The pro-army Governor's Mansion, which is an institution where the chief commander is the third grade, seems to be just the emperor's bodyguard, but in fact, it is now in charge of the two major powers of intelligence and supervision, which is equivalent to the embroidered clothes of the Han Dynasty.

In particular, this pro-army governor's mansion is only responsible to the emperor, and even the prime ministers of the three provinces have no right to govern.

Even the prime minister was under the supervision of the pro-military governor's office.

Compared with the rumors of the Imperial Historical Tower, the impeachment of supervision, and the pro-military Governor's Mansion walked in the dark, and the means were more secretive and powerful.

No one knew how many spies there were in the Governor's Mansion, because the list was only in the hands of the emperor.

Pei Xingyan received the emperor's summoning order and hurried to the palace.

He is now serving as the deputy military envoy of the Zhongwu Army, plus the post of general Zuo Yiwei. However, compared with the actual position of the deputy military envoy of the Loyal Army, the current military position of the Twelve Guards is actually empty.

Under today's military system, the real heavy troops are the envoys of the towns and the military envoys, the original twelve guards and four mansions, in addition to the four mansions responsible for the palace forbidden city defense, the rest of the twelve guards, in fact, only become an empty yamen, no substantive duties, the armies are not subordinate to the twelve guards, so although the twelve guards have not been abolished, but their positions are only a title, at least for now.

Pei Xingyan handed over his general's tiger talisman in front of the palace ban, the civil official used the fish talisman and the military general used the tiger talisman, and the prince and prime minister gave the unicorn jade talisman.

After layers of palace bans, he finally came to the front court, and the chamberlain took him to meet him in the side hall.

After waiting for a long time, the emperor summoned him.

Pei Xingyan straightened his robe, and looked at himself carefully at a bronze mirror in the side hall, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he went to the main hall with the inner attendant.

"Pei Saburo, I have good news for you, your father has decided to belong to Daqin." The emperor smiled at Pei Xingyan and said.

Pei Xingyan replied to the emperor, "I have been cut off from my father for a long time. ”

There are two fathers and sons, one Shi Qin and one Shi Sui.

In fact, the pro-army Governor's Mansion also found Pei Xingyan several times before, all of them asking if he had any correspondence with Pei Renji, but since Luo Cheng established Yang Yin as the Son of Heaven in Liaodong, his father has not contacted this side anymore.

Now that he heard the news of his father, Pei Xingyan was still very happy.

"When will my father enter the court?"

"I can't enter the court for the time being, because Wang Shichong is here, and it's not easy for him to leave."

Pei Xingyan was a little disappointed, he was very worried about his father's safety, at this time Luo Cheng comforted him and said, "Your father is going to do a big thing, and now Luoyang has been defeated by Li Mi several times, and there is a shortage of food in the city." The people of Luoyang were tired of war, Wang Shichong had neither a source of soldiers, nor food and grass, and he was already extremely poor, but he still refused to give up, not only refused to surrender Li Mi, but also refused to surrender to Li Yuan and Li Yuan. ”

Of course, Luo Cheng also told him that the small court in Luoyang no longer wanted to continue to consume with Wang Shichong, and Yuan Wendu and others were already willing to join the court with the efforts of the pro-army governor's mansion.

It's just that Wang Shichong is an obstacle.

Now Wei Wensheng has been called sick and lives in Luoyang City and does not care about the world.

Wei Wen's more than 20,000 soldiers and horses are now under the command of Pei Renji, plus Pei Renji's soldiers and horses when he commanded western Henan before, Pei Renji now has about 30,000 people in his hands.

And in Wang Shichong's hands, there are about sixty or seventy thousand.

"Your father wants to get rid of Wang Shichong, but he is afraid that Li Mi will take the opportunity to seize Luoyang, so he asks the imperial court to send troops to respond, and I am ready to let you lead a group of soldiers and horses to Luoyang on the ships of the Donglai fleet."

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing."

"In this operation, there can't be many soldiers and horses, I can only give you a few thousand men and horses, and it will pass through the territory of Dou Jiande and Li Mi, and the north is the place controlled by Yang Yichen Xiao Yu, and there is Li Yuan to the west, sandwiched between several soldiers and horses, if you are not careful, you may not be able to come back, have you thought about it?"

