The exchange with Wang Jun did not last long. It was so late at night and the weather was cold and we were so tired. What could we talk about? In the obviously awkward atmosphere, there was no further exchange on the situation of the city gate, let alone the late arrival. After just a brief exchange of greetings, Wang Jun was asked to go down to rest. To show mercy, he was allowed to stay overnight and sent someone to take care of him.
After Wang Jun stepped back, Liu Chengyou's easy-going attitude finally dissipated. He frowned and leaned on his seat, thinking uneasily. The gaze in his eyes seemed to become much sharper under the dim light.
After just a brief conversation, Wang Jun gave Liu Chengyou a very bad impression. In particular, he seemed surprised that Liu Chengyou personally conquered Li Shouzhen and successfully put down the rebellion. He also joked that he was ready to bring Fengxiang's troops to the east to help in the battle. ...
"Guan family." Zhang Dejun walked forward with slow steps and asked softly: "Do you want to go to bed?"
"How could a person change so much in just half a year?" Liu Chengyou looked toward Zhang Dejun, seeming to be murmuring or asking him, his voice was very low.
Follow the public account: Book Friends Base Camp, follow and you will receive cash and coins!
Zhang Dejun was stunned and asked carefully: "What did the officials say?"
"Wang Xiufeng has always been talented. Although he was a little self-satisfied and arrogant at the beginning, he is not so arrogant. In front of me, he is quite relaxed..." Liu Chengyou said calmly: "Jingyuan, Xiao In the three festivals of Yanzhou and Yanzhou, upon hearing my edict, they all rushed over with surrender. Fengxiang is adjacent to Jingyuan, and Wang Jun is older than Shi Gong. Shi Gong has already arrived, so why is Wang Jun so late? Unexpectedly ?Lu Yao? Or are you lazy? Humph——"
A cold snort made Zhang Dejun tremble. Although this eunuch was young, he was already the eunuch who had served Liu Chengyou the longest. He had good eyesight and a very flexible mind. He listened to the conversation between the monarch and his minister just now. In my ears, at this moment, I can of course sense a little bit of Liu Chengyou's anger.
"Tell me about it!" Liu Chengyou was obviously a little depressed and said to Zhang Dejun casually.
"My slaves dare not say more, let alone make unreasonable remarks about the ministers," Zhang Dejun said.
"I let you say it!" Liu Chengyou was angry.
Seeing this, Zhang Dejun replied very awkwardly: "The king sent the army to defeat the Shu bandits in front of the king, which shocked the western border. He was also appointed by the officials as Fengxiang Jiedu and granted authority. The spring breeze is proud and the attitude is right. High-spirited..."
"Bullshit!" Liu Chengyou suddenly swore: "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, why should you be proud? Ah? Why don't you just say that he is proud of his favor!"
Zhang Dejun was startled, clasped his hands, and bent even lower, looking particularly frightened. Even though he was in awe, the eunuch couldn't help but murmur in his heart. Since the officials knew clearly, why did they still make things difficult for him? A chamberlain judged. At the same time, he also behaved more cautiously. The emperor has always been serious, but this time he even said such vulgar words, which shows the anger in his heart.
"If what I say tonight is spread, be careful with your head!" After a moment of silence, and his mood calming down a little, Liu Chengyou said indifferently.
"This slave didn't hear anything." Facing Liu Chengyou's indifferent gaze, Zhang Dejun's handsome face suddenly turned pale, and he fell to his knees, opening his eyes and telling lies.
"Also, do your job well, keep your mouth shut, and don't talk nonsense about ministers." Liu Chengyou said again.
"I don't dare!" Zhang Dejun responded immediately.
Seeing his tense face, which clearly showed a hint of grievance, Liu Chengyou said calmly: "From today on, you will be the leader among my servants."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hearing this, Zhang Dejun was overjoyed and thanked him, forgetting all his grievances.
Wrapped in robes, he slowly returned to the couch, huddled under the quilt, and sighed quietly: "What a pity..."
Wang Jun is indeed a talented person. At the beginning of the founding of the country, among the officials of Liu Han, there were only a few who were close to Liu Chengyou. Therefore, Liu Chengyou has always valued him very much.
As for Wang Jun, he has made great contributions to the country. Liu Chengyou also loves talents and relies on them. At the beginning of the year, the Shu army invaded and sent his generals as commanders. Wang Jun did not disappoint him. He was appointed as Fengxiang Jiedu. , in fact, he almost handed over all the imperial equipment in the western border to him. Although it sounds a bit hypocritical, Liu Chengyou wanted to make the best of Wang Jun's talents, and he had a strong "entrustment" in placing him in Guanzhong.
However, just after Zhen Fengxiang, Wang Jun became a little distracted. Formerly a central minister, he was trusted by the emperor, and with the great power of the victory at Jifeng Mountain, Wang Jun was able to live up to his word in his duties as a governor. Follow along, no one dares to disobey.
In daily correspondence, he often talks arrogantly and is rude to the surrounding state officials. Whenever he travels, he will make a big fanfare, state soldiers will clear the way, and horse troops will accompany him. When he patrols and governs the lower states and counties, he often forces the officials and people in charge to exhaust their wealth. He would disturb the people if he treated him with courtesy. He would often tell people how he was doing when he was in Tokyo, what his relationship with the emperor was like, and how Liu Chengyou would betray his face...
