And at this time, the bad people he thought had been exterminated jumped out to make trouble again, and suddenly inspired the hatred buried deep in his heart, if he didn't exterminate them, how could he be worthy of those who died?

Therefore, he thought with hatred, this time he must completely exterminate this bad person, but he can't let the newly established guys in Dali Temple steal the soup, otherwise where will his face as the commander of the Jinyi Guard go?

Zheng Wen looked at Zheng Yi who was silent, his face did not change, but he smiled in his heart, as soon as he looked at Zheng Yi's face, he guessed the thoughts in Zheng Yi's heart, but the thoughts of the people below, Zheng Wen will not care about it, there will be motivation if there is competition, as a superior, you have to create contradictions and create motivation for the people below, otherwise they are all a harmonious mess, what do you want the superiors to do, let alone two departments that have espionage attributes? It's better to contain each other and supervise each other.

Bathed in the morning light, Zheng Wenshi suddenly asked, "Zheng Yi, what are you saying about my three good brothers at the moment?" Are you bathing in this morning light like me? ”

Zheng Yi heard this, but said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, the three princes of Yan, Zhou and Tang are all dragons and phoenixes among people, and the ministers don't know what they are doing?" But the three princes last night must not have slept very peacefully, they are not as good as Your Majesty after all! Zheng Yi said calmly.

Zheng Wen looked at Zheng Yi's serious appearance, but he smiled, and then said: "I thought Qing was a martial artist and an upright character, but I didn't expect this sycophant to shoot to a new height, but I like this!" Zheng Wen said with a relaxed and half-joking face.

"What the minister said is indeed heartfelt, and there is no half a lie!" Zheng Yi said with a serious face.

Zheng Wen saw it, but he laughed for a long time before he spoke: "Keep an eye on my three good brothers, don't let them do bad things in the near future, understand?" Zheng Wen stared at Zheng Yi's eyes and said extremely seriously.

As soon as Zheng Yi heard it, he immediately understood Zheng Wen's words, and soon after, the feudal officials of the court will go to this Yanjing City to report on their work, and congratulate the new emperor on the throne, especially there are several important generals who hold military power like this, that is the most important thing, Your Majesty is afraid that the three princes will make some trouble, and what does it have to do with these heavy generals who hold military power, it seems that Your Majesty's attention, that is beyond your imagination?

Zheng Yi was shocked in his heart, nodded heavily at Zheng Wen, and then said: "No, the minister knows how to do it, Your Majesty can rest assured." ”

After a pause, he said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, Chen Tuo, the envoy of the Taiyuan Marquis Guanzhong, seems to have something to do with the Tang prince Zheng Jiao, three years ago, Chen Tuo served as the envoy of the Guanzhong Festival, and the Tang prince made a force in front of the first emperor, and over the years, there are still some contacts between the two sides, although the Tang prince also has a relationship with the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion. Zheng Yi said truthfully.

Zheng Wen listened, but said with a smile: "It's okay, I have heard of this Taiyuan Houfu, and I will rest with the country, it is a hereditary Houfu family, this Chen Tuo can be the envoy of Guanzhong Festival, he must be a smart person, I believe that he will make the right choice." ”

Zheng Wen said disapprerovingly, but his inner thoughts were not so disapproving, he could go from a transparent prince to the throne and become the emperor, and he could hold the authority of the great cadres in less than two months, calling for wind and rain, his sensitivity to power was extraordinary, he didn't believe that this Chen Tuo would take refuge in Tang King Zheng Jiao, but he was suspicious that it was the emperor's temperament, especially when it came to military power, he would never take it lightly.

So, he commanded with an expressionless face: "Zheng Yi, this Taiyuan Marquis Mansion and this Chen Tuo, you Jinyiwei pay attention to it, don't make any mistakes!" ”

"No!" Zheng Yi listened to Zheng Wen's words, his heart sank, and he immediately spoke, His Majesty's inconsistent words made him have a deep understanding of the words "Companion Jun is like a tiger", suspicious that is the nature of the emperor, compared to the first emperor, His Majesty today, is more like an emperor, he is well versed in the true meaning of power, and there are various ways of doing things, which makes people unable to see the truth clearly, but afterwards he has to admire him, Zheng Yi's psychology at this time, on the one hand, is very pleased, on the other hand, it is not very comfortable, such a contradictory psychology, so he can't help but think about it.

As soon as he came back to his senses, he laughed at himself a little in his heart, could it be that he was old, when did he still think so crankily, he really shouldn't be, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he put on this layer of skin, and he would never think about taking it off again for the rest of his life, he had to think about himself.

At this time, Zheng Wen was thinking carefully and did not notice Zheng Yi's small movements.

And what he was thinking about was not Chen Tuo, but he found that the Hebei region at this time, militarily, was in a vacuum, the former Hebei Jiedu envoy Lin Cang led 300,000 Hebei garrisons into Beijing, Zheng Wen left these troops in Yanjing City, as a supplement to the Yanjing garrison, Lin Cang was also sent to Jiangnan by himself to serve as the Jiangnan Jiedu envoy, and reorganized the Jiangnan garrison.

