Chapter 174 It's an honor!

Imperial study room

Chu Tiankuo is reporting that he plans to reorganize the soldiers.

Now the official documents for conscription for military service in various places have been issued, and the villages near the capital have officially started conscription, and recruits are about to enter the barracks.

In the past few days, he has taken time to go to the barracks to watch the training of soldiers every day, learn about some soldiers, and probably know those generals. Loyal soldiers regroup.

A soldier's strength is only called strength when it is twisted into a ball, and when it is dispersed, a single tree cannot form a forest, so there is nothing to fear.

Usually, General Xie only trains troops in three major categories: cavalry, infantry, and archers.

Chu Tiankuo intends to further subdivide these three types of soldiers into spearmen, shield soldiers, sword and shield soldiers, archers, spear soldiers, light cavalry, iron cavalry, chariot soldiers, cavalry archers, and sailors for special purposes. The training is also a special training that integrates into the formation.

Since it is a special training, it is not a usual training. This time Chu Tiankuo used the excuse of preparing for the battle to subdivide the training, which is reasonable and reasonable. He used the simplest and most direct excuse to disperse the Xie family's cohesive strength in the army. But it can make General Xie not have any objections.

After all, it was just a special training to prepare for the battle and not for a long time. Naturally, there is no need to worry about the overall troop strength being affected by too small a division. General Xie had no excuse to object if he wanted to.

Appreciation flashed in the emperor's eyes, the Dongshan barracks had been controlled by the Xie family for many years, and there were many soldiers in it who obeyed the orders of the Xie family rather than the imperial court.

As long as the emperor thought of the scene in the dream, he would be afraid. After such a subdivision and then recruiting recruits, he could openly disperse those soldiers who were more loyal to the Xie family than to the imperial court, and weaken the prestige of the Xie family in the army.

The soldiers were originally the soldiers of the imperial court, but the people of the Xie family had been in control for a long time and established their prestige, so the soldiers would obey the orders of General Xie who had been in charge of the soldiers more.

After breaking up, they will be led by new soldiers and regain their prestige. Over time, those soldiers will follow the new generals.

The emperor also knew that Chu Tiankuo went to the barracks to inspect many soldiers in the past few days and refused to accept him, but if he refused again, this was his son, the prince of Chu!They all have to obey him!

Looking at the memorial, the emperor could imagine the expression on General Xie's expression when he knew that he had used such a simple and direct method to disperse the troops of his infantry for many years. It must be very exciting.

The emperor took a look at Chu Tiankuo, and he had waited too long for the day when he would grow up safely and be able to be alone.

The emperor closed the booklet: "Since I handed over the tiger talisman to you, I don't care how you train your troops. I just need to see that in the event of a war, the soldiers you have trained can resist Zhao Guo's troops. After all, Zhao Guo may send troops. It was all caused by you imprisoning Princess Zhao and not letting anyone go. Don’t let me see the people in the frontier suffering, let alone lose an inch of the country!”

Chu Tiankuo cupped his hands and said, "I obey."

The emperor nodded, and was about to ask Chu Tiankuo to retreat when Eunuch Lao walked in: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wen is begging to see you."

The emperor thought that Wen Ruiqing was going to hand over the tribute to the envoy of Zhao Guo, and the son of Zhao Guo would definitely mention the marriage.

He wanted to hear Chu Tiankuo's opinion, so he didn't let him back down, but said: "Xuan."

After Wen Ruiqing came in to salute the two, he said: "Your Majesty, the tribute has been checked with Zhao Guoshi and other envoys face to face. The Zhao Guo envoy group has received the tribute. This is the gift list signed by Zhao Guoshizi."

Eunuch Lao stepped forward to take the gift list and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor smiled and nodded after reading it: "Thanks for Wen Aiqing's hard work. Did the son of Zhao Guo say anything else? When is the Zhao Guo envoy group going to leave?"

Wen Ruiqing: "Going back to the emperor, the son of Zhao Guo said that he will leave after entering the palace to bid farewell to the emperor. The son of Zhao Guo also mentioned the marriage, but the son of Zhao Guo changed his words today. He wants Princess Funing to make a marriage."

Hearing this, Chu Tiankuo gave Wen Ruiqing a cold look.

The emperor's eyes sank when he heard the words, and he looked at Wen Ruiqing without blinking: "Princess Funing? Why did Prince Zhao suddenly change his mind?"

Wen Ruiqing was shocked and guilty by the eyes of the emperor and the prince.

The emperor loves Princess Changle so much, how come he is not happy to hear about the replacement.

"The son of Zhao Guo said that the eldest princess is already the most talented woman in our Chu country, and the master of Changle County is also a great talented woman. Let us..." Wen Ruiqing said what the son of Zhao Guo said anxiously.

Chu Tiankuo looked at him, and asked coldly: "Princess Funing went to marry, what does Mr. Wen think? After all, she is your daughter."

Under his gaze, Wen Ruiqing was inexplicably nervous, and his forehead began to sweat: "Going back to His Royal Highness, it is my daughter's honor to get married and contribute to the diplomatic relations between the two countries! But if you want to get married, who will get married, the emperor said Forget it, no matter who goes to get married, this minister will feel honored."

The emperor looked at Chu Tiankuo: "What does the prince think?"

Chu Tiankuo heard the words and said indifferently: "I feel that Princess Funing saved the lives of the queen mother and father, and sent Princess Funing to make a marriage. I think it would be great to marry Mrs. Wen to that Princess Huien of Zhao Guo!"

Wen Ruiqing: "..."

Princess Zhao Guohuien is the younger sister of King Zhao. She is in her 40s and looks very ugly. When she was young, she fell in love with a scholar who looked like Pan An. The scholar was married and would rather die than marry. Pet, and it is dedicated to seizing husbands!
Wen Ruiqing broke out in cold sweat: "His Royal Highness is joking! Hehe..."

"I'm not joking, seriously! Didn't Lord Wen say it was an honor? I think Mr. Zhao would like Lord Wen to make a marriage proposal very much! After all, Lord Wen knows how to serve the princess so well. Royal Father, I will send Lord Wen to the wedding ceremony this time." Let's go! The last marriage was a woman, so it's not appropriate to choose a woman this time. It's just right to choose a man this time! You can't follow Zhao Guo's wishes in everything. If things go on like this, Zhao Guo really thinks that our Chu country is easy to bully! He really treats our Chu country as a vassal state!"

Wen Ruiqing was so frightened that the clothes on his back were soaked, and he knelt down in fright: "His Royal Highness, please forgive me!"

Chu Tiankuo said indifferently: "What kind of life is spared? It's an honor!"

Wen Ruiqing: "."

The emperor saw that Wen Ruiqing was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. After all, he was the prince's son-in-law and the empress dowager's son-in-law. He coughed: "Okay, you all step back!"

Wen Ruiqing: "."

So who is the emperor planning to make a marriage?You can't really let yourself go to have a kiss?

Chu Tiankuo cupped his hands and said, "Your servant will leave."

When Chu Tiankuo appeared, Xing Nong was designing formations in the study, and there was already a thick stack of paper beside the table.

"Remember?" he asked.

"Not yet, brother isn't going to the barracks, why are you here?" Xing Nong put down his pen and looked up at him.

"I have something to tell you. The son of Zhao Guo changed his mind and asked Princess Funing to marry him."
