"Cousin, it is the decision of the imperial court for the governor from other places to come to Beijing with no more than a hundred people, not the intention of Fuzhongtang alone."
The eldest cousin Sai Chong'a came out to smooth things over, saying that this rule was not directed by Fuzhongtang against his cousin, but was a traditional rule.
For example, when an official at the governor level comes to Beijing to report on his duties, in theory, in addition to his staff and entourage, he can have up to 20 "bodyguards."
There are more governors, but there will not be more than 50 people.
"Of course I will not violate the imperial system, but cousin, you need to know that in addition to being the governor of Zhili and the deputy commander of Zhenglan Banner of the Han Army, I am also the President of the Protectorate Camp."
Jia Liu didn't act aimlessly, he had done enough homework before coming.
His governor's guard includes the cavalry troops commanded by Ruilin, and its organization belongs to the Eight Banners regular army - Hujun Camp!
As the main force of the Central Army and the elite of the Eight Banners, the Guards are of course not subject to restrictions on the number of officials accompanying officials to the capital. Instead, they should be treated as soldiers and horses that can enter and leave the capital freely.
If we must take it seriously, the guard army established by Jia Liu is also responsible for the important task of guarding the palace and the prince's palace, which is also the work responsibility of the Shangsanqi guard army rebuilt by Uncle Se.
It sounds nonsense.
The problem is that this is what the Eight Banners military system is like.
Otherwise, Jia Liu was so full that he had to integrate the Green Camp of the capital and Chang Wei's army into the guard army, so that one day his troops would have legal reasons to enter the capital.
"No one can hurt a tiger's heart. Tigers are harmful to others. Cousin, I will tell you the things that we have to say directly between you and my closest relatives."
Jia Liu reminded his eldest cousin, who was the minister in charge of Luan Yiwei, that the Fu Zhongtang and the court forces headed by him were not actually the same people as them.
Even if we have a cooperative relationship now, we still have to be careful of the rich party going it alone.
After all, no one wants power to be divided.
Furthermore, even if Fu Zhongtang has no harmful intentions, don’t the people who rally around him not?
If my cousin, who is the Governor of Zhili, is ordered to be served, will Prince An and his family, as relatives, be able to sleep peacefully?
"My cousin should know better than I do about the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling cold."
Jia Liu was not sure what degree his eldest cousin had, but he thought he must understand this simple truth.
After hearing this, the eldest cousin's expression immediately became solemn, so he argued with Fu Zhongtang on the grounds that his cousin's troops were protecting the army.
The old rich man is really regretful. After working for more than half a year, he forgot that Guizi Liu set up a guard army to go there. But everyone else followed the rules and went to Beijing. You Guizi Liu brought two to three thousand people to the capital. Why did he get so angry in his face?
I can’t hang on either.
The imperial court is still shameless!
Thinking about all the unrighteousness of Guizi Liu, I still can't swallow this breath, and I firmly disagree with all Guizi Liu's troops entering Beijing.
He also hinted to his confidants, Admiral Malqin of the Nine Gates, to be on alert to prevent emergencies.
Sure enough, I have soldiers in hand, I am not panicking, and my confidence has increased dozens of times compared to last year.
At the critical moment, Liu Yong, the vice president of Sikuquanshu, came forward to persuade. First, he advised Lord Zhongtang to focus on the overall situation, and then he advised Lord Jia Jia to take into account the court system. In order to settle the dispute as soon as possible, Liu Yong suggested that Lord Jia Jia could bring 300 people.
Enter Beijing.
At this time, the city gate had been blocked for more than an hour to welcome the arrival of the Zhili Governor. There were many people and merchants inside and outside the city who wanted to leave the city. The queue outside the city alone was blocked for three or four miles.
This was contrary to Jia Liu's belief that nothing should affect the people's normal freedom of movement, so he took a step back and said that the cavalry troops guarding the army could be stationed outside the city, but his own guards had to enter the city.
The size of his guard was very large, with a total of 500 people. Two-thirds were Sauron's powerful troops from outside the pass, and one-third were loyal Eight Banners and Green Camp warriors.
