In the nineteenth year of the emperor's reign, on April 16, Yang Yong issued an edict ordering the crown prince Yang Lin to supervise the regent of the country, and at the same time gave the prince the military rights that only the emperor could have.

Daming Palace, located in the west of Taiyuan Sanlian City, is in the south of the three cities of Xicheng. It is built by Emperor Wenxuan of the Northern Qi Dynasty on the site of the ancient city of Jinyang for thousands of years a few decades ago, and later expanded into a city, called Daming City, the city is four zhang high, and it is four miles back in the week. Now, this Daming City has become the core of the entire northern part of the Great Sui, and it is the East Palace where Yang Lin, the regent of the Prison State, is resting. Compared with the Jinyang Palace where Emperor Yang Yong lived, in fact, the Daming Palace was significantly lower.

Jinyang Palace is the palace of the Northern Qi Dynasty Gaojia to place the puppet emperor Xiaojing Emperor Yuan Shanjian of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, in the north of Daming City, and was renamed Xincheng after the establishment of the Sui Dynasty because it was a city. Later, after expansion, the new city is four zhang high, seven miles back in the week, much larger than the Daming Palace in the south of it. And in the west of Jinyang Palace, there is a new city connected, called Cangcheng, the city is larger, the city is four zhang high, but the week is back to eight miles.

The Daming Palace where Yi Feng lives is actually the smallest of the three cities in the west of Taiyuan Sanlian City, but Yi ≈ Feng doesn't care about this, and the larger Jinyang Palace is left to Yang Yong.

After becoming the regent of the prison state, Yi Feng was not in a hurry to immediately lead his troops south.

Although Gao Gong and other hundred officials all requested to immediately go south to attack Guanzhong and crusade against Yang Xiu. However, for Yi Feng, a good meal is not afraid of being late. Before going south, he still needs to sort out the current Taiyuan court. The so-called sharpening of knives does not require cutting wood. After entering Taiyuan and supervising the regent. He suddenly merged the three or four hundred thousand troops of the Taiyuan Imperial Court, as well as Hedong, Henan, and half of Hebei. Now his command is really vast and full of soldiers, with Hebei, Hedong and Henan, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. This kind of strength is definitely not a problem to attack Guanzhong. But Yi Feng was not in a hurry to go south to Guanzhong, and now he needs to practice his internal skills.

Yi Feng took Jinyang Palace as the palace and Yang Yong's palace room. Take Daming Palace as the east palace and make your own prince's mansion. Cangcheng was even more imperial city. The yamen of the Taiyuan Imperial Court are located in this place. In addition, Huaihuang soldiers and horses were stationed in Xicheng, and Yang Lin gave the mansions of hundreds of officials to the east of the Fen River, and officials no longer lived in the west city.

The Huaihuang armies basically occupied Taiyuan and the surrounding important places, and served as the heavy responsibility of garrison.

Huangfu saliva is ruddy, in a very good mood, he has been in Taiyuan City for nearly three years, originally followed Yang Liang, a mud that could not support the wall at all, and then followed the original grandson and now the prince. Although His Highness has his own opinions on many things, at least his own advice has indeed been seriously considered by His Highness, and even if he does not adopt it, then he can propose a relatively better one. At the very least, you can agree with different opinions. Although now the crown prince conspired with Gao Gong and others to put the emperor Yang Yong under house arrest, this is not in line with etiquette in his opinion. But after a slight sigh in my heart, I still acquiesced. After all. In his opinion, Yang Yong is just another Yang Liang. Now the kings rebelled and stood on their own. If Yang Yong is in charge of state affairs, I don't know what the chaos will be like in this world. The saint of troubled times came out, maybe the prince's decisive ascension to the throne was made by the mandate of heaven.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has ordered His Highness to be the regent and supervise the country, control the soldiers and horses in the world, and be fully responsible for the rebellion and rebellion. The minister thought that His Royal Highness should lead the army south as soon as possible, clear the rebellion, recapture the Beijing division, and return the hundred officials to the court. ”

Yi Feng raised his eyes and glanced at Huangfu Lian, and then looked at Shang Shuling Gao Gong on the side, and asked, "Gao Xiang, what do you think?" ”

Gao Gong purple robe and jade belt, Liang Guan Yu Wat, sitting on the couch specially given to him by Yi Feng, half-closed eyes seemed to be napping. But Yi Feng knew very well that this old man was by no means napping, and his current appearance was just trying to show Yi Feng that he was low-key. Although before this, Gao Gong took the initiative to welcome him into the court, but Yi Feng did not think that this old man had completely surrendered to him. betrayed Yang Yong, but he changed ships in time. This kind of vision, that kind of decisiveness, made him admire. But this does not mean that the old man is really completely subservient to him. He has been in charge of the government for nearly 20 years, and now in the Taiyuan court, he is holding such an important position as Shang Shuling, and in the nineteen years of the Yang Jian Dynasty, Shang Shuling has not really been awarded to anyone. In today's Taiyuan court, Gao Gong's power cannot be underestimated, and a number of civil and military generals such as He Ruobi, Han Seng Shou, etc., are still closely united around him.

Back to His Royal Highness, the old minister thought that what the emperor said was very true, and the imperial court should send troops south as soon as possible to recover Guanzhong and quell the rebellion. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Hedong were originally part of the Northern Expedition, and their families were in Guanlong, but now Yang Xiu is in chaos, and the soldiers are trapped in thieves, and the soldiers are worried and hope to return to their hometowns as soon as possible. Gao Gong replied.

