Qin Shi: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 212

"Central Guardian Army? What is the position of the Central Guardian Army?" Zhao Ji looked at Qin Wangzheng who came from Xianyang Palace, and asked in surprise.

Qin Wangzheng heard that Rao Yi's city mansion couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes at this time, Zhao Ji didn't even know how important the Central Guard was.

"The Central Guard Army is affiliated to the Guard Army Duwei's Mansion, and assists the Guard Army Duwei Mansion to preside over the selection of military officers, supervise and control the generals, and can control the Forbidden Army." Qin Wangzheng explained.

"Your Majesty is talking about the Captain of the Guarding Army. The family knows this position, but why not directly appoint Yang Ming as the Captain of the Guarding Army, but the Central Guarding Army instead?" Zhao Ji asked rhetorically.

Zhao Ji knew the position of captain of the guard, and knew the importance of this position. It can be said that in the army, the importance of captain of the guard is by no means inferior to any official position. It is a position of real weight in the three armed forces. After all, the army is only a deputy, and its power is undoubtedly greatly reduced compared to the captain of the guard army.

"My queen, there is currently no one to hold the position of Captain of the Guarding Army. If Yang Ming is in the Central Guarding Army, then he is the person with the highest official position in the Commandant of the Guarding Army." Qin Wangzheng explained.

"No one is serving as the captain of the guard. This position is so important, why is no one taking it?" Zhao Ji asked, she wanted to find a good position for Yang Ming, not to cheat Yang Ming, the captain of the guard is in the army Why is no one in charge of such great power? Could there be something hidden in it?
"It is precisely because he is too important that no one can take up the position for the time being. To take up this position requires not only enough military achievements, but also enough extensive contacts. However, people with such military achievements and connections often do not want to take up this position. , because the best way to obtain meritorious service is military service, and the captain of the guard army does not go out to fight, which blocks their chances to continue to obtain military service." Qin Wangzheng said.

"Then isn't this position just looking glamorous on the surface? Isn't the Central Guard Army it belongs to even less popular?" Zhao Ji hesitated.

Although she believed that Qin Wangzheng would not cheat her mother, but from the performance, it seemed that she was really cheating.

"It's hard for the captain of the Chinese army to move lightly, but the Chinese guards don't have such a taboo." Qin Wangzheng explained, but in his heart, he couldn't help finding doubts again: Zhao Ji cared too much for Yang Ming. You know, in the past six years, Zhao Ji has never shown such a caring attitude towards anyone.

"Moreover, the Central Guard Army can be in charge of the Forbidden Army, and you know, Queen Mother, that now in Xianyang, all the armies belong to the Weiwei, Lieutenant, and Langzhong Lingfu. The Forbidden Army has not been set up for more than 20 years. Start to reorganize the imperial army." Qin Wangzheng said.

"Forbidden Army?" Zhao Ji mused. The Forbidden Army was the most powerful army in Qin during the reign of Queen Mother Xuan. One reason is that one of the four nobles is in charge of the Forbidden Army.

It can be said that once the Forbidden Army is established according to its proper organization, it will be enough to become the most powerful army in Xianyang, even above the Weiwei Mansion and the Zhongwei Mansion.

Qin Wangzheng looked at Zhao Ji who was in deep thought, and didn't say anything more. He believed that Zhao Ji would accept his proposal.

The position of the Central Guard Army was the best answer Qin Wangzheng got after thinking about it for several days. With Yang Ming's military achievements, it is more than enough to hold this position. Yang Ming is also a person who belongs to Zhao Ji. , Yang Ming can slow down Lu Buwei's expansion of power, and in Xianyang, the imperial guards under the command of the Central Guard can divide the forces of Weiwei Mansion, Zhongwei Mansion, and Lang Zhongling who are not under his control.

You know, Yang Ming is almost completely tied to Zhao Ji's body, and it is impossible for him to cooperate with other forces.

According to the political situation of Qin State at this time, Qin Wangzheng wants to be in charge of the government, and it will be very troublesome to take back power. However, Qin Wangzheng can still play a big role in the separation of powers. The separation of powers can create checks and balances. Political talents have more opportunities to move around.

"That's really good. If that's the case, then so be it, Central Guardian Army, it sounds pretty good." Zhao Ji said.

Hearing Zhao Ji's answer, a faint smile appeared on Qin Wangzheng's face. With Zhao Ji's acquiescence, the possibility of success is almost [-]%. In exchange for benefits, he will agree.

At the same time, in the Huayang Palace, Mrs. Mi, the wife of the King of Qin, brought Fusu, the eldest son of the King of Qin, who had just passed the full moon, as a guest here.

Although the two women, Madam Mi and Empress Dowager Huayang, were looking at the baby in their arms, there was another man between their words.

"Central Guardian Army, this position is not bad." The Empress Dowager Huayang said.

Lu Buwei of the Xiangguo Mansion also got hints from Zhao Ji soon after.

"Central Guardian Army, this is definitely not something that Queen Mother Zhao can think of. The person who can think of this position is Yang Ming or our king?" Lu Buwei fell into deep thought as he read the letter from Ganquan Palace. among.

