Chapter 51 The erosive prince Sanwei

The policy of Jianbi Qingye was sent to the border in the form of an edict, which was more powerful than the emperor's decree, and it was a government action, so Zhao Zhen was not worried that something would go wrong. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Now he is visiting his East Palace under the leadership of Li Di, and under Li Di's introduction, he knows that his East Palace is the same as the imperial court!

The East Palace, owned by the imperial court, is also owned, but it is smaller and has fewer personnel, but the basic structure is the same.

Zhao Zhen immediately said to Li Di after the visit: "These officials are all dismissed and arranged to be sent to various ministries, my East Palace is not allowed to ask for these, the official positions of the court have been perfected, and the prince's East Palace does not need these so-called small courts at all!" ”

Li Dimu looked at the prince in front of him dumbfounded, what is this trying to do?

The prince's pavilion is for the purpose of reserving talents, and to put it mildly, it is for promoting his own people after the prince ascends the throne.

But then he came to his senses, and the prince wanted to tell the official that he had no wrong thoughts, but this was too high-profile.

Zhao Zhen looked at Li Di's hesitant appearance and said, "This is what I mean, the more I have no real power, the better it is for me." The official family is now frail and sickly, and as a son, I can only make him feel relieved like this. ”

The relationship between the crown prince and the emperor was extremely complex and contradictory. On the one hand, the emperor needs to have an heir, but the existence of an heir will pose a certain threat to the imperial power. Because the crown prince had great power, he often clashed with the emperor, which led to his deposition or death.

The current Zhao Heng doesn't seem to have any dissatisfaction with himself, but the gossip in Tokyo has boiled over, especially after he has participated in the concert, and he has even used people to hold high the banner of the prince's heroic talent.

This is extremely dangerous, it was not easy for him to establish a filial son in front of the cheap father, and now he has been completely destroyed by someone with a heart, Chen Lin came to the East Palace several times to visit him, with mockery in his eyes.

This made Zhao Zhen very uncomfortable in his heart, although he had some performance ingredients for the cheap father, but he also had a true feeling for Zhao Heng himself.

After exchanging views with several people, everyone unanimously decided to retreat into advance, to respond to all changes without change, and with the continuous strengthening of the emperor's power, the power of the crown prince was weakened more and more.

But on the other hand, it was precisely because the power of the crown prince no longer posed a threat to the emperor, and the emperor had enough power to restrain his other sons, so the later crown princes succeeded to the throne more smoothly.

Cai Boyu demanded that there should be a descendant army of his own no matter what.

In his words: "If you want to protect yourself in this era, you can't do it without arming!" ”

But Wang Yuyan and Zhao Miaoyuan strongly objected: "Joke! You have an independent armed force that is loyal to you, is this still a retreat as an advance? ”

Zhao Zhen is also having a headache about this matter.

The current prince's three guards are completely different from those in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the guards who are said to be the princes are actually filled with forbidden troops, and their boss has no one else except the official family, and he is only the second in their eyes!

Since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the military system has completely collapsed, and Taizu has established a professional military system, which is more dangerous, but also more centralized.

After the release of military power with a glass of wine, the general's control over the army was greatly reduced, and all the forbidden troops became the emperor's forbidden army. Among them, the elite is responsible for guarding the official's family.

However, the prince's three guards can also be used to transform, anyway, Zhao Zhen didn't plan to kill the king, these soldiers are just a means for him to protect himself, Zhao Heng's health is getting worse and worse, in case he dies, he will become the boss.

After thinking about it again, Zhao Zhen still agreed to the little fat man's suggestion.

The so-called prince Sanwei did not have a government at all, and the Tang Dynasty Li Er killed his brother and forced his father to give way to the situation so that future generations were alert, and the highly guarded Taizu did not set up a government office for Sanwei at all.

There are only three commanders in the three guards, with a total of more than 1,500 people, all of whom live in the courtyard west of the East Palace.

When Zhao Zhen came far behind under the leadership of Li Di, he was stunned by the scene in front of him, what kind of prince Sanwei is this, it is simply a refugee camp!

It's a bit too much to say that it's a refugee camp, but it's a world away from Peng Qi's guards.

They usually have nothing to do at all, and only appeared once when Zhao Zhen was canonized as the crown prince. The three guards of the prince served as honor guards, guards, and ceremonial servants respectively.

Peng Qi and the others are the prince's personal guards, responsible for protecting the prince's safety at close range. Compared with his Xun Wei and Yu Wei, Peng Qi and others' personal guards are more valued.

The reason is that the prince can't use 1,500 honor guards when he travels!

But in the end, these people are too miserable, Zhao Zhen pointed to the people in the courtyard who were drying quilts under the sun and asked, "This is the forbidden army of the prince and the three guards?" ”

Peng Qi nodded awkwardly, and Li Di on the side also looked indifferent, in his opinion, these fighting men were humble and low, and they couldn't get on the stage at all.

As a prime minister, how can he put these fighting men in his eyes?

"The prince's three guards are just for the purpose of honor guards, they can afford to carry the banner and protect the brine, what's wrong with this?"

Facing Li Di's words, Zhao Zhen glanced at him obliquely and said, "Then why does the forbidden army of the Fourth Army have such a high salary?" They're just jugglers! ”

"How can the Fourth Army compare with these people?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head hard and walked into the courtyard and said, "Li Xianggong, go back first." ”

"What does Your Highness want to fight for these people? By no means, the more erosive the prince Sanwei is, the better it will be for you! ”

"Lone doesn't need to pretend to be pitiful to win the sympathy of others!"

Li Di's strategy made Zhao Zhen feel disgusted, this kind of wisdom of the court is really disgraceful to use on the soldiers, the status of the soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty is already very low, and the civil officials and the military attachΓ©s often look down on them, how can they afford these soldiers?

Zhao Zhen knew that Li Di was for his own good, and wanted to use these lazy princes and three guards to win sympathy, but Zhao Zhen couldn't do this, what about winning sympathy, and what about the hearts of the dead?

When people's hearts fall down, they can't help them if they want to!

Li Di still left helplessly, the prince's eyes reminded him of Lu Zongdao, that fish-headed participation in politics has turned the prince into an upright person, Lu Zongdao is very competent.

Peng Qi walked up to a man who was fetching water and said, "Lao Jiu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down, you quickly gather your subordinates to visit!" ”

"It turned out to be Peng Laoqi, I don't have time to joke with you, the weather is good today, the brothers are preparing to take out the flag guard of honor and wash it, and it will be moldy after being placed in the warehouse for too long!"

As he said it, he walked to the storeroom with a bucket of water, and before he could say it, his words were true, and the gray rags turned bright red and bright yellow under the wash of the clear water.

Great Song Huode, this may be the reason why the Song Dynasty is called Yan Song in the Three Character Classic.

How could Li Jiu, a veteran soldier, not see the child standing in the capital, not to mention that he was wearing a red and purple gown!
