A few years ago, the Korean side rebelled, and Lin Feng purged many people, which caused the shortage of officials in Yan State to become more and more serious, and it was urgent to inject new blood.

In addition, at present, the system of the five divisions of Yan Guo is inefficient, and various departments overlap, and Yan Guo wants to grow and develop, which is not a long-term solution.

A long time ago, Lin Feng began to think about how to change this situation. Originally, it was planned that after the two imperial examinations, the court and even the state capital would have enough talents to make changes, but now it seems that the Wen Duan family can help him carry out it in advance.

How to change, he has a rough plan in mind, either to follow the example of the Tang Dynasty and establish a system of three provinces and six ministries, or to follow the example of the Ming Dynasty to establish a six-ministry system.

In addition, in the plan, once the officials of Duan Wen and the two families enter Beijing, they will not want to leave his sight, not that he wants to control these people, but that he will not let these people enter the state capitals, lest they take the opportunity to establish a foundation.

"Zhao Aiqing, you are in charge of the promotion of officials, and you are responsible for the two imperial examinations, I don't want you to engage in favoritism."

Hearing Lin Feng's words inexplicably, Zhao Shide was shocked, understood what Lin Feng meant, hurriedly leaned over to the ground, and said: "The emperor is clear, and the ministers will definitely strictly investigate, and there will be no fraud in the examination room." ”

Since ancient times, he has been a great minister, a popular man by the side of the Son of Heaven, and he has mastered the promotion of officials in Yan State, and the new officials have been favored by him, which inevitably makes Lin Feng worried.

"Well, Zhao Aiqing is doing something, don't worry, let's go back and rest early." Lin Feng waved his hand and motioned for Zhao Shide to leave.

Zhao Shide bowed and left, and Lin Feng sat alone on the stone chair, his thoughts becoming solemn.

The Duan clan and the Wen clan came so suddenly, completely disrupting his previous deployment. The plan was to enrich the country first, then strengthen the army, step by step, and then carry out reforms, but the pace was slower, but it was very steady.

Now that Duan Wen and the two families have sent a lot of money, the cost of military training is completely worry-free, but the reform has been advanced, and he seems to have the strength to compete for hegemony in an instant.

However, the real situation is definitely not like this, the current Yan ** team is still very weak, if the Yan country suddenly becomes rich, I am afraid that it will attract the eyes of many foreign enemies, and I am afraid that there will be a war at that time, which is the last thing he wants to see.

Now, I just hope that the war will come later and that he will have time to complete the change.

Lin Feng was optimistic by nature, and after thinking about it, he felt that he might be worried about the sky, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Looking up at the city tower, the five queens had disappeared without a trace, shaking their heads, Lin Feng got up and walked towards the palace.

Duan Chunqiu returned to the Duan Chamber of Commerce, but he didn't have time to go to the study, so he sent someone to find someone to be next to Miss Duan Er.

This woman, who was out on guard during the day, noticed the appearance of the blade warrior, realized that the young lady had caused trouble, and did not dare to stay for a long time, so she slipped away quietly while she was not paying attention. Otherwise, Duan Chunqiu would not be able to learn what happened to Miss Duan Er in a short period of time.

"Third Master!" The maid entered the study and saluted Duan Chunqiu.

"Excuse me, excuse me, Cui'er, what happened in the rouge store today, how did the second lady provoke Emperor Yan, is it something with Emperor Yan?"

Duan Mengrou is the pearl of the boss's palm, baby pimple, in the family, she also loves her very much, she is afraid of breaking it in the palm of her hand, and she is afraid of melting in her mouth, which simply spoils her.

I'm afraid that today's events are related to her high-flying and domineering character, and now that Fan is in the hands of Emperor Yan, no matter what, he must figure out the cause and effect and make a decision as soon as possible.

"Ah, Emperor Yan? Cui'er didn't know that Cui'er had never seen Emperor Yan today. ”

Duan Chunqiu explained impatiently and said, "It's the man who made a big deal with the second lady today!" ”

Cui'er was surprised for a while, her expression changed back and forth, and it took a long time to think of Duan Chunqiu's question, and she only promised: "The slave maid doesn't know, the second miss encountered in the rouge shop, but the second miss and Emperor Yan stayed in it for a long time.

When the slave maid rushed in, Emperor Yan had already left, but the second lady was disheveled, her eyes were dull, her face was ruddy, and she walked with a limp, as if she was injured.

The slave maid asked, and the second lady didn't pay attention to the slave maid, but angrily asked the slave and maid to gather the Xuanjia soldiers and search for His Majesty Emperor Yan throughout the process. For so many years, the slave maid has never seen the second lady give birth to such an atmosphere. ”

Listening to Cui'er's narration, Duan Chunqiu's face became more and more red, and suddenly, his fist slammed on the desk, and he said angrily: "Damn, this dog emperor dares to do shameless things to Rou'er!" ”

Duan Chunqiu wasn't sure if the matter was true, but he knew about the personnel and knew some common sense, and now that he heard Cui'er say this, he was almost sure that Lin Feng had damaged the second young lady's body.

-------------------------------------------

The next day, in the morning, Lin Feng told the ministers all about the cooperation between Duan Wen and Wen, and after discussion, Lin Feng asked the ministers to speed up the implementation of the decree, especially to prepare for the spring scientific expedition.

After the end of the early dynasty, Lin Feng deliberately left Ji Qiong, Yu Zheming, Wen Jishi and Situ, and the group went directly to the warm pavilion.

At present, Yu Zheming is responsible for Yan Guo's money, grain, taxes, etc., and Ji Qiong is his helper to share related matters. Master Wen Ji is still accompanying the Son of Heaven, and today, Lin Feng intends to recruit him to listen to his opinion.

