Established a thousand-year family from the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 41 Changzhi Joins the Army ([-])
Two years later

Han Jianyuan two years

In the past two years, the big man has been in a state of turmoil, and it is no longer as peaceful as when Emperor Jing was recuperating.

First, the emperor issued an order to seek talents as soon as he came to the throne, asking the various counties to recommend talents, and reuse these talents, and gradually alienated those veterans of the previous dynasty.

Secondly, the four auxiliary ministers all advocated the Confucian policy of respecting the emperor, but the Empress Dowager Dou and the princes and kings still stubbornly adhered to the Huang-Lao school's policy of emptiness. People advocated the Huang-Lao doctrine of the separation of powers. Under mutual disputes, Empress Dowager Dou won the victory. Four assistant ministers, two of Zhang Wan and Wang Zang committed suicide, and the other two chose to "voluntarily" resign and return to their hometowns. .

Following Prime Minister Dou Ying's "voluntary" resignation, Xu Chang was appointed as the new prime minister.

At the same time, Zhang Qian was ordered to go to the Western Regions, with the purpose of finding a force called Da Yuezhi, and wanted to form an alliance with this force to counterattack the Xiongnu together.

In order to further consolidate his power, the young emperor Liu Che first attacked the Shaofu, who was in charge of finance in Jiuqingzhong, and forcibly dismissed many old ministers in the Shaofu for various inexplicable reasons. In the mansion, so as to control the money bag of the big man.

At the same time, by controlling the Shaofu, he used the money bag of the Shaofu to cultivate a personal army team exclusively for the emperor, which is the Imperial Guard of Shanglinyuan.

Anyone who can enter Shanglinyuan is the emperor's confidant, and is valued by the emperor. With such attention, the Shanglinyuan Imperial Guard has also become the officer teaching group of the Han Dynasty, and those who serve as soldiers in the Shanglinyuan Imperial Guard are also called Qi Menlang. .

……

At this moment, Shanglin Garden

A riding and archery competition is underway.

Two young men on war horses are chasing a group of wild beasts, and those who shoot and kill more beasts will be rewarded.

"Wei Zhongqing, I will not lose to you!"

The former Wang Changzhi was riding a horse, drawing a bow and arrow, aiming at a scurrying wild boar in front of him, but then hesitated, and instead aimed at a slower running elk next to him, as if he was hunting and killing in Liaodong many years ago. As before, it was always easier to succeed in hunting weaker targets.

Since joining Shanglinyuan, such competitions have been held every month in the barracks to encourage soldiers to train harder.

In this month's competition, after rounds of elimination, only Wang Changzhi and Wei Qing were left to fight.

Wang Changzhi, who practiced riding and shooting skills in Liaodong since he was a child, soon became a leader in Shanglin Garden. The only ones who could teach him were Zhang Cigong who came with him, and Wei Qingwei Zhongqing who came in through the back door.

At first, Wang Changzhi looked down on Wei Qing, thinking that Wei Qing was only able to enter Shanglin Garden through the back door because his sister Wei Zifu was the emperor's concubine.

However, after several months of getting along, Wang Changzhi also discovered that Wei Qing was simply a military genius.

When he first entered Shanglinyuan, Wang Changzhi could temporarily suppress Wei Qing by relying on his years of experience in riding and archery in Liaodong. shooting ability.

The rookie who only entered Shanglinyuan through the back door a few months ago is now stronger than him, which he is not convinced no matter what.

call out!
Wang Changzhi shot an arrow, and the running elk fell down immediately.

"it is good!"

The other soldiers onlookers clapped their hands and praised, Zhang Cigong was the loudest among them. They have been playmates since they were young, and now they entered the Shanglin Garden together and became the emperor's personal soldiers.

"As expected of a child taught by Li Shizhong himself, he is indeed very talented." Da Xingling Wang Hui, who was in charge of training the soldiers of Shanglinyuan, admired him very much, stroking his goatee and smiling all over his face.

And the Li Shizhong he was talking about was Li Xi, a member of the royal family who was recommended to the imperial court by the Liaodong County Government two years ago.

Originally, the purpose of Li Xi's joining the army was to protect Wang Changzhi, the young king of the Wang family. Who would have thought that because of his extraordinary riding and shooting skills, he would be appreciated by the emperor, and he would be directly promoted from an ordinary soldier in Shanglinyuan to a servant. Become a confidant who accompanies the emperor at all times.

Wang Changzhi, who hit the target, looked proudly at Wei Qing on the other side, only to see Wei Qing calmly aiming at a wild boar running wildly.

Although they are all prey, wild boars, which are more difficult to shoot, obviously show off their riding and shooting skills.

"So far? Want to shoot that wild boar? Hehe!" Wang Changzhi felt that Wei Qing must be crazy, and it was impossible to shoot in this situation.

however……

call out!
ow~~
The wild boar was shot by an arrow and fell to the ground howling.

"Brother You'an, let me go." Wei Qing smiled and bowed to the stunned Wang Changzhi.

You'an is Wang Changzhi's nickname, which was taken by Wang Tairan, the head of the Wang family, for him when he became an adult.

"This Wei Zhongqing... will definitely be the pillar of my man in the future!" Wang Hui, who was watching the game, was also shocked, and the palms stroking the goatee stopped.

"Congratulations, brother Zhongqing, I'm not very good at learning." Wang Changzhi was completely convinced, and he couldn't help it. Wei Qing, who was only one year younger than him, was a weirdo. A few months ago, this Wei Qing couldn't even ride a horse. Yes, even the first contact with a war horse, and now he has won the game openly and aboveboard.

At this moment, a messenger came to Wang Hui's side and whispered in his ear.

After hearing a few words, Wang Hui shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that a talent like Wei Qing doesn't stay in Shanglinyuan."

Then, after ordering the soldiers to say a few more words, Wang Hui finally had no choice but to look at Wei Qing who was being thrown into the sky by the soldiers to celebrate winning the No.1 competition, and finally shouted to Wei Qing: "Wei Zhongqing!"

Hearing the Da Xing Ling shouting, all the soldiers stopped, Wei Qing also respectfully stood in place and saluted Wang Hui: "Wei Qing is here."

"From now on, you..." Wang Hui wanted to say it, but he was very reluctant to let such a person leave, but this was the emperor's order after all, so he finally said it: "From now on, you will not use it to go to Linyuan .”

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of all the people present did not understand why, and their faces changed greatly. They thought that Wei Qing had offended the Da Xing Order, so he was going to be expelled from Shanglin Garden by Da Xing Order Wang Hui, so they all pleaded for Wei Qing.

Even Wang Changzhi, who had just lost in the competition, and Zhang Cigong, Wang Changzhi's good brother, stood up and interceded for Wei Qing: "I don't know what Wei Zhongqing committed, and you want to expel him from Shanglin Garden?"

Wei Qing also looked at Wang Hui in puzzlement, clenched his hands into fists, he didn't understand that he had worked so hard and was so talented, why was he still expelled from Shanglin Garden? Don't you have a little bit of early life?
"Uh...hahaha!" Wang Hui understood that everyone misunderstood what he meant, so he stroked his goatee and explained to everyone with a smile: "Guess, how can I want Wei Zhongqing It is His Majesty's decree to expel him from Shanglin Garden to transfer him to Jianzhang, which is a promotion."

"Ah this-"

"Congratulations, brother Zhongqing!"

"Congratulations, Brother Zhongqing!"

"Brother Zhongqing, you will be promoted to a noble in the future, don't forget our comrades-in-arms in Shanglinyuan, haha!"

When all the soldiers heard this, they all congratulated Wei Qing who was in a daze because of being too happy.