Yi Feng nodded, but did not reply directly.

After the court meeting, Yi Feng convened the high-level deliberations of the Huaihuang Army in the inner hall.

Liu Wenjing was the first to speak, he had already seen that Yi Feng didn't want to go south immediately during the court meeting, and immediately asked, "Your Highness doesn't want to go south immediately to march south to Guanzhong?" ”

"Well, I don't think it's a priority to go south right now."

"Then why does Your Highness think it is a top priority?"

"Integrate all the armies, truly control Hebei, Hedong, Henan, internal stability, and then you can ask for foreign enemies."

"Your Highness is planning to go outside and be at home first!" Liu Wenjing immediately understood Yi Feng's plan. "I wonder what His Highness's specific plans are?"

Yi Feng smiled at Liu Wenjing and said, "I should ask you what to say, I will point out the direction, everyone will discuss whether it is feasible, and then discuss a specific method, but don't ask me everything." ”

Liu Wenjing chuckled, "If you want to settle down first, then the first person to deal with is Gao Gong, and now he holds the position of Shang Shuling, and in the new court of Taiyuan, almost all the officials are his protégés and friends." With him, there are too many constraints, and we must reappoint and dismiss hundreds of officials, and take the control of the various ministries of the imperial court into our hands. ”

"If you move now, will there be chaos, and besides, it will be suspected of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge!" It was Wei Zheng who spoke.

"This requires some skills, of course, this will indeed be a little suspicious, but we are not inviting guests to dinner, how can we care about face everywhere?" Yi Feng is not the kind of person who can't wipe off his face, he can get to where he is today, not by relying on righteousness to give face, but by strength. "Today, Gao Gong agreed to send troops to Guanzhong, I thought about it, in fact, it is not wrong to send troops."

Liu Wenjing, Wei Zheng and others all looked at Yi Feng, full of puzzlement. Just said that he didn't plan to send troops immediately, and now he wants to agree?

Yi Feng smiled, "I think so, I plan to add a new Privy Council to the imperial court, responsible for military orders and transfers." Then set up three yas to command the armies. ”

"The Privy Council? Sanya? ”

"What does that look like?" Su Xiaoci turned out to be the secretary of the military department of the imperial court, and he was very sensitive to Yi Feng's proposal to set up two institutions of the Privy Council and the Three Ya in addition to the Ministry of War, especially after hearing that the Privy Council was in charge of the transfer of military orders and the three Ya commanded the army, he felt that the crown prince could not be so simple as setting up a new institution on a whim, and these two new institutions must be aimed at the current situation in Taiyuan. This is a keen intuition, and it is also based on the premise that Yi Feng can always come up with some novel tricks and repeatedly perform miraculous feats.

Yi Feng wanted to build a new institution, of course, not for fun, but to deal with the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the current imperial court, especially the more than 200,000 Hedong troops controlled by Gao Gong, He Ruobi and others, as well as the remaining more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Henan, Hebei, Hedong and other places. In order to unite the military power, and to receive the military power of these armies into their own hands. Yi Feng didn't plan to immediately replace all the generals of the Hedong armies with his own people, that was unrealistic, the action was too big, and if it wasn't done well, it would change, and it was easy for He Ruobi and others to misunderstand. Therefore, Yi Feng planned to simply set up another organization from top to bottom, bypassing the current military headquarters of the imperial court and placing it on it.

Historically, the Privy Council began with Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, initially as an assistant to the emperor to report military information, and later became a way for eunuchs to interfere in politics, and their power grew. However, in the late Tang Dynasty, especially after the death of the Tang Dynasty, in the Five Dynasties, the power of the Privy Council began to expand continuously, and finally reached the perverted Cheng Dù of the Prime Minister and the Privy Councillor and the Temperance Envoy, who could depose the emperor. After the Song Dynasty, although the authority of the Privy Council declined, it was still retained, and even eventually became the top institution of the Eastern and Western Governments, along with the Political Affairs Hall. In the Song Dynasty, he divided the power of the army with the three yamen and the military department to help the emperor take charge of the army.

Yi Feng now also needed to control the army of the Taiyuan Imperial Court, so he did not hesitate to think of the Privy Council.

"The Privy Council is responsible for military orders, transfers, and the appointment and dismissal of senior generals, all of which belong to the Privy Council." Yi Feng explained that this Privy Council was equivalent to the Military Commission of later generations, and the Ministry of War immediately changed from its original important position to an idle yamen similar to the Ministry of Defense in later generations, only dealing with the administrative affairs of the army, the payment of military salaries, logistics supply, personnel placement, military recruitment, and the selection, appointment and dismissal of some military attachés below the seventh grade.

"What are the three yamen?"

"North Ya, South Ya and Bian Ya!" Yi Feng waved his hand, and Li Mi stepped forward and distributed confidential documents to these princes' henchmen.

On this confidential document, in the form of a unique Huaihuang official report, Yi Feng's changes to the military order and military administration were concisely and clearly written. In general, the Privy Council is in charge of military orders, and the Ministry of War is in charge of military affairs, and in addition to these two privy councils, there are also three officials in charge of the army.

The Sanya commanded all the armies, and they were responsible for commanding the army, but they did not have the right to transfer troops, nor did they care about logistics, food, salaries, and the selection, appointment, and dismissal of officials. (To be continued......)
