Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1133
Chapter 1133 The twelfth lunar month welcomes people back
Under the current system, the soil for the existence of aristocratic families that have existed for thousands of years no longer exists, but there are still generals like Chen Guogong’s mansion.
If nothing else, Mu Ying under Li Xin’s command will definitely develop into the generals of the new dynasty, and Hou Jingde and He Xiong will also become the upstarts of the new dynasty. In this case, the children of these generals will enter the imperial court. Among the various armies, it is also inevitable.
Therefore, Li Xin did not reject Hou Jingde’s request. The middle officer of Yulinwei will be his younger sister-in-law Zhao Fang, and the children of the Hou family will enter, at most, the school captain and the like will be gilded, and they will work for a year. After half a year, he will jump out of Yulinweili and enter other yamen to work.
All rule has its own power base. Power in the feudal era is generally derived from violence at the beginning. After the power of violence is initially stabilized, a series of theoretical arguments will be derived to consolidate the power base, such as monarchical power. God-given, such as “the Son of Heaven”, after that is the so-called bloodline.
Of course, the original unbreakable word of blood has been beaten to pieces by the sentence of the prince and general Xiangning.
Li Xin’s current ruling foundation is in the initial stage, that is, the stage of violence. He needs a solid military power to maintain his power, and it is impossible for him to control all the soldiers by himself, so he needs people to help him. .
Mu Ying, Li Shuo, Hou Jingde, He Xiong and Ye Mao, who is still in the northern border, will become the generals of the new dynasty. Only by giving these people status and power, will Li Xin’s own power be unbreakable.
Of course, at the current stage, all other powers can be delegated, but the power of Shenjiying is not enough. Li Xin must hold all things of Shenjiying tightly in his own hands.
After a brief meal with Hou Jingde, Li Xin got up and left, Hou Jingde got up and took Li Xin downstairs, and then bowed to Li Xin: “Great Governor, the last general has been living in the forbidden army camp in the capital these days. , After these days, most of the brothers in the Imperial Army have already recognized the situation, and no one will fight against the Grand Governor. Of course, if the Grand Governor has time, you can find a place to set up a table and feast, and invite the brothers in the Imperial Army to eat. One meal, so that the Imperial Army understands the sincerity of the Grand Governor, and can be used by the Grand Governor.”
He bowed his head slightly.
“The Grand Governor used to be a general in the Imperial Army for seven years. Now many of the Generals in the Imperial Army are still the former subordinates of the Grand Governor, and they are all waiting for the Grand Governor to express his stance.”
Li Xin smiled dumbly: “I have nothing to say, I have already said that before, they fought each other, but each had their own masters. After the Southwest Army entered Beijing, everything was turned over. What was the status of the banned army in the imperial court before, it will be changed in the future. What status would it be?”
“That’s it. After three days, I will still be in this restaurant. I will invite the brothers of the Imperial Army to have a meal. As for who should come, it is up to you, Brother Hou.”
Hou Jingde breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile appeared on his face: “So, on behalf of the soldiers of the Forbidden Army, I would like to thank the Governor.”
Li Xin agrees to invite the soldiers of the forbidden army, or the generals of the forbidden army to eat, which means that he is willing to accept the forbidden army into his own forces, not only the southwest army. He, Hou Jingde, and generals of the imperial family like He Xiong would be in a much better situation.
…………
The time soon reached the last month of the fifth year of Yuanzhao, which means that more than two months have passed since the Southwest Army entered Beijing.
In the past two months, Li Xin has initially transformed the pattern of the imperial court into shape. The Southwest Army has been reorganized into the Four Guard Battalions, which are the left and right Longwu, the left and right Shenwu, the left and right generals of Longwu and the left and right generals of Shenwu, and the Duke of Qianguo. Mu Ying served as the general of Longwuwei, commanding the entire Longwuwei, while Li Shuo, Marquis of Pengyuan, served as the general of Shenwuwei, commanding the entire Shenwuwei.
Together, there are about 120,000 people. This number needs to be carefully considered. According to Li Xin, the Fourth Guards should gradually expand to a scale of about 200,000 people.
