There seemed to be faint discussions outside the tent, which made Deputy General Guard Xue very confused. He stared at Ximen Lei Zang and asked: "Captain Ximen, what is going on outside the tent, why is there such a noise?"

Ximen Lei Zang hesitated for a moment, then finally stepped forward two steps: "Sir, there are sergeants outside the tent discussing the matter of winter armor."

"What happened to the winter armor?"

What's the matter? The number of winter armors is wrong?"

Ximen Lei Zang's eyes flickered, as if he had something unspeakable. Seeing Xue Poye staring straight at him, he seemed unable to hide anything. He said truthfully: "Sir, the thing is like this. The total number of winter armors awarded by the Ministry of Revenue this time is seven thousand.

Mate, the number is correct, but there is something wrong with the winter armor itself."

"question?"

"Yes." Ximen Lei Zang pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "According to the Ministry of Finance, most of the cowhide from the national treasury is used to make the armor and helmets of the Beizhen Army and shipped to the border. Therefore, there is a shortage of cowhide, but we still try our best to use it at Yulin Camp.

First, we rushed to make 7,000 pairs of winter armors, but... hehe, 2,000 pairs of these were missing a layer of armor and cowhide, and only had a single layer of armor. The Lord General Guard took all these 2,000 pairs of winter armors.

In our Fenghuo Camp, the officers and soldiers were a little dissatisfied and complained outside."

Xue Poye leaned on the big leopard-skin chair and frowned: "Single-layer armor? Two thousand pairs? Are you saying that all two thousand pairs of single-layer armor have been sent to my Fenghuo camp?"

Ximen Raizo nodded.

"Then Xiulin Camp and Taiji Camp both have double-layer armor?" Xue Poye asked, touching his nose, his eyes filled with anger.

Ximen Raizo replied: "Your Majesty, the other two battalions have double-layer armor. Only our Fenghuo battalion has been assigned single-layer armor. It is because of this that the subordinates will not be reconciled."

Zhao Tianda couldn't help but said loudly: "This... this is really bullying."

Gong Yangyue squinted his eyes and said nothing, while several other captains also whispered, looking very dissatisfied.

Xue Poye touched his nose and said calmly: "Why did the General Guard give all these winter armors to me, Fenghuo Camp? Can't they be divided equally?"

Ximen Lei Zang hesitated to speak, Gong Yang Yue even kept silent. Seeing that the captains were silent, the other generals naturally did not dare to take the lead, so the tent fell silent for a while.

Xue Poye smiled faintly and asked Zhao Tianda: "Captain Zhao, you seem to be hiding something from me. We are in the same boat. Is there anything else we need to hide?"

Zhao Tianda glanced at the generals, gritted his teeth, and finally said: "Boss, to put it bluntly, they just look down on me, Fenghuo Camp. In the past, they... they wouldn't have dared to do this."

Xue Poye was very puzzled when he heard something in this guy's words, and even asked more questions. He suddenly realized that Fenghuoying used to be Ding Yi's subordinate.

When Ding Yi was alive, he was naturally majestic. When the eldest princess went on a trip, choosing him as the guard commander showed his own ability and prestige. At that time, Fenghuo Camp was naturally under his protection.

If you get rain, you will live a very nourishing life.

Xue Poye came just now and noticed that everything in the Fenghuo Camp was solemn and orderly. The officers and soldiers were also in high spirits. They appeared to be well-trained and extremely capable. All of this, of course, was the result of his predecessor Ding Yiliu.

Lower grades.

At that time, Xue Poye secretly sighed in his heart: "Although Ding Yi has gone astray, his method of commanding troops is still good."

However, all this majesty and glory must have occurred before Ding Yi's death. Ding Yi unexpectedly became the real murderer of Liu Jin's assassination in Liuheyuan. Even after the eldest princess returned to the capital, she immediately sent all Ding Yi's family servants to prison. Within a few days, an order was passed down from the palace, and Ding Yi killed the three clans and killed more than seventy people. The execution ground can be regarded as a small explanation to Prince Qian.

This is something that only happened recently, and it can be regarded as a major event that shocked the government and the public recently. The Metropolitan Procuratorate, Kyoto Prefecture, and the Criminal Ministry Dali Temple all seemed to be involved in this matter. They searched for the real culprit behind Ding Yi, but found nothing. .

Xue Poye had a clear mind about this matter, so he used the two spy agencies of Dachu and Dachu's criminal law department to jointly investigate a matter. Not to mention a living person, even ghosts and gods could probably find it. Since no one has any clues, the reason is very simple. Naturally, the instigator behind Ding Yi is one that everyone is unwilling to investigate or even dare not to investigate. The only choice is to use Ding Yi as the scapegoat.

