Chapter 1034: Jang Hyun is the matchmaker

Li Yuanji sensed his father's joy, and he was secretly proud in his heart, this was an opportunity, and he must seize this opportunity to make himself more profitable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Enlighten my father, and my sons have something to report."

"What else, you say!"

"There is also about the prison army, Erchen has some ideas."

The prison army involves the army, which is an extremely sensitive topic, and under normal circumstances, Li Yuan is reluctant to mention this topic, but today he is in a good mood, and his son is doing things effectively, which makes him deeply gratified, and his scale today is relaxed.

"Say it! I listened. ”

Li Yuanji was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Erchen is also a person who leads the army, he knows the importance of the prison army, and he also knows the loopholes of the prison army, such as Duan Decao's betrayal, and my father also sent the prison army to go, but he still couldn't stop it, so what's the problem?" Erchen felt that the problem was that the prison army did not have a system, and did not report the situation in peacetime, and only reported the situation when the person who was monitoring was about to betray, but it was too late by then, and the prison army was likely to be the first to be killed, so a strict reporting system for the supervision of the army should be established, and the usual small details should also be reported, so that the general could be transferred back or dismissed in time when there were signs of betrayal, so as to really play the role of the prison army. ”

Li Yuanji's words are planned by a master behind him, and every sentence hits Li Yuan's key point, Li Yuan himself is an extremely suspicious person, he doesn't believe in outsiders, most of the military power is handed over to his brothers and nephews, only when fighting, he can send outsiders to lead the troops, but the prison army must not be less, but even if there is a prison Li Yuan is not at ease, just like Duan Decao, he sent Yu Shi Cheng Duo as the supervisor, but Duan Decao still surrendered Zhang Xuan, indicating that the supervisor does have loopholes, and the loophole is in the system that his son said, and the key is to prevent the slightest.

Of course, Li Yuan also understands what his son means, his son wants to take over the supervision of the army, and realize the unification of the three powers of court officials, the army and foreign intelligence, which is actually not impossible, the eldest son is in charge, the second son is in charge of the World Democratic Army, and the third son Xuanba is responsible for the security of the palace, so the fourth son Yuanji is in charge of supervision, and that is also right, this is what Zhang Qiu Taiyi said about the four dragons to support the tripod.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan said slowly: "That's it!" The emperor writes a detailed system of supervising the army, and if I am satisfied, then I will hand over the power of supervising the army to you. ”

Li Yuanji was overjoyed, kowtowed, and said, "The son will definitely not let his father down." ”

........

Li Yuanji left, and at this time, Yuan Shoucheng walked in with a smile, "Weichen feels Your Majesty's joy, congratulations!" ”

Li Yuan admired Yuan Shoucheng's uncertain prophet so much, he also smiled and said, "Sir should have seen my fourth son just now, what does Sir decide on him?" ”

"Your Majesty's sons are all pillars of talent!"

Li Yuan pondered and said: "To tell the truth, the eldest son Jiancheng and the second son Shimin know their talents, the third son Xuanba is superb in martial arts, bravely crowns the three armies, and also makes me quite honorable, but the fourth son Yuanji has always made me uneasy, he guarded Taiyuan, I almost lost the entire state, let him exterminate Song Jingang, but he was wiped out by the whole army, which made me extremely passive, and sometimes he really disappointed me." ”

Yuan Shoucheng smiled slightly: "The ancient dragon has nine sons, but the nine sons are all different, the eldest son is a prisoner Niu likes music and stands at the head of the piano; The second son, Jair, is thirsty for killing and fighting, and is engraved in the knife ring; The three sons mocked the wind and looked far away, so they were erected in the corner of the palace; The four sons of Pu Lao are good at roaring, so they are engraved in the big bell; The five sons are stubborn, like smoke and sit well, so they are engraved in the incense burner, and then swallow smoke and spit smoke; The six sons are good at carrying heavy burdens, so they are turtles under the monument; As for the seven sons, the eight sons, and the nine sons all have their own roles, Your Majesty is the dragon, and the four dragons should each have their own strengths, so they can all be sent to lead troops to fight, and Your Majesty will use them to promote their strengths and avoid their weaknesses. ”

Li Yuan woke up like a dream, and he gave a deep salute and said: "What Mr. said, Jin Yu's words are also!" ”

.........

The spring break of the Northern Sui court begins on the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, ends on the fifth day of the first lunar month, and officially goes to court on the sixth day of the first lunar month, but on the morning of the first lunar month, a New Year's pilgrimage meeting will be held, and all civil officials above the ninth rank and military generals above the seventh rank in Beijing must participate, presided over by the empress dowager, and then the regent will lead the civil and military officials to perform the New Year's sacrifice, followed by the New Year's feast, the court meeting, the sacrifice day, the feast and other things can end in one morning, and everyone can enjoy the five-day New Year's holiday after the noon banquet is dispersed.

However, the officials of the Northern Sui Dynasty have a duty system in the New Year, and there must be someone on duty in each temple every day, and everyone takes turns to sit in the court room for a day to prevent any urgent matters temporarily, even Xiangguo is no exception.

For Zhang Xuan, the New Year is also a busy day, he has to go to the army to congratulate the soldiers on the New Year, visit and comfort the families of the fallen soldiers, and visit some senior ministers, such as Pei Ju, Su Wei and others.

