"It's a pity, it's only one step away!" After saying goodbye to Lu Zhi and the others, Ye Zhao went straight back to the mansion, told Xi Zhicai what was happening day by day, shook his head and sighed: "The Son of Heaven is afraid, otherwise if the Son of Heaven can listen to me today, he will definitely be able to break the current pattern!" ”

"The Son of Heaven will naturally be afraid." Xi Zhicai shook his head and said with a smile: "Although the method used by the lord is a fierce medicine, but now the great man is like the body of the Son of Heaven, weak, and can no longer stand the fierceness of this fierce medicine. ”

Ye Zhao nodded when he heard this, he didn't think that those state pastors and taishou would obediently hand over their rights, and it was more likely that they would kill the officials who went to take up their posts in the name of bandits, of course, it was not that there was no solution, the imperial court could send strong troops to escort them, but in that case, it would really be a lose-lose, Liu Hong needed the imperial court to have enough deterrence, not to mention that he was still busy with the matter of recovering the military power, so it was naturally impossible to divide the troops, so the best choice at the moment was to appease the scholars, and then take back all the military power in Luoyang.

Then the states and counties will be pacified and the power of the world will be restored to the hands of the imperial court.

It's just this kind of thing, the family obviously won't sit idly by, if Liu Hong is healthy, it is good to say that he can live a few more years and wait until the two princes reach adulthood, but judging from the news obtained by Ye Zhao and Ye Zhao's observation of Liu Hong in the past few days, with Liu Hong's current physique, it is not easy to survive this year.

"I still want to congratulate my lord." Xi Zhicai smiled and smiled at Ye Zhao.

"What's the joy? Why can't I see it? Ye Zhao smiled bitterly: "I only know that this time, it is to offend the entire scholar class, and after the Wuzhou Prefecture Pastor and Taishou learn about this, I am afraid that they will hate me to the bone." ”

"But those people are hard to fight for." Xi Zhicai smiled.

"Brother Zhicai, do you know that sometimes this truth is very hurtful." Ye Zhao looked at Xi Zhicai and smiled.

"However, since the lord has already done it, he must have similar thoughts, once the content of this court meeting is heard, it is not only the scholars who know, as the lord said, those who have geniuses, but their virtues are slightly lost, and the hopeless people who have no career will probably regard the lord as the master, just wait for the time to come, why worry about no one available?"

"I'm glad you're a man." Ye Zhao joked: "If you are a woman and understand my mind so well, you may fall in love with you." ”

Xi Zhicai had a rare look of embarrassment, and Ye Zhao, who was watching it, couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't worry, I don't have that good male style, but I joke about it, but Brother Zhicai, you are a few years older than me, and your chest is all-encompassing, how can you linger in the land of fireworks all day long, if this Luoyang woman has someone who can enter the eyes of Brother Zhicai, even if it is a robbery, I will rob it for you, and I will always call ...... Fengyue place, after all, there is something wrong. ”

"Thank you, my lord, it's just that this body is ...... Don't delay people. Xi Zhicai smiled bitterly.

Ye Zhao looked at Xi Zhicai when he heard this, and said, "What about the medicine I gave you?" ”

"Medicine?" Xi Zhicai was stunned, and then remembered that at the beginning of Ye Zhao's coming to Luoyang, he summoned the medical craftsman to make a lot of pills for him, but Xi Zhicai ignored it.

"Okay!" Ye Zhao gave a thumbs up to Xi Zhicai, with a look of admiration: "Brother Zhicai really regards life and death as nothing!" ”

Those medicinal materials, not to mention how many people will be killed if they say the efficacy, the cost of collecting the medicinal materials alone is enough to make a wealthy family poor, and what others can't ask for, is directly treated as garbage here in Xi Zhicai......

"Dian Wei!" Ye Zhao shouted directly outside the door.

"Lord, what's the matter?" Dian Wei came to Ye Zhao's side and asked.

"In the past few days, Zilong can be by my side and give you the same important task." Ye Zhao looked at Dian Wei and said solemnly.

"My lord, please command." Dian Wei said solemnly.

"Call him to take medicine on time every day!" Ye Zhao pointed at Xi Zhicai and said in a deep voice.

"Uh......" Dian Wei glanced at Xi Zhicai blankly, nodded and promised: "Don't worry, lord!" ”

"Lord, can you change Zilong?" Xi Zhicai looked at Dian Wei in embarrassment and said, "The subordinates' hearts are not very good. ”

"Huh?" Dian Wei looked at Xi Zhicai blankly, puzzled.

"I'm not so good either." Ye Zhao patted the shoulder of Xi Zhicai, turned around and left, leaving Xi Zhicai and Dian Wei staring at each other.

……

The controversy about the court gradually spread, Ye Zhao naturally received a scolding, and some people even jointly went to the court to demand the removal of Ye Zhao from the post of guard, such an immoral person is not worthy of the position of Jiuqing.

These voices naturally can't move Ye Zhao, and now Ye Zhao has been regarded by Liu Hong as a confidant, how could Ye Zhao be dismissed because of some gossip, but the attention of the Luoyang scholars was quickly attracted by the matter of the new army.

After the court debated that day, it was less than half a month, and the bandits and bandits in various places who were still arrogant in July died down in mid-August, and the court restored order.