Ding Yi was convicted and his reputation plummeted, which naturally had a huge impact on Fenghuo Camp. Although it was impossible to kill Fenghuo Camp, it would cause great damage to Fenghuo Camp's reputation.

The leader of Fenghuo Camp actually had different intentions, which went against the loyal purpose of the Yulin Guards. This not only brought Ding Yi a loss of face, but also affected the entire Fenghuo Camp. In the hearts of the other two battalions, Fenghuo Camp Naturally, he has lost all face, and his status is invisibly lower than that of other camps.

Gongyang Yue had been silent all this time, but now he finally said: "Bear it!"

The people in Fenghuo Camp know the current situation. Ding Yi's assassination has brought huge trauma to Fenghuo Camp, making the brothers unable to hold their heads up. Now the situation is stronger than others, not to mention that this is personally assigned by the General Guard. Can't stand it anymore.

Several generals were filled with indignation and had helpless expressions on their faces.

Xue Poye pondered for a long time and finally said: "Where is the Chief Guard now?"

The generals looked at each other, wondering why Xue Poye asked this question? Could it be that the new deputy general guard dared to stroke the tiger's beard and went to the general guard to argue with him about his brothers' winter armor?

It should be noted that Yulin camp has a strict hierarchy. The matter of asking the chief guard to argue with him had never happened to Ding Yi when he was still alive.

"Don't be anxious." Xue Poye chuckled and said, "I just went to pay my respects to the Chief Guard."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about it, this young deputy general guard has just taken office. How can he have the courage to argue with the chief guard? Everyone knows the majesty of the chief guard. That is true, not to mention the general secretary. If you are not an absolute confidant of His Majesty the Emperor, you will not be able to take up the position of Guard. Anyone who dares to challenge the majesty of the Chief Guard will not get any good results.

Ximen Lei Zang reported: "The General Guard is at Tai Chi Camp on weekdays."

Tai Chi Camp was outside the west wall of the palace. Xue Poye stood up and ordered: "Prepare your horses and go to Tai Chi Camp." He picked up the deputy general guard's talisman on the table, stuffed it into his arms, and left the camp.

Of course there is no shortage of horses in Fenghuo Camp. There are hundreds of horses in one horse farm, with fat waists and long legs. Although they are not as dazzling and powerful as Xue Poye's golden lion, they are still the elite horses of the Great Chu Kingdom.

The Yulin Guard at the racecourse chose a tall horse for Xue Poye. Xue Poye got on the horse and found a long-lost feeling. He felt relaxed all over his body and ordered a Yulin Guard to ride another horse to lead the way. With a wave of his riding whip, he left the Fenghuo Camp and headed for the Tai Chi Camp with ease and ease under the gaze of everyone.

The horse galloped around the base of the imperial wall and stepped on the smooth marble. The horse's hooves made a "tap-tap-tap" sound when it came into contact with the marble.

A pause.

The camp of Taiji Camp is larger than that of Fenghuo Camp. It also looks like the flags are fluttering. The patrolling soldiers are coming and going in a hurry. They are in full formation and are always on high alert.

Anyone who has seen Tai Chi Ying will affirm without hesitation that if there is a change in the palace, a Yulin guard who feels the palace must be from Tai Chi Ying.

On the surface, this is certainly due to the good management of the Deputy Chief Guard of Taiji Camp, but in private, people who understand know that the real credit lies with the Chief Guard of Yulin Camp.

Teng Xifeng, the chief guard of the Yulin Camp, is one of His Majesty the Emperor's most trusted confidants. He once even spent a night drinking with His Majesty. Everyone knows that Teng Xifeng is His Majesty's eyes, hands and feet in the Yulin Camp.

Teng Xifeng was not only loyal, but also a very talented man. Under his leadership, everyone in the Yulin camp was a first-class elite guard.

Teng Xifeng came from the Tai Chi camp. Even after he became the general guard, he has been running errands in the Tai Chi camp. As a result, the deputy general guard of the Tai Chi camp will naturally have much less power. He must consult the general guard for everything. Compared with Fenghuo camp and

The deputy chief guard of Xiulin Camp, the deputy chief guard of Tai Chi Camp is really a bit useless.

Teng Xifeng stood in front of the barracks, looking at the majestic winter armors that had just been shipped on the equipment of several Yulin guards. He couldn't help twirling his beard and praised: "Not bad, those guys from the Ministry of Finance, although they did something wrong this year.

, but the things are really excellent, showing the domineering and bravery of my Yulin camp."

The generals around him nodded in agreement and commented on Dong Jia. Of course, they all followed the words of the chief guard.

Teng Xifeng was over fifty, and his beard was mostly white, with strands of black beard sandwiched between it. He wore a golden battle armor that was exquisite and domineering, with two tiger heads on the shoulder armor.

