"I'm afraid that the enemy will take Shenshu Camp with him and all his confidants." Wang Wenyan expressed concern. "Haha, are his confidants willing?" Feng Ziying sneered, "He went over to become the general of the Fifth Army Camp, but we won't give him the same promotion as his deputy. Are they still willing to go over? Once Qiu Shiben leaves, what will happen to the Shenshu Camp? The commander is now free, don’t they have any ideas?”
Divide and conquer is the simplest but most effective, it depends on how you operate it.
"Jiang Xinchang and Guo Jianben are both Qiu Shiben's confidants. We can ask Qiu Shiben for his opinion, and then..." Wu Yaoqing smiled and glanced at Wang Wenyan. Wang Wenyan also understood and laughed, "Yaoqing said Yes, but if Qiu Shiben suggested that one of them should go with him and one of them be promoted to the commander of the Shenshu Camp on the spot,..."
"The one who was promoted must be ecstatic and hate him to death for following him." Wu Yaoqing said leisurely, "Sir, you can totally do the opposite."
All three laughed.
"Okay, there's nothing to be afraid of in Shenshu Camp, but it's a mess here in Shenji Camp." Feng Ziying muttered: "What's even more troublesome is that the Third Guards Army, the Banner Guards, the Fourth Guards Camp, and the Warriors Camp are all fighting. The **Organization has not been moved for so many years, so it is a bit tricky to move these three armies."
"Sir, I have a different view than you. In my opinion, it is better for the three pro-in-arms to adjust. With the assassination of Emperor Qiuhuang in Tiefengshan, they are pulling one faction against another, inciting the three armies to be suspicious of each other, and to divide and disintegrate. It's easier. The imperial court just wants to take back control of the three armies and doesn't care about the combat effectiveness of the three armies, right? Originally, the three armies don't have much combat effectiveness, and may not even be as good as the Beijing camp. So what are you worried about?" Wang Wenyan Shaking his head slightly, he put forward his own opinion.
Feng Ziying was startled and then laughed. Wang Wenyan was right. The imperial court did not care about how strong the Shangsanqin army was. It was not their turn to fight. What the imperial court cared about was the control of this army, because What it controls is the imperial city, the court and the cabinet need this army to be responsible to the cabinet.
This meaning can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words, but when the power of appointing and removing the commander and deputy envoys of the Third Family Army rested with the Cabinet and the Ministry of War, it is not clear who has the power of palace confinement.
"I'm afraid Xia Bingzhong won't let go of this easily." Feng Ziying glanced at Wang Wenyan.
Xia Bingzhong is the chief eunuch and the chief eunuch. He is the nominal number one in the palace. He is also the first eunuch of Emperor Yonglong. He is also the nominal boss of the Third Imperial Army. If the Ministry of War wants to take back this military power, it must first deal with Xia Bingzhong.
"Qiu Shi'an and Zhou Peisheng are both taking advantage of Xia Bingzhong's power in the palace, and Dai Quan's return has made Xia Bingzhong a lonely man. Now he just lacks an opportunity." Wang Wenyan smiled calmly, "It depends on what you think, Xia Bingzhong." Either Qiu Shian or Zhou Peisheng, they can all be collaborators. They are all aware of the changes in the current situation. The power is no longer in the forbidden palace, but in the court, these eunuchs are smarter than anyone else."
"Oh?" Feng Ziying laughed, "They all found a way to come, or did you let them go?"
When Feng Ziying left Beijing for Liaodong, Feng Ziying told Wang Wenyan that since it was going to negotiate with Prince Yi Zhong, the imperial court would naturally have to take back the imperial military power. The Shangsanqin Army could not get around it, so it was normal to make plans early.
"Sir, there is no need for me to let loose. These eunuchs are very powerful. As soon as Mr. Zhisheng and you returned to the capital to serve as the right minister of the Ministry of War, they understood that Long Jinwei and the Ministry of Punishment had not yet responded to Qiu Yiyi of Tiewanshan Mountain. The case has been finalized. Isn't this just triggering the case but not bringing it forward? Xia, Qiu, Zhou, and even Dai Quan all realized the meaning. In addition, the three pro-in-arms, Miao Zhuang, Liao Junxiong, and Du Keli were also smart people. Naturally, they will find someone to pass on the message and find the way..."
Wang Wenyan has been in Beijing for so long, and under Feng Ziying's deliberate guidance, he has become more and more familiar with the situation in North Korea and China.
The Tianjia and the civil servants, civil servants and military officials headed by the Seven Ministries of the Cabinet, the imperial court and Nanjing, the Tianjia Yonglong Emperor's lineage and Prince Yizhong, these complicated relationships are intertwined, plus the various relationships derived from them Fang's power can be said to be a branch that spreads and spreads all over the body.
Feng Ziying told him bluntly that the court, that is, the civil servants in the cabinet, wanted to control the court situation in a more systematic and stable way, so they did not care whether they were loyal or loyal.
The prince is still a descendant of Emperor Yonglong, and he even hopes to use negotiations with Nanjing, or intentionally or unintentionally shows that he wants to push King Lu to the throne to put pressure on Nanjing, in order to seek the advantage of the entire system in this game process. Maximum authority.
In fact, Feng Ziying also admired these big guys for being able to reach an agreement quietly during the period when Emperor Yonglong was unconscious, and began to promote the construction of this institutional system in an orderly manner, and even brought Nanjing and the princes together. This kind of game has been used skillfully. It must be said that these big guys are masters at playing this game.
"That's good. I'm still thinking that I have to hand over the words. I also have to think about how to crush these parties and how to achieve the goals of the big guys. Now, if Xia Bingzhong and the others Our minds are starting to wander, so we have a lot more room for maneuver." Feng Ziying rubbed her chin and nodded, "Wen Yan, who do you think we should contact first? Xia Bingzhong or Qiu Shi'an?"
"Aren't you the closest to Zhou Peisheng, sir?" Wang Wenyan asked with a smile.
"Zhou Peisheng is too weak. He is not enough in the palace. At least Qiu Shi'an is needed." Feng Ziying shook her head, "Qiu Shi'an and Su Lingyao were in trouble. Dai Quan came back to serve Mei Yuexi. In theory, Xia Bingzhong should have He was in control of the overall situation, but the emperor's sudden coma made him lose his foundation. This step made him unable to rely on anything. At this moment, he was probably the most lost and dejected. Already..."
Feng Ziying's pondering also made Wang Wenyan realize something, "Sir, if this is the case, Xia Bingzhong, who is currently the most lost and weakest, may be the most exploitable..."
Feng Ziying laughed, "It seems so, but it depends on the investigation by Long Jinwei. In addition, Miao Zhuang, Liao Junxiong, and Du Keli also need to control the flag guard, warrior camp and four guard camp." Consider it, but there is no rush, we still have time, and there is a lot of room for maneuver here." This is the most important task for me in the next step, and it is also the most effective way for me to intervene in the court situation. As long as I can do this, If you continue, you will be able to reap greater benefits than the Liaodong War.
