As for their sons and nephews, I am afraid that they are not as good as them in this regard. In this comfortable nest in the capital, it's okay to enjoy the glory and wealth. If you really go to the battlefield, although you can't say that all the top ones are pustules. It can be said that this group is fighting in a group now, if there is no family support, they can scare the guys who pee their pants, and there are not many people who can hold up.

It's just that the current emperor has always been dictatorial. Now that he has made up his mind, no one dares to fool him. Even if several of them have hereditary titles, they are now the commanders and deputy commanders in charge of the four major battalions and the Eighth Army of the Imperial Forest. But I don't dare to have any objections, at least not to have public objections.

Back to the front of the palace, the few people in the yamen outside the main gate of the palace can only look at me, I can look at you, and their faces are full of gloom. For a long time, the commander of the palace's former commander, Yongcheng Hou Zheng Yande, muttered: "The king of England interfered in military affairs like this, and instead of blaming him, the emperor blamed us for laxity in the armament of the Eighth Army of the Imperial Forest. It seems that the DPRK and China are about to change the sky. ”

All of you here are descendants of the founding heroes and hereditary nobles. Although more than 100 years have been peaceful, the courage of the ancestors has long been wiped out. But there are so many founding heroes, and there are not a few families who have fallen in recent years. Not to mention that it can still be passed down after more than 100 years, and it has been entrusted with important tasks by the emperor, these people are not like human sperm?

I didn't expect it before, but now that this Yongcheng Hou said it, everyone immediately reacted. As far as the King of England is concerned, it is not a big deal. In the past, if there was another prince, whether it was right or wrong, the emperor would have reprimanded him harshly. But this time, the king was not only reprimanded, but even the emperor did not even say a word of reprimand.

Even King Yong, after the funeral for the queen, took the opportunity to travel the mountains and rivers, and did not say anything, which is not ordinary. It was the first time that the emperor had made such a mistake to that prince, and it was the first time that he had made such an understatement.

Regarding Yongcheng Hou's words, Jiaxing Bo was silent for a while before saying: "Yongcheng Hou, you are the commander of the capital, you have to make an idea of this kind of thing." Also, a few of you have something to say. Don't forget, all of your sons and nephews are in the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest. If he is really transferred to the border army, what will he do when the time comes? Could it be that we really have to sit back and watch here? ”

Jiaxingbo had an anxious tone, and the commanders of the front division of the palace almost shook their heads in unison. Only Xu Bojun, a man from Guancheng County who served as the commander of the infantry army, said: "Now there are only two ways, one is to think of ideas, to dispel the emperor's idea." The Eighth Army of the Royal Forest remains the same. ”

"Second, find a way to transfer your sons and nephews from the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest out of the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest. Either they were sent to the guards of all stripes, or they were simply converted to civilian officials. Now in addition to these two methods, what other ways are there? And the first way, you also know the emperor's temperament. If you want to dispel him, you can't do it without a good reason. ”

"Think about it, if we have a way to dispel the idea of the emperor, will we still be here with a sad face? At the moment, there is only the second option. After all, the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, we can still talk. But the question at the moment is, our children and nephews have been transferred, what about other nobles and children of the family? ”

"Don't forget, we nobles have always been in the same spirit. If our children are transferred out, how will the other nobles be explained? I just calculated, including your sons and nephews, there are more than 100 children of the family in the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest. Even if more than a dozen civil servants are removed, there are still seventy or eighty left. ”

"Although the positions are generally not very high, most of them are around five or six grades, but after all, the number is here. If they were all transferred out, so many military attachés would be transferred out together, the emperor would definitely be furious. When the time comes, we will not be able to explain it to each other. I mean, it's not realistic to tune it all out at the same time. ”

"We can release them from the outside world, or in the name of reversing, and gradually transfer them out of the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest. Anyway, the emperor didn't give a deadline, so we can figure it out slowly. Even if the emperor urged, the charter was taken out according to the emperor's requirements, but the Eighth Army of the Imperial Forest could not be trained for two or three years. So, we can take a step-by-step approach to replacement. ”

"Every year, doesn't the imperial court have to select a certain number of military attaches from the border army, or enter the guard division, or transfer to the four major battalions? Beginning next year, one-third of the military attachés who will be transferred back from the border army will be selected and gradually replaced. As long as the military department and the Privy Council say hello, it shouldn't be too difficult. ”

"Who doesn't need anyone these days? Although our nobles and their flocks of birds and civil officials have always been well water and not river water. But after all, we are in charge of the front division of the palace, and there are few things that their civil officials ask us to do? Although they don't have many children, there are still some of them? ”

"Transferred to the local guard, although the promotion was a little slower, and the salary was only half left. But those sons and nephews of yours, who cares about that bit of salary? As for promotions, you didn't point to them to pay homage to the prime minister anyway, did you? Besides, the Guards aren't all drudgery. In some places, the fat of the guards is short, and the income of a year is much more than the amount of silver guarded. ”

