"The new emperor ascends the throne, everything is auspicious. There are no major matters outside the customs and inside the customs. If the saint wants to read the chapter in person, the old slave will be... Just when Wei Zhongxian was about to use routine words as a temptation, he suddenly saw Xiao Xuan's somewhat disdainful and somewhat sharp gaze.

"Oh, look at the old slave's memory. Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, and the Ministry of Rites have drawn up four names for the new emperor for the first year of next year, namely "Qiansheng", "Xingfu", "Xianjia", and "Chongzhen".

At this time, Xiao Xuan was still silent for a moment: since he had crossed Chongzhen, his biggest advantage was the prophet of history. I don't know if I choose other era names, such as Xingfu, which I prefer, will everything be different. But that kind of variables will undoubtedly add to your own problems. After thinking about it, Xiao Xuan finally planned to respect the original owner of this possessed body, and said silently in his heart, From today onwards, I am Chongzhen, and Chongzhen is me. I don't know if you, the king of the dead country, can come back to life in my hands and prosper in the reconstruction: "The first one is too tall and I can't afford it." The second one seems to have some backlash implications, and it's not good. The third one also seems to be a little unlucky.,There's a sense of war.,Or choose the fourth.。。。 ”

"Your Majesty! But after a while, it's better to let the cabinet send the chapter to Zhu for approval... Wei Zhongxian said with a smile.

At this moment, Xiao Xuan's heart also adjusted and became transparent, and he once again stared solemnly at Wei Zhongxian's gaze with eyes that he hadn't seen since he crossed over. It's just that at this time, Wei Zhongxian didn't seem to have any intention of fighting with him, but after feeling his gaze at first, he lowered his head and smiled silently.

"Wei Zhongxian!" At this time, Chongzhen suddenly called his name and said solemnly.

Wei Zhongxian raised his head without showing weakness at this time, he still didn't expect the showdown to come so quickly. Fortunately, the new emperor is still in a hurry. If he uses his power and cronies to clean up the harem through normal channels, and then cooperates with those Donglin secret piles outside, he may be able to win. If you want to do it in this Qianqing Palace now, then you still have some chance of winning.

But at this time, Xiao Xuan did not engage in the cup as early as Wei Zhongxian expected, but said solemnly: "Do you know that my Daming is now in turmoil with internal and external troubles? If I continue to fight for my own selfish interests, the worst outcome for me will be to revisit the old land of the Five Kingdoms City and survive for several years. You are the result of being bought into the hearts and minds of people. The Manchurians don't want an old minister and eunuch like you."

Hearing this, Wei Zhongxian's heart relaxed a little: "Your Majesty, rest assured, although Dongyu is strong, it is too small compared to the core of the Jin Kingdom back then. Among the Eight Banners, there are only 100,000 people who are fully mobilized in battle, and there are only 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers who can fight. Moreover, in the past two years, it has been easy to fight in the field in front of firearms, but it is difficult to attack fortifications, and for a while and a half, they have not been able to shake the heavy troops at the border pass, and they have not dared to go south... ”

"So the safety of the world is completely pinned on the fact that the Manchurians will not cast heavy artillery by themselves, and they will not get any similar technology related to Hongyi cannons? Once they come up with a way to break through the village, the change of Jingkang will come? At this time, Chongzhen then said coldly.

"Your Majesty means... At this time, Wei Zhongxian finally felt that the new emperor had something to say. And most likely to ask for something.

Xiao Xuan no longer turned around, and said bluntly: "Open the skylight and say something bright: I know that many troops in the Beijing camp and even in the palace are unbearable, and I want to train a pro-army of my own." It is best to be about thirteen or fourteen years old for an unmarried family, and those who do not want to be purified can be in their early 500s. Food, salary, ordnance, do not want anyone to make things difficult. I don't want anyone to mix it with sand. When recruiting soldiers, I also personally selected them from at least 5,000 of their own age, and it was best not to enter the field of unemployed vagrants, flashy beggars, etc. I don't think it will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver. What do you think of this request? If you don't plan to cooperate seriously in this matter, but find some trouble and play some tricks. Even one place, that... Then I can only let some people in the harem who plan to be Lu Buwei or let those who are pregnant and attacking outside get out of the palace. At the same time, I did everything I could to get the people who blocked me out of class. Is this requirement successful, or not? If it succeeds, then you, Wei Zhongxian, can be regarded as my person for the time being. I can also take the four beauties you sent as concubines, if all goes well. Even if it's this posterior, it's not impossible to consider re-establishing. ”

Xiao Xuan was completely unsure that just by relying on his words and pretense, people like Wei Zhongxian would immediately do it without trouble, so he brought out some historical prophets and weapons of great destruction that he could use. I thought that in the face of such coercion and temptation, if Wei Zhongxian still pushed back or played haha, it would be too ignorant to lift.

At the beginning, Xiao Xuan also thought about organizing and training 5,000 people, because even if the soldiers were fine, even if it was like the rock battalion in "Stealing Ming", it would take at least a few thousand people to play a strategic role. However, after careful calculation, I am still worried that the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver needed for 5,000 decent soldiers and horses will move too many people's cheese, and if a few thousand soldiers are selected, tens of thousands of school-age soldiers will be found, and there may not be strict tens of thousands of school-age soldiers in the entire Beijing Division and its surroundings. Even if Wei Zhongxian agrees to this kind of big event, it will not be possible to do it properly in a month or two. It is obviously a more reasonable way to train a few hundred cronies to be a ten-member regiment or a backbone officer in the future. After all, the army is about organization and rank, and the soldiers of the same class and the same age who can get acquainted with each other are obviously much stronger than the hodgepodge of all ages.

At this time, Wei Zhongxian's heart was a little smiling. It's not to laugh at the new emperor's behavior of asking for military power, but this kind of practice is simply self-exalted, and it will offend many people in the palace, which is actually conducive to his influence in the palace and even coveting the military power in the palace. And what I need most now is time.

As for a young emperor who has never had the tradition of a family in the army, leading hundreds of new soldiers, at best, a few thousand new soldiers to train the army? Or in a palace with a lot of temptations? The army that comes out can be compared to the real ones who can fight. Wei Zhongxian, who once coveted military power, actually practiced in the palace, but later understood that many things were not as simple as taking for granted.

"Your Majesty! The old slave will do it, and it will definitely satisfy His Majesty! At this time, Wei Zhongxian replied with a simple smile.
