Chapter 381: Jin Yiwei
Outside the palace gate.
In the former inspection and health center, Hu Fei was wearing a python robe given to him by Zhu Yuanzhang, a jade belt around his waist, and standing with his hands behind his back. He looked completely different from the playboy image he once had, and he had a touch of majesty and domineering about him.
The inspection school has been abolished, so it became the new Jinyi Guardhouse.
Returning here again, Hu Fei couldn't help but feel a little emotional. From the first time he came here to capture Han Jiang, to the second time he was a prisoner here, to the third time he came back as the master, it seemed like just a blink of an eye.
The same thing happened.
However, Hu Fei remembered all of the thrilling moments he had experienced during this period, so he knew how hard-won all of this was now.
Now, he is already the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and his official rank has been upgraded by two levels, becoming the third rank. Moreover, he has resigned from the post of minister in the Governor's Mansion and the post of Doctor of the Imperial College. From now on, he only needs to serve as the commander of the Jinyi Guards.
Just value.
"Lord Commander, this is the inspection roster you requested. Please take a look."
At this moment, Han Jiang slowly walked over, bowed respectfully, and then presented a booklet with both hands.
Hu Fei came back to his senses, turned to look at Han Jiang, and then winked at Pei Jie who was standing aside.
After Pei Jie understood, he quickly walked to Han Jiang and took the roster.
"Deputy Commander Han, I know that those in the inspection school are all your subordinates who have been personally trained by you. However, since His Majesty has granted me the right to screen and select strictly, those who are unqualified are not qualified to join the Jinyiwei.
, it must be cleared.”
"No matter who you are, as long as they are not capable enough, they are not worthy of staying in Jinyiwei. I hope you understand this."
Hu Fei looked at Han Jiang and said calmly.
"I understand that I understand that everything is decided by the commander-in-chief."
Han Jiang hurriedly bowed his hands and said respectfully.
"Very well, if you have nothing else to do, just go down first."
Hu Fei nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said.
"I resign from my humble position!"
Han Jiang agreed, slowly turned around and left, his forehead already soaked with cold sweat.
Looking at Han Jiang's leaving figure, a disdainful sneer flashed across the corner of Hu Fei's mouth.
"I'll leave this matter to you and Mu Ping. Do you know what to do?"
Hu Fei glanced at the school inspection roster in Pei Jie's hand and said calmly.
"clear!"
Pei Jie nodded heavily and said in a deep voice.
At this moment, Mu Ping walked over quickly from not far away.
After the Jin Yiwei was established, Mu Ping finally no longer had to work as a waiter in Hong Bin Tower. He was transferred to the Jin Yiwei by Hu Fei and became the governor together with Pei Jie.
"Master, Qi Yun and the others are here."
Mu Ping walked closer, bowed respectfully, and whispered.
"From now on, among the Jinyi Guards, you are no longer allowed to address yourself as young master."
Hu Fei raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Commander!"
Mu Ping was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly raised his hands and said.
Hu Fei said nothing and walked straight towards the command post.
After the Jin Yiwei was established, he gave priority to selecting Qi Yun and others who had followed him in the last battle at Jiming Mountain as the first group of confidants he recruited into the Jin Yiwei.
Command post.
When Hu Fei stepped in, Qi Yun and others hurriedly saluted respectfully, and everyone stood in awe.
Hu Fei glanced at everyone, nodded slightly, went straight to the desk and sat down, looking at the people in front of him, with a satisfied smile on his lips.
The faces of Qi Yun and others were also full of excitement, because Hu Fei promised them that as long as they came back from Jiming Mountain alive, it would be the time for them to make contributions. Now that the opportunity has really come, so in addition to being grateful,
, full of excitement.
"In the past few days, it is up to you to follow Pei Jie in the army to select capable people to join the Jinyiwei. However, we cannot use all of our own people. However, those who are not outstanding in ability should not be forcibly recruited into the Jinyiwei."
"From today on, you will be a member of the Imperial Guard and no longer a mere soldier in the army."
Hu Fei looked at Qi Yun and said slowly.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"
When Qi Yun heard this, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly saluted respectfully.
