In this war in the Void Floating Land, the empire has tried every means to seize the lead, but it is still difficult to hold this advantage. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And hundreds of thousands of miles away the imperial capital is not calm, when the national war started, the court at the same time rose a storm of rectifying military affairs, Qingming government affairs, for a time empty salary, meritorious, killing good and other years of collusion was liquidated, the bad habits of the lords of all sizes were swept away.

The gate valve family restrained its children while watching coldly. Today, His Majesty's mother family is not visible, and his wife family has changed repeatedly, and it has only been 20 years since he succeeded to the throne that such a big move is nothing more than to gather authority. It's just that it was a little far-fetched to cut the feudal domain in the name of Zhongxing before, but now it is taking advantage of the battle of national fortune to take advantage of the righteous name.

Today is another court meeting, and the solemn civil officials, military generals, and nobles of the main hall of Lingyun stand in shifts. Among the nobles are the princes of the clan and the lords of the family, and everyone is very popular, calm and majestic.

The political officials led by the cabinet, and the military generals led by the military department have a lot of fresh faces, although the rankings are relatively low, but they are all in their forties and young Zhuang faction, and the determination that can't be concealed is eye-catching, and they also have one thing in common, their backgrounds are not high, most of them are from the side of the family, and there are even scholars from the poor family.

Although Zhang Boqian was an imperial marshal, he was not among the generals. He was dressed in a black and gold royal robe, standing at the front of the noble procession. Zhang Boqian was knighted as the king of heaven, and he was still above the king of the emperor in the imperial system, and the other four kings had long since ceased to hold military and political positions, and of course they would not come to the court meeting, so he naturally occupied the first place of honor.

The other one is the same as him, who is the marshal of the empire but is not among the generals, is Lin Xitang. The first vacant position in the civil official queue belongs to him, but Lin Xitang has not appeared at the court meeting several times in a row due to repeated injuries. But just looking at these extra newcomers in the main hall of Lingyun, it can be seen that this emperor's henchman was absent from the court meeting, but he was never absent from state affairs.

With the passage of time, the court matters passed one by one, and the atmosphere in the main hall of Lingyun became more and more stagnant, and some people who were sensitive to state affairs had begun to feel that something was wrong.

Today's court deliberations seem to involve many fields of civil affairs, armaments, and local defense, but in fact, the results of the handling have followed a principle, the law of Taizu.

This principle itself is not wrong, the founding of the Great Qin, the emperor and the family ruled the world together, agreed on laws and regulations with each other, each had its own jurisdiction, and each settled in its own position, so that the empire is prosperous today. It's just that time cleanses people's hearts, and for the sake of their own and even blood interests, they will always wear out their ethics little by little. No matter how good the laws are, if they are not adhered to, they will corrupt the world more than they have no rules.

Take the three generations of meritorious heroes as an example, in fact, there is another sentence at the back, the people of the mustard are entitled, regardless of whether they are noble or low. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, meritorious officials who opened up the territory and expanded the territory could shade three generations of their descendants, but whether it was the children of the nobles or the children of the common people, the rewards should be the same. How much of this article is really implemented, everyone in this Lingyun main hall has a different account in their hearts.

However, these are not the focus of today's meeting.

"The Heavenly King does not lead the troops, and according to this example, the Imperial Military Region should be redesigned. The young inspector spoke the last words clearly, and closed the thick report in his hand as if nothing had happened.

The main hall of Lingyun was silent for a while.

Today's court meeting sounds like it is reiterating the laws of Taizu, and the last sentence is finally a dagger, pointing to only one person, King Qingyang, and Imperial Marshal Zhang Boqian.

The precedent of the king not leading the army began in the founding of the country, and the younger brother of Taizu, the younger brother of the same mother, King Baihe, immediately surrendered the military power on his own, and since then it has become a practice that whenever there is a general war in the empire, the king of heaven sits in charge of the overall situation, but does not care about military affairs.

It's just that except for the founding of the country and the Zhongxing period of Emperor Wu, the strong people of the human race generally have to go through a Jiazi flow year, that is, they can not impact the Heavenly King rank until they are sixty years old, and the entangled in mundane affairs will affect their cultivation, and the strong people who have the potential to advance to the Heavenly King generally do not go to the court position. This precedent is also almost forgotten.

In fact, what is more remarkable than the fact that the Heavenly King does not lead the troops is the redivision of the imperial military districts, which is a real redistribution of power.

The current Imperial Military District corresponds to ten current Imperial Marshals. Marshal is the highest real military position in Great Qin, with the right to recruit, train, and command the regular corps in the military region, and can dispatch and allocate all kinds of resources in the name of military quartermaster in wartime, and the authority is almost equal to that of local hereditary lords, which is almost equivalent to the imperial family's control over the fiefdom of the gate lord family. Because of this, the lord of the gate valve has never been able to hold the position of marshal at the same time.

And the Inspector who dropped such a heavy Force cannonball, as if he didn't know what kind of uproar his words would cause, he turned his head without fear, just in time to catch Zhang Boqian's cold sweeping gaze.

Most of the eyes in the main hall of Lingyun were focused on the two of them.

Fang Qingkong, the right envoy of the Cabinet Supervision Department, is just in his early forties, and he can be regarded as young and promising among the powerful people in the palace, but his reputation has nothing to do with his bright future. This person has a gentle appearance, but his methods are fierce and cruel, even the military police of the military department are sideways, and from the day he stepped into the Supervision Department, he did not hesitate to say that he would be a mad dog at Lin Shuai's feet.

is such a person, who has lived well for seven years, and has risen from the lowest Xiaoling to the third right envoy position in the whole company. There may be more people who want his life than they want to kill Lin Xitang.

