The new officer took office as the first three things. With the new commander Shang Hongqian taking office, with the help of the Privy Council, he launched an adjustment to the Tokyo Forbidden Army. Basically, in accordance with Liu Chengyou's instructions, he strictly enforced military discipline, strengthened training, and targeted various personnel. The generals of the army carried out a wave of small-scale transfers. Among them, Shi Hongzhao and Liu Xin convinced the generals and either transferred them to other departments or sent them to other provinces and towns.
As for Shang Hongqian, despite his low sense of presence and low prestige before, his reputation is still good, at least no one hates him. Of course, when he was actually ordered to control the Forbidden Army and strictly enforce military discipline, Shang Hongqian's methods were basically He is not soft, but he is not as cruel as Shi and Liu. If the military academy breaks the law, they will be dealt with according to military law without mercy.
Again, in this era of rampant tigers and wolves, how can one work hard in the army to reach the high position of general? It all depends on luck. Even if Shang Hongqian is not talented enough and "stands alone", how can he be purely lucky? Treated as an "honest person"?
When the post of imperial commander was settled, Liu Chengyou, who had been vacant for a long time as the governor of Kaifeng, had already decided on a candidate. A person who was beyond the expectations of many people was Lu Guogong Hou Yi, who was raised by him to participate in the government affairs in Tokyo.
Liu Chengyou did not appoint the emperor's brother at first. According to his original idea, he wanted to select a promising minister to judge the affairs of the Kaifeng government. Liu Shenjiao, Jing Fan, Li Hub, and Wu Xingde all In his consideration, these people are also among the few people who in Liu Chengyou's eyes have the ability to govern Kaifeng Mansion.
Liu Shenjiao and Jingfan, Ruzhou has not yet been settled, and the other is responsible for the garrison of Zhengzhou. What's more, Liu Chengyou can promote Jingfan to the defense of Zhengzhou with one word, but he cannot entrust him to the Kaifeng government all at once.
Li Hub, an old minister of the former dynasty who joined Liu Chengyou in Hebei last year, although they did not know each other well, after working together for the past few months, his ability could still stand the test. When Liu Chengyou succeeded to the throne, he promoted him to become an official. De Observation Envoy, Zhang Heng, Ji, Zhao, went deep into the civil affairs of the northern prefectures and counties and supervised the agricultural work. During this period, he did a good job and could not leave at all.
As for Wu Xingde, this minister had a very good impression on Liu Chengyou. He had previously transferred him away from Heyang, which had little popularity among the people, and had no complaints. However, he had just moved to Xuzhou not long ago, and Liu Chengyou was more affectionate and reasonable. You couldn't do anything to him anymore, even if he was appointed by the Kaifeng government.
After much thought, Liu Chengyou became interested in this "old loach" when he summoned the Marquis to consult with him about the affairs of the Han Dynasty in the west.
Just like Shang Hongqian, he had similar thoughts about using Hou Yi and Liu Chengyou. The only difference is that Hou Yi is a slippery and shrewd old man, so he should be very successful in taking charge of Kaifeng Mansion.
Of course, this does not mean that the Han Dynasty did not have other talented people with sufficient abilities. The Han Dynasty maintained many old and new officials and courtiers. However, there were only a few who had sufficient qualifications, fame, and abilities to reassure Liu Chengyou.
And since Liu Chengyou wanted to be successful, as a smart man, Hou Yi, if he was placed in the position of the governor of Kaifeng, would he live a mediocre life? Liu Chengyou still had some expectations for this.
...
The sound of "crashing" echoed in the palace, which was the sound of memorials being thrown forcefully, followed closely by Liu Chengyou's angry questioning: "Is this world still my world? In the land of Kinki, in the face of the imperial edict, Still turning a deaf ear. Do you really think that I am a young person who can be bullied when you despise the majesty of the imperial court?"
Liu Chengyou stood in front of the imperial cabinet, his eyes were frightening, he was furious, and he glanced coldly at the ministers in the palace. The ministers were all sitting, but they probably weren't as stable as they appeared, and there was nothing extra in every aspect. expression.
This is the first time Liu Chengyou has become so angry since he came to the throne.
