Half a year has passed in a flash, and the court has been very lively in the past six months. Today the minister is replaced, tomorrow the governor's house is confiscated, and there will be some disturbances every now and then.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the fierce battle between Shangguan and Yuwen families.

And Yuwen Hongru, who has peaches and plums all over the world, has also shown his true strength. Even if Shangguan Taiqing has the emperor standing behind him, he can only fight with the Yuwen family in a stalemate.

After all, you can't just take down an official without any crime, at least find some evidence. There is a bloody man in Longxi secretly, and it is extremely easy to search for some evidence. After all, how many ministers have clean butts? As long as

If you want to check, you can definitely find something.

As long as the two sides take action, they will definitely fight to the death.

Xue Chengyi from the Criminal Department is extremely busy. Today his house will be raided and tomorrow your house will be raided. There will be no idle day.

This saves both parties a lot of trouble. As long as the evidence is conclusive and placed on Xue Chengyi's desk, this corrupt official will never see the light of day again.

I don’t know when this fierce confrontation will come to an end, and I don’t know how it will end in the end...

Your Duke's Mansion

Shangguan Taiqing was dealing with various documents and memorials with a frown on his face, while Fifth Xinrou was busy beside him.

There were piles of documents and files on the desk, and Shangguan Taiqing's head was almost submerged in the pile of books.

This uncle-in-law has regarded his residence as the office of the Ministry of War. If the officials of the Ministry of War have something to report, they can only come to Shangguan Mansion by themselves. This is not really because he is lazy, but because he has no time to go to the Ministry of War.

In the past six months, Shangguan Taiqing was not only busy fighting against the Yuwen family, but also started to restructure the Ministry of War.

There are so-called three things to do when a new official takes office. Shangguan Taiqing wants to clean up the people left in the Yuwen family, so he naturally has to light up the fire even more.

Originally, the garrison in and around the capital was collectively called the Gyeonggi garrison. The organization was a bit confusing, and the generals at each level also came from complicated sources, and it was unclear who was who.

With Wu Xinrou's advice, help and planning, Shangguan Taiqing resolutely reorganized the Gyeonggi garrison into the Sixteenth Guards, as follows:

The left and right Yulin guards, the left and right Jinwu guards, the left and right Qianniu guards,

The left and right Yi guards, the left and right Wei guards, the left and right Xiao guards, the left and right Tun guards, and the left and right Hou guards.

Among them, Yulin, Kingo, and Senniu Six Guards were selected from elite veterans who had been on the battlefield, and were responsible for guarding the capital.

The imperial palace is guarded by the Royal Forest Army, and other military units cannot move.

The remaining ten guards simply recruited young and strong men from all over the country to join the army. After being drilled, they were incorporated into the army and stationed at important places around the capital. Their duties were similar to those of the previous Gyeonggi garrison.

Shangguan Taiqing's purpose of reorganizing the Sixteenth Guards is very simple. The military power in the hands of several border commanders is too heavy. He needs to cultivate an army to protect His Majesty's safety. Otherwise, if there is another rebellion in the future, it will be difficult to continue slowly.

Conscripting people into the army?

On the other hand, it is naturally to completely control the military power. Since the Sixteenth Guards have been reorganized, it is necessary to re-appoint the leading generals, so that everyone in Yuwen's line can be replaced.

Yu Wenchenghua had been the Minister of the Ministry of War for ten years. Many generals, captains, and captains in the army were promoted by him. These people are now a thorn in Shangguan Taiqing's eyes and must be eliminated.

According to the original plan, after reorganization, each guard would have between 10,000 and 20,000 troops, so in total, there would be nearly 300,000 troops available for mobilization around the capital.

But these two to three hundred thousand people cannot be gathered overnight, and a lot of work needs to be done.

After struggling for several months, the six guards in the capital barely managed to gather the number of people. The ten guards in the surrounding area only built a shelf, and the rest of the soldiers could only wait to be supplemented later. Moreover, now that the Ministry of Household Affairs has no money, and the Yuwen family has been

We are stuck, and we really can't muster an army of two to three hundred thousand people.

In short, the past six months have been turbulent in Beijing.

Everyone smelled that a storm was coming, and the quick ones began to choose sides, while the timid ones remained neutral and waited to see what would happen.

In such a large capital city, there are many talented people. In this kind of struggle between aristocratic families, it is a good idea to protect yourself wisely.

After reviewing the various memorials on the table, Shangguan Taiqing rubbed his brows tiredly and said with a wry smile:

"Xinrou, luckily I have your help, otherwise I would be too busy to do these things alone."

Rectifying the Gyeonggi army and fighting head-on with the Yuwen family are extremely labor-intensive, and Shangguan Taiqing cannot handle them alone.

Wu Xinrou's talent has been fully demonstrated in the past six months, and everything in his hands has been arranged in an orderly manner.

In addition, he accumulated great prestige in the counter-insurgency war, and many generals in the imperial court obeyed his advice, making things much smoother.

Several powerful counterattacks by the Shangguan faction were led by Wu Xinrou, and they took out several important figures in the hands of the Yuwen family, with remarkable results.

Fifth Xinrou seemed very busy, still writing furiously, and said without raising her head:

"Isn't it the duty of a subordinate to serve His Majesty and His Excellency?"

"Haha, you are still reliable~" Shangguan Taiqing smiled and picked up the memorial on the table, which was just delivered today.

"Crack!"

After just a few quick glances, Shangguan Taiqing slapped the memorial on the table angrily.

Fifth Xinrou raised her head curiously and asked:

"Sir, what's wrong?"

Shangguan Taiqing said angrily: "Wang Fang's house was confiscated yesterday, you bastard! The Yuwen family went too far!"

Fifth Xinrou understood, this Tongzhou Biejia was also from their faction, and he was relatively high-ranking and powerful, but he also fell in the struggle between the two factions.

This is already the second local official to be overthrown by the Yuwen family in a month. If things go on like this, Shangguan Taiqing will have no one to use.

Shangguan Taiqing looked very anxious. He put his hands behind his back and walked around the room, muttering:

"This Yuwen family is really difficult to deal with. I thought that with the Minister of War, we could fight them easily, but I didn't expect that they are still so strong."

Uncle Guo now feels a little regretful. He should not have had a quarrel with the Zhao family. Otherwise, he would have to save more effort in dealing with the Yuwen family.

The Zhao family held a staff department and had great advantages in selecting and appointing officials.

But now that you have made your choice, there is no regret pill to take.

Fifth Xinrou said calmly: "Yu Wen Hongru was an important official in the four dynasties, and his disciples and former officials were all over the world.

Yu Wenchenghua has controlled the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Household Affairs for many years. He has numerous hidden spies and secret agents. He also has the support of a powerful Longxi nobleman behind him. Naturally, it will not be easy to deal with him.

Fortunately, these days we have clearly killed many of their minions, and their strength has been further weakened."

Wu Xinrou's tone was calm, as if she was trying to persuade Shangguan Taiqing not to worry too much.
