Japer had a dream, a very beautiful dream. In the dream, Qin Keqing was incredibly beautiful in her wedding dress.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Someone is coming to the palace. Your Majesty has summoned you to the palace. The guard's report broke Japer's dream.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty has ordered you to enter the palace immediately." Japer looked at the dead eunuch in front of him with a smile on his face with a speechless face. He was just a little bit close. He was just a little bit close. That's all. You can't be later. Come again?
"Ahem! Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law. Please take it to me to drink some tea. My prince is a little angry when he wakes up. Please forgive me." Zhang Zong said to the little eunuch who was passing the message after seeing his prince coughing like this. One hundred taels of silver notes.
"Then the servant will thank the prince. The servant is waiting for the prince outside." The little eunuch was still thinking about how he had offended this man. He knew the status of this man in the emperor's heart. He would not die if he offended him. Half disabled. After hearing what Zhang Zong said and giving him the banknote, the smile on his face became even brighter.
After a while, with a look of despair on his face, Japer put on his royal robes, was served by maids and maids, put on his golden crown and entered the palace with the little Xiyi Eunuch.
For the first time in the carriage, Japer felt a little resentful towards His Majesty the Emperor. Who was the good man who woke him up at Yin Shih (3-5 o'clock) and he was not going to court today.
Soon, under the leadership of Xiaoxi's father-in-law, they arrived at Longde Palace. After the briefing, Japer walked in.
"Your Majesty, Japer." Japer looked at the emperor on the throne who was reviewing the memorial before dawn and silently decided to forgive the emperor for disturbing his sweet dream.
"Yubai, please sit down for a while. I will read the memorial in my hand first." The emperor said without raising his head, pointing to the chair next to him.
Japer walked over without any courtesy and sat down. Soon the palace maid and eunuch brought pastries and tea. Japer didn't hesitate to take it and eat it.
The surrounding maids and eunuchs glanced at Japer with curiosity. You must know that no one has been treated like this since the emperor came to power. They all knew that the emperor favored Prince Zhongping, but they did not expect that he would be so favored.
Many palace maids also blushed when they saw Japer. Japer's appearance is not only charming, but he can also be said to be a handsome man. With his status and temperament, it can be said that girls will definitely like him. type. In short, those who are more handsome than me are not of higher status than me, and no one can beat me. Those who have a higher status than me, well, the emperor above is not as handsome as me.
"The main reason I came to you today is that the Emperor wants to see you, but it's still early, so I want to chat with you!" Japer was looking at a painting next to him when the emperor's slightly smiling voice came.
"Come and sit down. It's just you and me, the monarch and my minister. No need to be polite." Emperor Longchang said with a smile. The maids and eunuchs around him had already left.
"What do you think about the affairs in the DPRK? Say it with confidence. I won't blame you if you are wrong." The emperor said with a tone of examination.
"Your Majesty, I have just returned to the capital city. I don't know much about the affairs of the court, so I dare not talk nonsense." Jiapo looked at Emperor Longchang with a troubled face and said that I didn't understand anything just after I came back.
"Haha! Okay, then tell me what you know!" Emperor Longchang looked at Japer and nodded inwardly. Of course he knew that Japer had just come back and didn't understand the situation in the court. Although his teacher was also in the court, he couldn't But how could a mere seventh-grade Cheng Yelang understand the situation? If Japer had just started boasting, I'm afraid the emperor would have been labeled unstable in his mind. Now it seems that he is neither arrogant nor impatient, and knows how to advance and retreat.
"Your Majesty, please tell me about the military affairs." Japer looked at the emperor and said.
"My dear, speak frankly. I won't blame you if you are wrong!" The emperor became serious when he heard what Japer was going to say about the army. Since ancient times, the army has been the basis of power and imperial power, and Japer is a man who understands military affairs. The emperor naturally had to listen carefully.
Seeing the emperor say this, Japer said politely: "
1. The soldiers in our Daxing army only know the generals but not the emperor, which leads to a rapid decline in the effectiveness of army generals in various places once they are transferred away from combat;
2. The trend of greed for military merit is prevalent in the army. It is not that our Daxing soldiers cannot win the battle, but they feel that they have no chance to succeed even if they win the battle, and they feel negative;
3. There is a serious trend of empty pay in the army, and the majority of the army is old and weak soldiers;
4. The army has poor discipline and poor sense of obedience..."
As Japer talked about his views on the army, the emperor's eyes became more and more solemn. He knew that there were problems with the Daxing army, but he did not expect that the Daxing army had become so corrupt. If this continued, it would not be long before the entire Daxing army would become a complete waste.
"Your Majesty! The above are the issues that I have discovered. There are some omissions. Please forgive me!" After about half an hour, Japer finished speaking and said to the emperor.
