The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 144 Military Adjustment
Killers are being killed here in Xicheng, while Zhao Yanxun in the Prince's Mansion in Beicheng is having lunch in Yongfu Palace.

As a monarch, Zhao Yanxun has always emphasized frugality in this period of the end of the world.

So he lived an extremely simple life, one did not buy himself new clothes, and the other did not eat delicacies.

Only in this way can one set an example to his subjects and gain the respect of the people below.

But this kind of harsh life is not applicable in Zhao Yanxun's harem. Although the quality of life of the women in the harem has declined, it is still at a relatively high level.

Zhao Yanxun's lunch configuration is two dishes and one soup, but there are no restrictions in Yongfu Palace, as long as there are materials, he can cook them for him.

Looking at her husband sitting beside her, Xue Baojun took the initiative to pick up a piece of meat and carefully handed it to the bowl in front of Zhao Yanxun.

"My lord, you should eat more, my concubine sees that you have lost a lot!"

With a slight smile, Zhao Yanxun put the meat back into Xue Baoyun's bowl, and said: "The princess must make up for it. The current situation is difficult... This king failed to give you a good life, but let you suffer here in Longyou. It's for your husband." I'm sorry!"

Compared with the life in Yuanpinghou's Mansion, Xue Baoyun's life is indeed "difficult" now.

"Husband and wife are one body, and helping each other in the same boat is nothing, how can the prince be sorry for his concubine!"

"Besides, the prince is wise and mighty, and he protects his concubines well. It's too late for my concubines to be grateful!"

Xue Baojun's words were sincere, and even Zhao Yanxun was a little moved by what he said. This is indeed a virtuous wife.

"Since husband and wife are one body, why should I be grateful for taking good care of you?"

With a smile on Zhao Yanxun's face, he and Xue Baojun looked at each other at this moment, their eyes were full of affection.

At this moment, Huo An appeared outside the hall.

Glancing inside, seeing the prince and concubine looking at each other affectionately, Huo An obediently waited outside.

But his arrival cannot be hidden from Zhao Yanxun's perception.

"come in!"

Hearing the call, Huo An could only go in obediently.

"My lord, Cheng Wenguang has already answered!"

Zhao Yanxun asked while eating, "Tell me about it!"

Huo An quickly said: "Tian Jingtong confessed that it was the elder Wangge's order to make things difficult for the Wangfu!"

Nodded, although it was beyond Zhao Yanxun's expectations, it was actually reasonable.

Speaking of that old Wang Ge, Zhao Yanxun had a relationship with him a few months ago.

At the beginning, he was dragged by Concubine Duan to Qian'an Hall to seek justice from the emperor, but he was stopped by Chen Changhe when he came outside the hall. At that time, three cabinet scholars were present in the hall.

At that time, the three academicians walked out of the hall, led by an old man with a white beard, Wang Tinghe, the chief assistant of the cabinet.

It was Xue Baoyun who said: "My lord, my concubine heard from my father that this king's chief assistant has always been impartial, but I didn't expect..."

"Impartiality, this kind of thing can't be seen on the surface!" Zhao Yanxun sighed.

"What else?"

Huo An immediately replied: "His Royal Highness, Tian Jingtong and his family have been taken to the execution ground..."

Zhao Yanxun nodded, motioning for Huo An to continue.

"According to the lord's order, the guards department and the soldiers and horses department general banner and above officials have been notified, and we will see you in Yong'an hall in the next moment!"

There were no opponents in the city, so after a few days of thinking, Zhao Yanxun decided to carry out rectification of his army.

He already has a plan for the specific plan, and this matter is entirely up to him.

"Okay, you step back!"

Zhao Yanxun was having a meal here, and outside the Yong'an Hall at the southern end of the palace, military officers had rushed over one after another.

There are nearly a hundred officers above the General Banner of the Bingma Division and those above the Xiaoqi of the Guards Division.

The people of the two divisions are clearly on their side at this moment, and the hilltopism is beginning to take shape.

"There are quite a lot of people here today, and I don't know what the prince called me to wait for!"

"The people who came here today are all from the army. It must be related to military affairs. It seems that the palace is going to make a big move recently!"

While everyone was discussing, a eunuch on the platform of Yong'an Hall shouted loudly: "Your Highness calls you to enter the hall for an audience!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately lined up, divided into two groups and walked forward slowly, stepped up the steps and entered the hall.

Zhao Yanxun hadn't arrived at this moment, but the guards of Lin Dagui's front guard had already stood guard around Dan Bi.

Everyone was puzzled, but no one spoke, just waiting for Zhao Yanxun to arrive, everything will be clear.

After a long time, before the time came, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the back of the main hall.

"Your Highness is here!"

Following Huo An's shout, Zhao Yanxun's figure appeared from the screen on the left side of the main hall, and all the officers bowed down.

"See Your Majesty!"

At this moment, Zhao Yanxun had changed into the tuanlong round-collared robe, and was bowing down with the robe in one hand, walking slowly towards Majesty Dan.

After he took his seat on the throne, he opened his mouth and said, "Excuse me!"

Only then did the officers present get up, carefully raised their heads one by one, and looked at Zhao Yanxun, who was above Dan Bi.

"I called you here today just to say one thing!"

"Now that the recruitment of soldiers has been completed, the king has specially adjusted the manpower of the Guards Division and the Bingma Division!"

Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, but returned to normal in an instant.

"Bingma Division has split the existing two thousand-household offices into four thousand-household offices, and the manpower will be supplemented by newly recruited young men!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yanxun said to Huo An beside him: "Give the order!"

I saw Huo An take out a document, spread it out and read: "Your Highness orders!"

"Promote Xu Hong Fangsheng to be a soldier and horse commander with a thousand households..."

After being promoted to a thousand households, Fang Sheng rarely showed a smile, and immediately knelt down to thank him.

But Xu Hong, who heard the edict, couldn't be happy at the moment. He was transferred from the Guard Division to the Military Division, and his relationship with Zhao Yanxun became farther from now on.

As a hundred households of the Guard Division, Xu Hong knew very well how much Zhao Yanxun attached importance to the Guard Division.

"Thank you, my lord!"

Then, I heard Huo An continue to read: "Promote Xu Yu, the chief banner of the Guard Division, to a hundred households!"

Xu Yu is another talent that Zhao Yanxun discovered in the general banner.

Although this person is taciturn, he is a ruthless person, and he accepts death just like Lin Dagui.

After being called, Xu Yu walked out from the general banner, and saw that his face had a sinister look, making people want to stay away from him.

"Thank you, my lord!"

These are the three most critical positions today, and then Huo An read a lot of names, all of them are at the first level of the Xiaoqi General Banner in the Guard Division.

In order to control the Army and Horse Division, Zhao Yanxun recruited people from the Guard Division, promoted them to a higher rank and placed them there.

Of course, in order to show his fairness and impartiality, Zhao Yanxun also promoted some small flags and general flags of Bingmasi to serve in the newly formed two thousand households.

After reading a long list of names, Huo An's mouth was parched.

Getting up from the throne, Zhao Yanxun walked down to Majesty Dan slowly, glanced at the crowd of people kneeling in front of him, and said solemnly: "This order will take effect immediately, you are limited to build the army within seven days, do you understand?"

Everyone replied in unison: "I would like to obey the imperial edict!"
