In the Tang Dynasty, it is not uncommon for the prince to serve as the governor of the capital or the state assassin history, Li Jie himself used to be the governor of the Wuyuan Governor's Mansion, and the Fujian observer, such as Li Jie's elder brother Li You, the king of Qi, is the assassin of Qizhou, and Li Ke, the king of Wu, is now the county guard of Wu, leading the huge Wu land.

But they all have a common characteristic, they are not heirs to the throne, and in addition to Li Jie, they are mostly civilians, and do not lead the army, Li You's army when he started was still hidden by Li Jie in the name of sailors, and Li Su only had one or two thousand Shu kings in his hands, until Concubine Yang and Gaozong Li Zhi completely fell out, Li Jie lent him 20,000 Indian soldiers.

Of course, Li Jie himself is an outlier, he happened to bump into Wuyuan, he was placed in the Turks by mistake, and later demoted to Fujian, the place was exhausted, and there was no army to protect him to find death, which allowed him to accumulate early capital and lay down such a world.

Li Rang's identity is too sensitive, he can be regarded as the abolished prince of Fujian, almost the same as Li Chengqian, and now the prince Li Jin is still in Beijing to supervise the country, at this time Li Jie wants to set up Li Rang as the protector of the capital of the river, and also holds the military power in the river.

Isn't this an obvious threat to the status of the crown prince? Could it be that King Min has changed his mind again and favored his eldest son again?

The prince is the important weapon of the country, and it is the target task of the next generation of ministers' allegiance, Li Jie's hand, immediately caused an uproar in the government and the opposition, some people are like mourning, some people are alive, for two or three days in a row, the people who admonished at the gate of the palace of Min and the people who visited the king of Xinhezhong County at the door have lined up in a long line.

In this effort, all kinds of rumors also spread in Jingshi, Bossis and some other important cities in Fujian, such as the prince Li Jin colluded with friends and wanted to plot a rebellion. For example, the king of Min ordered the prince to establish a prince, and abolished Li Jin for the people to wear it in a boiling manner.

At this time, the political methods and ruthlessness of Wu Meiniang in Tianzhu were suddenly revealed, and the police of the Beijing Division did their best, and captured as many as 100 merchants and officials who spread rumors in one day, and the next day they were beheaded by 46 people such as Lang Zhongtian Jia of the Ministry of Rites and the crime of shaking the country, and at the same time, Li Jin, the prince of the world, personally sacrificed to the Taimiao, and appeased the officials and people.

At this time, Wu Meiniang's recital had just been sent to Xinhangu, and it had not yet reached Li Jie's hands, and the decisiveness of the Iron Lady could be seen.

But after all, this matter is still too sensitive, with whom to fight with the military department Shangshu Li Ji, the general Hei Tooth Changzhi, the Feng Pavilion servant shot Laiji, Di Renjie and other more than a dozen important ministers of the Fujian State still gathered together, and entered the palace together to knock on the meeting, this lineup is all their own starting team, Li Jie is not easy to see, and in desperation, he had to set up a secret room in the temporary palace of Hengluo to summon the ministers.

The content of the meeting was unknown under the layers of guards, and even the historians could not record it, but after walking out of the palace, a group of important ministers had different faces, some excited, some dignified, and some pale.

In addition to exhorting the officials gathered in front of the palace of King Min to leave, the important ministers of these countries did not reveal a word, and in the end, only Wang Xuance was forced to be anxious, and only revealed a tone, King Min wanted to follow King Zhao Wuling!

King Zhao Wuling has done too many things, and for a while, the surrounding officials scattered in a hurry, and they went back to check the dictionary one after another, to find out what King Zhao Wuling had done that could correspond to the current situation in Fujian.

However, Li Jie persuaded the important ministers of the imperial court to canonize Li Rang as the protector of the capital of the river.

At the end of July of the sixth year of Longshuo, in the palace of King Min in Hengros City, at the court meeting, the sharp voice of Sporatita still echoed in the hall.

"The king of Fujian has a system, the king of Fujun Li let Yu Liang rush deep, the wind god is refreshed, Ren Jianwen and Wu, the reputation is noted, and he has made great contributions in the war of pacifying the Belus thieves. The court is especially anxious, the total camera machine, the hope is only allowed, from now on it will be ordered to form the Hezhong Army, and the rest will be the same! ”

"Thanksgiving!"

Wearing complex and heavy court clothes, Li Rang's thin body was tall and serious and kneeling in the center of the hall, looking at this scene, especially Xiao Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and his party shook their heads in disappointment, why is this King Min so confused, the bloodshed of his father's generation fighting for the throne, the cunning of his generation fighting for power, why hasn't the Li family's blood curse King Min seen enough of the imperial power struggle, and will it be passed on to the next generation?

I really don't know how many prime ministers and ministers were convinced? Even if you balance the prince Li Jin, you don't need to do this, right? In this way, after a hundred years of King Fujian, I am afraid that the country of Fujian will suffer another disaster of swords!

Thinking in his heart, looking at the official uniform seal held by the forbidden army on the side, he endured it, Xiao Sheng did not stand up and admonish again, before going to the court, Li Jie specially sent someone to warn him.

The head of the Ministry of Rites, the counselor did not speak, although the lower part was also opposed, but the big and small officials finally calmed down, and despite the criticism, Li Rang's official position was still decided.

As soon as the court ended, Li Rang, who was the new official, also immediately rushed to the north of the city surrounded by a group of officials from the metropolitan governor's office.

However, despite the establishment of a perfect ruling system, and the coercion and temptation of the Sogdians, Arlans and other Central Asian ethnic groups under the rule of the Governorate, the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate still lacks an institution equivalent to the soul of the Metropolitan Protectorate.

Not a single iron army was created.

When it comes to the Anxi Protectorate, the most famous is the Anxi Iron Army, and when it comes to the Anxi Protectorate, the Anxi Iron Army cannot be mentioned, just because of the existence of this army, the Tang Dynasty can take root in the four towns of Anxi in the turbulent times when the Western Regions are full of ethnic groups and complex people's feelings, and has successively broken through more than 20 small countries in the Western Regions such as Qiuzi, Shule, and Khotan, and even Li Zhi broke through the Western Turks, and this army also played a major role.

The number of Anxi troops is not large, but there are only 24,000 people, but they can stand tall among the layers of foreign races, spreading the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, and even making Li Jie have some scruples, which shows that they are elite.

Now Li Jie asked Li Rang to build such an iron army comparable to it.

Because of the initial establishment of the Hezhong Protectorate, in order not to stimulate the Sogdian countries, the Min State did not set up a special Hezhong Army at the beginning, but it did not mean that the Fujian State was unprepared for this, and when Li Rang arrived at the Chengbei School Field, there were already more than 10,000 soldiers waiting there.

Despite the scorching heat in the river in July, the sun was rolling and sweating like rain, and none of the more than 10,000 soldiers were moving around, and those who took refuge from the heat and quenched their thirst were all respectfully and obediently arranged in a phalanx, standing on the school field, and the sun shone directly at noon, like 10,000 iron pillars.

After the three-way drum, Li let himself also change into a heavy armor, flowing sweat appeared on the point platform, with the raising of the handsome flag, more than 10,000 soldiers immediately fell to the ground, and the neat sound entered the sky.

"Meet Daduhu! The army in the river is victorious! ”

As the Sima of the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate, who led the armies to kneel at the forefront, he commanded Zuo Wuwei to serve as a bait task a few days ago, and the disobedient Zuo Wuwei Zhonglang General Guo was sealed!
