The first year of Xinghe.

In March, when the newly sprouted weeds in the corner of the wall were still covered with frost, and it was still dark, the lights were lit up in the mansion of the Great Sima, and the servants in a hurry ran forward and backward with torches. Outside the gate of the mansion, the high carriage of the imperial horse has been put on the chewing head, the coachman has thick eye circles, and the chariot is flanked by Yan Zhao warriors who are holding fire and sharpness.

Yan Zhao Warrior, no, not by that name. Since their lord became the Grand Sima of the Imperial Court, the Yan Zhao warriors were also changed to the Right Yu Lin Warriors, opposite the Left Yu Lin Lang who was guarding the emperor's side. Now their armor is also new, in the past, the Chixuan big armor was tied with two feathers on the back, tied to wipe the forehead and wore a crown or an iron hood, and crossed a black draped war horse, which was extremely majestic.

The change to the right feather forest is not only in the service, now the right feather forest is the same as the left feather forest, both belong to the Lang Wei system, and each post is a three-hundred-stone lang official. As for their leader, the right feather Lin Zhonglang general Dian Wei is the real power of two thousand stones. Although the official position of Dianwei has not changed, the status of the samurai and the rank of the warrior have been greatly improved.

The biggest change is that the Hayashi Samurai are also inherited, and when they die, their children will be supported by the imperial court, learn to fight and guard, and become the new Hamurai. What's more, there is another tradition of Yan Zhao warriors that is difficult for Yu Linlang to achieve, and the middle and lower level generals in the Yan army, except for Black Mountain, Baibo, Wuhuan, and Xianbei, seventy percent of them are from Yan Zhao warriors.

These people are most assured, their mission at the beginning of the army is to protect Yanbei. After they made meritorious contributions, they were transferred to various generals as generals, military marquises, and even military horses, and they still had direct contact with Yanbei, which could largely avoid the accident that the entire army would defect after the main general rebelled.

The soldiers and horses are in the hands of Yanbei and the generals, but in the final analysis, they are still in the hands of middle and lower-level military attachés.

After using the morning food, Yan Bei stood in the hall with open arms in a thick robe with a closed crotch, and several maids served him up and down to put on a thick brocade robe and a delicate red carved tiger and leopard armor, and then with a jade purple ring, Zhen Jiang gently straightened the forehead of the carved tiger and the dragon crest, and sorted out the slightly inappropriate short placket on the armor, and then put on a long coat of black and bright mink fur for him, and said softly: "Husband, it's time to go to court." ”

"Go to court!"

In the Yedu Palace, with the red sun slowly rising on the eaves of the palace, the hundred officials quickly climbed the nine-fold stone steps. The vigorous and powerful voice of the young Yulin was invigorating, and the fast-paced atmosphere in the entire Yedu court also made the former ministers of the Luoyang and Chang'an courts miserable.

Yang Biao looked at the Yulin Tiger Ben standing in the palace and the figure standing in front of the hundred officials and ministers, sighed quietly, and struggled to step up the stairs.

They're too young, they're all too young.

Everything in Yedu seems to be so fast, so fast that the court has no time to react, which makes it difficult for the courtiers to get used to and difficult to bear.

In February, Goguryeo sent an envoy to ask the emperor of the Han Dynasty to send troops to help them resist the attack of the Buyeo state, and the fast horse ran for thirteen days before entering the Yedu from Liaodong, and the great Sima entered the palace late at night for only a moment, and the attendant military attache ran back with the edict of Lelang Taishou and Liaodong Taishou Sima Lang to help Goguryeo Yufuyu, and the court ran back as if nothing had happened.

The hundred officials and ministers received the news from the upper court last night, and they inquired about the reason well-informed, and without knowing anything, the battle of Goguryeo was won, and the Buyeo people withdrew their troops from the northern frontier of Goguryeo. This is when they just knew that the imperial court had received Dongyi's request for help a month and a half ago, and when they knew, Da Sima asked them to discuss the rewards for Liaodong Taishou and Lelang Taishou.

A group of ministers with gold seals and purple ribbons and silver seals and blue ribbons are used to do this?

"Princes, please discuss it, I have seen their political achievements, Sima Boda was the crown of Youzhou last year, and the second is the second with his son."

Liu Ai was in the middle of the service, but after the emperor asked, the officials and ministers were silent, and then looked at Yanbei on the side and asked, "Da Sima, how do you think they should be rewarded for their prestige outside the territory?" ”

Yan Bei stood at the head of the hundred officials, and saw that the ministers had nothing to say, so he slowly raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Buyeo State has 80,000 armor, which is slightly weaker than Goguryeo, but now Goguryeo pays tribute to my Han every year, so that the national strength has decreased slightly, and our Han army helped Goguryeo to win, which is the proper righteousness." Therefore, the minister thought that there was nothing to be rewarded. ”

Although it was an answer to the emperor, it was also to explain the combat power of the Dongyi countries to the hundred officials. With the death of Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun and others, today's important ministers of the imperial court do not know much about foreign countries. If you insist on saying it, it is nothing more than knowing some of the situation of Xiqiang and Xianbei, but not much about the east.

In fact, it is not only the hundred officials of the imperial court who are uncomfortable, but Yan Bei and his subordinates are not comfortable in today's imperial court. After the freshness of being in charge of the court at the beginning, the feeling that the court now brings to Yanbei is mostly boring and boring, and sometimes even makes him feel that he is more restrained.

"The minister's meaning, there is no need to reward the officials, each of them will be rewarded with five hundred fine silks and two Xianbei war horses. However, it is necessary to send envoys from the DPRK and China to comfort the soldiers, and the bereavement benefits for the dead and wounded must be faithfully distributed to their hands, so that they can be used for the livelihood of orphans and widows. Yan Bei arched his hand and said thoughtfully: "Let the soldiers not need to worry about what is behind them, the court will only fight hard to win when they need to fight...... Do you have any objections? ”

The hundred officials couldn't say anything, and the reward mentioned by Yanbei was not too much at all, but it was precisely because Yanbei did not leak that it made people's hearts even more uncomfortable. It's not that the hundred officials think that Yanbei is wrong, they all came out of the scholar clan, and they have received official education since childhood, and they can be said to be far superior to Yanbei's early subordinates in terms of right and wrong, and there are few people who have nothing to do.

But Yan Bei's proposal of a watertight reward from the perspective of the head of a hundred officials just made them feel that they had missed 'justice'. Just like in the past, when Li Dao Guo Yan was there, he always made greedy and shameless demands in the court, and at that time, all the officials opposed it, and they were all heroes!

What now? You can't oppose Yanbei because he's right. doesn't object, and thinks that Yanbei is like a powerful minister, and all matters inside and outside the palace are out of his mouth, which is really not good.

"Then, according to Da Sima's wishes, send an envoy to Youdong." The emperor said this, with a smug look on his face, and then asked, "Do you still have something to do?" ”

"The minister has something to do!"

"The minister has something to do!"

At the same time that Yanbei spoke, Zhong Xuan, who was in the back, also came out at the same time, and when he saw Yanbei opening, Zhong Xuan arched his hand with a calm expression: "Please Da Sima play first." ”

"There are two things that the minister wants to play, one of which is to set up a school temple, please look at it Your Majesty." Yan Bei presented the book from his bosom and was taken by the emperor's attendants, glanced back at Zhong Xuan, and then said: "The second thing, the minister is Zhong Xuan in the imperial history, his person is bold and loyal, and he should be Guangluxun!" ”
