On the square outside Daxing Palace.
300 travel-worn soldiers were standing there.
The group of soldiers stood there quietly, but they gave off a sense of danger.
It was as if there was a lingering smell of blood on their bodies.
This was also Yang Guang's order.
All the soldiers and horses from all over the country had to select 300 elite soldiers to enter the capital.
The requirement was to be a young and strong veteran who had been on the battlefield at least three times and had accumulated ten lives.
These 300 soldiers were handpicked by Zhang Xutuo.
Among the crowd, three people stood out.
The leader was a tall, yellow-faced man, and his eyes shone brightly.
The other was a bearded man who looked like a giant bear.
The last one was a fair and innocent-looking youth.
They were Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Luo Shixin.
Qin Qiong and the other two were also brought here by Zhang Xutuo, who was specifically asked by Yang Guang.
After waiting for a long time.
Luo Shixin, who was the youngest, was a little impatient.
"Second brother, the general has been in there for so long. What is he doing inside? Are we just going to wait here foolishly?”
Before Qin Qiong could speak, Cheng Yaojin also complained,""That's right. You came all the way to Beijing. What's the point of leaving us here?”
Qin Qiong said in a deep voice," Shut up. This is the foot of the emperor. Don't cause trouble for the general."”
Cheng Yaojin and Luo Shixin were not afraid of anything, only Qin Qiong.
Hearing Qin Qiong's words.
The two of them shut their mouths.
Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes and whispered,""Second brother, the capital is so prosperous. Why do you think the emperor called us here? How does he know our names?”
Qin Qiong coldly spat out three words,""I don't know!"
Cheng Yaojin chuckled." Your Majesty must have heard that I, Old Cheng, am born extraordinary and incomparably brave, so he wants to recruit Old Cheng to be his son-in-law. Hehe!"”
Luo Shixin burst out laughing. Could it be that the royal family is lacking a black bear?"
Cheng Yaojin glared at him.”
Luo Shixin wasn't afraid at all." I'll fight you. As if you can beat me!"”
" Shut up!" Qin Qiong growled." Someone from the palace is here!"”
Only then did Cheng Yaojin and Luo Shixin see two more eunuchs walk out of the palace.
Clearly, they were here for them.
The imperial eunuch looked down on this group of travel-worn soldiers.
His attitude was arrogant.
"Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Luo Shixin, step forward and follow me into the palace!”
"Hey, it's here!"
Cheng Yaojin took a step forward.
Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin also walked out of the formation.
Qin Qiong turned to the other soldiers and said,""Brothers, wait here for a moment. Do not move without orders.”
"Here!"
The three hundred soldiers shouted in unison, giving the two eunuchs a fright.
One of the eunuchs rolled his eyes." Where did these wild soldiers come from? They scared us."”
Cheng Yaojin's hairy face came over." I'm from Shandong. Sorry, but we're just boorish people with loud voices!"”
The eunuch snorted." Come with me. The palace is a place of rules. Don't look at what you shouldn't see and don't ask what you shouldn't ask."”
Qin Qiong cupped his fists.”
The three of them followed the two eunuchs into Daxing Palace and headed straight for Divine Dragon Palace.
At this moment, in the Divine Dragon Palace.
Zhang Xutuo was no longer as reserved as when he first arrived.
He did not expect the Emperor to think so highly of him.
Zhang Xutuo was deeply moved by Yang Guang and swore his loyalty.
"General Zhang, you should have a good rest for two days and experience the prosperity of the capital." Yang Guang said with a smile.”
Zhang Xutuo cupped his fists.”
"General Zhang, I remember you have a son, right?" Yang Guang asked again.”
Zhang Xutuo grinned at the mention of his son."Your Majesty is wise. My son is 13 years old this year.”
Yang Guang nodded." The Crown Prince is still lacking a study partner. Let your son go."”
"The Crown Prince's companion?" Zhang Xutuo was stunned.”
Then, he was overjoyed.
Of course, he knew what it meant for the Crown Prince to study with him.
From the literal meaning, it was a companion who grew up with the Crown Prince.
But in reality, the Crown Prince's study companion was the Crown Prince's original team and confidant.
When the Crown Prince ascended the throne, these people would all be subjects of the Dragon.
He would be put in an important position.
He didn't expect the Old Zhang family to have such an opportunity.
After struggling for half his life, his son was the only thing he cared about.
Now, his son's future was secured.
How could Zhang Xutuo not be excited?
He knelt on the ground." Your Majesty, I'm just a boor. I don't know what to say."”
Yang Guang laughed." Then don't say anything. Show it with your actions in the future."”
Zhang Xutuo punched his left chest heavily."Yes, General."
Yang Guang smiled and said," Go. In a few days, the generals from the other borders will also rush to the capital. At that time, I have important matters to arrange."”
Zhang Xutuo was moved.
"There are other generals coming to the capital? Could it be that His Majesty is going to make a big move?"
He understood that he shouldn't ask what he shouldn't ask.
In any case, he would know everything by then.
Yang Guang continued,"I will keep Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Luo Shixin under your command."”
Zhang Xutuo's face flashed with pain."Your Majesty, I only have three valiant generals under me. You should at least leave one for me.”
Yang Guang laughed out loud." You actually dare to bargain with me? Fine. When you leave, I'll give you a military genius with more potential and talent!"”
"If you use it well, this person is definitely not weaker than Wei Qing and Huo Qubing of the Han Dynasty!”
Zhang Xutuo was stunned and asked curiously,""Your Majesty, may I know who this person is? To be able to receive such a high evaluation from His Majesty.”
"The second son of the Tang Empire, Li Shimin!" Yang Guang said slowly.”