Although Wen Jishi often doesn't say a word, but if he listens to it, he is clear and biased, and he is dark, and Wen Jishi's talent is not weaker than Situ, if he is willing to serve himself, it is like a tiger with wings.

Situ was promoted by Lin Feng to the deputy of the Military and Political Department, and his status was second to Lei Jieying, however, Situ focused on strategy, and Lin Feng valued him more.

Entering the warm pavilion, Lin Feng was not polite, sitting on the soft collapse, An Heng served tea, and asked: "Four Aiqing, do you have any objections to the cooperation between Duan Wen and the two families?" Situ, can you talk about it first? ”

Situ smiled, took a sip of tea, cleared his throat and said: "Early in the court, the minister probably guessed that the emperor was worried that the emperor was worried that if he relied too much on the gate valve, he would be controlled by the economic lifeline of the Yan Kingdom, and even the military and politics, and the two shadow forces of Duan Wen would be formed in the court?"

The minister thought that the emperor was worried a lot, as the minister said in the court, if any of Duan Wen's family cooperated with Yan Guo at the beginning, there would be no outsiders to check and balance, and it would definitely form a strength in the court.

But right now, the two families are cooperating with the Yan Kingdom and belong to two different families, so it will be difficult for the Duan and Wen families to twist into a rope in the court, on the contrary, two forces will be formed to contain each other.

In addition, the total number of Duan Wen and Wen families entering the court is twenty, less than half of the court, if the emperor is famous, the children of Duan Wen and the two families will not be able to make any big waves at all.

On the contrary, the entry of the children of Duan Wen and the two families into the DPRK not only made up for the lack of talents in the DPRK and China in a short period of time, but also added fresh blood to the Yan State and accepted the governing concept from Chu and Shu.

Another point, once the Duan Wen family each had 50 million taels of silver in the early stage, the emperor could take advantage of this opportunity to recruit new troops and expand the Yulin Guard and Dragoon Guard to 150,000 respectively.

Once there is a war, you can be stationed in Gyeongju to the south, and Huguan can be stationed in the east, and General Liu of the Black Flag Pass can be stationed in the east, and the three fortresses of the Yan State can be in his hands, and the Yan State can be protected without worry.

In short, the minister thought that if the emperor controlled the two families properly, the benefits of the whole thing would outweigh the disadvantages, and the comprehensive national strength of the Yan Kingdom would rise to a new level in a short period of time. ”

Lin Feng nodded while listening, and occasionally wrote down a sentence or two, what Situ said, he didn't think about it, although there are some aspects, there is no long-term thinking about Situ, but he can think about the pros and cons of things as a whole, otherwise he will not be arbitrary, and agree to cooperate with Duan Wen and the two families.

"Situ Yiyan, Daigo empowerment, so it seems that I am indeed thinking too much. Yu Aiqing, tell me, if you continue to recruit new recruits according to Situ's suggestion, can you support it financially? ”

Yu Zheming took out a stack of papers from his arms, this is his habit since he was in politics, and a good memory is better than a bad pen. After a simple flip, Yu Zheming is confident.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and Lord Ji have calculated, at present, the three armies of Yan State Dragoon Guard, Yulinwei, and Tiger and Leopard Guard, with a total of 180,000 people, including 120,000 Yulinwei, more than 30,000 Dragoons, and less than 30,000 Hubao Guard.

The new wine and salt, as well as the silver from the national treasury, can support the training of more than 100,000 new troops, and there are two Duan Wen hundreds of millions of silver, which are enough to support the training of 150,000 people in each of the three armies in the absence of war or natural disasters.

However, in a good situation, all the savings will be spent within two years, and if there is no money left, I am afraid that it will lead to a crisis. In addition, Duan Wen's hundreds of millions of silver must be repaid after all, so there must be surplus money in the treasury. ”

"Yes, in terms of money and grain, as Lord Yu said, I only hope that after the Luoma City is fully opened, it will bring huge profits, but the minister has listened to Lord Situ's suggestion that if the emperor seizes the two pieces of land in Fenzhou and Fengzhou of the Jin Kingdom, he will provide enough food every year, and he can save the silver for buying grain from the Song Kingdom, which is enough to support the troops of 150,000 people." Ji Qiong added.

"This matter is not trivial, the current main force of the Yan State is mostly a new army, and 60,000 are stationed in Gyeongju, and most of the Yulinwei in Huguan participated in the battle of the Rong people, but there are more than 20,000 recruits, and the Black Flag Pass is all recruits.

If you concentrate your advantages and fight a local war with the Jin State, you can still hold on, but if you start a full-scale war between the two countries in order to seize Fenzhou and Fengzhou, it will be worth the loss. ”

The Jin Kingdom will definitely fight, but it can't be rushed, Lin Feng thought in his heart. "By the way, recruiting new soldiers, the source of soldiers is also a problem, the Marquis of Dingguo recruited more than 100,000 people among the displaced people a few years ago, and recruited tens of thousands of prisoners, the cost is very low, and then, most of the recruits are children of good families, and the cost will increase."

"What the emperor said is true, the cost of recruiting new soldiers has indeed increased, and recently, the money mobilized by the Marquis of Dingguo in the Finance Department has doubled compared with before." Yu Zheming said.

After speaking, no one said anything, Lin Feng glanced at the four of them, and they were also a little difficult. His eyes were locked on Wen Jishi, and he said with a smile: "Ji Shi, you have been in the dynasty for a long time, do you really plan to spend your whole life and refuse to give me advice?" ”

"The minister is a vulgar person, and foul language cannot enter the holy ear, and he dare not say more." Wen Jishi's face was expressionless, when everyone discussed before, he was not half of his eyes, he looked numb, and his words and deeds were like a wooden man.
