Crown Tang emperor

"It is indeed Mrs. Zhang, that's right. Although the servants of the wealthy family are not related by blood, they are relatively close to each other. Besides, Mrs. Zhang has served for a long time. Taking this head can not only deter the public, but also save my aunt. In the pain of breaking the liver and intestines..."

"I, I don't know what you're talking about! Although I, auntie and I are not related by blood, we have been able to nurture you! You, what are you going to say? Heh, Yuan Si of Jian Guo? There are turmoil inside and outside these days, so if you want to Xuanwei, what can't be so fierce that you want to humiliate your relatives and disciples like this!"

Before Li Tong could finish speaking, Princess Taiping had already stood up, waving her arms and striding towards the outside of the hall, looking furious, and that Mrs. Zhang naturally followed behind, not daring to stay alone in the hall.

Sitting in the hall, Li Tong watched Princess Taiping run away in anger, and he sighed inwardly, but he didn't get up to stop them. The master and servant walked to the gate of the hall, and the guards in armor drew their knives to stop them.

"I am the princess of the Tang Dynasty, how dare you and other lowly... that person in the palace is not the current emperor..."

Once a woman throws a splash, all the nobleness and elegance are gone, and Princess Taiping is no exception. Seeing a soldier holding a knife blocking the way, she has to rush over with both hands and feet.

At this time, Li Tong's voice also came from the hall: "Catch that evil slave who deceived the Lord and disrupted the law, and don't hurt Her Royal Highness."

After the guards heard the words, they directly bypassed Princess Taiping, dragged the screaming Mrs. Zhang, and retreated.

"Stop it, stop it! Li Sanlang, do you really want to... two new members of the clan have lost their lives, and the young man humiliated me so much... blood relatives are incompatible, you, are you not afraid that people in the world will betray you and abandon you?"

After all, Princess Taiping couldn't stop the guards from advancing and retreating. She turned and staggered back to the palace, her face was distorted, and she stared at Li Tong with resentment.

"Well, since my aunt and I are close blood relatives, I should know how I am walking on thin ice and trembling. Even if the evil slave is innocent and borrows this person from my aunt, my aunt should calmly ask me if it is really beneficial to the family and the country, and It's not about fighting with me."

Li Tong sighed and stood up from the banquet, looked at Princess Taiping and continued: "Grandmother spent half her life trying to be strong, but now she is begging me because of the incompetent people in her family, which makes me feel uncomfortable and embarrassed. If it wasn't for the irresistible teaching, I would I'm afraid I won't discuss this matter with my aunt again tonight. I used money to communicate with each other before, hoping that this convenience will be available in the world, and that relatives and relatives will also benefit from it and spend it. But I didn't expect you, aunt With this coercion to gather crowds, people stole the official warehouse of Lidefang and stored it outside..."

"It turned out to be this matter... It turns out that you treated me like this because of mere materials, disregarding the family relationship between the two!"

When Princess Taiping heard this, she was taken aback for a moment, and then roared loudly, staring and stomping her feet.

"Otherwise? Does my aunt think that I want to hold you accountable for sending palace slaves into chaos, forcing me not to use the power of the capital Jijia calmly? The power is deeply entangled here, and I am afraid that I will die without a burial."

Li Tong couldn't help but sneered angrily when she saw that Princess Taiping had regained her righteous look.

"I don't, I don't have... such a thing, how dare I? It's just a few eunuchs in the palace begging, hoping that I can... I didn't agree to them at all! Be careful, the country is in such a mess. You are the only hope? Even if your aunt is self-willed, seeing my second brother die in the wild, how dare I break the taboo at the time of life and death? I really don't..."

After Princess Taiping heard this, her complexion changed suddenly again, this time she was really panicked, she folded her hands on her chest, and while responding sadly, she backed away: "I will treat you, I will treat you young lady... ...Since the disaster in the capital, I dare not sleep even more at night, and stay by my mother's side in the morning and evening! You can't accuse me like this, don't you..."

