Ben Hou is ill

Chapter 74 Yulin

Yan Zhaoge returned to the mansion, asked the porter to lead the horse down, and entered the front yard through the corner gate.

It was very late when she came out of the palace, and she couldn't walk fast even if she led the horse. At this time, the lights in the mansion had already been turned off, and only some lanterns were lit under the eaves of the verandah.

She slept deeply last night, but her head was not very comfortable because of the medicine. After waking up, she realized that she was drunk too quickly, which was abnormal, and she understood what the eldest princess had done. Her head was heavy, but her heart was ecstatic.

Ji Xia greeted him, Yan Zhaoge took off the cloak he was wearing and handed it to her, and mentioned that he would be leaving Beijing the day after tomorrow at the latest, and asked Ji Xia to inform Ji Junji to pack his things.Ji Xia knew it well, and nodded in response.

Yan Zhaoge originally wanted to go directly to his room to sleep, but when he realized that the light in the study room in the front yard was still on, he turned a corner when he went out.

The Minister of War has been vacant for a long time. One reason is that no suitable candidate can be found. The generals who have enough qualifications either retire at home with the title of Taiwei, or return with missing arms and legs on the battlefield. The court is also embarrassed. Let someone serve as Minister of the Ministry of War; Second, there are not many things in the Ministry of War. There is a clear division of labor in the six ministries. The Ministry of Officials is in charge of imperial examinations and official promotion assessments. The Ministry of War is in charge of military registration, weapons, food, and martial arts, the Ministry of Punishment is in charge of laws, criminal laws, and slaves, and the Ministry of Industry is in charge of civil engineering, water conservancy, and craftsmen.

On the surface, the power of the military department is similar to that of the other five departments. In fact, it is not the case. There are only 36 people in each subject of martial arts. Most of the time, this number will not be filled. The promotion of military officers is directly managed by the emperor, which is far from the official department. the height of.What's more, there are generals' mansions in several directions. Except for the east, there are Zhennan General's Mansion in the south, Zhenbei General's Mansion in the north, and Zhengxi General's Mansion in the west. Withholding from the tax revenue, if the Ministry of War does not take the hands, the Ministry of War can only provide weapons.In the summer, the battle between Beidi and the Xiongnu didn't bother the Ministry of War at all.

Yan Lan didn't think there was any problem with this system when he was General Zhenbei, but when he started sorting out the documents of the Ministry of War, he realized that the problem was serious.

The food and wages are no more than the imperial court?

A large amount of food and salaries can be transferred from granaries in various places with just a document. The annual food and salaries required by the three armies are not a small amount, and the supply of one granary is definitely not enough. According to the rules, the granaries in various places must be kept at least full Half of the grain is for future troubles, which means that at least two or three granaries need to be transferred from each place to be enough.

If the notification of the news is not timely enough, and a certain army takes the official seal to go to several granaries to fetch grain at the same time, and the grain cao do not know each other, then it is very likely that not only this amount of grain will be taken away, but if the extra grain falls In the hands of people with bad intentions, the consequences will be disastrous.

Even if there are no unruly ideas in various places at present, what will the court do if they can be self-sufficient in food and wages, can they still have a sense of awe for the emperor of Chang'an?

Yan Lan is well aware of this.

He is not very loyal to Da Jin, it's just that Yan Guo is gone, and he has no better place to go.If he dared to go to Xianbei, the Huns, all the ancestors of the Yan family would climb out of the soil to scold him, and they could only defect to Dajin. Road, what can I do?Of course, he would not do it if he was asked to betray the Great Jin Emperor. The Yan family's century-old brand of loyalty cannot be destroyed in his hands, and his wife and children must rely on the present to survive, not to mention that the only daughter married the eldest princess.

Thinking of Yan Zhaoge, Yan Lan smiled on her wrinkled face.

