"The official family, Shang Dushuai was sent to meet him."

"Xuan."

Shang Hong moved into the palace to see His Majesty, and he saluted with a glance, looking respectful, and showed enough respect for Liu Chengyou, the son of heaven, which was very in line with his consistent style.

Although Liu Chengyou tightened his face every day, his attitude reacted calmly, and he sat down to speak, saying: "The guard department has a total of tens of thousands of horses and marches, defending Tokyo, suppressing the world, and consolidating the community. Shang Qing is a minister of the country, and he has always been loyal to the king, and he trusts him with his guards and pro-army, so I can rest assured! ”

Liu Chengyou said the scene, Shang Hongqian was also very face-saving, although he was not sincere and fearful, but his words were very conservative: "Relying on Your Majesty's trust, the ministers are terrified." ”

"Shang Qing has been in the army for many years, and he is also familiar with the affairs of the guards and the army. Liu Chengyou asked meaningfully: "In the past, there were many discordant and disorderly affairs in the forbidden army, did Shang Qing think about it, how to carry out the work and deal with military affairs next?" ”

Hearing this, Shang Hongqian couldn't help but glance at Liu Chengyou, almost without thinking, and said: "Forgive the ministers for being stupid, facing military affairs, they are at a loss, and I also ask Your Majesty to show you the direction." ”

Liu Chengyou couldn't help but look at Shang Hongqian again, and saw that this veteran looked cautious, but from his response, he couldn't help but think secretly, this person is really mediocre? It seems to be going along with his own thoughts......

Putting away the chaotic thoughts, Liu Chengyou directly issued his instructions to Shang Hongqian: "I heard that the troops in Tokyo, the officers and soldiers, have many slackness, lax discipline, and unstable military morale. Therefore, the first thing Shang Qing had to do was to lead the command of the armies, stabilize the people's hearts, strictly enforce military discipline, and strengthen training. Anything can be messed up, the army can't be messed up! ”

"Yes!" As soon as Liu Chengyou's words fell, Shang Hongqian was like an initiation, and said: "What Your Majesty said is very true, and the minister understands. ”

Liu Chengyou directly ignored his flattery, waved his hand and said: "Since the beginning of the year, the forbidden army has been frequently mobilized, marching westward, suppressing bandits, moving to the army, and moving to the west, and the number of colonels and soldiers has been relocated and supplemented, and it has gradually become chaotic. ”

Shang Hongqian nodded subconsciously, then his face was embarrassed, and he took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, the affairs are complicated, and with the ability and talent of the ministers, I am afraid it will be difficult to do everything and achieve the will." ”

Seeing this, Liu Chengyou thought about it and said naturally: "I will meet the Privy Council to assist the guard secretary to sort out, Shang Qing and rest assured." ”

"Yes!" Shang Hongqian didn't think much about it, and responded.

Liu Chengyou's move was to strengthen the Privy Council's jurisdiction over the guards and pro-army.

The Privy Council and the Department of Guards have a large part of their functions and powers overlapping, and the names of soldiers, garrisons, rewards and punishments, and relocation and supplementation can be managed by both yamen. However, when Shi and Liu were in charge of the Guards, they were very strong and specialized in their work, and the Privy Council could not interfere with the forbidden army under normal circumstances. The state machinery and the Privy Council have discussed it, and it needs to be submitted to Liu Chengyou, and then approved by Shi Hongzhao and Liu Xin before it can be successfully implemented.

The guards all refer to the weight, how can they not be afraid of Liu Chengyou. Of course, this is not simply a matter of generals, but since the Guards Department has its own name, its influence has continued to expand, its powers have expanded, and it has gradually become a system of its own.

That is, Shi Hongzhao and Liu Xin are penchant for murder and are unpopular, otherwise Liu Chengyou's plan to dissolve and leave his job will be so smooth. And now, Liu Chengyou plans to continue to suppress the Guards Division, and change two nice words called "combing" and "optimization".

