Chapter 9: Inexplicable Official Position
"The minister is guilty, and the minister will start preparing as soon as he returns." Qian Zhengkun bowed his head.
"Retreat!"
Liang Jia got up and left.
The ministers were all stunned. The matter hasn't been discussed yet, so many of us impeached Qian Zhengkun, you should give an attitude.
Although the Administration Office can handle a lot of political affairs, it involves a military secretary, and the emperor must personally nod it. After all, the emperor is already in power, even if he has no real power in his hands, many major state affairs must pass him procedurally.
The emperor left, Qian Zhengkun also left, the other ministers looked at each other, and after the four ministers left, they also left the hall one after another, each going back to his own home, looking for his mother.
Liang Jia returned to Chongning Hall here, and immediately asked Xiao Chunzi to rush to the gate of the palace and let Chen Yueqiang bring people into the palace.
After Chen Yueqiang's two hundred people entered the palace, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids looked at the more than two hundred beggars like fools.
When they came to the square in front of the Chongning Palace, they stood in line, but the soldiers were still looking around, looking at the splendid palace in front of them with novelty.
Chen Yueqiang scolded several times before the group of soldiers quieted down.
Liang Jia walked out of the palace and stood on the steps to look at the group of soldiers dressed in tatters, and he was also very worried in his heart. If possible, they will be the foundation of their own power, and I don't know if they can be relied on. Yesterday, I originally wanted to arrange for them to be my bodyguards, but after thinking about it, I still forgot about the outside help I was lacking now.
He did not hypocritically prevent the soldiers from bowing down to him, and only after the salute was he walked in front of them.
Looking at them with a smile, Liang Jia smiled and said, "I, it should be a robe with you, right?" ”
"Count!" Before Chen Yueqiang could speak, the soldiers replied in unison.
"Good. Then I'll treat you to a meal. Xiao Haruko, passing on my message, prepared a lunch with the imperial kitchen. They are all warriors who defend their homes and country, let them also taste the food in the palace. ”
"Yes." Koharuko hurriedly ran out.
"Come, preach the message." Liang Jia waved his hand, and another little eunuch walked up with the holy decree.
Chen Yueqiang hurriedly led his men to kneel on the ground. The holy decree written by Liang Jia is simply in the vernacular, so a group of big-headed soldiers below can understand it.
In the holy decree, Chen Yueqiang was named a thousand households of Jinyi Wei, and then three team officials known to Liang Jia were named to one hundred households, and Chen Yueqiang was given a quota of five hundred households for him to appoint by himself. All the remaining big-headed soldiers were named the small banner of the Jinyi Guard.
After the holy decree was recited, Chen Yueqiang and the two hundred soldiers were confused. Daliang Guo does not have the official position of Jinyiwei, let alone the official position of thousands of households and small flags, this official seal is a bit inexplicable.
The founding emperor of the Great Liang State once lived on the grassland, and he admired the concise and clear military organization on the grassland very much, so the basic military system of the Great Liang State was modeled after the nomadic people of the grassland.
Centurion, thousand, and ten thousand commanders, above are the official positions of generals and generals. Chen Yueqiang was a centurion, and there were only about 100 people under his hands, but later Ping Nanbo transferred dozens of subordinates of a centurion who died in battle to him, and also replenished his soldiers, so there were only about 200 people.
"Get up. Chen Qianhu, come inside with me. After Liang Jia finished speaking, he turned around and entered the Chongning Palace.
Entering the Chongning Palace, Chen Yueqiang stood on the side of the main hall with his head bowed, looking very restrained.
"Aren't you surprised, what is the official I gave you?" Liang Jia asked.
"Minister...... Dull! "The first time he called himself a minister, Chen Yueqiang was very unaccustomed to it.
"Come forward, I'll talk to you."
Liang Jia talked to Chen Yueqiang until noon, during which he also asked Ying Yue to come over and meet Chen Yueqiang.
After Chen Yueqiang left the Chongning Palace. After taking two hundred of his subordinates to eat a meal cooked by the imperial chef in the palace, he unexpectedly left the palace and went back to Ningde Mansion.
When Lu Mao reported the situation to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was also puzzled. I thought that Liang Jia brought back these two hundred people to cultivate his team, but he didn't expect to leave after a meal.
In a forest 100 miles away from the capital, more than 200 people led by Chen Yueqiang sat quietly on the ground and listened to Chen Yueqiang's speech.
It took more than an hour for Chen Yueqiang to explain all the things that Liang Jia had given him. As soon as I finished speaking, a white shadow flashed, and a pretty figure appeared in front of everyone.
Chen Yueqiang stood up, clasped his fists and bowed: "My subordinates have seen the commander." ”
Ying Yue nodded noncommittally, and then said softly: "I believe that the emperor has already explained the specific situation to you, and then I will talk about some specific arrangements." ”
Ying Yue's voice was very soft, but it was very clear to everyone's ears. Ying Yue is very smart, she not only conveyed Liang Jia's meaning very clearly, but also expanded what Liang Jia said.
It was said until it was dark, and then Ying Yue turned back to the capital. However, Chen Yueqiang and the more than 200 people under his command did not return to Ningde Mansion, but scattered in all directions.
After Liang Jia had dinner, he sat on the table and watched the folds quietly. He didn't deal with the twists and turns, but wanted to learn all kinds of information through the various twists and turns.
"This measure of yours is very flawed." Invite Yue's voice suddenly sounded.
Liang Jia looked up at Ying Yue, who didn't know when she appeared beside her, and said with a smile: "What can I do?" It's something that can't be helped. ”
"They are scattered all over the country all at once, there are no fetters, how do you control them to be honest and obedient, how do you guarantee that they will carry out your plan?"
"So, we had to look for a needle in a haystack. Half of these people carried out my plan, and it was considered a success. Liang Jia sighed.
There is no one available in his hands, and even if it is Chen Yueqiang, he cannot guarantee that it is credible. But in extraordinary times, he can only come up with this idea. In order to save trouble, he directly used Zhu Yuanzhang's routine, regardless of whether it was suitable or not in this Great Liang country.
"What else do I need to do?" Invite Yue asked.
"Teach me martial arts." Liang Jia said with a smile.
"You can't learn my martial arts."
"Okay." Liang Jia nodded and took out the scratch card. I scraped two in the afternoon, two thank you for your patronage, and he didn't dare to scratch the third one when he was angry.
It must be scraped now, or it will be reset tomorrow.
Carefully scraped open, the first word in his eyes was not the word thank you, Liang Jia felt a little better. Keep scratching it, and it reads: "Congratulations on winning the lottery and getting two ears of corn." ”
What the hell, let Lao Tzu cook corn and eat it? Liang Jia threw the scratch card aside in disappointment, ignoring the two ears of corn that had just appeared on the table.
But Liang Jia, who had just lay down, suddenly jumped up and rushed straight to the imperial case, picked up the two ears of corn, and hugged them in his arms like a baby.
Thinking of the words of those rogues captives outside Guanglan County, Liang Jia felt more and more the preciousness of these two ears of corn in his arms.
"If you can have a little food, who wants to be coerced by them to be a thief!"
Although corn is not a staple food, in this ancient time when famines often occurred, it was used to fill the stomach and reduce the number of victims.
"Haruko!"
"The slave is here." Haruko ran in with sleepy eyes.
"Put this thing away for me, and remember to keep it as if it were a priceless treasure."
