Unparalleled Concubine

"However, it's better for Marquis Li not to cooperate with the Jingzhao Mansion, then the general's personal enmity with your mansion may be avenged at this time."

After leaving Pingnanhou's mansion, Li Xin took a few jars of wine and went to Chen Guogong's mansion. Old man Ye was well prepared and nodded happily.

In the old man's small courtyard, Li Xin sat down and asked for advice: "Grandpa, after the division of generals in Beijing is reduced, the defense will indeed be more empty. What do you think His Majesty will do?"

Ye Cheng raised his head and took a sip of his wine, then glanced at Li Xin.

"You do not know?"

Li Xin shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Old man Ye took another sip of wine, and after praising the good wine, he smiled at Li Xin: "Your Majesty is going to form Qianniuwei."

Li Xin's face changed slightly.

"Qianniuwei?"

Ye Cheng chuckled: "It's not the Qianniuwei during Emperor Wu's time, but another yamen similar to Habayashiwei was built, named after Qianniuwei."

During the period of Emperor Wu, the Habayashi Guard was divided into two, and the one stationed in the palace was called Qianniu Guard, who was in charge of guarding the sword and guarding the servants. It was only renamed the inner guard after the Chengde Dynasty.

Today, the Son of Heaven wants to re-establish the Qianniu Guard. One of the purposes is naturally to supplement the defense of the capital and fill the emptiness after the reduction of the trilogy, and the more important purpose is...to check and balance the Habayashi Guard!

In the previous Pangong change, the Ye family's trilogy naturally contributed a lot, but the main force was Habayashi Wei, that is to say, Habayashi Wei, the emperor's personal influence, sometimes may not be in the hands of the emperor.

So the new emperor would naturally want to form another yamen similar to Habayashi Guard to check and balance Habayashi Guard.

This point is much better than that of Habayashi Wei's left and right battalions restraining each other.

Li Xinxin secretly sighed.

The former His Royal Highness the King of Wei has only been emperor for a few days, and his methods have become more and more sophisticated.

One looked up at Old Man Ye, and asked, "How did the old man know?"

"Your Majesty wants Ye Mao to be the general of Qianniuwei."

Ye Mao is the little Duke of Chen Guogong's mansion, the future heir of the Ye family, although he is young and has no achievements, but this status alone is enough for him to be a general.

Ye Cheng glanced at Li Xin with a half-smile, and then chuckled: "The old man told Ye Mao to refuse, this kid is not yet mature enough, it's okay to beat others, he is not suitable to be the leader somewhere, otherwise Something is bound to happen."

Li Xin closed his eyes, and after digesting the information, he got up and bent over to Ye Cheng, "Thank you, old man, for your reminder. This junior has to go to Zhong Shuai's place, so I won't bother old man."

Ye Cheng glanced at Li Xin with a smile.

"Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Li Xin would naturally feel uncomfortable!

He ran back and forth with His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and now he finally succeeded. It turned out that he was the one who offended others, and Ye Mao didn't have to do anything, and he could be in the same position as him.

Moreover, this Qianniuwei...

It was clearly made by the disgusting Habayashi Mamoru!

Li Xin took a deep breath, and said, "The emperor's mind is like this. Although the younger generation is a little uncomfortable, it is understandable, and it will be fine in a few days."

"If it's just a Qianniuwei, that's okay. After all, you are now the Marquis of Jing'an, the court's military servant. Whether it's the Habayashi Guard or the Qianniuwei, it's a bit small for you..."

Ye Cheng's expression was calm.

"But His Majesty asked you to come forward to be this villain and offend these generals in the capital. You will feel uncomfortable, won't you?"

Ye Cheng stood up, stretched out his hand and patted Li Xin's shoulder, and heaved a long sigh.

"Working for the emperor, that's what it looks like, and you'll be a little angry."

As he said that, the old man said in a low voice: "When I suppressed the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but was imprisoned in the capital by all means, how angry did I feel in my heart?"

"Let's endure, endure..."

"I'll get used to it after a while..."

Chapter 333 Brother?

After leaving Ye's house, it was almost evening. Li Xin thought about it, but didn't go to Zhuang's house immediately.

Because the patriarch of the Zhong family, Chong Xuantong, is not in the Zhongfu in the capital, but in the Forbidden Army camp outside the city. At this time, the Forbidden Army is no longer stationed near the capital, but is stationed in the area around the capital, twenty or thirty miles away from the capital. where.

It's too late to come and go, anyway, the deadline given by the emperor was years ago, and there are still ten days left at this moment, so I'm not in a hurry.

He went into Miyagi.

This morning I sent two princes out of Beijing, and in the afternoon I went to two generals to make trouble. These things have to be reported to the new emperor, otherwise the new emperor may write down a small book, and the loss outweighs the gain.

Now, Li Xin has been authorized to enter the inner palace directly without notification, so he entered Weiyang Palace smoothly.

It is now the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month in the [-]th year of Chengde, which means that the emperor has been enthroned for nearly ten days, and it should take five or six days to move to Weiyang Palace. At this moment, everything in Weiyang Palace has been prepared.It seems that there is no difference from Changle Palace.

When Li Xin came in, the emperor was flipping through the memorial books in the study. After seeing Li Xin, the new emperor immediately threw down the copybook and ignored him, pulling Li Xin to sit down on a chair beside him.

"Brother Xin, tell me quickly how the two imperial brothers reacted?"

Li Xin bowed his head and said: "His Royal Highness Zhao said...thank you for not killing him. His Royal Highness Qi said something deeper. He said... He said that he hoped that His Majesty would not start party disputes and not pursue those who fell to the Qi Palace before. official."

The emperor sneered and said, "If we don't hold them accountable, why don't we leave them in court?"

On this point, the emperor and Li Xin still have the same opinion.

Revenge will make people dare not provoke you. Only by severely punishing those officials of King Qi and his party will no one in the court dare to oppose the emperor in the future.

Li Xin took a deep breath, and continued: "The two princes seem to have put their minds to rest. His Highness Zhao Wang is upright, and he will not make any further moves. It's just that His Royal Highness Qi is a little bit sinister, and he probably still has some evil thoughts."

The emperor waved his hands with a smile: "This is a family matter of my family. I will send someone to watch over the fourth brother. I don't care about Brother Xin. I heard that Brother Xin went to Pingnan Hou Mansion and Ye Family today. Is there any progress?"

"Chen Guogong agreed to cut down the trilogy, but Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, was a bit reluctant. He asked His Majesty, if all the operas in the middle of the capital were driven out of the capital and there was trouble, who would defend Jinling?"

"I'm going to discuss this matter with Brother Xin."

The Son of Heaven smiled and said: "After reducing the number of parts, the manpower in the capital is somewhat insufficient, but I heard from several prime ministers that when Emperor Xianwu was in power, there was still a Qianniu Guard in the capital with a staff of 3000 people. I plan to recruit again. Qianniuwei, what does Brother Xin think?"

Li Xinxin complained secretly.

The position of General Qianniuwei Zhonglang has been fixed, and he is still pretending to ask me at this time!

Li Dashilang took a deep breath, and showed a sincere smile on his face: "Your Majesty is wise, you will only add a considerable amount of expenses to the household department..."

Every team of imperial guards is made with money. Take Habayashi Wei as an example. Under normal circumstances, a full set of equipment for a Habayashi guard, from armor to horizontal swords, to bows and crossbows, totals more than [-]. For [-] Habayashi guards, the equipment alone is [-] guan money, which also includes the food and equipment maintenance of the Habayashi army, etc. For just one Habayashi guard, the equipment will be deducted, and it will cost a year. Dropped nearly [-] guan!