"It's because my aunt didn't dare, so I feel even more disappointed! If you dare to collude with it, at least you have a long-term plan for the future of your family and country, or you can try your best to survive. But the general situation is chaotic, you have lost your sense, aunt, and everything There is no plan, even so, I still greedy for wealth, secretly manipulated the palace people to not make reports, so that my precious soldiers could not search the countryside as much as possible. Mere wealth? That is Duji's life-saving rations, and it is the life-saving rations of Hedong soldiers. Hope to return!"

Hearing that Princess Taiping was still arguing, Li Tong was even more furious. Some people like to play with fire but they don't know how serious the consequences will be. His grandma and the three children all left their brains in their mother's womb. When it comes to ambition, one is crazy than the other.

"I was wrong, I know I was wrong... But I really don't feel disgusted. Before the four brothers took my flying money, this was a big plan you gave me, Shenzhi. A piece of flying money involves a huge amount of money. Shenzhi, you entrusted me with important matters, I must not let you down, that's why I used my slaves to coerce the losers and let them take back their goods... At that time, the whole capital was in chaos, Lidefang was full of reserves, and everyone knew that even if I didn't If the officials take it, it will definitely be stolen and squandered by other powerful people! These days, I have been begging you to allow me to leave the palace, in order to collect the property and subsidize the country!"

Seeing Li Tong's livid face angrily reprimanded, Princess Taiping no longer lost her temper, and said in a mournful voice with tears streaming down her face.

Seeing this, Li Tong just sighed: "Recently, I have been leaving room for you, aunt, when I have been in and out of the palace. After all, kinship is profound, not only in immediate adversity, but also in the future. People are outside, and if you delay for a moment, you will be in danger of being lost. Aunt, you have kept silent for a long time, do you really think you can hide the past?

Recently, the imperial court has issued an order to requisition crop materials, but half of the goods in Lidefang are missing.Those who hijack the goods are using the family relationship as their bargaining chip for personal gain.If you don't enter the city for a long time, you may become a capital for rebellion and evil!Today, the house slaves are collected and beheaded as a warning. Auntie, you only know a little about where the materials have gone, so tell me immediately, and the old things can be ignored! "

"Really, really? I said, I said... I don't know, but there are several family members and courtiers planning this matter..."

Princess Taiping finally broke down and burst into tears, but because the clothes and skirts were all messed up before, Li Tong hurriedly covered his eyes and stepped out of the palace, and led the female officer into the hall to record the confession he summoned.

Chapter 0782 No rice is hard to cook, chasing stolen goods on all sides

To regain control of an out-of-control city, the first is to rebuild order, and the second is to supply supplies.

There is no mystery in rebuilding order, as long as it is effective.Although after Li Tong entered the capital, there were some twists and turns in the political and personnel structure, but this had little impact on the order of the capital city.

After all, putting aside some trivial issues, the order of the capital city today is based on the power of force, and the force of the capital has always been firmly controlled by Li Tong alone.

Even with the addition of the reinforcements from Shanzhou and the armored soldiers recruited by Luoyang, the force of the guards in the entire capital is no more than ten thousand.Although it is still not enough to control the entire Luoyang city to a watertight, at least it can guarantee that the riots can be extinguished as soon as they occur, and that they will not be given the opportunity and time to develop on a large scale.

Now Duji's troops are roughly divided into six battalions of Yasukuni, four battalions guard the four corners of the city, and two battalions are located in the imperial city and Miyagi, initially establishing an internal and external defense framework.

The ones responsible for maintaining the law and order in the city of Fangqu are the newly recruited patrolling regiments in the city.This part has a lot of members, nearly 2 people, almost all the registered young men in Luoyang City, and the number is still increasing.

The permanent population of Luoyang City is hundreds of thousands. According to the normal population structure ratio, the number of young adults is certainly more than that.It's just that last year, a large army was formed to fight against the Turks, and a large number of Ding personnel from the capital area were transferred northward, leaving Luoyang City extremely empty of both troops and labor, which also planted the root of the subsequent turmoil.