"What Aiqing said is very good, and you are also very good. You are the only one who tells me the truth now." Emperor Longchang said with relief. Emperor Longchang knew some of these issues. After all, Jin Yiwei was also secretly investigating the situation in the army. But because Jinyiwei was established for such a short period of time, some things could not be found out.
"Ai Qing, do you have a solution?" Emperor Longchang looked at Japer expectantly with a smile on his face.
Hearing the emperor's words, Japer looked troubled. If word got out, he would be attacked by the civil and military forces of the dynasty. One or two or give him two years and he wouldn't be afraid of anything. But don't say it. The emperor was worried about him. Fortunately, you know it. If you don’t say it, you feel sorry for yourself. What should you do? This damn mouth!
The emperor felt relieved when he saw the troubled look on Japer's face. He knew that this boy must have a solution, and he was looking forward to it.
"Your Majesty, I have a way. I will tell you here today that I will kill the Longde palace minister who comes out and refuses to acknowledge it." Finally, Japer gritted his teeth and said. I have no choice but my conscience has taken over.
"Xia Shouzhong came in to serve.
The general guarding the palace obeyed the order and killed anyone who came within a hundred feet of Longde Palace. "Seeing what Jiapo said, the emperor also knew that what Jiapo said might cause turmoil in the court, and immediately issued an order.
"Yes! Your Majesty." As the emperor's order was issued, Xia Shouzhong walked in, and uniform footsteps immediately sounded outside the palace and dispersed in all directions. These people are the five thousand soldiers and horses that Jia Po brought back a few days ago. The emperor gave Jia one thousand as personal soldiers, and the remaining four thousand were appointed by the emperor as the imperial army to guard the palace. The original imperial army was arranged by the emperor outside the city. If it weren't for the fact that Judiguan still had to guard the city and could not mobilize manpower for the time being, the emperor would have wanted to bring back the more than 25,000 soldiers and horses to guard Shenjing City.
After the emperor made arrangements, Japer expressed his thoughts.
The first step: separate military and political affairs;
Step 2: Establish a military academy;
Step 3: Promote the benefits of being a soldier to soldiers, improve military treatment, and spread the idea of protecting the home and the country...
At first, the emperor and Xia Shouzhong were frightened when they heard it. Later, they became more and more happy as they listened. In the end, the emperor was walking around the palace excitedly.
After a while, Japer finally finished speaking and breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor became more and more excited as he read the plan written by Xia Shouzhong. The emperor believed that with these plans, Daxing's military strength could be greatly improved.
"This guy is really fucking talented." Looking at Japer in front of him, the emperor became more and more satisfied.
"Alas!" The emperor sighed as he looked at the plan.
"What's going on, Your Majesty? Why are you sighing?" Xia Shouzhong clearly saw the emperor's thoughts and quickly praised him.
"It's a pity that I can't find anyone to execute such a good plan." The emperor said while looking at Japer, as if to say: "Your kid proposed this plan, you tell me what to do!"
When Japer heard the emperor sighing, he cried out in his heart, and when he saw the look in the emperor's eyes, he said, "It's not appropriate for me to execute this plan. I have two candidates."
"Oh? Why aren't you suitable? Who are the candidates? Tell me." Emperor Longchang asked with a smile on his face and a playful voice.
Jia Po couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw Emperor Longchang's expression: "I have no foundation in the court. If it is difficult for me to do this, I recommend the chief minister of the court, Mr. Li Qiuran, and the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Mr. Zhang Chenchun."
After hearing Jiapo's recommendation of these two people, Emperor Longchang took a deep look at Jiapo and said, "You are not going to take revenge on them for being crowned king, are you?"
"Your Majesty! Don't you know whether it's true or not that the two of them stopped the king?" Japo said to Emperor Longchang with a speechless face.
"You kid!" Emperor Longchang smiled and shook his head.
When Li Shoufu and Zhang Shangshu used such lame reasons in the Fengtian Palace to prevent Jiapo from being crowned king, it was not so much to prevent Jiapo from being crowned king as they were to send a letter of surrender to the emperor, and to set up a personality for the emperor to win over Wu Xun. At the same time, he pushed himself and others to the opposite side of Xungui and Wuxun, so that the emperor could use him with confidence. Otherwise, with Jiapo's military achievements, normal people would know that the king must be made king, and they old foxes How could you not see it? Sure enough, those who play tricks have eight hundred eyes.
And these emperors only figured it out after the empress reminded the emperor after going to court.
"Ah! It's not cold today either, that's weird!"
At this time, Li Shoufu, who was fishing in his backyard, suddenly sneezed and muttered to himself.
"Ah! What's going on, that old guy Li Qiuran wants to plot against me?" Zhang Shangshu, who was reading in his study, also sneezed and thought to himself
It's a pity that these two old men, who have been in the officialdom for more than thirty years, were pushed out by a certain guy to be the executors of a plan that almost killed them. If they knew about it, they would probably fight Japer to the death.
