Chapter 490: Planning
For Li Yunze, the most important point for Li Yunze is that he can justifiably expand his strength.
He fulfilled his original promise to Li Siye and others, and arranged all these border troops who were willing to follow him into the sixth rate of the prince as a captain.
In addition, Li Bai Du Fu, Wang Zhilian, Gao Shi, Meng Haoran, Cen Shen and others also rose to serve in various departments of the East Palace.
It is said to be the East Palace in the later Song and Ming dynasties, but in fact it is no different except for a group of sons.
The East Palace of the Tang Dynasty is the East Palace in the true sense.
Naturally, there is no need to say much about the military power represented by the six rates of the crown prince, even if it is the various institutions in the East Palace, it is actually equivalent to a small imperial court.
The three divisions and three young princes are essentially the three divisions and three princes of the emperor.
The work of the prince, the prince, the prince and the princess is to educate the prince morally, but more often than not.
The young master of the prince, the young master and the young guard are the specific and practical education work.
These positions, in the Song and Ming dynasties, became titles, pure honors.
And Zhan Shifu is equivalent to Shangshu Province, and Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi is equivalent to Shangshu Ling and servants.
The Tang law clearly stipulates that 'the position of the crown prince Zhan Shi, the decree of the three temples of the East Palace and the Ten Rates Mansion, cite its discipline, and repair his position, and Shao Zhan Shi will do it.' β
The left and right Chunfang are equivalent to the emperor's subordinate provinces and Zhongshu provinces.
The three temples and the ten rate mansions of the East Palace are functionally equivalent to the nine temples of the central government, the five prisons and the sixteen guards and other administrative institutions.
Judging from these places, the East Palace is a small imperial court.
In addition, the Department of Economic Affairs, the Catering Bureau, the Drug Collection Bureau, the Internal Bureau, the Dian Bureau, the Palace Gate Bureau, etc. are the benchmarks.
As the saying goes, one person ascends to heaven with a chicken dog, and after Li Yunze entered the East Palace, the Jinshi under him entered the East Palace one after another to take up various positions.
The three divisions, the three young princes, the guests, and so on are naturally high-level, don't think about it, they all need to be appointed by the emperor himself, and they are all important ministers in the court.
However, there are many positions in the East Palace, which is enough to accommodate the dozens of scholars recruited by Li Yunze.
If it is said that when Li Yunze was the king of Shou before, he could only be regarded as a potential stock, but now when he enters the East Palace, he immediately becomes a real soaring skyrocket.
Countless talents have come to Li Yunze to seek a career.
This kind of thing, Li Yunze left it all to his subordinates to handle.
Yang Guozhong also finally had his own official position and was appointed as the commander of the East Palace.
The main duties of this position are to take charge of the carriage, horses, guard of honor, stables, etc.
To put it simply, he raises horses, but he is not the prince washing horses.
The crown prince washed the horse and was a high-ranking official who assisted the prince in handling government affairs.
This position is more vividly described, that is, Bi Ma Wen.
Yang Guozhong was not happy about this, he felt that even if he couldn't mix the three divisions and three youths, he would at least have to be a horse washer.
If it doesn't work, it's okay to be a prince's family order.
Actually let yourself take care of the stables, this and this.
Yang Guozhong, who was depressed, was received by Li Yunze.
In the study of the East Palace, as soon as Yang Guozhong walked in, he saw a large box on the ground.
Li Yunze knows very well what the preferences of people like Yang Guozhong are, so he doesn't talk nonsense, and just serves hard dishes.
The box was opened, and the golden light almost blinded Yang Guozhong's eyes.
"Guozhong."
Li Yunze, who was sitting on the chair, looked at Yang Guozhong, whose hands were trembling, with a smile, "You are the brother of the crown princess and the confidant of Lone, how can Lone not reuse you?" β
Yang Guozhong, who had returned to his senses slightly, simply bowed to the ground neatly, "Minister, I am willing to die for the prince!" β
"Guozhong."
Li Yunze got up and walked in front of Yang Guozhong, and stretched out his hand to help him up.
looked at him sincerely, "You are Lone's henchman, Lone has important things to do." The reason why you are arranged to be a servant of the temple is to avoid attracting the attention of others and to facilitate you to do things in secret. When you wait for a big treasure in the future, it will naturally be reused for you. β
The beautiful wishes and the benefits of reality are in front of him, Yang Guozhong only feels excited, and he can't wait to show his loyalty to Li Yunze on the spot.
After the chicken blood has been beaten, the next step is to work as a cow and a horse.
"Here are three thousand taels of gold." Li Yunze patted the box on the side, "Lonely, I want you to take this gold to do something." β
"Your Highness, please."
Li Yunze narrowed his eyes and said word by word, "Take this gold and go buy Wang Huanxi!" β
Wang Huanxi was originally an ordinary lieutenant of the forbidden army, and in the Jinglong coup d'Γ©tat thirty years ago, he followed the crown prince Li Chongjun and the Xuanwu Gate guard Li Duozuo to rebel together.
The first two coups in Xuanwumen were successful, but the Jinglong coup ended in failure.
When Li Xian appeared at the head of Xuanwu Gate City, he was already powerless in the battle, and the rebels quickly collapsed, and Wang Huanxi swung his knife and cut off the head of the main general Li Duozuo.
