Although Yuan Bolang still wanted to persist, the people behind him had chosen to compromise. The new official took office for three fires, and now the new emperor ascended the throne was even bigger, and no one wanted to be affected by this fire. The subsequent agreement was meaningless, and it was only finalized in some details. The ministers compromised their attitudes, but their positions still would not change, and they would also settle with Liu Yu's Liangzi.

Liu Yu was the one who organized the business department. Because of this incident in the court, Yuan Bolang didn't even want to mention the matter of helper, meaning that Liu Yu would solve it by himself.

Originally, Liu Yu planned to propose to let the vassal kings enter Chang'an City to congratulate him at the court meeting, but when he thought that this matter was related to etiquette, it was not appropriate for him to make it. After the court discussion was disbanded, he mentioned to Yuan Bolang. Yuan Bolang was annoyed by the business department affairs, and he couldn't help but snorted coldly when he heard this: "I have my own plans for these things, and there is no need for Commander Liu to worry about."

"Master, it seems you offended a lot of people."

In the back hall of Liutai Yamen, Su Yan looked at Liu Yu with a somewhat apologetic gaze and said.

"If they move their cake, they can't stop them from holding grudges. The people from the Ministry of War will come to discuss matters and prepare for it."

"Master, what is a cake?"

The cake was still from the Western world, and it had not been introduced to Middle-earth yet. Liu Yu did not want to say nonsense to Su Yan, and handed Su Yan the border report sent from the Imperial Guard and said, "This is the memorial of the Marquis of Dingguo, and he still insisted on going to war."

Su Yan felt a headache after reading the text on the memorial. Liu Yu had said before that the court was short of money and food for disaster relief, let alone fighting the Turks. Before, Liu Zhao, the Marquis of Dingguo, "doing within his ability", it seemed that Liu Zhao didn't pay much attention to the meaning, but just repeatedly urged food and salary.

"Master, why don't you... write a letter to persuade the Marquis of Dingguo?" Su Yan asked tentatively.

"When did he hear his son's opinion? The military affairs discussed today do not include border wars, but mainly the garrison in Chang'an City. Don't be too inclined to me in terms of attitude, and then talk until the discussion comes to an end."

Soon, the new Minister of War Zheng Chang came with the people from the Ministry of War. Because military affairs and political affairs were separated, they would also discuss separately in the court discussion. In the past, the political and military affairs were carried by the right minister, but now Yuan Bolang is only responsible for government affairs, and Liu Yu has controlled the military power of Chang'an, so Yuan Bolang could not intervene. For a long time when the new emperor ascended the throne, the military affairs meetings were chaired by Liu Yulai, and neither Su Bi nor Yuan Bolang would attend.

In fact, there was not much change in the defense of Chang'an City. It was just that the orthodox leader of the Dongshui Camp was removed from his post because of his collusion with the King of Jin. Because Sima Dongshu defended the trough and made contributions in the rectification of chaos, the Ministry of War proposed that Dongshu take over as the orthodox leader of the Dongshui Camp.

This proposal was also recognized by Liu Yu. If it weren't for Dong Shu, Chang'an City would have been inseparable from war, and if war broke out, the disaster would be very bad.

Originally, Sima of the Guagu was only at the level of deputy general in the camp. He was promoted to the chief general at one time and had to command the entire army. Liu Yu was afraid that Dong Shu would not be able to take responsibility, so he proposed to transfer personnel from the Imperial Guard to help him become deputy general. In this way, Liu Yu could place his confidants around Dong Shu, assist and supervise on the other hand, and strengthen Liu Yu's control over the Chang'an garrison.

Although everyone in the Ministry of War knew that Liu Yu was suspected of abusing power, the new emperor trusted him and had no choice but to retain his opinions.

The second proposal was proposed by Liu Yu, who wanted to integrate the six defense departments in the city and establish the General Defense Department.

