Chapter 589: The general is in place
In Qianyang Palace, Deng Sheng looked at the candidates for the generals of Feipengwei and Taishanwei presented by Deng Hao, and felt relieved. Deng Hao finally understood what he meant. Most of the generals presented were Since the generals of Deng Guo have gradually entered their twilight years, the situation of the replacement of the old and the new has been placed in front of everyone, and the establishment of the new four guards this time is the best time.

Most of the generals selected this time will be the mainstay of Deng Hao after Deng Hao succeeds to the throne. It stands to reason that Deng Hao needs to be promoted one by one after Deng Hao succeeds to the throne. Most of the generals were promoted by Deng Sheng himself, and all of them were veterans who made great contributions to Deng Guo. When he was still there, he could still hold him back, but if he was gone, would Deng Hao have the ability to hold him back? Woolen cloth?

Therefore, Deng Sheng intends to remove obstacles for Deng Hao before he succeeds to the throne, and personally promote the replacement of old and new. As the most powerful emperor in the history of Deng, even if Deng Sheng now orders those veterans in the army to hand over their military power and resign from their positions, they will There will be no complaints, but it will be different if it is Deng Hao, so Deng Sheng must accumulate more strength for Deng Hao before he succeeds to the throne. Hands, to clean up those rebellious and meritorious ministers one by one, this is something Deng Sheng is unwilling to do.

"Hao'er, have you discussed this list with the General's Governor's Mansion?" Deng Sheng asked.

Deng Hao nodded, and said: "I would like to report to my father, after drawing up the list, my son immediately went to the General's Dudu's Mansion, and with General Yue Fei, General Yang Yanzhao of Hussars, and General Chang of Cheqi After discussing in Yuchun, the final result is based on their suggestions, if there is something wrong, I hope the emperor will correct it."

"That's good." Deng Sheng nodded and said, "Then do as you wish." After finishing speaking, Deng Sheng picked up a list from the desk, handed it to Deng Hao, and said, " Nowadays, the people in power in the court and the army are all veterans who have followed their father for many years. Although they are not too old to be reused, they are already in their twilight years. Very high, when the father was around, they were still docile, but once you inherited the position of the father, you may not be able to suppress them, so in the past few years, the father will clean up these people one by one and let them withdraw from the court. It is important for the imperial court to take care of their lives, but there are people who are indispensable to the imperial court. These are the rising stars of my great Deng's rise in recent years, just take a look, these people will be the right arm and right arm of Yuji Tianxia in the future."

Deng Hao solemnly took the list in Deng Sheng's hand, opened it, and found that the people inside were all capable ministers and famous generals in their forties, such as Li Jing, General of Tianwuwei, Deng Zhong, General of Wudangwei, Inspector of Shuzhong Road, etc. Zhuge Liang, Xuzhou governor Huo Guang and so on.

"These people can be used well, enough to keep my Great Deng prosperous for decades. As for the future, it depends on yourself, but you don't need to get in touch with these people too early. They are all smart and cautious people. If you show your attitude easily, at least if I’m still here, they won’t have too much contact with you, and what you have to do is to keep showing them your favor,” Deng Sheng said.

"Yes, father, please rest assured, my son understands." Deng Hao nodded and said.

After leaving Qianyang Palace, Deng Hao sent people to summon Xue Dingshan, Yang Zongbao and other generals of Feipengwei and Taishanwei to Wancheng with his East Palace order, preparing to complete the formation of the two guards. The generals of Qianniuwei and An Guowei were submitted to Deng Sheng, and after Deng Sheng's approval, they also sent people to summon the generals on the list to Wancheng.

In the 28th year of Qianyuan, on the eighth day of the eighth month, Xue Dingshan and Yang Zongbao arrived in Wancheng. After arriving in Wancheng, Yang Zongbao immediately ran home to see his father Yang Yanzhao.

In Wancheng, Duke of Lu's mansion, Yang's father and son withdrew all the servants, and the two stayed in the study.

