Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 322 Undercurrent
New Chang'an Tai Chi Palace.

Hall of Liangyi.

This solemn and solemn Taiji Palace Nave has been selected by Liu Yizhen as the ruling place of the emperor, and all the government affairs of the emperor are handled here.

At this time Liu Yizhen had no time to pay attention to the war in the north.

"Your Majesty, someone in the south has taken action."

In the hall, Wang Xiu, Gao Yun, and Wang Maide sat down.

It is Wang Maide who is reporting to the emperor at the moment.

At this moment, the Minister of the Ministry of War already looked like an intelligence leader, and reported all the information about Jiankang.

"Some wealthy families, such as the four surnames of Wujun, the Zhou family of Runan, and the Jiang family of Jiyang, etc., all have some unusual behaviors. Not only are they hoarding food and weapons in their own manors, but according to the spies, there are faint voices of military training!"

"Are they all southern native families?"

Liu Yizhen asked again: "Is there any movement between the Wang family of Langya and the Xie family of Chenjun?"

"Not yet."

"..."

A moment of silence.

"Transfer the Yong'an government army from the west of Guanzhong, and exchange defense with the internal army currently stationed in Miyagi and Chang'an."

Liu Yizhen has always been cautious in taking measures to ensure his own safety.

"Not only Jiankang, but also Jingzhou and Shu. What about these places?"

Wang Maide's face showed embarrassment, but he hesitated in his words.

"Now... I still lack eyes and ears."

Although he controlled the central government, Liu Yizhen always felt that he was still missing something.

Compared with the aristocratic families that have been operating locally for a long time, the influence of imperial power is still too weak!

"I think about it..."

In this decisive battle with the family, what Liu Yizhen has to do is to cut off the hands and feet of the family, and then leave their bodies to nourish the country.

So Liu Yizhen still had a lot to prepare for.

"I haven't seen Du Ji for a long time."

It would be too wasteful to use a talent like Wang Maide to do intelligence work, but Du Ji is just right.

After Xuan Duji came.

Wang Xiu, Du Ji, Wang Maide, Gao Yun.

Liu Yizhen's four direct descendants unexpectedly gathered in Chang'an after several years of separation.

"This is really not what it used to be!"

After these years of training, these people have grown considerably.

Wang Xiu is good at selecting talents, appointing talents and using talents.

Wang Maide is good at governing the country, is familiar with people's livelihood, and has strategies.

Gao Yun is good at scheduling and can strategize.

Only Du Ji was thrown in Guanzhong by Liu Yizhen, and he was still there for many years...

Now when he saw Liu Yizhen again, Du Ji seemed to have had his edges and corners smoothed, and his eyes were full of wind and frost.

"His Majesty……"

"Is the master still okay?"

Originally, when Du Ji saw the three high-ranking colleagues, he was still a little bit sour and unhappy, but when Liu Yizhen was called out, Du Ji instantly burst into tears.

Your Majesty has not forgotten me!
In the early years when Liu Yudong returned, although he left behind many elite soldiers and generals.But in fact, only three people can be counted as Liu Yizhen's officials.

Long Shi Wang Xiu.

King Sima suppressed evil.

The master book is Du Ji.

Now that Liu Yizhen has ascended the throne, it is not an exaggeration to call them ministers of the hidden residence.

Now the emperor is still willing to call Du Ji "master book", which is enough to show that the emperor still recognizes Du Ji's identity!

For this alone, Du Ji felt that his "emptiness" in Guanzhong for the past few years was worth it!
"Hello, Chen."

"It just happens to be countless today. I will share the dinner with you. By the way, I will talk to you and your colleagues about your grievances over the years? Huh?"

With some humor, Liu Yizhen pulled Du Ji back into his circle of elders in a few words, which made the other three couldn't help but smile.

at the banquet.

Du Ji didn't pour out his bitterness, on the contrary, he told a lot of interesting stories in Guanzhong, which made the emperor and the other three people lean forward and backward with joy.

Three rounds of wine.

Seeing the closure of the palace, Wang Xiu, Wang Maide, and Gao Yun all retreated to their mansions, but Du Ji was left behind by the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the etiquette to stay in the inner palace at night..."

"What are you afraid of?"

Liu Yizhen waved his hand casually.

Now my queen and concubine are basically in Jiankang.Are you still afraid that Du Ji will mess up?
"I left you here to appease your resentment."

"I am frightened!"

Du Ji bent down again, expressing that he had no resentment.

"There must be. Wang Xiu is now one of the three high-ranking officials, Wang Maide and Gao Yun are all six ministers, but you are only a governor of a state. I have treated you badly."

At this moment, Du Ji obediently stopped talking.

The emperor said that if there is, then it is good, anyway, it is not a bad thing for him.

"But you do have to understand me."

Liu Yizhen played the emotional card skillfully.

"After Wang Xiu and I return to Jiankang, we need to keep people guarding the pass. And you are the best choice. Do you know why?"

Du Ji hesitated and said, "Is the minister a member of the Jingzhao Du clan?"

"Yes."

Liu Yizhen also admitted it openly.

Du Ji stayed with Liu Yizhen and became a senior official of the Liu Song regime in Guanzhong because he represented the Guanzhong family, and the court needed him to check and balance the Guanzhong family and Liu Song regime's official power in Guanzhong.

Liu Yizhen got up and came to Du Ji's side: "The aristocratic family, after all, is my confidant's serious trouble, and I have to guard against it."

This was the first time that the emperor showed the conflict between the imperial court and the aristocratic family to the world, and Du Ji was surprised by such an abrupt and explicit way.

"When the war is about to start, there is no need to hide it."

From Wang Maide's information, Liu Yizhen has already smelled blood and war.

"Does the master know my intention to come to Chang'an?"

"Move the capital."

"Your Majesty wants to move the capital!"

Du Ji naturally knew this secret, which was not a secret. Compared with the southern families who were mourning and concubine, the Guanzhong family and the northern family welcomed the emperor's move to Chang'an.

"That's right, move the capital."

"But moving the capital is not two words, nor is it that I will move the capital when I come to Chang'an."

Liu Yizhen suddenly changed the topic:
"The white porcelain business in Guanzhong must be getting better and better."

Du Ji understood immediately.

"What does Your Majesty want me to do?"

They are all smart people, and there is no need to talk around corners at this moment.

"Master Du, I need eyes and ears to keep an eye on my enemies."

"Drive the guards directly with your palms, serve as the eyes and ears of the emperor, patrolling and arresting the enemies of the emperor!"

"Master Du, do you want to do it?"

Liu Yizhen's words were like bursts of magic sounds, provoking Du Ji's heartstrings.

According to the emperor, this is to create an organization whose authority may be unimaginably huge?

Cut first and play later, the imperial power franchise...

Just thinking about what this institution might look like in the future makes Du Ji tremble all over.

"This organization must be established as soon as possible. Otherwise, Master Du may regret it for the rest of his life."

Du Ji suppressed the turmoil in his chest, and asked, "Why?"

"because……"

At this moment, Liu Yizhen is like a demon who is leading Du Ji into hell.

"I put all the family's century-old accumulation there, how much I can get... depends on Qing's ability!"
