Chapter 96 Golden Elixir is Poisonous!(2/2)
First of all, let’s talk about this door. Although Zhao Si’s dress is very elegant, it’s not symmetrical for a person to stand at the door. He can’t add another one to complete the second general?
Secondly, when Zhao Si was banned, there were people changing shifts in other places, but not here in Zhao Si. Even the shift was approved by the First Emperor himself.
"In some places, there are permanent sergeants holding halberds, and basically every sergeant has to be scheduled to be on duty. However, in some places, there are usually no bodyguards on duty." Meng Yi smiled and explained to Zhao Si.
Lang Guan is always on duty at the palace gate, not the house gate.
The First Emperor could only take a glance at it when passing by that palace or entering or leaving the palace.
The place where Zhao Si stood was the door of the house. There were usually no officials or even guards at the door of the house.
Bodyguards guard outside the palace, Langguan is on duty at the palace gate, and eunuchs and ministers are mostly in the palace. This should be distinguished. Regardless of whether they are Langguan or bodyguards, although they are on duty in the palace, they are usually not allowed to enter the palace.
The people who served in the palace were still ministers.
Zhao Si was standing at the door of the room where the First Emperor handled government affairs.
There is usually no one standing in this position, and it is not a permanent duty position. It can be seen as a way for the First Emperor to express his closeness and respect.
Meng Yi, Wang Li, Li Xin, Meng Tian, and Wang Ben have all stood in this position.
"How long do you have to stand there?" Zhao Si asked. He couldn't just stand there dryly every day, with the pestle there like a mallet.
"Then it depends on what Your Majesty wants..." This position has its advantages and disadvantages.
Meng Yi still goes to stand for two days from time to time.
In short, when did the First Emperor get off work and when did Zhao Si get off work? If the First Emperor didn't sleep, Zhao Si also had to stay up late.
But there is an advantage to this location.
So close, so close!
And the symbolic meaning is greater than the meaning of guarding. Standing here is not really for you to guard. There are Langguan on duty at the palace gate, forbidden troops patrolling outside the palace, and many ministers inside the palace. To put it bluntly, Zhao Si's position is there for viewing.
Therefore... Zhao Si's most important duty has never been holding a halberd.
The First Emperor had a habit of occasionally asking about some political affairs when Lang Guan was standing guard at a close distance. He didn't really want people to stand there and act as mascots all day long.
"Do a good job, Your Majesty values you very much!" Meng Yi patted Zhao Si on the shoulder and said what he had said before.
The First Emperor usually occasionally selected Lang Guan to guard the door, and they were also in pairs. Indeed, they usually gathered the two generals Heng Ha. Meng Yi was the first exception, Li Xin was the second exception, and Zhao Si was the third.
And usually there are not necessarily two or three days in a month like this.
A situation like Zhao Si's is extremely rare.
The First Emperor rarely put people at the door and imprisoned them as soon as he came up, without even having time to familiarize himself with the specific matters of Lang Zhongling.
Unless the First Emperor planned to train Tidian Zhao Si personally.
