Chapter 162 The spirit of everyone and the spirit of a small family
"Hmph... Humph, what you said makes sense." Yihong's tone seemed a little cheerful, "Only fools can believe those dregs and superstitions. This means that your family is not a fool, this is pretty good."
"Hey, what do you mean that my family is not a fool? My family is very smart, okay!"
"That's your family, whatever you want." Yihong turned his gaze away without hesitation.
"I said you guys--oh, forget it, let's talk about the serious business. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet. Where did you get this thing?"
"Stealed." Little red pouted his lower lip, "No, I didn't steal it, so I won't steal anything."
"How did that come about?"
"If you feel something that is dead, you can take it."
"Uh, this is not called stealing, it is called robbery."
"I didn't grab it either." Yihong shook her head and looked very happy: "I took it."
"Ha... Forget it, just say whatever you want." I shook my head with a wry smile, "How to use this thing? Do you want to use it to Prince Rui's Mansion to set up a thread?"
"No." Yihong shook his head, "Just say, I gave it to you by Prince Rui's Mansion. This is the token given to you by Prince Rui's Mansion."
"Ah, that's it." I nodded with a sudden realization, "Indeed, if this is the case, ordinary people will not dare to continue pursuing it."
People often prefer to believe in bad things, not trust in them. Although the Rui Palace is a royal palace, the Rui Palace himself has no power or power, and the Rui Palace itself is just an empty shell. People dare not provoke the Rui Palace or investigate matters related to the Rui Palace, simply because they are afraid of being related to the "Princess of Husband" and "Tiansha Lone Star" and are unlucky.
I looked at the waist card again, and then asked a little Hong.
"Hey, this seems to be a guard's waist card. Can it be used as a token?"
"This is the waist card of the guard, but this is not an ordinary waist card." Yihong rolled his eyes again, "You can use your brain, can ordinary guards use gold-plated waist card with sterling silver?"
"Uh, indeed." I scratched my head awkwardly, "Haha... I'm used to being poor and have no knowledge, don't mind."
I have said before that I have no idea about the affairs of princes and nobles. In my opinion - to be precise, it is in the eyes of ordinary people that princes and nobles should wear gold and silver, and even the chamber pots are made of gold. Since even the chamber pots are made of gold, it is no big deal for ordinary guards to use gold-plated waist cards with sterling silver.
"This waist card is not brought by ordinary guards... Then what waist card does ordinary guards bring?"
"Of course it's copper." Yihong replied without thinking, "The guards with slightly higher identity are copper-plated silver, then sterling silver, and then silver-plated gold."
"What about pure gold?"
"Pure gold is not something that can be used by the royal palace." Yihong rolled her eyes impatiently, "Only the head of the imperial guards can use pure gold waist cards. People outside use it is to betrayal and they are going to be punished. The waist cards have specifications, just like wearing clothes, and cannot be worn randomly. The royal palace has specifications of the royal palace, and the titles of the Duke, Marquis, Bozinan also have corresponding specifications. Officials have specifications of the official, and white bodies have specifications of the white bodies. If they wear randomly, they will be punished."
"Oh...so that's it." I nodded, "What about jadeite agate and other jades? Can these be used as waist brands?"
"No." Yihong replied without thinking, "These things are not suitable for waist cards, especially waist cards for guards. First, because they are too crisp and easy to break; second, because things like jade are feminine, while guards are masculine, and the two are incompatible. Guards cannot damage their masculine spirit, so they cannot bring these things."
"Oh...so that's it." I nodded again, "I've seen it a lot."
"There are all these things in books. If you want to know, go read the book. Don't ask me if you don't understand." Yihong said impatiently.
"Hehe, aren't we partners? Don't you ask who do you ask?"
"Shou and I'm poor." A little bit of red eyes gave me a white look, "By the way, I'll come to you this time, and there's one more thing."
"What's up?"
"You haven't answered me yet."
"reply?"
"That's what I said last time."
The last time I talked to Yihong was to take the newly formed infantry regiment as my own. At that time, I thought what she said made sense, but I did not give her a reply.
Although what she said makes sense, I will not make a decision because of this. This matter is a big deal. Once it is not handled well, both sides will offend people. On one hand, offend the emperor and on the other hand, offend Wen Xiangwu.
If Wen Xiangwu is willing to protect me, offending the emperor is not a big deal. But if Wen Xiangwu does not protect me, then I can't afford to offend this emperor. Although the emperor has no real power, he is the emperor after all. If Wen Xiangwu does not protect me, it would be easy for him to deal with me.
So, in this matter, I have to follow Wen Xiangwu's intention. I followed Lin Zhongsheng around the past two days. When I was going through the procedures, I took his words. This guy is Wen Xiangwu's loyalty, and his attitude is basically equivalent to Wen Xiangwu's attitude. As long as Wen Xiangwu wants to give me this infantry regiment, I can do it with confidence and boldness.
As a result, Lin Zhongsheng wrote me a letter. He said that this infantry regiment is used for experiments, and Wen Xiangwu would not want it, whether it is good or bad. Even if I trained this regiment into the strongest regiment of the 6th Army of the Empire, Wen Xiangwu would not want it.
Wen Xiangwu's eyes are very long-term. In his opinion, if I can train a strong regiment of the Imperial 6th Army, I can train a second, a third, or even a single elite legion. In other words, as long as someone who knows how to train troops is there, there is no need to fight against the emperor because of the ownership of this regiment.
Besides, the current emperor does need some real power, especially military power. As Yihong said, the late emperor could no longer die the emperor.
It is said that before the decline of the imperial power, the scale of the imperial city guards was very large, with 60,000 or 70,000 people divided into several armies and dozens of battalions, which could keep the imperial city guards airtight.
I don’t know how many imperial city guards are in the imperial city today. I only know that the guards army had entered the imperial city and killed the emperor. Also, a while ago, the reform party organization marched, attacked the imperial city, and had a bloody conflict with the imperial city attendants and sanitation. The imperial city guards almost couldn’t stand it. Even if the imperial city guards were large, their combat effectiveness would definitely be very poor.
If the current emperor still can only mobilize the Imperial City Guards like the previous emperors. If something happens to Yiyuanxing and the Imperial City Guards are not enough to deal with the changes, then the emperor will have life worries. At present, it is very necessary to give the emperor an additional force to defend himself.
Compared to Wen Xiangwu's idea, Yihong's idea seemed very petty. Originally, I wanted to get up early tomorrow and go back to the military camp. If Yihong was in the dormitory, I would tell her about this and make her give up her plans. As a result, such a thing happened to happen this afternoon, Yihong came to me and I could tell her about her ideas in advance.
Yihong is a reasonable person. After listening to Wen Xiangwu’s ideas, she gave up her own ideas and asked me to do what Wen Xiangwu said and form an army for the emperor.
