Chapter Sixty-Eight: Defeated

If it is an ordinary opening of the government and the construction of the government, although it will also attract discussion, it will definitely not have such a big response as Jin Yuwei.

In Yue Xiang's courtyard, the four eunuchs gathered, and in the flower hall ventilated on all sides, the cool breeze was very comfortable, and there was a small red clay stove burning in the courtyard.

Chen Shou scooped a few scoops of water and added firewood one by one.

Cao Guangliang sat on the chair and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has promised two hundred places for Jin Yuwei, that is, two hundred Golden Feather Soldiers, and I would like to thank our Princess Huaishan for this." ”

"This group of men and horses is deployed in the summer palace, and when necessary, it is of great use."

Wei Ning rubbed his hands and laughed: "Happy, since Yao Baobao gained power, he has been pressing us, and finally it is our turn to raise our eyebrows and exhale once." ”

These bigwigs have all seen strong winds and waves, and they didn't take Jin Yuwei, who was preparing for the construction of two hundred people, Chen Shou didn't have their mentality, and he was still worried about Jin Yuwei's preparations.

Bianliang's forces are balanced, and after being the capital for so many years, the cake has long been carved up.

After Jin Yuwei was established, he couldn't always protect himself for alchemy, he always had to get some power.

This is like snatching food from the mouth of a tiger, and you must find some soft persimmons from among the vested interests in the capital and pinch them.

And if it's too clear soup and little water, it's useless to take it, it's the same as breaking through the level, the higher the level of the person who fights, the greater the gain.

"Third father, what do you say is the right deal for our Jin Yuwei to rob, and we can gain a foothold in this Bianliang."

Cao Guangliang has been up and down in the sea for so many years, and he has long seen it very clearly, and said in a deep voice: "If you can grasp the inspection and arrest, and spy on intelligence, you will be holding the official's life." Hmph, since ancient times, there have been a few officials who are clean, who is not afraid of checking? ”

It is similar to the nature of the Imperial City Division, Jinyi Guard, and East and West Factories in later generations, but it is the lifeline that can pinch officials to death.

As a result, a large number of officials must have defected and come to vassal service. Of course, it will also cause deep hatred among the civilian clique, and no one wants to be put on a collar around their neck.

Chen Shou laughed at himself, he was already a Xiandan superior, he was a minister from the root, and those so-called Qingliu were enemies of heaven and death, what were you afraid of.

"In this way, we not only had conflicts with the North Division in the early stage, but even had some interest disputes with the South Ya. It seems that the only thing we can rely on is His Majesty's trust. Chen Shou said with some concern.

The four eunuchs looked at each other and smiled, and the eldest Miao De pinched his voice and said, "Brother Shou'er, you are young and have not experienced several palace battles. The people below have used all their skills, turning over rivers and seas, moving mountains and breaking streams, and in the end they are not as light as the emperor's words, this is the court. ”

His voice was inexplicably a little sad, I don't know if he remembered which failed experience, Chen Shou estimated that it was related to the time when Su Qiongzhi left the capital.

The age of these four godfathers must have experienced several winds and waves, and I am afraid that they have been the winners every time before to climb to this position, except for the last time... Let Yao Baobao take charge of the North Division and become a eunuch of Bingbi.

The kettle hissed, and the lid of the kettle rattled, Chen Shou hurriedly lifted it up and brewed a pot of fine tea.

After the first pot, new water was added, and after a little brewing, Chen Shou poured tea one by one from his godfather.

Wei Ning smiled: "Although Brother Shou'er is young, he is very safe in doing things, and some things are much more far-reaching than I thought. I think it's time to find him a family affair. ”

Miao De bluffed and gave him a roll of his eyes, "You're not afraid that Xiaozhi will tear your old face?" ”

"Alas, although Xiaozhi'er is good, you can't ask for a wife, otherwise Brother Shou'er's life will be difficult to protect."

Although Chen Shou was very curious, he never asked, if this kind of thing came to the right time, these four godfathers or Su Qiongzhi would definitely tell him as it was.

Now they don't say it, Bacheng is to protect himself, so he hasn't asked, and at this time he shook his head lightly and said with a smile: "Godfather doesn't know, I have already made an agreement with Li Wei of the General's Mansion when I came, and I will marry the second lady of the General's Mansion in the future." Another day, I will take her to meet a few godfathers. ”

"The daughter of the General's Mansion is also worthy of Brother Shou." Wei Ning sighed and said, "If it weren't for the Zhengxi General's Mansion, how could we have such a peaceful life in Daqi." But it is precisely this general's mansion that protects it, and the imperial court can't feel the threat of the Xiliang wolves, and it is becoming more and more disagreeable. In the past few years, the forbidden army has completely become a showcase, and the White Tiger Hall orchestrates day and night, singing night and night, and is about to become his mother's green building. ”

Chen Shou didn't have a specific understanding of Daqi's force, so he scooped up the kettle again, and took the opportunity to ask: "Godfather, except for the Xiliang Army, we have nothing in Daqi that can fight?" ”

"It's not nothing, in the past, when Taizu was in the past, it was really a fierce general like a cloud, and an elite soldier was like rain. Taizu's mansion set the world, determined to first go south and then north, destroy the Tang Dynasty in the south, and then clear the Quartet. ”

"It's a pity that God is jealous of talents, and when Taizu and his old man crossed the river with his troops, he actually made the unfortunate fall into the water. After being rescued, he contracted a vicious illness and died shortly after. ”

"Before Taizu crossed to the south, he set up a Quartet general to guard the four sides of Daqi. Later, with the Southern Tang Dynasty suing for peace, the Pingnan General's Mansion was abolished, and General Dingdong only retained the title, and the military power was returned to the local counties. The general's palace in the west fought against the Dangxiang, Tibetans, and Uighurs, so it remained unchanged. ”

Chen Shou listened to it with relish, and when he saw that he stopped to drink tea, he couldn't help asking, "What about the north?" ”

"You kid, you have to tell me to moisten my throat. In fact, the north side was more chaotic than the west side at the beginning, with hundreds of tribes of all sizes fighting endlessly, and they all wanted to get involved in the Central Plains, and the most disadvantaged also wanted to grab a handful of women and food. Who knows, later there was a Khitan hero called Abaoji, taking advantage of the civil strife in the Central Plains and the opportunity of Taizu's southern expedition, he unified the eight Khitan tribes in one fell swoop, and then encroached on the people of the same clan as them and established the Khitan State. ”

Chen Shou nodded secretly, this point is in line with history again, although the predecessors who crossed changed the general trend of the Central Plains, it did not affect the rise of the Khitan after all.

"This Khitan is different from other alien races, they are unprecedentedly powerful, and they have also learned from us to start establishing laws and rituals, and they don't blindly want to go south to plunder. However, the border is still a frequent war, because the northern front is too long, a general's palace can not manage it at all, so several times the power is divided and three section envoys are set up. They are the Pinglu Jiedu Envoy, the Youzhou Jiedu Envoy and the Yunnei Jiedu Envoy. ”

"The soldiers and horses in these three places can barely be regarded as capable of fighting, but they can't be compared with the Xiliang soldiers. They are better than a large number of people, there are more than 200,000 people everywhere, hehe, now they are all controlled by the local heroes of Youyun. ”

The kettle beeped, Chen Shou ignored it, and his mind was full of thoughts: This Daqi is really rotten to the bones.