According to the difficult state of the imperial court from last year to the beginning of this year, it seems unreasonable for Li Tong to organize such a large team of soldiers shortly after entering the capital.

But in fact, this is also normal. Even though the imperial court was still operating in a complete state when the enlistment was conducted last year, the previous enlistment model itself had blind spots that could not be covered, such as the hidden population of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, the servants raised by the rich and powerful, and The government did not expand the search for registered refugees in time.

There is also a cost issue to be considered in the imperial court's expropriation. Some craftsmen with special skills, and some single households, these are not included in the enlistment.Craftsman households need to bear fixed lessons, and once the only Dingli of Xiahu is taken away, it means that the family has collapsed, which means that the court may lose this household forever.

Li Tong returned to the capital to be in chaos, and to re-establish order in the shortest possible time, naturally he could no longer have the concerns of the previous court.The young and strong in the city are not only precious labor force, but also the basis for the breeding of disasters. Of course, they should be controlled as much as possible.

Therefore, after the initial control of the situation in the imperial city, the first step for a member of staff to enter the workshop is to organize these strong men, intimidate and lure, and distribute as many necessary living materials as there are people gathered in each workshop. There is simply no time or energy to call for points counting from house to house.Taking each fang as a community of destiny, the number of fang residents is directly related to their fortune and destiny.

Although personnel are organized, whether there is enough material supply is also the key to determining whether this order can continue to operate.

After his subordinates regained control of the official warehouses in Duji and counted the surplus, Li Tong couldn't help feeling that it was not easy for the imperial court to maintain such a financial situation until the outbreak of military chaos before it collapsed.Although there were also reasons for being looted by the army, even if these factors were taken into account, the foundation left by the imperial court can only be described as tragic.

Before that, he also complained that the imperial court imposed blockades on the Xingtai. He was more or less ignorant and ignorant, but only after he really learned about the financial situation of the imperial court in recent years did he understand that although the Xingtai was not very lucrative, but in the imperial court It seems that he is also a rich and jealous man.

The financial distress of the imperial court has nothing to do with his fourth uncle's personal morality, and even his fourth uncle can be said to be a model emperor in terms of personal morality.After returning to the court, the court hardly built any palaces, and the expenses of the family members were not luxurious.This is not just for show, when Li Tong entered the palace to meet his fourth uncle's family at the beginning of his return to the capital, he found that the concubines' clothes were simple, even inferior to those in the old days of the martial arts competition.

Obviously, in this respect, Li Tong is far inferior to his fourth uncle. Although his life with his family is not luxurious, it has absolutely nothing to do with simplicity. He has all the luxuries that should be enjoyed, but there is no deliberate extravagance waste.After all, he has a lot of subsidy channels in his life, and he even has a living in the outside room.

That's why Li Tong didn't understand. Even if the materials exported to the west of Tongguan were no longer nationalized after he traveled west, the imperial court still owned more than half of the world. It is also a very considerable income. Before the Turkic invasion, the imperial court did not have a large loss of materials. Where did the money go?

Such a problem obviously cannot be clarified in a short period of time, and the huge material gap needs to be solved urgently.The rich and powerful people in the city naturally became the targets of the mopping up.Especially those temples that have been fattened for many years have become the focus of attention.

It was not the first time that Li Tong had attacked Samana, but even though he had tasted the sweetness before, this time he was still a little dumbfounded by the rich and wealthy of the Samana Buddhist Temple in Luoyang City.

After all, Luoyang has been the center of the world for a long time, and his grandmother has worshiped Buddhism for many years. The number of temples in Luoyang City and the abundance of accumulation are far from comparable to other places.Even in the original history, when Wu Zetian encountered financial difficulties, she couldn't help but attack the Samana who was waving the flag for her superiority.

At the same time, Li Tong has been linking the cleansing of those prisoners with the well-being of the people.Often when a family is convicted of a crime, it first transports a large amount of goods from its home, across the streets and alleys to Hanjia Cangcheng in Luobei, and then transports them out from Cangcheng, and sends them to various workshops as subsidies.

