On June 20, the Political Affairs Hall planned to establish Jiannan Road, and Shao Shude approved it to use Taichangqing Guo Fu as the governor.

Guo Fu is also a person with a temperament. The day after he was officially appointed, he had a big banquet at Peking Mansion, and he was not at all low-key.

Taichangqing and the governor were both third-rank officials, but which one is better depends on your opinion.

If you want to transfer to the center and have ambitions to the position of prime minister, you will often focus on the position of the chief official of the Nine Temples and make a transition.

Those who consciously go further and have no hope will tend to be a governor in the local area. After all, there is a lot of money and to be honest with the truth about power.

The advantages and disadvantages of Beijing officials and local officials are difficult to explain clearly.

Lao Guo knew that he could not be the prime minister, and he was not that material, so he might as well go to Jiannan Road and enjoy the fun of talking. After all, if you are in the capital, you are too close to the prime ministers, so he might turn on the road.

It's really depressing to come to your yamen just by a bend.

There is another unspeakable reason.

Jiannan Road was defeated by the King of Qin, so he must have arranged many officials in the local area - Duan Ning, the chief aide of the King of Qin, and is currently the Yin of Chengdu.

Lao Guo is a smart person. He feels that after taking office, he will inevitably deal with these people. If he operates well, he may be able to get in touch with the King of Qin, which will be of great benefit to future generations.

If you didn't say anything, hold a big banquet and celebrate it well.

As for whoever took over the position of Taichangqing after Guo Fu left office, the prime ministers tacitly did not mention it. Obviously, this was arbitrary decision by the saint Qiangang in Jinyang.

On June 28, Shao Shude summoned Ding Hui at He's house and asked him if he was willing to serve as Taichangqing.

"Your Majesty, Taichang is in charge of the rituals and music of the country, the suburbs and temples, and the country, can I do it?" Ding Hui was a little surprised.

His only talent in music was to sing. But he could not sing any song. He could not sing "He Manzi", which Emperor Wuzong of Tang Dynasty favored, was good at, and he could only sing elegies.

"It's okay." Shao Shude said: "A few miscellaneous things will be assisted by the assistant."

"Since that's the case, I will obey the order." Ding Hui replied with a little excitement.

Shao Shude smiled.

Wufu just didn't know how to hide his emotions. The titles of Taichangqing and the Marquis of Shifang County were solved by Ding Hui. Seeing his happy appearance, Shao Shude was also very satisfied.

"Before leaving office, there is something else to be resolved." Shao Shude said again: "I want to adapt the Youguo Army."

After saying that, he habitually observed Ding Hui's expression - he became accustomed to his old professional habits.

Ding Hui is still a little sad.

The Youguo Army was originally adapted from the Liang army stationed on Zhang Quanyi's territory. The largest scale was more than 20,000, but now it is only about 13,000 people.

Can't the last ten thousand people be saved? Ding Hui sighed and said, "Your Majesty is doing great things that benefit the country and the people. I will obey the sage order."

The answer was pretty good. Shao Shude was not sure if Ding Hui really understood what he said, but his attitude was very good. He was very satisfied, so he said: "You Guojun 13,000 people, first select 3,000 old and weak, and then fill in the

Be the state soldiers of Hedong Road."

The local armed forces in Hedong cannot be said to be gone, but they have also suffered severe weakening. The imperial court cannot station a large number of imperial guards in Hedong for a long time. In the end, it is necessary to establish a regular armed force at the state level, namely the state soldiers.

The three thousand old and weak people of the Youguo Army are just relatively old and weak. In fact, these few vulnerable troops these days. It is enough to use these three thousand people to suppress the area.

"I will eliminate seven thousand old men and women from the various departments of the Imperial Army." Shao Shude said again: "With these ten thousand people, Zelu and the basic soldiers of the eight prefectures in Hedong are here, so let's replenish the rest slowly."

The seven thousand imperial guards he mentioned here are actually related to disarmament.

I have been trying to reduce the number of the imperial guards before, reducing the number of troops from 30,000 to 25,000. But to this day, not all troops have completed the number of troops being reduced, and this time it just happened to squeeze this extra people over.

After all, this is a relatively moderate disarmament method. That is, no one is forced to be dismissed, and the number of troops will be reduced step by step through battlefield losses, natural discharge, etc.

Of course, if he encounters such an opportunity to form a state soldier, he will not let it go.

As for the elderly and weak, they naturally have weak resistance. But Shao Sheng did not give them a way to survive. Although the treatment of state soldiers is low, it is also a way.

For the elderly soldiers, being a state soldier can even extend their careers is not necessarily a bad thing.

"The remaining 10,000 people of the Youguo Army will be transferred to the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army will be transferred to the Youguo Army for 5,000 people." Shao Shude said again: "The Youguo Army's military name is still retained, as the tenth branch of the Imperial Army.

The entire army had a total of 25,000 troops, and the actual number was 10,000 people."

Ding Hui was a little surprised and said, "It's great to arrange this."

He was overjoyed to be dismissed from his old brother who worked together for many years and even supported each other. He had to be conscientious, and the Youguo Army brought him wealth and power. Of course, he did not want the Youguo Army to end up

A severance end.

Moreover, the Youguo Army had a relatively harmonious relationship with each other and had very few military chaos. Ding Hui did not hate the soldiers, but still hoped that they would be good.

"The former Longwu Army envoy Liu Hui was appointed as the envoy of the Youguo Army, and Kong Jie was appointed as the deputy envoy. Li Lin, the left-wing military envoy of the Tianxiong Army, was appointed as the Du Yuhou, and Wang Jia, the right-wing military envoy of the Wuwei Army, was appointed as the Du Youyi envoy.

