Devil’s Advent

The royal driver of Emperor Dayan crossed the Bian River.

When I got close to the capital, I saw patches of dry land people coming to "welcome".

It seems inappropriate to say that Wang Shi is welcome;

But in terms of hatred...it's not that strong.

One is because of the cold saber of Jindong Jiashi in the city, which really shocked people's hearts.

Those who should rebel have already rebelled, and have been suppressed;

Those who should be hanged for the death of their country by burning their families, their corpses were either completely cooled or turned into ashes;

Those who should be closed to themselves and engage in non-violent non-cooperation, no one will invite him or embarrass him.

The most important thing is that the King Regent's entry into Shangjing this time is different from the last time, because Zhao Mugou chose to surrender. Although he himself suffered a great humiliation as the emperor, he has indeed preserved the capital. Suffered another baptism of military disaster.

Therefore,

Everyone has their own direction to choose, and fear of death is the natural state of all living beings.

The common people naturally cooperate as they should. Anyway, for a hundred years, they have been the same when facing the officials, especially the common people in the capital are... familiar with these scenes.

The Emperor of Yan Kingdom has come,

They also went out of town to welcome.

When the emperor's Luanjia passed by, he could also kneel down and be led to "Long live the mountain".

Ji Chengjue's gaze, through the curtain of Luanjia, swept across the numb and hesitant faces kneeling on both sides of the road, and was not immersed in the sound of "long live".

Silently spitting out the grape seeds in his mouth, Eunuch Wei reached out to take it;

Eunuch Zhang next to him picked up another silk cloth and gently wiped the corners of His Majesty's mouth.

"It seems that the person surnamed Zheng managed Shangjing well."

The emperor's way of looking at things must be different from that of ordinary people. He has been observing since he crossed the Bian River. Now the capital of the former Qian Kingdom has resumed a systematic operation. Although the efficiency is still very low, although the structure There are still certain gaps in the system, but it does work.

As a Conqueror, to be able to do this in such a short period of time... is truly remarkable.

but,

Since he is Zheng Fan,

The emperor also felt that it should be done.

In fact,

Back then, the reason why King Jingnan protected the man surnamed Zheng time and time again,

Why did the father promote the Zheng surnamed again and again based on the standards of the feudal officials?

Not only because this guy surnamed Zheng knows how to fight,

Its ability to govern the local area is also extremely important.

In contrast, the leaders of the Eighth Army, who had a higher official position than Zheng or the same group, were left far behind and could not be seen at all.

Only from the perspective of the overall situation, from the perspective of the operator and the ruler, can we more clearly perceive how important a talent like Zheng is.

The territory laid down will be supported by other garrison troops, and he can not only quickly achieve self-sufficiency and self-development, but also radiate his military influence as much as possible.

Just don't be too sweet;

In contrast, the so-called tiger breeding is not worth mentioning in a certain period of time.

When De Luanjia was about to enter the city gate, the official welcoming team finally appeared.

"I'm guessing, the person surnamed Zheng will definitely not come to greet me in person, but probably sent his son."

Eunuch Wei, who had just received the report from outside, immediately smiled and said:

"Master, you guessed wrong this time, the prince regent is right ahead to meet you, master."

"Yo?"

When Emperor Dayan Ji Chengjue heard this, he was slightly stunned for a moment, then propped himself up, stood up by himself, and laughed at himself at the same time:

"Straight mother thief, why do I feel flattered."

When Eunuch Wei and Eunuch Zhang heard this, they smiled at each other and stepped forward to help His Majesty arrange the dragon robe.

"Meet the prince!"

"Meet the prince!"

Outside, there was the sound of greetings from the imperial guards.

In the entire Dayan, there was only one person who didn't need to report to the saint at all.

No one dared to step forward to stop him and asked him to wait.

One is that as people close to the emperor, they clearly know the true friendship between their majesty and him;

The second is because no one dares to bear it, and no one can bear the consequences.

