Chapter 99 The Four Kings and Eight Dukes and the Jiedu Envoy System
When the Qing Dynasty was founded, twelve great heroes with different surnames were selected and granted the title of Four Kings and Eight Dukes.
The four princes and eight princes all followed Taizu Qing to conquer the world and made great military achievements and were awarded titles!
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the four princes and eight princes were all military generals, with their own armies under their banners.
After the founding of the Qing Dynasty, Qing Taizu did not integrate the armies under the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, but continued to let the Four Kings and Eight Dukes take charge.
The army under Ningguo Gong Jia Yan was later stationed near Shenjing City, so it was renamed Jingying. Its main task was to guard Shenjing City, and Jia Yan served as the military envoy of Jingying.
The army under Rong Guo Gong Jia Yuan was later stationed in Chang'an Prefecture, so it was renamed Chang'an Camp, and Jia Yuan served as Chang'an Jiedu Envoy.
The Chang'an Jiedushi had great power. He was not only in charge of the military power of Chang'an Camp, but also in charge of the civil affairs and finance of the entire Chang'an Prefecture. He could be said to have monopoly power.
Chang'an Prefecture has nothing to do with Xi'an. It is a prefecture located near Shuntian Prefecture.
The main mission of Chang'an Camp is very special. It is to support the army. Wherever the Qing Dynasty needs military support, Chang'an Camp can provide support. It can be imagined that Chang'an Camp has many opportunities to make military achievements.
In the same way, the armies of Beijing County Prince, Nan'an County Prince, Dongping County Prince, and Xining County Prince were later stationed in Shengjing Prefecture in the north, Guangzhou Prefecture in the south, Hangzhou Prefecture in the east, and Xi'an Prefecture in the west. Their names were changed respectively.
They were Shengjing Camp, Guangzhou Camp, Hangzhou Camp and Xi'an Camp, with the four kings serving as military envoys respectively.
The other six princes were similar to the four kings and Rong Guogong. Later, each of them was assigned to a prefecture as the garrison of his army, and each of them served as a military envoy.
The Jiedushi of Shengjing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Xi'an, and the Jingying Jiedushi served by Gong Jiayan of Ningguo were all first-grade military attachés.
The military envoy to Chang'an served by Rongguo Gong Jia Yuan and the other military governors served by the other six princes were all military attachés of the second rank.
This is the system of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes and the Jiedu Envoys of the Qing Dynasty!
…
…
Regarding the matter of sending Jia Lian and Jia Rong into the army to achieve military honors, Jia She and Jia Zhen were determined, and Jia Mu did not forcibly stop them, so it was settled happily and peacefully.
So that morning, Jia She and Jia Zhen invited Prince Teng to Rongguo Mansion.
At this time, Prince Teng, Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, and Jia Rong gathered in the Rongxi Hall, the main hall of Rongguo Mansion, as well as Jia Mu, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Youshi, and Wang Xifeng.
There is no young lady, maid, daughter-in-law, or mother-in-law, not even the big-faced girl is here today.
Because what we are discussing today is a confidential matter.
Jia's mother came here, she took this matter seriously, and she also had some affection for Jia Lian.
But it was just a little love, which was much worse than her doting on Jia Baoyu. If Jia Zheng wanted to send Jia Baoyu into the army this time, Jia's mother would definitely stop it by force.
Not to mention that Jia Baoyu is still a teenager now, even if he is already twenty years old, Jia's mother will never allow this kind of thing. How can her innocent baby, the big-faced baby, go to the army and suffer?
As for Jia Lian, well, Jia's mother thought it would be a good thing to be sent to the army to achieve military merit and be promoted to the title of Rongguo Mansion.
At this moment, Jia She and Jia Zhen expressed their purpose to Wang Ziteng.
Wang Ziteng was a little stunned when he heard this. He arranged for Jia Lian and Jia Rong to go to his capital camp? He also asked him to take care of Jia Lian. Jia Rong had made great military achievements?
Wang Ziteng knew the Ningrong House very well and knew what Jia Lian and Jia Rong were.
Then Wang Ziteng said: "The sacred city of Jing has been at peace for a long time. Now the Jingying Camp does not have much military merit to be achieved. I suggest that the two brothers be sent to Chang'an Camp. Chang'an Camp does have a lot of military merit to achieve."
This is not true.
