Chapter 199: Corridor Pavilion

The Great Zhou Dynasty set up two capitals in the east and west, the Western Capital was Yongzhou Haojing, and Tokyo was Shendu.

The capital of God was the residence of the emperor. It was not only built on mountains, rivers and waters, but also set up heavy troops to guard it. From outside the capital of God, to the palace, and then to the emperor's bedroom, there were layers of protection.

Inside and outside the Shendu, there are two armies in the north and south, led by the guards and lieutenants. The Southern Army guards the palaces, ancestral temples, royal forest gardens, and the Northern Army are the standing army of the central government of the Empire, with great responsibilities.

Not only that, there were also two armies of Yulin and Qimen in the palace, responsible for protecting the safety of the emperor, led by Guangluxun.

Wei Wei, Lieutenant and Guangluxun were both the Nine Ministers. The counselor was the subordinate of Guangluxun, who was in charge of discussion and was one of the few officials in the Great Zhou Empire who could go to the palace to face the king for 600 stones and participate in the court meeting.

When the Great Zhou Empire was at its peak, all Zhou emperors were worried that the power of the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers would be too heavy and threaten the authority of the emperor, so they spent nearly two hundred years to differentiate and refine the powers possessed by these official positions. Even for a long time, there were no armies of the north and south around the capital, but only many lieutenants. Most of the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers also became empty positions, and even honorary titles.

Since Huan Wu took over the capital of Shendu, he has changed the old rules and unified military power, reset the north and south armies, and restored the power of the Guard, Lieutenant and Guangluxun, both of which were held by the Huan clan.

Huan Wu controlled all the troops inside and outside the Shendu, and even around the emperor's bedroom, his eyes and ears.

Among these many official positions held by the Huan clan, Guangluxun is the most important one. Guangluxun is under a huge institution that controls all aspects of the palace.

Huan Yi, who served as Guangluxun, is also Yang Xian’s boss now. He is not too old and has a big generation. He has two beards and looks elegant and elegant.

Among the Huan clan, Huan Yi was not considered a great military merit, nor was he considered a respected person, or even a hard-core Liang supporter. On the contrary, he had a very good relationship with his old ministers in the Great Zhou Dynasty and even the Xia clan relatives. He even sympathized with the emperor very much, and was not as arrogant and domineering as the rest of the Huan clan.

It is precisely because of this that Huan Wu appointed him as Guangluxun in order to reconcile the already dangerous relationship between the two parties.

Although Huan Wu is the most powerful person in the capital of God and even the world, he is still a minister. As long as he is a minister, the layer of cracks between him and the emperor will not be removed, nor can he be removed.

Twelve years ago, after Chen Shi's death, the cooperative relationship between Huan Wu and the Emperor was completely disintegrated. At that time, most people within the Huan family wanted Huan Wu to abolish the Emperor and proclaim himself emperor. In this way, the members of the Huan family became the real bloodline of the Tian family and the royal family.

At that time, only a few people, including Huan Yi, opposed it, and Huan Wu eventually adopted Huan Yi's words.

In fact, it also proved that Huan Yi's opposition to Huan Wu's strategy of becoming emperor was a correct decision.

Among the Huan clan, Huan Yi is an alien. He is not as eager for quick success or instant benefits as other clans in the Huan clan. He even said that when Zi was a wise king today, he was born at the wrong time.

Over the past twelve years, Huan Yi has maintained the relationship between the two sides on the verge of shattering to a stable state.

Huan Yi walked in front of Guangluxun's official office in the palace and took Yang Xian to a small compartment.

“These are the documents you want to deal with.”

Although the palace was large, the land was tight. The counselor was just a small official of 600 stones, and what he could allocate was such a small compartment less than one meter before and after the window was opened.

The counselor is in charge of discussion and has the right to go to court to face the emperor. But today, the son is a false statement, and the great affairs of the world are all presided over by Huan Wu, and the court meetings have become store-level skills, let alone this counselor.

Yang Xian nodded slightly and looked at the documents on the table. The records on it were all trivial matters.

Some say that the food price of Shendu is too high, some say that stray dogs on the street should be in charge, some say that fishermen fight disturbs the appearance of the imperial capital...

In short, these things were not managed by Yang Xian, the counselor. The price of grain was too high, and there were yamen soldiers to maintain public security, and it was not his turn to worry about supervising the city appearance.

This is a grocery shop. Looking at Yang Xian, Huan Yi smiled.

"The counselor is just a free job, but he has to do a lot of things, and you will get used to it."

Just as Huan Yi was about to leave, there was a sound of footsteps outside the corridor.

Huan Ying walked over with a smile, patted Huan Yi on the shoulder, and gave a wink at Yang Xian.

"Uncle Yi, I'm here to see you!"

Huan Yi frowned and his voice was a little stern.

"Nothing! This is the residence of the emperor and the forbidden area of ​​the palace. How did you come in?"

Huan Ying's face was filled with smiles. Her uncle Yi was not usually angry, but it was quite terrible when he was angry.

"I greeted Captain Li, who was guarding the gate, and he let me in. Uncle Yi, can't you trust me?"

Huan Ying acted coquettishly, and Huan Yi looked helpless.

"It's time for these people to take care of them!"

Huan Ying pulled Yang Xian up and was about to go out, but Huan Yi stopped him.

"Wang Ren still has a lot of official duties waiting for Wang Ren to solve. Where are you going to take him?"

"Aren't it just some documents? They are all broken things in the corners. What's the point of dealing with them one day late? There will be a lantern festival tonight, and I will take Wang Ren away first!"

Sometimes Huan Yi really had no choice but to do this little niece. Seeing Huan Ying taking Yang Xian through the corridor, it attracted everyone's attention and a hot discussion. Huan Yi shook his head and showed a smile on his face.

"This Wang Ren is really a big deal."

Not long after Huan Ying left, an eunuch walked through the corridor and came to Huan Yi.

As slaves from the emperor, these eunuchs once had great power. During the period when Guangluxun was a vacant position, the eunuch group headed by Zhongchangshi took control of most of the affairs in the palace.

But now, the glory of the Zhongchang Shishi has long passed, and these eunuchs have become the last guard of the emperor.

"Mr. Guangluxun, the emperor summoned him."

Huan Yi was not seen with the arrogance of the eunuchs, and he leaned over slightly and asked, "I don't know what the hell is summoned by the emperor?"

"I don't know this little one. But the emperor also summoned the two great masters, Taifu, Monk and Shuling."

"I see."

Huan Yi nodded, feeling an uncontrollable tremor in his heart. After so many years, he has carefully maintained a fragile balance between the Huan clan and the emperor.

But now it seems that this balance can no longer be maintained as Yang Chun is about to enter Beijing.
