Chapter 605: Some Arrangements for Guards

Chapter 605: Some Arrangements for Guards

Perhaps, for some people of high status and position, there is nothing strange about being a palace maid.

After all, it's just working in the palace.

With a clean background and good looks, and after training in the palace, you can work honestly in the palace.

But for most people, she is a palace maid, and a senior palace maid at that.

That's so rare!

Normally, palace maids who were released from the palace would be quickly invited back by wealthy families to be housekeepers or concubines, or invited back by smaller families to be the main wives.

Because since these people were able to enter the palace and then leave it, it proved that not only did they have a clean family background, but they also had the means and ability to get through the palace smoothly and be released from the palace.

This kind of knowledge, this kind of ability, and the bearing cultivated by various royal rules are liked by all families, no matter which family it is.

And now, there are a bunch of them in the Friends Hall!
And these palace maids who were released from the palace were very willing to come to the Huiyou Hall to "work".

They are just serving people, and the people they serve are officials and their wives. This won't make them lose face too much!
At the same time, the two salaries, one large and one small, from the Huiyou Hall and the Jinyiwei, added together, would allow them to save up a considerable dowry even if they got married.

After all, although Master Hu was a bit unkind in the way he ordered people around, he was happy to give them money.

Therefore, these "old palace maids", who are actually just in their twenties or even less than twenty years old, are doing a very successful job in the Huiyou Hall.

Many people even thought that it would not be impossible to find a suitable husband there.

Besides, many people also have this in mind.

She first stayed in the palace for a few years, and then stayed with Master Hu for a while. If she was lucky, wouldn't she be able to have some connection with both sides?
Even if the relationship is not very close, the same thing still applies: if there is a reason, everything will be easy to follow up.

With the help of this favorable trend arranged by Mr. Hu, the Huiyou Hall has completely taken off.

Your other food, mahjong, venues, connections, etc. can all be compared to it.

But what about this?

How do you compare?
This means more than just hiring some palace maids.

The most important thing is that it means that Mr. Zhu already knows about this place and has let it go!

This attitude alone was enough to make those officials who used to live in fear but tacitly made a little money from the merchants cheer.

With such a career in mind, it would be strange for Ru Shi and Wan Ru to leave.

Even if Wanru is not as dedicated to her career as Rushi, Rushi is extremely busy. Can Wanru really just abandon her job?

You know, both of them will get a share of the money.

Therefore, after Master Hu finally settled all the things in the mansion, Master Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's finally quiet.

However, precisely because Nana and Qiuyue were going to come along, the standards for this trip were raised again.

Master Hu didn't care. He just strolled over to the Jinyiwei.

The Jinyiwei headquarters, which was avoided by others, was a joke in the eyes of Mr. Hu.

As long as Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to kill him, the Jinyiwei would not dare to touch a hair on his head.

But if Old Zhu really gets upset and wants to attack him one day, what can he and the Jinyiwei do if they can avoid him?
So, when the Hu family's carriage stopped in front of the Jinyiwei headquarters under the watchful eyes of a group of Jinyiwei, Master Hu walked down from the carriage leisurely. His attitude and demeanor were just like he was returning home.

I originally wanted to see who was the blind man who came to show off his arrogance in front of the Jinyiwei gate, but after seeing Master Hu getting off the car, they immediately bent down, hunched their backs, and shrank their necks. It was so neat.

"Hey, Master Hu, why are you here?"

The person in charge of guarding the gate of the Jinyiwei today is a captain named Li Fulu, who is also a veteran of the Jinyiwei.

Because of this, he knows better than the average newcomer who he can offend and who he cannot offend.

Look, seeing that it was Master Hu who appeared, his attitude, which was filled with righteous indignation just now, became the most flattering.

It turns out that Mr. Hu really knows this Li Fulu.

After all, he was a well-known smart man in the Jinyiwei. Although his fighting ability was not very good and he was afraid of death, which resulted in him missing many opportunities to make meritorious deeds, he lived a long life.

Not only live longer but also live more peacefully.

Thinking of this, Mr. Hu raised his eyebrows and waved at Li Fulu.

Li Fulu was immediately delighted, and quickly trotted over to Master Hu, bending over to listen to his instructions.

Mr. Hu smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"There's no need to be so servile in front of me!"

"Let me ask you first, is Mao Xiang in there?"

"Replying to Master Hu, the commander is doing his job in here today!"

Although Li Fulu is like a bootlicker, he is very steady when it comes to specific matters.

Even these words were well-balanced.

As soon as you hear him, you can tell that he is definitely a veteran in the government.

However, this is what Master Hu valued. He nodded, looked ahead and said softly.

"Well, I told His Majesty to ask for a leave to go out for a walk."

"Your Majesty was worried that I was unsafe, so he asked me to pick some people from the Imperial Guard."

"You seem quite clever. Are you willing to take the trouble?"

"Master Hu, I will be your constant escort!"

As expected of a smart man, he agreed on the spot without any hesitation.

It was this decisiveness that made Master Hu smile and give one more instruction.

"Well, I like smart people!"

"You are a smart one, so find someone to do the work!"

"Just one hundred households will do!"

"Then each of you should bring a small flag and follow me!"

"Just help me choose the other centurion!"

After hearing what Master Hu said, Li Fulu immediately knelt on one knee and saluted with his fists.

"Thank you, Master Hu!"

They are all smart people. They know how much favor and benefit there is here without even having to explain it.

Moreover, this is no longer a question of promotion or wealth.

This seemed to be just the guard for Mr. Hu to go out for a stroll.

But in fact, this gentleman said right from the start that this matter had been reviewed by His Majesty.

This Jinyiwei was also sent by Your Majesty.

That means that the itinerary from now on must be under the attention of His Majesty.

Regardless of whether it is a credit or not, you can’t escape the hard work.

The most important thing is, taking advantage of this trip, they were able to get in touch with Master Hu.

Not to mention being able to rise to the top in the future, at least you won’t be bullied by ordinary people.

Just for this benefit, Li Fulu's own benefit plus the benefit of recommending another person, the favor involved is huge.

When Master Hu saw that the other party understood, he smiled and nodded, then walked closer to the headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!
