Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

Good guy!

No wonder the heads of these four departments are so anxious, it turns out these four bastards have such big appetites.

Especially that guy Choi Sun-ki, he is really brave.

There were a total of 70 officials in the Shang Pharmacy, of whom only 22 were chief physicians and 46 were assistant physicians.

Cui Shenji poached 10 imperial physicians at once. No wonder Xu Yinzong, the calm old imperial physician, was so anxious.

Hey!

It’s not reassuring at all!

Just as Du He was surrounded by this group of people and complaining, Cui Shenji, Xiao Kai and Yu Chang looked at each other, and then trotted out of the Taiji Hall tacitly.

Du He is responsible for the mess, so they don’t have to worry about anything.

Qiu Xingyan said with a bitter face, "Duke Han Guo, you also know that these four people are going too far, right?"

"What do you think we should do about this..."

Those who served as chief officials in the Academy of Gewu could still hold official positions in the imperial court.

But those craftsmen who actually do the work, after they enter the Academy of Gewu, can no longer continue to work for the Chief of Works, the Chief of Military Equipment and the Minister of Agriculture!

Isn't this digging up their roots?

But His Majesty issued an order yesterday, allowing Du He to go to their department and select anyone he wanted, and they were not allowed to obstruct it.

What should we do!

Xu Yinzong also complained, "Duke Hanguo, the Shang Pharmacy needs to treat His Majesty, the Empresses, the Princesses, and the important ministers. You can't take everyone to the Institute of Gewu!"

"You are short of people here, you can go to the medical school to recruit people..."

The other two also pleaded with Du He to show mercy and give them a chance to live.

The other civil and military officials did not leave, but pricked up their ears and eavesdropped.

Cheng Yaojin picked his nose and asked, "What kind of people are Du He's men? A bunch of bandits?"

"More greedy than me!"

He had just heard every word of what these people had complained about.

To be honest, he was a rather greedy person. He didn't expect that the five chief officers appointed by Du He had much bigger appetites than him.

Today's young people are truly better than their predecessors!

Think about it.

Du He said with a chuckle, "Everyone, I understand your difficulties. Please also understand the arduous tasks of the Institute of Gewu."

"Since it's not easy for everyone, let's find a compromise solution."

"How about half the number?"

this...

The four of them were slightly stunned.

Even though the number of people was halved, the Academy of Sciences still wanted a lot of their craftsmen!

Moreover, the craftsmen who were poached were the masters with the most exquisite craftsmanship and were the pillars of their respective departments!

But when they thought of the banditry of Cui Shenji, Xiao Kai and others, they were filled with worries.

Thinking about it for a long time.

Zhang Jian, the Grand Supervisor of Military Equipment, was the first to speak: "Duke Hanguo, to help you run the Institute of Gewu, I am willing to provide you with 30 craftsmen!"

Damn!

He actually got ahead of them!

The other three did not continue to be vague and spoke out one after another.

"Lord Han Guo, the Director of Works will also provide 30 craftsmen to support you."

"The Ministry of Agriculture has produced 15 agricultural craftsmen!"

"Five imperial physicians from the Shang Pharmacy..."

When Du He heard that they agreed, a faint smile appeared on his face.

I didn't expect that Cui Shenji and Xiao Kai could actually get so many craftsmen after all their nonsense. Now the Academy of Sciences has its core craftsmen!

Not bad!

These guys really did a great job.

Du He bowed to them and said, "You all have a deep understanding of justice and a spirit of sacrifice. I admire you all."

The four of them didn't dare to accept Du Hexing's gift, so they all bowed and saluted.

"Korean Duke, thank you so much!"

"For the sake of the court and the country, this is what I should do."

Du He praised them a few more times, and then left Taiji Hall surrounded by officials from the Ministry of Revenue.

...

noon.

After Du He finished handling the government affairs of the Ministry of Revenue, he went to the Eastern Palace to eat and drink.

After eating and drinking enough.

Du He bowed to Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, I have some important matters to report to you privately."

Li Chengqian immediately waved to the eunuchs and palace maids, signaling them to leave Mingde Hall.

The attendants did not dare to be negligent. After they finished their greetings, they lowered their heads and walked out quickly.

There was silence for more than ten breaths.

Li Chengqian asked curiously, "Du He, what do you want to say?"

Du He grinned and said, "Your Highness, 5000 Mo Daos have been forged and are now on their way to Chang'an."

OK!

This batch of Mo Dao is finally forged!

Li Chengqian stood up excitedly: "Du He, once the Mo Dao is transported back to Chang'an, distribute it to the spies immediately!"

"it is good."

Du He nodded.

Although he was in charge of more than 100,000 soldiers in Yongzhou, most of these people were loyal to Li Shimin and could not direct their attacks against Li Shimin, Zhangsun Wuji and others.

The 5000 spies under the Eastern Palace were all Li Chengqian's trusted and loyal soldiers.

These people will fight for Li Chengqian at critical moments.

After talking about Mo Dao.

Du He changed the subject and said, "Your Highness, I plan to gradually replace the high-ranking generals in Yongzhou in the near future, eliminating the veterans in the Qin Palace and replacing them with some people we have promoted."

Li Chengqian's eyes lit up: "Du He, please implement the replacement of the general as soon as possible. I fully support you!"

It was already early March, and there were only seven months left until his scheduled ascension to the throne.

By controlling the more than 100,000 troops in Yongzhou, he can also seize the initiative.

"it is good!"

Du He responded with a serious expression on his face.

Then he chatted with Li Chengqian for a while, and then slowly left the East Palace and headed towards the Yongzhou Governor's Mansion.

Less than half an hour passed.

Du He, escorted by guards and imperial guards, strode into the Yongzhou Governor's Mansion.

When the officials of Yongzhou Mufu saw the unusual Du He walk in, they were stunned for a few breaths, and then they came forward to greet him.

"Meeting Du Fumu!"

Hearing the shouts of the officials, Yongzhou Beijia Jia Dunyi, Yongzhou Changshi Wang Renbiao, and Yongzhou Sima Xi Junmai hurried out of the office.

After they exchanged greetings, they all stood aside stiffly.

Du He smiled and said, "Sir Xi, I have something to say to you first. Please follow me to my office."

As the governor of Yongzhou, Du He has his own luxurious office.

The two men walked into the office, and then Xi Junmai closed the door at Du He's signal.

After sitting down.

Du He whispered, "Jun Mai, I need to take charge of Yongzhou's army of over 100,000 within three months. I must replace a number of core generals with those loyal to the Crown Prince."

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, we need to start from the lowest rank, starting from the Colonel, the Commandant of Resoluteness, the General of the Left and Right Guards, and the General of the Central Guards."

"As for the generals and great generals, they will be replaced at the end."

There was a pause.

Du He said in a deep voice, "Jun Mai, I leave this matter to you with full responsibility. I have asked the Imperial Censor Cui Shenji and the Wannian County Magistrate Pei Xingjian to cooperate with you!"

Hearing the order given by Du He, Xi Junmai stood up excitedly.

He said solemnly, "Don't worry, Lord Han Guo, I will do my best to complete it!"

Has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally made up his mind?

Your Majesty is plagued by a serious illness and is unable to handle state affairs, while His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise and courageous, and he should have ascended the throne long ago!
