If Liu Mingzhi knew the true thoughts of Li Ye sitting on the dragon throne, he would definitely be amazed at how evil this child is.
 The current shortcomings of Dalong Chaotang are just as Li Ye thought, the king is weak and the ministers are strong.
The new king is too young and lacks the qualifications to govern. Most of his ministers are veterans of three or even two dynasties, and their momentum overwhelms the king.
 If things continue like this, some veterans who rely on their qualifications will inevitably look down on Li Ye.
In this way, the court will eventually become dominated by powerful ministers and the king will lose his authority.
 At that time, Li Ye was confronting his emperor and his ministers in the Imperial Study Room, and when he proposed a major change of leadership in the court, Liu Mingzhi had a feeling that Li Ye's growth and progress were a little too fast.
But he didn't expect that Li Ye had such a clear understanding of the situation in the court.
His real intention to change the leadership of the court is not because the civil and military officials are getting old, and he is afraid that no one will be available in the future, which will lead to a crisis of disconnection among the officials in the court.
 The real purpose is that he has felt the pressure from the officials under Longtai.
Nowadays, the qualifications of the officials above the court are so important that even the current emperor has to make compromises on certain things.
On the day of ancestor worship, Liu Mingzhi told Queen Mother Chen Jie and Li Ye's throne in Chen Jie's Yi'an Palace.
 Liu Mingzhi had no intention of deceiving Chen Jie. At present, Li Ye's throne is indeed stable.
 But it is not as stable as Mount Tai.
As long as it is linked to the interests of the courtiers, Li Ye's throne will naturally be safe and sound. But if there is a conflict of interest, what will happen, even Liu Mingzhi does not dare to say easily.
 People's hearts will change, and many things will change that no one can predict.
 Only Li Ye can control this measure.
 Being able to intimidate the court with just one word and forcefully support Li Ye's ascension to the throne against all opinions was also due to the situation that times create heroes.
After all, the capital city was in chaos at that time. He had 300,000 frontier troops and cavalry in hand, and no one dared to compete with him. The six guards of Northern Xinjiang were entrenched in Northern Xinjiang and could not return to Beijing to help. In that situation, what could the officials do if they had objections?
Sample?
 Afraid of the soldiers and horses in your own hands, they have to support you even if they don't support you.
Liu Mingzhi actually knew very well that if all the officials in the palace sincerely supported Li Ye's ascension to the throne, there would be no rumors about Zhao Wang and Li Tao easily seizing the throne.
　　Time has passed and the country has changed, and I have been living in northern Xinjiang for a long time and cannot return to the court. Now, no one can guarantee whether some officials in the court have evil intentions when they see that the new emperor is young.
 Let’s not talk about it remotely, let’s talk about Ren Wenyue taking the opportunity to make money and embezzlement in the name of repairing the imperial mausoleum.
 A large number of officials were involved.
There was no one to guard the court. In just one year, a large number of monsters and monsters began to come out and wander around.
Some veteran ministers themselves are still aware of their nature, but as more and more backward people enter the court, they themselves cannot despise the situation above the court.
If Li Ye wants to truly secure the throne of Dalong, the first thing he needs to do is to get rid of the powerful ministers left behind by the two generations of previous emperors, and gradually replace them with his own trusted followers.
 It happens that Young Master Liu is also one of the powerful officials, and he is one of the best among them.
In this way, Li Ye is destined to embark on a road of competition between imperial power and political power with all the officials in the court.
Li Ye gently rubbed the memorial in his hand with his fingers, and took a gentle breath to stabilize his mind.
 “King side by side!”
 “I’m here!”
“I am still young and incapable of governing. Although I am gradually getting better at government affairs, I really don’t know anything about the art of war.
How about you come and take a look at the pros and cons of your war plans for me?
Looking at the court, the person who knows the most about the enemy forces of Jin and Tunisia is you. Come and help me weigh the chances of winning the Northern Expedition!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the memorial in Li Ye's hand in surprise, and then glanced at Li Ye's expression thoughtfully.
On the one hand, he excluded me from the great cause of the Northern Expedition, and on the other hand, he asked me to refer to the expedition planning. What is your Majesty's intention?
 “King side by side?”
 “Your Majesty, I forgive you, I was distracted.”
 “Come and weigh for me the chances of winning by joining forces to conquer the two countries.”
 “Xiao Dezi, give the fold to King Bingjian.”
