The Yang family's high-ranking lords have been one of the top wealthy families of the country for hundreds of years, and those who can be invited to enter the main hall of the Yang Mansion are extremely noble. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Among these people are the princes of the Holy Heavens today. Although the Li family and the Yang family have a deep hatred, the Li royal family is the co-ruler of the world, and the Yang family is still an official in the country.

There are also three prime ministers from the cabinet, and when the previous dynasty was in power, there was only one prime minister in the imperial court at that time, and the prime minister at that time was in power and opposition, and he could almost compete with the imperial power.

After Taizu Li Yunlong settled the world, because he felt that the power of the prime minister was too heavy, he thinned the authority of the emperor, so in addition to the beginning of the founding of the country because of the unstable social situation had to appoint the prime minister to stabilize the situation, since the world was stable, Taizu abolished the post of prime minister, changed the cabinet, changed the one-phase system to a multi-phase system, and greatly enhanced the imperial power.

The reason why the other two Xiangye did not arrive was because they were diehard loyalists of the Li royal family, and they had already formed a deep hatred with the Yang family because they attacked each other in the government and the opposition on weekdays, and there were many children who died under each other's calculations. If it weren't for the Li family's support for them, the Yang family would have already ruined their family, and they would naturally not be bored.

Among the remaining six Shangshu and Shilang, anyone who has no grudge against the Yang family is here today.

However, it is not them who are most favored by the Yang Mansion and are really accompanied by the most important figures of the Yang Mansion, but the military generals and aristocratic group.

In the previous dynasty, there was a civilian group that controlled the government, and they deceived the king at the top and oppressed the common people from below, and that's it, after all, if the martial arts were in power, they would also do these bad things.

But the most intolerable thing is that the civilian clique is still not satisfied after taking control of the government, and they even extend their black hand to the army.

The previous dynasty was not right, but the ancestor who was the old man usurped the position of his son-in-law, he had a heavy army in his hands, and he was added to the yellow robe by his subordinates in the process of leading the troops back to the dynasty after a victory, so he was particularly jealous of the noble generals after winning the country.

It was under the acquiescence of Taizu Taizong that the civilian clique began to manipulate the army, they often withheld the army's salaries, and arranged civilian officials in the army to supervise the army, and pointed fingers at the army in battles, so that the former dynasty repeatedly failed in foreign wars, and even persecuted many promising generals in the army, resulting in the repeated decline of the status of the generals, and finally they could only become vassals of the civilian clique.

In the hundreds of years of the previous dynasty, the barbarians outside the Central Plains have always pressed the central dynasty to the point where they could not lift their heads, and the former dynasty was forced to cede land, pay compensation, call vassals, make peace with relatives, and pay tribute, suffered humiliation, and finally had no way to retreat, and the country perished.

In view of this, after Taizu Li Yunlong set the world, in front of the civil and military officials, he took the stone as a proof, and wrote "not to be a minister, not to pay tribute, not to cut land, not to pay compensation, not to make peace, but the emperor of later generations but there are violators, for my Li family is not a descendant."

Since the founding of Taizu, although there are six great families in the country entrenched for thousands of years, and their tentacles extend to all walks of life, which is not conducive to the promulgation of court decrees, but barbarians have been raging for many years, even if the six great families survive, they are also greatly damaged, for their own interests, they also hope to maintain a peaceful situation in the country to cultivate vitality. The reason why Taizu was able to sweep the world in such a short period of time also had a lot to do with their support.

The real calamity of the dynasty is still the surrounding barbarians.

Although the Mengyuan people, who have been entrenched in the Central Plains for more than 100 years, are invincible under the sweep of Taizu and can only retreat to the northern grasslands, their strength still exists, and each generation of these nomads can appear as outstanding figures in the realm of great grandmasters. So that although the dynasty could easily beat them at its peak, it only dared to constantly weaken them, and could not really force them to the state of extinction. This is to prevent the great masters and masters on the prairie from jumping over the wall in a hurry to assassinate and disturb the Central Plains under the ruin of the country and the destruction of the family.

Although the dynasty also has masters of the realm of the Great Grandmaster, and they are not afraid of their assassination of the emperor, but all kinds of officials and generals in the counties and counties of the world will not escape the killing opportunity of the Great Grandmaster at all unless they are protected by thousands of troops and horses and never go out.

But the dynasty did not have so many troops to protect these officials, and only the governors at the state level were eligible for such treatment. The protection of these people does little in the bigger picture.

A great grandmaster's determination to assassinate was enough to paralyze the central court.

Although the nomads on the steppe no longer regard themselves as a state in order to avoid too much stimulation of the Great Chu Dynasty, and each generation of Great Khan also paid tribute to the Chu State, every year the grassland people would enter the country and carry out the so-called "grass valley" operation to rob women and property.

They are like hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff, and always put great pressure on the Central Plains. In the case that the Central Plains Dynasty could not exterminate it, it could only deploy heavy troops on the border to prevent it.

It is under these circumstances that since Taizu and below, although there are many suspicions and wariness of the noble generals who lead the troops, the status of the military generals group has never been reduced since the founding of the country.

In recent decades, as more and more land has been annexed by the aristocracy and the scholarly class, the life of the common people has become more and more difficult, coupled with the accumulation of evils in the national dynasty, all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes have emerged in an endless stream, many civilians have been forced to sell their children and daughters by natural and man-made disasters, and have been displaced in other places, and in some places there have even been small-scale peasant uprisings, and the world has shown a situation of great chaos.

Therefore, the status of the generals has risen instead of falling, and in the face of the troubled times that can be predicted, many family members have increased their investment in their own military lineage, and spared no effort to win over the leading generals.

The military system of the Chu State is divided into forbidden army, government army, and border army.

The so-called border army, as the name suggests, is to guard the frontier, and some of the generals are held by nobles with titles, and some are not titled, which can be regarded as rising stars in the army. The responsibilities of these people are that it is impossible for them to come to the Yang Mansion today.

The government army is a local army, responsible for guarding the place, and the dynasty has a total of 16 guards, of which four guards are responsible for defending Gyeonggi, and the leading generals of these four guards have arrived today.

With the government army and the border army, the state of Chu can actually defend the world and resist foreign humiliation. It's just that today, the strength of the family valve is strong, two hundred years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, after the infiltration of the family of the gate valve family spared no effort, today it can be said that the royal family Li family and the family gate valve co-governance, the border army and the government army have also been infiltrated, the Li family is naturally very protective of other families, and the forbidden army is set up for this.

The emperor selected the children of good families in the Gyeonggi region to enlist in the army, trained with the best officers, provided the best food and weapons, and gave them generous salaries.

They are the Shenwu Legion and the Shence Legion, two of the four main legions of the dynasty.

The leaders of these two legions are loyal to the Li dynasty, but they have no personal enmity with the Yang family, and they have also come today.