Just imagine,

One day the regent comes to see the emperor,

was stopped,

The guard said he wanted to report,

Next,

what will happen

If the prince waits quietly, that's fine, but according to the prince's temper, if he doesn't intend to wait, but directly chooses to turn around and leave...

Dayan's sky can collapse in half in an instant!

The curtain was lifted from the outside,

"I said Ji Lao Liu, you are a bitch, you have to put on makeup before you go out;

The sun is so big today, I have been waiting for you outside for so long and still haven't come out. "

"Meet the Prince Regent, Prince Fukang!"

The court ladies and eunuchs inside all knelt down,

Even the two grand dukes who helped His Majesty put on the dragon robe just knelt down to salute,

Especially Eunuch Wei, his kneeling is a standard.

Eunuch Wei was really scared. Back then, he was a mean-spirited person, but he just made a joke. It would be his honor to put ordinary people aside. After all, not everyone is worthy of being "appreciated" by the eunuch.

But this master, since that day,

Almost every time they met, their official positions, titles, and power all increased a lot.

at the moment,

First destroy Chu, then destroy Qian,

In the Three Great Nations War, he participated in one indirectly and directly commanded two.

His status and status can no longer include his meritorious deeds,

Even if King Jingnan returns and the old Zhenbei King is revived, in terms of meritorious service rankings, this Lord can still take the first place well deserved.

"Hey, Eunuch Wei, don't come here unharmed."

Warm greetings from the Prince Regent.

In Wei Zhonghe's heart, there were countless Mr. Genjiao,

God,

How long will this master have to hold grudges!

"The servant congratulates the prince for destroying the country!"

Eunuch Wei responded immediately with a smiling face, like a daisy blooming.

Fortunately, at this time the emperor spoke and scolded:

"I said Zheng, why are you so anxious? I thought it was your son who picked him up, but I didn't expect you to come in person."

"If my son comes, you don't plan to come out, do you?

well,

Fortunately, I am here. "

The emperor rolled his eyes at the prince,

road:

"Go."

In the eyes of thousands of people, the King Regent in python robes and the Emperor Dayan in dragon robes stepped out of the Luanjia together. The King Regent was riding a wild animal, while the Emperor was riding a black and handsome BMW. The two entered the city side by side.

"Why didn't you ride Pixiu?" Zheng Fan asked.

"The number of Pixiu is not much, why should I ride it, it's a waste.

correct,

Almost forgot,

You guys are getting more and more courageous now, so you're really not afraid of taking it off this time? "

"You can't take it off." Zheng Fan shook his head, "If it's just about fighting now, I can't think of who else I can lose to."

"Tsk tsk, listen, listen, you really know how to use sticks to climb up and praise yourself, the surname is Zheng, we have known each other for more than ten years, why are you getting thicker and thicker?"

"You'll understand after you charge into battle with a knife in person a few times."

"oh?"

"Thick skin, able to block swords and arrows."

"Zheng Fan, do you think I'm an idiot?"

"Wise and powerful flattery, even if you think about it, you're tired of hearing it, so it's only here that I can blow different winds. Cherish it."

The two most honorable people in Dayan laughed and cursed very naturally while walking;

All the originally arranged and prepared ceremonies were temporarily canceled after they each waved their hands.

the two of them,

He is the biggest rule in the world today, and he is also the one who makes the rules.

"The next focus must be on countering the rebellion?" the emperor asked.

"Not urgent."

"Why?"

"We have already entered the rice vat, so we don't need to be too greedy all at once, it's not beautiful to burst our stomachs.

Shangjing was won; Sanbian was also taken; Jiangnan half was also taken.

First, slowly digest and digest what you eat in your mouth;

Several generals under my command are currently fighting in various places, but they are not strong enough, and it is difficult to make a major breakthrough, so why not put them there first and maintain the situation.

Firstly, we now need time to integrate and stabilize ourselves; secondly, we will also give those who are unwilling to submit to Dayan a time to hurry, let them all gather together, and then they will be able to settle down once and for all. "

"Soldiers and horses are still enough." The emperor said, "I brought a lot of soldiers and horses this time."

"But soldiers and horses are not used like this."