"Father, shall we agree to this matter?" Lu Qi asked.

"Yes, why not? Besides, is our opposition important?" Lu Buwei asked rhetorically.

"The position of the Central Guard is of great importance, and it fell into Yang Ming's hands?" Lu Qi had a worried look on his face.

"Recently, Empress Dowager Xia and Lord Chang'an have made a lot of moves. According to reports, there has also been movement on the clan's side." Lu Buwei said.

"The Clan?" Lu Qi heard the words, and his expression couldn't help but look serious. The power of the Clan is not weak in the Qin State. Although it is no longer the power it used to be after being suppressed by King Qin Zhaoxiang in the later period, it is still a huge force. For Lu Buwei Such outsiders are in charge of military and political power, and those clans have always had great opinions.

"So, if the position of the Central Guard Army does not fall on Yang Ming, it is very likely that it will fall on the clan, or even someone like Chang'an Jun. Instead of that, it is better to give it to Yang Ming, Yang Ming Although they are not our people, at least within a few years, they will not be our enemies." Lu Buwei said.

The political situation of the Qin State has always been very interesting. For example, the prime ministers of the Qin State in the past dynasties were rarely natives of the Qin State. From Shang Yang and Zhang Yi at the beginning, to Fan Wei, Cai Ze, and even the current Lu Buwei, although there were some willingness to There are a few such as Mao and Yingji, but those who have served as the prime minister of Qin for a long time are mostly people from the six kingdoms of Shandong.

Of course, there are some mysterious reasons.

"The clan is about to move, and we also need some allies who can fight against the clan, instead of letting us bear the pressure from the clan alone." Lu Buwei said inscrutablely.

At this time, Yang Ming, who had just arrived in Xingyang, had no idea that so many stories surrounding his position had already happened before he returned to Xianyang.

At this time, Yang Ming and the army under his command were repairing in Xingyang, preparing to return to Guanzhong after replenishing food and grass.

On the streets of Xingyang, Yang Ming walked alone on the streets, appreciating the atmosphere of the world here. During the long march, although Yang Ming did not consume much physical strength, he was still a little tired mentally. Given the opportunity of Xingyang's correction, Yang Ming naturally wanted to come out and relax.

However, it seems that Xingyang City is a little too lively.

On the street, there was a figure running wildly from a distance, and behind her, there were more than a dozen sturdy servants of a big family who were chasing crazily. Fortunately, that figure was extremely flexible, shuttling back and forth among the crowd, He even left the people behind him farther and farther away.

Looking at the girl who was coming towards him, Yang Ming couldn't help but focus on the girl's rather flexible waist, a string of very beautiful waist ornaments.

"Linglong Pei?" Thinking of that narrow-minded woman Zi Nu, the name of the string of waist ornaments came to Yang Ming's mind.

At that time, Zi Nu personally wove a similar waist ornament for Yang Ming.

Thinking that Zi Nu might be in this city, Yang Ming's heart became uncontrollably hot, and he hadn't seen that woman for a long time.

Seeing the direction in which the girl disappeared, Yang Ming followed her with strides. What are Zi Nu's people doing in Xingyang City at Zi Lan Xuan in Xinzheng?
The girl's lightness skills are obviously good. In the busy city, after turning a few streets, she threw away the pursuers.

Cai Die looked at the wall, panting violently. She never expected that those people would be so shameless. Those who had clearly agreed on a good price to redeem people would go back on their word after paying the money. Not only would they not let them go, they would also Bite back that she stole something from their house, and wanted to arrest her and bring her to the court.

Thinking of Sister Zi Nu's entrustment to her before she left, Cai Die's slightly heroic brows showed worry.

What should we do about this matter?Although I know martial arts, it's not enough to save people, so why don't I just go back to see Sister Zi Nu?For a moment, Caidie only felt in a dilemma, and didn't even notice that there was a person beside her.

"Are you from Zilanxuan?" Yang Ming looked at the girl in front of him and asked.

"Who are you?" Hearing the sudden voice beside her, Cai Die took a few steps back and looked at Yang Ming vigilantly, with her palms already grabbing the silver hairpin in her hair.

"You Linglongpei are good at weaving. Did Zi Nu give it to you, or did she teach you to weave it?" Yang Ming asked.

"You, do you know Sister Zi Nu?" Cai Die asked suspiciously, a sentence of Linglong Pei was enough to convince her that the man in front of her must know Sister Zi Nu, but she didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend.

"I know, is she in Xingyang?" Yang Ming asked.

"Not here." Caidie denied.

"Not here." Yang Ming showed a disappointed expression when he heard the words. There is no such thing as a coincidence in the world. The so-called unexpected encounter is really too difficult.

"What happened to you, why did those people chase you?" Yang Ming put away his disappointment and said, since it is Zi Nu's person, if he can help, Yang Ming will of course do it, after all, Zi Nu is his People, and Zi Nu's people are also considered to be their own people, and there is no problem with the logic.

Cai Die looked at Yang Ming suspiciously, as if she was considering Yang Ming's reliability.
