Although the emperor Li Shengguo was willing to continue to maintain the peace, Chu Xiuyu learned from Xizuo that the crown princess has now fallen out of favor and is not as good as a palace maid in the palace, the prince listened to the rumors and blamed her for this qiē disobedience, humiliated her day by day, and even pampered her personal palace maid in front of her, and let her personal palace maid slap her, and the newly pregnant princess had no choice but to have a miscarriage in fright and anger.

But even so, the prince still didn't let her go, and the various means of trampling on her were simply outrageous.

Chu Xiuyu was also furious after hearing this, and he couldn't wait to immediately lead his troops over to get rid of the prince of the nest, but what could he do if he was angry, wouldn't the real army fight over just to let those instigators succeed?

Chu Xiuyu shook his head, no, not now, Shenghe is not ready?

Maybe it's time to let go and prepare, and you can only end up destroying yourself.

A few days later, in the imperial study, Jiang Youchun, Yang Mingyuan, Jiang Wenhan, Sun Aoting, and Cheng Hu were summoned by the emperor together.

Listening to Chu Xiuyu's words, these five people also looked solemn, originally Li Shengguo's imperial heir was the most stable, just because the crown prince was the eldest son of the main palace and the eldest son of the emperor, but now he was assassinated because he came to Shenghe to participate in an auction, and after returning to China, he fell into the battle for the heir, and because of this, everyone speculated that the biggest winner, the third prince, was most likely to be the driving force behind the whole incident.

"I summoned you to the palace this time, just to sue you, I don't think this matter was done by the three princes alone, I always think that there is a mysterious organization trying to disturb the countries, and I still don't know which country this organization is. Their aim seems to be to stir up strife among countries, and the current situation of Li Shengguo is a living example. ”

As soon as Chu Xiuyu spoke, everyone felt incredible.

"Maybe the war between Shenghe and Jin'an five years ago also has their credit."

"Five years ago?" Five years ago they were just teenagers. The specific reason for the stop with Jin'an has not been investigated, and now the historian has been rehabilitated, and the emperor said that it was caused by the instigation of a mysterious organization, which is really unbelievable.

Chu Xiuyu looked at the faces of several people, Yang Mingyuan looked thoughtful, and Jiang Youchun looked bitter and angry. Jiang Wenhan was much calmer, while Sun Aoting and Cheng Hu were each immersed in shock and looked at themselves stupidly.

"Of the five of you. Except for Cheng Hu, all of them have fiefdoms, and I order you to go back and recruit troops and train soldiers with all your might. Prepare for battle. Chu Xiuyu made up his mind. After finishing speaking, he got up and went to the bookcase to personally remove a box, took something out of the box, and held it in his hand.

Everyone looked at each other and looked at the emperor one after another.

The military department is responsible for recruiting troops and horses, although the four major families with fiefs can be regarded as one of the princes, but the army is the army, and the government is the government. They were only responsible for governance, but they were not allowed to recruit soldiers privately.

For five hundred years. There has never been a man who is responsible for both governing the city and recruiting troops. This has always been a taboo in imperial power. What the emperor hates the most is the lack of concentration of imperial power, they have known about it since they were children, and they are cautious and cautious in doing things, for fear of doing things that make the emperor feel that he threatens the imperial power.

Moreover, in the family, even the guards have a quota, and if the quota is exceeded, they will be denounced to the imperial front by someone with a heart, or impeached by the imperial history.

Those who have military power will not let them be in the same city, such as Jiang Youchun, when he has military power, he left Rongcheng, first in the capital, and then went to Yuancheng, and in Yuancheng, he was in charge of military power, and the power was handed over to Cheng Zhen.

The integration of the military and the government is feared to lead to chaos.

But the emperor specially recruited them today and asked them to be responsible for recruiting troops and horses, which is too abnormal! Although they never thought of betraying Shenghe, but after each of them had a fief, would the others have a heart of betrayal?

Jiang Youchun reacted first. immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this matter must not be done." ”

"I can trust you, and I have made up my mind."

"Your Majesty, how can you wait for your ministers?" Jiang Wenhan knelt down and bowed his head. Seeing this, the other three also quickly knelt down.

"You all have risen, I believe that you all want to have a peaceful Holy Peace, besides, I don't believe that you will betray me together, I am confident that I am a Ming King, not a faint King, and there is nothing to do for you to hold high the banner of righteousness."

"The ministers are terrified." When they saw this, they had to get up.

"The Marquis of Anding returned to the fiefdom of Rongcheng, and Cheng Hu was handed over to Cheng Hu to be responsible, and Cheng Hu was not only responsible for the frontier, but also recruited troops. I made an exception to canonize Cheng Hu as the Marquis of Yuancheng. ”

"Thanksgiving!" Cheng Hu was a little stunned when he heard it, Sun Aoting hurriedly touched his arm beside him, he reacted, and hurriedly knelt down to thank him. Everyone was a little frightened, from a second-grade official to a sudden marquis, this span is really not ordinary.

Chu Xiuyu motioned for Cheng Hu to get up, and continued.

"Lord Sun will go back to the Fancheng fiefdom this time, and I canonize Sun Aoting as the Marquis of Yong'an. Mrs. Sun is the Duke of He Guo. The prosperous city will be handed over to you. ”

"Thanksgiving!" Sun Aoting was canonized, and everyone seemed to be able to accept it, after all, the relationship between the concubines and concubines was there.