Because of this, even though the execution ground in Nanshi was full of people being killed all day long, it did not cause too much panic in the city. Killing thieves to help the poor is also an underlying logic in Luoyang City recently.Maybe one day the execution ground killed so much that even the onlookers were terrified, but how much did the price of grain drop in the market, which one is more touching?

But even so, the materials accumulated in the city are still being consumed rapidly. Although there are some supplements for woodcutters, fishing and hunting around Kinki and government market purchases, they are far from being consumed.If it continues, even if the belt tightening in Luoyang city can wait for the replenishment from the nearby Henan states, the imperial court does not have enough resources to deal with the hidden dangers in Hedong.

Lidefang Xintan is surrounded by the largest storage center in Luoyang City, owned by both the government and the people. The whereabouts of a large amount of materials are unknown, and of course Li Tong will not ignore them.

Although the backward logistics conditions in ancient times were inconvenient, it was not without benefits, that is, it provided certain convenience for the recovery of stolen goods.It is very difficult to realize the large-scale and long-distance transfer of goods, especially without the permission of the government, it is impossible to move across states and counties without hindrance.

In the past period of time, although Luoyang was in chaos, the surrounding prefectures and counties were still slightly affected and the order remained. Therefore, it was difficult to transport the lost goods from Lidefang out of the Heluo area in a very short period of time. Therefore, there is a high probability that this batch of goods will still remain around the capital.

Although this can be determined, it does not mean that recovering stolen goods is easy.Even if the water and land arteries are under the government's control, there are still large areas of wilderness between cities and villages that cannot be covered by eyes and ears.During the most chaotic period in Luoyang City, people came and went frequently, and various traces of entry and exit were enough to confuse the tracking clues. If you want to conduct a blanket search, you will inevitably need to invest a lot of manpower.

The aftermath of Luoyang City is still undecided. Li Tong can't send a large number of soldiers to the countryside, and he is worried about letting the newly organized soldiers in the city go out to search, so he can only trace clues through the personnel in the city.

As his control over Luoyang deepened, various personnel clues naturally emerged during the turmoil. Some of the lost goods were recovered one after another, but a considerable number were still missing.The little fish and shrimps who confuse the public and the public were hunted down, and the big black hands hidden behind the scenes gradually appeared, and then Li Tong discovered that his aunt was not idle either.

Although Princess Taiping stayed in Shangyang Palace, it didn't mean she didn't have the ability and opportunity to do things.Because she acted as an agent for Luoyang Feiqian, she naturally held a large personnel network in her hands.

After the mutiny of the Beiya and the disappearance of King Xiang, many courtiers rushed into the Shangyang Palace. Princess Taiping got the opportunity to communicate with the outside world, and took the opportunity to use flying money as a threat to win over a group of merchants from the two cities. During the looting of Fangcang Mansion, they became a powerful team taking advantage of the fire.

Of course, this temporarily allied force is not well-organized, nor can it be called covert, especially not acting as a whole.Although some small shrimps have been arrested one after another, the traces that can be provided are still limited.

Li Tong was also worried that if the pace of the investigation was too long, some of the participants might jump over the wall and burn their traces, so he has been holding back and secretly investigating a relatively complete list of gang members, hoping to catch them all in one go, and try their best to Safeguard stolen goods.Of course, there was also a plan to bury his aunt along with this big pit.

But now his grandma has made it clear that he doesn't want him to kill his blood relatives, and his aunt doesn't know what she will do in a panic, and he doesn't dare to continue to weave the net, so he simply uses his aunt as a breakthrough point, first The relevant personnel hunted as much as possible.

But because the situation didn't have a fermentation process, the public opinion was naturally not enough. Even without his grandma's request, he couldn't directly kill his aunt, otherwise the public impression would be too cold.

Under the intimidation, Princess Taiping's defenses were broken and she knew everything. It was a clear outline of the personnel behind it, which saved Li Tong's time to continue searching for evidence.So the Yasukuni Two Battalions, who stayed in Ouchi that night, secretly dispatched again, went straight to Fangqu, broke down the door and arrested people.

