It has been almost three months since the Seven Kings rebelled, but the plot is full of ups and downs and exciting. At the beginning of the army, the momentum was huge, invincible, half of Dahua changed banners, and the public opinion circle had already decided that the king of Huainan would become a fact. However, in the first battle of the Yellow River, the imperial army defeated the rebels back to their original shape, and then the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the rebels were in internal and external difficulties, and retreated, especially the beheading action carried out by the second front, which completely broke the will of the rebels.

Now that the king of Huainan led the remnants to retreat from the lair, and was surrounded by the imperial army, this civil war that decided the future and fate of Dahua has come to an end. As for the king of Changsha who was cowering in Changsha Mansion, there were thousands of soldiers and horses, and I believe that he could win without a fight.

The war went much smoother than Han Fei expected, and Du Liang's troops, which were originally used as surprise soldiers, were no longer needed, and Han Fei ordered Du Liang to lead the invincible fleet to continue to return to Lingnan for training and prepare for the development of the sea frontier.

The king of Changsha heard that Han Fei had sent a number of soldiers and horses to Changsha Mansion to encircle and suppress, and hurriedly sent someone to send an excerpt to surrender and ask for guilt.

The king of Changsha knew the current affairs and surrendered to the imperial court, avoiding further military disasters in Changsha Province, which was what Han Fei wanted most. He read the excerpts of the king of Changsha, and immediately said: "Take over the defense of Changsha Mansion, disband the guard army of the king of Changsha, and make a list of the people, as for the family of the king of Changsha...... Let's take a look at it in the palace first, and hand it over to the Jinyi Mansion to dispose of! ”

The king of Changsha heard that it was to let the Jinyi Mansion take over and dispose of it, and he was completely desperate, the king of Guangnan, the king of Qingyuan, the king of Luzhou and the king of Linjiang heard that they were all killed by the Jinyi Mansion. However, this thing is also normal, the failure of the rebellion will inevitably end in death, the king of Changsha regrets that he should not listen to the king of Huainan and join the rebellion, but unfortunately there is no regret medicine in the world.

Instead of being killed, he couldn't even keep a whole corpse, so it was better to cut himself off, and the Changsha Wang family committed suicide by poisoning. When the news reached the camp outside Huainan City, Han Fei was shocked, "They all surrendered, why do you want to commit suicide?" I didn't order their execution! ”

The death of the king of Changsha, public opinion has no sympathetic arguments, and a failed rebellion should be condemned by the whole people. History is like this, the winner is the king and the loser is Kou, even if you used to be a high prince, now you are also a shrinking corner of the grass, maybe when future generations pass by the grave, they will sigh, "If you don't die, you won't die, a good prince is not right, why run to rebel?" ”

Since the rebellion of the Seven Kings, six kings have been destroyed, and one Huainan king is left to shrink in Huainan City, but in people's understanding, he is already a dead man, depending on when Han Fei, the Duke of Zhongguo, is willing to kill him.

The rebellion seems to be a farce, but the damage to the national economy and the people's livelihood is enormous. Han Fei couldn't leave the army, so Ling'er took several of his handwritten letters, rode his red rabbit horse, and hurried back to the capital.

Ling'er did not return to the Han Mansion, and went directly to the palace to rush to Cining Palace to find Jia Yuanchun, the Empress Dowager of the West Palace.

These days, Jia Yuanchun's mood is also ups and downs, the rebels were like a bamboo in the early days, threatening the capital, rumors were spreading in the capital, she was nervous and couldn't sleep at night. Later, the imperial army reported frequent successes, and the rebels were defeated, and the atmosphere in the capital stabilized, and she made up her mind. She also firmly believes that as long as Han Fei is there, the safety of their mother and son will be guaranteed.

