Chapter 335: Holding the Bull's Ear
Now that the throne of the Great Jin Dynasty has been settled, the abolition of the crown prince is very crucial, because when the new emperor was canonized as the crown prince, the first emperor himself was gone!
Even in Changle Palace, Zhang Qu and Chen Ju opened the box in front of the civil and military officials and took out the edict of the first emperor, but everyone knows that it is too easy for this thing to be faked, and even now, some not very good rumors have begun to circulate in the capital.
It is conceivable that if the abolished prince is used by someone with a heart, he can use the identity of the abolished prince to easily cause trouble.
Originally, there was nothing to do, after all, Chengde was once regarded as a four-sea level, even if there was a heart and a reputation, there were not too many people who had the ability to give birth to chaos, but it was a coincidence that Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, was the person with the most capable ability to give birth to chaos today.
There are at least more than 100,000 soldiers in the Pingnan Army, if these people rebel in the name of abolishing the crown prince, then this will be the biggest hidden danger of the new dynasty, there is no one!
Li Xin tightened, and after being silent for a while, he asked, "Your Majesty confirms that the abolished prince is in the Pingnan Hou Mansion?" ”
The new emperor blushed, shook his head, and said, "I ...... Up in the air. ”
"According to the investigation of Tianmu Prison, the eldest brother once appeared at the back door of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, but it was a few days ago, and the eldest brother is not in the Pingnan Hou Mansion now, and I don't know now."
"However, the people of Tianmu Prison have already watched the Pingnan Hou Mansion to death, at least in the past two days, no one has entered or left the Pingnan Hou Mansion."
Speaking of this, the new monarch glanced at Li Xin deeply and said: "Brother Xin, eldest brother, he can live or not be imprisoned by me, but he must not fall into the hands of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, let alone go to southern Xinjiang, you should also understand this in your heart." ”
Li Xin nodded and said, "The minister understands." ”
The Son of Heaven took a deep breath and said, "So, it's up to you to take someone to see Li Shen, ask him to hand over the eldest brother, and tell him that as long as he hands over the eldest brother, don't mention any conditions." ”
Li Xin blinked and asked, "What if he wants to leave the capital?" ”
The new emperor was silent for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "As long as he can hand over the eldest brother, I can allow him to leave the capital!" ”
"Okay."
Li Xin bowed his head and said, "The minister will take someone to the Pingnan Hou Mansion to ask for someone." ”
The new emperor took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "I don't worry about who this matter is going to do, I can only entrust it to you, Brother Xin, don't worry too much." ”
Li Xin smiled,
"How dare the minister be careful."
With that, Li Xin got up and said goodbye.
The Son of Heaven waved his hand: "Xiao Zheng, send one to Marquis Li for me." ”
"Yes."
Xiao Zheng, who was a young eunuch in the inner chamberlain, sent Li Xin all the way to the gate of Yong'anmen, and after leaving Yong'anmen, Li Xin did not immediately go to Pingnanhou's Mansion, but got on his horse and walked towards Liushufang.
Speaking of Li Xin's horse, it is worth mentioning that in the last palace change, Li Xin's dark cloud horse contributed a lot, rushed into the crowd and broke up the formation of the internal guard, but the dark cloud horse was also seriously injured because of this, although he saved his life, but only kept his life.
Now Li Xin's mount is a big green horse, which was bought on Xishi Street again, although it can be regarded as a good horse for Ye Sheng, but compared to the dark cloud horse of the divine horse, it is not half a star worse.
Willow Square is near Yongle Fang, riding a horse and a pillar of incense kung fu arrived, Li Xin quickly found the sea view building of Willow Square, bolted the horse downstairs, and walked up the stairs.
There was a little servant to guide Li Xin, all the way to a private room on the second floor of the Guanhai Building.
At this time, it was around the time of Shen in the afternoon, and it was not at the meal, and the customers of Guanhailou were sparse, but it also looked clean.
After entering the private room, Ye Ling and Hou Jingde were all present.
Li Xin stepped in and said to the two people, "Two brothers." ”
The two of them also got up to greet each other, smiled at Li Xin and said, "Brother Li is here." ”
The three of them sat down together, Li Xin glanced around at the two marquis, picked up his wine glass and smiled at the two people: "Two brothers, this is the first private gathering of the three of us, and it is also the last, brothers toast you." ”
Ye Lan also picked up the wine glass and said with emotion: "It is indeed the last private gathering." ”
Hou Jingde was still confused, and scratched his head: "Why can't I understand what the two of you said?" ”
Li Xin smiled but did not speak.
