Capital Cabinet.

After Zhang Tingyu went through this experience, he was essentially the most powerful bachelor in the court, comparable to the prime ministers in the past.

However, this is only temporary. The power of the prime minister is divided into three parts and becomes a cabinet. It is the system of Daqi. Emperors with a little bit of brains will not let the power of the prime minister be concentrated in one person for a long time.

"Mr. Zhang Ge, have the National Protector Army, Golden Snake Guard and other troops made arrangements afterwards?" Qi Xingyun asked the question he was most concerned about as soon as he came up.

"Your Majesty, the National Protector Army is already on its way back to the Tongtian River Basin. The rebel army over there has learned about the split of the National Protector Army and is attacking the National Protector Army's flank garrison. They are in urgent need of support..."

"The Golden Snake Guard has been temporarily responsible for the defense of the outer palace. The people of the Flying Eagle Guard are being imprisoned outside the city and awaiting punishment."

Zhang Tingyu said.

"Flying Eagle Guards... let's lock them up for now. The leading ones will be interrogated and reviewed, but don't go to death." Qi Xingyun picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Most of the Flying Eagle Guards were deceived, but if they did something wrong, they would do something wrong. This was a serious crime of treason. If not all of them were beheaded, Qi Xingyun was already kind enough. He must not continue to use them.

After the matter of several armies has been discussed, it becomes other affairs of the government.

What surprised Qi Xingyun was that Dongling Academy did not participate this time. It seemed that, besides fighting for power and profit, the courtiers who came from Dongling Academy had a very keen sense of smell and knew how to advance and retreat.

Now that the imperial court is employing people, a group of scholars have no troops and no food. If they want to punish them, it is just a matter of issuing an edict.

So as long as no serious crime can be found on the surface, there is no need to pay special attention to it.

"Which direction is King Lu going?" Qi Xingyun asked.

"The direction of King Lu's escape was to the Western Regions. With him were thousands of cavalry and part of the Storm Guards who retreated. There were also those who joined in the middle, about tens of thousands of people." Zhang Tingyu said.

"Is it possible to stop him midway?" Qi Xingyun asked.

"It's difficult. Da Qi's troops in the west are very weak. They are all ordinary border troops, and they are very scattered. The borders in the Western Regions are all small countries. If there are dangerous passes, I'm afraid they can't be blocked.

." Zhang Tingyu said.

"Keep pursuing the pursuit. If you really can't catch up or stop him, forget about it. King Lu, after all, it's impossible to do anything anymore." Qi Xingyun sneered.

After the secret conversation ended, Zhang Tingyu left the palace and began to organize the affairs of the court.

The capital city, which was in chaos, had completely entered a state of martial law. All people entering and leaving the capital must have corresponding road signs and identity cards. Without these two, everyone would be arrested as spies.

Under such strict measures, some riots in the capital quickly subsided without causing waves.

…

In a warm hall, Zi Yan was leaning on a chair, half-squinting her eyes very comfortably.

There is a letter on the table.

This is sent via expedited means as quickly as possible.

After a while, the door outside opened and Li Qingyuan strode in from the outside.

He took off the coat he was wearing and hung it on a nearby rack, then sat not far in front of Zi Yan.

"The matter in the capital is over, Mr. Jiang, what should our Li family do next?" Li Qingyuan put his hands on his knees and looked at Zi Yan.

Zi Yan opened her eyes and said slowly: "The Li family is different from the Ji family. You succeeded the head of the Li family and surrendered to the court in advance. This time you have a lot of credit. It won't take long for the imperial edict of the capital and the

Rewards will be given, but..."

Li Qingyuan's heart tightened and he quickly asked: "But what will happen?"

"This time, the Li family and the Ji family each used thousands of private soldiers to enter the capital. This is a taboo thing."

"**** has issued an edict that those with assets can privately raise part of the nursing home. The number is customized. The Li family's private soldiers this time were recruited in the names of different people in the family and combined in one place.

It is already over the limit, and it uses sophisticated armor and weapons. If we really want to pursue it, this can be a crime of treason."

Zi Yan carefully explained the important relationship between before and after in detail.

"Then what should our Li family do?" Li Qingyuan asked tentatively. He was not too panicked. If the purple smoke really meant that the court wanted to capture him, it would not be like this.

"You have to do a few things. The first thing is to break up the private soldiers and relocate them, and hand over the armor and weapons to the court. The second thing is that the Li family takes the initiative to make a compromise and plead guilty to the emperor.

To be honest, after completing these two points, the Li family has basically passed the test. However, if you want to make the Li family better, then after you have straightened out the family business, then go to the capital and join

The world business alliance." Zi Yan said.

"I really want to thank Mr. Jiang this time. If it weren't for Mr. Jiang, the Li family would have completely fallen into the abyss this time." Li Qingyuan's words were extremely sincere.

This is natural. Li Qingyuan is really grateful to Zi Yan. Without Zi Yan's planning, how could he become the head of the family now.

"Later, you come with me to greet Li Qingyan. By then, there will be a big change in the Ji family." The corners of Zi Yan's lips raised. Everyone likes to hear good things, and she does the same.

"Isn't the Ji family in the same situation as me?" Li Qingyuan realized that he might have guessed wrong, but according to the news from the front, Ji Lianqi of the Ji family was clearly with the imperial court, otherwise how could he have defected at the same time?

?

"It's different. You'll know when the time comes. Clean up and we'll go welcome them back now." Zi Yan stood up and said.

Then, the door opened again.

Outside, Li Dahu and others walked in.

"Young Master Jiang, the carriage is ready and can leave at any time."

"Okay, let's go out of the city and meet Li Qingyan and Ji Lianqi outside the city."

Zi Yan was wearing a men's robe and her hair was in a bun. However, she did not deliberately pretend to be a man, but restored her original appearance.

Therefore, now Li Qingyuan and others already know what Zi Yan looks like, but they still call her Jiang Shao.

After leaving the house, there were two carriages parked in the yard, both of which were very simple in appearance.

"Get in the car, Li Qingyuan. When you get to my car, I can check your body."

Zi Yan got on the car first and glanced at Li Qingyuan.

Li Qingyuan was a little afraid of Zi Yan. He didn't want to get in the car with her in the first place, but now he had no choice but to follow behind and wait to get in the car.

The carriage looks very quaint on the outside, but it is very comfortable inside.

Li Qingyuan sat down next to him. After all, as soon as Zi Yan stretched out her hand, her fingers happened to be on Li Qingyuan's wrist.