Of course, it can't be achieved overnight, in the affairs of the army, Liu Chengyou always reminds himself not to be in a hurry.

The Privy Council's participation in the management of the forbidden army's name, relocation, rewards and punishments, transfers, and other affairs is Liu Chengyou's means of suppressing the power of the Guards Division, increasing the authority of the Privy Council, and using it to restrain the Guards Division.

As for the deeper reforms, it is still necessary for Liu Chengyou to gradually advance while consolidating the monarchy and enhancing the authority of the Son of Heaven. Of course, in this process, the feelings of the guards and commanders must also be considered.

And just for the current action, Shang Hongqian's cooperation is still needed. But obviously, with Shang Hongqian's ability and means, when facing Liu Chengyou's "scalpel", he can't make any effective refutation, or he has no intention of doing it.

After receiving Liu Chengyou's instructions, Shang Hongqian respectfully withdrew from the vertical arch hall, stood in front of the hall, looked back, and lowered his head slightly, as if he had understood.

"Shang Du Shuai." The greeting sounded, and there was some uncomfortable sinister in his tone.

Shang Hongqian came back to his senses in shock, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Li Shaoyou coming slowly with a hand behind his back, with a little "spring breeze" smile on his mouth. Seeing him, Shang Hongqian responded lightly: "Envoy Li!" ”

In front of the Son of Heaven, you can keep a low profile, but in front of a descendant like Li Shaoyou, there is no need to lower your posture.

Li Shaoyou didn't care, and asked with a light smile: "Is it all handsome and face-your-all?" ”

"Your Majesty is in the hall!" Shang Hongqian nodded, signaled to the Vertical Arch Palace, and left on his own to return to the Guards. Still pondering, it seems that he is thinking about how to fulfill Liu Chengyou's instructions.

Looking at Shang Hongqian's back, the smile on Li Shaoyou's face narrowed slightly, and he secretly sighed: "What a lucky person!" It's a pity ......."

The position of the forbidden commander was established, and Li Shaoyou slowly came back to his senses, and he also knew where his father had lost. The most suitable candidate on the surface is often the most unsuitable!

Shaking his head slightly, Li Shaoyou turned around, sorted out his robes, and asked for an audience.

"Official, this is the number of subordinate institutions of the Wude Division organized by the minister, please take a look." solemnly presented a thick piece of music to Liu Chengyou.

Liu Chengyou became interested, put down the affairs in his hand, and took over and browsed. Li Shaoyou was below, explaining to him.

According to Li Shaoyou's plan, under the Wu De Division, it was divided into three investigation departments: military, political, and civilian, each of which set up a capital to hold family affairs, and placed left and right commands, and then set up four cadre offices, and a number of detectives.

As for the staffing, there are 800 military detectives, 400 civilian and political detectives, all of whom are selected from the elite to fill up. In addition, there are detailed rules for the regulation of the Martial Arts Division.

It can be seen that Li Shaoyou is attentive, and he has some talent. And, from the report submitted above, Liu Chengyou can feel that his cousin, the ambition to "do a big job".

Li Shaoyou bowed slightly, waiting for Liu Chengyou's reply, although his face was steady, he was inevitably anxious in his heart. He didn't know if Liu Chengyou would agree with his idea. There were no such concerns before, but nowadays, this cousin is becoming more and more elusive.

"Let's try it!" Finally, Liu Chengyou put down the "Wude Division Establishment Strategy" and agreed.

"Yes!" Li Shaoyou breathed a sigh of relief, his eyebrows and eyes raised with some joy, and bowed his hand.

"I only need one result, the military, political and civil customs in Tokyo will be in my ears, and no wind or grass will be skipped!" Liu Chengyou commanded lightly.

"Yes!" Li Shaoyou answered again. Hanging his head, he only felt that the "power of the Son of Heaven" on Liu Chengyou was getting stronger and stronger.

With Liu Chengyou's approval, Wu Desi will transform from a grass platform team to a formal secret service functional organization.
