The capital is not big, but it is not small either. Ningrong Street is the closest to the Forbidden City. Any movement will spread throughout the city.

Jia Xuan, the second master of Ningguo Mansion, whipped a servant under the archway. A dozen riders went to Jinling and Nanyang. The frequent movements attracted the attention of countless nobles in the capital.

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Yongping had a sinister look in his eyes. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, with thin eyebrows, thin eyes and pale lips. His face looked a bit mean. He looked in the direction of Ningrong Street and did not speak for a long time.

"His Majesty!"

"It might be a good thing for the Jia family to take action at this juncture."

In the shadows, a wheelchair slowly moved. A thin middle-aged man in black sat on the chair. He said expressionlessly,

"What do you mean, Master Wu?"

Emperor Yongping's dry lips moved.

"His Majesty"

"The garrison in the capital was established in the pre-Ming Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Taizu, there was a Beijing camp. During the reign of Emperor Taishang, there were 12 camps."

"The Beijing Battalion had more than 50,000 men, but their military equipment was lax, and they were old, weak, sick, and disabled. They were no match for the Twelve Regiments."

"The 12 regiments were divided into four military camps (Fen, Yao, Lian, Xian), four brave camps (Gan, Guo, Xiao, Gu), and four powerful camps (Li, Shen, Yang, Zhen)."

"Each camp had 15,000 men, totaling 180,000 men. Zheng Keshuang, Marquis of Fengyi, Wu Shifan, Marquis of Gongcheng, and Geng Siyi, Marquis of Shunyi, were selected to lead the vanguard. There were also twelve barons, namely, the barons led by the barons of Zhaoyi, Yonglie, Chengyi, Yan'en, Zhaoxin, Yongyi, and Xiangqin."

"The Yuan family only obeys the order of the retired emperor. If your majesty wants to get rid of the constraints, you have to start a new business."

Sitting in a wheelchair, Wu Sidao's eyes flickered with an inexplicable light.

Click! As soon as the words fell,

Su Peisheng, the minister of the Qianqing Palace, who was serving in front of him, shrank his pupils fiercely, and his eyes revealed a fear.

The world is called Yongping Kaiyuan, but in fact it is still in the hands of the retired emperor. If this word is spread, it will surely set off a storm.

"Master Wu wants me to win over the founding heroes?"

Emperor Yongping was not stupid, and he immediately thought of the key.

"Indeed!"

Wu Sidao continued:"The power of the founding lineage is not inferior to that of the Yuan Cong nobles."

"In the nine frontiers alone, Liaozhen Lieutenant General Nian Gengyao, Jizhen Lieutenant General Yue Zhongqi, Xuanfu Lieutenant General Ben Jinzhong, and Datong Lieutenant General Gan Guobao were all from the founding emperor's school."

"The other generals are closely related to the founding nobles, and their relationship is complicated."

"The Prince's Mansion of Xining, located in Hexi, and the Prince's Mansion of Nan'an, located in Yunnan, which one of them was not a descendant of the founding nobles?"

"Although Wang Ziteng, the governor of Beijing Camp, was from the lineage of the founding nobles, he was not a member of the Jia family after all. How could he gain their recognition? This was the key to the delay in the rectification of Beijing Camp and its quagmire."

"After the Emperor ascended the throne, he made use of the nobles from the Yuan Dynasty. The nobles from the founding of the country were gradually dying out, and they also needed opportunities."

"The Jia family's Dragon Guards only have 3,000 men. What can they do? But the Jia family's name is enough to resist thousands of troops."

"If Your Majesty can get the support of the Jia family, then the founding family will naturally obey your orders. Why should you be afraid of being constrained by the retired emperor?"

‘"Shua!!!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yongping's originally sinister eyes suddenly became extremely bright.

"Lin Ruhai's tactics in Lianghuai have cut off the financial resources of Prince Yi Zhong's mansion. Prince Yi Zhong has lost his financial resources and will definitely do something desperate."

"Then, at this time, Jia Xuan's appearance undoubtedly represents Jia Jing's attitude"

"Lin Ruhai's legitimate daughter happened to enter Ningguo Mansion. Isn't this God's will?"

Having said this, Wu Sidao stopped talking and retreated back into the shadows.

No matter what choice Jia Jing and the Jia family made, Lin Daiyu entered the mansion, not Rongguo Mansion, but Ningguo Mansion. This has already told outsiders that the Jia family and Prince Yi Zhong's Mansion have severed their friendship. This is the best answer for Emperor Yongping.

In any case, the Jia family and even the founding nobles now have no choice but Emperor Yongping.

"Master Wu, great advice!"

After taking a deep breath, Emperor Yongping came to his senses and said in a deep voice:"Imperial decree: The Jia family has a son who has served the country, which makes me very happy. I now appoint Jia Xuan as the Dragon Guard Captain, commanding 3,000 Dragon Guards, and grant him 3,000 Ujumchin horses."

"Yes!"

Su Peisheng, the internal minister of the Qianqing Palace, responded respectfully and went down to draft the edict.

Soon, the imperial edict arrived at the Daming Palace. Without the seal of the retired emperor, it was impossible to issue it, and it had no administrative effect.

"hehe!"

"When will the fourth brother change his petty nature?"

"As the eldest son of the Jia family, if he wants to win people's hearts, how can a small captain of Longxiang be used?"

Raising the imperial edict in his hand, the emperor's mouth was full of sarcasm.

According to the Dajing military system, five people form a group with a captain; ten people form a squad with a squad leader; fifty people form a general flag, one hundred people form a hundred households, five hundred people form a military marquis, one thousand people form a thousand households, three thousand people form a colonel, fifteen thousand people form a lieutenant, and above that there are titled generals and generals.

Among them, the thousand households are of the fifth rank, the colonel is of the fourth rank, the lieutenant is of the third rank, the titled general is of the second rank, and the general is of the first rank. The local garrison has a thousand households and a guard commander. The guard commander is of the third rank and commands 4,500 people.

"Emperor"

"The twenty branches of the Jia family were ordered to send one male off every year. Those under the age of fifteen would enter the Wutang, and those over the age of fifteen would enter the Longxiang Guard."

"They sent people to Nanyang Guanjun County to recruit soldiers." Dai

Quan, the internal minister of Daming Palace, stepped forward carefully and reported quietly.

The Qianlong Guard was in Dai Quan's hands, and any movement in Shenjing could not be hidden from him.

"Oh?"

The emperor stroked his long white beard and said excitedly,"It seems that Jia Jing, this Qilin child, is really extraordinary."

"Nanyang Guanjun County is the ancestral home of Jia Fu, the ancestor of the Jia family. He was given the title of Guanjun Hou because of his name. The people there have always worshipped martial arts."

"In the past, Dukes Ning and Rong recruited soldiers here, which led to the formation of a powerful army that swept across the world."

"In that case, give something."

"Yes!!!"

Dai Quan understood and slowly left the inner hall of Daming Palace.

Not long after, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to select and send them to Ningguo Mansion together with the imperial edict, attracting the attention of the people of Shenjing.
