    The next day, early morning.

    After Du Qi woke up, he broke off a white arm that was pressing on him, got up and rubbed his sore waist.  After returning home yesterday, after a family banquet, Du Qi called Li Yanyun and Qian Xue directly to sleep together at night.  After the whole night, Du Qi couldn't stand it anymore, his old waist is still a little sore now.

    Du Qi didn't care about the two sleeping daughters. After all, the two daughters had a lot of trouble last night.  He changed his clothes under the service of the maid, washed up, had breakfast, and went straight to the main hall.

    Just after Du Qi arrived, the six ministers headed by Liu Zhengxi all came to see him.

    A group of people entered the hall, saluted Du Qi and took their seats.

    Liu Zhengxi, as the head of the official department and the head of civil officials, directly talked about the general affairs in the country and the situation in the court.  In fact, Du Qi knew many things, but now, Liu Zhengxi explained everything one by one, so that Du Qi could understand the situation in the court.

    After Liu Zhengxi finished speaking, the ministers of other ministries reported the news one by one.

    Report their own situation.

    It took half a day just for such a report, and from the beginning to the end, Du Qi listened and didn't express much opinion, so it took most of the day. It was really a long time since Du Qi left, and there was a backlog in various departments  many things.

    After each department summed up, time slipped away in a hurry.

    When it was almost noon, Du Qi held a banquet directly in the palace, and let everyone eat together in the hall.  After lunch, he continued to explain the situation of the various ministries, as well as the current affairs of the government.

    Du Qi was listening all day long.

    After Shen Shi in the afternoon, Du Qicai expressed his opinion, commented on many things one by one, gave a final conclusion, and gave a conclusion.

    After roughly sorting out the various matters, Liu Zhengxi changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, although the country is large, it is better to fight than die. Now that the territory of Xia Kingdom has been pacified, everything is on the right track. Therefore, regarding the army, I think that we should  It has been restrained. The power of the army has always been too great. If it is not restrained, the consequences will be disastrous. Therefore, I think that the army should be adjusted."

    Du Qi said: "How to adjust?"

    There was curiosity in his eyes.

    Du Qi was a little curious about Liu Zhengxi's request.  As for Liu Zhengxi's plan, Du Qi didn't take it very seriously.  Although the Xia Kingdom is said to be peaceful, the current Xia Kingdom is just like this, and it should be even bigger.

    It is certainly impossible to reduce the army.

    Liu Zhengxi said: "Your Majesty, my minister's suggestion is to take all the military power of the main generals under the control of the imperial court. All the troops will also be taken back to station around the Imperial Capital City. Once something happens, Your Majesty will temporarily authorize the generals to lead troops into battle.  .¡±

    Du Qi nodded, but did not express his opinion. Instead, he looked at the rest of the people and asked, "Do you all have this attitude? You all think that the military's authority should be reduced."

    "Your Majesty, I agree."

    At this moment, Guo Xiaozheng agreed.

    Guo Xiaozheng looked solemn, and said in a deep voice: "If it was a war, then the army should not be reduced. But now, it is different. Especially the safety of the army is related to the long-term stability of the Xia Kingdom, so we must be cautious."

    The rest of Yi Fusheng, Yuan Yin and others also agreed.

    All have the same attitude.

    This is the attitude of the civil service system, and they all hope to suppress the military, at least so that the military cannot be stronger than the civilian officials.  Furthermore, in the eyes of Liu Zhengxi, Guo Xiaozheng and others, this is something that must be done.

    After everyone expressed their opinions, Du Qi said in a deep voice: "The army is crucial to Xia's stability. If there is a problem with the army, and then there is a problem in the local area, the consequences will be disastrous. What's more, Xia's security is all  Rely on the military to protect."

    "Now, it is to attack the army."

    "Even if the military power of the chief general is to be confiscated, does it mean that, in time of war, in addition to the general leading the army, it is also necessary to send civilian officials to supervise the army?"

    "Everyone, you are so worried about the army."

    Du Qi's tone gradually became stricter. He has always led the army to fight here and there, and he has a deep affection for the army.  Especially for Du Qi, whether in the army or in the court, he relied heavily on civil officials and military generals, and they were his right-hand men. Today, the civil service system wants to suppress military generals, which Du Qi dislikes.

    Throughout the Chinese dynasties, the Song Dynasty suppressed the army the most, and the generals had the least status.  Although Da Song's economy is extremely developed, Da Song was the worst beaten, and was beaten everywhere.control.

    Du Qi didn't want to see this happen.

    As Du Qi's confidant, Liu Zhengxi heard Du Qi's words and understood Du Qi's intentions, but he didn't care about Du Qi's thoughts, and said directly: "Your Majesty, once the power of the general in the army increases, it is very likely to threaten Xia.  The safety of the country!"

    Du Qidao: "Oh, what are the examples in the past dynasties?"

    Liu Zhengxi said: "For example, in the late Han Dynasty, local officials controlled the army, causing chaos in the local area. Therefore, we must be cautious when dealing with the army, and we must not let our guard down."

    Du Qi said in a deep voice: "You just said that it was local officials who controlled the army. At the end of the Han Dynasty, even though the world was in chaos, the court was full of traitors, eunuchs were in power, and the emperor had no way."

    "Actually, the reason for the chaos is that the imperial court used state shepherds to control the military and political power, which made the local area bigger. In the final analysis, this is not a problem with the army. It is the civilian officials who control the army and have ambitions."

    "So this point, your statement is completely untenable. Liu Shangshu, the generals in the army are extremely hard, especially on the battlefield, they risk their lives. It is not easy for them, so we must be considerate of them."

    Du Qidao: "Don't put everything on them."

    At this moment, Du Qi's tone was very heavy.

    Soldiers, it's not easy.

    Soldiers, even in the eyes of civilian officials, are like mud legs.  Du Qi didn't want Xia Guo to fall into such a situation, and he should protect these difficult soldiers.

    Liu Zhengxi and the others frowned, because Du Qi's attitude was very firm. Under such a premise, it was not easy for them to suppress the army.

    Du Qi said in a deep voice: "Of course, there will be some reforms regarding the army."

    Liu Zhengxi took advantage of the situation and said, "Please show me, Your Majesty."

    The rest of the people also looked at Du Qi.

    In today's Xia Kingdom, Du Qi can settle all affairs in the court with one word, because Du Qi has enough prestige and influence.  Generally speaking, the founding kings are like this, that is, at the end of the dynasty, the power of the courtiers rises, the influence of the courtiers increases, and the imperial power weakens, only then will the courtiers block the emperor.

    Du Qi said slowly: "Xia Kingdom's territory is extremely vast, far stronger than the Han and Tang Dynasties. If all the troops were collected near the imperial capital, once there was chaos in the area, the consequences would be disastrous when the army arrived.  Therefore, the most fundamental thing is to have troops stationed in various places. Only by stationing troops can we ensure the safety of various places. If we evacuate Liaodong Road, Cui Yongli has been arranged to garrison Liaodong Road to ensure the safety of Liaodong Road.¡±

    After a pause, Du Qi continued: "This time I withdrew from Chang'an and returned, and left Xiao Yuanqi in Chang'an to ensure the safety of Chang'an and even the rest of the country."

    Liu Zhengxi said: "Your Majesty, there are still certain risks in such an arrangement."

    Du Qidao: "What risk?" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
