Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 993

Changan.

Tai Chi Palace, Ganlu Palace.

A group of prime ministers surrounded the emperor's couch, with Empress Shan and Crown Prince Jiawen on one side.

The emperor leaned on the couch, and for the first time since he suffered a stroke for more than a month, he opened his mouth to speak a complete sentence.

"Where is Siye now? How is the battle in Tuyuhun?"

The emperor's voice was a little hoarse, and his words were slurred, but everyone still understood the meaning.Everyone was happy to see that the emperor had finally regained his clarity.

The queen was even more excited and burst into tears. She didn't know how she survived these days, and she lost a lot of weight.

"Your Majesty, everything is fine in the war on the western front. Don't worry about your Majesty, just let him rest in peace." Hou Mochen said.

Luo Cheng said, "Help me up a bit."

Another cushion was stuffed in the back, this posture made Luo Cheng a little more comfortable.

He was in a coma for seven days after the stroke, and then woke up, but he was also in a state of being speechless and unable to move. After a month of hard work, Sun Simiao tried his best to treat him, and he finally recovered well.

Although I still can't get out of bed and walk around now, at least I have regained some feeling in my hands and feet, I can lift my arms and feet a little, and I can barely turn over.

The most rare thing is that he has gradually been able to speak. From the beginning, he was vague and no one could understand. Now, everyone can understand most of them, and with a little guessing, he can communicate.

These days, for Luo Cheng, it is also extremely tormented. He also never imagined that he would suffer a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and stroke when he was fine.

The stroke hit him hard, and made him feel disheartened for a while. Fortunately, Sun Simiao's medical skills are very good, so he recovered so well in such a short period of time.

Now the emperor has finally cheered up, and has not heard anything outside the palace for a month. Now the emperor is eager to know how the situation outside is.

"I am the Son of Heaven, I want to know what is going on in this world, I am sick, but the court and the world cannot be sick."

Speaking a long series of words in one breath made the emperor a little tired.

"Your Majesty, you can rest in peace and leave the affairs of the foreign court to the prime ministers."

After Luo Cheng woke up, Wei Zheng and other prime ministers explained to the emperor, and briefly explained the situation of the court after his illness. For example, the political affairs hall immediately picked up the crown prince to come to Chang'an to supervise the country's regent, and for example, Guojiu now controls Chang'an. Outside the Gyeonggi camp, the Queen Shan also listened to the government behind the curtain.

There are all the prime ministers in the political affairs hall to assist the prince, and everything is fine in the court.

But when Luo Cheng asked about the Tuyuhun war, Wei Zheng only said that the war was under control and would end soon, but refused to discuss it in depth.

Luo Cheng immediately felt that the situation might not be as good as they said, otherwise, if the situation was good, they would definitely tell him.

He resumed speaking, but he was still out of bed.

Today's Emperor Luo Cheng could no longer leave the Ganlu Hall of the Tai Chi Palace, and the only people he could get close to were the servants in the palace, and the courtiers could only see the prime minister.

To Luo Cheng, it undoubtedly seemed to be isolated.

"Call Li Junxian, I want to ask him."

Wei Zheng said in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, you have just recovered a little bit now, and Sun Yaowang also said that you can't work hard now, let alone get emotional, you must lie down and recuperate, and you can't bear the slightest disturbance."

"Your Majesty, the palace is presided over by the empress, the court is presided over by the prime ministers of the political affairs hall, and the security of the capital is presided over by Cao Guogong and Shan Guoshu. As for the war in Tuyuhun, it is also in charge of the Privy Council and the Ministry of War. Don't worry, Your Majesty. We are all veterans of Your Majesty. Your Majesty should trust his loyalty and ability."

Luo Cheng said slowly, "I don't believe you, it's just that I really don't want to be a blind man with my eyes open, I don't want to be kept in the dark and know nothing about the outside world, how can I rest and recover in peace Well, it will only make my heart uneasy and my emotions hard to calm down."

·······
On the same day, the emperor summoned Li Junxian, Zhang Xutuo, Du Yan, Wen Yanbo, Wei Zheng and others individually.

The next day, the emperor issued an edict.

Doctor Yushi no longer has the title of Pingzhang under the same Zhongshumen, and will not enter the Zhengshitang.The privy envoy no longer has the title of Pingzhang under Tong Zhongshumen, and he will not enter the political affairs hall.

The emperor decreed that the Hanlin Academy should set up nine Diange bachelors, corresponding to the three provinces and six ministries.