But no matter what, at least Yan Lan hadn't tampered with the food and salary in the past, and he hadn't even eaten the empty salary, otherwise Yan Zhaoge wouldn't have lamented that he didn't have much money left after seeing the storehouse in the mansion.General Zhennan only invited away the clans of the Shu royal lineage, and it was too late for him to act fast.Then only the General Zhengxi's Mansion, which was already full of problems, was left.

Zhengxi General Mansion, Marquis of Xiliang.

Foreign races have always been unfamiliar wolves. Just look at this dynasty, there are northwest Rong people who betrayed the emperor Shizu, and the barbarians from Shu also bit the emperor Daizong. Going forward, the former dynasty was more than [-] years old, and then the country was weak. When the vassals became bigger, they had to become brothers with the Xiongnu, married for several generations, and even gave Liu Han the surname of the country. When the world was in chaos, the first soldiers to point directly at the capital of the previous dynasty were the Huns.

But the Marquis of Xiliang is already in trouble, and it will not be a matter of overnight to solve this problem.I have to find a time to discuss with Yongyue, to find out what the princess is saying.

Just as Yan Lan was thinking, she heard someone knock on the door.

"Father."

It was Yan Zhaoge's voice.

Yan Lan got up and opened the door for Yan Zhaoge, saw her come in and closed the door, said with a smile, "I thought you were staying in the palace today."

"My son has received an errand for disaster relief from the eldest princess, and he has to leave tomorrow morning, and the next morning at the latest."

A bit of surprise appeared on Yan Lan's face.

Yan Zhaoge said again: "Cousin of the Zhao family will go with me, if anything happens, we can suppress the soldiers of Hedong County."

"You are the commander of Jinyiwei, so it's not easy to intervene in the place. It's very thoughtful to do so." Yan Lan nodded and said, "Rang Yun is indeed a good candidate."

Zhao Guohou's son Ming Yun said that when he was young, Meng Yin became a Lang Guan and worked hard in the Eighth School of the Beijing Camp for some years. Now he has grandsons, and he only holds the official position of Zhong Lang and stays at home. Although he has no chance to go to the battlefield, But knowledge is there.Zhao Guohou's son is very calm, he will not confront Yan Zhaoge just because of a disagreement, and the other party will not let Yan Zhaoge step down because of the relationship between the two.

This person is just right.

Yan Lan pondered for a while again, and said: "Although the eldest princess has sent you the Habayashi guards, I still don't feel at ease, except that the personal soldiers of Ji Jun and Ji Zheng's mansion will pick up twenty legs and feet to follow you to Hedong conveniently. Just in case, someone reliable will come back with a message."

Yan Zhaoge naturally responded.

Yan Lan turned around and talked about his thoughts just now and some hidden worries about food and wages, and said: "This time, you just take this opportunity to explore the reality of the root warehouse and wet warehouse. If you have no worries, wait until this time is over. Afterwards, we will discuss and change this policy of food and payment. If you have any problems, don’t say anything. There are countless powerful landlords in the river east, and there are many princely houses sealed by the ancestors of the ancestors. Don’t act rashly. I will go to find the eldest princess after the court tomorrow morning. , Mention the matter of the pay."

Yan Zhaoge also responded one by one.

She has never been to Hedong in her two lives, and she is not very clear about the situation in Hedong. What is written on the paper is false after all, and it will be seen at a later time.As for what her father said not to act rashly, she didn't intend to deal with it casually, but she would never be soft when it was time to kill. Now that the Jin army is strong and strong, even if there are some villains in the dark, it is not a worry.Of the eight schools in the Beijing Camp, only three were drawn to fight in the Northland, and the remaining five were very jealous, just waiting for a big battle to make themselves promoted.

As for the possible rebound in the official circles of Hedong, it is better to control the expensive with the expensive.

In the early morning of the next day, the eldest princess announced a group of courtiers going to Hedong.

The eldest princess specially emphasized the identity of the eldest princess consort, indicating that the courtier Yan Zhaoge went to the disaster relief this time as a foreign relative.

