Chapter 284: It’s not easy to be this commander

After the small court meeting, Zhu Xixiao immediately went to Youchunfang of Zhanshi Mansion, and headed towards the Jinyiwei Yamen with four of his confidants in a hurry.

"See the Commander!"

The new emperor's imperial edict has been issued to the Jinyiwei Yamen, so when Zhu Xixiao came to the Jinyiwei Yamen, the gatekeeper recognized him at a glance.

"Okay, okay, get up!"

Zhu Xixiao happily looked at the general flag of the gatekeeper who was clasping his fists and saluting. He did not put on any airs of a commander, but raised his hand in a friendly way to signal everyone to excuse themselves.

But Zhu Xixiao's good temper completely disappeared without lasting even a quarter of an hour.

He cheerfully motioned to the doorman to stand up, and then walked into the Jinyiwei Yamen with a swagger.

But as soon as he entered with his front feet, there was a sound of scolding from behind.

"Be brave, this is the Jinyiwei Yamen, the rest of the people are waiting to retreat quickly, otherwise we will not kill you!!"

The sect leader who had saluted him sensibly before was now holding the handle of the knife with one hand and staring at the four people following Zhu Xixiao with eager eyes.

"what happened?!"

Zhu Xixiao turned back with a dark face, stared at the gatekeeper, and asked in a deep voice.

"Return to the Commander, sir, these four people are sneaking around in front of the Yamen. They are not good people at first sight!"

The gatekeeper flag pointed at the four people and said righteously.

By the way, this sect leader is not blind. How could he not see that these four people came with Zhu Xixiao?

"This is my commander's confidant. He came to Jinyiwei Yamen today to be entrusted with an important task. From now on, he will still be your superior officer. How can he be so presumptuous?!"

Zhu Xixiao was not a fool. He naturally understood that someone had deliberately instructed the gatekeepers to embarrass him, the commander.

"oh?"

The gatekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he stretched out his hand towards Zhu Xixiao and said, "Does that mean there is a waist card issued by Nan Si?"

"Not yet received."

Zhu Xixiao squinted his eyes, stared at the gatekeeper flag and said coldly.

Hearing this, the gatekeeper general smiled slightly and then placed his palm on the handle of the knife again, saying: "I'm sorry, according to the rules of Jin Yiwei, no one is allowed in without a waist card!"

"I don't have a badge, so why didn't you stop me at the door too?!"

Zhu Xixiao also got angry. He grabbed the collar of the door guard and scolded him sternly.

"There is an imperial edict. The imperial edict came to Jin Yiwei just last night, so how can I dare to block your way?"

As the gatekeeper spoke, his whole body's energy swayed slightly, and Zhu Xixiao was instantly shaken away by his collar.

The four people who followed immediately became alert.

Even if they were beaten to death, they would not have thought that a mere Kinyi Guard serving as the general flag could actually be a master of martial arts!

When did Jin Yiwei's strength reach such a terrifying level?

"Okay, okay!!"

Zhu Xixiao was so angry that he said three hellos in a row, then turned to the four people and said, "Wait outside the door!"

After that, he flicked his sleeves and walked directly into the yamen, and walked straight to the hall where the commander of the Jin Yiwei was on duty.

Most of the Jinyiwei are hereditary members of meritorious families, so if they want to join the army, it is not just him who has the final say as the commander.

"Master Yang!"

Arriving at the command hall, Zhu Xixiao put on a smile and saluted Yang Wan, who was sitting in the hall.

"Hey, isn't this the commander? Come in quickly!"

Yang Wan jumped down from his seat in the main hall and welcomed Zhu Xixiao into the duty hall.

Zhu Xixiao didn't waste any time and sat down directly in the main hall seat that originally belonged to Yang Wan.

In his opinion, Yang Wan is just his subordinate. Now that he is the commander, why should he sit sideways instead of sitting in the main hall?

After sitting down, Zhu Xixiao informed Yang Wan of his purpose.

"It's simple. I'll write a note right now. You can go to Nansi's Qianhu Office and prepare a file!"

Yang Wan did not embarrass Zhu Xixiao. He directly picked up the driving post on the slip and scrawled it for a while, then stamped it with the seal of the commanding officer.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang!"

After Zhu Xixiao got the driving ticket, his expression finally softened a little.

At any rate, there are still people among the Jinyi Guards who would give him a thumbs-up as a commander.

Zhu Xixiao, holding the driving ticket, walked out of the command hall. At this time, Yang Wan's expression changed, and he sat back on the big chair in the main hall with a sneer.

After getting the driving ticket, Zhu Xixiao went straight to Nansi's Qianhu Office again.

After all, he is the commander personally appointed by the emperor, so he can naturally have unimpeded access in the Jinyiwei Yamen.

All the way to the Qianhu Office, and after entering the duty hall, Zhu Xixiao directly threw the driving notice on the official desk in the main hall.

"Lord Commander, what does this mean?"

Shen Lian raised his head and looked at Zhu Xixiao with a puzzled look.

"How many people do I need to be employed by this commander? This is a post made by the commander, Mr. Yang. Please hurry up and order people to prepare the files and issue waist cards!"

Faced with thousands of households in a mere official hall, it was naturally impossible for Zhu Xixiao to be as polite as he was to Yang Wan.

"Oh? Let me take a look."

Shen Lian pretended to pick up the driving notice issued by Yang Wankai and read it carefully.

"Isn't this... wrong?"

Shen Lian sent the driving invitation in front of Zhu Xixiao and said with some embarrassment: "The commander wants to promote these four people to become the official Qianhu, but Master Yang's driving invitation alone is not enough..."

"What's the meaning?!"

Zhu Xixiao stared at Shen Lian and asked through gritted teeth.

He finally figured it out. From the gate commander, to the commander and colleague Yang Wan, to the manager of Qianhu, they were all trying to make things difficult for him!

"According to the rules of Jinyiwei, any appointment of more than 100 households must be approved by the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.

You...it would be better for you, Commander-in-Chief, to go to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion first!"

Shen Lian politely handed the driving post to Zhu Xixiao on the ground.

"Now that they are outside the Yamen, can you please give Shen Qianhu's ID card first? Later, I will naturally go to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion to count them."

Zhu Xixiao almost said this through gritted teeth.

The dignified commander actually caused misfortune everywhere on his own territory!

If this matter reaches the ears of the new emperor, what else can he be, Zhu Xixiao, if he is not a useless waste?

"No, no, this is a rule that has been established since our ancestor Taizu. I only have a thousand households, so how dare I overstep it? The higher-ups will blame me, but the lower-level officials cannot afford to take the blame!"

Shen Lian waved his hands repeatedly and did not let go at all.

"Shen Qianhu, are you really unwilling to give me this thin face?"

Zhu Xixiao stood up suddenly and stared at Shen Lian in front of him and asked.

"How dare you lower your rank?"

Shen Lian smiled faintly, and then said: "As long as the commander can get Marshal Fu's post, I will do it immediately, and I won't dare to delay the commander's important event at all!"

"good very good……"

Zhu Xixiao picked up Yang Wankai's driving ticket from the table and held it firmly in the palm of his hand.

He finally saw that the entire Jin Yiwei was against him as the commander.
Chapter completed!