"Father, this time His Royal Highness issued an edict to summon the boy to Wancheng, intending to let the minister take up the post of General Feipengwei. However, there are countless generals in the army who are more experienced than the boy. Why did this position fall to the boy? where?" Yang Zongbao asked strangely.

When he received the decree, Yang Zongbao had this doubt. It stands to reason that if the new four guards are set up in the army, those who can serve as generals of one guard must be generals with outstanding abilities and qualifications in the army. Why? It was not my turn, why would I stand out this time, and not only myself, but also Xue Dingshan, who debuted at the same time as me, will soon be the General of Taishan Wei. Isn't the court worried about causing dissatisfaction among veterans in the army?
Yang Yanzhao smiled and said: "You can have such self-knowledge, I am very happy as a father, yes, in terms of ability and qualifications, there are many people in the army who are far superior to you, but this time, your majesty will hand over Feipengwei and Taishanwei. Gave it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Father, my child still doesn't understand that well." Yang Zongbao still didn't quite understand, what does this have to do with him being in charge of Feipengwei?

Yang Yanzhao explained: "Those who are qualified to be a general of the first guard in the army are all well-known generals in the army, and they all have made great achievements, but these people cannot be controlled by His Royal Highness, and you and Xue Dingshan It's different, you are all the best of the younger generation, you have abilities, but you lack qualifications, and you are about the same age as His Royal Highness, you will not contradict His Royal Highness's orders, and in recent years, His Majesty has been The purpose of promoting young generals is to pave the way for His Royal Highness, this is why you can stand out."

"Father, do you mean that His Majesty intends to train us to become the arms of His Highness the Crown Prince who will rule the world in the future?" This is the point. If Yang Zongbao still doesn't understand, then he doesn't have to be the General Fei Pengwei .

Yang Yanzhao nodded and said: "That's it, but it's too early to say these words. Your Majesty is still in the prime of life, and the day when His Royal Highness will succeed to the throne is far away. You are just His Majesty's current choice. Or if a better candidate appears, you will also be replaced. So what you need to do next is to cooperate with His Highness the Crown Prince as much as possible, and lead Fei Pengwei well, but don't be too heart-to-heart with His Highness, you must know that the one who is in charge now is Your Majesty, although you nominally belong to His Highness the Crown Prince, you can only be loyal to His Majesty."

Yang Yanzhao also warned Yang Zongbao that it is okay to obey Deng Hao's orders, but he should not be blind. After all, with Deng Sheng's physical condition, it is not a big problem to live for another ten or twenty years. Deng Hao, do you have other thoughts?

Yang Zongbao nodded. He also understood the pros and cons. Although Deng Hao is the crown prince, Deng Sheng is the most supreme person in Deng Guo. Although according to the current situation, Deng Hao's position as the crown prince is very stable, but in another In ten or twenty years, who knows what will happen?

The next day, Deng Hao summoned Yang Zongbao and Xue Dingshan, who had already arrived in Wancheng, to the barracks outside Wancheng. Arrived.

When he came to the big tent of the Chinese army, Deng Hao first briefly introduced the basic situation of Feipengwei and Taishanwei to Yang Zongbao and Xue Dingshan.

Then he said to the two of them: "Two generals, you have already understood the situation of Feipengwei and Taishanwei, and a group of generals and military advisers are also rushing to Wancheng. I am now a general, and my father handed over Feipengwei and Taishanwei to the palace, but I don't know much about military affairs, so I can only ask the two generals, hoping that the two generals can send Feipengwei and Taishanwei to the palace. Wei trained as my Great Deng's elite teacher, and he will fight in the battlefield in the future and make great achievements."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will try my best to lead Fei Pengwei (Taishan Guard) well, and I will live up to your Highness's entrustment." Yang Zongbao and Xue Dingshan said in unison.

This is a test for the two of them. If it succeeds, after Deng Hao succeeds to the throne, they will be Deng Hao's confidantes, and they will have a stage to show their ambitions. Not bad.