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Ye who was about to hand the memorial to Xiao Dezi, and quickly stood up and stood in the center.
 “Your Majesty, please wait!”
Li Ye paused and looked at Liu Mingzhi in astonishment, wondering what he meant.
 Could it be that my uncle was dissatisfied and unwilling to make suggestions for him because he excluded him from the Northern Expedition?
This thought flashed through Li Ye's mind instantly. Li Ye retracted the action of handing over the memorial, the complicated color in his eyes flashed away, and he looked at Liu Mingzhi with doubt.
“But King Bingjian doesn’t want to share my worries?”
“I would never dare to report back to Your Majesty. It is the duty of an minister to eat the emperor’s salary, share the emperor’s worries, and solve the problems for the emperor.
It's just a great cause of the Northern Expedition, which is of great importance. It is related to the great cause of whether our dragon can unify the world. How dare I casually look at the battle plan that all your ministers have painstakingly discussed.
I would like to ask boldly whether the person in charge of the Northern Expedition has made a plan?"
Li Ye was startled, with a slightly unnatural look in his eyes, and nodded slightly to Liu Mingzhi.
 “Already drawn up.”
“Song Aiqing of the Ministry of War, please tell King Bingjian the specific regulations of the people who will lead the Northern Expedition.”
 “Old minister obeys the order.”
Song Yu walked out holding the jade wat, and glanced at Liu Mingzhi on the way. There was a bit of sadness in his eyes, mixed with a bit of unwillingness.
“Your Majesty, the people in charge of this Northern Expedition are Commander-in-Chief Zhongwu Yunyang Yun, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wang Wanmingliang of North Vietnam, and Governor Zhuang Kuang.
Left Captain Yong'an Gong Nangongye, the general of the Pioneer Army, and Gan Liang, the general of the Right Captain's Pioneer Army, waited for Dongfang Ming.
Yun Chong, the general of the left guard cavalry, and Lu Chengjie, the general of the right guard cavalry.
The hussar camp is the Weiwei General Cheng Kai, the Xiaoqi camp is the Weiwei General Ning Chao, and the rear army is the Weiwei General Ning Chao."
Song Yu didn’t have any soldering resistance, so he recited the list of people who were going on this expedition to Young Master Liu.
The more Liu Mingzhi listened, the weirder his face became. In the end, the gloomy look in his eyes flashed away, and he immediately returned to normal. He raised his eyes and glanced at Song Yu who put down the Chaohu. Liu Mingzhi's tone was extremely calm.
"Gone?"
 “All the generals are in it.”
Liu Mingzhi nodded silently and saluted Song Yu.
 “Thank you, Minister of Song Dynasty, for informing me.”
　　"Since the prince is aware of the duties of a lower official, I hope that the king... the lower official... will return to his position as a lower official."
"please!"
Song Yu looked at Liu Mingzhi's slightly changed expression and wanted to say something, but it was early morning and he could only swallow his words.
Liu Mingzhi tried his best to control his expression and reaction, and tightly held the jade tablet in his hand.
In this expedition, the general who was affiliated with the Six Guards of the New Army under his command did not even get a position of real power.
 The best Cheng Kai had was only the general of the Hussars Battalion. The remaining five companies and the generals of the Pioneer Battalion were not obtained. They all accompanied Yunyang, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, to occupy the overall strategic position of the Chinese army.
Duan couldn't bear the blood spilled on the battlefield, Zhou Baoyu was injured by an arrow and suffered a leg injury, and Ye Baotong was blind in his left eye. It was understandable that he didn't get a good position.
Cheng Kai, Ning Chao, and Feng Buer have followed him since then. Each one of them is not a powerful general in the army with outstanding military exploits and great reputation.
Although his qualifications are not as high as those of Zhang Kuangye, Nangong Ye and the other generals of the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang, their military exploits are the same.
Even Zhou Baoyu, Cheng Kaibi, and Lu Chengjie have made more contributions than others.
Although he comes from the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang, his troop formation is on par with these seniors.
 All of them are iron-blooded generals with bravery that no man can match.
 Han Peng, Jiang Lei, Zhu Bolu, Chen Guangwei, Yang Chundong, and Shi Bingguang are all twenty-six generals who are not afraid of the enemy.
This Northern Expedition turned out to be
It was fine that he was excluded, but his eldest brother Song Qing had been with him for many years and made many great contributions to the court.