Ye Sishao of Chen Guogong's Mansion picked up his wine glass and smiled at Hou Jingde: "The three of us get together, we can make a palace change, we can make a second palace change, and now Your Majesty has ascended the throne and become the Son of Heaven, if we get together privately, he will be foolish." ”
Li Xin also took a sip of wine and said slowly: "If I guessed correctly, in a few days, Your Majesty will order to reduce the number of private troops in the Jingzhong General's Sect, and the Ye family and the Pingnan Hou Mansion will bear the brunt, Brother Ye must remember and fully cooperate with His Highness, otherwise it will be unpleasant." ”
The two guards together are only 6,000 people, and these generals in the capital, each household has hundreds of thousands of private soldiers, these private soldiers gathered together, you can set off another palace change, the new emperor can not let this situation repeat, so the reduction of the private soldiers of the general gate will be the first major thing the new emperor will do after ascending the throne.
Ye Lan smiled: "My father has already thought of this, yesterday he disbanded the private soldiers in the family, leaving only one or two hundred people to take care of the family, and the rest of the people were either sent back to their hometowns or sent to my eldest brother." ”
Li Xin clapped his hands: "Grandpa Ye has a good eye." ”
The three of them gossiped, and Li Xin suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Lan and asked, "Brother Ye, what position have you been sealed?" ”
All three of them have been made marquis, but their official positions are different.
Ye Lan said indifferently: "Deputy General of the Zhenbei Army, after the New Year, I will pack up the east and west and go north to help the eldest brother guard the Jimen Gate." ”
Li Xin smiled: "It's a good errand, Ye Shaobao is old, and the Zhenbei Army is estimated to be handed over to Brother Ye to take care of." ”
Ye Lan shook his head: "It's just to inherit the family business." ”
Li Xin turned his head to look at Hou Jingde and asked, "Brother Hou, what about you?" ”
"Forbidden Army."
Hou Jingde chewed a piece of meat and said sullenly: "Your Majesty transferred me to serve under the commander of the plant, I only know that it is a third-grade general, and the specific position will go to the forbidden army, and wait for the commander to decide." ”
Li Xinxin sighed.
This is the rhythm of asking Hou Jingde to take the place of Xuan Tong in charge of the forbidden army, but it is not surprising to think about it, among the three people, Li Xin is not yet twenty years old, Ye Lan is only in his early thirties, only Hou Jingde is alone, he is already over the age of confusion, and he is a Jiangmen who is rooted in Miaohong, so it is very suitable to replace the new emperor to hold the sword.
Li Xin stroked his palm and said: "Among the three of us, Brother Hou is in the best position, as long as Brother Hou can sit firmly in the position of the forbidden army, Your Majesty is in one day, and Brother Hou is in one day." ”
Ye Lan also had some envy in his eyes.
"Brother Hou will be the Pei Saburo of the new dynasty in the future."
Hou Jingde laughed twice, a little embarrassed, he looked up at Li Xin and asked, "Brother Li, you have the most credit, where did Your Majesty arrange for you to do things?" ”
Li Xin smiled: "The right squire of the military department, and the general of Yulin Zhonglang." ”
Ye Lan sighed faintly: "In a few days, Yu Linwei will also be reduced, at least it will be decentralized, Your Majesty will not tolerate the existence of such a Yu Linwei anymore." ”
Yu Linwei stormed the palace gate, although it was a great hero for the new emperor, but it was a thief for the imperial power, and now that the new emperor had done the position of the Son of Heaven, he would naturally consider the things that the Son of Heaven should consider.
Li Xin smiled.
"Expected, come, drink."
Ye Lan picked up his wine glass and toasted Li Xin.
"Brother Li, the court is more dangerous than the battlefield, you have to take care."
Hou Jingde also stood up and gave Li Xin a glass.
"Brother Li is not an ordinary person, in the future, our brothers from Yulinwei will rely on you Brother Li to hold the bull's ear."
Li Xin also stood up, picked up his wine glass, and spoke sincerely.
"The court is dangerous, let's support each other."