"It is my honor to have the help of the two generals. If you have any troubles that cannot be solved in the future, you can send someone to come to Shangli Palace to ask for help. As long as it is something that I can do, I will definitely help you." See Yang Deng Hao was very happy that Zong Bao and Xue Dingshan were so up-to-date, and immediately said that if the two of them had any troubles that could not be solved, they could directly send someone to Shangli Palace for help.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

After leaving the barracks, Deng Hao returned to Shangli Palace. With the arrival of Xue Dingshan and Yang Zongbao, the framework of Feipengwei and Taishanwei was finally set up. Waiting for the arrival of the other four generals and military advisers, Even if the formation of the two guards is complete.

As soon as he returned to Shangli Palace, Deng Hao saw the crown princess Su Qingqing teaching the emperor's grandson Deng Huan to practice calligraphy. Su Qingqing was the daughter of the late Jing Guogong Su Hong, who gave birth to Deng Huan and Deng Song. Born in 20, he is eight years old this year. His second son, Deng Song, was born in the 24th year of Qianyuan and is four years old this year. In these years, Deng Hao also took in several concubines and gave birth to two sons, Deng Biao and Deng Lin. Except for Deng Huan and Deng Song, Deng Biao and Deng Lin have no titles.

And Deng Huan and Deng Song were also conferred titles when Deng Sheng became emperor, and Deng Huan was even conferred the title of King of Wei. , in the eyes of the world, Deng Huan is already the grandson of the emperor, but there is no formal official recognition.

"The concubine (baby) has met His Highness (father)!" Seeing Deng Hao's return, Su Qingqing and Deng Huan hurriedly stopped what they were doing and saluted.

"Don't be too polite, get up!" Seeing his wife and children, Deng Hao's mood changed.

"Your Highness is in a good mood, but what is there to be happy about?" Su Qingqing asked, while Deng Huan continued to practice calligraphy.

Deng Hao nodded, and said: "The generals of Feipengwei and Taishanwei have arrived, and the burden on me is much lighter."

"So that's the case, congratulations to Your Highness, but the Royal Father handed over the Feipengwei and Taishanwei to His Highness, His Highness still needs to be careful, don't let the Royal Father down." Su Qingqing said, Deng Sheng sent the Qianniuwei And An Guowei was handed over to Deng Han and Deng Yu, which has always made Su Qingqing very worried. Although Deng Hao has repeatedly stated that Deng Han and Deng Yu will not threaten him, Su Qingqing is just worried. She always thinks that this is Deng Sheng was looking for a balance, he wanted to support Deng Han and Deng Yu to check and balance Deng Hao, so these days, Su Qingqing never let go of her heart.

After all, Deng Hao is her husband, and she and she are both hurt and prosperous. If something happens to Deng Hao, they will not be happy. Now Deng Sheng has handed over Feipengwei and Taishanwei to Deng Hao. This is Deng Hao. Hao will have the capital to consolidate his position in the future, so of course Su Qingqing hopes that Deng Hao can hold Feipengwei and Taishanwei tightly in his hands.

"Don't worry, my concubine, I'm awake!" Deng Hao also knew Su Qingqing's worries, so he could only comfort her.

Su Qingqing sighed and said: "It's a pity that my father is gone, otherwise, if he advises His Highness, His Highness wouldn't be so tired."

At this time, Su Qingqing suddenly thought of her father Su Hong. She believed that if Su Hong was still alive, her husband's strength would definitely be improved. The existence of arm wrestling with Jiang Wan, Cui Hao, and Zhang Bin has countless disciples and old officials. With him, Deng Hao would have strong support in the court. Unfortunately, after Su Hong left, the Su faction fell apart. The help that can be brought to Deng Hao now is very little.

"My concubine, don't worry, my husband's position is still very stable now. As long as I don't make any serious mistakes, even the emperor will not do anything to my husband." Seeing that Su Qingqing was feeling sad again, Deng Hao quickly comforted her. .

"Father, mother and concubine, quickly see if Huan'er's calligraphy is good!" At this time, Deng Huan, who was practicing calligraphy, shouted.

Hearing the cry of their precious son, Deng Hao and Su Qingqing let go of the sadness in their hearts and walked towards Deng Huan's place.