However, last year he was preparing for war in Youzhou, the year before last in Danyang County, and the year before last in Goguryeo, spending three consecutive New Years in the war, and this year he finally stayed in Zhongdu for five days, although every day was very busy, but it also made his family satisfied.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Xuan came to a large mansion near Fuxian Bridge early in the morning, which covers an area of about ten acres and is surrounded by shady trees, which is very quiet.

This mansion is the residence of the former Liang Dynasty emperor Xiao Miao, Zhang Xuan used Lou Fu County to exchange Xiao Miao's father and daughter back, and named him the Duke of Baling County, living in the central capital.

Many people think that Zhang Xuan saved Xiao Miao's life because he was sorry, of course, there are some factors in this regard, but more importantly, it is for the long-term peace and stability of Jingzhou.

Just like Nan Chen, Yang Jian destroyed Nan Chen, and did not kill the queen Chen Shubao, but named him a general, raised him in Luoyang and sent people to monitor, as long as Chen Shubao is still alive, the people of Jiangnan can not use Chen Shubao as an excuse to rebel, during the Three Kingdoms, the kings of Shu and Wu are the same, keep them, no one will raise the banner of reviving Shu and Wu to rebel.

Xiao Mo and his daughter Xiao Yuexian live in this mansion, there are special servants to serve them, and there are guards to protect their safety, this is the second time that Zhang Xuan has come to visit their father and daughter after returning from Hetao.

In the lobby, Xiao Mill and Zhang Xuan sat down separately, Xiao Mill was wearing a Confucian robe and a flat scarf, looking like a white-faced scholar, no one would have thought that this person had ascended the throne as the emperor and controlled thousands of miles of territory.

At this time, Xiao Yuexian served them tea and slowly retreated, Xiao Yuexian looked like a flower, beautiful and dignified, only twenty years old, her husband was the son of Lei Meng, who unfortunately died when Jiangling fell, so that she was widowed without children.

Xiao Mo looked at his daughter's back and sighed: "Your Highness is dissatisfied, my greatest wish is to find another wishful husband for Yuexian, she is only twenty years old, and she can't just live in widowhood for a lifetime." ”

Zhang Xuan smiled: "Then I don't know what Brother Xiao has for his new son-in-law?" ”

Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "Her previous husband was appointed by me in order to win over the general, she didn't like it, and the relationship between husband and wife was not very good, I have always felt guilty about this, so this time I hope to find a man she likes as her husband." ”

"Then I don't know what Miss Yuexian wants, I'll go back and let the princess be a matchmaker."

"She is very fond of literature and calligraphy, so she has always wanted to find a confidant to be a husband, but unfortunately she married a rude martial artist before, which made her depressed all the time."

Zhang Xuan suddenly thought of someone and said with a smile: "How is Chu Suiliang, the champion of the year before last?" ”

"This ..... Of course it's good, I'm afraid that Chu Gongzi is not very willing. ”

"Chu also had a wife before joining the army, was the daughter of Yu Shinan, the unfortunate childbirth in August last year, the mother and son were not able to keep, his father wrote a letter to persuade him to marry again, Yu Shinan also persuaded him to marry another bride, the Chu family is a famous family in Yuhang, the Xiao family is a Jinling nobleman, just the right door, Brother Xiao asked Ling Ai, if she wants, then I personally wrote to Chu Liang to propose marriage."

Of course, Xiao Mo knew his daughter's thoughts, and Yuexian was willing, but he still wanted to ask for his daughter's opinion, so Xiao Mo nodded happily and said: "Thank you Your Highness for your love for the little girl, I will give Your Highness a clear answer tomorrow." ”

.........

At night, Zhang Xuan told his wife Lu Qing about his matchmaking for Xiao Yuexian.

Lu Qing shook his head and smiled: "Being a matchmaker is not like Fujun, you are messing up the mandarin duck spectrum, if not, it will make the Moon Fairy Girl happy." ”

"Why?" Jaung Hyun asked puzzled.

"The husband has to ask the man first, although the Yuexian girl is innocent, but her father is not an ordinary person, does the husband think Chu Gongzi will be willing?"

Zhang Xuan groaned slightly, and also felt that he was a little reckless, Xiao Mo was the king of the dead country, Xiao Yuexian was the princess of the dead country, and ordinary people were really unwilling to marry them, and they actually forgot about this stubble.

"What did the lady say I should do? Tomorrow, it is estimated that Xiao Mo will send someone to send a letter to express his consent, and this matter is a bit troublesome. ”

Lu Qing thought for a while and said: "Xiao Mo is the nephew of the Queen Mother, Yuexian is the granddaughter of the Queen Mother, and she is also a relative, the husband can ask the Queen Mother to propose to the Chu family, maybe there is a glimmer of hope, and find an opportunity for the two to meet and talk, as long as they are willing, and the Queen Mother is proposing, I think there is seventy percent hope." ”

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, but he really didn't want to see Xiao Hou, so he put his arms around his wife's shoulders and said with a smile: "Then the Queen Mother will be handed over to Madame, I will let Xiao Xiangguo arrange the meeting between the two, this is the first thing I do in the New Year, it is best to succeed!" ”

Lu Qing shook his head secretly, his husband has always been clever in major matters, but he has done nothing in this matter, how could he think of it by letting Chu Suiliang marry the princess of the dead country? (To be continued.) )