The nine prime ministers in the Zhengshitang are the left and right servants of the three provinces, the two ministers of Zhongshu, the two servants of the sect, and the ministers of the Ministry of official affairs, ministers of the Ministry of war and ministers of the Ministry of civil affairs.The political affairs hall holds the right to vote.

However, the Imperial Academy has the right to criticize Zhu on behalf of Zhu, and the emperor temporarily gave the Imperial Academy the right to discuss politics.

In fact, the decision-making power was handed over to the Zhengshitang, the administrative power was handed over to the six ministries of the three provinces, and the power of discussion was handed over to the Imperial Academy. Withdrew from the Zhengshitang, and the academician of the Imperial Academy also withdrew from the Zhengshitang because he wanted to share the political power.

The withdrawal of the privy envoy from the political affairs hall means that the prime ministers have lost their military command power.

The Zhengshitang, the Hanlin Academy, and the six ministries of the three provinces are all in charge of decision-making, administration, and discussion. In fact, it is the separation of administrative, decision-making, and deliberation powers in the three provinces of Shangshu, Zhongshu, and Menxia in the early Sui Dynasty.

It's just that the system is filling in, so although the three provinces still exist, the six ministries of the three provinces are no longer in power.

This kind of phenomenon is actually a common phenomenon in the changes of the political system in the past dynasties. They are constantly patched up, and the patch is completely different from the beginning at the end.

On the surface, the crown prince is regent and supervises the country, and has the final decision-making power, and the queen is still behind the curtain to listen to the government and assist the prince, but in fact, the sick emperor still refuses to hand over power easily.

Even though all the prime ministers in the Zhengshitang are people he trusts, he doesn't want to hand over all the power to the Zhengshitang.

Chengzhi, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, and the three prime ministers, Yushitai Yushi and Privy Envoy, withdrew from the Zhengshitang, in fact, they directly deprived and restricted the power of the prime ministers in the Zhengshitang.

"Designate Changsun Wuji as Jing Zhaoyin."

"Edict Shan Xiongxin to be the general of the prince's Zuowei mansion."

After meeting Zhang Xutuo, the emperor summoned Wang Xuance who broke out from Dafeiling and came to Chang'an.

"Wang Xuance, are you willing to venture back to Dafei Ridge again?"

"Your Majesty, I am willing."

"Okay, now I will confer on you as a seventh-rank accompanying military school, and send a team of thousand cattle guards to follow you back to Dafeichuan. When you see Siye, tell him that the imperial court has not forgotten him and his brothers on Dafeiling. The Tuyuhun vassals invaded, and the imperial court has mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops, ready to wipe them out in one fell swoop, let them hold on for a while."

"Tell Siye and the soldiers on Dafei Mountain that the imperial court rewarded them for their achievements. Soldiers will be promoted to the first rank of the military rank, and the honor will be increased by one rank. The reward will be ten thousand, and the rank of the officer will be promoted by one rank. A reward of [-]. All those killed and disabled in battle will receive double the reward!"

Looking at the emperor's sick body, Wang Xuance was both worried for the emperor and happy for his own promotion.

The Peirong School is the first level of military officials in the newly adjusted scattered official system after the change of nobility not long ago. The original 29 levels of civil and military officials were changed to [-] levels each last time.

Wu Sanjie was the eight lieutenants, eight schools, eight generals, four generals and two generals, and Wen Sanjie was Balang, eight doctors, eight Sanqi regular servants, four Guanglu doctors, and two Kaifu.

The two highest generals of the Wu San rank are General Tian Ce of Zhengyi rank and General Zhu Guo of Cong Yi rank.The four generals are Hushi General, Fuguo General, Zhenjun General and Champion General.

The eight generals are from General Zhongwu to General Guerrilla, from the top four to the bottom five.

The eighth school is from the top six to the seventh, and the eighth lieutenant is the eighth to the ninth.

Wen Sanguan ranks [-]th, and the two highest Kaifu are Kaifu Yitong Sansi and Tongzhong Shumenxia Pingzhangshi.

Tong Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhang Shi, who was originally the title of prime minister, was changed to Congyipin Wensanguan.

And the nine prime ministers in Zhengshitang all add Tongping Zhangshi as prime ministers.

"I hope to see you in Chang'an triumphantly and Siye and other soldiers from the Western Expedition in the near future!" After the emperor finished speaking, he waved to him and patted him on the shoulder a few times, "Be sure to come back."

Wang Xuance burst into tears of excitement.

"I will live up to my mission. Even if I fly, I have to fly to Dafeiling. After I succeed, I have to climb, and I have to climb back to Chang'an City!"
