The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 109: Formation of the Royal Guard

After he left, Qin Hao said to Feng Lao: "Feng Lao, thank you for your trouble. Please invite General Wang Jian over. I have something important to discuss with you."

Feng bowed and left at such a speed that both Duke Zhu and Grand Tutor Xie were amazed.

At this time, Xie An asked, "Your Highness, what exactly did you mean by the selection of the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue that you just mentioned in the court?"

Duke Zhu was completely confused. "Your Highness, are you trying to place our people in the Ministry of Revenue? I think this is a little difficult."

Qin Hao shook his head and said mysteriously: "Have you ever heard of the story of "One peach kills three warriors"? "

Neither of them had ever heard of it, and they were immediately filled with curiosity.

Qin Hao said slowly:

There was a king in the previous dynasty who had three warriors under his command. Because they did not take the king seriously, the king wanted to get rid of the three men.

So the king decided to give them a peach.

However, there was only one peach, and the three warriors all had great achievements, which caused the three warriors to compete for the credit, all wanting to monopolize the peach.

They argued with each other and finally decided to fight it out with force to fight for the ownership of the peach.

In the fierce battle, two warriors were defeated by their opponents one after another, but the third warrior, who couldn't bear to see his companions get hurt, stepped forward to stop the fight.

However, after the battle, the third warrior found that his two companions were dead and he himself was seriously injured, so he committed suicide in grief.

This is the story of "One peach kills three men".

After hearing this, the two of them gasped and exclaimed: "This move is very powerful, but it is also too insidious."

Qin Hao shook his head and said, "No, no, if none of the three accepted the peach, or if one accepted it and gave it to the other two, would this happen?"

"No matter what, it's all caused by the three of them fighting for fame and gain and being greedy."

"A greedy snake wants to swallow an elephant. Can a snake swallow an elephant? Even if it is full, it cannot swallow it."

Both of them nodded in agreement.

Xie An suddenly asked, "Your Highness, I am familiar with classics, history, essays, and anecdotes. How could I not know that this story was still circulating in Daliang during the previous dynasty?"

Qin Hao secretly laughed in his heart. This was a story from his previous life. How could you have heard of it? He had to make up an excuse and said, "I also saw it in a miscellaneous history book not long ago. I'll ask Ah Yue to look for it. If she finds it, I'll lend it to you for a few days."

Xie An obviously believed it, and quickly expressed his gratitude, and asked: "Your Highness, what should this old minister do next?"

Qin Hao touched his forehead and said with a smile: "Master Xie, Su Zhengfang and Dong Sicheng must want to place their own people in the position of Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. They will use this as a bargaining chip to exchange interests."

"This prince guesses that it is highly likely that Su Zhengfang will win and Dong Sicheng will compromise, because Su Zhengfang definitely doesn't want others to interfere in the Ministry of Revenue."

"So, you support Dong Sicheng. In this way, Su Zhengfang will definitely mistakenly think that Dong Sicheng is a two-faced person, and there will definitely be a rift between them. As long as they don't collude with each other, we will win."

Xie An nodded, thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I understand. I will make them feel resentful. It would be best to arrange Dong Sicheng's people to the Ministry of Revenue. In this way, the Ministry of Revenue will not be a solid block, and the temporary alliance between the two of them will also collapse."

Zhu Gui flattered him at the right time: "Great, it's really great. Those two old foxes will definitely not think of our plan."

"This is a conspiracy of the highest level. If you fight against me, I will let them know how to write the word death." Qin Hao said viciously.

Both of them were frightened by his ruthlessness.

Qin Hao saw the expressions of the two and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, I won't kill you after you've done your job."

"I treat my own people with the warmth of my family, but I treat my enemies with the coldness of autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. Otherwise, we will be the ones who get hurt, and the people of Daxia will suffer."

The two nodded at the same time, and then the three of them chatted about some details of the wedding.

Soon, Master Feng came with General Wang Jian.

Qin Hao got straight to the point and said, "Everyone here is my own, so I won't be polite and will just say it directly."

The four of them sat up straight, with solemn expressions, and listened attentively.

Qin Hao looked at the four people with a serious expression and said seriously: "This king wants to form the Jinyi Guard. What is the Jinyi Guard?"

"They are the shadow guards in public. After all, there are too few of them. They are more than enough to protect me. But if they are to handle other matters for me, they will be stretched to their limits."

After hearing this, the four of them nodded slightly and said that it was indeed the case.

Qin Hao patiently explained, "The Jinyiwei are my personal guards, and are not controlled by other officials. They report directly to me and are responsible to me."

"The main responsibility of the Jinyiwei is to monitor the officials and the royal family. Once they have found evidence of their crimes, they can arrest anyone except my father and me, no matter how high their official position is or whether they are royal family members, and conduct a closed trial."

"In addition, the Royal Guards also participated in activities such as collecting military intelligence, inciting enemy generals to defect, and going deep behind enemy lines."

"In short, the Jinyiwei is a knife in the hand of this king, strangling all dangers in the cradle. He and the shadow guards, one in the light and one in the dark, protect the safety of this king and maintain the stability of the court."

After Qin Hao finished speaking, everyone agreed and expressed their unconditional support.

It was in such an environment that the Jinyiwei, a troop that all enemies feared, was established and later became the nightmare of many enemies.

At this moment, Qin Hao's high emotions had been ignited, and he immediately issued the first order: "This king declares that the Jinyiwei is established."

"Master Feng, listen to my orders. I will appoint you as the first commander of the Royal Guards and you will be directly responsible to me."

"Old slave, take orders."

"General Wang Jian of the Left Camp and General Zhu Gui of the Vermillion Bird Guard, listen to my orders. I order you two to cooperate with Elder Feng to select the most suitable personnel from the entire army, including the special forces, to form the Jinyi Guard team."

"I accept your order."

"Prince's Grand Tutor Xie An, listen to my orders. I will appoint you as the temporary chief steward of the Jinyiwei. You will fully cooperate with Elder Feng in preparing the logistics of the Jinyiwei. You will be mainly responsible for the procurement of military supplies, daily necessities, horses and baggage, etc."

"Old minister, take your orders."

After the arrangements were completed, Qin Hao sighed and said in a deep voice: "Now my father's condition has worsened. There is a disaster in Hedong, treacherous ministers in power, vassal kings are fighting for power, and foreign enemies are eyeing us covetously. Daxia is in a precarious situation. Whether it can overcome this difficulty, I rely on you."

After saying this, he bowed to the four people.

Zhu Gui, Wang Jian and others immediately knelt down and said, "We swear to follow Your Highness till death."

"Okay." Qin Hao helped them up one by one.
