Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 31
Emperor Xiaokang sat blankly behind the Long Bookcase, looking confused, not knowing what to do?
After a long time, Emperor Xiaokang's pale face moved, and he said to Feng Rui below: "Since the Supreme Emperor has spared your errand, you can go back and rest for a while, and I will make an order to arrange an official for you in a few days." Son."

Feng Rui, who was kneeling below, raised his head and quietly glanced at Emperor Xiaokang, "I understand."

After saying this, he kowtowed with a gloomy expression.

Emperor Xiaokang closed his eyes and waved, and Feng Rui thanked him again, and then bowed his body and left the Qianqing Palace.

When he arrived outside the Qianqing Palace, he looked at the guards guarding the Qianqing Palace with reluctance in his eyes.

It's not that he has any feelings for these guards, the main reason is that these people were all his team members in the past, and they were the foundation for him to stand in the court, and now the Supreme Emperor's order belongs to others.

Just like that, he came back to Qianqingmen with a high-spirited expression.

Just when he was absent-minded, a voice came from beside him.

"Master Feng, hand over the token before leaving."

After Feng Rui heard this, he acted cleverly, and immediately woke up.

He looked up and saw that it was a dragon captain who had followed Jia Rui and was talking to him.

This person is Ma Tao.

It turned out that after Feng Rui left just now, Jia Rui summoned all the households in Qianqingmen.

These people can be regarded as the main force of the emperor's bodyguards, and most of them were selected by Emperor Xiaokang himself.

Therefore, among the dozen or so guards, only four or five truly showed respect to Jia Rui.

However, Jia Rui is now the legitimate leader of the Qianqing Sect, so he does not want to coddle these people who are disrespectful to him.

He lost his temper on the spot, and even two rebellious Baihu were beaten.

If it was a case of being beaten among civil servants, this kind of thing would not happen. Even if the two sides fought to the death, at most they would act in secret.

But in the guarding of the Qianqingmen, they practiced military law, disrespecting their superiors, and being beaten with a board was light.

Not only that, these hundreds of households who were slapped were fired by Jia Rui on the spot, and then their deputy took over.

At this moment, the other white households also became quiet, and their eyes showed awe of Jia Rui.

This is what Jia Rui wanted. As for whether these people really obeyed him, Jia Rui didn't care at all.

I just took office, if these hundred households are really convinced, that would be a strange thing.

Just when Jia Rui thought he had taken over the guards of the Qianqing Gate and was about to go back and report to the Supreme Emperor, a clever Baihu stepped forward and bowed his hands in salute.

"Hundreds of households, Cheng Bin, report something to your lord."

Jia Rui stopped in his tracks, glanced at this person, and found that this person was handsome and looked like a person with a good personality.

"Cheng Baihu, let's talk about it."

Cheng Bin took a step forward, and then said: "My lord, Feng Rui, the commander in chief, still wears the badge for entering and leaving the Forbidden Palace, should he take it back?"

Jia Rui was stunned for a moment, "What's going on with this waist card?"

After Cheng Bin's explanation, Jia Rui finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that the waist badge of the Wenmen Guard Commander of the Qianqing Dynasty was bestowed by the emperors of the past dynasties, and the guard commanders of the Qianqing Dynasty can enter the palace at any time to protect the safety of the emperor.

It is also the identity symbol of the guard commander of the Qianqing Gate and the source of his power.

This is because Jia Rui doesn't know much about court officials and their rights, so he just let Feng Rui fool him.

If you really understand the cause and effect of the official position of guarding the Qianqing Gate, the first thing you need to do is to ask Feng Rui for this token.

After understanding the cause and effect, Jia Rui narrowed his eyes, and then looked carefully at Cheng Bin in front of him.

This person reminds himself now, it seems that he wants to get closer to himself.

In this case, temporarily take him under his command. As for whether to pull him in in the future, it depends on this person's loyalty.

Therefore, a smile appeared on Jia Rui's face, "Cheng Baihu is loyal to his duty, I have recorded this matter, and there will be rewards in the future."

