Xiahou An did not agree immediately.

He asked Ding Gong: If I stayed at the Shangshutai, would I have to be like them, busy with these bamboo slips every day.

Ding Gong nodded.

The people at the Shangshutai were very busy, including him, the Shangshuling.

From morning to night, there is almost no excessive rest time.

"Then I'll just stop doing this..."

Xiahou An said without hesitation. Working for Boss Cao was already a waste of his brain. If he did this, his brain would probably be broken.

Ding Gong was a little surprised by this. Shangshutai was a place that many people dreamed of not being able to enter, but Xiahou An actually refused.

Could it be that he still wants a higher position?

Ding Gong's forehead wrinkles became a little deeper. He looked at the young man in the hall and asked, "What do you like?"

Speaking of this, Xiahou An also had plans in his heart: "Is there a position that can be paid without any brains, practice martial arts every day, ride a horse, and get a salary."

He has a heart that wants to become stronger. His strength is too weak now and he can't even touch the threshold of a third-rate general. If he fights one-on-one, he will be able to cut down ordinary bandits a little better than an ordinary martial artist.

Xiahou An’s dream is to become a man who rushes into the thief’s nest like Xu Chu, looking around with tigers and wolves, and no one approaches me.

"I know where you should go."

After hearing Xiahou An’s thoughts, Ding Gong gave a letter to a Gongcao in the hall, asking him to lead Xiahou An to go.

Xiahou An followed Gongcao.

This trip took most of the hour.

After crossing the broad road, Gongcao led Xiahou An to the new palace.

The guards guarding here are different from the imperial guards I have seen before.

In contrast, their armor is more delicate and tight, with a very high armor coverage rate. They hold long spears in their hands and stand straight on both sides of the road, wearing helmets, and a very long white feather is inserted into the helmet.

Yulin Army!

These three words suddenly popped up in Xiahou An's mind.

The Yulin Army, also known as "Jianzhang Yingqi", was founded during the reign of Emperor Wu. It was named after the guard Jianzhang Palace. It was later renamed "Yulin", which means: it is the wings of the country, as prosperous as a forest.

The number of Yulin soldiers is about 1,800, and their main responsibilities are guards and cavalrymen.

Among them, the highest commander is the General of Yulin Central Lang, with 128 people under his command, one person on the left and right prisons, 800 left cavalry and 900 right cavalry.

The selection conditions for the Yulin Army are extremely harsh.

One is the good people in the six counties and three auxiliary places.

What are the six counties and three auxiliary departments?

It refers to Hanyang, Longxi, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun, Xihe, and Jingzhao, Left and Right Fufeng. Good people are not just ordinary people, they must be children with a reputation in the local area.

Second, those who have made contributions in the battle will select a small group of them.

The third is the descendants of the generals who died in the army, also called Yulin orphans.

As early as Emperor Huan, Dong Zhuo served as Yulin Lang. Now that he is in power, he naturally does not forget his old boss. The status of the Yulin Army has also risen.

The person who is now serving as the General of the Central Army of the Yulin is Li Meng, a confidant general under Dong Zhuo.

Xiahou An stayed outside the hall.

Gongcao went in to meet him, bowed to Li Meng and said, "General Zhonglang, this is the person recommended by Shangshu Ling to you."

Li Meng, who was lying in the hall, was drunk, and two young palace maids with delicate bodies were hugged by him.

Not only was Dong Zhuo invaded by power, wealth and sex, but many of the tribes who followed him from Xiliang were also addicted to it.

The land of Xiliang is bitter and cold.

Dong Zhuo was also tolerant of this and waved his hand: Brothers have been fighting with me for more than ten years, can’t they enjoy it?

As long as you don’t get it on this Master, you can do whatever you want.

With Taishi Dong's tacit approval, the generals of Xiliang became even more unscrupulous. During this period, several conflicts occurred due to uneven distribution of spoils, and the relationship between the generals gradually developed cracks.

"What's the origin?"

Li Meng asked lazily.

Gongcao replied in a low voice: "It seems to be related to the Grand Master."

If you are involved, you will be related to the household.

Li Meng knew that if he was really the confidant of the Grand Master, he would not have been sent to the Yulin Army. It was probably just a little bit of a relationship. He wanted to be a gangster, so he was assigned to him.

After figuring it out, Li Meng didn't get up, but just raised his head slightly so that his eyes could pass through, and shouted loudly to the outside: "Zhang Ziyu, there is a new boy. You go and take him with you. It's nothing, don't bother me!"

The young man from Yulin who was guarding outside the hall nodded.

Gongcao's mission was successfully completed. After saying goodbye, he walked towards the Shangshutai.

Looking at Gongcao who was walking away, Xiahou An looked back. He seemed to have become accustomed to this process, standing there, waiting for the next relay.

Soon, a heroic Yulin boy came to him.

"Follow me."

Zhang Ziyu's tone was cold.

Is that cool?

Xiahou An complained in his heart, but followed her honestly.

"If nothing unexpected happens, you will be the candidate for Yulin Rou..."

Zhang Ziyu said while walking that Yulinlang and Yulin cavalry belonged to the Yulin Army, but the specific division of labor was different. Yulinlang was mainly responsible for the guards of the palace when the emperor was sleeping at night, while Hu Benlang was responsible for the daytime.

To put it bluntly, it’s just a security guard who stands guard at night!

Xiahou An murmured in a low voice.

Zhang Ziyu seemed to have not heard it, and then said, "The Yulin Cavalry acted as a accompanying guard when His Majesty was traveling. His status was lower than that of Yulin Lang and higher than other imperial guards and guards..."

"If you don't have any other tasks on weekdays, you'll be more free."

Hearing this, Xiahou An's eyes lit up and he wanted to shout on the spot.

I want to be a Yulin Rider!

I want to paddle, I want to fish!

Xiahou An tentatively asked if he could be transferred to the Yulin Cavalry, but Zhang Ziyu glared back, as if he was blaming him for being a little ungrateful.

Afterwards, Zhang Ziyu briefly introduced the palace architecture and layout in Chang'an City, as well as the work and rest time of the Yulin Army.

You must stay in the palace when you are on duty, and you can go home when you are not on duty.

In principle, it is five or one off.

If there are special circumstances, the vacation will be cancelled.

In short, the actual situation shall prevail.

The salary is three hundred stones.

The difference is not small compared to the boss of Two Thousand Stone, but it is much higher than some ordinary officials in the official office.

Afterwards, Zhang Ziyu took Xiahou An to get the armor and weapons, and also burned the talisman book.

The talisman is written with Xiahou An’s name, address, as well as his position and the department he belongs to, which are mainly used to identify identities, which are equivalent to the identity documents of later generations.

With this, we can pass through the palaces.

After completing a set of processes, it is almost dusk.

Thinking of the agreement with Qin Shao today, Xiahouan made an excuse and said that he wanted to go back and tell the elders at home so that they could be happy as well.

Zhang Ziyu didn't force him and asked him to come over to pay the price tomorrow night.

After leaving the palace, Xiahou was calm and refreshed.
Chapter completed!
