Chapter 787
Di Yingyang's reminder was not too important to Sun Tu. Even without this, he knew that with Gao Qiu's magnanimity, he would not really grasp the real power too easily. Of course, the hidden meaning of this matter is quite far-reaching. In addition to allowing Sun Tu to judge that he would take office soon, the more important thing is that the Di family has made a brief statement with him, and they are obviously on their side.
After sending the person away with a little thought, Sun Tu cheered up and turned back to the backyard. He thought he had hidden his mind well, but he still did not hide it from Yaer's eyes, who was very familiar with him. So at night, when there were only two people, Yaer asked about this matter with concern: "Third brother, brother Ninth brother, is there anything that makes you feel embarrassed?"
Listening to the names of his wife to both sides, Sun Tu smiled unconsciously, then hugged her slender waist and said, "Where are you thinking about again? Brother Jiu is naturally facing us. How could he make things difficult for me? It's just that he mentioned some things in the army, because soon, I was going to join the army, which was always a little trouble, and I couldn't be with you all the time."
"As long as the third brother is safe, as for the rest, you are a man who wants to make achievements, how can you always be with me and Hutou?" Ya'er then felt a little relieved and comforted Sun Tu gently, but it moved him very much. The strength of the arm holding her was a little bit stronger: "If you have a wife like this, what's my husband asking for, what else?

I thought that with Di Yingyang's reminder, I would be able to go to the imperial guards soon, but the efficiency of the court's work was beyond Sun Tu's expectations. It took more than a month to delay it. It was not until September was over that the Palace Front Office sent someone to inform him and sent relevant official edicts.
This thing has been taken several times before. Anyway, every time he is promoted, he will receive such an edict. However, compared to the simple official edicts in the past, this one seems particularly expensive. Not only is the cover with a brocade bag, but the scroll is also made of white jade as the bone. The paper used to record his various official edicts is also brocade silk, and five-color silk thread is wrapped around it. If this official edict is calculated, the cost is more than 100 jin, of course, no one will sell it with this thing.
In addition to this official edict, there is also a token that can be passed into the Imperial Guards and related yamen, which is also quite expensive. It is actually cast in gold, and the details of his Sun Tu's name and official position are also stated on it, which is a certificate for him to enter and exit the military camp.
After getting these two items, Sun Tu's dispatch was completely implemented, and he naturally could take office.
Early in the first and last morning on October 10th, Sun Tu changed into a newly-designed military uniform under Yaer's service, and rode his horse out of the Marquis's mansion with a long waist knife. Behind him, he still followed Tang Feng and other subordinates, with less than twenty. But even so, the murderous aura brought by this line of horse riding on the long street still made many people along the way dodge sideways. Although he did not know his identity for a while, it still put great pressure on everyone.
After running all the way, I soon arrived at my destination today, the Palace Front Office located on the side of the palace. As an important yamen in charge of the imperial guards, the Palace Front Office, of course, like the Privy Council and the Political Affairs Hall, needs to meet the emperor at any time, so the location of this yamen is very close to the palace.
What is different from the other two yamen is that the garrison here is much more rigorous. There are more than a hundred steps away from the yamen. A team of imperial guards guarded there with spears and swords. It is strictly forbidden for non-related people to approach. When Sun Tu and the others approached, they also blocked the situation as soon as possible: "The idle people in front of the palace retreated!"
It was not until Sun Tuliang gave his gold medal that these people put down their weapons, but they still looked like they were doing their jobs: "It turned out that Sun Yuhou took office, and the Grand Marshal had been waiting in the yamen for a long time. Also, these people were not my imperial guards, so they were not allowed to enter."
If it weren't for knowing the virtues of these guys and that they must have been instructed by Gao Qiu to obstruct him, Sun Tu would have praised them for their loyalty and no favoritism. Because as far as he knew, there would be too many people who were not the Imperial Guard or the relevant officials of the Hall Front Office. I didn't expect that they would be so selfless today.
However, Sun Tu couldn't turn against them for such a small matter at this time, so he nodded with a smile: "What you said is that the imperial guards should indeed be like an imperial guards, so how can others enter at will?" As he said that, he waved his hands to Tang Feng, who was obviously a little unhappy, and it's not too late to pick me up in the afternoon."
Seeing that his general spoke, these people did not dare to disobey him. After clasping their fists, they retreated. Sun Tu also turned over and dismounted and walked slowly with the officer. While walking, he asked unintentionally: "I wonder what the general's name is?"