Chapter 0783 Jumping beam clown, nothing to worry about

In the first ten days of April, banners were displayed in the western suburbs of Luoyang City, and [-] armored soldiers from Kansai arrived in Duji. This undoubtedly gave another boost to Luoyang City, which had gradually restored its order.

But this is actually still a bluff. It has only been more than ten days since Li Tong officially supervised the country. Even if the order is passed between the two capitals, it will take a process from the gathering of the army to the marching. Arrived in Luoyang in a short time.

Therefore, the people who rushed to this group did not start from Chang'an, but Li Shouli who stayed in Tongguan on the way and Heizhi Changzhi from Puzhou, Hedong. .

However, as the saying goes, if there are more than [-] people, there are no boundaries. Even if it is a general who has received strict military training, it is difficult to accurately judge the specific number of an army if the army is stationed in the camp without complying with the regulations.As for the ordinary people, they just watched the excitement, there were so many people.

What's more, it is difficult for Luoyang Shiliu to understand in detail how many people and horses there are in Xingtai and the efficiency of the army's mobilization and marching.So Li Tong was not afraid of being exposed, and blatantly said big things.

As the new army entered the barracks inside and outside the city in an orderly manner, the execution ground in Nanshi once again ushered in a peak period of execution.

Although Li Tong gave up his plan to make the matter bigger, he also laid the groundwork a few days ago, reducing the share of Zhufang's salt and rice supply, and at the same time giving up the suppression of grain prices in the two cities. Within a few days, the price of Duji grain increased sharply, reaching an astonishing price of a thousand dollars per bucket of rice.

Therefore, when those criminals were escorted to the execution ground and their charges were announced, the observers in Nanshi gritted their teeth and hated them.After a massacre, many stolen goods that were originally hidden around the capital were also transported to the city one after another.For a time, the impression that the entire Luoyang city was strong and strong, with sufficient food and grass was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In this turmoil, Li Tong did not mention his aunt too much, and even deliberately erased the traces of Princess Taiping's participation in the judgment, but more than a dozen retainers of Princess Taiping's mansion were killed, and even a few small toys were killed. Beheading the head directly can be regarded as giving a strong hint.

Sometimes, this kind of silent warning is even more effective than the explicit prohibition. At least for a long time, Princess Taiping will be listed as an untouchable object by the courtiers.After all, no matter how the princess tried to die, she had the royal blood to back her up, but the dozens of house slaves who were chopped off were not even charged with basic crimes, and their deaths were unclear.

The surge in power of the imperial court this time has finally pushed the current situation to the next step, not just cleaning or rebuilding in Heluo.And the first problem that needs to be faced is Hedong.

Even though Li Tong was at the beginning of supervising the country, the imperial court made a decision on the biggest personnel problem in Hedong, that is, to dismiss Li Chengqi, the son of the prime minister, as an official, return to the capital as the heir, and go to Guanzhong with the coffin.

But in fact, no one would believe that Li Chengqi would obediently obey the imperial court's order and return to the capital. Although he had not formally entered the erotic palace, as the eldest son of the prime minister, it was only natural for him to follow the normal development of the situation and inherit the state.

But now, not only the monarch's father died tragically in the capital, but also his own future was occupied by others. Once he obeyed the imperial court's arrangement, not only would he have no hope of becoming a great position, he might not be able to control his life and death. This is something no normal person can bear.

What's more, Li Chengqi still held the [-] army in Hedong. Even if he was weak and did not dare to fight, the generals in the army and the ministers accompanying the army would probably not agree, so there must be some twists and turns in Hedong.

However, the arrangement about Li Chengqi was the Empress Dowager's will. Even if the officials felt something was wrong, it was really difficult to refute it under the circumstances.In some people's minds, they actually hope to continue to negotiate with Hedong to find an optimal solution.