Courtiers flirted with each other, passing news.

After the morning court, Yan Zhaoge first went to find General Yubayashi, and expressed his thoughts.

Habayashi Zhonglang was taken aback, and said: "You want to pick the sons of noble families to go?"

No wonder he was surprised, but all the children of aristocratic families are very arrogant, and those who can voluntarily enter the Habayashi Guard also want to do something great. often happens.On weekdays, sometimes he can't control this group of people with extraordinary backgrounds, and he would rather take those who came from orphan camps or those whose father and brother died in battle under the shadow of the battlefield, who doesn't like obedient and capable people?

Is it because Yan Hou himself has a good temper on weekdays, so he thinks other honorable children are easy to talk to?

Habayashi Zhonglang said euphemistically: "This group is really domineering, Yanhou is not as good as..."

Yan Zhaoge said with a smile: "What I want is that they are domineering and domineering. If they are all timid and afraid of getting into trouble, I don't want them."

Habayashi Zhonglang will be dumbfounded.But the eldest princess had already instructed that the accompanying guards were to be chosen by Hou Yan himself, and he could not disobey the eldest princess' order, so he could only bite the bullet and agree.As for what will happen next, Yan Hou can ask for good luck.

The number of Habayashi guards is no more than 3000 at most, excluding the orphans of Habayashi who are still unable to fight, there are a thousand knights for Yan Zhaoge to choose from.

Thousands of Habayashi knights have just finished their morning exercises. Their clothes look like they have rolled in muddy water. They are so hungry that their eyes are glowing green. Urged to stand in the open space.Everyone held their breath and wanted to see who was coming.

Even if the eldest princess came in person, they couldn't let them not eat.

Yan Zhaoge stood on the high platform, holding a simple loudspeaker device in his hand, first smiled at the Habayashi knights, and then said: "Everyone! I am the eldest grandson of the former King Yan, former General Zhenbei, Today, the eldest son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, the late emperor specially named Yanhou, and the commander of Jinyiwei in the servant, Yan Zhaoge!"

Many knights were shocked.For the disciples of Jiangmen, the Yan family in the past and the Yan family in Chang'an today are a mountain that cannot be overcome.From Emperor Mu Zong to the present, for more than a hundred years, close to the time of two Jiazi, he was ordered to guard the northern land and defend against the enemy outside the pass, without any loss. After the collapse of the Yan Kingdom, there were only three grandparents and grandchildren left. out of the battlefield.

Even if they were hungry, even if they were addressing the Yan family, they would still listen to what this person had to say.

"First, Princess Meng Chang valued me so much that she appointed me as an envoy for disaster relief in Hedong, and brought [-] feathered horses to the river for disaster relief!"

"Secondly, the wealthy families of the Hedong family are swaying and intertwined. Although there is a disaster, there is no room for loss in Hedong!"

"Third, you Yulin, you haven't been on the battlefield for 20 years! If the eighth school of the Beijing Camp is a waste, your Yulin is even a waste of waste!"

The Habayashi Knight's face was so tight that even Habayashi Nakaro General felt ashamed.

Because what Yan Zhaoge said was the truth.

Habayashi Guard and No. 20 Jingying School hadn't been on the battlefield for [-] years, and they neglected their drills. The Ju Zhu Army guarding Yanmen Pass even laughed at the former two as trash.But now one of the trash, the Eighth School of the Beijing Camp, has entered the battlefield in the Northland, and they use the victory in the Northland to justify their name.

Habayashi Wei did not have this opportunity.

The author has something to say: Happy Lantern Festival, I just found out that the name of Yanhou’s uncle is the same as her cousin... You don’t want to remind me (resentment)

I checked the history books and found that the scholars in the Han Dynasty were really different from the later ones. If Confucianism hadn't been crooked later, alas.

There is one more chapter before six o'clock.