"Haughty Sun Rongming."
"Oh, you and I are still my family." Sun Tu smiled kindly, without any anger at all because of the other party's obstruction. Then he chatted with the other party for a few words. Until he arrived at the door and the two separated, he said with a smile: "I don't like the title of Yu Hou. You can call me Marquis or general in the future. Do you remember?" At the end of the day, his eyes were fixed on the other party's eyes. With just this glance, Sun Rongming's heart suddenly tightened, and his steps subconsciously took two steps back.
In the officialdom, the title is quite rigorous. He seems to have no problem with the title of Sun Tu, but in fact the problem is too big. Because Sun Tu's real official position is Du Yuhou. Although there is only one more Du, his status is very different. One is just a general in the army, and the other is already a high-ranking official who is only under Gao Qiu and a few others in the front office of the palace. It can be said that his name just now was obviously despising Sun Tu, the new boss, and was pointed out by Sun Tu in person!
However, Sun Tu did not really punish him because of this. However, this last glance with deep meaning was enough to make Sun Rongming shocked and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. It was not until this time that he suddenly realized that the new General Sun was much scarier than what others said. In order to curry favor with his superiors, would he bring trouble to himself? In the new chaos, Sun Rongming stayed there for a while...
Sun Tu did not have the intention to make much of a calculating with such a small person, and he reduced his identity in that way. Even if he really wanted to fight, he would have to be a person of considerable status or Gao Qiu. He thought to himself, but his steps did not stop and soon followed the wide road to the yamen. After pulling a clerk for a moment, he headed straight to the largest public office behind to meet his immediate boss Gao Qiu.
However, when he reported the news outside the hall, his reaction was quite slow. It took him half an hour before someone came out to lead him into the door. Sun Tu smiled again. No matter how busy Gao Qiu was, he couldn't take time, or deliberately suppressing himself, he would not take such a trick too much.
After entering the spacious lobby, Sun Tu saw Gao Qiu sitting at a glance at the desk, who was lying on his head and writing something after he grew up. The other party still did not pay attention to Sun Tu who had already bowed down to salute him at the first time. He raised his head and smiled and said, "Don't be surprised by Yuehou. It's really a lot of affairs in the imperial guards recently, so he has been negligent."
"The Taiwei is so serious, everything is more important than official duties." Sun Tu smiled like understanding and bowed, "The Xiaguan is here to take office. I wonder if the Taiwei has any instructions?"
Gao Qiu shook his head after hearing this, and complained with dissatisfaction: "Mr. Yue..."
"The Grand Marshal calls him the lower rank Sun Tu or Qianli, so there is no need to be so polite. After all, here, you are the boss and I am the subordinate, so how can you say the title?" Sun Tu suddenly interrupted.
Hearing this, Gao Qiu raised his eyebrows slightly. Sun Tu's words seemed very modest, but interrupting his words made him feel a little unhappy. In the end, he could only let it go temporarily and said with a smile: "Okay, then let me shout you Qianli. Qianli, you came too late. You obviously sent the official order to your mansion three days ago. Why did you not come to the Palace Front Office to take up your position until today?"
Sun Tu really didn't expect the other party to make such a statement when they met. It was obvious that the efficiency of the court was always low at this time, otherwise he would not have delayed his dispatch for a month to handle half of the dispatch - the dispatch from the Imperial City Department had not yet been implemented. But now, the other party actually criticized him for taking office a little later.
However, Sun Tu was not so stupid that he just contradicted his boss directly, which would only make people feel depressed, so he could only bow his head and admit his mistake: "Because the lower officials did not know the rules of the imperial guards and returned home, they were a little lazy. I would like to ask the Grand Marshal to punish him."
"Forget it, I'm a first offensive, so I won't pursue it this time." Gao Qiu seemed to have a great deal of action, and then frowned again: "But do you know that because you delayed these few days, things have deviated. Just a few days ago, the palace suddenly sent a message, hoping that you would lead the first army to fight in the Imperial Army exercise this autumn, so that the officials could see your prestige and ability when Sun Qianli was quelling the rebellion in Shandong and Jiangnan. At that time, I planned to give you one of the four armies. But now, the four armies are already dominated, but the official's will cannot be ignored, so I can only aggrieved you, so you will take the Hu Ben Army to participate in this military exercise."