After saying this, Jia Rui turned his head and looked at Ma Tao who was following him.

"Go to the door and wait for Mr. Cheng to come out, and ask him for his badge."

After Ma Tao heard this, he immediately ran away with two or three Long Jinwei.

Just like this, Jia Rui sat in the room, with a dozen or so households standing on both sides in silence.

It wasn't until about two sticks of incense passed that Ma Tao returned to the room.

"Sir, the belt badge has been brought back."

After saying this, he held up a golden waist badge with both hands.

The witty Captain Long, who was beside him, hurried forward to hold the badge, and presented it to Jia Rui.

Jia Rui took the waist card, examined it carefully, and found that there was nothing unusual about the waist card, it was just golden in color, with the words "Commander of the Qianqing Gate" chiseled on the front, and a four-clawed one on the back. python dragon.

Jia Rui put the badge back into his arms, then stretched slightly, stood up and said to the white households below:
"That's all for today, I'll come over to inspect tomorrow."

After saying this, Jia Rui walked out of the house, but stopped after two steps, rolled his eyes and said:

"The position of Qianqing Gate is important. In this case, Cheng Bin will be on duty instead of me. If there is anything to tell Cheng Bin in advance, if he can't be the master, then tell me."

Cheng Bin, standing in the ranks of hundreds of households, was ecstatic when he heard Jia Rui's words.

Jia Rui's meaning was very clear, that is to let him temporarily take charge of the Qianqing Sect instead of him. This is almost Jia Rui's deputy.

If things go on like this, if Master Jia in front of him is promoted to another level, then the post of commander of the Qianqingmen will definitely fall on him.

Therefore, Cheng Bin stepped forward excitedly, knelt down in front of Jia Rui, and kowtowed three times.

"The humble job will definitely live up to Mr. Jia's expectations, work hard, and keep the door clean for Mr. Jia."

Haha, this guy is interesting, keep the door clean for yourself?
Although this sentence was a bit presumptuous, Jia Rui still accepted it with a smile, then turned and left the room, passed through the Qianqing Palace, and went straight to the Dragon Head Palace to reply to the Supreme Emperor.

However, on the way back to Dragon's Head Palace, Jia Rui suddenly had a clever idea.

I was a little swollen just now.

Jia Rui made an evaluation of his performance just now.

This must never happen again in the future.

He let out a long breath, then held his head high again, and brought Captain Long to appear in front of the gate of Longshou Palace.

When we got here, naturally the little eunuch quickly informed the inside, and soon the Supreme Emperor passed down the decree to let Jia Rui in.

After Jia Rui adjusted his clothes, he entered the side hall of Longshou Palace.

"Is the reception going well?"

Just as Jia Rui stood up, the Supreme Emperor who was sitting on the kang had already asked questions.

"If we go back to the Supreme Emperor, the reception will go smoothly."

"There is no message from the emperor, do you want to have an audience?"

"Returning to the words of the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor's order has no decree to pass on."

The Supreme Emperor put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "It seems that the Emperor doesn't want to see you!"

What can Jerry say now?He could only stand there with an awkward smile on his face.

"But don't be afraid, just do your job with peace of mind. If anything happens, I will stand up for you."

Jia Rui hurriedly fell to his knees and thanked him, "I thank the Supreme Emperor for his kindness."

The Supreme Emperor nodded lightly, then waved his hand, Jia Rui hurriedly bowed, and respectfully exited the side hall of the Dragon Head Palace.

Dai Quan, who had just come outside and had not shown up, appeared in front of Jia Rui.

"Congratulations, Lord Jia, congratulations, Lord Jia."

Jia Rui didn't dare to underestimate Dai Quan in the slightest.

He hastened to salute, "It's a small matter, Nei Xiang is really polite."

Dai Quan smiled slightly, pulled Jia Rui to a secluded place, and said in a low voice: "The emperor's order came from the emperor's side, to rest at Dongnuange today."
