Duofu: ...
What exactly happened between the emperor and the empress?
Why are you all so angry?
"Cold salad?"
Is this even reasonable?!
Those are the Imperial Guards!
It was a vicious dog kept by the late emperor, but now that the sage has ascended the throne, the reins of this vicious dog are no longer in the sage's hands.
What a critical situation this is!
In the end, whether it was a saint or an empress, they all gave only two light words—"Let it be!"
Duofu was speechless and choked with emotion.
Helian Jue was holding one of his children in each arm when he looked up and saw Duofu's dumbfounded expression, and couldn't help but find it a little funny.
Xie Yuan also saw it and smiled, saying, "Good fortune, I'm not joking."
"The best way is to ignore it!"
The reason why the Imperial Guards were able to become a force that made all officials tremble with fear was because they had special privileges granted by the late emperor (that is, imperial power).
The internal guards themselves are not scary; they are just bullying others by abusing their power.
Now that the old master is dead, a new master has taken over the household.
Instead of rushing to curry favor with their new master, those vicious dogs were all arrogant and presumptuous, even turning on their new master.
ha!
How ridiculous!
As the new emperor, Helian Jue doesn't need to do anything; he can simply raise a new dog.
As for that group of old dogs called "Inner Guards," having lost the emperor's power to rely on, they will not only become stray dogs, but they will probably even be used to make dog meat hot pot!
"The emperor has the Embroidered Uniform Guard on both sides!"
When Xie Yuan said this, he glanced at Helian Jue.
Helian Jue noticed this, looked up and smiled gently at her.
Helian Jue didn't say anything, but his smile said it all: My A Yuan is right!
Duofu: ...
yes!
How could I have forgotten about that?
Their master had already established the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
As for Duofu, as the current commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he had already come to the capital to make arrangements.
However, at the beginning, because it was not "legitimate" enough, Duofu simply followed Xie Yuan's approach and first made use of beggars, orphans, and idle people in the capital.
They cannot yet penetrate as thoroughly as the internal guards.
But now, the "official status" has arrived!
The Inner Guards brought this upon themselves by refusing to acknowledge their new master, creating a vacancy that the Embroidered Uniform Guard could now officially "take over"!
From then on, the secret service exclusively for the emperor was the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
As for the internal guards, they became unregistered residents.
Leaving aside their official positions and salaries, their very legitimacy has been questioned.
The world is bustling with people, all for profit!
Without money and power, even if the nine commanders of the Imperial Guard wanted to cause trouble, the Imperial Guard spies below them wouldn't follow suit.
This is no longer a simple act of "generating electricity for love," but rather a potential illegal armed force, a traitorous and rebellious group.
From now on, they won't be able to swagger around in the capital or even in the provinces; they'll likely become targets of government crackdowns.
And those officials and nobles who hate the Imperial Guard, if they knew that the Imperial Guard had lost the protection of the emperor, they would retaliate in this way, it's easy to guess even with a child's toe!
The one who should be most anxious about this matter is the Inner Guard, not Helian Jue!
Duofu was probably caught up in the situation, and his thinking was limited, which is why he couldn't figure it out.
Helian Jue had the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and Xie Yuan had the Embroidered Uniform Envoy.
They are all in positions of power and have their own personal henchmen, so they don't care about internal guards at all!
"I understand! Haha, the Sage is wise, the Empress is wise!"
Duofu became happier the more he thought about it.
He burst into laughter.
Duofu held the Emperor and Empress in the highest esteem.
"Alright! Stop flattering me!"
When Helian Jue saw that Duofu finally understood the meaning of "cold mix," he laughed and scolded him.
Then he instructed, "Duofu, quickly organize your men and standardize the ranks, personnel, and official positions of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"
"Tomorrow at the grand court assembly, I will announce the formation of the Embroidered Uniform Guard in the court and post a notice throughout the land!"
Although Helian Jue didn't care about the inner guards, his plan this time was mainly aimed at the nine commanders.
Helian Jue was still willing to "recruit" the internal guards and spies under his command.
They are highly trained and have their own secret identities.
They did not deliberately differentiate between the late emperor and the new emperor.
They were loyal to the imperial power.
Now that Helian Jue has taken that position, the ordinary guards will be loyal to him.
This is a guard that can be recruited and used by us.
Actually, not all of the nine leaders had problems.
Helian Jue can treat the aristocratic families the same way he treats them: target the weak and let the strong go, pull some together and then attack others!
Like boiling a frog in lukewarm water, he can slowly, gradually bring both the imperial court and the inner guard under his control!
"Yes, sir!"
Duofu agreed and bowed as he withdrew.
He needs to regulate the Embroidered Uniform Guard as soon as possible.
So that the emperor doesn't need him to step in and then be unable to handle things!
"Smack!"
When Helian Jue was with Duofu, he was still a wise and dignified monarch.
But as soon as he lowered his head, his own daughter slapped him.
"Ah An, that kid still has such a big temper!"
This is the second of the quadruplets, and the eldest daughter of Helian Jue and Xie Yuan.
He was exceptionally "lively" when he was born.
She cries loudly and has a bad temper.
If you feed her even a little bit late, she'll start howling at the top of her lungs.
When she cries, the other three little ones will cry too.
