In these short three days, Princess Ruyi not only issued many government decrees, but also established many independent departments affiliated with the court.
For example, the Tiangong Pavilion that Jing Yun was in charge of was affiliated with the Ministry of Industry, and the chief official was ranked third grade, but he directly took orders from the Queen Regent.
Another example is the Secret Investigation Department, which Li Mo is responsible for. It is affiliated with the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Its chief officer is the third rank, and it also directly takes orders from the Queen Regent.
There is also the Zhenwu Division in charge of Wuhou Li Dongxuan, which is affiliated with the Ministry of War. The chief officer is the second rank, and also directly takes orders from the Queen Regent.
It can be said that after Princess Ruyi's coquettish operation, she directly set up a small court, and it was completely her own small court, which can be called the inner court!
This made the civil and military officials feel a sense of crisis. They tried their best to find loopholes in these privileged departments and wanted to take advantage of them.
But Princess Ruyi simply threw their memorial aside and ignored it. Moreover, in the past three days, when Tiangong Pavilion has shone brightly and its reputation is at its peak, it is simply unrealistic for them to want to take part in Jingyun.
After all, it only took the skilled craftsmen of Tiangong Pavilion one day to repair all the walls of the imperial capital, and the next day they began to rebuild the imperial capital's defenses. In just three days, the entire imperial capital was impregnable!
It's hard not to admire this hand that transforms decay into magical power. Although there was no precedent for women entering the court as officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty except for female officials in the imperial court, Princess Ruyi set a precedent, so the civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty turned a blind eye to Jing Yun's participation in politics. .
After all, after contacting her, they discovered that Jing Yun was also a talented woman, and her talents were no less than those of Princess Ruyi.
There are even times when the suggestions put forward are like an antelope hanging its horns, standing tall and admirable.
A capable person will be respected wherever he goes. No matter men or women, they are all the same. Jing Yun completely impressed all the civil and military officials with her talent.
…………Imperial Court. The Hall of Nourishing Heart. In the past few days, Jiang Chen has been staying in the Yangxin Palace in the appearance and identity of Emperor Tianxiang, cultivating his body and soul, practicing Taoism, and occasionally going out to walk around and show his face to prove that he is not imprisoned or restricted in his personal freedom.
After all, you have to do a full set of performances to avoid being suspected by interested people.
"Jingyun, it turns out you always remember it, but it's a pity that we can never go back." Jiang Chen said with emotion after reading the identity information about Jingyun in his hand.
Jingyun is his ex-girlfriend Lanruo in the real world, and Jingyun is just her pseudonym. And Jingyun refers to Jingyun Square, which is at Longcheng University, where he and Lan Ruo first met.
Moreover, Lan Ruo entered the world of Xianxia earlier than he did. After all, this information shows that she once transformed into Mr. Jing and served as an aide to the Ninth Prince, and she worked there for several years.
As for the first time she appeared in the public eye, it seemed to be more than ten years ago. She probably hadn't graduated from college at that time, and it might have been because she broke up with Jiang Chenti after she could enter the world of Xianxia.
After all, the two of them were already in two different worlds at that time. It's ridiculous that Jiang Chen thought that she was hooked up with a rich man, but it's not to blame for Jiang Chen's wild imagination. Lan Ruo really got together with a rich second generation.
But now it seems that this may have all been a bad idea to make herself die. After all, the Ninth Prince's staff is not short of money.
Even today, several years later, Jiang Chen has figured this out and knows the truth, but the two of them are destined to never go back to their past.
From now on, she is the female prime minister next to the Empress of Zhou Dynasty, and he is the Taoist Chunyang who is free in the world.
The two should not have crossed paths before, and they will never cross paths in the future. Bridges will return to bridges, and roads will return to roads. Thinking of this, Jiang Chen suddenly felt relieved.
The two people are not meant to be together at all, and are destined not to be together. This information was collected by Princess Ruyi for him. Maybe Princess Ruyi had already known that he had a close relationship with Jing Yun, and Jiang Chen didn't expose it, even if it was the last bit of help he gave Lan Ruo.
After all, being with a king is like being with a tiger. Although Princess Ruyi and Lan Ruo are currently very close and intimate, once Princess Ruyi successfully ascends the throne and becomes the first empress of the Zhou Dynasty, everything may be different.
"Is Mr. Chunyang here?" Princess Ruyi gently opened the door of the Heart Palace and said loudly. Today, she is wearing a red palace dress with a phoenix pattern outlined in gold threads. She has a high bun with a golden bun on her head and minimal makeup. She looks graceful and luxurious. People dare not look directly.
"Your Highness, please come in." Jiang Chen's voice came from the Yangxin Hall. Accompanied by Yu Chan, Princess Ruyi pushed the door open and entered.
"Why are the princesses here? Is the Northern Liang Army of King Zhenbei coming to the imperial capital?" Jiang Chen's eyes stayed on Princess Ruyi for a few seconds, and he was briefly panicked, and then he asked.
"The King of Zhenbei and the Northern Liang Army retreated after receiving the imperial decree, and responded with a military report explaining the reason and expressing their surrender."
"This is also thanks to the appearance of Mr. Chunyang in the form of Emperor Tianxiang, which shocked the officials and let the world know that I did not imprison the emperor at all, let alone put him under house arrest."
"So the King of Zhenbei's army was unknown, and if he dared to continue going south, it would be disobeying the decree and intending to rebel. Therefore, he decisively chose to retreat when he was not sure that he could become king on his own."
"But his departure is like letting the tiger return to the mountain. Once I ascend the throne and proclaim myself emperor, he will probably be the first to rebel!" Princess Ruyi said.
"Although the Northern Liang army is brave and good at fighting, they are attacked from all sides. If he does not rebel, the court will provide him with food and grass supplies, and he can fight against the wolves, tigers and leopards from the north with peace of mind. But if he rebels, he will be attacked from both sides. The day of destruction is not far away.”
"As long as we stabilize him for the time being, and then integrate the legions within the Zhou Dynasty, as long as we have military power, we are not afraid of him jumping!" Jiang Chen said.
"I have been working on integrating the legions within the dynasty these past few days, but the Thirteenth Prince and the Ninth Prince, with the support of the Qi family and the Chen family, have rebelled."
"Speaking of which, it is also the fault of Emperor Zhou Wu. It was he who ordered that the internal affairs must be settled first before we attack the outside world. He wanted to eliminate the two unstable factors, the Thirteenth Prince and the Ninth Prince, before we arrived at the imperial capital."
"But he didn't expect that the two people would be so straightforward and directly rebel. He sent troops to attack, but they couldn't attack for a long time. The two began to grow bigger. After the Emperor Tianxiang issued the edict of sin, they even fought to change the world and do justice for heaven. slogan."
"Now Zhou Qi has occupied the entire Donghai County with the support of the Qi family, and under the call of Qi Zizi, the military god of the Qi family, many of his disciples and former officials from the entire Zhou Dynasty have led troops to join forces. In just a short period of time, three people have gathered There is an army of 100,000 and an East China Sea Navy secretly trained by the Qi family!"
"In addition, the ninth prince Zhou Ling occupied the entire Wenqu County with the support of the Chen family. Under the call of Chen Xuanli, the head of the Chen family, many talents from the Zhou Dynasty defected to him. Although the Chen family is a great Confucian family and has the ability to lead troops in war Not strong, but Confucian generals trained by Confucianism should not be underestimated."
"Now they are recruiting troops in Wenqu County. They have assembled an army of 200,000. Their overall strength is weaker than Zhou Ling's, but they can be considered bigger and stronger." Princess Ruyi said.