In the following period of time, although the various departments of the imperial court resumed their operations one after another, they were just immersed in their work, and there was no room for a relaxed discussion of politics. Regarding how to solve the Hedong issue, the Jian Guoyuan Si could only temporarily shelve it.

With the entry of the Kansai army, especially the entry of a military general like Yan Guogong Hei Chi Changzhi, the officials are pleased with the fact that the court is getting more and more stable. Li Chengqi, the heir king, was worried.

If it is said that before this, the courtiers' understanding of Jian Guo Yuan Si was not lacking in shallowness and vagueness, but in the short ten days of working together, they each have a profound understanding of Jian Guo Yuan Si's behavior style. feel.

His sophistication of behavior, ease of rewards and punishments, especially the rapid integration of public opinion, is really amazing.In just ten days of ruling, from the court to the Fangqu, they have deeply imprinted their own imprints, and the influence of King Xiang's reign of the throne for several years has almost disappeared.

All the ministers are clearly in it, but they can't feel the gradual connection in it at all. It seems that the situation between the government and the opposition has become like this just for a moment. and.

Although the personnel situation has changed rapidly, the emotional change has not changed so quickly.

If the ministers were worried that fighting in the same room would directly affect the survival of the country, so they had to endure for the country and maintain the orthodoxy of the court, then now they are simply more worried about the successor king Li Chengqi.

In just over a dozen days, the imperial court has undergone a radical change, and has already acquired the power to fight against the River, while the original Guanzhong chassis of Jian Guo Yuansi has not yet been fully activated, which already gives people an unshakable feeling .

If Li Chengqi, the successor king, refuses the imperial court's order and arrangement for the purpose of negotiation and negotiation, he hopes to win a more favorable opportunity.The ministers were worried that the king of succession might have already been settled by the court before he had figured out what to fight for.

Therefore, when Hei Chi Changzhi led the army into the capital, it was rare for the chief officials of the courts to stop their busy desks and submit their respective memorials to the Political Affairs Hall. I hope that the court will be tolerant and tolerant when it comes to solving the Hedong issue. , try not to pay swordsmen.

This kind of group voice expression, in addition to being partly due to the return of the old master Xiangwang, also has a factor of overall consideration.

Although the order of the imperial court has been restored, the whole world has not yet settled down. Hedong is only one of the most prominent problems. damage, at least it will have a great negative impact on the re-entry of other regions.

After the memorials of the various divisions were handed over to the Political Affairs Hall, Li Tong read them through, and then said with a smile: "The lover's heart has been decided, and it's time to make a bigger plan next."

The ministers' memorials were either sincere or argued with reason, but no matter what style of writing or attitude, the mentality behind it was that the ministers already felt that the court now had enough power to be able to fight in the east of the river. There are more relaxed options on the matter.

This time, Li Yuanyuan, Yang Zaisi and other members followed the army into the capital. Since they entered the court and took up their duties, they naturally had the right to select and read these memorials.

They naturally had a better understanding of the power under the Jian Guo Yuan Si's command. After reading a few memorials, Yang Zaisi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Before Your Highness entered the capital, the situation in the court collapsed like sand. Integrate into one body. After receiving the order, the ministers have been traveling day and night, and they are eager for this help, but they are still a step too late!"

After all, it was comfortable for the old subordinates to flatter. Li Tong laughed when he heard the words, and then said sternly: "Mr. Xianggong and others are all great political talents. There is no need to take danger for merit. The follow-up prosperity still needs to be continued. How to solve the matter, the court sentiment has already shown that it is not easy to stop fighting and settle disputes!"

Speaking of this, he pointed to Li Yuanyuan and said: "Before that, the position was simple and there were many shortages. The ministers were all provincial and had no chairs, so that there was a lack of coordination between the provincial temples. Li Xianggong was in this unified position. Next It takes a lot of work.”

Li Elementu nodded after hearing the words, didn't say much, and actually didn't have time. After entering the hall, there were already several large boxes of ministers waiting for him to take over.