"I'll tell you all again. From now on, among the Jinyi Guards, you can only call me the commander, and no other titles are allowed. Especially you, you can't let outsiders see that you have been mine for a long time, otherwise everyone will lose their
Brain!”
Hu Fei frowned, looked at Qi Yun and others and said loudly.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yun quickly nodded in agreement.
"Okay, Jin Yiwei has just been established. There are still many things waiting for you to do, so you can go about your business."
Hu Fei hesitated for a moment, waved his hands and said.
Everyone agreed, bowed their hands, and slowly exited the office.
After everyone left, Hu Fei took a deep breath, slowly leaned on the back of the chair, and closed his eyes slightly.
Chundie, who was standing aside, glanced at Hu Fei and silently poured a cup of tea for Hu Fei.
As a daughter, Chundie cannot join the Jinyiwei, but this does not mean that Hu Fei cannot bring a maid with him in the future, so Chundie can still follow Hu Fei in and out of the Jinyiwei at will.
"You should go out first, I want to be alone for a while."
Hu Fei closed his eyes and said lightly.
Chundie agreed, bowed her hands, and then slowly walked out of the office and closed the door.
Hu Fei leaned back on the chair, smelled the faint fragrance of tea, and gradually fell into deep thought.
...
Princess Mansion.
In the evening, Hu Fei left the Jinyi Guardhouse and returned home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Hu Weiyong pacing in front of the main hall door.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Hu Weiyong turned his head and looked over. He saw his son in a python robe at a glance. His eyes lit up and he froze in place.
"Why are you here?"
Hu Fei walked closer and asked calmly.
However, Hu Weiyong was admiring his son who seemed to have changed in an instant, and did not hear Hu Fei's words, his eyes were shining.
"What? I don't know you anymore?"
Hu Fei couldn't help but ask, raising his voice deliberately.
This time Hu Weiyong finally heard clearly and came back to his senses, with a happy smile on his face.
"When you wear these clothes, I suddenly don't seem to recognize you."
Hu Weiyong looked at Hu Fei and said with a smile.
"It's just a piece of clothing, why is it like this?"
Hu Fei smiled, shook his head and walked straight into the main hall.
"It's just a piece of clothing? Do you know the symbolic meaning of this python robe?"
Hu Weiyong was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed Hu Fei into the main hall and couldn't help but ask.
"What's the point?"
Hu Fei asked with interest while sitting on the chair.
"This robe is similar to the Longgun robe worn by His Majesty. It is not among the official robes, but a robe specially awarded by grace. To be able to obtain such a robe is a great honor for you by Your Majesty!"
"Do you think anyone can receive such a blessing?"
Hu Weiyong looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.
"Others may be envious, but in my eyes, he is just a piece of clothing. I only wear it to suit my status as a commander."
Hu Fei smiled and said nonchalantly.
After hearing Hu Fei's answer, Hu Weiyong sighed helplessly and stopped talking.
"You haven't told me yet, why did you come here suddenly?"
Hu Fei looked at Hu Weiyong and continued to ask.
"I came here to ask you, why is it that such a big thing as the abolition of the inspection school and the establishment of the Jinyiwei, you have never mentioned it to me before, so suddenly?"
Hu Weiyong looked at Hu Fei and asked slightly reproachfully.
"I just had the idea. I happened to be summoned by Your Majesty after I recovered from my injury, so I went into the palace to mention it to Your Majesty. I didn't expect Your Majesty to agree so quickly."
Hu Fei smiled and said casually.
He did not tell anyone about this matter, and everyone only found out about it after Zhu Yuanzhang announced it in public in the court.
But the fact was not as he explained to Hu Weiyong just now. In fact, the idea of establishing Jinyiwei before Zhu Yuanzhang had already come up when he first met Mao Xiang.
Although there is no detailed record in the history of the Ming Dynasty who the first commander of the Jinyiwei was, if he remembers correctly, according to the speculation of later generations, the first commander of the Jinyiwei was Mao Xiang.
So when he got to know Mao Xiang, he became determined to kill Mao Xiang and become the first commander of the Jinyiwei. If someone like Mao Xiang was really allowed to become the commander, I don’t know how many officials and people would suffer.
.
After listening to Hu Fei's explanation, Hu Weiyong nodded silently, hesitantly sitting next to Hu Fei, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was worried about something...