"Okay, I'll listen to you about military matters."

"Well, there is one more thing I didn't say earlier, that is, if you want to use people to surrender troops, you have to gather them together before they can be used, otherwise don't make mistakes on the battlefield."

"I have an idea on this point. Like your military system in Eastern Jin, you also set up a standard household system in dry land. In this way, you can divide and collect the loyalty of the dry army."

Hearing this, Zheng Fan turned to look at Ji Chengjue.

"Why, you don't want me to plagiarize your system?"

Zheng Fan shook his head and said, "I heard that you made Zu Zhuming Marquis of Donghai?"

"yes."

"You are the emperor, and you stand in the position of the emperor. After Qiandi was destroyed, I know that you can't wait for the Qian people to become Yan people in an instant, and become your people, so as to achieve long-term peace and stability.

But it is also the military meritorious title and the transplanted standard household system,

Ji Lao Liu,

How do you let those Dayan soldiers who are desperately working hard to open up territories for you feel in their hearts?

Indeed,

You have your reasons, and I also know that your approach is correct in terms of the overall situation.

But after all, you are the emperor of Dayan first, and then the emperor of Zhuxia.

One day, Qiandi, Jindi, and Chudi may all rebel. At that time, the only ones who are really willing to fight for you to the end are Laoyan people.

If you chill their hearts, is it possible that in the end you are counting on the Qianren, the Chu people and the Jin people who have been accepted by you to protect you Qin Wang? "

The emperor has the position of the emperor,

The Regent has the position of the Regent;

Zheng Fan is the well-deserved No. 1 person in the Dayan Army. Since he has this position, he must bear this responsibility, which is the most basic "virtue must be coordinated".

You have to fight for the interests of the groups and classes you represent.

Of course, Zheng Fan's reminder was not purely out of the narrow internal interests of the military group, because what he said was indeed the truth.

The world is initially settled, but the war will not stop in a short time.

At this time, the hearts of the soldiers of the Yan army were hurt. Who will continue to be willing to work for you?

Chen Yang has the merits of breaking the capital, and because of the so-called "merits and demerits", he has not yet been granted the title of Marquis.

As a result, a surrendered general was made a marquis first?

"I know you are doing it for my own good," the emperor said.

Because Zheng Fan would not mention this at all if he had selfish intentions. He could even directly add fuel to the flames and further divide the relationship between the court and the army.

"However, I have also considered these things. Zu Zhuming's Marquis title is due to my enthusiasm. After all, the previous emperors of Dayan, especially the father, have been stuck in the heart of these three sides for decades.

I will ask Wei Zhonghe to give you a list later, which is the list of rewards I have drawn up, and you will take it back after you make up for me. This time, the Marquis has prepared a lot. "

"OK."

"Qiandi, what a good place, Mr. Zheng, what do you think I moved the capital here?"

"The Son of Heaven guards the gate of the country."

Hearing this, Ji Chengjue was thoughtful.

After the nominal unification of Zhu Xia, the predictable future that may become the real threat to Dayan still comes from the desert.

Either a new barbarian king reappeared in the barbarians in the desert, or... the power of the West extended through the desert.

In comparison,

The natives, the Northern Qiang, the savages, and the Shanyue people are all minor problems. The real threat in the future will still be in the West.

The emperor said: "I know the meaning of your words, but from the perspective of state governance, Shangjing is barely the center of Zhuxia."

Geographically, it is also central, and in terms of economy and culture, it is the undisputed central area.

"not necessarily."

"not necessarily?"

"If there is a westward expedition in the future, Dayan will be the central government."

When Zheng Fan said this, Ji Chengjue was a little surprised and moved.

but,

He didn't continue to ask this topic any more.

Instead:

"Then it's good to be a companion first;

correct,

The next thing is still the old rules, you call the shots in military affairs, and I will assist in other aspects. "

"Don't mind, the battle is over, I'm going to go home and lie down."

"If you don't sit in the capital, who will sit in the capital? Could it be possible that I, the emperor, can live here directly?

