Changxia Tower is the city tower of Changxia Gate.

When the army went on a war, the emperor had a tradition of going upstairs to see off the soldiers and greeting the soldiers. For example, before Zhang Qian led his troops to the west to Jingyuan, the saint went to the west to see off the army. That time, it was really given away.

Military formations have been arranged in the open space outside Changxia Gate.

The person who returned was General Tu, with tens of thousands of soldiers wearing armor and spears standing on the spot.

There were also more than 3,000 warriors selected from each battalion, as well as more than 3,000 people who had made great achievements since their expedition, who came out from the side and walked slowly downstairs of Changxia.

They divided into several strands, and every time they passed, the sergeants in the array cheered in unison.

This is part of the military ceremony about the great reading.

In fact, it has been simplified. Generally speaking, strong bows and crossbows will be placed at this time for the emperor to review the warriors. Or choose strong horses for the soldiers to drive and attack, and drive horses and shoot straw men.

The emperor was intrigued and personally directed the soldiers sitting on the ground in armor, stood up and formed a formation to rush.

All civil and military officials, foreign guests, and scholars from all provinces came to watch, comment on their opinions, and everyone participated in the event. Even civil officials were interested in talking about the performances of the martial artists.

This is a tradition inherited from the "barbaric" Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and has continued to this day.

The emperor's military color is actually very strong, and the requirements for the emperor's civil governance may not be that high, but it is best to have martial arts and understand military strategies.

People near Duji can also come to watch it. In fact, they must come every time. They not only like to watch the school reviews, but also watch the battle of Yecheng. The melon-eating crowd who were watching the battle were beaten and caused riots.

Military rituals continued during the Five Dynasties period and lasted until the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty. Since Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty, it has become less and less and gradually disappeared. The military colors of the emperors of the Central Plains dynasty have become increasingly weak. Occasionally, someone who likes martial arts can't stand it, but the whole body is becoming more and more biased towards the literati emperor.

"Queen, these are all warriors, either skilled, or climbed first to attack the city, killed more than thieves, or were in the first place to conflict with the enemy, or captured the thieves alive and returned, a total of more than 3,300 people." Shao Shude introduced on the side.

The queen looked at it with great interest and suddenly asked, "How could the Grand Tutor know that there are more than 3,300 people?"

"This matter is easy, and those who are old in the battle formation will count." Shao Shude replied.

"I heard that the saints of the country participated in hunting and martial arts?" the queen asked.

"Yes." Shao Shude replied: "In the 13th year of Kaiyuan (725), Xuanzong held a field hunting, rode a horse and shot a hare with an arrow. Turkic envoy Ashinadejili took off his horse to retrieve his prey and offered it to Tian Khan."

"Can the Taifu shoot?"

"If the queen wants to do so, I will shoot some pheasants and the fox and rabbit come back to offer it, it will be not difficult."

What else the queen had to say, Feng Yanqing coughed.

Can you two male and female members be more restrained?

One is the queen who is about to destroy the country, and the other is the usurper who is about to establish the country. The former cannot hear the sorrow of the destruction of the country in his words, and the latter does not have the ruthlessness of the traitor at all. What are you doing? Princess Zhe came to Luoyang, and she was afraid that she would shoot the queen of the destruction of the country to death as a prey.

Shao Shude's face turned right and said, "Empress, according to the etiquette, it's time for me to go on."

"You just go." The queen said.

After saying that, she approached the female wall a little and looked down carefully.

After a while, a large group of cavalry rushed out of Changxia Gate. The leader was wearing a bright red military uniform. When he arrived in front of the formation, he immediately raised his whip and was majestic.

Suddenly, a roar like a tsunami sounded in the wilderness.

The sound waves from far to near makes people shocked, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"This..." The civil and military officials had only seen the Shen Ce Army line up.

To be fair, the group of little lambs are not bad in array, with all kinds of tricks, and it is dazzling.

The group of people in front of me were also in an array, but they were full of murderous aura, as if they were about to come up to chop people if they had a disagreement. The Shen Ce Army was pleasing to the eye.

Tsk, even the layman saw the gap, Shen Ce Army is well gone.

The queen was also startled. But her attention was different from that of others. She was always locked on Shao Shude. She looked at the man with his right hand raised high and shouted: "Where will it suddenly?"

"I will be here suddenly!" The 30,000 soldiers shouted together.

"Where will it suddenly?" He raised his hand high again and then cut it down with force.

"I'll be here suddenly!"

"Where will the sudden end?"

"Then I will kill here! Kill! Kill!"

There are three such things.

The queen had goose bumps all over her body, her slender hands clenched her fists, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

Chen took a cotton coat and put it on the queen. Then he was a little surprised. The queen's face turned red, not looking cold, but excited?

Shao Shude rode his horse through the entire military formation, and the sounds came one after another, and the soldiers were excited.

Zhu Pu and Xiao Lu looked at each other and laughed.

Is it possible that the saint still wants to bribe the generals after the assassination is successful and stabilize the soldiers?

"Empress." Feng Yanqing suddenly spoke: "I heard that the ancient philosophers all asked for talented people to help them to suppress the rebellion and protect the country. The Taifu knew the great and long-lasting skills and had ambitions to defeat Shen Yi. He brought power and plot to defeat the enemy, and encouraged sincerity to correct the times. He overcomes thorns and makes achievements, and has no troubles. He may either attack the east and sweep the darkness in Henan; or he may face the north and prepare the Great Wall in the north of the desert. With the laws of Rangju, the power of Yafu is a treasure minister of the country, and can provide great achievements for the emperor. It is better to give special encounters and achieve success."

The queen came to her senses, her voice a little hoarse, and said, "What the Grand Master said is so great. I don't know how to reward it?"