Hei Chi Chang Zhi, who was also present, got up and crossed his hands and said, "Since your highness has worked hard, he has a plan in his chest, and the ministers and others can only follow the plan. I dare not vote on the matter, but tell the feelings of the soldiers. Every soldier in the battalion knows that your highness is the heir of the Yuan Dynasty. And in charge of the state machine, everyone is excited and eager to drive! But there is an order, and you will never fear war!"

Hearing this, Li Tong nodded in satisfaction. Traveling eastward to win the championship was originally one of his means of boosting morale.Only when the power is in hand, can we have the confidence to pull out hundreds of thousands of Jiawu from Guanzhong to shock the world.Although there is still time to bluff, but as soon as May comes, he will truly be afraid of no one!

"Duke Yan doesn't need to stay in Luoyang. After a few days, he will lead [-] Jia across the river and go straight to Huaizhou to station in Heyang!"

Although the situation in the DPRK is getting better and better, the external situation is taking a turn for the worse. Previously, limited by the constraints of communication conditions, the external changes have not been reported back immediately, but now more than ten days have passed, and the first wave of feedback from other states Also entered the capital.

Speaking of this issue, Li Tong's expression also became serious: "The Beiya traitor Sha Zha loyally crossed Hebei, entered Huaizhou to attack and kill Zhang Jianzhi, the governor of Huaizhou, and took the people of Huaizhou to continue northward. Sun Quan, the governor of Xiangzhou, also Rebelling against the border of the state, I want to cross the Taihang River to join the east. The Western Army will not be able to reach the capital until May. Before that, I want you, Lord Yan, to guard Heyang strictly, and not allow a single soldier to cross Xingdong and enter!"

"The minister is hereby ordered to defend Heyang to the death!"

When Hei Chi Changzhi heard that the situation in Hebei was already so serious, he immediately said solemnly, and then hesitated a little: "The east side..."

"The matter of Hedong is difficult to resolve normally, and the imperial court will resolve it immediately."

When Li Tong talked about this, he said with a smile full of confidence: "The big bandits from the Western Borderlands even hate Haidong, so it's nothing to worry about just a few clowns in the middle of the country!"

Chapter 0784 tells the heavenly soldiers to disarm and return to the country

After the Xijing personnel arrived in Luoyang, they immediately brought great improvement to the operation of the court.Li Yuanyuan, Yang Zaisi, etc. had served as prime ministers in the imperial court in the early years, and presided over the administrative affairs of Taiwan for several years. With them leading the political affairs hall, they could quickly incorporate the former officials and subordinates of Taiwan into the imperial court.

With the participation of the old officials from Xijing, Li Tong can focus on the big and let go of the small in terms of government affairs. Except for the formulation of some policy frameworks, he doesn't need to ask about every detail, and has more energy to focus on the military.

Du Ji is by no means the only mess left by his fourth uncle. There are also many headaches in the future, and each one is more difficult to solve.

Last spring, the court selected a number of courtiers to serve in prefectures and counties, and the main dispatched area was Hebei.In addition to the basic powers of the local governors, this group of governors who have been released to the outside world has their respective powers increased to varying degrees. They organize training in the state and collect money and food.Although the original purpose was to control Hebei people more conveniently to conquer the Turks, it actually made it more difficult for the current imperial court to regain control of Hebei.

Since the founding of the Tang family, it has always been a policy of emphasizing the internal rather than the external. In addition to the arrangement of the personnel structure, it is also extremely cautious in granting the power of the external Fang Bo, and will frequently send the censor and other inspectors to appease the world.

During the Chuigong period, Li Tang's clan rebelled. Although it took a long time to plan, when it was actually launched, there were only a few thousand miscellaneous soldiers, and the court gathered 10,000+ troops in a very short period of time to quickly put down the rebellion.This shows that there is a huge disparity between the local government and the central government in recruiting and mobilizing forces.

But now, as many as a dozen prefectures in Hebei have the right to recruit money, food and horses on their own, and Dou Xiaochen, who was supposed to control this power on behalf of the imperial court, died under the chaos of the Khitan people, making the whole of Hebei in a state of imminent danger. out of control state.
