Chapter 75 Choice

"That's a pity. Staying in the Jinyiwei is really a waste of your skills, Brother Li."
Seeing Li Xiu politely declined, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel a pity. The two met for several months, so he naturally knew very well how talented the Li Xiu, who was a few years older than him, was.
Everything made his eyes lit up, and even completely changed his persistence and view in many aspects.
He had no doubt that as long as he was given a platform to display his talents, he would definitely surprise everyone.
"Haha, you have confidence in me!"
After joking, Li Xiu seemed extremely calm. To put it bluntly, he is already a real-powered household, which is quite good.
Seeing Li Xiu's attitude, Zhu Youjian couldn't force it. He exchanged a few greetings, but the tone suddenly changed: "I heard that the war in Shandong is coming to an end. The thief leader Xu Hongru and his family members were captured alive. He has been escorted to the capital for trial. Is this news true or false?"
"Of course it's true."
Li Xiu nodded undeniably.
"That's good. The war lasted for so long and it was finally over."
Zhu Youjian nodded, feeling relieved.
Looking at Zhu Youjian's relief look, Li Xiu couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
This is really a bad era.
Not only did a group of White Lotus bandits consumed the military power of Shandong, the capital sent troops several times. Even so, they still threatened the White Lotus bandits to threaten the grain transportation several times and turbulent the capital. This is a sign of extreme incompetence.
It consumed countless manpower, material resources and financial resources. With an absolute advantage, it took so long to fight, and it was so difficult that it could even be said to be a decay, leaving endless troubles before it could be pacified.
Even though he had not paid much attention to this war since he returned to the capital, he had the identity of the Jinyiwei, so any news could not be hidden from him. A quelling the rebellion was simply a feast of sharing the spoils.
Everyone made a lot of money, but the only ones who lost were the people in the Ming Dynasty and the war zone.
But that's it, under the cover of the upper and lower parts, it is already a foregone conclusion to suppress the heroes of the rebellion.
At this time, Li Xiu was too lazy to attack Zhu Youjian's interest. After all, there was some uncertainty in the future. History would still be the original history, and no one knew it, so there was no need to let him think too much.
After a few greetings, Erwa asked him to buy wine and food, and the guests were having fun. Until the sky got darker, Zhu Youjian left as usual.
One night passed, and the next day was another day without any turmoil.
When inspecting the streets, Li Xiu was naturally too lazy to waste his thoughts. He put all the things to various small banners, and went back and forth to the mansion and hundreds of households every day. He still studied and practiced martial arts, and his life was quite comfortable.
In the blink of an eye, several months passed. The capital that had been calm for a while has been rising again in these months.
The heads and backbones of the Donglin Party, who were dismissed for the people, followed an imperial edict and the Tiqi went out everywhere. The backbones of the Donglin leader who had returned home were captured and directly sent to the imperial prison. Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and the backbones of the Donglin leader were all tortured to death by factory guards.
For a moment, the entire capital was suddenly in a panic, and with the blood of Donglin, it created a more terrifying reputation of nine thousand years.
The entire court has become the world of the eunuch party, and the reputation of nine thousand years old is no match for the world.
Of course, all this naturally has nothing to do with Li Xiu. No matter how the capital changes, he is just a clan guard and a hundred households, patrolling the street security, handling trivial matters, and studying and practicing martial arts. Li Xiu lived a comfortable life.
As for major events, it is not his turn to Jinyiwei. In the capital, Dongchang is the real boss. Jinyiwei is about to become a vassal of Dongchang. Most of the time, he will do something to Dongchang or wipe the dirty things that Dongchang has done.
Li Xiu was unable to change this situation, so he could only accept it.
The only episode in the middle is that Xu Hongru and his family members of the White Lotus were escorted to Beijing. When paraded in the streets, they led the team as a guard, and then maintained order in the execution ground when they were executed. In addition, he still lived a mediocre life.
Of course, the so-called mediocrity is just Zhu Youjian's always ridicule. For Li Xiu, this kind of life is quite fulfilling.
By taking advantage of the inspection, I occasionally kill a few little thieves, accumulate some energy, read and practice martial arts every day, and enrich myself bit by bit, and live a comfortable life.
Li Xiuben thought this kind of life would last for quite a while. After all, although there are many trivial matters, there is no such thing as a result and no merits, so there is no change.
However, unexpectedly, the news brought by Zhu Youjian made him feel a little uneasy.
"You mean, Your Majesty wants to reorganize the Warriors' Camp and the Four Guards' Camp?"
"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, it will start soon. At that time, the elimination and reorganization and the recruitment of soldiers and generals will slowly unfold..."
"I heard from Your Majesty that you have the talent to command troops. This time, the Warriors Camp and the Four Guards Camp will be reorganized, and you will probably be transferred to..."
After saying that, Zhu Youjian looked at Li Xiu and couldn't help but persuade him: "Brother Li, this is a good opportunity for you. Now that Wei Zhongxian is in the dynasty, the Dongchang is in a high position, and the Jinyiwei is unlikely to be of great use. Such wasted time will ultimately restrict you from all your studies..."
"His Majesty said my name?"
Li Xiu didn't care about Zhu Youjian's persuasion, but instead looked at Zhu Youjian quite strangely and asked.
"Well……"
Seeing Li Xiu's strange look, Zhu Youjian was stunned and hesitated for a while before he explained: "I heard what the elders in the family said..."
Hearing this, Li Xiu didn't know where he was. It was definitely Zhu Youjian who used the means. Otherwise, no matter how he was transferred, it would not be his turn to be the Jinyiwei Baihu.
Moreover, he remembered that the reorganization of the Warriors Camp and the Four Guards Camp only began during the Chongzhen period, and now it is only the fifth year of the Tianqi period. If it were not for Zhu Youjian's influence, it would be a strange thing.
Now that things have come to this point, Zhu Youjian said this no matter what. According to Li Xiu’s understanding of him, it is probably a foregone conclusion.
Since it cannot be changed, Li Xiu has to think about it seriously.
After all, Zhu Youjian was right. The current Jinyiwei is not a good place.
In the past, Wei Zhongxian had not been advising the East Factory. After all, most of the things needed to rely on the Jinyiwei. However, as Wei Zhongxian advisored the East Factory, his power became stronger and his status became more and more embarrassing.
Li Xiu has had a deep understanding of this for more than half a year.
Basically, it is the head of the East Factory, and the Jinyiwei is the dog!
Wei Zhongxian has a long time of glory. If he always acts as a dog, no matter how comfortable he lives, he will inevitably feel depressed.