Feng Yanqing said in a stern manner: "The great master's achievements are great and heavy. I think that he can be allowed to enter the court without going to the court, and go to the palace with swords and shoes, praise and worship without being named, and add nine tins."

The ministers were silent.

The nine tins are nine kinds of objects given to the ministers by the emperor.

The first is the high-standard chariot and horse, which is not much different from the imperial chariot riding by the emperor; the second is the robes and robes; the third is the hanging joy in the palace; the fourth is the red door, which is the big red door; the fifth is the hubi, which is the specially-cutting of the ranks when he was on the court, which can be understood as a special passage; the sixth is the tiger, which is the number of guards, which is the special red bow, and the black special arrow, which can be used to kill those who are unrighteous; the eighth is the axe, which can be punished by those who are guilty; the ninth is the sacrificial ceremony, which uses wine.

After getting these nine things, you can see if you still have the same thing as other ministers?

Look at the robe and clothes on your body, and then look at the instrumental music that only the palace has. There are many armored soldiers around you, and you can kill people with bows, arrows, axes and halberds. Those who are still killed are still unrighteous people, and those who are guilty are still special passages when you go to court, and you can only walk.

In addition, if you don’t go to the court, you will go to the palace with swords and shoes, and you will not be named after you praise me. Is this a fucking minister?

"Serious." Queen He only hesitated for a moment and agreed.

She was hesitant and was reluctant to give these things. In fact, she had figured it out that the Tang Dynasty would sooner or later die, and it would not affect whether it would give these things or not.

She just felt a little regretful that she could not be the queen for a few days, and her fate was still ups and downs.

A warm shout came to mind down the city tower again.

The queen stopped watching and was not interested.

*******

The military ceremony of Changxia Gate ended at the You hour.

In this event, all civil and military officials were tool people. They blew the cold wind on the city tower, which was just to let Feng Yanqing come up with that sentence.

The three-piece set of usurping the throne, the first is to command the military affairs of China and abroad, the prime minister, and the general officials.

The Taifu Shao has completed this achievement of the Prime Minister, the General Secretary, and the Marshal of the various military and horses.

The second item: If you enter the court, you will not go to the palace, and you will not be called by your swords and shoes. The third item: Add nine tins.

I gave it together today. Of course, I have to give in.

When Shao Shude returned to Changxia Tower, he resigned on the spot. This was the first time.

Continue to follow the process later.

It is sad and ridiculous to say. Since the Western Zhou Dynasty, the word "ritual" has been passed down throughout the world. To this day, even the terrible usurpation of the throne has to be talked about "ritual".

Shao Shude suspected that it was invented by Wang Mang, and then after the interpretation of the usurpation of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties, the process has been completely standardized, which makes people laugh and cry.

It’s better than wearing a yellow robe directly! Guo Wei wore a yellow robe back then, and I don’t know if there was a dragon throne sitting there. I’m afraid there wasn’t in a hurry. This is really the ultimate simple style.

After the Lantern Festival, I spent a few peaceful days.

Every day, the ministers checked in to work, waiting for their wages. Shao Shude was busy and nervously. He was in charge of the Privy Council every day, and worked with the Privy Councilors to sort out military affairs and ponder detailed operating rules.

If you have an idea, if you want to implement it, you have to formulate rules and regulations. This system must be very detailed and cannot leave loopholes for others. Everyone is a veteran and is very familiar with the military affairs. When you say and say something, you will soon block the areas where Qiu Ba and others can use their cleverness.

When he was free, Shao Shude continued to play some exciting games with the queen.

The queen's dress has twelve keys, and Shao Shude has been completely untied.

Now I am no longer satisfied with leaving tooth marks on the double peaks. The queen has even been forced to change into a piece of clothing that covers the knees and knees in the middle, covering her thighs and knees. She wears it in the innermost part, somewhat similar to an apron. This thing is indeed easy to get dirty, and it is very uncomfortable to wear if it is dirty, so it must be replaced.

On the morning of the first lunar month, I will give you a day off.

Zhonghe Festival, give you a day off.

By the fifth day of the second month, all the items of Jiujin had been sent to Shaofu, except for the Aibi.

The person who came to deliver the utensils was an old acquaintance, Wang Pu, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice.

"I'll quit and take it back. Don't come again this month." Shao Shude said casually while looking at the map.

"As for the order." Wang Pu responded very simply.

"Mr. Wang, I have been thinking about rectifying the troops in various prefectures these days. Are you interested in serving in the Ministry of War?" Shao Shude asked.

Wang Pu was a little surprised. Has the decisive refuge at the critical moment finally received rewards?

He is a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, and he is mostly promoted to the Ministry of War. Could he be the Minister of the Ministry of War?

"I only obey the order of the Grand Tutor." Wang Pu replied.

Shao Shude smiled and said, "I asked you to go to the Ministry of War, but it is not just about rewarding merits, but about doing things."

"I understand." Wang Pu said.

"I have clarified the imperial guards in the southern yamen and the foreign soldiers in the northern yamen. Now I have to rectify the soldiers of the prefectures and counties in the world." Shao Shude said: "Zhili Road and Guanbei Road have set an example, and the response is acceptable. Next, I will collect the military power of the governors."

Wang Pu was shocked and said, "If Your Highness and the governor have no military power, once the place changes, it will be difficult to react in a hurry, and it may lead to disaster."

Shao Shude sighed and said nothing, this is the truth.

"You should go to the Ministry of War the day after tomorrow. Du Rangneng is coming back from Helong, and he will be the new Minister of War." Shao Shude waved his hand and asked him to leave.

The imperial guards, foreign soldiers, and prefectures and counties have been rectified, with all the problems and many things involved, so we really have to make good plans.
Chapter completed!