"The Marquis of Pingyuan and the Marquis of Zhongyong also returned to their fiefdoms, I have five tiger talismans here, one for each of the five of you, I hope you can live up to my trust." Chu Xiuyu said as he swept over everyone with his sharp eyes.

"The ministers will certainly live up to their trust." Everyone holds the tiger talisman in their hands, and a sense of responsibility arises spontaneously!

"These are the iron scrolls of the Danshu that I have prepared for you. After signing these Danshu iron scrolls, your heirs will inherit your titles in the future, and neither I nor the future monarch will be able to deprive you of your rights. ”

The five people looked at each other, is this the emperor trying to split the imperial power? In this relatively peaceful time, the emperor actually made such a choice, it is really incomprehensible, they picked up the cinnabar pen, one by one on the iron coupons belonging to their own fiefdom signed their names, after the emperor stamped the treasure seal, ordered Dexi to take it to be fired and sent to the fiefs to be handed over to several marquis for safekeeping.

"Go down first. When you return to the fiefdom, you must immediately start recruiting and training. ”

"Wait for the order!" A neat and uniform response.

"Cheng Hu, you stay."

Everyone got up and left, but Cheng Hu still stayed.

Outside the imperial study, the four marquis said goodbye to each other, and Sun Aoting stayed behind to wait for Cheng Hu to set off together, and Cheng Hu went to Yuancheng just in time to take himself to Fancheng by the way.

In the imperial study, Chu Xiuyu continued to talk with Cheng Hu.

"Let Cheng Dong take over your position as the secretary of the military department, this time I made an exception to make you a marquis, in fact, because your sister Chen Jia is doing things for me, and you also need to keep it secret for her, but she is a woman, and it is inconvenient for me to give her too many rewards, so she begged me to give you the reward, I hope you will do a good job after you go to Yuancheng, live up to my trust, and don't let Chen Jia's credit be in vain." Chu Xiuyu knew that Cheng Hu was full of doubts, and he told the truth, hoping that he could do things for himself more attentively.

"Wechen is afraid, and Wechen will live up to the trust." Cheng Hu was still a little stunned that he was suddenly made a marquis, his mind was blank when he first heard it, and when he heard the emperor say this, he knew that he had borrowed his own Chen Jia's light.

It turned out that Chen Jia was doing things for the emperor, he thought that Chen Jia was really sick, a few days ago, his parents went to visit Chen Jia in the county lord's mansion but were told that Chen Jia was dyed and could not see guests, Cheng Dazhuang and Chen were worried, but they were stopped outside the castle by Begonia and Peony, and they could not be seen.

It seems that the emperor gave her some secret mission, otherwise she would not have kept it from her family.

It's just that time is pressing, he can't explain anything to his family, and the emperor's order is difficult, the emperor himself wants to keep Chen Jia secret, Cheng Hu didn't have time to say goodbye to Chen Jia, so he rushed to their respective fiefdoms with Sun Aoting.

……

"Even Cheng Hu has been made a marquis, Lord Xian, you say, do I still have a foothold in this Shenghe?" Wu Taibao and King Xian gathered together in the early dynasty, and Wu Taibao was indignant.

"Not only you, but this prince also has no place to stand. The king's beloved daughter was matched with the crown prince of Li Shengguo, but now in the situation of Li Shengguo, she is clearly married to a waste prince. How can this king not be heartbroken. King Xian squinted his eyes and said bitterly.

If he knew that his daughter was in such a miserable situation in the prince's mansion, he would probably have to go to Chu Xiuyu to fight hard.

"The poor county lord has a good life, and he gave a princess a false name and went to follow the prince of another country, not only did the emperor not give you an explanation, but he was busy giving these stinky boys a fiefdom." Wu Taibao was even more indignant, as if it was his daughter who went.

"But don't you think the emperor has ulterior motives for doing this?" King Xian calmed down, and always felt that there was something in this that he hadn't expected, and he began to think carefully.

"What's the point? Seeing that the real power of the bright and bright is gone. Even the talismans were handed over to them. The old man really doesn't see any other intentions! Wu Taibao looked distressed, as if it was his money that was given out.

"No, if you say that the Sun family is almost the same, but the Cheng family always feels that something is wrong, if it is Cheng Dong who is sealed, it is said that it is for the sake of the face of the five princesses of Li Shengguo, but what is Cheng Hujin based on?" King Xian couldn't figure out what Cheng Hu was capable of being a marquis.

Both of them fell into deep thought, and after a while, Wu Taibao suddenly came to his senses: "It's because of Renai County Lord Chen Jia!" It had to be her! I always feel that this girl has been a demon since she was a child, she can be literate and martial arts at such a young age, and now she is as moving as a flower, will the emperor take a fancy to that girl? ”

"The emperor let go of Duan Guifei, who gave birth to four princes, but hung the throne empty, and did not set up a prince, I thought it was because of Zhongyong Marquis and Rui Guifei, or the Sun family was really not favored, but now it seems that the position of the queen is not like waiting for the two families to fight, but it seems to be specially reserved for that girl." King Xian slapped his thigh and finally came to his senses.

"It's better that you and I will join forces with the ministers tomorrow to discuss the establishment of the prince after the seal. It's also good to test a thing or two. Wu Taibao's eyes lit up, and a flash of inspiration appeared.

"That's it. If the emperor really takes a fancy to that girl, this king will definitely find a way to stop it. As he spoke, King Xian immediately began to act, and he went straight to his study and drafted a long excerpt about the posthumous and the early establishment of the prince, explaining the importance of the posterior position and the early establishment of the prince to a country.
