Chapter 431: Good General (1)

The prince of Dingguo stepped into the hall and bowed and saluted: "Minister Feng Yuan, I have seen His Royal Highness the prince."

"General Feng, please get up." A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and as he spoke, a hand had already lifted him.

When I looked up, it was the familiar handsome face of Xu Jing, the prince of the King of Beihai.

Dingguo Gongzi's heart was hot: "Thank you, Your Highness."

He is a military general who has gone through three dynasties, and he is used to being a moody emperor from above, and he is calm and cautious in his words and actions.

Xu Jing succeeded to the throne as the prince of the vassal king, which is the only one since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the enthusiasm and sincerity are unprecedented.

At this time, those clear eyes looked at him, and opened their mouths and said, "General Feng, I don't like to talk in circles. I have summoned you to the palace today to tell you about the Praetorian Guard and the Tiger Battalion."

"A palace change, the death of countless Great Jin guards, every time I think of it, my heart aches. There can't be no guards in the palace, and I plan to transfer 10,000 people from the Tiger Battalion into the guards first. In the future, the Tiger Battalion will continue to recruit new recruits for training, and those who perform well will be able to enter the Praetorian Guard."

"The Praetorian Guard is led by General Tao, and the prince of Wu An is the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard. I plan to transfer Li Xiao to Beijing and take charge of the Tiger Battalion. From now on, both the Praetorian Guard and the Tiger Battalion will be under my direct control."

"As soon as the enthronement ceremony is over, I will issue an edict. I want to tell General Feng about these things in advance. Please don't mind General Feng."

Xu Jing frankly told Feng Yuan about his intentions.

He was to take control of the Praetorian Guard and the Tiger Battalion.

The prince of Dingguo had been mentally prepared before entering the palace, and he was not surprised to hear this, and he was even a little moved in his heart. As Dingguo Gong said, thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and what the emperor wants to do, there is no need to explain it to his courtiers. Xu Jing did just that.

What else is he to be dissatisfied with?

"What His Royal Highness the Prince wants to do, you don't need to talk to your ministers in detail." The prince of Dingguo opened his mouth and said: "The minister is the general of the Great Jin, and he is loyal to the Great Jin, and he will never have two hearts, let alone complaints."

Xu Jing said, "However, I don't want General Feng to have the slightest misunderstanding and dissatisfaction."

As he spoke, he grabbed the arm of the prince of Dingguo, and his eyes were focused and eager: "General Feng is a loyal and good general, and I will definitely live up to General Feng in the future."

Prince of Dingguo: "......"

Fifty-year-old Feng Yuan, who boasted that his heart was as tough as a rock, was also melted by the sincerity and eagerness in those eyes at this moment.

The prince of Dingguo's heart was hot, and he suddenly knelt down: "The minister will never live up to the love and trust of His Royal Highness."

Xu Jing was overjoyed in his heart, and smiled and pulled up the prince of Dingguo: "Well said, why did you kneel down again." Come, come, get up, let's go over there and sit and talk."

Xu Jing didn't have half a stand, and pulled the arm of the prince of Dingguo to sit with great interest. The prince of Dingguo sat down involuntarily, and Xu Jing sat down beside him, sighing from the bottom of his heart: "During this period of time, the assassins of the thirteen states and the generals entered Beijing, and there was chaos all day long."

"I'm young and knowledgeable, and I don't have enough prestige. They are obviously respectful, but they don't really take me seriously. A few days ago, General Wu dared to choke with me in the court. If Li Xiao hadn't made a timely move, wouldn't I have suffered in vain."

"I can't keep them in the capital forever. As soon as the enthronement ceremony is over, they will have to go back to each other. But in this way, if I want to control the garrisons of the thirteen states, it will become empty talk. General Feng will think of a way for me."

Of course, there are solutions.

It's just a little lacking in morality.

The prince of Dingguo refused to say it at first, vaguely trying to fool the past. However, Xu Jing made up his mind to "ask for advice", and kept pulling his sleeves.

Where is there still the appearance of an emperor. and the naughty and coquettish young son in his family.

While the prince of Dingguo was amused, his heart suddenly softened, and he coughed and whispered, "His Royal Highness the prince has to listen, the minister does have an idea."

"They have no more trust than soldiers in their hands. These garrisons are far away from the capital and defend a state. Once there is a change in the capital, they can divide one side. Therefore, they are respectful on the surface, but in fact they are not very good

Take His Royal Highness the Prince seriously."

"After His Royal Highness ascends the throne, he might as well change their positions. For example, the general Wu asked him to go to Jizhou to lead the army. Then transfer the general of the Jizhou army to merge the state. In this way, they are not demoted to official positions, but also curb their ambitions and power."

Xu Jing's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he grinned, "It's really a good idea. I should have asked General Feng for advice."

The prince of Dingguo smiled reservedly, and took the opportunity to mention a few more words: "This matter should be decided as soon as possible and cannot be delayed. Taking advantage of the momentum of His Highness's accession to the throne, this matter will be set as a permanent rule, and there will be less resistance."

Xu Jing nodded again and again: "General Feng's plan is very clever. I'll discuss it with the Queen, and if she nods yes, I'll follow the plan."

Xu Jing has been able to get to this point now, half of which is due to the full support of Empress Su. Xu Jing has always been obedient to Queen Su, and he is close to him in respect.

It's just a son to a mother, and that's it.

Affectionate and righteous, kind-hearted and pure-hearted. Such a prince of Beihai is the new emperor who impresses the courtiers.

As for the trivial things such as always being sleepy when reading and watching the twists and turns, it is not enough to mention. Thinking about the time when Emperor Yongming was alive, it was common for him to delay for a few days before approving it, and he often asked his inner servant Ma to think twice about writing it. The ministers dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

It wasn't until dark that the prince of Dingguo returned home. The first thing I did after returning home was to go to Dingguogong's study and tell my father about today's palace situation.

After hearing this, Dingguo Gong glanced at his son thoughtfully: "Before you entered the palace, didn't I tell you to listen more and talk less? Why did you say everything as soon as the prince asked?"

The prince of Dingguo thought for a while and replied, "His Royal Highness the prince tugged at my arm and insisted on letting me come up with an idea. I couldn't hold back any of them, so I told me what I had been thinking about for many days."

This picture is too strong.

The picture of Xu Jing tugging at the sleeve of the prince of Dingguo couldn't help but appear in his mind, and he didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, so he sighed for a while: "You haven't thought about it, the prince actually has a plan in his heart. This is deliberately said through your mouth. In the future, when this matter is decided, all the generals will know that it was your idea, but they will all complain about you."

The prince of Dingguo was determined: "Impossible, the prince is definitely not that kind of person."

Dingguo Gong glanced at his son again: "You have a lot of confidence in the son."

The prince of Dingguo raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Yes. That's what it feels like for a good general to meet Mingjun."

Ding Guogong: "......"
