A journey to the heavens starting from the Red Mansion

Lin Mansion, study room.

Jia Min glanced at the official seal Daiyu held in her hand, then looked at Lin Yao and said softly:

"I once heard your grandfather say that military power is the most important power for emperors in all dynasties. It is like a double-edged sword that can be used to maintain rule, and can also be used by others to change dynasties.

Not to mention the military power of the capital city. If it were entrusted to one person, then he would be the unquestioned uncrowned king of Da Qi. He could completely seal his throat with a sword, so the military power was divided into five parts.

Excluding the large army and bodyguards stationed outside the city of Shenjing that cannot be moved lightly, the remaining military power of Shenjing is divided into three parts.

From high to low, there are more than 30,000 soldiers and horses under the nine admirals, more than 6,000 soldiers and yamen servants under Shuntian Prefecture Yin, and more than 2,500 soldiers and horses in the five cities. "

Then he looked at Lin Yao's thoughtful expression and continued: "The direction chosen is very good. The troops under Shuntian Mansion and Jiumen Admiral must not be moved lightly.

Otherwise, it is possible to communicate the thoughts of some caring people. With more than 36,000 people, there are too many things that can be done.

Under such circumstances, although the Wucheng Army and Horses Division had a small manpower, there were not many constraints on manpower mobilization. At most, they were supervised by the censor who patrolled the city.

Of course, if you can see this, others will naturally notice that this force may not seem to involve many people, but in fact it can also involve some relationships.

However, what you care about should not be the power itself, but its name, so that you can use our Lin family's guards as wings.

Although the general trend is ours, we still need to be cautious and not take it lightly. "

Lin Yao looked serious and took Jia Min's words into his heart.

Jia Min was born and raised as a son of a prince, and his understanding in this area was not comparable to that of ordinary ladies. After hearing this, Lin Yao understood the situation in Shenjing City better.

Nodding, Jia Min continued: "After all, this is a place that has been run by others for a long time. Your sudden intervention will definitely make some people uncomfortable. But what happened?"

Lin Yao smiled and said: "There were indeed people who were planning to do something small, but I gave them a small fine or two to scare the monkeys, and suppressed their thoughts..."

With that said, Lin Yao recounted what happened today.

After Jia Min heard this, he nodded thoughtfully and said softly: "What you did seems reckless, but in fact it is just right.

Just like the first few people you met at the gate of the Yamen before, they may have wanted to preemptively make some small moves, but they were intimidated by your momentum and did not dare to act rashly.

Presumably, Huang Yu, the former commander of Dongcheng, must have listened to the wishes of the people behind him and tested you. Not only that, if you dig deeper, you may encounter some surprises. "

Having said this, a contemptuous smile appeared on Jia Min's lips. These old guys were hurriedly trying to cause trouble before Lin Yao took office, which was obviously very problematic.

Lin Yao nodded in agreement and said, "I thought so too. Originally, I thought it was to see how good I was, or to give me, a person with an unstable foundation, a chance to show off, or even to try to sideline me. .

But after I felt the malice and tension in Huang Yu, I knew that this must not be simple, and there was no room for hypocrisy. "

"Oh, this statement is still a bit reluctant. You should have considered something else, right?"

Jia Min asked.

Lin Yao smiled and said, "Indeed, even if the person behind Huang Yu had his intention, he would not be able to confront him so blatantly.

If I had climbed to this position step by step through formal channels, or come here to get gold, they would have given me a blow, or even acted against me, which would make sense. In the end, I would have robbed him of his position. But as I serve as the commander of Dongcheng, anyone with a discerning eye can see the meaning of my forgery. I came to learn the skills of driving people so that I can use them later. I will leave soon.

But they were still too hasty, especially since I was appointed through the channel of the Emperor, and the person standing behind me was the Emperor, which made their approach somewhat unreasonable.

If Huang Yu could climb to such a position, he must be a person with long arms and good dancing. Why did he think of offending me when we met?

Therefore, I always feel that there must be something shady behind this, and if discovered, the consequences may be more serious than offending me. "

Daiyu was confused as she listened. Is this the adult world? It's so complicated.

If you don't have family members to protect you, you might be sold out, help count money, be eaten dry, and end up in a miserable state.

Thinking of this, Daiyu shuddered.

Jia Min glanced at Daiyu strangely. She clearly wanted this child to see more and become a knowledgeable child. Why did it sound weird to her?

I shivered out of nowhere. Could it be that I had a cold?

Thinking like this, he subconsciously reached out to touch Daiyu's forehead. After feeling the normal temperature, he felt relieved.

Seeing Daiyu looking up at him with doubtful eyes, Jia Min shook her head.

Then looking at Lin Yao with satisfaction, Jia Min said: "We consider all aspects when doing things, and we have made great progress in looking at the overall situation."

Lin Yao chuckled and said: "After all, it was through the influence of you and my father that I learned the truth that a person always has his purpose in doing things.

If not, the truth is that you haven't found the most critical motivation for his behavior yet. Now based on my guess, there may be some people who are one step ahead of us and hold two forces. "

Hearing this, Jia Min pondered for a moment, thought of a possibility, and said seriously: "More than that, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is inconspicuous, but in fact there are many things that can be accomplished.

Especially when you get together with those who are doing evil, there is no power of checks and balances, and the form becomes more unscrupulous, peeling off the oil and water from the people layer by layer.

The doorway here is very deep. People who walk in the gray area may not only attack Huang Yu, but also have many mouths eating together, forming an interest group that cannot be underestimated.

Coupled with drinking the blood of soldiers, it is no wonder that those soldiers are dressed in rags. They actually want to show you that there is no money in the yamen. If you encounter young people who act impulsively, I am afraid they will use their own money to subsidize them without saying a word. .

Or maybe you are asked to delve deeper and find the source from the bottom of the drinking soldier's blood. There will definitely be a lot of people involved, including the person in charge of the Ministry of War.

Of course, this involves a long way, but the decisive way you handled it just overturned all their calculations. "

As he spoke, Jia Min slowly suppressed his smile and said, "These people have evil intentions. If you find an opportunity after a while, eradicate them so as not to affect your plan for big things."

Lin Yao chuckled and said: "Don't worry, mother, I won't let these people go without you telling me. If I want to truly control the Dongcheng Bingma Division, these people are all stumbling blocks for me."

Jia Min nodded silently after hearing this.