His figure is not tall, and is even very unproportioned. His upper body looks a bit fat, but there are two relatively thin thighs. Even with leg armor protection, he still looks a bit thin.

His right hand is always resting on his waist habitually. He looks like a general giving directions and a busy farmer taking a rest. It is really contradictory.

Teng Xifeng was originally a very contradictory person.

Many people say that he is affable and sincere, while others say that he is ruthless and cunning as a fox. Some even say that his smiling face from time to time is just a mask to cover up his viciousness. Under that seemingly amiable mask, is

That terrifying and vicious appearance.

However, everyone admitted that Teng Xifeng was loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and had no second thoughts.

"This is because the General Guard treats the soldiers like his own children, so those guys from the Hubu Department don't dare to cause trouble." Li Wu, the Deputy Chief Guard of the Tai Chi Battalion, who looked like a skinny monkey, said with a smile: "As long as the General Guard is in control, the Hubu guys will not dare to cause trouble."

Even if the gangster offends the Beizhen Army, he will not dare to offend the Yulin Camp."

Teng Xifeng smiled faintly, stepped forward and picked up a pair of winter armor, fumbled around for a while and said, "Double-layer cowhide, the armor is strong enough for brothers to use it for a while." Suddenly he remembered something and asked, "Li Wu,

Has the single layer of winter armor been divided?”

Li Wu approached obsequiously, bowed and said: "Master General Guard, the humble duties of the single-layer winter armor have been assigned, sir, please rest assured."

"It's getting cold. Although single armor is not as good as double armor, it is still made of cowhide after all, so it is still cold-resistant." Teng Xifeng said thoughtfully: "I owe it to the other two battalion brothers this year. I will still take advantage of this matter.

, those guys from the Sanhu Department who are just doing nothing."

Li Wu blinked his eyes and came closer and said, "Sir, I assigned all of the two thousand single-layer winter armors to Fenghuo Camp, and Xiulin Camp did not spread them out."

Teng Xifeng's expression turned cold, he glanced at Li Wu and said calmly: "Why did you give it all to Fenghuoying?"

"Sir." Li Wu said hurriedly: "Fenghuo Camp has made the least meritorious service this year, and Ding Yi's crime is unforgivable. Even if this single layer of winter armor passes by, they don't dare to say anything."

"What does Ding Yi have to do with the officers and soldiers of the Fenghuo Camp when he rebels?" Teng Xifeng said coldly: "They are all soldiers of the Yulin Camp. Our Tai Chi Camp uses double-layer winter armor. That's because the Tai Chi Camp will leave the capital for business in a while.

, you have no choice but to do this, how can you favor one over the other? Do you think those guys in Fenghuo camp are easy to bully? If there is a quarrel, how will I explain it? "

Li Wu trembled and did not dare to speak. His captains immediately reported: "Master General Guard, Fenghuo Camp still needs to be reorganized. It will not be able to do much for a while. Give them this single layer of winter armor."

, that is excusable, I hope Lord General Guard will not blame Lord Li!"

All the generals begged for mercy, but Teng Xifeng had a gloomy face and did not answer.

Just at this moment, a Yulin Guard flew over, knelt down and reported: "Master General Guard, Fenghuo Camp Deputy Chief Guard Xue Shitou wants to see you!"

Teng Xifeng snorted coldly and said calmly: "The troublemaker is here." He waved his hand and said: "Bring him here."

The Yulin Guards immediately retreated.

"Sir, do you think that boy is here to cause trouble?" Li Wu said in disbelief: "How dare he come to cause trouble?"

Teng Xifeng put his right hand on his waist and said calmly: "There are many brave people in this world." He slowly walked to the side and sat down on the military chair. Li Wu, the captains and the captain Pinhu stood behind him.

Xue Poye saw a group of people in front of him waiting for him from a distance. Looking at the attire of those people, they were all captains and captains. There was a little old man sitting on the big military chair in the middle. His golden armor was shining. He could tell at a glance that he was a captain.

The chief guard of Habayashi Camp.

Xue Poye felt a little unhappy when he saw these guys waiting for him like interrogators. He walked over quickly and saw the chief guard Teng Xifeng looking calm, twirling his beard, looking calm and composed, like a man taking a rest.

A restful old man.

On the contrary, the generals behind him raised their necks and were arrogant. They didn't take Xue Poye seriously. They all knew that Xue Poye was the lucky one in the political competition. There was absolutely nothing special about this person.

He just sat in this position, and all he could do was slaughter three mastiffs with his bare hands in the Ten Thousand Animals Garden. Compared with this official who had gone through countless battles to get to this position, he was really a child, so they all looked down on Xue Po from the bottom of their hearts.
