"What does the emperor mean by this? You have given me a mansion and asked me to go to Luoyang to choose?" In the Li Mansion, holding the "Edict", Li Jun was stunned. The flesh on Li Jun's face was almost twisted together.
It is not solved.
"No, we are at a critical moment now. Doesn't this mean that I will be sent to Luoyang?" A fool will always succeed, Li Jun thought, but his expression became more and more ugly.
"Dad, I think that the emperor has no intention of paying you a handsome position! A mansion in Luoyang is not like a reward, but more like a warning. I hope dad will be careful!" Beside, a green young man frowned at Xiang Ning and gnashed his teeth.
Li Jundao.
This young man is Li Yun's son, Li Shoujie. He is under sixteen years old. He has an ordinary appearance but a calm temperament. However, he is a little timid and fearful in the face of his father.
"What do you mean by that?" Li Jun glared at Li Shoujie.
Li Shoujie bowed his hands and said solemnly: "In the past few days since Mr. He died of illness, my father has been in the capital, running around, contacting generals inside and outside, in order to seek the position of commander-in-chief. This matter must have spread to the palace and reached the ears of the emperor, so
There is this edict!”
Li Jun raised his eyebrows and said: "You mean, someone is slandering the emperor? Who is it? It must be Luo Yanxuan, that's right. Everyone wants to be the commander-in-chief, so how could he not be tempted...
....”
Seeing his father's reaction, Li Shoujie's immature face flashed with uneasiness, and his tone became a little anxious, and he said: "Dad, what I mean is that your actions in seeking the handsome position are too blatant and your methods are too direct.
, this has always been taboo, I’m afraid this will bring disaster to the Li family!”
"What do you think? You're a young boy with a yellow mouth, and you're still young. What do you know!" Hearing his son's words, which were vaguely meant to teach him a lesson, Li Jun immediately scolded him angrily: "What I did was not for the sake of the Li family's prominence, glory for the lintel, or for the sake of shelter."
Children and grandchildren, we will bless future generations! It’s unreasonable to bring trouble to a child like you!”
Facing his irritable father, Li Shoujie subconsciously lowered his head, not daring to face his anger. But Li Yun was angry, but he was not completely unable to listen to Zi Yan. It made sense when he thought about it. However, being
He pointed out the lesson all at once, looking a little confused.
In his irritable mood, mixed with a little anxiety, he wandered in the room for a while, turned around, and asked: "What do you think I should do?"
Li Shoujie was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and noticed that his father's face was still stiff and stubborn, but his eyes were a little evasive. He breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and said, "Dad, my knowledge is shallow and I don't have any high opinions.
From now on, you should only obey the emperor and the imperial court's edicts, and no longer seek the position of commander. You can obey the edict, go to Luoyang, choose a mansion, and express your gratitude!"
After hearing what he said, Li Jun took a few breaths, his beard twitched, and sighed: "I didn't expect that today I have to follow your advice."
"Alas!" Li Jun sighed heavily, and said a little less enthusiastic: "But, if it is as you said, it will be difficult for my Li family to be prominent in front of others!"
Seeing Li Yun's melancholy look, Li Shoujie lowered his head, not daring to express what was in his heart. In his opinion, it would be good if his father could keep his wealth and safety after all this trouble.
...
In the inner city of Kaifeng, there is a house among the noble residences, with a plaque on the door saying "King". This is the residence of Wang Yin, the deputy commander of the guard army. However, at this time, the palace is busy, with servants and maids, The family members in the courtyard were all packing their clothes and luggage, as if they were going on a long journey.
The preparations were very meticulous, including jewelry, clothes, bedding, even dishes, dishes, toiletries, and even the insects, birds, flowers and trees that we usually watch. The stewards in the mansion were arranging, urging, and scolding those who were there from time to time. A helpless servant.
"We're about to leave. We're going to Mozhou. It's a thousand miles away. Everything needs to be prepared..."
In the Han Palace, Emperor Liu Chengyou was in a bad mood again.
Originally, after Li Jun handed over the memorial of thanks and went to Luoyang to choose a house, he temporarily let the matter go. However, after discussions with the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, the adjustment of the Hebei border defense army was finally decided. A charter.
On the basis of the original defense line, starting from Suicheng in Yizhou, from west to east, along the line of Juma River, the Baoding Army, Shun'an Army, Xiongan Army, Xin'an Army and the Yongqing Army in the north were stationed at various city passes and at the entrance of the village. , river defense.
Each army has a strength of 5,000, and a capital deployment office is set up in Mozhou with 8,000 troops. As a result, the original garrison will undergo a new round of reorganization and elimination. Not only will the strength of the troops be weakened, there will also be a number of The army exchanged defenses with the imperial troops in Hua, Chan, Yuancheng and other places.