Besides, the results of your hard work, are you willing to hand them over to others? What accidents will happen? "

"My uncle is still there, he stabbed me this time, I have to go back and settle the score with him.

Here in Shangjing, it is enough to arrange for a senior official who can take care of himself to manage and guard it.

The Northern Qiang and the natives can be appeased first, and concentrate their efforts to wipe out the remnants of the Qiang Kingdom. "

"You recommend someone."

"Xu Wenzu."

"good."

It may be hard for outsiders to believe that in the process of entering the city to laugh and scold, the emperor and prince of Dayan completed the arrangements for the huge country.

After entering the palace,

The emperor is going to prepare for the Great Court Meeting.

The last time, the officials of the Qian Kingdom kowtowed to the regent in the hall, it was as a bow of the conquered party;

And this time,

Emperor Dayan came here on behalf of the justice of the legal system. What needs to be done is to re-establish a real governance order in Shangjing and Daqian;

That is to say, the last time, the big guy did it to save his life;

And this time,

It is to continue to be an official in the future.

Zheng Fan also had to prepare, the emperor summoned the officials of the Qian Kingdom, Zheng Fan had to appease the surrendered generals of the Qian Kingdom, and the leaders of the Yan Army who came with the emperor.

Both civil and military, he and Ji Laoliu are responsible for the same, this is a tacit understanding.

"My lord, this is the list of rewards that His Majesty asked you to add."

Eunuch Zhang sent a yellow paper.

Zheng Fan reached out to take it, nodded, and then rode Pixiu out of the palace.

Since Ji Laoliu has lived in this palace, it is not suitable for him to stay here. However, he found a Prince's Mansion in Shangjing City as his temporary residence.

This mansion was the residence of the Xianguan's family when they were princes, and it has been repaired and added several times. Although it does not have the majesty and grandeur of a palace, it is absolutely exquisite and quiet.

After all, the Qianguo official who is known as the Supreme Daoist Emperor is a master who knows how to enjoy.

Civil and military factions,

Each went back to each house, each looking for each mother.

Zheng Fan came to his mansion on a pixiu. Outside, there were already many personal guards of various generals waiting. When they saw the regent, they all knelt down and saluted.

Their chief general is already inside.

Zheng Fan rode Pai Yao straight in, took out the reward decree and glanced at it.

Um,

Just glanced at it.

Because the top is empty, but a big seal has been added.

It is not uncommon to have imperial edicts printed in blank, at least for the regent, he is a professional in making imperial edicts.

But this blank imperial decree meant one thing, that is, the emperor completely delegated power, allowing Zheng Fan to decide the rewards in the army by himself.

Even whoever is a military hero,

It was also up to him, Zheng Fan, to decide, after all, the emperor hinted at this sentence when he entered the city.

At this time, Zheng Lin followed the blind godfather out of the side yard, and happened to see his father sitting on Pixiu's back.

Seeing his father throwing a bright yellow imperial decree, Zheng Lin stretched out his hand to catch it.

"hehe."

Father laughed twice, rode Pixiu straight into the front hall.

Just as Zheng Lin was about to open the imperial decree in his hand, he heard his godfather beside him say:

"No need to open it, it's blank."

"Huh?" Zheng Lin snorted first, then turned, "Oh."

My godfather really doesn't need to open the envelope to read the letter, the same is true for the imperial decree.

"Unsurprisingly, it should be the purpose of the reward, military merit reward." The blind man said.

"So, what the emperor means is to let my father decide the matter of awarding himself? Isn't this equivalent to completely delegating military power?"

"Yes." The blind man nodded, "That's why I've been telling you, this emperor, it's not easy. Godfather, I'm still helping your father plan the division of the territory after the war. Be direct and give more."

"Isn't he afraid?"

"What are you afraid of? The more he gives, the more stable he will be. The more stingy he is, the more dangerous he will be.

Lin'er,

This is the same as the young couple discussing the dowry before getting married.

As long as one party wants to take advantage, it will often end up making a lot of chicken feathers, and one hundred and one thousand people will feel uncomfortable.

But if both parties are generous, they don't want to take advantage of it, but are willing to give more.

