In the palace, Huangfu Mingzhao thought for a long time before finally writing an imperial edict.
"Order someone to go and announce the decree!" Huangfu Mingzhao said calmly after handing it to a great eunuch.
No matter how you say it, Wang Yu is still a minister of Da Cang. He won such a great victory this time, and a reward is indispensable. However, of course there cannot be any substantial rewards.
For example, if someone else is in Wang Yu's position, they will most likely be awarded the position of Taoist Marching General this time, and then have the opportunity to enter the Central Committee again. Of course, if you are already a member of the Central Committee before committing meritorious service, then the reward must be another matter.
However, it is impossible for Wang Yu to be granted the position of marching general, governor, county guard or even county magistrate. Even if he is to be granted the position, it can only be to these official positions within Yanbei Road, but not to Yanbei Road. These official positions outside.
The Four Towns General Mansion is already a concern for the imperial court. How far will the imperial court get before they take the initiative to give them the opportunity to expand their power!
What's wrong, the imperial court feels that the hidden danger is not big enough, and it has to help develop the hidden danger. If it really develops and grows, and makes people strong enough, they might have ambitions if they didn't originally have ambitions.
Things like ambition require soil to nourish it. If you are not strong enough, you are not even qualified to generate ambition. But if the strength is strong enough, ambition will naturally breed.
Therefore, when it was Wang Yu's turn to award the reward, the main focus was to expand the fiefdom and food towns. The four generals of the four towns, in addition to being the generals of the four towns, also hold the position of hereditary duke, and naturally have fiefs and towns.
However, for the Wang family, the imperial court's reward of fiefdoms and food towns only added a little more superficial face and glory, but in fact, they got nothing.
After all, after these hundreds of years, even Yanbei Road has been overtly and covertly controlled by the Zhendong General Mansion. Even if the fiefdoms and towns were expanded, they were still within the scope of Yanbei Road, and essentially nothing was given to them.
Not only the imperial court, news of the war between Wang Yu and Dongyi continued to spread. Other forces in Da Cang also reacted a lot, and the strongest reaction was undoubtedly Prince Su Huangfu Mingze, who is currently located in Yannan Road.
Strength, only strength, is the guarantee of everything after all. Under Shi Zhixuan's suggestion, while all the power of the imperial court has basically been contained, it is difficult to allocate excess power to deal with him at this time. Therefore, Su Wang Huangfu Mingze decided to take root in Yannan Road.
How to take root, of course, the most direct way is to take Yannan Road into your own hands. To achieve this, in addition to wooing officials from various places, we do not rule out the use of violent methods such as military conquest.
As for the issue of fiefs, Huangfu Mingze had already given up on his own initiative. The top priority is to develop strength more than anything else.
Therefore, at this moment, the Suwang Group and the imperial court are almost at odds with each other, and all that is left is the fig leaf on the surface.
If there were not those internal and external troubles, the imperial court would have directly labeled King Su as a rebel and then sent troops to conquer him. Of course, if Da Cang didn't have those internal and external troubles, Su Wang Huangfu Mingze wouldn't have the guts to do this directly.
But it is precisely because of these internal and external troubles that now, compared to Huangfu Mingze, in a short period of time, these internal and external troubles are still more of a threat to Da Cang. Therefore, at this moment, it is really difficult for the court to mobilize forces to stop Huangfu Mingze.
Previously, when Shi Zhixuan had just joined Huangfu Mingze, his advice to Huangfu Mingze was to take charge of Yannan, secretly assist the three kings, and externally support them. When he was strong enough, he could even use that imperial edict to officially ascend the throne. Proclaimed himself emperor, competed with Huangfu Mingzhao for the title of righteousness, and challenged the court in a frontal arena.
As for external support, what kind of support is there in the world? Of course, it is the big wealthy family and the big family.
Needless to say, the four businessmen have money and food. No force can lack these things. If you have the support of the four merchants, it means that your power has the power to develop rapidly.
As for the Four Governments, that is, the Four General Governments, their power is more direct. With enough troops, they naturally have enough confidence.
As for the remaining aristocratic families, they have enough talents and connections. These big families are tied together through marriage. Therefore, even in the "struggle" with the imperial power, unless there is serious political turmoil, everyone will be fine.
Among them, the one closest to Huangfu Mingze is naturally Zhendong Mansion on Yanbei Road. After this battle, the prestige of Zhendong Mansion must be even greater. Therefore, Huangfu Mingze wanted to find ways to win Zhendong Mansion into his warship.
Of course, it is not easy to do this. For hundreds of years, the Four Towns General Mansion has always stood with the imperial court.
Even if any of the four towns' General Mansion has a counter-intention, it is actually difficult to have any soil for development. The four families are originally in an equal position. If one of them has a counter-intention, why should the remaining three support you instead of supporting the court?
Unless all four of these families want to stand up and become the boss, if only one has this intention, the other three families will not be able to support him! It is impossible for someone who originally had an equal status to choose to be inferior to others by being their little brother.
Are the Four Towns General Mansion powerful? Presumably few people would doubt this. However, only when all the four towns' general mansions are united can this force be strong enough and become a long-standing worry for the imperial court.
If only a single General's Mansion was taken out, it would not be a worry for the court. After all, a single general's mansion is still a little weak against the power of the imperial court. Not to mention, the general mansions of the four towns are all located on the border, which itself restrains a large number of their troops.
It is precisely based on this that the Four Towns General Mansion has been firmly standing behind the imperial court for hundreds of years and has been in a relatively stable state.
If Huangfu Mingze wants to gain the support of Zhendong Mansion, the chance is actually not great. After all, unless Huangfu Mingze has the ability to bring all four palaces over, otherwise, if one of them fails, it may cause the division of the four general palaces.
However, even if the chance is not great, Huangfu Mingze will always try. No matter how slim the chances are if you try, there is still a chance, but if you don't try, there is no chance at all.
