After the gentry and common people's struggle, after the gentry was fully corrupted and degenerated, just like the gentry defeated the nobles, the common people won a complete victory. The events represented by the Zhuquemen's books sold were announced to the whole world and the entire era that the gentry had failed. The five surnames and seven hopes, which were unattainable in the past, have lost their status and the value of their existence. From then on, the Tang Dynasty will be a complete centralized empire, no longer like another time and space, where big countries trap small countries, and many local governments cannot get involved.

In the military, the inheritance and construction of the general army was completely separated from the political struggle of the court through the military university and the General Staff Headquarters. The generals in the military did not have political power. All the generals who entered the military university and the General Staff Headquarters removed their actual positions related to government affairs, and even removed all those, without even the false title. The complete military bosses no longer participated in government affairs, and even no longer entered the court.

Of course, this is not certain. There are still some generals in the army who are quite jealous of political power, such as Hou Junji and others. They don’t know where he wants to power. When Li Jing talked with Suning about the affairs of the General Staff Headquarters and Military University several times, he thought that Hou Junji was a very unstable factor. He was not a simple soldier, but a bit like those anti-kings, not only the army, but also the territory.

Suning felt a stern at that time. Hou Junji, in another time and space, was determined to be the prime minister. It was not a time when the Tang Dynasty had separated military and political affairs. If it was the prime minister, it would be impossible for a general. However, at this time, the military and political affairs had been separated. His Majesty Li Er would not destroy the Great Wall and would not ignore the great situation because of Hou Junji. Suning agreed with this.

Hou Junji is indeed an uncertain factor. Even without the Li Chengqian rebellion, he probably would have done something else because he wanted to pursue political power. He is now the number one in the military. After Li Jing retreated, only Li Shiji could compete with him. However, Li Shiji was known for advancing and retreating and did not compete with Hou Junji. Therefore, after Hou Junji took over the power of the army, he was a little uneasy. He expressed his desire to make great military achievements and become the prime minister and shine his family.

Li Jing has retreated from the court. He is in a semi-retired state, but he has not completely withdrawn. Moreover, he is the actual leader of the military university, holding the educational rights of the best group of officers in the Tang army. His status in the army is only higher than before and is not lower than before, but he has not participated directly. Even so, His Majesty Li Er also gave Li Jing the title of honorary staff officer at the General Staff Headquarters, with only two people in the Tang Dynasty, and the other one is Qin Qiong.

Therefore, the generals in the army would not ignore Li Jing, but regarded him as an retired senior. Compared with his previous alienation, he now has a little more respect. Li Jing's military skills have entered the realm of transformation. In the Tang Dynasty, Hou Junji was willing to give him a disadvantage. Therefore, he didn't know what Hou Junji used, so he asked His Majesty Li Er to ask Li Jing to grant Hou Junji some military skills. Li Jing was not easy to refuse, so he granted him some military skills. As time went by. Li Jing was no longer willing to continue.

Li Jing said that he didn't want to say much, but no matter what, he would not grant the remaining military tactics to Hou Junji. He had learned enough. His Majesty Li Er was embarrassed to force Li Jing. After all, he gave up the power of the head of the army and the power of the prime minister. He went to a military university to retire. If he didn't let others take good care of his retirement, it would seem that His Majesty Li Er was too strict, so His Majesty Li Er would not say much. This made Hou Junji very unhappy.

Suning was a little distressed. He originally pointed out that Li Chengqian was more peaceful. When Li Chengqian was peaceful, Hou Junji would be more peaceful. Who knew that Hou Junji was because of his own reasons, but he just happened to run into Li Chengqian and joined forces with Li Chengqian to rebel. Speaking of which, this guy is a person with the potential to be a 25-year-old boy. During this period, Hou Junji was studying hard to make up for the gap left by his ignorance when he was young. Everyone praised him, but Li Jing felt that something big was not good.

Isn’t this just about being prime minister? That’s why I have to learn how to be a prime minister... This guy is really going to prepare for the future!

The Tang army finally stabilized and the separation of military and political affairs was finally established, but it was still very fragile. Hou Junji's strength was too strong. Once an attack occurred, the order would be broken. We must come up with countermeasures. Otherwise, years of planning would be destroyed. With a precedent, countless people would follow one after another. Those soldiers with dissenting intentions would also seek political power! This is absolutely not feasible!

The most urgent task is to strengthen the power of literati. The power of military personnel has been consolidated and steadily strengthened. The military university staff headquarters took a two-pronged approach. The power of military personnel is unprecedentedly powerful. His Majesty Li Er also relied on the power of military personnel to defeat the Shandong gentry. The power of literati was greatly reduced. During the period when the power of wealthy families declined and the power of poor families had not yet grown up, it was the period when military personnel were most likely to interfere in politics.

The way of civil and military affairs is to open and relax, and it is the left and right arms of the country. If any arm is wrong, this person will have problems. The Tang Dynasty is too strong and its military strength is too strong, and there is a lack of matching literati power to check and balance and restrain. Once the Tang Dynasty enters the era of fierce border expansion, its military achievements will become more powerful, which will only make the literati weaker, and there will be more ambitious soldiers, which will be difficult to suppress. Therefore, it is imperative to cultivate literati power to compete with the military power.