"With the ability of our palace commanders, it is not difficult to adjust a fat shortage for your son and nephew. They have a looser hand, we can also make up for less, right? Besides, unless you get the emperor's grace, you will be able to do it from the fourth grade if you die in the Eighth Army of the Imperial Forest, and it is better to go out and make more money. ”

This man from Guancheng County is a bit cunning and cunning, as soon as he said this, the rest of the people looked at each other and nodded slightly. Also, there is really no other way than this method now. It's just that Jiaxing Bo was unwilling to say: "This is the reason, but the king of England has done such a thing, let's just sit back and watch here?" ”

"If this becomes a common practice in the future, the king of England will give us a reprimand today, and if there is another prince or a prince or something tomorrow, and we will chew some bullshit in the emperor's place, we will not be able to stand it. You know, these princes are staring at this military affairs and trying to find opportunities to meddle. ”

"If you don't think about it and cut off these people's thoughts, will there be a good life for a few of us in the future? This head must not be opened like this. I think, is it to find a way for the prince? After all, he is the prince, although he has no real power, but he can say something in front of the emperor, right? ”

As soon as Jiaxingbo's words fell, several people present shook their heads. Especially that Yongcheng Hou, the opposition was the most fierce: "Old Gao, are you confused? The prince is also what we can find? If we find the prince, we will have real trouble? Don't you really see what happened today? ”

"The emperor did not even say a word to the British king's rash interference in military affairs. But I'll tell you, if today's matter is changed to the crown prince, the emperor will be furious. The crown prince is already the prince, if he interferes in military affairs again, I am afraid that the emperor will have to worry about his throne and whether he can sit safely. ”

"Don't forget, although the prince has never had real power over the years, after all, he has been the prince for so many years. The foundation is far from being comparable to a British king who has been out of the palace for less than a year. Therefore, the emperor can be regarded as not seeing the king's move, but he will definitely not get too close to the prince and us, and he will also turn a blind eye. ”

"Over the years, the emperor has not been very concerned about the relationship between the prince and civil officials. But how many of those military attaches who are good friends with the crown prince have good results? Isn't that a few years old, and then degraded, rushed home? In the matter of military power, the emperor is very wary of the princes. ”

"Also, Lao Gao, I said something that shouldn't be said today, how to fight for power between the heavenly families, whether it is Lao Tzu killing his son, or his son killing Lao Tzu, it is their own business. Those of us had better be impartial. Whoever achieves that position, we will be loyal to whoever we are. ”

"Don't try to get involved in the struggle for the throne, and don't take sides with any of the princes. Especially be careful not to get too close to the crown prince, otherwise you will really commit the emperor's taboo. When you were the emperor, you set up the front division of the palace, why did you put a large group of civil and military officials instead of using, but after using our founding heroes? ”

"It's because of us people who carry titles on our bodies. Every year, even if you don't do anything, you don't have to worry about food and clothing if you keep this empty title. It's not like those civil and military officials who can do anything in order to be promoted. As long as we don't rebel, as long as we are loyal to the emperor, we don't have to worry about anything. ”

"There are so many founding fathers, but how many families have fallen in the past hundred years, how many families are left now? Especially you and me, can basically keep the title that our ancestors won in a hundred battles back then, and there is no defeat until now, and there is no demote or knighthood? It's not how smart our ancestors were, it's that they kept the creed I said earlier. ”

"Talking less and kowtowing more is the truth. Also, the emperor and the crown prince are now estranged. Among the princes, the emperor is probably the most wary of the crown prince now. We went to the crown prince at this time, no matter what the reason, it was not what the emperor wanted to see. Once discovered by the emperor, the prince may not have anything to do, but we will be unlucky. ”

Speaking of this, this Yongcheng Hou hesitated, looked at the few people present, gritted his teeth and said, "Since I have said so much today, I might as well remind you." If your sons and nephews have a deep relationship with the prince, you should go back and take care of it. Although you can't cut off contact right away, you should try to move around less with the prince. ”

"I feel now that we can't sit in the position of the prince for too long. At most, if the crown prince is not deposed, you can gouge out my eyeballs. Over the years, the emperor's dissatisfaction with the crown prince has not been a day or two, but he has not expressed it. ”

"It's just that I don't know what the reason is, so that the emperor has been putting up with it. But the emperor's patience is not unlimited, and sooner or later it will break out. A few days ago, after the assassination of the British king, the emperor purged the court situation, did you really not experience anything? ”

"There are also three kings who died violently, is the emperor really as calm as he is now. I am here to advise you, when the emperor can't bear it anymore, that is, when our crown prince is deposed. When you go back, think about what to do, and don't put the lives of a family into it because of one or two children and nephews. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that we nobles have always been in the same spirit, I wouldn't have said something taboo today. Today, if you listen to these words, you will listen to them, and those who cannot listen to them will go out of this room and forget them. ”
