He was originally handsome and had a well-proportioned body.
At this moment, wearing the flying fish robe, he looked even more cold and could be considered a rare handsome man.
"From today onwards, you are a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.”
Yang Dali patted Xiao Wuji's shoulder and smoothed the wrinkles on his shoulder. Then, he grinned and said,""I didn't know you were so handsome before.”
"If Uncle Yang remembers correctly, you are already eighteen years old this year. You can get married.”
"Do you have a lover? If you do, tell Uncle Yang. Uncle Yang will help you propose marriage.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuji's mouth twitched and he quickly waved his hand." There's no need, Uncle Yang. I'm still young. There's no rush to get married.”
He did not expect that Uncle Yang, this old Jinyiwei, actually liked to be a matchmaker.
It seemed that regardless of whether it was in his previous life or this life, the elders liked to urge him to get married.
"You're not young anymore. You're still young at the age of eighteen?”
"The sooner you get married and have children, the sooner you can give birth to a fat boy. That way, your father will be at peace in the afterlife.”
"After all, the Jinyiwei are in this line of work, sigh."
Yang Dali sighed and shook his head.
Xiao Wuji knew what he meant.
Although the Brocade Guard was the emperor's personal army and had great power, it was still a life-and-death business.
Becoming a Jinyiwei was like putting your head on your belt.
Who knows when he would lose his life.
The sooner he married and had children, the sooner he could leave his bloodline.
This way, if anything happened to Xiao Wuji in the future, the Xiao family would not be extinct.
Because of this, the Jinyiwei married and had children early.
There are three kinds of unfilial behavior, and the greatest is to have no descendants.
No one wanted to see their descendants die.
"Alright, let's not talk about this. I'll bring you to familiarize yourself with the Northern Garrison.”
After that, Yang Dali brought Xiao Wuji around the North Town Administrative Office.
As he walked, he told Xiao Wuji where he could go and where he couldn't.
He also listed out who he could not offend and who he could not afford to offend.
The internal relationships of the Jinyiwei were complicated. If they were not careful, they would offend people and die without knowing how.
The Northern Garrison Office occupied a large area. There were a total of 16 thousand-household offices, an imperial prison dungeon, a scripture pavilion, and many warehouses and logistics departments.
Yuan Xiong's Thousand Households Institute was only one of the sixteen.
Each thousand-household office commanded four century-household offices, and each century-household office had four general flags.
Xiao Wuji was one of them.
"Then who is the centurion leading us?”
Xiao Wuji could not help but ask Yang Dali.
Yang Dali shook his head." Centurion Zhu, who was originally in charge of your father and me, died in the battle against the bandits. The new Centurion has yet to be decided."”
"Maybe they will choose one of us to take over, or maybe they will transfer another person.”
Speaking of the new Centurion, Xiao Wuji noticed that Yang Dali's eyes flashed with a fiery light.
It was obvious that he coveted the position of Centurion.
However, this was normal. Yang Dali had been the Chief Flag Officer for several years. It was normal for him to want to climb up the ranks. Xiao Wuji did not take it to heart.
"Let's not talk about this for now. I'll take you to the east courtyard first to meet your subordinates.”
As he spoke, Yang Dali brought Xiao Wuji to the east courtyard of the Hundred Households Institute.
As the Chief Flag, Xiao Wuji commanded four small flags and forty strong men.
He didn't need to know all of them, but he had to see the four flags.
When he arrived at the east courtyard, the Embroidered Uniform Guards in the courtyard immediately noticed Xiao Wuji's existence.
After all, such a young commander and a stranger, it would be hard not to attract attention.
"Let me introduce everyone. This is the son of the former Chief Banner, Xiao Ruohai, and the new Chief Banner, Xiao Wuji.”
Yang Dali introduced Xiao Wuji to everyone.
"Greetings, everyone. I am Xiao Wuji. Please take care of me in the future.”
Xiao Wuji stood in front of more than 40 people and cupped his fists. He was neither servile nor overbearing.
Seeing this, Yang Dali secretly praised Xiao Wuji's extraordinary bearing.
It was already very rare for an eighteen-year-old youth to be able to remain calm in the face of a group of Embroidered Uniform Guards.
He had been in the Jinyiwei for more than ten years and had seen many new people who replaced his father.
Those rookies were all trembling in fear when faced with such a situation. Some of them could not even speak properly.
"Greetings, sir."
The forty or so people below cupped their hands in return, but their voices were sparse and lacked the slightest bit of spirit.
Xiao Wuji knew that this was because he had just arrived and his subordinates were not convinced by him.
Although Xiao Wuji had inherited his father's career and was rightfully appointed as the chief flag officer, he was still a young man.
However, some of the people below were still unconvinced.
A young boy who had just arrived was riding on the heads of a group of men. Few people would be willing.
Xiao Wuji didn't care about the 40 strongmen's attitude, but he could see the attitude of the four small flags.
Among the four flags, only one of them had a good attitude. The other three all looked disdainful.
" That man is called Zhao Zhe," Yang Dali whispered." He used to be your father's subordinate. He was the only survivor of the bandit suppression battle, Xiao Qi."”
"The other three small flags were newly transferred over a few days ago.”
"But they are different from you. They have been Jinyiwei for a few years, and you are the only newcomer.”
Xiao Wuji instantly understood.
He had been the chief flag the moment he arrived, while they had endured for a few years and were still small flags. Their mentality was naturally unbalanced.
Yang Dali instructed Xiao Wuji to build a good relationship with his colleagues.
Don't be too aggressive in everything. Endure as much as you can.
After a few years, everything would be fine.
Xiao Wuji listened quietly without saying a word.
There was no agreement or rebuttal.
He had his own set of rules.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards were not dangerous to him, but an opportunity.
With the martial strength of a martial grandmaster, he could climb up as long as he seized the opportunity.
He could completely break through some treacherous schemes with his strength, so there was no need to feign civility.
Whoever dared to stop him from getting promoted and getting rich, he would take their lives!
