Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 189 Want to take my place?
Capital.

royal palace.

A long column of imperial guards slowly entered the palace, and a new round of shift change began.

Liang Jin was wearing armor and holding a spear, walking among the imperial guards.

There was a commotion in the distance, which attracted the attention of the imperial guards.

That is the location of the Meridian Gate.

At this time, groups of prisoners were taken to the execution ground and then beheaded.

Heads fell one by one, and blood splattered everywhere.

shocking!

The imperial guards would naturally not be shocked by chopping off a few heads.

They were surprised for another reason.

Although ministers were often dragged out of the Meridian Gate for execution, for example, a while ago, a group of ministers were beaten with sticks outside the Meridian Gate, and many were beaten to death or disabled.

However, since the founding of the Daqian Kingdom, no one has ever been beheaded in the Meridian Gate!

The current emperor has set a precedent.

And not everyone is qualified to be beheaded outside the Meridian Gate.

The criminals beheaded at Wumen were usually involved in serious political crimes or treason. In simple terms, they were high-ranking officials of the imperial court.

Liang Jin frowned secretly.

It seems that the court is becoming increasingly unstable.

Especially since the day after tomorrow is New Year’s Eve.

Did the emperor not want to kill anyone during the New Year, so he executed him before the New Year?
As for what crimes these officials have committed, this is not something ordinary soldiers should consider.

Liang Jin silently followed the large army into the palace, and then returned to their respective posts.

Wang Quan, the account manager, began to distribute the accounts:

"The higher-ups have assigned us a task. Today we'll still be guarding our old location, Nanxun Palace!"

"Li Er and Wang Mao, you two go guard the palace gate."

"Lao Zhang and Xiao Zhao, you two go guard the back door."

"Liang Jin, you should go to the corner tower and guard the intersection."

"The remaining three are on routine patrol with me and Deputy Accountant Qian San."

After Wang Quan became the head of the account, he imitated the previous head of the account, Wu Huan, in every way.

It cannot be said that I learned it in a very good way, it is basically the same!
However, everyone follows the rules and there is no need for an adaptation period.

This way Wang Quan felt relieved and his subordinates were all satisfied.

at this time.

Suddenly someone spoke:
"Boss Wang, I want to change my position."

The person who spoke was actually Xue Yan.

Hearing that it was Xue Yan who spoke, Wang Quan immediately asked with concern:

"Xue Yan, just tell me where you want to go."

During this period, Xue Yan not only provided everyone with new beds, new quilts and new clothes, but also took everyone out to eat, drink and have fun in the capital during their rest time.

He showed off his strong financial resources, going to high-end places, and everything he ate, drank, and used was luxurious and expensive.

So Wang Quan would naturally meet his requirements.

Xue Yan turned his gaze and looked at Liang Jin:

"I want to go to Liang Jin's position."

Everyone was surprised when they heard this.

Everyone knows that Liang Jin's position is the worst position, and it has no benefits except being quiet.

This young man actually wants to run to Liang Jin's position?

But soon, everyone showed a look of sudden realization.

Xue Yan's family background must be extraordinary, and he will definitely be transferred and promoted in a few days.

And this kind of young man certainly doesn't like to get along with a group of soldiers. From the first day he arrived, he has never concealed his disgust and rejection of the soldiers' rough habits.

So he also wanted to have some peace and quiet before he was promoted and transferred.

Now, Wang Quan was a little embarrassed. He looked at Liang Jin and asked:
"Brother Liang, look..."

After all, the position of head of Wang Quan's account was given to him by Liang Jin.

Liang Jin is now protected by Wu Huan, so Wang Quan has no way to force Liang Jin to transfer.

Liang Jin frowned slightly.

What's going on with Xue Yan?
Liang Jin's position is a Feng Shui treasure position for him, and he really doesn't want to give it up.

Just when Liang Jin was about to object.

Xue Yan had already spoken:
"Don't worry, Boss Wang. I can stand guard with Liang Jin."

Logically speaking, there must be at least two people for each position.

Liang Jin's position was remote and no one wanted to go there. In addition, the imperial guards were temporarily short of manpower after some turmoil, so Liang Jin had to stand guard alone.

So there is nothing wrong with Xue Yan’s request.

Upon hearing this, Wang Quan immediately agreed:

"Okay, then Xue Yan, you should go and stand guard with Liang Jin."

Liang Jin certainly didn't want anyone to stand guard with him.

But as a nobleman, Xue Yan probably couldn't stay at this grassroots level for a few days.

So Liang Jin didn't say anything else.

After the positions were assigned, everyone began to go to their respective positions to change shifts.

Liang Jin and Xue Yan were guarding the intersection, both holding spears and standing on both sides of the road.

Xue Yan didn't like talking to rough soldiers.

Liang Jin didn't want to bother with Xue Yan either.

So the two of them just stood there without communicating with each other.

There was a sound of footsteps.

Someone is coming.

The person who came was actually Zhao Bao.

Liang Jin hadn't seen Zhao Bao for a long time, and he didn't expect Zhao Bao to come today.

Zhao Baozheng walked over excitedly, but saw that in addition to Liang Jin, there was also Xue Yan here.

This made Zhao Bao slightly stunned, and his pace slowed down rapidly.

Liang Jin turned his head and glanced at Xue Yan.

Xue Yan looked at Liang Jin, then at Zhao Bao, and seemed to understand something.

He opened his mouth and said:

"Don't worry, I didn't see anything."

