"Emperor, if the troops were dispatched to support the king, what would those army of support the king think? Will they have any idea of ​​wielding the emperor to command the princes?" Yu Wenshi said.

The scene suddenly became silent because this was a very dangerous thing. After all, what if the army wielded the emperor to command the princes, what should they do if the senior officials of the court? Then they might be dealt with by then. Will the officials of the capital lose their power? This is a matter of vital interests and they cannot ignore it.

But when Chen Fei saw this situation, he immediately said: "Crown Prince, I actually think this matter is not that complicated! Maybe, it should be because everyone is thinking too much."

"Oh? What did you say? Things are not that complicated? Are we thinking too much?" Li Shimin asked.

Chen Fei immediately continued, "Crown Prince, if we issue an edict to serve the king, then the army will send no more than 10,000 troops. After they come to Chang'an, they will not be subordinate to each other, and no one of them will be able to suppress others. So in this case, we are the high-ranking officials of the central government, that is, those who maintain the balance, as long as we do not die, they will not be able to hold the emperor to command the princes in this case. Moreover, we have tens of thousands of troops, and each of their generals will only lead the 10,000 troops to serve the king, unless they all collude. But is this possible? I think there are still many loyal ministers in our Tang Dynasty, so it is not so unlucky that they all collude to hold the emperor to command the princes, right?"

"What's more, we have great righteousness. The Turkic attack is a great righteousness. Will they give up fighting against the Turkic people and carry out treason? If they allow the Turkic people to ravage our Tang Dynasty, they will lose the people's hearts and will not gain support even if they rebel. So, overall, as long as our central court does not commit suicide, the princes in that place will never have the chance to rebel!"

Then everyone remembered that they had tens of thousands of troops directly under their jurisdiction, and the princes of those places sent no more than 10,000 soldiers to the Qin king. Could it be that they would collude and rebel together? This is obviously impossible. The Tang Dynasty's center could also take the opportunity to balance, and they had no possibility of treason at all. So as long as the center itself did not seek death, they could maintain the balance of all the armies, and then nothing they could do would be impossible. Moreover, the Turks were rampant, and they would not give up the righteousness of fighting against the Turks and took the opportunity to rebel. If they dared to do this, they would definitely not win the hearts of the people. Although there was no nationalism in ancient times, there was still the idea that the people who were not my race would have different hearts. If the Turks wanted to attack, all the Han people would be forced to unite temporarily and then fight against the Turks first. So with this righteousness, the princes would not dare to do anything.

After hearing this, everyone agreed with this statement. Because they subconsciously thought that serving the king was not a good thing just now, and now that they have dispelled their doubts, it can be regarded as solving this problem. Anyway, there is no need to worry about them rebelling when they are transferred to serve the king. Those who can rebel in the name of serving the king are all empty in the center, and this is only possible without foreign enemies. Now there are foreign enemies of the Turks, and the center will not be empty, and those who want to rebel with the opportunity of serving the king are impossible to do it.

"The prince, there is actually another way. We can order all localities to draw elite troops in the name of the emperor's military parade and then bring them to Chang'an for review. After the Turks came, we can take the opportunity to reorganize them and put them on the battlefield. At that time, after the Turks were repelled, we can take the opportunity to take these soldiers back to the center, and the generals can also take the opportunity to stay in Chang'an as Beijing officials and enjoy wealth and prosperity." Chen Fei said.

"It's so cruel!" everyone thought to themselves.

Chen Fei's idea was actually to take advantage of this Turkic invasion and then let the troops from all over the country come to serve the king. After defeating the Turkic people, the troops from all over the country will be unified and reorganized into the central army, so that the strength of the local princes will be weakened. Then the generals who come to serve the king will be left in Chang'an. At that time, they will be forced to serve in Chang'an and act as capital officials without military power. As for the marching general managers and various governors' offices in those places, they will be taken advantage of the opportunity to abolish and re-organized as local civil servants. In this way, the Tang Dynasty's court will be safe, and it can be said that it will be the essence of using the pressure of foreign enemies to reduce the vassal states.

This is actually turning bad things into good things, turning the Turkic invasion into an act of taking the opportunity to collect power in the central government. The local princes could not say anything, they could only pinch their noses and recognize them. This has to be said to be ruthless enough, and most people would never think of it.

"Chen Zongjun, you are not simple! We didn't expect that you would think of it just because you took ten steps?" Fang Xuanling suddenly sighed.

Chen Fei immediately said: "Mr. Fang is a joke. Where can I compare to you? Mr. Fang! Mr. Fang, you are one of the most important counselors around the prince. I still want to learn from Mr. Fang!"

"Needless to say, this time, all of us wise people will make mistakes. I didn't expect you to supplement it!" Fang Xuanling sighed and said.

Chen Fei immediately said modestly: "I am also a fool who is worried or has a lot of things!"

"Hahahaha..." Chen Fei and Fang Xuanling both laughed out loud.

"Okay, the matter is just like that, and you don't have to flatter each other. This time Chen Fei's joining the army can think of it in time and put forward the ideas, which is the first contribution. So, hurry up and mobilize the troops and let the princes lead their troops to attend the school review. We deliberately do not talk about the matter of mobilizing troops to help the king. After they come, they will not be able to help them. At that time, they will be incorporated into the Central Army in the name of fighting against the Turks. After the Turks left, we will take the opportunity to leave those princes to serve as officials in Chang'an, or reassign their positions to completely eliminate future troubles! Remember, today's matter is top secret, and no one can disclose it. If anyone reveals it, the Lone King will definitely punish him severely!" Li Shimin said.

"I accept the order!" everyone said.