Of course, Wang Jun did not do all bad things. He did a very good job in suppressing the forces of Hou Shu. However, during the "honeymoon period" of the two countries, several times of provoking trouble in Longshang was not conducive to the two countries. "diplomatic relations" between countries.
Of course, Liu Chengyou had heard about what Wang Jun had done. Although he was dissatisfied, he only thought that he was arrogant. After all, Wang Jun had always had a good impression on him. But now that he had personally contacted him, he understood that what he had done in the previous place was The report was not exaggerated.
Changes in people are sometimes really unpredictable.
...
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Liu Chengyou held a military parade at the camp outside Yongji City. Guanyou Jiedu, officials who responded to the imperial edict, and Xiang Wang were able to parade together, which demonstrated the power of the Forbidden Army and flexed their muscles. .
This was a show of intimidation. Liu Chengyou believed that as long as the attendees spread the word about the grand occasion, the military power of the Han Dynasty would be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Afterwards, the three armies were rewarded again to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with the officers and men. The atmosphere was very good. At the same time, a large banquet was held in the camp to entertain the various military governors of Guanyou and the senior generals who accompanied the army and the officers who had made meritorious service in the battle. Let's drink together and admire the moon.
In August, when he was in Yongji City, Liu Chengyou started to carry out the last urgent matters before his return. He made a major adjustment to the towns in Guanyou. This is why he stayed in the river and patiently waited for the festivals to pay homage. .
First of all, in Hezhong Prefecture, which was the place where the rebellion was launched, Liu Chengyou no longer appointed Jiedu envoys. Instead, Hu Yanke, the envoy of the North Court of Xuanhui, was informed of the affairs of Hezhong Prefecture and was in charge of the military administration under the prefecture. He also appointed Zhou Hui, the commander of the Xiaodi Army Command, to disband the army. He was responsible for the military affairs in Hezhong. Hu Yanke was entrusted with important posts, while Zhou Hui was demoted. At the same time, a certain check and balance could be achieved between the two. This can barely be regarded as a preliminary attempt to "separate military and political affairs."
As for Hua and Tongzhou, similar arrangements were made. The imperial court sent officials to inform the state affairs. In terms of military affairs, Wu Qianyu, the commander of the right wing of the Protector of the Holy Land, was the patrol envoy of Hua and Tong.
Because of his old age, Bai Wenke was transferred back to Tokyo to succeed Hu Yanke as the envoy of the North Academy of Xuanhui. His brother-in-law Song Yanwo was again given the important task of Liu Chengyou and moved to Jingzhao to serve as the envoy of the Yongxing Army.
Yao Yuanfu moved to the town of Yanzhou and was granted the title of "Bao Dajie Du", as well as a tutor, clothing and horses. Zhang Yanchao moved to Jinzhou and was granted the title of "Jianxiong Army Jiedu". The Lord remained the same, but because of his lameness, Liu Chengyou gave him a special Wang Yan then moved to the town of Pizhou, where he taught the Jingnan Army Jiedu, added Sikong, and gave him weapons, coins, and pommel horses.
Wang Jun was replaced by Liu Chengyou without hesitation, and Zhao Hui moved the town to him. Liu Chengyou was not sure if Wang Jun was left in his place again.
Of course, Liu Chengyou still chose to be patient with Wang Jun. Even though he was arrogant, he had not done anything serious. He had made great contributions to the country, Liu Chengyou had meritorious service to him, and he was his "old minister". Even if he was shown to others, it would not matter. He had to perform well in front of the stage. Taking into account his mood, Liu Chengyou promoted him to deputy privy envoy and made him the Duke of Guangping County. He kept him by his side and let him jump around, but he was under control.
Liu Chengyou originally planned to leave the position of deputy privy envoy to Wei Renpu. On the other hand, the Privy Council has been controlled by Guo Wei for a long time, and Wei Renpu does not like to fight for power. Guo Wei's influence is a bit too great. With Wang Jun's talent and temperament, By entering the Privy Council, Liu Chengyou can continue to strengthen the power of the Privy Council and restrain Guo Wei.
This is inevitable. Today's Wang Jun is difficult to get along with, even if he had a good relationship with Guo Wei before. Times have changed, and when it comes to power, there is a high possibility that the two will turn against each other. Regarding these, Liu Chengyou has considered very clear.
As for Shaanzhou, after Zhao Hui left, Liu Chengyou replaced him with Liu Ci, the commander of the Guangrui capital, as the military governor, which was regarded as a reward for his merit.
In this process, Zhou Hui, Wu Qianyu, Liu Ci and other veterans of the Forbidden Army were naturally placed in local positions by Liu Chengyou. While strengthening local control, it also further reduced the influence of the veterans on the Forbidden Army and strengthened Liu Chengyou's control to facilitate the reforms he wants to make.
The only two things that remained unchanged were Shi Kuangyi of Jingyuan and Gao Yunquan of Yanzhou. However, Liu Chengyou sent some horse-raising generals to Jingyuan, and set up an oil envoy in Yanzhou to specialize in collecting fierce oil and be responsible for it. Transfer to Tokyo.
Liu Chengyou's series of edicts almost gave the entire Guanzhong and part of Hedong a major "renovation". It is impossible to convince everyone, but Liu Chengyou used this trend very cleverly and could relatively easily convince Guanzhong. You Zhu Jiedu. In fact, this was one of the reasons why Liu Chengyou chose to fight in person. Most of these ideas had already been planned in Liu Chengyou's mind.
After such adjustments, the imperial court's influence and control over Guanyou increased dramatically.
