"Mother, do you know that my father intends to set up the Beiya Imperial Guard?" Zheng Ji asked softly.
"Beiya Forbidden Army?"
Concubine Jiang shook her head, not impressed at all.
Apart from settling accounts, she doesn't pay much attention to other things, especially matters in the DPRK and the military.
Firstly, he was really not interested, and secondly, it was to avoid arousing the emperor's wariness.
She already monopolizes the favor of the holy family, and she is still so concerned about the military and political affairs of the DPRK. Is it because she thinks her favor is too great?
Concubine Jiang would not do such stupid things, not even in private.
Zheng Ji patiently explained to her: "Mother, my father plans to recruit a group of private soldiers from the army. This idea should have come about after my father was assassinated last time. According to the information revealed by officials from the Ministry of War, my father plans to recruit these private soldiers." A group of private soldiers were stationed north of the palace to guard the north gate, called the "Beiya Forbidden Army". "
These are all the information Zhang Jian and Chang Dingsu learned from the Ministry of War.
This news is a secret of the country, and it is impossible for ordinary people to know it, but it is not that the slightest rumor has leaked out. This has been said by the father, and there is nothing that cannot be said to the mother and concubine.
There were sixteen guards in the Dade Dynasty. The official office of the sixteen guards was in the south of the palace. These sixteen guards commanded more than 600 Zhechong mansions in the world. Therefore, people used to call the generals and soldiers of these sixteen guards Nanyafu soldiers. Come to think of it, This is where the name of the Bei Ya Forbidden Army comes from.
One south and one north are symmetrical to each other and sound pleasing to the ear.
At this time, the emperor just wanted to recruit a group of private soldiers and add more guards to the Fengchen Guards and the four palace guards.
In order to protect himself and the royal family, it was understandable for his father to do this. Although the Sixteenth Guards General felt that he was being decentralized, he did not dare to object too much.
After all, the gap between the number of soldiers in the North Yamen Forbidden Army and the soldiers in the South Yamen Mansion is too huge, just like an earthworm and a big tree.
No one thought that the Bei Ya Forbidden Army would develop so quickly and become so large in the future. In just ten years, the Sixteen Guards would be replaced.
However, these are things for the future. Even the father must not have expected that at this time, the father just wanted to use the North Yamen Imperial Army and the South Yamen Mansion soldiers to interweave and guard each other to contain each other.
The reason why she wants to deal with Yu Youtang is because of these Beiya forbidden troops that have not yet been truly established!
Because, the commander of the Beiya Imperial Army whom my father favored was Yu Youtang!
Of course, this is all the father's plan, because now both the Ministry of War and the Sixteenth Guards General know that the commander-in-chief of the Beiya Forbidden Army is General Zuo Yiwei Shi Su.
Zuo Yiwei was one of the Sixteenth Guards. For the Sixteenth Guards General, the commander of the Beiya Imperial Army was still from the same camp. This was one of the reasons why they did not strongly object.
However, these Sixteenth Guards generals would not know that Shi Su was feeling unwell and would be bedridden in a few months, and would not be able to take over the post of commander-in-chief of the Beiya Imperial Army.
Therefore, by the time the recruitment of the Beiya Forbidden Army was completed, Shi Su had already resigned due to serious illness.
The first commander of the Beiya Forbidden Army was Yu Youtang!
Of course, the father already knew that Shi Su was ill at this time, but the father had his own plans in mind. Instead, he asked the officials of the Imperial Medical Office to conceal the matter in order to secretly make room for Yu Youtang.
In his previous life, Zheng Ji didn't even know about these things.
In this life, because she realized in advance that the prince was the person behind it, and because there were trustworthy people like Zhang Jian and Chang Dingli, she naturally knew more information.
Yu Youtang was a member of the emperor's father, and the Beiya imperial guards were his father's private soldiers. Of course, the emperor's father had to choose someone who was completely used and trusted by him to lead these imperial troops.
The father finally settled on Yu Youtang, which was really clever. After all, Yu Youtang was the leader of the East Palace Zuo, and he was the prince on the surface. Therefore, the person who actually commanded the Beiya Imperial Army was the prince.
The prince is the prince of the country, and many of the generals of the Sixteenth Guards secretly defected to the prince. Even if they did not join the prince, they were still willing to give the prince some face. Therefore, Yu Youtang became the commander-in-chief of the Beiya Imperial Army, but did not meet the prince. big obstacle.
I have to say that my father had a good plan.
But despite all the calculations, my father failed to realize that Yu Youtang was not his person, but the prince's person!
Long before Yu Youtang became the Zuo leader of the East Palace, he had already taken refuge with the prince. In fact, the reason why Yu Youtang became the bodyguard of Emperor Yongning was because of the Xue family's help. .
The father was clever but was misled by his cleverness. In the end, he just made wedding clothes for the prince.
She has a grudge against the prince Zheng Zheng. Now that she knows these things, she will never let Yu Youtang successfully take the position of commander-in-chief of the Beiya Imperial Army.
Recruiting the Beiya Imperial Army is not a simple matter, and it will take several months to complete. Zheng Ji originally thought that he still had time to slowly figure out how to deal with Yu Youtang.
Unexpectedly, the opportunity came to her unexpectedly.
It can deal with both Yu Youtang and Zhu Yi. Even if the situation is hastily set up, it is worth a try.
If she misses this opportunity, she will definitely regret it, she will regret it extremely!
If God doesn't take it, he will suffer the consequences; if he fails at the right time, he will suffer the consequences. She takes these words as a guideline.
She doesn't regret setting up this situation, and is confident that she can handle it well and smooth out all the troubles. However, the worries of Concubine Mu and Feng Ju and the others do make her feel guilty.
Concubine Jiang was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Her beauty changed several times, and she murmured: "Xiaojiu, how do you know these things?"
No wonder, all the adult princes want to leave the palace and open a palace. It can be seen that after leaving the palace and opening a palace, they have their own team, and the information is much better than in the palace.
How do you know these things? Zheng Ji only smiled and did not answer.
She will always know more if she lives an extra life, and she has the Changding Princess Mansion, the Jiang family, Dou Shiyuan Keyi and others, all of which are her help.
There is no need for the mother and concubine to know this.
Concubine Jiang moved her lips and wanted to say something, but she stopped.
Xiao Jiu's face was still much paler than usual. The injury was real. Although it was not serious, it was still injured.
Even after knowing so much information, having to make a judgment and decision in a very short period of time shows how much Xiaojiu usually thinks about it. After doing this, Xiaojiu still has to come to appease her mother-in-law...
As a mother-in-law, she is indeed worried about Xiaojiu, but besides worrying, what can she do for Xiaojiu?
The situation and difficulties Xiao Jiu is facing now are completely different from when she was in the palace. How can she, the concubine, help Xiao Jiu?
Zheng Ji saw Concubine Jiang's expression was different and couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Concubine, what's wrong with you?"
"Xiaojiu." Concubine Jiang sighed and said, "Isn't the mother-in-law useless? I can't help you with anything."
Zheng Ji was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook his head: "Concubine, why do you think so? Why do we want to help each other? As long as you are here, it is enough for me."
"First update!"