The reason why Liu Chengyou was angry was due to the issue of the implementation of the edict after returning to the court after his western tour at the beginning of the month. The imperial edict abolished all miscellaneous taxes in the past and strictly prohibited private collection by officials in various states in the Han Dynasty. The edict was spread to the world, and those who followed it naturally turned a deaf ear to it. By.
Today, Liu Chengyou received a report from Li Shaoyou. In Kinki Prefecture County, some officials ignored the imperial edicts, still imposed heavy taxes, amassed money and disturbed the people. Then, Liu Chengyou started the imperial meeting with a rage.
"Your Majesty, please suspend your thunderous anger." Yang Bin stood up and said with a strong attitude: "Local officials, generals, and some unscrupulous people who ignore the imperial edicts should be dealt with appropriately to set an example and restore the dignity of the imperial court!"
"I second the proposal." Wang Zhang agreed.
This was followed by a chorus of second opinions. After all, those who committed the crime were some grassroots county and town officials who used them to show their authority, so there was not much psychological pressure. Furthermore, judging from the emperor's reaction, how could the imperial court not come up with countermeasures? Able to rest.
Sure enough, Liu Chengyou said directly and sternly: "In the capital and prefectures, all officials who violate the orders and hold office will be punished and dismissed. Yang Qing, local officials, many of them are rough people, will be dismissed from their posts, and officials will be transferred from Tokyo to know where they are located!" In addition, we will issue political orders again and pass on various measures to ensure their strict implementation!"
"Yes!" Yang Bin agreed.
Officials and county magistrates were Liu Chengyou's method to strengthen the imperial court's influence and control over local areas. Of course, under the current situation, for the time being, he could only deal with Kinki and other prefectures and towns directly under the imperial court's jurisdiction. For those officials who ignored orders, Other Fangzhens are temporarily out of reach, but under the emperor’s feet, how can they be so arrogant?
Regarding this matter, Liu Chengyou's angry reaction was obviously a little too big, and it felt like he had used too much force. In fact, it was exactly like this. When he lowered the control, Liu Chengyou had expected such a situation. In this world It has been in chaos for decades, and it is like this. If the government issues a policy and the local generals can implement it with all their heart, then there will be a problem.
Liu Chengyou's anger was a gesture to express his power in front of the ministers with a loud voice, which also represented an inadvertent change in power and status. It can be said that now Liu Chengyou, the young emperor, has basically got rid of the oppression of the ministers.
After venting, Liu Chengyou returned to his usual solemn posture, calm and restrained, and could discuss matters properly...
"Your Majesty, after the three Yamen's joint trial, the case of the guilty minister Su Fengji has been closed." After discussing the two important matters related to the financial lifeline of the imperial court, namely food and salt, Yang Bin reported to Liu Chengyou.
"Oh? Is there any result?" Liu Chengyou glanced at Yang Bin, pretending to be surprised.
Liu Chengyou had actually heard about the case of Su Fengji for a long time, and this matter had a great impact in Tokyo. Yang Bin personally tried the case in Kaifeng Mansion, and the two sworn enemies had a wonderful "controversy" in the courtroom. "Debate". Even if he is in jail and in a state of questioning, he will still be arrogant. Or, in the midst of a great crisis, he will realize that the emperor wants to deal with him, and he will feel that his future is gloomy, and he will break the pot and break the pot.

During the trial of the case, Yang Bin ordered people to announce to the officials and people in Tokyo that anyone who had been wronged against Su Fengji could file a complaint in Kaifeng Mansion. As soon as this announcement came out, people in Tokyo were agitated, and within a day , there were hundreds of people of all kinds who made the whistleblower. Among them, the most surprising ones were Xu Guogong, his mother and his son.
Liu Chengyou had also heard about the "wonderful" events, which was quite surprising. He had an urge to see that "shy flower", which actually made Su Fengji jealous and couldn't help but covet him... ..
"After discussion among the ministers and others, the crime committed by Su Fengji has a clear name and list of fourteen capital crimes. The evidence is conclusive. According to the criminal law, he should be punished with the death penalty of Cun Jie!" Yang Fan said with a cold face.
Hearing what he said, Liu Chengyou just nodded. Yang Bin really had no mercy. After thinking for a while, Liu Chengyou looked at the others: "What do you think, sir?"
