Chapter 159 Rewards and Special Training
Zhong Ning originally thought that since the Duke Fuguo's Mansion was going to apologize today, they would definitely take the opportunity to present the jade to her, so she made up a name for the jade, or poisoned her. In any case, she would find a way to make her keep the jade and keep it with her every day.
But now she suddenly felt that she had thought too simply.
If this jade can really successfully exchange souls, instead of offering it to myself and wasting it for a Fu Ying, it would be better to offer it directly to the emperor and turn the tables!
But, all this was just her guess!
But if you want to confirm this guess, you just need to send someone to see if the jade on Fu Ying is still there, and you will know!
"Xue Ming!" Zhong Ning suddenly shouted. Xue Ming was leaning against the window outside the hall and eating an apple. When he heard Zhong Ning's voice, he jumped into the room.
Zhong Ning:........
"Next time you can go through the main entrance!"
Xue Ming nodded obediently, staring at Zhong Ning with sharp eyes.
"Well, are your injuries feeling better?" Zhong Ning asked.
Xue Ming raised his arm and said expressionlessly, "Your Highness, if you wait any longer, the wound will have healed."
"Ahem..." Zhong Ning was almost forced to laugh.
Xue Ming frowned slightly. She was right. When she was training in the Dark Guard Camp, she suffered many more injuries every day.
This little injury is just a small matter now.
She didn't care at all.
"Thank you for your hard work in protecting me during this trip!" Zhong Ning said seriously, "I will reward each of you with fifty taels of gold!"
Xue Ming's eyes lit up slightly.
With so much money, I can definitely buy a lot of delicious food.
"Tonight, go to the Jiaofangsi and find a woman named Fu Ying. See if she has a jade pendant made of smooth white jade, shaped like half a Tai Chi."
"If she has this jade, find a way to bring it back. If not, forget it."
Zhong Ning gave careful instructions, and Xue Ming nodded slightly after listening, indicating that he had remembered it.
"Just remember your mission. Be careful when you go out at night and don't let anyone discover your identity." After saying that, Zhong Ning waved his hand and ordered Jingxin to bring a big apple and put it in Xue Ming's hand, "Eat it!"
Xue Ming felt touched as he weighed the apple, then with a snap, he took a big bite of the flesh, his little mouth bulging like a little squirrel.
Then he turned around and left the hall, still guarding outside the hall as usual.
Until Su Xin came over with a tray full of gold.
She threw away the fruit core in her hand, picked up her share of the reward, and hid it carefully.
......
On the side of the Imperial Guards.
The two imperial guards had fully awakened by this time and were lying on the bed surrounded by a group of people.
Because this journey was extremely dangerous, but fortunately Her Royal Highness the Princess was generous to them. Not only did she let the imperial physician treat them, she also gave them many precious and rare medicines to help them heal their injuries.
They had been injured before, but most of the time it was just the young disciples in the Imperial Hospital who prescribed them some random medicine.
Where have you ever received such preferential treatment?
To be honest, I have never experienced such a serious injury.
When Su Xin brought people and carried a few boxes here, the whole imperial guard camp was in an uproar.
It’s because the princess is so generous.
All the imperial guards who went out with her were rewarded.
The two who were seriously injured were directly rewarded with fifty taels of gold.
Those who come to support later will receive ten taels of silver each.
This made the other imperial guards who stayed behind in the princess's mansion jealous.
Originally, they felt that it was a loss of status for them, the emperor's imperial guards, to be assigned here to protect a little princess.
But now I feel that protecting the princess has its own benefits.
After all, their number was limited, and the princess was very generous, so the rewards she gave them were much higher than usual.
If it were in the palace, how could there be such generous rewards?
They may be envious, but they also know that those who have made contributions should be rewarded. How can they deserve rewards when they have done nothing?
If you really want a reward, you can only wait for the right opportunity, and then you will have the honor to travel with Her Royal Highness the Princess in the future.
They stared at the glittering gold and every member of the Imperial Guards who received the reward with fiery eyes, and at this moment they felt a sour taste in their mouths.
Fifty taels of gold, this is probably more money than they can earn in their entire lifetime.
Just the ten taels of silver alone would take them half a year's salary. Who has ever had such a good thing as receiving so many rewards for a single trip?
Seeing this, Su Xin smiled slightly and said loudly:
"His Highness said that the brothers who stayed behind at the Princess's Mansion also made contributions, so he specially ordered people to purchase watermelons from Xishi Street for everyone to taste!"
The imperial guards who did not accompany the princess on the tour were all excited.
They did nothing, yet they were rewarded just for staying in the mansion.
Watermelon is a rare thing. Her Royal Highness the Princess is really generous.
But next time, if they can travel with Her Royal Highness the Princess, they will definitely risk their lives to protect Her Royal Highness, not because the reward is high, but simply because they think Her Royal Highness the Princess is so kind.
"In addition, His Highness has specifically instructed the kitchen to add an extra meat dish to tonight's dinner to give everyone a treat!"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but smile.
They had only been at the princess's mansion for a few days, but they were already living a good life with meat to eat every day.
I just don’t know what kind of meat will be for tonight’s meat dish?
It must be water basin mutton!
After Su Xin left, Jing Wuchang gathered everyone together and began to give a lecture.
Through this trip, he discovered that the individual combat effectiveness of the imperial guards was too weak.
Those two secret guards, including Her Royal Highness the Princess herself, were able to kill more than a dozen people alone when fighting against the enemy.
But the two imperial guards could only be besieged and killed.
Although the Imperial Guards fight in teams, which does not require strong individual abilities but only the strongest teamwork, they are now arranged in front of the princess and must be prepared for individual combat at any time.
It can be seen from this that improving personal combat power has become the current first choice.
"From today on, all training will be doubled in intensity!"
Jing Wuchang spoke in a cold voice, and there was a wailing sound from below.
"For those who don't want to participate in special training, there is only one condition!" Jing Wuchang felt that it was time to give them a blow.
"Her Royal Highness has several guards beside her who are quite skilled. If one of you can challenge them in a one-on-one fight and defeat one of them, you won't need to participate in the following special training!"
All the imperial guards became excited when they heard Jing Wuchang's words.
They knew that Her Royal Highness the Princess was surrounded by four guards, two men and two women. They might not be able to defeat the two male guards, but they could certainly challenge the two female guards.
Women's strength is several times weaker than men's.
Even if they have some skills, they cannot compare to their foundation gained from years of training.
"General, are you serious?" a guard suddenly asked loudly.
Jing Wuchang replied expressionlessly, "Seriously! So you guys need to train hard this month!"