If you want to take advantage of me, even if you take advantage of me by a penny, I will not feel it. You don't want to take advantage, you are generous, and I won't feel heartbroken if you buy you ten taels of flower wine. "

"Godfather, don't worry."

Zheng Lin reached out and patted the back of the blind man's hand.

The blind man took a deep breath, let it out slowly, and said with a smile:

"I'm not in a hurry, I have no hope for your father since a long time ago, my hope is on you.

The Iron Triangle between the First Emperor and the Northern and Southern Kings,

The pattern of your father and the emperor in this generation,

cannot be changed anymore.

But who can guarantee the next generation? "

"Yes." Zheng Lin responded, "Lin'er will not disappoint godfather."

"Lin'er is so good."

"For the sake of Lin'er being so obedient, then godfather help me to deny the marriage of some ancestral family."

"Don't think about it."

"But I promised that I will help godfather to rebel if I have the chance in the future."

"That's right, so the crown prince married one. If you don't marry, you will suffer a disadvantage? His Zu Zhuming will definitely be the guardian of the dry land in the future."

Zheng Lin: "I..."

"It's just a woman, why worry about it, doesn't your father have four wives?"

"But my father was snatched, it's not an arranged marriage."

The blind man stretched out his hand, touched Zheng Lin's head, and said:

"Your father also arranged it."

"Heh, who can take care of him?"

"Your mother."

...

this day,

Emperor Dayan accepted the kowtows of all officials in the main hall, and Zhao Mugou stepped forward again on his knees, pleading guilty to Emperor Dayan, claiming that he was crowned as a monkey, and that the other party was the real destiny.

The emperor announced that Shangjing was established as the accompanying capital of Yanjing, imitating the structure of the Yanjing court, with six ministries and a cabinet.

this day,

In the courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, the Prince of Dayan accepted the salute from the generals of Yangan;

Ji Wujiang and Zu Zhuming respectively congratulated the prince on behalf of Yan Gan's generals, reconfirming that the regent is the unshakable position... the true number one in the Dayan army.

The prince canonized Jin Shuke, Chen Yang and other generals with great military exploits as military meritorious officers in public.

Chen Xianba was conferred the title of Uncle. He already had a lot of military exploits, and he still has the head of the Zhu Kingdom on his body, so he is beyond reproach.

Tian Tian was also conferred as Bo. He is the heir son of Prince Jingnan. To be conferred as Bo means to take a route similar to Ji Wujiang's, and he is very tolerant.

Zheng Man was also named uncle.

He actually doesn't have enough military exploits, qualifications, and background like Tian Tian,

But as the well-deserved number one mountain in the Dayan military,

The regent needs to forcibly praise an unqualified person to make him forcibly qualified, so as to show the regent's "nepotism"!

Everything has two sides. Excessive cronyism will lead to the collapse of the organizational structure, but moderate cronyism can also help strengthen cohesion,

otherwise,

Who wants to continue messing with you?

In the canonization list, two people were missing.

One was Liang Cheng, who was the first in the battle to destroy the cadres, and the other was Gou Moli, who had perfectly completed supporting auxiliary tasks in the two battles to destroy the country.

Liang Cheng was too lazy to accept the new canonization from the government, and people have long looked down upon it. Besides, Zheng Fan's soldiers are Liang Cheng's soldiers, what else does he want?

As for Gou Moli, it was he who proposed not to be canonized on his own initiative, and said with a shy face that they were all members of the family, and that he was granted a title of title or official position, which was born.

People and puppies, the dream is not to become an official, but to squeeze into the sequence of "gentlemen".

In short,

Everything is spiraling upward.

The reason for the spiral is that,

Zhao Yuannian wanted to show off in Jiangnan before he entered Shangjing to accept the conferment of the national title, so he ignored Jin Shuke's objection and forcibly organized an army to open up the Jiangnan territory.

However, his subordinates were completely mobs, and even the rebels organized by the people in the Jiangnan area were unable to defeat them, and they were defeated in a rather embarrassing manner.

