Zhang Yue and Zong Jingcheng had just arrived outside the Xuande Gate, and it happened that He Jiyun had already come out, escorted by several personal soldiers and were about to get into the carriage. Zhang Yue hurriedly shouted to stop him, and he was not polite to catch up, so he took the lead and got into the carriage first.

"Come down, come down! The official office in front of the palace is not in the outer city, where do you want to go when you get in the car? "He Jiyun didn't have a good airway.

"Didn't you just get in the car?" Zhang Yue asked strangely, his mind was turning, it turned out that he couldn't take a car in the forbidden.

"I'm done with my business, I'm going home, and I thought you went by yourself, so I have to go back again." He Jiyun stroked his forehead and was speechless.

"How do I know where the temple chief is? I don't know who the direct superior is, you are the door clear, who will lead if you don't lead the way? Zhang Yue said as a matter of course, and walked towards Xuande Gate when he got out of the car.

"Where are you going? Take this side to the left! He Jiyun turned around and left, crying and laughing with a smile on his face.

"! Why didn't you say it earlier! "Zhang Yue is almost fainting to death, last time I went to Xuande Gate, why not this time.

Zong Jingcheng was also at a loss, sneering and feeling extremely ashamed of his own officials' behavior.

"Hahaha! You can't do this, come up quickly, and I'll tell you about the situation of each yamen, as well as the rules for entering the imperial city. He Jiyun laughed.

"That's good! First of all, let's talk about the Chongyuan Hall in the morning, what is the content? "It's easy to be in Kyoto and want to pay attention to state affairs, Zhang Yue is a little curious.

"It's just a formality, the big thing has been decided first, and the edict is just issued. The first thing to talk about is the war in Hebei, and Zhang Tinghan, the assassin of Jizhou, was ordered to be dismissed; The second is the relocation of the outer domain, which is not ...... My father won a battle, worshiped the captain, hung the title, and was transferred to Shannan Dongdao Jiedu; The last thing I said was about the tribute armor, so I'll talk about it if you're interested. He Jiyun then explained.

On this day, an edict was issued concerning the first rites: The states shall not pay tribute if they are dismissed or make pilgrimages.

Because before that, each town, prefecture, and government had its own weapons workshop, and the weapons made were sent to Tokyo on a quarterly basis to pay tribute, and the state and county officials used this as a name to intercept money every year, which was called "armor money".

That's it, they still collect local products in the jurisdiction and make armor privately, of course, they still retain most of them and pay a little tribute, which undoubtedly increases the burden on the people. But some of the armor weapons that were intercepted, of course, were sold for money, to whom? Naturally, the highest price is obtained, which has caused hidden dangers in the local area.

Therefore, the edict stopped paying tribute, and asked the magistrate to select craftsmen from all over the country and fill them in Tokyo as prisoners for use. This move can be described as a trick to draw salaries from the bottom, and it is extremely clever, which not only weakens the local armed forces, but also rectifies the rule of officials.

"With this edict, I'm afraid that many magistrates are going to touch their heads!" He Jiyun smiled gloatingly.

"Maybe, but we're still down to business!"

The three of them talked all the way, and unconsciously arrived at the Privy Council, led by He Jiyun, Zhang Yue and Zong Jingcheng together to receive the official appointment documents, and registered for the record, and finally went to the right door to the front of the forbidden hall.

Since the conquest of Murong Yanchao in May, the country has gradually stabilized, and the system of the front division of the palace has become more and more perfect, with the inner hall straight, the royal horse straight, the small bottom army escort class, the crane control, the iron horse, and then the scattered marquis, the scattered members, the scattered capital head, and the scattered command, the number is still very messy.

The military strength is about 50,000 people, which is still weak compared to the 100,000 troops of the four compartments of the Guards Division, but it can be regarded as a preliminary achievement of the purpose of balancing the Guards Division.

The current commander of the palace is Guo Wei's grandson Li Chongjin. He Jiyun had just asked this person to go through the procedures for direct entry into the inner temple, so he was still there.

Step up the steps, the extraordinary archway door is hung with the plaque with the words "the former secretary of the Great Zhou Palace", Zhang Yue can't help but look at it a few more times, enter the door is a large courtyard, the left and right wings and side courtyards are utility rooms, as well as the offices of the subordinate officials.

