This moment caused an uproar in the court hall.

Some seasoned officials have clearly seen that the big waves of the new dynasty are beginning to come.

The emperor's face was calm, and he continued: "The responsibility of the governor's office is very heavy. The governor Ji Ping is old, so he must find someone to help him. Pei Jin, the general of the imperial army, has been in charge of the imperial army for more than ten years, and there are no mistakes. All the armies of the Jin Dynasty are well-known, I have discussed with the governor, and decided to promote Pei Jin, the general of the imperial army, as the right governor of the governor's office."

After the emperor said these words, as long as they were in the Weiyang Palace, they basically understood.

The emperor is not going to take the Dudu Mansion, but to take the Imperial Army!

After saying this, the Son of Heaven turned his head to look at the eunuch Xiao Zheng.

"Recite the decree."

Xiao Zheng unfolded the imperial edict respectfully, and sang: "Pei Jin, General of the Forbidden Army, accept the edict."

Pei Jin was also standing in the first row of generals. After the emperor said the words just now, he was a little stupid. After hearing Xiao Zheng's words, this Pei Sanlang stepped forward in a daze and knelt down on his knees.

"Minister Pei Jin, accept the imperial edict."

Holding the imperial decree in his hand, Xiao Zheng began to read it eloquently.

The contents of the imperial decree, in fact, Emperor Taikang had already said it just now, but now he just repeated it in a gorgeous parallel prose. Pei Jin lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Li Xin, Marquis of Jing'an, who was standing not far away from him, clearly saw the general of the Forbidden Army and was frowning.

Xiao Zheng quickly finished reading the imperial decree, but he only read the imperial decree promoting Pei Jin, but he didn't say who should take over the vacant General of the Forbidden Army.

Pei Jin held the imperial decree in both hands and then kowtowed to the Emperor Taikang to thank him, then stood up and bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, my minister...how can you be able to enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion as the right governor? I was originally from a military household. The status is shallow, but thanks to the promotion of the late emperor, I was able to take charge of the imperial army for the emperor, and the late emperor also told me that the minister has reached the peak of the position of the general."

Pei Jin took a deep breath, bowed his head and said, "The Metropolitan Government's Mansion has always been in the hands of nobles, and I dare not enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. Your Majesty, please take it back..."

The emperor was not unhappy, but just chuckled: "General Pei's words are wrong. Ye Guogong was also from a military family. He was the right governor of the capital governor's mansion more than ten years ago. Now you are in this position, General Pei. , what's wrong?"

The emperor gave Pei Jin a faint look.

"Could it be that General Pei thinks that this official is too small, so he can't directly become the governor?"

"I...don't dare."

Pei Jin lowered his head and clasped his fists, then gritted his teeth and said, "I dare to ask Your Majesty, who is Your Majesty going to send to be in charge of the Imperial Army when I leave the Imperial Army?"

The Son of Heaven said indifferently: "The loyal and brave Marquis Jingde has meritorious deeds. I am going to worship him as the general of the Forbidden Army and take charge of the Forbidden Army for me."

Until now, the emperor has not mentioned Li Xin's name.

Because Li Xin was too young.

He is making trouble in the Ministry of War, and others can pretend not to see it, but if Emperor Taikang wants to put the national capital of the Jin Dynasty in the hands of a young man, the civil and military officials in Weiyang Palace will definitely not willing.

Therefore, the appointment of Li Xin had to be done secretly.

Pei Jin took a few deep breaths, and hissed: "Your Majesty, Hou Jingde has been following the minister for the past few months. He has the foundation to lead troops, but his prestige in the imperial army is not enough. Your Majesty, please think twice."

"I've thought twice about it."

Emperor Taikang was a little unhappy.

"Why, I promoted the general, but the general doesn't want to, does he?"

Pei Jin shook his head quickly.

"I dare not..."

"Since you dare not, this matter is settled."

Emperor Taikang stood up directly from his chair, waved his hand and said, "During this time, you should first go to the Governor's Mansion to study hard with the Governor. If there is anything wrong with the imperial army, I will still use you."

"All right."

The emperor yawned.

"If it's okay, let's go back."

The court meeting ended, but neither Li Xin nor Hou Jingde left.

As the two generals who are about to take over the Imperial Army, Emperor Taikang has too much to say to them.

Hou Jingde is alright, since last year's palace change, he has been assigned to be Pei Jin's deputy in the Forbidden Army. After more than half a year, he has become more or less familiar with the Forbidden Army, while Li Xin's eyes are darkened. If he takes over at this time For the imperial army, they had to rely on the people sent by Chen Guogong's mansion.

But it doesn't matter.

Li Xin didn't care about this.

For him, whether it is the Habayashi Guard or the Forbidden Army, it is just a stage in life, because none of them can truly become Li Xin's people. After turning their faces, it is clear at a glance which side these forbidden troops will stand on.

The emperor was worried about Pei Jin because Pei Jin had been in the imperial army for more than ten years, and he belonged to him, so Pei Jin had to be removed. As for Li Xin and Hou Jingde, they were destined to only speak for him The emperor is in charge of the army.

For Li Xin, the Forbidden Army is just a ladder for him to climb up. In terms of reliability, it is not even as good as Habayashi Guard.

After the imperial court, not only Li Xin and Hou Jingde were left behind, but also Ji Ping, the governor of the governor's mansion. The emperor took the elder of the Ji family to talk in detail in the study.

As for the two of Li Hou, they could only wait in the side hall of Weiyang Palace.

Fortunately, both of them had stools, and Hou Jingde's huge buttocks only dared to sit on half of them cautiously.

It can't be blamed for his timidity. In fact, all the courtiers entered the palace like this, including the Duke Haoran, who just sat there, expressing that they were intimidated by the might of the emperor and terrified.

As for Li Xin, he should be more casual. Since he came back from Yongzhou, he has come to the palace eight or nine times, if not ten times. As long as he is polite to the emperor, these little rules can't restrain him.

After the two of them waited for a while, Hou Jingde finally couldn't bear it anymore, secretly sat next to Li Xin, and spoke in a low voice.

"Brother Li, when do you think His Majesty will summon us?"

Li Xin didn't want to talk to him at first, but instead of hitting the smiling face, he hesitated for a moment and replied slowly.

"I'm afraid it will be a while."

The emperor took a great risk in promoting Pei Jin to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, because in terms of authority, the Right Governor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is much higher than the General of the Imperial Army, who can only control the Imperial Army , and the two governors of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion can theoretically dispatch soldiers and horses from all over the country!

Therefore, it is necessary to firmly restrain Pei Jin's power. This is an extremely important matter. Naturally, Emperor Taikang has to discuss it with the left governor.

Hou Jingde said to Li Xin with a smile: "Why is Brother Li so divided now? Could it be that he forgot that we all went out of the Habayashi Guard together, and Brother Yu will point to Brother Li to lead the way in the future."

Hou Jingde is not stupid, but he is definitely not smart. Otherwise, he, the son of Lord Hou, would not be hanging around in the position of Habayashi Wei Zuoro in his 40s. Although this person is not very smart, he thinks people.

At the beginning, Li Xin led him to jump out of the Habayashi Guard's booth and made him a third-rank general. He decided to work with Li Xin, a smart man, so that he could sit safely.
