Chapter 93 The Eve
Hu Xiaolin, a native of the capital.
As a warrior, he has a high official position. He is only thirty years old this year and has become the commander-in-chief of the prefecture army.
But compared to the command of the Jinyiwei Tongzhi, Hu Xiaolin of the same level obviously does not have that much power, and is even more dispensable in the eyes of civil servants, far from what Jinyiwei makes them hate and fear.
The reason is that the avant-garde of the government army he is in really has no power and no chance to stand out.
Of course, if you push forward for decades, before Emperor Yingzong harmed the Shangzhi personal army, he, the commander of the vanguard of the palace army, was still very important. Unfortunately, in a big defeat, Emperor Yingzong was captured himself, and the elite troops of the Shangzhi personal army who guarded him also disappeared. Although the vanguard of the palace army, as a member of the Shangzhi personal army, was preserved, he was already as good as yesterday, and his status was worse than that of the day.
Until now, only the little thing left is to protect the safety of nobles in the palace.
However, although their reputation in the court was not high and their status was far less than that of the Jinyiwei and the East Factory, and even civil officials were too lazy to pay attention to their existence, their reputation in the world was no less than that of the Jinyiwei and the East Factory. Moreover, compared with the twists and turns of the palace avant-garde, the people in the world were more accustomed to calling people like Hu Xiaolin the "big inner guards".
If you are far away, you will have enough room for imagination, and mystery can attract people's interest. Compared with the Jinyiwei School Captain and Dongchang Actors who can be seen frequently in the world, the great guards who ordinary people will never see once in their lives are spreading more and more powerfully in the mouths of the people in the world.
However, no matter how bizarre the rumors are, one thing is recognized by everyone, that is, the guards of the inner guards are all masters.
Is Hu Xiaolin a master?
The answer is obvious, otherwise he would not have been sent by the emperor to secretly protect the safety of his young sister.
Although Hu Xiaolin felt a little pressure on the emperor's order, especially when the emperor ordered him to be unable to protect himself, his emperor's fate was greater than that of heaven, and his little commander, obviously did not dare to disobey.
However, after leaving the imperial city for a few days, Hu Xiaolin's originally nervous mood became much more relaxed.
First, he found that the object he wanted to protect - Zhu Jinxuan, although he was a little immature, but he learned very quickly. He didn't have to become a nanny as he originally thought.
Secondly, he found that the emperor had made a lot of preparations in advance. Basically, whenever he went to a slightly remote place that was difficult for the government to cover, the Jinyiwei would prepare in advance. He dared not say that it was foolproof, but he also dared to guarantee that even if there were any mistakes and omissions, he could make up for it in an instant, and it would not cause too much damage to the princess.
Therefore, before arriving at Yao Town, Hu Xiaolin and his men had already regarded this bumpy journey that they thought was a vacation that made them relax and rest.
After all, as a master of the great inner world, I can’t even go out to the south of the Yangtze River. This time, I was very happy with the glory of the princess Zhu Jinxuan, and I learned a lot of customs and feelings from all over the country, and increased my experiences.
It’s a pity that maybe after a long time of good life, God couldn’t stand it anymore and decided to add some tests to them so as not to forget their responsibilities.
Along the way, Zhu Jinxuan had actually noticed the existence of Hu Xiaolin and the others, and Hu Xiaolin and the others knew this, but as long as Zhu Jinxuan did not take the initiative to poke the window paper, they could still run to Zhu Jinxuan to find it uncomfortable.
Therefore, both sides have always had a tacit understanding. When Zhu Jinxuan is in a bad mood, they will stay away and hide more secretly. Zhu Jinxuan is in a good mood and they dare to sway not far from Zhu Jinxuan.
But two days ago, when he saw a large number of people from the martial arts world rushing to Yao Town in the rain, Hu Xiaolin finally decided to risk causing Zhu Jinxuan's unhappiness in the danger of causing Zhu Jinxuan's displeasure, and took the initiative to enter Yao Town and stayed in Dongsheng Inn to protect Zhu Jinxuan's safety in person, so as not to get into big trouble because of insufficient support and protection.
Although it was later proved that Hu Xiaolin was a little worried, then, listening to these people in the martial arts world talking in a loud voice, Jixiao, Zen Temple, and treasures, looking at Zhu Jinxuan's thoughtful expression and brighter eyes, Hu Xiaolin felt inexplicably nervous, and foreshadowed that his task might become extremely difficult.
Sure enough, on this night two days after these worlds arrived, Hu Xiaolin's premonition became a reality.
Zhu Jinxuan, who had always thought they did not exist, took the initiative to find him and told him.
She wanted to follow these gangs and lakes to set out to the Zen Temple in the morning of the following day to find the treasure that her father had cheated away by the demon monk Jie Xiao.
Hu Xiaolin didn't know whether to cry or feel relieved about this.
After all, there are so many people in this incident, and so many sects and gangs involved, and then it will be a very chaotic situation. Zhu Jinxuan will undoubtedly make his mission very complicated and difficult.
However, although Zhu Jinxuan firmly stated that she wanted to participate in this matter, she was not so arrogant that she participated alone. Instead, she came to tell him in advance, which finally gave him a whole day of preparation, which was better than being attacked the day after tomorrow.
Even if the strength is very limited...
Of course, Hu Xiaolin had thought about persuading Zhu Jinxuan to give up this bold idea, but after just thinking about it for a moment, he gave up the idea of persuasion.
Although he was only thirty years old, he joined the vanguard of the government army at the age of sixteen. He has been almost fifteen years now and is considered an old man in the palace. Therefore, he understood Zhu Jinxuan, the youngest child of the late emperor, and even if he told Zhu Jinxuan that the news was fake, the late emperor did not reward Ji Xiao with the so-called treasure back then, I am afraid that Zhu Jinxuan would continue to go with the mentality of luck.
Therefore, as a minister, Hu Xiaolin had no choice but to accept his own destiny.
Zhu Jinxuan's trip was a secret, and he dared not reveal anything. With only one day left in preparation, Hu Xiaolin could only put his hope on the Jinyiwei.
Lu Xiao, who had originally thought of bringing Hu Xiaolin and other big guards to the Zen Temple together, could only smile bitterly at this time.
He hoped to use the power of the great guards, but the price he had to pay was too high.
He can already turn the task of snatching treasures directly into protecting the princess' safety.
As for the treasure that I don’t know if it exists?
Forget it, let it go.
Aren't there still six doors of the constables?
At this point, Lu Xiao can only comfort himself like this.
...
Just as Lu Xiao changed his plan, Dongchang's stronghold nearest to Yao Town was dispatched, and the first 15 people who came to support had entered Xin'an County.
After Li Yu's repeated weighing, the destination of these people also changed from Yao Town to Zen Temple.