They all start from the eighth level, and the personal guards start from the seventh level. In addition to superb martial arts, superb archery skills, and proficiency in shooting, the selection requirements must be at least two to three Manmong reactionary flag members.
It is better to say that it is a guard than an officer training camp.
I dare not say that one against ten, one against five, or three against three is theoretically not a problem at all.
Especially the rough Sauron guys outside the pass, they are really like fierce tigers in the old forest.
There is a saying in our army that if the guard is less than a thousand, it is invincible if it is more than a thousand.
"Master Liu, please make it clear to Fu Zhongtang that he is so guarded against us and other military guards. Is it because he is wary of me, my brother-in-law? So why did he ask me to come to the meeting? Could it be that the National Assembly convened by Master Zhongtang can only be said by one family?
!"
There is no reason to believe that Liu Yong is called Liu Luoguo by the people for a reason, because the old boy is really a bit hunchbacked.
In addition, his appearance is also considered to be honest.
But Jia Liu was not deceived by the old boy's appearance. He knew very well that this guy had the same corruption habits as himself. He was fond of teasing others and had also relied on his literary skills to rise through the ranks and become a famous official.
Anyone who thrives on literature and prison must have a dark psychology.
Therefore, Jia Liu planned to wait for Shuan Zhu to take control of Zhili and then launch a crackdown on Liu Yong and his like. He wanted to see how many rounds Liu Luoguo could withstand.
There is actually some evidence. For example, Liu Yong wrote a poem, which goes like this: "The autumn wind blows in my dream of Xiaoxiangpu, and I look back at the South Tower and the moon is shining brightly."
Shuan Zhu determined that this sentence was treacherous and unethical, and it was recommended that it be sent to Ninggu Pagoda at the very least.
Now let's let Liu Yong dance around for a few days. After all, he has just become a cabinet bachelor and has to get rid of the official addiction.
Out of influence, the old man finally agreed that the Japanese army would bring five hundred guards into the city.
Anyway, five hundred people like this guy can't change the world.
For safety reasons, Ma Qin, the admiral of the Nine Sects, was instructed to secretly deploy troops and monitor them strictly.
After the matter was resolved, Jia Liu would certainly not play the emotional card with the old rich man again, and said sadly: "I don't know why, but I always feel that my eldest brother is no longer the eldest brother he used to be, and I am a little alienated from my brother.
"
The old rich man thought that if I said one more fucking word to you, he would force me to miss a meal.
"I know that my eldest brother has some thoughts about me. Misunderstandings are inevitable in life, but I must remind my eldest brother that you and I are both authentic old Manchus. Please, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, please don't fight with each other.
Those Han people are joking."
After saying that, Jia Liu turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he turned back and scratched his bald head: "By the way, where will the meeting be held?"
"Heart-nurturing Hall."
The old rich man gave the venue address in a muffled voice.
The palace ban was controlled by the power of Uncle Se. Without Uncle Se's consent, it would have been difficult for the old rich man to cause trouble in Yangxin Palace. Therefore, Jia Liu felt more at ease and casually asked the emperor if he would participate.
"What does the affairs of the imperial court have to do with the emperor?"
The old rich man curled his lips, then a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he kindly asked his six sons, "Are you going home to live?"
"Um."
Jia Liu thought to himself, this is not nonsense. He is as clean as water. Apart from the house given by Sony's descendants, there is only one Jia family's old house in Beijing. If he doesn't go back to the old house, why should he live in your rich man's land?
What's the difference between that and courting death?
"oh,"
The old man smiled and said, "By the way, I have to congratulate you. Your father has given you another brother."
These words made Jia Liu panic all the way. Seeing that the adults looked wrong, Deputy Director Ding asked him what was going on out of his duty to share worries.
"It's okay. If you say I want to trap my father and kill my brother, what will future generations say about me?"
Jia Liu looked very serious.
"Of course it's Mingjun."
Deputy Director Ding didn't look like he was just faking it.
