Phoenix Hairpin: Fanwai’s establishment (3)
Remember [] for a second
69 net 69, the fastest update of hairpin head phoenix! The news of Lichu reached Chu.
Lu Lin did not hide the joy in his heart, smiled and said to Li Xian: "I didn't expect that the emperor ordered the establishment of the reserve so early."
Over the past year, Li Xian has repeatedly volunteered to fight, and has made a lot of military exploits. Never arrogant in identity, and humble in everything, Lu Lin and Li Xian get along very well.
Li Xian's expression was a bit complicated, and he said in a low voice, "Second brother was hurt by the incident of the establishment of the Chu Chu. I sat on the dragon chair myself, and I didn't want Brother Jue to suffer any grievances, so I established the East Palace early."
If it wasn't for the wholehearted efforts of the Lu family, Li Jing's road to becoming a banker would have been even more ups and downs.
Nowadays, Li Jing has set up a reserve and announced it to the world, not only to stabilize people's hearts, but also to reward the Yue family. No matter what happens in the future, whether there will be other beauties in the palace or not, whether there will be a concubine prince, the crown prince is the eldest son Li Jue.
This point, Li Xian doesn't need to say it, Lu Linxin naturally understands,
Lu Lin said with a smile: "The ceremony of establishing the reserve will be in May next year. Let's move faster and return to Beijing as soon as possible."
Li Xian cleared up his confusion and smiled happily: "That's right."
After winning the battle, the aftermath cannot be less.
Thinking of Puyang Hou's memorial, Li Xian couldn't help but praise: "Puyang Hou took the initiative to submit the memorial, and asked Zhao's army to stay in Chu as a garrison. Such a high profile is really unexpected."
Lu Lin's eyes flashed, and he said meaningfully: "This is what Puyang Marquis excels at. Everything can't go against the sky, and pushing the boat with the current is the right way. Your son-in-law, you are all rare and intelligent people in the world. "
This is in praise of Li Xian's invitation to come to the land of Yanchu as the Overseer.
One emperor and one courtier.
When you're a prince, it's okay to be capricious. Anyway, the person sitting on the dragon chair is his own father. Now that the elder brother is the emperor, shouldn't the younger brother correct his position as soon as possible?
Li Xian laughed: "King Xingyang praised it so highly, but I was disrespectful, so I accepted it shamelessly."
After a few jokes, Li Xian said goodbye first and went to work on settling the Zhao family's army.
Zheng Zhong, who was guarding outside the military tent, slipped in and asked excitedly, "Is the emperor really going to establish a prince?"
"The imperial decree was announced to the world, and it was specially sent to the army, how could it be fake." Lu Lin spoke more intimately and casually to his eldest son-in-law: "The emperor is taking practical actions, The heart of the Anlu family."
He smiled solemnly, his eyebrows flashed with contentment: "The Meng family's army's remnants of defeated soldiers are only more than 20,000 people. The Zhao family's army only has 40,000. The Gong Yulin army has suffered a lot, and our Xingyang army has a large number of soldiers. We have made great achievements again and again, the emperor has always relied on us, and it is also appropriate to make brother Jue the crown prince.”
Lu Lin's smile faded, and he gave a fluttering and solemn look: "I will say this in private. In front of others, I have to be humble and low-key. If there are rumors of arrogance and frivolity, I broke your leg."
Zheng Zhong straightened his face right away: "Don't worry, father-in-law. How can I not know the importance of this? It's because I was so happy that I said a few more words in front of my father-in-law. In the future, no matter who I am in front of, I will keep my mouth shut. ."
Lu Lin's expression softened, and his voice softened: "Xiaoyu is the Queen of Great Wei, and Brother Jue is about to be established as the crown prince. Xingyang's army is strong and strong, and it is inevitable that it will give people a bad association."
"Why did the Marquis of Puyang hand over the 20,000 troops of the Zhao family on his own initiative? Isn't he afraid that the overstrength of the troops will cause the emperor to be afraid?"
"Now that the war is over, there is no need to raise so many soldiers. When I return to Beijing, I will file a memorial, and all soldiers with generals over 40 years old will be released to their hometowns. There will be no need to recruit new soldiers in the future."
Seriously surprised: "Father-in-law!"
The Xingyang Army has more than 40 veterans, at least one or two thousand. They are all seasoned veterans! If these veterans are returned to their hometown ~IndoMTL.com~ and no new soldiers are added, the strength of the Xingyang Army will be greatly reduced.
Lu Lin gave his son-in-law a reassuring look: "Don't get excited. I've thought about this for a long time."
"The fact that the Marquis of Guangping led the rebellion has far-reaching consequences. If I were the emperor, I would never allow any troops that could threaten the safety of the capital."
"It was precisely when the Marquis of Puyang saw this clearly that he took the initiative to file a memorial and weaken his military strength. This not only showed his loyalty, but also avoided all kinds of embarrassment."
"I am the father-in-law of the emperor, and I can't make things difficult for my son-in-law. These things cannot wait for the emperor to open his mouth, but take the initiative to do them."
"The total strength of the Xingyang Army can be maintained at around 50,000 in the future."
In the battle with the Meng family army, the Xingyang army lost 20,000. Over the past year, the Xingyang Army has lost nearly 10,000. After returning to the capital, the veterans will be returned to their hometowns. If you count eighty-eight, there will be around fifty thousand left.
Zheng Zhong felt a little depressed in his heart. He didn't say a word, and after a while he said, "Could it be that the emperor can't trust his father-in-law?"
Lu Lin said lightly: "Weng-in-law's feelings are one thing, and the general trend is another. It will be a matter of time to reduce the number of troops."
It's not a matter of believing it or not, it has to be done.
As the emperor, if you can't control the courtiers and generals, it is the real disaster.
Shenzheng let out a deep breath: "Since my father-in-law has made up his mind, I have nothing to say. In short, I am still very early to Lent. Just drive me home."
Lu Lin laughed, and patted Zheng Zhong's shoulder neither lightly nor heavy: "Okay, don't complain. The two Dabao brothers are not too small. After returning to Beijing, I will bring them all to the military camp. Good student training."
Mentioning about his son, solemnly felt much better and nodded with a smile.
