After announcing these two imperial edicts, Yunxi will not carry out new reforms for the time being. The food must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step. The consequence of being too impatient is that it is better to go slower.
Most of these reforms were related to the police, so Yunxi decided to reward these policemen with a big reward.

On May 22nd, Li Yihai was off duty. He was distracted all the way home. He almost bumped into others several times. Not only him, but also several other people in their guard were also distracted and wandered all the way.
They came back. Fortunately, they were police officers. Ordinary passers-by did not dare to mess with them, and noble officials did not want to cause trouble in the capital, so they returned home safely.
Yang was very surprised to see Li Yihai like this and asked: "Dad, what's going on?" She looked at it again and thought it was probably a happy event, and then said: "Dad, it's because he has the courage to do his job and got Yingtian Mansion.
reward?"
Li Yihai finally came to his senses at this time, took off his coat and handed it to his second son, Sizhou. Then his voice was still slightly trembling and he said, "Yes, His Majesty wants to summon me."
"What! Your Majesty wants to summon dad?" Yang and Sizhou said in unison. Not only did they speak in unison, their expressions were also similar. They were both extremely surprised.
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Li Yihai recovered a little and said happily: "Master Fu Yin said that your Majesty feels that the Yingtianfu police have done a good job during this period, and personally issued an imperial edict to praise us; he wants to summon us again.
Ten police officers from Yingtian Prefecture and the magistrate in charge of the Beicheng branch recommended me."
He was very happy. He was from a military background. In the past, the emperor might not have seen His Majesty when he inspected the Imperial Guards. But that was when the entire Guardsmen were inspected together, not that he was received in person; and tomorrow he will be received in person.
, not only can I listen to the royal voice, but I can even talk to His Majesty. This is a blessing that I will never get in a lifetime.
Because tomorrow is the day when Yunxi summons them, Yang has no time to immerse herself in happiness. She and her mother-in-law Xu dug out all the clothes of Li Yihai at home, and finally found a pair of relatively good clothes for Li Yihai.
Wear it to meet the emperor tomorrow.
Although Li Yihai didn't have to be on duty the next day, he couldn't sleep at midnight. He lay on the bed and rolled around until dawn, then got up and washed up. Although he didn't get enough sleep, he was very energetic.
After washing up and having breakfast, Li Yihai put on the brocade clothes he borrowed last night and left home.

…
Yunxi came down from the court, and as soon as he got off the throne and walked to the back, he heard Wang Xi say: "Your Majesty, Huang Fuyin has led ten policemen to the outside of Chengtian Gate. Can we declare their presence now?"
"Xuan." Yunxi, who had just finished a very boring morning session, cheered up and said. These lower-class people are more interesting to talk to.
Yunxi returned to Qianqing Palace. Not long after, Huang Huai walked into the main hall with ten people dressed in police uniforms. When he saw Yunxi, he immediately saluted and said, "I have seen your majesty." The ten policemen behind him didn't even notice.
They didn't see Yunxi, but after hearing Huang Huai's voice, they immediately knelt down and said loudly: "The common people have seen your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!"
Yunxi smiled and said, "I'm free of charge."
After that, Yunxi asked them a few questions casually, and they answered cautiously. Perhaps because Yunxi had a kinder attitude, they gradually relaxed a little and talked more.
"Your Majesty, our family was impoverished before. Although we had the eldest son's salary, our younger son and daughter were still young, so our family's life was very tight. If His Majesty hadn't chosen us to work as police officers in Yingtian Mansion, our family would have been unable to survive. Already..." Li Yihai said.
He meant to emphasize Yunxi's kindness to them, but Yunxi suddenly asked: "Why, Yulin Zuowei's pension has not been paid?" The pension that Yunxi set at the beginning was not low, at least it was enough for one or two years. .
Li Yihai immediately said: "Your Majesty, the pension has been paid, but we can't spend all the money on the grain. We still have to save money to build a house for our second son."
Hearing Li Yihai's answer, Zhang Fu, who was standing by, breathed a sigh of relief. If Li Yihai had answered, 'The pension has not been paid in full' or something similar, a big prison would have broken out immediately. 'Fortunately, nothing like this happened.' Zhang Fu thought. .
Yunxi then said a few words to them and praised them: "Although you are in a humble position, you don't take it seriously at all. You fulfill your duties and fulfill your responsibilities as a qualified policeman. You are called a junior by the people who patrol the place you visit." Blue sky, my heart is so comforted."
"Today, I will give special rewards to you. Each of you will be given a batch of silk and a hundred taels of silver. In addition, I will establish the post of Sheriff, starting from the ninth rank, and you will be responsible for it."
They all knelt down excitedly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Yunxi smiled and said: "No courtesy."
Seeing how excited they all were, Yunxi thought he had a plan. Since ancient times, no one like a subordinate official has been interviewed by the emperor. Regardless of whether there are police officers who are interviewed this time, they will work harder to ensure their success. Seek to be summoned by the emperor.
After asking them to retreat, Yunxi smiled at Huang Huai and said, "In fact, Huang Qing also worked hard and achieved great results. In the past, Zhao Song had Bao Qingtian, and Huang Qing was enough to become Huang Qingtian."
Huang Huai also knelt down and said, "I am so ashamed of myself!"
"What's wrong with you? I'll give you the title of Imperial Doctor as a reward." Yunxi said.
Huang Huaigang was about to stand up, but when he heard Yunxi's words, he bowed his head and said, "I thank your Majesty for your kindness."
Yunxi smiled and said: "We, the monarchs and ministers, don't have to do these vain things. Since I reward you, you should be rewarded. It doesn't have to be like this."
The monarch and his ministers said a few more words, and Huang Huai withdrew.
But after Huang Huai withdrew, Yun He's expression suddenly changed. He narrowed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. He said after a while: "I passed the decree and ordered the Central Military Governor's Office to have the right to verify whether the Shang Zhiwei had done anything illegal. But Come and remonstrate before me."
Although Li Yihai just said that there was no deduction in the pension, Yunxi suddenly realized that the generals of the Shangzhiwei were corrupt.
The Shangzhiwei is not under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Military Governor's Mansion, but directly under the emperor; but how can an ordinary emperor have the mind to take care of the Shangzhiwei? It is not left to the various commanders. At the same time, the Shangzhiwei has no other supervisory agencies, only The Metropolitan Procuratorate, which can impeach all officials, nominally supervises the Imperial Guard, making it easy for the commander to dominate the Imperial Guard.
Yunxi thought about it and decided to let the Governor's Office of the Chinese Army supervise the Shangzhiwei. Chen Xingshan should be there in the Governor's Office of the Chinese Army.
Zhang Fu drafted the imperial edict and sent it to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army after being reviewed and sealed by Yunxi.