The internal defense department of Chang'an City was originally worried that if it was integrated, it would form a force that restricted the Imperial Guard and formed a situation of competing with each other. Now Liu Yu proposed to establish the General Defense Department, and the Ministry of War had many opinions, believing that this would be detrimental to the garrison of Chang'an City.

Liu Yu was in the face of strengthening control. The defense in the city can be said to be a mess. The quality of the troops in the Six Defense Department was not uniform, and there was no unified allocation. On the one hand, Liu Yu wanted to integrate them, but more importantly, he wanted to firmly grasp the defense in the city in his own hands. Now, the emperor Su Yan's power is very weak in all aspects, and it depends entirely on the support of Liu Yu and Su Bi. After all, Liu Yu and Su Bi's power is limited. Now Liu Yu is more afraid of the rise of the right prime minister. There is also the threat of Qian Hui and the King of Chu to the new throne.

Zheng Chang still had an objection. Liu Yu said: "Shu Zheng, the General Defense Office of the City is just a temporary measure. When the situation in Chang'an City is settled in the next year, the General Defense Office of the General Defense Office will be removed, and there will be no situation in the defense of Chang'an City."

Zheng Chang asked, "Who do you mean, vanguard general, who is the president of the General Defense Department?"

The relationship between Liu Yu and Li Mi, the commander of the Yunanmen Defense Department, was not a secret in the Ministry of War. In order not to arouse criticism from Zheng Chang and the people in the Ministry of War for his abusing power, and to balance his power, Liu Yu said: "It is better to have no presidential commander in the General Defense Department, but only two commanders, which will restrain each other. The first commander, this general proposed that Hu Chaozhong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, be the role of the other commander, and the other commander should choose one of the six commanders in the original Six Defense Department."

Liu Yu's proposal balanced the power of the General Defense Department's yamen, making the Ministry of War think that it has half the control of the General Defense Department. Liu Yu did not say that the General Defense Department would be captured at once, but only said that another commander would choose the best among the six commanders. This reduced the opposition from Zheng Chang and others a lot. After the agreement, the General Defense Department's yamen, which was originally difficult to accomplish, also decided on this.

People in the Ministry of War thought that the Internal Defense Department had controlled most of the power, but Liu Yu was obviously playing "smart". Liu Yu proposed to use Hu Chaozhong, the Minister of the Ministry of War as one of the commanders of the General Defense Department. It seemed that he would hand over the power to the Ministry of War, but Hu Chaozhong was Hu Xuan's father. Because Hu Xuan is not exposed now, the people in the Ministry of War have no way to know this relationship, and only the parties involved know it. "Admission to the merit" sounds nice, but who is the examiner, and it is not Liu Yu? It creates an illusion of fair competition, and the power is still in the hands of Liu Yu. People who come to the Ministry of War will reminisce about it in the future, and it is a foregone conclusion.

After the matter of the General Defense Department was negotiated, Liu Yu proposed the recruitment matter again.

Liu Yu had the idea of ​​recruiting troops because of Qu Zhu's previous words. Qu Zhu said that now there are severe droughts outside Chang'an City, and as long as you give a bite of food in the severely affected areas, the victims would even sell their sons. Liu Yu immediately remembered the recruitment of troops in Guanzhong area. First, the border war caused more than half of the garrison troops and regiment training around Chang'an City to be transferred, and the soldiers were nervous. Moreover, the money and food for disaster relief could not be raised for idle people. Liu Yu also wanted to cultivate an army that was completely loyal to him.

The recruitment of troops is almost every year, and the Ministry of War has no objection. It is just that there are some opinions on the composition of this new army. Zheng Chang believes that it is not appropriate to dispatch the troops in the army, and it is more suitable for people from the Dongshui Camp and Nandaying to recruit troops on their own to make up for the quota for the army. Liu Yu advocated that the new army must be independent and cannot use inferior products as good as the combat effectiveness of the Nandaying and Dongshui Camp.