The main task of the Jingying Camp is to guard the Shenjing City. Although the Battle of the Imperial Palace happened recently, the Shenjing City has been generally peaceful in recent years. The Jingying Camp does not have many military merits to achieve, while the Chang'an Camp has many opportunities to achieve military merits.
Jia She was a little dissatisfied: "Although Chang'an Camp was previously in charge of my grandfather and father, my father handed over Chang'an Camp to the Yun family many years ago. Although the Yun family has maintained contact with our family over the years,
The relationship is no longer as close as it once was."
When Wang Ziteng heard this, he smiled strangely and thought: You, Jia She, still have the nerve to mention this?
When Jia Daishan was the governor of Chang'an, he brought Jia She into the Chang'an camp in the hope that Jia She would make great military achievements. As a result, Jia She's performance was terrible.
Therefore, when Jia She attacked the prince, he only attacked the first-class generals, which greatly reduced the title of Rong Guofu.
Moreover, Jia Daishan originally wanted to pass the position of Chang'an Jiedushi to Jia She, but in desperation, he passed the position to a general named Yunfeng under his command.
In other words, Jia She not only lowered the title of Rongguo Mansion, but also lost the Chang'an Jiedu Envoy and Chang'an Camp in Rongguo Mansion!
It’s such a waste!
Jia Daishan made Jia Zheng the head of the family and drove Jia She to the east road of Fushang. Jia She was not unjust at all.
At the moment, Jia She continued to be a little dissatisfied with Wang Ziteng and said: "Nephew Zhen and I sent Lian'er and Brother Rong to the capital camp under your control in the hope that you can help them achieve great military exploits. If we go,
Without Chang'an camp under the control of the Yun family, the Yun family most likely would not be willing to do such a thing."
What this means is: I am counting on Prince Teng to give military merit to Jia Lian, where is Jia Rong!
Haha, Jia She and Jia Zhen also know that Jia Lian and Jia Rong are not people who can achieve military merit on their own. If there is no military merit from the leader of the military camp, these two can achieve nothing!
Wang Ziteng was naturally much smarter than Jia She and Jia Zhen, and he had just seen through their thoughts.
Wang Ziteng was sarcastic about this, thinking: Nowadays, there are very few military merits in the Beijing camp. It is difficult for me to get military merits myself. How can I be willing to give military merits to Jia Lian and Jia Rong? What's more, once this matter is discovered by Emperor Tianzhi,
It's time to question the guilt. Emperor Tianzhi is a ruthless man. Jia She and Jia Zhen are really two idiots!
(Note: These two guys are not stupid. The ending of Ning Rong's second house in the original work will not be so miserable. Jia Zhen even dared to give Prince Yizhong's wooden coffin to Qin Keqing)
However, Wang Ziteng only mocked in his heart and would not say it out loud, saying: "Today's Beijing Camp really doesn't have much military merit. If I want Brother Lian and Brother Rong to achieve military merit, I can only send them to Chang'an Camp. I fully expect that
It's impossible for the Yun family to take care of you. The Yun family should take care of you, but it also depends on the two brothers' own efforts."
What this means is: Don’t expect the Yun family to directly send military honors.
Jia She still felt that this matter was inappropriate and wanted to persuade Wang Ziteng.
Jia Zhen also felt that this matter was inappropriate and persuaded Wang Ziteng together.
The two talked together for a while, and Jia Zheng became impatient: "You guys keep talking, I'll leave first."
Jia She, Jia Zhen: "..."
Finally it was Jia Mu who said: "Send Brother Lian and Brother Rong to Chang'an camp!"
Jia Mu had long known that Wang Ziteng was very cunning. Wang Ziteng had taken over the important role of Yu Yin in the Jia family and took over as the governor of the capital. Now it is not easy for the Jia family to ask for his help. This is why Jia Mu doesn't like him.
a little.
Jia Mu also knew that Jia She and Jia Zhen wanted the prince to give away military honors, and knew that this matter was indeed inappropriate. Once the emperor found out about it, he would be punished.
Jia Mu heard something about Emperor Tianzhi and knew that the emperor was a ruthless man.
If Emperor Kangxing was still on the throne and it was discovered that Jia Lian and Jia Rong were given military honors, even if they were questioned, they would not be charged with serious crimes. Emperor Tianzhi would not be sure.
"Ok, deal!"
After saying that, Jia Mu got up and left Rongxi Hall.