"I've thought about it."

"Very good, I have already issued an order to confer your father as the Duke of Jiguo, the envoy of Henan Province, and now I will grant you the title of Xingyang Taishou."

After Pei Xingyan left, Luo Cheng summoned Wei Zheng and other prime ministers to discuss matters.

In the past six months, Luo Cheng has been busy consolidating the newly occupied Huainan Fanyang and other places, and at the same time restoring production in Shandong, he is also very busy.

Now that the autumn harvest has passed, the situation reported in various places is not bad.

"Your Majesty, after the autumn harvest, the grain collected in Huainan, Shandong, Hebei and other places can be self-sufficient for the people. Although His Majesty decreed that the rent of the world be exempted for one year, we purchased grain from the people through the law of peace, forbade merchants to buy grain privately, and forbade grain from going out of the border, which greatly reduced the pressure on supplying the army. ”

"In addition, this year is another bumper year in Liaodong, and we can continue to transport grain into the customs."

Du Ruhui said that through the ticket quotation method, the merchants were responsible for transporting grain from various places to the garrisons of the armies, and then exchanged for tickets for special commercial goods such as salt, iron, tea, wine, slaves, cattle and horses, which greatly relieved the pressure on the imperial court.

Although in the end, the grain still needs to be pushed by people, but the way of transportation is different. What the imperial court needs to transport grain is to recruit the people, and the recruitment of the people to serve will inevitably work the people, and even cause the people to be dissatisfied.

But although the merchants also employed people when they transported grain, they had to pay to recruit and hire people, and the people went voluntarily and received income.

Again, businessmen organize manpower and manage transportation, which is more professional and efficient.

"As long as Huainan, Shandong, and Hebei continue to be stable next year, and there will be no wars, no floods, droughts, and locust plagues, then these places will basically be able to restore self-sufficiency next year, and even be able to supply the garrisons of various provinces, and store military rations for the next war."

Fang Xuanling reported.

It is said that Song Laosheng reported that the Goguryeo people in the two counties of Lelang and Obifang had set off another large-scale rebellion, and now his army could not be suppressed, so he asked the imperial court to send more troops and horses.

"Your Majesty, do you think that the Goguryeo people in Xuansu County have been dealt with too harshly, resulting in the Goguryeo people in the two counties of Lelang Belt Fang are also making chaos, can they be appeased?"

Luo Cheng smiled.

"What's the appeasement?"

"We can stop reducing the Goguryeo people to slavery, and only pursue those who rebel and rebel, and regardless of the rest, they will be assigned to Qi'an and land will be granted······

Before Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Luo Cheng had already waved his hand to stop him.

"No, my strategy will not change, Goguryeo is a pustule, it has been bad enough in the past seven hundred years, there is no need to keep it now, pick up this pus, although it will bleed, but it will be bad blood, it will be squeezed out with pus, and only after removing these pus and blood, it will be really good, otherwise, the more you keep it, it will cause more hidden dangers, and now it is squeezed out, just a little pus and blood, there will be a wound, but only some time will be completely healed. But if you keep it, maybe one day it will flow poison to your heart and heart, and it will be difficult to save it at that time. ”

"I can't leave hidden dangers for future generations, so I should get rid of them now."

"Let Shixin send the deputy military envoy Xu Shiji to lead troops to reinforce Song Laosheng, and transfer the soldiers of the five Turkic feudatories of Xi Qiqi and the Turkic Clans to enter the peninsula together to quell the chaos, and tell Song Laosheng not to tell them any mercy, he let him rebel, all the way to the past, arrest every Goguryeo he saw, send them back to the Central Plains to be sold as slaves, and then tell the soldiers that every time they catch a Goguryeo, the money from the sale will be rewarded to them in the end."

Luo Cheng did not listen to the advice of the prime ministers at all on the issue of dealing with the Goguryeo people, and mercy was not for them. Besides, if he was merciful to them, then how could Luo Cheng receive these lands and give them to the people of the Han family?

Who is his own person and who is an immature wolf, Luo is very clear.
