Chapter 477: The Imperial Court Comes
Liu Chen nodded, it is a matter of marriage, naturally you can't act hastily, although Liu Yin's father is mourned, but the mother is still there, not to mention that Liu Yin is a person who is filial to his mother, no matter how he says, he has to talk to his mother.
Judging from Liu Yin's attitude towards Xue Wu, this time Liu Yin is by no means as simple as just accepting a concubine, although Liu Yin did not divorce his wife and marry another, but giving Xue Wu at least the status of a flat wife, strictly speaking, a flat wife is also a concubine, but it is very different from the status of ordinary concubines. What's more, Liu Yin's wife is crazy, and many occasions that require her to come forward will inevitably let Xue Wu appear, so Xue Wu's flat wife will be a different kind of flat wife, although her status is not a regular wife, but she is infinitely close to the main wife, whether it is at home or outside the home, her status is unshakable.
"Fifth brother, you came from Chang'an, but you didn't just want to see your brother-in-law, right?" Liu Yin joked.
Of course, Liu Chen didn't come to see Liu Yin's new wife, and even before entering the door, Liu Chen didn't know about the existence of Xue Wu, and he came this time, so naturally he had other things to discuss with Liu Yin.
"As soon as you kid returned to Chang'an, he became the shopkeeper, hid in Baqiao and slept with a woman in his arms, and put all the mess in Chang'an on me, and you didn't ask the foolish brother if I could eat?"
Liu Yin smiled, in this Northern Expedition, Liu Chen was also single, and his wife Cui and three sons stayed in Nanzhong, and now Liu Yin and Xue Wu are both staying and flying, but Liu Chen is alone, no wonder his resentment is so big.
"Why, does the fifth brother miss the fifth sister-in-law too, or the brother will send someone to bring the fifth sister-in-law to you, so that your husband and wife can have a good reunion. How is it? Liu Yin teased.
Just as the two were laughing. The steward hurried to report again: "Master." The messenger sent by the imperial court waited outside the door. ”
Governors? Liu Yin and Liu Chen looked at each other, at this time, the imperial court actually sent a messenger, a bit unexpected by the two, but it is normal to think about it, due to the isolation of Shu and Hanzhong, after Liu Yin entered Longxi, he lost contact with the imperial court. This time the opening of Shuzhong Avenue, from Chang'an to Nanzhong has been all the way unimpeded, before in Hanzhong Yang'anguan, Liu Yin has handed over the seal to the imperial court, the imperial court sent Qin to Chang'an, it is not surprising, but Liu Yin was a little surprised that the imperial court's envoy was so fast, his front foot just returned to Chang'an, Qin sent the back foot to arrive. It's really fast.
Liu Yin and Liu Chen hurriedly dressed up and went to the front hall to greet each other and take a look. He is not an outsider, it is the secretary Ling Hezheng, and he is also an acquaintance.
He Zheng bowed to Liu Chen and Liu Yin very politely, without the arrogance of the minister, and then read out Liu Chan's holy decree. Liu Chan greatly praised Liu Yin's exploits in the holy decree, promoted Liu Yin to the record of Shangshushi, the hussar general and the governor of Yongliang Zhujun, added Xinfeng County as its territory, rewarded 100 catties of gold, 100 pearls, 10,000 pieces of money, and 1,000 horses of brocade. Governor of Guanzhong, the former protector Fu Tong was promoted to the general of the expedition to the north, the left protector Huang Chong was promoted to the general of the expedition to the west, the right protector was named the general of Anxi, and the rear protector Wang Qi was named the general of Anbei. Dozens of people below Zhang Le have been rewarded, but Liu Chen, the king of the northern land of the prison army, is already a prince, and there is no promotion, but his reward specifications are the same as Liu Yin's, and they are also 100 catties of gold, 100 pearls, 1000 horses of brocade forging, and 10,000 pieces of money. Fu Tong and below, there are also rewards, but they are not decreasing in turn.
Even Liu Yin never thought that Liu Chan's reward would be so heavy, which shows how excited Liu Chan was when he heard that Liu Yin had captured Guanlong. Originally, Liu Yin was a plain scholar, a general of Zhenbei, and a marquis of Baling County, but this time he was directly promoted to a record of Shangshu, a hussar general, and a county was sealed to Liu Yin.
Needless to say, Lu Shang Shushi is a person who really holds the real power in the court, Liu Yin used to be a Ping Shang scholar, although he is qualified to participate in Shang Shutai's affairs, but after all, he is a lower level than Lu Shang Shushi.
Needless to say, the hussar general is second only to the rank of the general. Below the generals, first of all, the hussars, chariots, and Wei generals, followed by the front and rear left and right generals, and then the four towns and four marches (according to the official rank of Shu Han, the four towns are higher than the four marches, which is somewhat different from Cao Wei), Liu Yin leapfrogged from the general of the town to the hussar general, almost jumping several levels in a row.
You must know that after the main dynasty, below the general, the highest position is the left and right car cavalry general and Wei general, once served as a hussar general, but also can be traced back to the beginning of the founding of the country, Liu Bei once named Ma Chao as a hussar general, after Ma Chao, this position has been vacant and has not been lightly awarded. This move to Liu Yin as a hussar general shows the emperor's grace.
Liu Yin doesn't care whether he is promoted or not, whether he is a general of Zhenbei or a general of hussars, after all, it is just a false title, and it is not as affordable as the military of Yongliang, the governor of Yongliang. At this moment, Liu Yin is more concerned about the situation in the court of Nanzhong, after all, he has been away from Nanzhong for nearly a year, and there must be great changes in the court.
According to Xun Zheng, the personnel changes on the side of the imperial court are still quite large, the original Shangshutai's Lu Shangshu Dong Ju was reappointed as the Taifu, and Shangshu ordered Fan Jian to be reappointed as the Taifu. Although it is said that the Taifu and the Taifu are also high-ranking officials with more than 2,000 stone in the court, this is a relatively casual position, and they do not participate in the affairs of Shangshutai, and it is obvious that Liu Chan is quite disappointed in them, as an important member of the cabinet, he has never been able to come up with an effective strategy for recovering the country, and it is reasonable that he was deposed.
In the current cabinet, there are a total of three people who record Shangshu, Jiang Wei, Liu Yin and Huo Yi, and Zhang Shao, the former servant, served as Shangshuling this time. Jiang Wei kept his position because of his meritorious service in recovering Chengdu, and Huo Yi was promoted because of his meritorious service in guarding Nanzhong. Since Jiang Wei and Liu Yinju are both leading the troops, only Huo Yi and Zhang Shao are left to take care of Shangshutai.
The once powerful Jingxiang faction gradually declined with the support of Dong Ju and Fan Jian, but compared to the local faction in Yizhou that had been destroyed, the Jingxiang faction was relatively lucky.
Now the political arena of Shu Han seems to have entered a new period, the inherent factional pattern has been completely broken, the old hawkish forces led by the general Jiang Wei and the new forces led by Liu Yin have become the new two poles, although the two are not in the court at the moment, but no one can deny their status, but between the two factions Jianning Taishou Huo Yi and the foreign relative Shangshu Ling Zhang Shao although they are a family of their own, but the influence can not be compared with Jiang and Liu, the Shu Han dynasty has entered a pattern of two strong side by side. (To be continued.) )