Liang Jin nodded slightly at Xue Yan.

This Xue Yan was quite sensible. Liang Jin then stepped forward and pulled Zhao Bao to a secluded spot, away from Xue Yan.

Zhao Bao asked doubtfully:
"Brother Jin, why is there someone standing guard here with you?"

"Looking at that guy's delicate skin and tender flesh, he doesn't look like someone who needs money to buy a good position."

Liang Jin replied:

"He's probably here to get promoted at the grassroots level. Don't pay any attention to him."

Zhao Bao nodded.

Then he said excitedly:

"Brother Jin, you guys are going to have a day off tomorrow, right?"

"When the time comes, I'll leave the palace and invite you to dinner in the city. We've known each other for so many years, but we haven't had a good drink together yet."

Liang Jin was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Leaving the palace?

Most eunuchs do not have the opportunity to leave the palace on weekdays.

Only a small number of eunuchs were allowed to leave when they were ordered to do something.

Liang Jin seemed to understand the ancients:

"Zhao Bao, you are favored by Concubine Han?"

Zhao Bao was serving the imperial concubine. He wanted to leave the palace only if the imperial concubine sent him to do something.

Anyone who can be sent out of the palace by Concubine Han to do work must be highly valued by Concubine Han.

Zhao Bao said proudly:
"of course!"

"Now, let alone leaving the palace, I can even leave the capital!"

Liang Jin was completely surprised this time.

Although there are few eunuchs who can leave the palace, each department still has some matters that need to be handled outside the palace.

But even among the eunuchs who were allowed to leave the palace, most of them were not qualified to leave the capital.

Eunuchs who can leave the capital are extremely rare.

They basically worked for the emperor.

Zhao Bao served the imperial concubine, so logically speaking, he was not qualified to leave the capital.

However, Concubine Han was deeply favored by the emperor, so all her privileges were incomparable to those of other concubines.

It seems that Zhao Bao has become Concubine Han's confidant.

"Okay, tomorrow we two brothers will go have a good drink together!"

Liang Jin also agreed readily.

Zhao Bao was living a good life, so he was naturally happy for him.

As he was speaking, someone else came over.

It turned out to be Su Lian.

Su Lian walked over alone, somewhat dazed. When she saw Liang Jin and Zhao Bao, she was surprised:

"Brother Bao, you are here too."

"The time the three of us can spend together is becoming increasingly rare."

“I miss the old days so much…”

As Su Lian spoke, her eyes began to turn red.

Seeing this, Zhao Bao thought Su Lian was just reminiscing and hurriedly comforted her softly.

Liang Jin had a bad feeling in his heart.

He immediately pulled Su Lian and Zhao Bao a little further away, making sure their conversation would not be overheard, and then asked:

"Su Lian, do they still bully you?"

"The incident with the Paulownia doll didn't change their attitude towards you?"

Zhao Bao was confused when he heard this.

And Su Lian told her story.

original.

Ever since the incident with the Paulownia doll, Concubine Zhang's attitude towards Su Lian has indeed improved, and she no longer allows other palace maids and eunuchs to bully Su Lian.

Su Lian had a good time because of this.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and Concubine Zhang was suddenly involved in a case.

The abbot of Dafo Temple encroached on people's land and was reported to the Censorate.

But when they checked, they somehow found out that it was Concubine Zhang.

It turned out that during that period, Concubine Zhang had close contacts with the abbot of Dafo Temple.

Even the abbot of the Big Buddha Temple confessed under torture that Concubine Zhang had bribed him to make lucky bags and confused the time of making the lucky bags.

Although Concubine Zhang was not ultimately implicated in the case of embezzling people's land, she was still reprimanded by the Queen.

This made Concubine Zhang very upset.

Given her personality, as long as she is not having a good time, she will not let all the servants have a good time.

As a result, during this period, the servants serving Concubine Zhang were often harassed, beaten and scolded. Everyone lived in fear, fearing that the slightest thing would make Concubine Zhang furious.

Su Lian has been subjected to a lot of harassment and criticism these days.

Taking advantage of the fact that Concubine Zhang asked her to send the dirty clothes to the laundry today, she had the opportunity to come and talk to Liang Jin.

"Brother Jin, Brother Bao, these days of serving the master are not pleasant at all."

"If I had known earlier, I should have stayed in the laundry department. At least I wouldn't have to endure this hardship like now."

As Su Lian spoke, tears fell from her eyes.

She has changed a lot since she started serving the imperial concubine.

She is no longer as innocent as before and talks a lot.

Su Lian now speaks less and less, and no longer dares to easily express her emotions. She feels like she is about to become a wooden man.

Only when facing Liang Jin and Zhao Bao could she cry freely.

Zhao Bao was shocked:
"Xiao Lian, you are actually...serving Concubine Zhang?!"

As he cried out in surprise, his expression was filled with complexity.

After that, Zhao Bao hesitated several times to speak, but in the end he said nothing.

Zhao Bao served Concubine Han.

And Concubine Zhang, whom Su Lian served, happened to be a thorn in Concubine Han's side.

These two concubines have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, and the forces behind them are also incompatible.

As for the case of the abbot of Dafo Temple, it was Zhao Bao who handled it all. It was thanks to this case that he became Concubine Han's confidant.

Zhao Bao never thought that his actions would harm Su Lian.

If he had known this earlier, he would never have helped with the case.

This made Zhao Bao at a loss as to how to explain this matter for a moment.