Fortunately, Jin Shuke led his troops to show up in time to help him out, and finally defeated the rebel army, otherwise Zhao Yuannian's face would be greatly embarrassing.

But despite this,

After Zhao Yuannian went to Beijing and took the title of emperor, he was still canonized as Prince Qian;

And Zhao Mugou,

He went back and forth wherever he went, and was canonized as Prince Rui again.

The curse of Prince Rui's Mansion will continue without accident.

Other,

The emperor canonized Xu Wenzu as Taiwei and supervised the accompanying capital.

It is said that Xu Wenzu cried for a long time in front of the willow tree planted by the previous prince before entering the capital;

After he was named Taiwei, he ran to the willow tree again and cried for half the night, but this time he brought wine and accompanied the willow tree, telling the story between him and the regent;

It is said that he met the regent early in the past and became a confidant;

It is said that he also joined the Liuye Party early in the past, and His Majesty is indeed a wise king through the ages.

What Xu Wenzu will probably never know is that,

In front of Zhenbeihou's mansion, Sha Tuo Queshi deliberately smashed the carriage that Xu Wenzu was supposed to hide with his fist, which was ordered by his confidant Zheng Fan;

And when he was inexplicably abducted into the red tent and held for a long time, he finally had to ride two horses to death before he was able to run back to Hutou City in extreme embarrassment, thanks to the present Mingjun.

After everything is arranged properly,

The regent will go down the Qianjiang River, take the old road, pass the Xie family's territory, and then turn back to Jindong.

Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge; for a prince to take revenge, tonight.

How could he go home and soak in the hot springs if he didn't report back to Zheng Fan for his brother's stabbing in the back?

Although the dry land has not been completely restored now, the core area is basically in the hands of the Yan people, and the resistance forces in the dry land here and there cannot become a big climate at all.

After solving the Qian State, under the general trend, what room can he have for the already half-disabled Chu State?

And the emperor,

It will also return to Yanjing in the north.

"The Imperial Beast Supervisor has newly bred four Pixiu. How about assigning one to each of your three cubs?"

"Why is the Beast Supervisor so productive all of a sudden?"

Pixiu is very difficult to cultivate, it is not a Pixiu after all.

"The Beast Supervisor has developed a new method, which can extract soul blood from the old Pixiu spirit in the palace, and the success rate has increased accordingly."

"Four heads are too few, let me reserve eighteen heads first, and give me a personal guard, so that there will be enough time to meet when I go out."

"Dream you!"

"Heh, merchants are stingy by nature."

"The one surnamed Zheng, after returning to Beijing, I will repair the Lingyun Pavilion you mentioned, and I will give you the first place."

"I said, if you are really sincere, make room for me in your temple."

"Fart, would your surname Zheng want me to enter your ancestral grave!"

"Come on, let me leave a space for you."

The emperor froze for a moment, then cursed:

"Bitch!"

The prince sitting on Pixiu's back waved his hand,

road:

"Farewell, beast."

...

Emperor, go back to your Luanjia.

The team also went north.

After crossing the Bian River,

Eunuch Wei, who was serving the review papers with tea, put down the tea silently and took a step forward.

And at this time,

A plump woman in white came in and knelt down to salute.

Behind the woman stood a red-robed eunuch, who seemed to be accompanying him, but also seemed to be in custody. The little eunuch who was once a young eunuch is not young anymore.

The emperor put down the pen in his hand, and asked while pinching his slightly sore wrist:

"You're not in the Beastmaster Prison to raise Pixiu for me, so why do you have to travel all the way here?"

There was a smile on the corner of the woman's mouth, and in an instant, the wind and beauty flowed out, enough to brighten the spring.

"His Majesty,

The brave statue appeared in front of Minnv and told Minnv a way. "

"Oh, method? Can this method breed more Pixiu?"

The woman in white shook her head,

At this moment, all the charm and amorous feelings on the face are gone,

immediately,

what she said,

Let the atmosphere in Luangjia,

In an instant into a terrible freezing point:

"one,

It is a way to let the regent take it for granted. "