Passed the instrument door again to the lobby, also called the festival hall, go to the side of the corridor through a side door to enter, in front of the front is a courtyard again, the main hall is the signing room of the chief official in front of the palace.

"Yo! Why did He Yanei come back again? This is ......" A tall young general with an elegant face came out of the main hall, and when he saw He Jiyun bringing another person, he couldn't help but ask.

"Zhang Yuma, this is Zhang Yuanzhen, who I greeted you just now, and the words are newly given by Your Majesty!" He Jiyun blinked and smiled.

"Yes! That's what it is...... The Zhang Yue of the Liao general Gao Mohan? The general responded, and was very surprised to see Zhang Yue so young.

"Brother Yuanzhen! Let me introduce to you, this is Zhang Baoyi, the Marquis of Yu, the former capital of the palace, who married His Majesty's fourth daughter, Princess Shou'an, and the captain of the horse, and the training envoy of the Lingenzhou regiment, but your direct superior, you have to be so good! He Jiyun laughed ridiculously.

"It turned out to be Zhang ...... Bridegroom! The end will be polite! Zhang Yue hurriedly stepped forward and saluted with his fists, knowing in his heart that this should be Zhang Yongde, who looked only in his twenties, and he was also very young.

"No need to be polite, in the future, you can come to me if you have something, you are here to go through the procedures for entering the camp, Li Chongjin is still ......" Zhang Yongde said politely, seeing that He Jiyun was there, he went by himself.

Two subordinate officials stood in front of the table to hand over the paperwork, reporting the consumption of grain, grass and armor, and opposite sat a young general in his twenties, wearing a soft-footed hat and a dark crimson embroidered flower robe, but he looked absent-minded, obviously not interested in dealing with these trivial matters.

Suddenly, He Jiyun brought two people in, lingering at the door and not stepping forward, but said impatiently: "Okay, okay...... If the inventory is insufficient, I will find the military department to collect it, write a note and bring it to me to use the seal. ”

The two subordinates answered, looked at each other with a wry smile, and had no choice but to put away the paperwork and turn around and go out.

"What's the matter?" After sending away the subordinates, Li Chongjin asked, it seemed that he wanted to clean up and leave, and his tone was a little unpolite.

"As I said before, our palace front division has another scattered command establishment, and there are Lao Li envoys!" He Jiyun stepped forward to salute and explained the situation, he is the direct knowledge of the inner temple, although he is a guard in the prison, he is also a subordinate, and this position was Li Chongjin before. The two don't seem to have much friendship, and their attitudes are very cold.

"The new commander Zhang Yue, I have seen Li Duan!" When Zhang Yue heard this, he immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Deputy Commander Zong Jingcheng, I've seen Envoy Li!" Zong Jingcheng followed to see the salute,

"Excuse me! Did the subordinate roster bring? Wait a minute, I'll write an essay ......"

Li Chongjin didn't seem to be interested in the two of them, and he didn't know if there was something urgent, or if he was already vigorous and resolute, so he wrote it quickly, put down the pen and got up and said: "Divide the barracks, grain and grass clothes, banners, letters, weapons and armor can be handled by subordinates, let them take you there after they are done, there is something in a certain family, go first!" ”

Then they ran back and forth, but fortunately, they were only in the front of the palace, and they completed this formality, and then they had to go to the camp. After leaving the front office of the palace, He Jiyun went home first. Zhang Yue and Zong Jingcheng were about to go to the barracks with the little official who led the way, when the little eunuch from the Yellow Gate came running yesterday.

"Commander Zhang! Your Majesty wants to see you, come with me! Xiao Huangmen said sweatingly.

"Didn't you see you yesterday? Why are you summoned again? Zhang Yue wondered in his heart, and the words came out.

"People want to be forbidden every day, what a good thing this is, go quickly...... Your Majesty has an errand for you! Xiao Huangmen pursed his lips and was speechless.

I remember that yesterday He Fujin said that he was not lucky to be idle, is that what he refers to? Zhang Yue suddenly knew in his heart, the old guy already knew, but he didn't say it, but ...... Evil!