Now the major forces in Chang'an City are reshuffled. As long as they are not under the command of the Fourth Princess, most court officials choose to stand on the side of the right prime minister Yuan Bolang, and Zheng Chang is one of them. After hearing Liu Yu's proposal, he asked with a doubt: "Is the vanguard general going to build a new army? There are Nandaying and Dongshuiying around Chang'an City. Isn't it enough to guard Chang'an City?"

"The general's intention is not to establish an army, but to establish a local regiment training, gather in wartime, and to organize slack training every year, all regulations are the same as regiment training. The soldiers are not stationed in the army for a very long time," Liu Yu explained.

When Zheng Chang heard that it was a group training, he felt that it was a bit of a big deal. He thought that Liu Yu wanted to build a "Liu Family Army". Since it was just a group training, he didn't want to make a grudge with Liu Yu. After all, Liu Yu is very powerful now. He now has to stand in agreement with Yuan Bolang and maintain a peaceful relationship with Liu Yu, otherwise both sides will make him lose his position.

The issue of military expansion was agreed, and there was another dispute over the head of the new army. Zheng Chang believed that since it was a recruitment, the people from the Ministry of War should be responsible, while Liu Yu wanted Qi Fang and Zhang Wuzhu to be responsible for the establishment and training of this new army.

The two major battalions outside Chang'an City were mixed up and wanted to promote two people with no prestige to coordinate the entire army. They could not convince the public and provide many obstacles, but also make others think that Liu Yu was abusing his power. And Liu Yu could call only Qi Fang and Zhang Wuzhu outside Chang'an City. They formed a new army. This was a hard work. The combat effectiveness of the new army itself was relatively weak, so it would not arouse too much opposition from the right prime minister.

"The recruitment should be carried out together with disaster relief." Liu Yu finally said, "Anyone who is selected for the new army will not only provide food for the court, but also provide food for the family members. It will have more food for the food for ordinary disaster victims. In this way, more people will join the army."

The people from the Ministry of War did not issue any more objections to this issue, and the military meeting ended with Liu Yu's solo show.

…………

After the Korean negotiations ended, Liu Yu was not only responsible for the garrison control in Chang'an City, but also for the establishment of the commerce department in government affairs. In the afternoon, Liu Yu went to see Han Sheng and wanted to ask his old friend for help.

Han Sheng was still content with ease and did not ask for help, but he gave Liu Yu a suggestion. Since there was no one, he would just ask a merchant to be a helper. Anyway, the Merchant Department was also the businessman in the end.

"If you don't have the right candidate, I can introduce you to a few." Han Sheng said with a smile at the end.

A word reminded Liu Yu that although Liu Yu didn't know many businessmen, he had a very capable big businessman - Sui Yu, the actual power of the Sui family's large and small business.

"Brother Han is really a pity for not being the prime minister." Liu Yu smiled and complimented, "As for the candidates, there is a suitable one, so Brother Han is worried about you."

After seeing Han Sheng in a hurry, Liu Yu rushed to discuss the matter with Sui Yu.

After going to Yuelaiju, my friend told the boss that he had gone to the Forward General's Mansion, and Liu Yubai made a trip.

When he returned home, Xu Xuanzhu was discussing with Sui Yu about buying land. The salary of the court officials was reduced, but the salary of the military general was not deducted. Since Xu Xuanzhu became a housewife, he has been like a landlord. The first thing he did when he got his salary was to turn it into a fixed land property.

The water conservancy around Chang'an City is well developed and is basically not affected by drought. However, due to the impact of the surrounding drought, land prices have also dropped again and again. At such a good opportunity, Xu Xuanzhu hurriedly asked Sui Yu to discuss land purchase.

Seeing Liu Yu, Sui Yu was still as helpless as her little daughter's family. When she heard Liu Yu mention the establishment of the Trade Department, Sui Yu restored the wisdom that a big merchant should have: "General Liu, don't you know that the minor supervisor of the Trade Department decides to pay the amount of money donated?"

Liu Yu nodded and said, "Since you are selling official positions, it's naturally the case."

Sui Yu immediately said: "Is that limited? The minor prison of the Trade Department must be a man?"
Chapter completed!