On August 16, Liu Hong went to the court again, and after discussing the general trend of the world with the courtiers, Liu Hong suddenly sighed: "Since the middle of the Ping years, the bandits in various places have never been cut off, first there was the Liangzhou Rebellion, and then the Jizhou Yellow Turban remnants, and then Yuyang Zhangju and Changsha District Xing rebelled one after another. ”

"Your Majesty will feel this way, most of it is caused by the emptiness of the army in Luoyang, and now all states and counties have soldiers and horses, but the imperial court still maintains the old soldiers and horses, which is naturally not as good as before." Zhang Rang, who was on the side, suddenly stood up and bowed down and said: "The slave maid thinks that Luoyang soldiers and horses should be increased, otherwise once there is a war and the imperial court troops are dispatched, won't Luoyang be empty?" ”

The hearts of the ministers are like mirrors, this is clearly a good word in advance, but no one dares to say it at this moment.

Liu Hong nodded and said: "What my father said is very reasonable, if there is turmoil today, it is because our Han army should be able to subdue the Quartet, I plan to form a new army in the West Garden, with Qian Shuo as the captain of the military academy, and the new army will be led by the general army, with eight schools, Qian Shuo will lead one school, and the other seven schools will ......."

Liu Hong looked at the hundred officials and said with a smile: "I don't know who you have to recommend?" ”

"Your Majesty!" Ye Zhao stood up, bowed down and said, "Feng Fang and Zhao Rong have been loyal ministers for generations, and they can be the captains of a school!" ”

This is the candidate that Ye Zhao and Liu Hong had planned before, Liu Hong smiled and nodded: "I have also heard of these two people, so I will use these two as the captains of the auxiliary army, and each will lead a school." ”

Ye Zhao returned to the train, and Lu Zhi on the side came out of the queue and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, although Gao Tanglong is from a humble background, he is quite talented and famous, and he is loyal to His Majesty. ”

Gao Tanglong, who was elected by Ye Zhao after consulting with Lu Zhi and Cai Yong, belonged to the imperial party, and also had some talents, although Ye Zhao of the new army did not interfere, but he did not want the scholars to grow stronger, so he was elected with Gao Tanglong.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Hong nodded and said, "In this way, I will order this person to be the captain of the right military academy." ”

In the court, Wang Yun frowned slightly when he heard this, there was no such person in the list they got before, I don't know why?

During this time, another minister recommended the doctor Xia Mu to be the captain of the left military academy, this Xia Mu is also the imperial party, only a moment of effort, four of the seven schools were obtained by the imperial party, plus the first school of Qianman, they can fight for, only three schools are left.

Wang Yun glanced at a person, and this person hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu, who had previously pacified the war in Jizhou, had both civil and military skills, and was later dismissed from his official position for no reason because of Wang Fen's involvement, and the minister thought that Yuan Shao could lead a school!" ”

Liu Hong nodded, this was a compromise made by the two sides before, and Yuan Shao's status among the eight schools could not be low, and he was named a lieutenant of the middle army, only below Qian Shuo.

There are still two school seats left, but because Gao Tanglong was pushed out by Ye Zhao, Lu Zhi and others, the originally planned seats are not enough, He Jin frowned, and took a step forward first: "Your Majesty, Bao Hong, the captain of the Tun Cavalry School, has been guarding Luoyang for many years, and he is also loyal to His Majesty, and now that the Tun Riding School has been taken over, the minister thinks that Bao Hong can enter the eighth school." ”

Even if Liu Hong wants to clean up He Jin again, it is impossible to directly eliminate He Jin's military power in Luoyang, which is to force He Jin to rebel, so among the eight schools, there must be a school in the General's Mansion, and this Bao Hong is the person He Jin pushed out.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Hong nodded and said, "Bao Hong is loyal and brave, I know it, so I let him be the captain of the military academy." ”

The upper, middle and lower three colonels have the largest share among the eight schools, and now Bao Hong has won the post of lieutenant of the lower military academy, which can be regarded as leaving a few points for He Jin to survive, so as not to make him jump off the wall in a hurry.

Wang Yun's face changed, so that this last school was very critical, and he immediately stepped forward and bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, after Chun Yu Qiong is a famous general, he also has bravery, loyalty and bravery, and the minister thinks that this person can take the position of a school." ”

"Chun Yuqiong?" Liu Hong raised his eyebrows, the last of the eight schools was ready for Cao Cao.

Ye Zhao stepped forward and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has also crossed paths with Nachun Yuqiong, this person has no ambitions, and his ability is average, he has the name of a famous general, but he is hidden by his ancestors, and his words are exaggerated, and the minister thinks that this person is not enough to take on the big responsibility!" ”

"Wei Wei's words are inevitably biased, Chun Yuqiong just offended Wei Wei at the banquet, and Wei Wei is so narrow-minded that he will judge people's futures." Wang Yun looked at Ye Zhao with an unkind face and said in a deep voice.

"This official will not bring personal grievances to the court to discuss." Ye Zhao glanced at Wang Yun lightly and said: "Forgive this official for being lonely and unheard, I don't know what kind of record this Chun Yuqiong has, but he can take on this heavy responsibility." ”

In addition to the famous generals after the fame, Chun Yuqiong really didn't have any good records, and Wang Yun couldn't speak for a while.

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao, the general of Diannong Zhonglang, has been quite meritorious since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and he was once the prime minister of Jinan, and the minister thinks that this person is more suitable to join the new army." Ye Zhao arched his hand at Liu Xie.

"I've heard of this person." Liu Hong nodded when he heard this: "I will appoint Cao Cao as the captain of the military academy, and order the generals to be transferred to the West Garden to reorganize the army. ”
