Chapter 74 Go home and take a look
They looked at each other in shock. If all four of them weren't there, they would have doubted whether their ears were hallucinating.

The eldest princess is aloof and only has eyes for the son-in-law. Who really cares about the day of their humble personal guards?
The four were flattered, and even Luda, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help swallowing nervously.

Seeing the expressions of the four people, Qin Shuhuang knew that they hadn't reacted for a while, so he waved to Ruihe who was behind him, "The armor on your body is old, you take these armors and distribute them to your subordinates. Yes. In the future, in the Princess Palace, as long as they are the personal guards of the palace, they will have a set of armor for a year, and they will wear it for four seasons. In addition, this is 250 taels of silver, of which ten taels will be shared equally by the four of you, and the rest will be shared equally. These days, I have worked hard for you, and these are extra rewards. If there are guards who want to go home and have a look, you guys will take turns to arrange shifts for them, as long as it does not affect the usual guard work."

Qin Shuhuang went straight to the point and told them everything.

The four of them seemed to be hit by a big pie, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

It was Luda who reacted the fastest, and said incoherently, "Your Highness won't punish us? Your Highness, I want to join the army! Start as a soldier, earn military merit by killing enemies, and become a general..." Army... um...

Di Jin didn't expect this brother to be so impulsive. Before Lu Da finished speaking, Di Jin covered his mouth. Di Jin explained to Qin Shuhuang in embarrassment, "Your Highness, this kid is a muscle. What to say. Don't worry, this year we will do our best to guard the Princess Palace and protect Your Highness!"

Qin Shuhuang smiled a little, "Okay, it's okay, it's good to have ideas, don't worry, you can use this year to think carefully, whether you leave or stay, this palace will not treat you badly."

The four of them stood in a row and saluted Qin Shuhuang in unison to thank him.

This salute is the first sincere salute in several years.

At this moment, they really had a sense of belonging and identity with the personal guard camp of the Princess's Mansion.

After thanking him, Lu Da, Di Jin and the others called the brothers to come in and move the new armor.

Shilan was helping at the side. Seeing that Shilan was struggling to move, He Yutian hurried over to take the armor, blushing and softly instructed, "We men can carry these rough things, and girls can just rest on the side."

After Shi Lan took the heavy armor from her arms, she blinked at He Yutian with her big eyes open.

I had never paid much attention to He Yutian before, but I suddenly noticed that this boy seemed to have grown much taller, and his face had become more angular, giving him the appearance of a young man.

He Yutian's face turned even redder when he saw it, and soon his neck turned red.

Rui He, who was passing by, laughed, and said: "Captain He was only 15 years old when he was rewarded by the emperor to be the captain of the personal guard. Three years have passed, and he has gained more than one head. Now he is taller than Captain Lu. You didn't recognize him all of a sudden." It's normal to come out."

Shi Lan stuck out her tongue, "No wonder I don't even recognize the change."

The eldest of Qin Shuhuang's maids, Ruihe Ruimiao, is the same age as Qin Shuhuang, twenty-one, and Shilan Shiyu is two years younger, nineteen this year.

Calculated to be one year older than He Yutian.

He Yutian was a little shorter than Shilan when he was working next to Qin Shuhuang, but now he is more than a head taller than Shilan, and has grown from an immature boy to a tall and strong young man.

Qin Shuhuang did not stop the maids from contacting the captain of the personal guard.

Once again, she hopes that the maids around her can also have their own lives.

Not far away, Xuancang watched what Qin Shuhuang was doing in the flower hall.

The heat in his eyes became more intense. His highness the princess had grown up, she was more thoughtful in doing things, and she was more attractive to him.

Xuan Cang felt that at this moment he was just a moth jumping towards the fire, knowing that he would be wiped out if he jumped into the fire, but he couldn't help it no matter what.

Returning to the courtyard where the guards lived, Lu Da, Zhai Jin and other four captains of the guards handed out the armor and money rewarded by Qin Shuhuang.

The guard camp suddenly became happy.

And because Qin Shuhuang gave him a vacation to go home to visit relatives, Lu Da, who was eager for his wife and son, was the first to ask for leave to go home to visit his wife and children.

He specially changed into the newly issued soft armor, and left the Princess's mansion with the four taels of silver he received in his arms.

Lu Da and his wife are childhood sweethearts, and his wife Jiji has been with him since she was 15 years old.

Both of them had no father or mother, so Luda simply took his wife to live in Beijing.

After entering Beijing, he met Zhai Jin, and then he stepped into the palace and became a personal guard.

It's just that he entered the palace as a guard, and his wife could only live outside the palace alone.

For his wife's safety, Ruda asked her to stay with a fellow villager.

How could he have thought that this fellow from the same country had a ulterior motive, and while his wife was not paying attention, he stole the body that he and his wife had accumulated over the years and ran away secretly.

The money was stolen, and the wife felt guilty and fell ill.

He originally thought of resigning from his job as a bodyguard and finding another way out in Beijing, but when Qin Shuhuang got married, he became Qin Shuhuang's bodyguard, and could go home from time to time to take care of his wife outside the palace.

Feeling guilty that his sick wife happened to be pregnant at this time and her health was deteriorating, Ruda had no choice but to borrow money from Zhai Jin to treat his wife and keep the fetus in her belly.

Fortunately, there was no danger, and the wife successfully gave birth to a son. However, due to poor health during pregnancy, the root cause of the disease was caused, and she needed to take medicine every month to support her.

Ruda's salary as a personal guard is actually quite a lot compared to that of ordinary people. He saved some money and saved up over the years. It was enough for Ruda's family to buy a small courtyard in Beijing. However, an accident happened and his wife always needed to take medicine. , the money Ruda earned after repaying Zhai Jin was enough for the family.

Previously, the money was deducted from the Gu family, and his wife almost ran out of medicine.

Counting the days, his wife's medicine is gone today. He is anxious to go home to give money to his wife. After buying the medicine, there is still some extra. He plans to change his wife's son's residence. The large courtyard where people live in order to save money can't be mixed. continue to live.

Thinking of this, his steps became faster, and he wished his feet had wings and flew to his wife and son in an instant.

For more than half an hour, Ruda finally arrived at the gate of the courtyard where his wife and son lived in Xicheng.

More than a dozen families lived in the courtyard, and the courtyard door was open day and night, so there was no need to knock on the door.

He strode into the yard and walked towards a small door at the end.

Lu Da's wife was alone with her son and had previous experience, so she acted more cautiously and kept a low profile. If it was not necessary during the day, she would close the door, and she would not open the door when most people knocked.

Lu Da excitedly walked to the door, and just as he was about to knock on the door, the old wooden door was opened from the inside.

What came out was an old woman with a stooped body.

The old woman looked up and was startled to see the tall military man in soft armor in front of her, "You, who are you, and what are you doing in front of my house!"