Wang Yanwen served as the left wing military envoy, and Li Cunxin served as the right wing military envoy." Shao Shude said the arrangements of the six senior officers in one breath, and it was obvious that he had a vain.

Liu Xiu and Wang Yanwen are both from the original Longwu Army. The army has been transformed into a military force as a whole and has been rooted in Andong Mansion. The two have been idle for a while and are now re-activated.

Kong Xie was an old subordinate of Ding Hui and a member of Lao You's National Army. He was the deputy envoy to give Ding Hui a comfort.

Li Lin is a favorite disciple of Shao Sheng and is from martial arts.

Wang Jiao was a growing general of the Middle Ages of Kansai.

Li Cunxin was a veteran of Hedong. After the destruction of Youzhou Town, he fled back to Jinyang and then "unemployed".

He was a bit embarrassed to serve as the right wing envoy of Youguo Army. But considering his recent situation, it was not very bad. In short, love will not come, and it will not come down. The official position is short, and Shao Sheng is still

I want to give my own people more opportunities.

"The next one or two months, substantial reorganization will begin. Ding Qing can let the affairs of Taichang Temple be released first. It is important to assist the Privy Council in handling this matter well." Shao Shude reminded.

This is what we need to do to take advantage of our remaining energy and stand in the last shift.

"I obey the order." Ding Hui replied.

"The reorganization was completed in late August, and then--" Shao Shude smiled and said, "Ding Qing followed me north to Daizhou and buried the King of Jin."

Ding Hui was quite moved when he heard this. The saint meant that I was...

*******

On the first day of July, Shao Shude met Song Le who was coming from Luoyang in the Hezhai Back Garden.

"Your Majesty, when will you go to Luoyang?" Song Le frowned and said, "The main officials of the Political Affairs Hall, the Privy Council, and the six ministries and nine temples all ran to Peking. Luoyang has become an empty shell, and the ministers and a group of assistants have all gone to Beijing.

The official stared at him, and he couldn't make decisions about anything big—"

Shao Shude was unwilling to think that Song Le could swear words, and laughed.

"Your Majesty!" Song Le saw Shao Shude smirking, and he felt even more angry, and said loudly: "It's nothing. Most of the civil and military officials' families are in Luoyang. What do they look like after they have been there for several years?"

"I have rewarded so many beautiful girls..." Shao Shude was stunned.

There is definitely more than one person, but on average, there is more than two people per person - not enough?

But it doesn’t matter. Wang Rong has more than a thousand wives, so I’ll give you another try.

"Your Majesty--" Song Le stomped his feet and was about to continue spraying, but was stopped by Shao Shude.

"Why didn't they tell me? I wanted to go back to Luoyang and said it earlier. I didn't see a memorial." Shao Shude said.

"Your Majesty won consecutive battles in Hebei and won new Hedong. His prestige is rising. The prime ministers Chen, Xiao, Pei, Zhao, and Lu do not say anything. Can you count on others?" Song Le asked back.

Shao Shude smiled again. This made him feel relieved.

"After fighting the Khitan, I will go to Luoyang." Shao Shude closed his smile and said, "The truth."

Song Le felt a little relieved and bowed, "In this way, I have nothing to say. Although there are three capitals in the country, Tokyo is a fundamentally important place. Your Majesty cannot put the cart before the horse."

"Master Song has been too worried, too worried." Shao Shude hahad and said, "By the way, there will be a Japanese monk meeting today, Master Song may as well listen together."

"I obey the order." Song Le responded.

After a while, Pu Gu Chengen led Monk Huikong over.

"The Zen man Huikong pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom." Huikong bowed.

"Is Prince Zhenrufa who came to the dynasty with Master Hui'e in the dynasty in the Xuanzong Dynasty still alive?" Shao Shude looked at the Japanese monk. Seeing that he was not old and not tall, he was very obese, he was a little strange. He was treated by Japanese monks.

so good?

Prince Zhenrufa is the son of Emperor Hiraki, Japan and was once made the crown prince.

Before ascending the throne, Emperor Hiraki married Fujiwara Hayako's daughter, Danikawa, as his concubine, and later died. Then he continued to marry Fujiwara Hanikawa's nephew, Fujiwara Homoghus and Fujiwara Kako's daughter, who also entered the palace with his daughter.

Later, there was a case of the mother and daughter serving one husband together, that is, the inappropriate scandal of Emperor Hiraki.

Of course this is nothing. Emperor Hiraki also married three half-sisters, and his father even married three real sisters, which is not a problem.

In the fourth year of Datong, Japan (809), Emperor Hiraki gave way to his crown prince, Prince Kamio due to his physical discomfort.

Prince Kano ascended the throne and was the Emperor Saga. Emperor Saga repaid his love and made Prince Takao, the son of Emperor Hiraki, who was already the Supreme Emperor, the crown prince.

Later, Emperor Taichung was too fond of his mother-in-law Fujiwara Yako and under her instigation, he failed. The crown prince Prince Gaoyue was deposed and became a monk. He was the Zhenrufa Prince, also known as Prince Toutu.

Prince Tou Tuo devoted himself to worshiping Buddha and once followed Hui'e into the Tang Dynasty. This was recorded, but that's all.

"Your Majesty, Prince Zhenrufa has passed away forty years ago." Huikong replied.

Shao Shude nodded.

This is because he doesn't know the history of Japan. There is no record of the previous Tang Dynasty, and he has no way to know it.