When the time came, Liu Chengyou finally couldn't resist attacking the Hebei garrison. Even though the supply of logistical equipment was in the hands of the imperial court, Liu Chengyou had previously decentralized power to prevent dangers from the north, so he had to worry about the Hebei frontier army. A series of its own.
Now, although He Fujin is dead, Li Jun's performance is enough to wake him up. This adjustment may have an impact on the morale of the army, and the combat effectiveness should also be reduced, but as long as it is implemented, it can reassure the emperor and the central government and eliminate The trouble is worth it.
As long as it is under a reasonable and good system, there is actually no need to worry too much about the combat effectiveness of the army. The soldiers who have been eliminated also have several places to go. One is to be transferred to the soon-to-be-established Hebei Capital Command Department; the other is to supplement the Transportation Department; One retired from service and returned to his hometown; the fourth became an auxiliary army and settled in the army on the spot.
As for the selection of military envoys, except for Luo Yanxuan who was transferred to the Shunan Army, Ma Quanyi remained in the Yongqing Army, and the rest of the military envoys were selected from the Forbidden Army. The Xiong'an Army envoy was Han Lingkun, and the Xin'an Army was Guo Jin. As for the Baoding Army, although The position of Li Jun has not yet been announced, but the replacement has already been decided, and Dong Zunjie, the captain of Xingjie, will be transferred to the position.
The most critical thing is who will be in charge of the deployment in the north. After some discussion, it was decided that Wang Yin, the deputy commander of the Guards Department, would go north to take office and organize the army.
Wang Yin has always been a senior general in the imperial army of the Han Dynasty. He went through military conflicts in his early years and gained many honors. Of course, his greatest achievement since the beginning of the Han Dynasty was when he defeated Du Chongwei. Liu Zhiyuan praised him, thus establishing his position in the army.
After Liu Chengyou succeeded to the throne, he made several adjustments to the Forbidden Army. During the training, Wang Yin also steadily rose through the ranks. It was not until the fifth year of Emperor Qianyou's reign that Wang Jun clashed with Han Tong in the palace, and he unexpectedly went one step further and became the deputy commander of the Guards Department.
This time, because he went north to command the army, Wang Yin did have merit in terms of qualifications and ability. However, it was Wang Yin who made Liu Chengyou angry and annoyed at this time.
Because of his high position, he was originally a person of concern to spies. Now that he has moved to the garrison commander, he has become an even more important focus. According to Wude Si's report, Wang Yin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he learned that he was the commander-in-chief. He posted a message inviting colleagues, relatives, and friends to hold a banquet. They celebrated together in a rather public manner. They bluntly said that after so long, it was finally Wang Yin's turn. And the "lively" scene in his home was also reported to the emperor in detail.
Therefore, when Liu Chengyou heard this, how could he not be angry or annoyed? He slammed down a memorial in his hand and knocked over the tea cup. Liu Chengyou said angrily: "Is he moving or taking office? I've heard that the Wang family has Extravagance, I remember his old merits, and tolerate it. Now that he wants to reuse it, I know that his home is so flashy that it makes people laugh. Look, he might as well move the entire mansion to Mozhou!"
"Since we know the joy of promotion, why don't we worry about shouldering heavy responsibilities? With such publicity, do you think you are going to the north to enjoy the blessings? The recommendation is not a person, and I am deeply disappointed! I don't know the person well, and it is also my fault!"

When the emperor was angry, the whole palace fell into silence, although there was no one in the palace. Li Chongju stood there with his body bowed and his head bowed, quietly listening to his venting, while Zhang Dejun carefully cleaned the imperial case.
Wang Yin's incident made Liu Chengyou couldn't help but reflect on himself. Was he too confident? Are the generals of the Forbidden Army not as respectful as they appear on the surface?
The example of Wang Yin can be seen vividly before our eyes. Obviously, in the past, although Liu Chengyou had a clear discipline and strong law for the army, in addition to military law, he was still too lenient, and some measures should be taken to restrain it. Otherwise, the system of arrogant soldiers will be , will always only treat the symptoms. And old generals like Wang Yin should also retire from their positions as generals of the Forbidden Army.
He gets angry when he is angry, but with Liu Chengyou's temperament, he will not be carried away by anger. He quickly calms down, only thinks about it for a moment, and then says: "Pass it to Guo Rong!"
The next day, the emperor issued several edicts. One of them was to remove Wang Yin from his post in the north, remove him from his post in the imperial army, and send envoys to his residence to reprimand him and make him shut up and think about his mistakes.
Secondly, An Shenqi, the king of Chenliu County, went north to Mozhou and took up the position of deploying the northern capital and taking charge of the northern imperial equipment.
Third, Li Chuyun and Pan Mei were ordered by the Privy Council to go north and serve as training envoys, responsible for the reorganization and training of Hebei's garrison and defense armies.
Fourth, when the troops were sent back to the north, they were given gold, silver, money, silk, and silk.
