Xu Bai has been really busy recently. Not to mention not going home, even if he doesn't see him in the royal palace.

He lives in a military camp, a military camp near the west mountain of the capital.

Although the Shi Dang case has passed, countless people have been implicated. Shi Heng was born in the army, and compared with the officialdom, the army is the hardest hit area of ​​this major case.

In the border town, there are naturally a group of military generals promoted and appointed by the Empress Dowager in the past to sort out the order in the army. In the capital city, once the situation stabilizes, it will be cleaned up.

The Tengxiang Four Guards were the focus of the Qing army of the Beijing Guards this time, and the Tengxiang Four Guards have always been used as imperial guards in the capital. It is reasonable and if there is no revocation, it is naturally the most appropriate to be controlled by the emperor's confidant.

However, this job fell on Xu Bai's head.

Xu Bai was sure that this was definitely not the emperor's intention. If nothing unexpected happened, the empress dowager in the palace should mean it. As the prince, although he is now in charge of the country, the power in his hands is too weak. To put it bluntly, if something unexpected happens, the prince has almost no ability to deal with it except staring at him.

No matter how many Qing troops are, the Qing army can end up with ten thousand people. If used well, these more than 10,000 people will not only protect the safety of the royal family, but also influence the situation in Beijing at critical moments.

From this point of view, the Empress Dowager has done a good job in dealing with the Prince.

On the emperor's side, Xu Bai never thought about it. Judging from the various actions of the empress dowager and the reaction of the prince, although it is publicized to the outside world that the emperor has been resting in the palace, only God knows when this resting will end. Today's court, even if it is as powerful as the cabinet masters, dare not discuss this matter in front of others.

So, Xu Bai is really busy recently.

Since it was the Qing army, then those who were not loyal enough, had bad records in the Tengxiang Guards, and who had been associated with Shi Heng's party, naturally they could not be kept. Ordinary soldiers were easy to say, just clear out the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and some of them who were vacant. However, Xu Bai had to review them one by one.

From the commander of the guard to the guard, to a small flag, all the stay and leave were Xu Bai's thoughts.

In addition to Yang Li's staff, Xu Bai also transferred the 100 households of Fang Shouqiong from the Nanzhen Fushi Department directly to the military camp for his sufficient staff to use.

In the huge military camp, except for the officers who had self-defense weapons, all the soldiers were disarmed and waiting for the end of the Qing army. The fully armed Jinyiwei went in and out of the military camp and fell into the eyes of ordinary soldiers and officers. The taste was naturally not good. In the past, they could even ignore the existence of Jinyiwei, but now these Jinyiwei are the destiny of each of them.

"Commander Chen!"

In the largest room in the middle of the camp, the gathering place of the Jinyiwei, and from here, orders were issued to tidy up the troops.

At this moment, Xu Bai was talking to a general in front of him.

"exist!"

"I have been in the Crown Prince's order and have been here for several days, but I rarely see you. If Commander Chen had not reported his own home today, I would have thought that the general had gone to the wrong place!"

"Mr. Xu, Master Xu has already asked the Qing army to leave a few days ago. Because of his health, he rested for several days. If he neglected his lord, Master Xu is willing to receive punishment!"

"Is it just unwell?" Xu Bai looked at him coldly: "Didn't you go to Tianjin to find a position as a Qing military post?"

In front of Xu Bai, the general who was slightly fat in his body suddenly turned pale.

"I'm actually quite strange!" Xu Bai shook his head: "Our Qing army's four guards, of course, the first one is to investigate you guard commanders. You have only been in office for two months, and your foundation is pretty clean. Why did you suddenly have the intention of going to Tianjin? Besides, you are also the guard commander of the Beijing Guard. Even if you go to Tianjin, you must at least find a guard commander. Be a Qing army road. Wouldn't you be willing to fall into depravity?"

"Since sir, have you checked me, don't you know the reason why I want to leave?"

The blood on Chen Taizhong's face slowly replied, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This commander of the Tengxiang Left Guard is not something I am willing to do. I have been sitting in the Ministry of War for so long, and suddenly a decree transferred me over. The general does not know the soldiers, and the soldiers do not know the general. What is the meaning of this commander!"

"That's better than being a free job in the Qing army!" Xu Bai said softly: "In the past, the Wala people invaded my Ming capital. You followed the Minister of War Yu Qian to fight bloody battles at Deshengmen and were promoted to a hundred households. In the following years, you went to Xuanfu and Jizhou, and finally transferred back to the capital. The court placed you in the position of commander of Tengxiang Left Guard. It was a reward and a heavy use, not to let you continue to sit on the bench!"

"Hmm?" Chen Taizhong raised his head in confusion and looked at Xu Bai.

He has heard more than once that this important official around the prince said that this man was born in the Jinyiwei, and he was vicious and killing, and he used all means to do things. He was also known as the two evil stars of the Jinyiwei, who are now notorious Jinyiwei Lu Gao.

If any official falls into their hands, he will have to peel off even if he dies.

However, when I heard Xu Bai's words at this moment, it seemed that he was not asking him to offend him, but trying to keep him for the court?

"I have heard of the story of Yu Shaobao fighting against Deshengmen since I was a child!" Xu Bai smiled slightly: "I thought at that time, I thought, at that time, I followed Yu Shaobao to fight the Oirat in Deshengmen, what a hero that was. If I were older, wouldn't I have caught up with this vigorous battle?"

"Yu Shaobao died is not worth it!" Chen Taizhong glanced at Xu Bai and said slowly.

"I know, you know, and many people know!" Xu Bai shook his head: "But even if you are Yu Shaobao's old subordinate, you can't just say such words. Is Yu Shaobao's death worth it? The people know, and later history books also know it!"

He stared at Chen Taizhong: "But if everyone in Yu Shaobao's old subordinates miss you and complained about Yu Shaobao everywhere, it would not be a question of whether Yu Shaobao's value is worth it, but a question of whether you are worth it!"

Seeing that Chen Taizhong was about to speak, Xu Bai waved his hand to stop him: "I know you want to say something like a real man sacrifices his life for justice, and it's not worth mercy to die, but I just want to tell you that if a person dies, he can't help others to make trouble!"

"Tianjin, don't go, stay with me at the Tengxiang Left Guard and clean up this army for the court. I dare say that the Tengxiang Four Guards that have been cleaned up are the place you can stay the most in the world. Only by staying here can you have the opportunity to fulfill your wish!"
