Chapter 772: Commander-in-Chief of Kyoto Soldiers and Horses

"Cousin Yuanning asked my uncle to appoint him as the sixth-rank chief of the Department of Hosts and Guests of the Ministry of Etiquette, and stay in Beijing to study the matters of receiving tribute from the vassal country." An Yu was stunned after listening to Chengdong's report, and turned to Sheng Yuan and sighed, "I didn't know that cousin The ambition is here.”

"It's good. Nowadays, girls from common people still have the opportunity to achieve a career. However, the royal princess has a unclear future, which is a bit inappropriate." Sheng Yuan shrugged, "But I thought the emperor would arrange her in the clan. Mansion."

"...It's good." Anyu also nodded, "At least my aunt won't be angry, and it can also heal her dissatisfaction due to her cousin's unauthorized actions."

After soothing himself, Anyu regained his energy and laughed with Sheng Yuan: "It's better if we all go out and be naughty. No one in Kyoto will take care of us, so we will be more comfortable!"

"You are good-looking, and your thoughts are even more beautiful!" Sheng Yuan felt that the emperor would definitely not let Brother Yu have too much leisure.

Sure enough, two days before Emperor Jinghe's departure, he appointed Anyu as the acting commander-in-chief of the Kyoto army.

The General Headquarters of Soldiers and Horses in Kyoto was a specially established department of the Great Yan Dynasty after "the six counties merged into the capital."

However, it was abolished during the Chen Jizong period and was not reestablished until Emperor Jinghe succeeded to the throne.

The role of this department is equivalent to a key point, which allows the five armies stationed in the suburbs of Beijing, namely the South Sentinel Army, the North Sentinel Army, the East Camp Army, the West Camp Army, and the Central Army, to defend and support Kyoto, but not to enter the city at will.

At the same time, the commander-in-chief of Kyoto's troops and horses also has the power to dispatch the internal guards to rescue the troops and integrate the troops and horses patrolling the city.

Let's put it this way, whoever has the power of the position of commander-in-chief of Kyoto's troops can control Kyoto's military strength.

Such an important position cannot be filled except by the emperor's hard-core confidants.

Emperor Jinghe mentioned Anyu to this position because the former commander-in-chief of Kyoto's army and horses wanted to accompany his imperial commander on patrol.

In the words of Emperor Jinghe: "You boy, do your best! When Mr. Chi comes back, you still have to give your position back to me!"

"Give it back to him! Give it back to him! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have to suffer!"

Anyu was already looking forward to the return of Emperor Jing and his entourage.

Emperor Jinghe, who had not yet set off: "..."

Why does the nephew he raised look more and more like his father-in-law!

"Look at how lazy you are! How do you look like me!" Emperor Jing He didn't understand why he, a diligent and hard-working man, could raise a child with his own hands but not strive for progress?

Why hasn't this kid ever felt the power of role models? !

Is he so unworthy of his nephew’s study? !

How unreasonable!

Emperor Jinghe, who was getting more and more angry as he thought about it, picked a bamboo one and threw it over: "You'd better not be lazy before I return to the capital. If something goes wrong, I will let you walk around Dachu." Son!"

An Yu wanted to speak but couldn't answer a word: "..."

When he left the Lanzheng Palace angrily, the depressed Anyu took off his armor in an instant and ran out of the palace.

"My uncle must have underestimated me. No matter how lazy I am, I can't forget how to write the words "do my duty to the best of my ability!" I like leisure and enjoyment, but that doesn't mean I like to mess around!"

After coming out of the palace, Anyu found Sheng Yuan and complained to him about his dissatisfaction.

Sheng Yuan had just gotten familiar with the job from Shangguan. Since Zuo Si Cheng was on duty today, she had a day off.

A whole day's vacation sounds good, but these left-behind officials will not have a vacation in the months between the emperor's departure from the capital and the return of the army to the capital.