It shouldn't be, he was so busy that he almost forgot, he patted his head and shook his head, he had to determine the candidate as soon as possible, serve as the envoy of Hebei Jiedu, and make up for the garrison in Hebei.

Because at this time in the Hebei region, which is surrounded by Yanjing City on three sides, is the barrier of Yanjing City, and is also the first line of defense in Kyoto, no army can reach Yanjing City directly without crossing the Hebei region, and therefore, the emperors of the Great Qian Dynasty attached great importance to the Hebei region, not only set up the Hebei Jiedu Envoy Department, stationed 300,000 troops all year round, but also attached great importance to the militia system in Hebei, and the related military armament work was extremely important, almost in addition to Yanjing City, the first priority, It is a border pass in the leisure time, which is not as good as the Hebei region.

Although the court has been a little lax in recent years, but it is only a slight delay in military spending, and the cycle of replacement of relevant armaments has been somewhat extended, Zheng Wen himself knows that in this Hebei region, the court has never owed a penny of military salary to the low-level sergeants, and the emperors of previous dynasties do not know how many secret agents have been sent into the Hebei region to supervise and supervise officers at all levels, and the court has also sent important personnel into the Hebei region from time to time to inspect the relevant military work, so the Hebei region is also the most important source of the army.

Therefore, the envoys of the great cadres in the past dynasties, they are all the cronies of the emperor's cronies, and they are all people with outstanding military achievements, and at this time Zheng Wen has a little headache, he has been on the throne for a short time, and he wants to find a person who is loyal to him and has great military achievements, it is too difficult.

Li Wei, the general of the Yulin Army, is barely enough, if he adds his full support, it is enough to serve as the envoy of Hebei Jiedu, but he has to help himself keep an eye on his Yulin Army, which is the basis for his own reform of the Daqian army, that is the most important thing, Zheng Wen thought about it a little, and excluded him.

As for Jiang Kong, that's okay, it's just that the hundreds of thousands of troops in the capital must have a few of their absolute cronies to help him keep an eye on some.

But who will serve as the envoy of Hebei Jiedu, Zheng Wen was a little stumped for a while.

……

At this time, the Privy Council, the former privy envoy, the current cabinet minister, and the Duke of Liao, Wu Yong, was also talking about this matter with Li Cheng, the chief general of the Great Qianbei Army.

At this time, Wu Yong, dressed in black armor and with a red face, said to Li Cheng, who was sitting under him: "Li Cheng, do you have any thoughts about this vacant Hebei Jiedu envoy?" ”

Li Cheng sat on the chair, as soon as he heard this, his heart was happy, this Hebei Jiedu envoy, how could he not have an idea, but he knew that this position, that can only be appointed by His Majesty's absolute cronies, how could this old general say this today, he can also be regarded as a person of his department in this big cadre army, does this old general have any way to make himself the envoy of this Hebei Jiedu?

So, Li Cheng immediately asked, "Old general, how do you say this?" He spoke calmly.

Wu Yong saw that Li Cheng had such a performance, and he was still satisfied in his heart, so he continued: "Li Cheng, you are in this military, and you also understand that the military is divided into many factions, and you can be regarded as a person on my line, so you have to hurry up, after all, this good position, it is a radish and a pit, and finally within this half a month, it can be settled." ”

Li Cheng listened, but he was confused, so he asked suspiciously: "Old general, why can't I understand this?" ”

Wu Yong saw it, shook his head, and then said, "You, it's really an elm pimple, why don't you open your mind?" Let me ask you, what are the prerequisites for being the envoy of Hebei Jiedu? ”

Li Cheng listened, pondered for a while, and then said: "It's seniority, it's military exploits, and loyalty, the former Hebei Jiedu envoy Lin Cang, isn't that it?" ”

Wu Yong listened, but shook his head, nodded again, and said: "Yes, but it's not all right, you have to put your loyalty at the forefront, be loyal to Your Majesty, have qualifications, and have military merits, this is the prerequisite for serving as the envoy of Hebei Jiedu, otherwise you think that Lin Cang can serve as the envoy of Hebei Jiedu for more than ten years, and he has been free from the faction, and he has been living a chic and free life, and he has been entrusted with important tasks by His Majesty to serve as the envoy of Jiangnan Jiedu, that is because he has an absolute loyalty to the first emperor and His Majesty, and he will listen to whoever is His Majesty!" He said in a low voice.

"And now, Your Majesty is on the occasion of employing people, and the general of the Yulin Army has sent one out, and he has to stay in the capital for the rest, after all, there are hundreds of thousands of troops in the capital, do you understand?" Wu Yong said affirmatively.

As soon as Li Cheng heard this, he immediately understood, got up and saluted Wu Yong respectfully, and then said, "Thank you for the old general's order, the last general knows how to do it." ”

Wu Yong accepted this salute calmly, and then said: "Moreover, you have to hurry, soon, several local envoys will enter Beijing, I am afraid that there will be variables." ”

Li Cheng nodded at Wu Yong, and everything was silent.
