling for someone, the two came in together.Both of these two were royal guards who were descendants of noble families. When Shangguan Jing saw them coming in, he immediately laughed.

"Master Yu, Lord Wei," Shangguan Jing asked with a smile, "I would like to ask, what plans do you two have for the future?"

Yu Changmin and Wei Zhengliang looked at each other, they didn't know where the princess concubine's question came from, but Wei Zhengliang was very straightforward, and asked directly: "I don't know what the empress is referring to. I don't know how to answer for a while. The only one who can What came to mind was that the eldest son of the subordinate is seven years old this year, and he really has no talent in reading. The subordinate thought of taking him to Wu Desi to have a look in a few days. In the future, it is also a way out to work in the palace as my subordinates."

The younger Yu Changmin turned his head to look at Wei Zhengliang, and replied honestly: "Then the immediate plan of this subordinate is to marry a wife. He is not young and has not yet married. My mother has already died of anxiety."

These two are honest.As soon as the words came out, Shangguanjing, Xiao Jingheng and Qu Jingwu who were present all laughed.

"What about career?" Shangguan asked with a smile: "Master Wei wants to raise a son, and Master Yu also needs to support his family when he becomes a relative. What about the future plan?"

"The future is on the way..." Wei Zhengliang smiled: "The subordinate is very good in the East Palace, and I want to work with the Crown Princess. Of course, our royal guards have a stipulation on the number of years of service. When the subordinate ages up, the time will come. If you can’t keep up with the newcomers, you should leave the palace naturally. According to regulations, the Ministry of War will arrange a good place for your subordinates.”

Yu Changmin nodded, expressing his agreement, and added another sentence: "When that day comes, if the empress wants the subordinates to go, just give instructions directly. The subordinates will obey the empress."

"Do the royal guards have the same ideas?" Shangguanjing turned to ask Qu Jingwu: "Everyone thinks that if they work hard enough to leave the palace, there will be a good way out."

"It's natural." Qu Jingwu replied: "Our royal guards have regular promotions. If you do a good job as a errand and your qualifications go up, you can't suffer. We follow His Royal Highness and Empress, and we also believe that we will leave the palace in the future. The empress will find a good way out for us. The two of them were born as noble children, so no matter what happens in the future, they will not suffer."

"What about you, Master Qu?" Shangguanjing asked again.

"Although this subordinate has no background, as the chief guard of the Eastern Palace, this subordinate is already on a fifth-rank salary." Qu Jingwu replied matter-of-factly: "In the future, even if the Ministry of War considers His Royal Highness and Empress's face, they will at least be able to do so." Arrange for the subordinates to serve in the fourth-rank army, but it is hard to say where to serve."

"Master Qu, didn't you find it strange when you saw Zheng Yi's resume before?" Shangguanjing asked again.

"It's very strange." Qu Jingwu replied: "With his background, as long as he stays in the palace steadily until he leaves the palace, even if he is not outstanding, he will be arranged for a good place, at least not worse than his current position. .He hastily applied for transfer to the Imperial Forest Army, and tossed such a big circle. It would be too far-fetched to say that he was for the future. The subordinates think he is a bit like..."

"Like what?" Shangguanjing asked sharply: "Like avoiding disaster? Because I heard something I shouldn't hear, or I saw something I shouldn't see, so I was really disturbed, so I hurriedly applied for a transfer out of the palace, with a stable future. Don’t even dare to ask for it, do you?”

"After all, it happened 20 years ago, and my subordinates are also guessing." Qu Jingwu replied: "Zheng Yi has only served in the Royal Guard for seven years. According to the calculation of the number of years, when he left the palace, he was at most only a seventh-rank title. Let the subordinates only consider the interests to choose, and being on duty in the Imperial Forest Army is far less secure and comfortable than being in the Royal Guards, and there is not much guarantee of whether they can be promoted."

Shangguanjing nodded, without saying anything, first sent Qu Jingwu and others away, and when they were all gone, only the young couple were left in the room, Shangguanjing said again: "I guess it is him. He was in the house back then. The palace accidentally learned that the child in the womb of Princess Su was actually the emperor's. Knowing such a royal secret, Zheng Yi must have been uneasy, so he gave up his stable military position in the palace and chose to be transferred to the Imperial Forest Army. Later I went to the Western Army again and met my father."

　---Here is the dividing line of Marquis Wu Ding's ability--
　　The secret that Zheng Yi had hidden for so many years was actually dug out by Marquis Wu Ding. Could he not be very capable?
　　Thanks to Perak, Yun Qingqing, the whole city loves oo, and Wu Ying for the daily small fish dry! !