As for the forbidden army stationed outside the city, the name has not been changed for the time being, but Li Xin invited their generals to a meal, and promised them what they were like in the past and what they will be in the future. Of course, as the scale of the Fourth Guards gradually took shape, The status of the current banned army in the capital will gradually be marginalized in the future. Although it is still a banned army, it cannot be regarded as a core banned army.
In addition, the three imperial guards in the capital are almost formed. Among them, the inner guard in charge of Chen Shiliu’s dark department has officially taken over the guard duties of the imperial city, and the other Qianniu guards and Yulin guards are almost all officers at all levels. The arrangement is complete, as long as the training keeps up, the old view of the former three guards will soon be restored.
It is worth mentioning that, apart from Li Xin, the inner guard of the Kaishu Imperial City, who did not allow anyone to interfere, Qianniuwei and Yulinwei had arranged for a lot of gatekeepers to enter, including Hou Jingde’s two sons. As well as He Song’s son who stayed in the capital, and Mu Ying also sent two Mu family members to serve in Qianniu Guard.
In addition to these military reforms, after two months, Zhao Jia also slowly took over the Shangshutai. Although the title is still in charge of Zuoxiang Fangfangwei, in fact, almost all the decrees of the Shangshutai came from Zhao Jiazhi. hand.
Because the new emperor is only twelve years old this year, he is still incapable of pro-government, and the Shangshutai has the final say in all matters in the DPRK. Every chancellor of Zhao would transcribe a copy and send it to the Marquis of Jing’an. After Li Xin made a decision, the Shang Shutai would make a decision.
In other words, the military and political power in the capital was not entirely in Li Xin’s hands at this time, at least 80%, all fell into the Jing’an Houfu.
Many officials even forgot the existence of the Son of Heaven in the imperial city, and slowly began to forget His Royal Highness King Huai in Yonglefang.
The day of the twelfth lunar month was cold and windy.
On the morning of the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, when the officials in the court were still considering what to use to change the first year title next year, the Grand Governor Li Xin, who had already mastered the vast majority of the authority, was already waiting at the Xicheng Gate of the capital. place.
When he first arrived at the Xicheng Gate, he found that he was not alone waiting. The right servant of Shangshutai, Zhao Jia, the general of Longwuwei, Mu Ying, and the general of Shenwuwei, Li Shuo, all arrived at the Xichengmen early, waiting for a certain the arrival of some people.
The Big Three of the Southwest are here in a rare fashion.
In addition to these three people, their respective sons are also beside them, standing respectfully behind them.
After seeing the arrival of Li Xin’s carriage, Zhao Jia’s son Zhao Yi stepped forward and called “foster father”, Li Shuo’s son stepped forward and called uncle, as for Mu Ying’s youngest son, also stepped forward and called uncle.
Li Xin jumped out of the carriage and waved to the juniors, indicating that you were welcome. Then he glanced at the three of them, shook his head and smiled bitterly, “You guys came early on such a cold day.”
Zhao Jia, the only scholar in the group, dressed in a moon-white fur, smiled at Li Xin and said, “When the sun was still dark, General Mu came to my house and called me up, saying yes He asked me to come here to greet people, where am I his opponent, and he was called out abruptly.”
Li Shuo looked calm, bowed his head to Li Xin and said, “The eldest princess is back in Beijing today, and the younger brother should naturally come to meet her.”
Mu Ying grinned: “I haven’t seen my eldest niece for a long time, of course I should come and greet you.”
Today is the day when Li Xin’s family returned to Beijing, and the three of them naturally received the news.
Governor Li shook his head helplessly: “It’s fine for you to come, why bother bringing the children to the wind to catch the cold?”
The three of them smiled and said nothing.
As the few people spoke, on the official road outside the city, five or six carriages, under the **** of more than a thousand people, slowly walked towards the capital.
Mu Ying and others looked at these carriages with eager eyes.
The three of them just mentioned Li Xin’s eldest daughter, Ahan, and the eldest princess in Li Xin’s family, but in fact, in their eyes, today’s protagonists are not these two people, but…
Li Ping, the only son of Li Xin.