"Sister Ling'er, why did you go back to Beijing? How's the war going ahead? When Jia Yuanchun heard that Ling'er had entered the palace, he hurriedly announced her entry and said, "Is there something urgent for my brother to handle?" ”

"Empress Dowager Qiyu, the battle ahead is very smooth, the king of Guangnan, the king of Qingyuan, the king of Luzhou, the king of Linjiang, the king of Fengyang, the king of Changsha and other six kings have been executed one after another, the king of Huainan and his remnants were besieged in Huainan City by the imperial army, and the rebels are about to be destroyed!" Ling'er took out a letter from her bosom, presented it to Jia Yuanchun, and said: "This rebellion of the Seven Kings has a profound impact on the governance of local officials and the lives of the people, and the Duke of Zhongguo is very worried about this, if order is not restored in time, Dahua will suffer major trauma." Now that the war is coming to an end, the Zhongguo Gong sent slaves and maids back to Beijing to report to the Queen Mother, immediately rectify the rule of officials, resume production, and not miss the agricultural time in the second half of the year. ”

"The non-brother is the pillar of the country, thoughtful, sister Ling'er, I don't know if the non-brother has specific arrangements for this matter?"

"Empress Dowager, Zhongguo Gong didn't say it, presumably there will be suggestions in the letter!"

Jia Yuanchun, the Empress Dowager of the West Palace, opened the letter and read it, and said with a smile: "The strategy of the non-brother is very good, the confiscated family property of the criminal ministers who participated in the rebellion will be subsidized to the people who have been affected by the military disaster, so that it can indeed quickly calm the people's hearts and restore the people's livelihood, and the mourning family agrees very much!" It's just, Sister Ling'er, what does this formation of internal guards mean? ”

The name of the internal guard was agreed upon by Han Fei and Ling'er, and in the process of this campaign against the rebels, Zifu's actions have gradually become public, and he took the opportunity to give a name to turn Zifu into a regular position, so as not to become a handle for political enemies to attack in the future.

Ling'er hurriedly said: "Empress Dowager Qiyu, the Han family has a group of people who specialize in exploring the business situation in various places, this time to recruit the rebels, Zhongguo Gong ordered those people to inquire about the rebels, which played an important role in exterminating the rebels, and now that the war is about to end, Zhongguo Gong wants to simply set up a special intelligence agency for those people to explore all kinds of intelligence for the imperial court, and at the same time can also supervise and balance Jinyi Mansion and other institutions." Just like the last mutiny, as well as the Seven Kings Rebellion this time, the news of Jinyi Mansion is very slow, indicating that there is a problem, and only by using your own people can you get accurate information and respond quickly. ”

The last mutiny and this rebellion of the Seven Kings were the most hated things in Jia Yuanchun's heart, and he immediately said: "Brother Fei is thoughtful, the mourning family is in favor of the establishment of internal guards, but the internal guards are in charge of the inner court, and the mourning family is not at ease, Ling'er's sister is strong in martial arts, how about you simply be in charge of the internal guard?" ”

"This ...... It is incumbent on the slave maid to contribute to the protection of the queen mother and the emperor, but the slave maid is not a female official in the palace, and I am afraid that she will be criticized as the commander of the internal guard! ”

"What's the matter, the mourning family will seal you the position of a female official!"

"Slaves obey the Queen Mother's orders!"

The internal guard was formed in the name of the inner court, and only a decree from the queen mother was required, and Ling'er served as the commander of the internal guard as a female official in the palace. The internal guard is a copy of the Purple Mansion, but the power is very great, not only to spy on intelligence, but also to have the power to supervise hundreds of officials, including the Jinyi Mansion, bureaucrats at all levels are among the internal guard supervision. The Purple Mansion Law Enforcement Team has naturally become the law enforcement guard of the internal guard.

The establishment of the internal guard, the ministers were a little surprised at first, but when they saw that the commander of the internal guard was Ling'er, all kinds of noises disappeared suddenly. Who is Ling'er? is not only Han Fei's woman, but also his henchman, the appearance of Ling'er, the internal guard must be Han Fei's idea, and Han Fei's power will inevitably rise even more after the rebels are exterminated, and whoever is looking for death will discuss this matter.

On the same day, Jia Yuanchun summoned the cabinet ministers, the commander of the Jinyi Mansion, and the chief of the three law divisions, and according to Han Fei's suggestion, sent officials to various places to restore local order.