It was Suning who destroyed the literati forces himself, and now he had to work hard to reorganize the literati forces. This is really contradictory, but there is no way. After thirty years of Hedong and thirty years of Hexi, the military forces have already shown signs of expanding into the literati field after consolidating their own security. Hou Junji's phenomenon is not accidental, but inevitable.

No wise soldiers will participate, and His Majesty Li Er will never agree, but he is afraid that Hou Junji will cause trouble and destroy the newly established fragile order. The power of the Tang Dynasty is not only the power of the army, but also the power of civilization and wealth. Only in this way can the conquered areas be subject to the most effective rule and assimilation.

If we want to do this, the men and women in this large courtyard are the most important part.

The courtyard was very divided, with about fifty people and a small courtyard, separated from each other and difficult to communicate, and it was difficult to organize and cause trouble. The guardian was His Majesty Li Er's personal guard Xuanjia Army, each of whom was cruel and ruthless. No matter whether you are a famous scholar or not, in their eyes, you are a traitor.

Therefore, these arrogant and arrogant figures are now being taken over by Xuanjia Army, so they are so obedient that they dare not sit while standing, lying down and not sitting, and they are eating when they are eating. They are drinking water when they are drinking water. Except for the inner courtyard, the direct people who guard the four major families, so they are a little special, all the branches in the outer circle have been surrendered.

Seeing Suning walking in with four guards in awkward manner, these people who were preparing to eat unconsciously shrank their heads. They did not know Suning, but those who appeared here in these days were Xuanjia Army wearing Xuanhe Military Uniforms. Young people in gorgeous clothes appeared. Once they appeared, it was probably related to how to deal with them. How could they not be scared?

These Xuanjia Army did not seem to be with them. The group of people who were the first to fight with them, who were noble and demanded special treatment, had been lying in the house for more than two months and had not gotten up. They either had their hands and feet broken or their heads were smashed and dizzy. The casualties of seven or eight people made these people realize that they were no longer the best people. These soldiers who pulled their swords with steel knives in their hands would never give them any face.

Suning is very satisfied. These people have been educated very well. The Xuanjia Army has a good education level. If you encounter such a thing in the future, you will send them here. Well, aren’t there seven counties? There are three other gentry families that have not been swept away. They are still living in Shandong. Sooner or later, they will be sent here to study for a while. In that case, the primary school teachers in the Jiangnan region will be enough. When their value is squeezed out, the new generation of teachers will grow up.

Suning ignored these people and, under the leadership of Xuanjia Army, quickly entered the courtyard where the head of the direct family was locked up. Four unlucky heads were locked up inside, three of whom were taken over after the disaster. Only one of the heads of the Zheng family was still alive, but they seemed to be sick at the moment, probably in their lives. The imperial physician in the palace only shook his head after seeing him. This is a heart disease, and heart disease cannot be treated.

When I came to the courtyard, I walked into a room and sat in the upper head. I asked the four guards to call the four masters over here. Be careful with the Master Zheng. Don’t be troubled by the old guy. You can do the other three. If you don’t come, just show your knife and think you are a noble person? A group of bird pools!

After a while, before Suning had finished drinking the first glass of water, the three heads of the family were held by Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and Wang Chao with a knife on their necks and walked over, trembling with each other. Their face was pale and they were trembling. The head of the Zheng family, Zheng Tong, was helped over. The old man had not recovered yet and had a sick look on his face, but he was frightened when he saw this show. The middle-aged man who accompanied him had a blue face.

Suning smiled in his heart, but his face was angry and shouted: "I asked you to invite me, not a knife. How did I teach you normally? If this matter is spread, where will I put my face? Well? You, you don't know how to study, and you don't know how to cherish the good conditions. You deserve to play a big knife for the rest of your life!"

The four guards smiled silly, nodded and said nothing. When Suning waved his hand, the four guards stood behind Suning with a strong aura, looking solemn and arrogant. The four heads of the family didn't know what to do. Suning smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "I am not strict in my power, so I will laugh at you. Haha, don't take it to my heart. This marquis will deal with them well."

The four heads of the family did not reply. The three new heads of the family were obviously in chaos. Only one Zheng Tong looked helplessly at the appearance of the three heads, sighed softly, coughed twice, and said, "Mr. Su, you are a noble man. You have not been in Chang'an City for these days to manage the plague, but you ran to this small courtyard for us to do? The small courtyard is very poor, but there is nothing to take out to entertain Su Hou. I hope Su Hou will not be angry!"

It’s still an old guy who is interested. These three new heads are really far inferior to their ex. They can’t stand the neck with a steel knife? What about that arrogance? Can you teach this kind of virtue in a few months of education? It’s really overwhelming!

"Haha, of course I won't. I have not come to drink and have fun with you recently. Why do you need to entertain me? Haha, come on, please sit down, why do you do while standing? You are the heads of wealthy families with noble identities. If this matter is spread, I am afraid that this marquis will be scolded to death by the world's long mouth, hahaha!" Suning waved his hand and asked the four heads of the family to sit down.

The new head of the Cui family in Boling, Cui Xiaoren, the new head of the Cui family in Qinghe, Cui Laosan, Cui Zhi, the new head of the Lu family in Fanyang, and Zheng Tong, the old head of the Zheng family in Xingyang, the head of the four major families gathered here. In the past, if they gathered, they would have discussed how to deal with the Li Tang government, but now, they all looked pale and trembled. They didn't know what they were worried about, whether they could live until tomorrow?