With this merit, Wang Huanxi was not only pardoned for his crimes, but also able to continue to serve as a captain in the forbidden army.
It's just that his practice of exchanging the head of the main general for military merits is highly despised in the army.
It's been 30 years, and I haven't come out.
In contrast, Chen Xuanli, the former little brother, was the boss of the forbidden army, and Wang Huanxi, who was a good drinker, complained a lot about it when he was drunk.
The most important reason why Yang Guozhong used a lot of money to buy Wang Huanxi was that Wang Huanxi was the guard of Shenwumen at this time!
After Li Sanlang killed the Wu clan and the Wei clan through a mutiny, he felt that the Xuanwu Gate had broken out four coups in a hundred years, so he renamed it Shenwu Gate.
Originally, after the name change in history, there was indeed no more Xuanwumen mutiny, but this time Li Yunze came, and it is estimated that history will be rewritten.
"It's a very important matter."
Li Yunze instructed in a deep voice: "Be sure to keep it secret and be careful, and never let others know." β
Yang Guozhong's expression was slightly flustered.
He is not stupid, of course he knows what it means to buy the guards of the Xuanwu Gate.
In a panic, he suddenly met Li Yunze's smiling gaze, and he came to his senses in an instant.
His net worth and life are already tied to the East Palace, and no matter what he does, he must focus on the East Palace.
No matter what the prince wants to do, he can only support him desperately.
"Your Highness, rest assured!"
Yang Guozhong, who came back to his senses, immediately patted his chest and promised, "The minister will definitely do it!" β
If you want to talk about governing the country, Yang Guozhong is really not good.
But if it is to pull people into the water, he is definitely professional.
Li Yunze arranged for him to do this, which can be regarded as a good use of people.
In addition, there is still an important thing to do for Li Yunze, that is, to win people's hearts.
Needless to say, the literati and celebrities arranged for Li Bai, the leader of the atmosphere group, to take them to eat, drink, and write poems all day long.
What he really values is the hearts of the sergeants.
If you want to win people's hearts, in addition to the kind and pleasant corporal Lixian, the most important thing is to give practical benefits.
Since ancient times, the human heart has been very realistic.
When it's good, it's natural to follow you, even if it's to go to war.
But if it's not good, then I'm embarrassed 'Your surname?' β
Therefore, Li Yunze not only often gives rewards, but also has enough wine and meat in his daily life, and has improved all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation.
Of course, the cost of this is huge.
Just like when Gao Lishi reported this matter to Li Sanlang, the emperor just smiled indifferently, "The quota of the East Palace is enough for him for a few days?" β
There is a fixed amount for all the expenses of the East Palace, and Li Yunze has raised his salary without authorization, so he needs to have corresponding expenditures.
There is so much money, if you spend it in advance, you will solve it yourself, anyway, the emperor will never pay for it.
At that time, the sergeants who had been well raised before would immediately feel resentment.
So Li Sanlang didn't care about this.
Even when Li Yunze sent people to recruit border troops to enrich the East Palace, he just waved his hand and passed.
It's still the same sentence, you can't afford to raise it without money.
The previous Donggong people were basically purged, and Li Yunze needed to recruit new people.
Usually, they are selected from the government soldiers who have been on duty in each prefecture, but Li Yunze knows that these government soldiers from the inland Zhichong Mansion are no longer the government soldiers of a hundred years ago.
A hundred years ago, the government soldiers were all from good families, and they were able to practice martial arts since they were young, and they were even able to prepare their own weapons and horses.
Whether it is the morale of the military or the actual combat ability, it is extremely outstanding.
In the current Tang Dynasty, as the land contradictions become more and more acute, and as the local people struggle to survive, there are few so-called good families.
Especially in the inland Ochichong Prefecture, there is even a matter of spending money to replace the previous value.
Either poor people with vegetables or hired street runners came.
Li Yunze definitely can't look down on these people.
And another very important point is that with the collapse of the government military system, the phenomenon of empty salaries in the Tang army broke out rapidly.
The soldiers and horses on duty last time said that there were 1,000 people, but in fact there may be only six or seven hundred, or even lower.
At this time, the only soldiers and horses that could be used in the Tang Dynasty were the border troops who fought all year round, and the Hu people who were recruited on a large scale.
Li Yunze naturally couldn't use the Hu people, so he arranged for Li Siye and Feng Changqing to go to the border with manpower and goods to recruit really capable border soldiers to fill the East Palace Guard.
After becoming a prince, you can't be as leisurely as you were in the prince's time, and you can go wherever you want to have fun.
The crown prince has a very important thing, that is, the court.
As the name suggests, it is an internship in politics.
In fact, it is to stand in a daze, because no matter what kind of things it is, it is not the prince's turn to make a decision.
Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the courtiers since the Qin and Han dynasties have been sitting, and they can be regarded as face-to-face with the Great King.
When I arrived in the Tang Dynasty, except for the emperor's throne, the rest of the ministers were standing.
After that, then start kneeling.
When he arrived at the Tartars, he even evolved the great ceremony of three kneeling and nine bowing, and even formed a kneel and worship for this reason, and he really gave it to be a slave.
For Li Yunze, the last dynasty was very familiar.
Every day, I stay there quietly and make a sculpture without saying a word, and quietly wait for the next court.
When it's not your turn to call the shots, then don't talk!
