Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 95

Li Song escorted Liu Xie through the Zhuque Gate of the Nangong Palace to the Chongde Hall. Liu Xie knelt on the emperor's throne, and Li Song and Baiguan knelt on the left and right sides.

"Li Aiqing! I will now confer the title of Sikong, Captain of Sili, and Lu Shangshushi, and I will also confer the title of Marquis of Wuping, holding a fake festival axe." Liu Xie said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Li Song hurriedly stood up and went out, kneeling down and thanking him with joy!

Hundreds of officials were shocked. The "false festival axe" represented the presence of the emperor in person, and was a symbol of the emperor and the country. With this thing in hand, he could exercise power on behalf of the emperor, such as entrusting princes with festivals, arresting criminals, suppressing rebellion, etc. .

Compared with Li Song's full of joy, Dong Cheng and others were unwilling, and Dong Cheng took the lead to rush out, kneeling down and saying: "Your Majesty! Absolutely not!"

Dong Cheng's daughter married the emperor Liu Xie, she was the head of the country, and when Liu Xie returned to the east, she served as a guardian!There is no such grace!How can he, Li Song, be able to build a palace?To get such a favor from the Son of Heaven!Let him "fake festival axe", so how can his heart be balanced.

"Dong Aiqing and all the dear ones! What's wrong with this?" Liu Xie looked at Dong Cheng and the others and said humanely.

Li Song also looked at Dong Cheng and the others who were kneeling on the ground sweating profusely. They didn't know what they were thinking, but there was a flash of light in his eyes.

Dong Cheng was panicked at this moment, he didn't know what to say for a moment, he opened his mouth, his mind was spinning rapidly, many thoughts appeared in his mind, but he couldn't think of a suitable one.

"Okay! Let's settle today's affairs like this! I'm tired! Retire!" Liu Xie waited and waited, but he didn't see what Dong Cheng had to say. Finally, he got impatient and waited under the respectful voices of all the officials. He flicked his sleeves and left, his good mood was disturbed.

After Liu Xie left, the officials also left. No one paid attention to Dong Cheng and others. Dong Cheng turned around and looked at Li Song's leaving back with resentment. A thought to get rid of Li Song grew in his heart. It laid the roots for the future "clothes belt edict" incident.

Back at Xuchang's residence, Li Song called all his subordinates to the conference hall to discuss matters.

In the meeting hall, Li Song sat at the main seat, and the rest of the civil and military officials sat on the left and right sides. The civil servants included Liu Bowen and Xu Maogong. Except for Bao Zhengyuan who was in Yanzhou, Li Song's advisers were all present. Except for Xue Rengui, Li Yuanba , Pei Yuanqing, Xiang Yu, Yu Wencheng and others all came.

"Dingfang! Can this Yuzhou be included in our territory?" Li Song looked at Su Dingfang on the left and said.

"This subordinate has the high expectations of the lord! So far, Yuzhou has not been fully controlled, not even a third." Su Dingfang stood up and saluted with fists, feeling ashamed in his heart.

"Why did this happen?" Li Song really couldn't figure out what was the reason for such a result. Before he left, he had already arranged everything, even if he couldn't control the whole Yuzhou, it would be fine if he won half of it. possible.

"My lord! The bandits and bullies in Yuzhou will not be difficult to deal with at that time, but there are shadows of local aristocratic families among them, and Yuan Shu from Huainan also secretly sent people here." Su Dingfang told everything.

"Humph! These aristocratic families are really bold! It seems that if you don't show some color, you won't know how to write the word restraint, and even this Yuan Shu dares to oppose me, and he will look good to him sooner or later." Li Song was angry. He patted the table, gritted his teeth and said.

"Let's put this aside for now! The most urgent thing is to do everything that needs to be done after the emperor moves the capital here to Xuchang." Li Song calmed down and said.

"I decided to establish a government named Tiance. The Tiance Mansion is the highest command of the army. It directly orders the soldiers and horses in the world. All important military and government affairs must be sent from the Tiance Mansion to be effective."

"Choose elite soldiers from the army, and form a new army called Qianniu Guard. The Qianniu Guard will be divided into left and right guards to jointly guard the safety of the imperial palace, the capital, and Tiance Mansion."