Zhang Boqian only glanced at Fang Qingkong, then turned his gaze away, "If you want to accept my handsome seal, you can, ask Lin Xitang to get it yourself." ”

The entire Lingyun Hall was suddenly so quiet that the embroidery needles could be heard on the ground, and even the breathing of these many people seemed to become nothing.

Everyone knows Zhang Boqian's character very well, and the answer must be unexpected, but they still can't imagine that he will deal with such a big thing so easily. Zhang Boqian never came to the trick of being false and wronged, he said that if he could, he could. For a while, whether you stay out of the matter, or want to fish in troubled waters, or plan to support one of the parties, you don't know what to do.

Fang Qingkong reacted the fastest, and said with a smile: "If everything is too big or small, Lin Shuai needs to bow down to everything, then what do you want us people to do?"

Zhang Boqian said lightly: "If you want to find death, you are not qualified enough." ”

At this time, behind the heavy curtains, in the mist, the voice of the Supreme of the Empire was heard, and it turned around and filled every corner of the Lingyun Main Hall, "The cabinet will discuss the draft of today's court, and the pending matters will be handed over to the cabinet, the military department, and the sect to discuss and retreat." ”

The ministers saluted like a ceremony, and then left one after another in the sound of the bell chime of the scattered dynasty. Only then did someone go in groups and whisper by the way.

With Zhang Boqian's ascension to the throne, the contradictions between the two men not only failed to ease, but became more and more irreconcilable, until the bloody battle of the Iron Curtain intensified.

Many important ministers knew very well that Zhang Boqian's appearance in the Eternal Night Continent at the beginning was not to appoint, but to suppress the imperial party with obvious intentions to cut the domain. Lin Xitang was also dragged in the eternal night because of this, and he couldn't control the situation in the imperial capital for a while, the imperial party was split, and one of the factions even turned against Lin Xitang.

Most people guessed that Lin Xitang would fight back when he freed his hand, but no one expected him to act so recklessly and directly proposed to remove Zhang Boqian from his position as marshal.

However, if you think about it a little deeper, the external resistance to this matter will not be too great. Zhang Valve was as dominant as ever in the Bloody Battle and the Battle of the Sleep of the Behemoth, so even if the Gate Valve family that stood by Zhang Boqian's side to resist/cut the clan at the beginning, he would not want to see Zhang Valve continue to sit big, at most remain neutral.

As for Fang Qingkong's proposal to re-demarcate the military region, it will be implemented sooner or later, and it will be a protracted war to compete with the Eternal Night camp for control of the Void Floating Land, and the Empire's native defense system will inevitably be adjusted accordingly. But putting forward this matter together with asking Zhang Boqian to resign made many people begin to admire him.

No matter how worthy of criticism Fang Qingkong was, just his response in front of Zhang Boqian today was enough to make those top dignitaries look down on him.

Wei Guogong first sighed to Youguo Gong: "The Great Yan Heavenly Trick is really magical? Lin Xitang has always been accurate in looking at people, and it is rare that such a talent can be loyal to him to such a degree. He suddenly remembered something again, and sighed, "Alas, it's a pity! That kid from the Song family and Zhang Valve are getting closer and closer." ”

Youguo Gong knew that Wei Guogong had taken a fancy to Song Zining before he became famous, and when the achievements of Heiliu City were all attributed to Zhao Valve, Wei Guogong also came to the side to find out if Zhao Valve had any intention of soliciting.

But Song Zining rose too fast, and the break with Song Valve caught people off guard, and it was rumored that Zhao Jundu did not like him, and when everyone came back to their senses from these dazzling news, Song Zining had already gained a place in Zhang Boqian's command. Now if you want to subdue him again, it is no longer a simple inducement or coercion.

Speaking of Song Zining, Zhao Xuanji, the Duke of Youguo, immediately remembered Qianye and a secret report he had just received in the early morning, and suddenly a burst of depression surged into his heart. What is genius? What is genius that they Zhao Valve does not lack is genius! But looking at Zhao Weihuang's sons and daughters, none of them are worry-free.

At this time, a secret report with the same content was placed on the case of Zhao Valve's big camp in the distance, and Zhao Junyi, the boss of Zhao Valve's fourth son, sat in the first place. Among the brothers, he is the coolest Xiao Zhao Weihuang, and he has been in the army since he became an adult, and his gestures are full of rigid military demeanor.

He glanced at the two younger brothers below, his gaze stopped at Zhao Jundu, and asked, "What's going on, why did Zhao Qianye appear on the list of guests who respected the Tang Li family?"

It was Zhao Junhong who answered, he took the secret report on the case and flipped through it, and said plainly: "Qianye is an excellent ultra-long-range sniper, with a specialty in visual range, and the terrain of the misty forest is very suitable for him." Besides, seeing that he ranks so high among the guest secretaries, the Li family should have given him more than regular compensation. ”

Zhao Junyi frowned deeply, the reason that the second child said was suitable for any free and strong person, but it was ridiculous to use it on Qianye. He and this half-brother have never met, and they can't talk about likes and dislikes, but Zhao Jundu is different, and he has caused several troubles in the valve for the sake of a thousand nights.