"The generals who command the left and right Qianniuwei are Weijiang, one on each side, two lieutenants under the command of the Weijiang, and several subordinate officials at various levels." Li Songdao, Cao Cao has a Tiger Guard, and I, Li Song, have Qianniuwei, and Cao Cao has Tigers and leopards ride, and I have the Xuanjia Army.

"My lord! Then who should lead the left and right Qianniu guards? Who will be the generals guarding the palace?" Pei Yuanqing stood up and asked.

As General Zuo, Pei Yuanqing didn't even know that the commander of the palace guards was General Wuguan Zhonglang. Obviously, he didn't understand the official position of the Han Dynasty, and the current Zhonglang General of Wuguan is Zhou Cang. If he knew, Then you will know who will be the general guarding the palace.

"General Zuo!" Zhang Liao got up and saluted Li Song first, then shouted to Pei Yuanqing, who turned around, and Zhang Liao continued, "The general in charge of the palace guard is a general with five senses, and any man over 50 years old Officials and court guards are all under his command! He is in charge of the gate of the palace of guards, and he goes out to charge chariots and rides."

Pei Yuanqing was taken aback when he heard this, isn't this gentleman with five senses Zhou Cang and Zhou Yuanfu!Pei Yuanqing turned his head and looked at Zhou Cang on the left, only to see Zhou Cang sitting there in an even and steady manner, without squinting. Pei Yuanqing felt a little embarrassed that the Lord was sitting there, and he still asked such questions.

"My lord! The emperor's edict is required to set up the post of General Guard, and all these matters are also very troublesome! Why don't you set up a general for the left and right Qianniu Guards, and let the left and right generals take over?" Liu Bowen stood up and said. , Pei Yuanqing took the opportunity to return to his position.

After thinking about it, Li Song also felt that it was true. Many people would disagree with the establishment of a general.

It's just that the duty of the left and right generals is not only to station troops on the border, but also to guard the capital. According to modern times, the left and right generals are not only the commander of the frontier defense, but also the commander of the guards.

If the guards are set up, they don't have to go to the frontier to garrison troops now. In this way, it means that they have nothing to do!They have become idlers, it is better to let them be in charge of Qianniuwei.

"The military adviser is right! Let the left and right generals command the left and right Qianniuwei! This lieutenant general! It's better to be called the lieutenant general." Li Song said after making up his mind.

"In this case! Let Yuanqing lead the left Qianniu guard, and Ding Fang command the right Qianniu guard!" Li Song said to Pei Yuanqing and Su Dingfang.

"No!" Pei Yuanqing and Su Dingfang hurriedly stood up, saluted Li Song, and sat down after answering.

"Recently, the spies came to report! Yang Feng colluded with the Baibo thieves Han Xian and Hu Cai, and there are [-] mobs under his command in the area of ​​Luoyang. They look down on me, Xuchang." Li Song continued after the two sat down.

"My lord! Why don't you send troops to attack them?" Pei Yuanqing asked.

"It's not the time to present yourself to the emperor!" Seeing that he finally had a chance to express his opinion, Xu Maogong hurriedly said first.

"Oh! Why is this? Master Xu might as well say it directly, so that everyone can understand." After Li Song said, everyone's eyes focused on Xu Maogong.

"After all, Yang Feng has done something to the emperor! In addition, he has not committed any crimes. Now if he shows up to the emperor, the emperor will think of his merits! He will definitely protect him! The emperor may even give him an official title in order to win over Yang Feng. No matter what, we can't do things that are cheap for others." Xu Mao said fairly.

"Then according to what the doctor said, what should we do? Should we just let it go?" Gao Shun asked.

"Of course not! Luoyang and the surrounding area are now ten rooms and nine empty. It's not that they have been in production for a long time. The [-] people of Yang Feng and others need a lot of food and grass to consume every day."

"Yang Feng was ordered to build Luoyang, but we are supplying all the food and grass needed. We only need to cut off the food and grass. When the time comes, they will run out of food and grass, and they will definitely send troops to loot everywhere. My lord, the emperor will send troops to attack Yang Feng. It can be regarded as a well-known teacher, and he will definitely be able to block the people's mouths, and solve Yang Feng's hidden danger in a legitimate way." Xu Maogong shook his feather fan lightly and smiled.
