The emperor asked the three houses to discuss the two things Li Chao requested.

The discussion of the three houses is just a process, and the key is still to depend on the emperor's wishes. In fact, the current central three houses still do not change the core of the emperor's overall ruling. However, in the past, the minister of the Central Secretariat took charge of everything, but now it is divided into three teams in charge of three aspects, each in charge of one part, and the number of prime ministers has increased significantly, but their respective powers have declined.

The imperial power has increased greatly.

The Jiedushi's yamen were severally set up and abolished, because the Jiedushi's authority was too great, which was not in line with the design of the local power structure of the imperial court since Zhenguan. For local governments, since the new Zhenguan policy, a Taoist level was added to the state, with the three departments of the General Secretary, the Censorate, and the Military and Horse Department. There was also a Xuanfu envoy above the three departments.

But at the same time, from the state to the Dao level, civil officials were in charge of the government. There were military officials under the prefectures and military commanders under the Daoxuan Punishment envoys. However, they were not really able to command troops. At most, they were in charge of mobilization, logistics, reserves, militia, etc. The real commanders were the Privy Council and the Governor's Office of the Five Army, as well as the North and South Yas and the Ministry of War, as well as the Weifu Office in various places.

Even these yamen have checks and balances. The Privy Council and the Governor's Office of the Five Army only have the power to mobilize troops, while the North and South yamen and the various yamen have the power to command military command. The military officers are appointed and removed, the government soldiers are selected, and the logistics equipment are also under the Ministry of War.

However, the Jiedushi Yamen controls one or even several things, and is in charge of both civil and military affairs. Such power is better for the sake of responsibility during wars. However, if the matter is stable, such a yamen cannot be kept.

The emperor would never be at ease. Such a military governor who had too much authority would continue to retain it, and it would be very likely that the local separatist would not be lost.

Today, Li Chao took the initiative to abolish the revocation of the Jiedushiya, and Li Shimin was of course happy.

It is only a process to hand it over to the Third House to discuss the matter.

Almost unanimously passed, and the prime ministers all agreed that there was no need to retain the yamen of the governors, the defense envoys of the capital, and the governors of the towns were all exempted.

In addition, the army of the King of Rescue was disbanded, so the generals of the former army of Rescue were also exempted from the position of Rescue.

The emperor also adjusted the important positions of the military headquarters.

Li Jing was appointed Minister of War, Qu Tutong continued to serve as Privy Councilor, while Qin Qiong and Li Ji served as Deputy Privy Councilor. Liu Hongji served as Grand Governor of the Left Army, stationed in Youzhou, Yuchi Gong's Grand Governor of the Front Army, stationed in Taiyuan, Yin Kaishan served as Grand Governor of the Left Army, stationed in Chang'an. Duan Zhixuan was appointed as Grand Governor of the Later Army, stationed in Xiangyang, Cheng Yaojin was appointed as Grand Governor of the Central Army, stationed in Luoyang.

The three Privy Councilors, one Minister of War and five Grand Governors, all of which were given the title of Pingzhang Military Affairs.

The Zhenbei Protectorate was promoted to the Zhenbei Grand Priest General, and Su Dingfang was appointed as the Zhenbei Grand Priest General, and stationed in Fengzhou.

Niu Jinda served as the Protector of Anxi and stationed in Gaochang.

Li Junxian was appointed as the Protector of Dingxi and stationed in Taozhou.

Cheng Chu was silently appointed as the governor of Zhennan and stationed in Erhai Lake.

Cui Yan was appointed as the Protector of Annan and stationed in Jiaozhou.

The army of the king was disbanded, the conscripted soldiers returned to their hometowns, the imperial guards returned to their camps, and the civilians returned home.

The generals also returned to Beijing to hand over their posts and dismissed them.

The local government removed the Jiedushi's Office and the Governor's Office. All roads were still led by the Xuanfu Envoy, and the soldiers of each government and the imperial guards were continued to be led by the North and South yamen.

Everything is back on track.

"If you have any merits, you will be rewarded, and if you have any mistakes, you will be punished!" Li Shimin told his prime ministers at the imperial study meeting, "The rebellion has been quelled, and the achievements of the soldiers who are serving the king need to be evaluated as soon as possible so that the soldiers can be rewarded as soon as possible. Those who are plotting against the chaos and ruling must also be punished early."

Li Shimin recalled his military career over the years and talked about the new Zhenguan policy he had implemented, and was very sighed.

Especially the Xuanwu Gate Incident and the Hanjing Rebellion this time were two major wars.

Li Shimin was also very grateful to the civil servants and military generals who stood by him unswervingly in these two times.

"In order to commend these loyal ministers, I have decided to order the painter to paint the images of the heroes and store them in the Lingyan Pavilion to commemorate them."

Lingyan Pavilion was originally an inconspicuous small pavilion in Chang'an Palace, and it was found in the Chang'an Palace in Han Dynasty. Later, Yang Jian built Daxing City in the Sui Dynasty, and Lingyan Pavilion was also built in the Daxing Palace. Li Chaoxiu's Hanjing Palace also had such a Lingyan Pavilion.

The painting of statues of heroes in Lingyan Pavilion is not considered Li Shimin's innovation.

In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there was already a poem about the emperor painting Lingyan Pavilion, saying that he would return to his ministers. In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the imperial court painted the Lingyan Pavilion for his heroes, and even went further. During the Han Dynasty, there were already twenty-eight generals of Yuntai.

Behind the Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin also commented on the heroes of the Xuanwu Gate. This time he planned to evaluate the achievements of the heroes again and portray the Lingyan Pavilion for the most meritorious ones.

Naturally, this list of meritorious officials cannot be evaluated by ministers, and it must be only selected by the emperor.

Whoever can enter this list and who can be ranked in Lingyan Pavilion will undoubtedly be a huge honor.

Li Shimin stroked his beard and pointed at the ministers in the hall.

"Li Chao is good at avoiding suspicion, responding to things quickly and making decisions. The ancients were just, and they were especially good at decisive battles, and they were the generals and ministers."

"Fang plots Du Duan, the two prime ministers are my right-hand man."

"Ma Zhou is quick to see things, and has a very honest and righteous nature. When it comes to measuring people, I am more capable than being able to satisfy my companions, just like a bird that depends on others, and people pity themselves."

"Cen Wen is honest in nature and has a rich article; but he always keeps his arguments and keeps his far-reaching knowledge, so he should live up to things."

"Changsun Wuji is good at planning and making decisions, but he is not his leader in commanding troops to fight."

"The generals of this dynasty include Li Chao, Li Jing and Li Ji, and the most wise and brave generals Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin, Luo Shixin, Shan Xiongxin, Niu Jinda, Xue Wanche, Li Daozong, Su Dingfang and others."

·······

Li Shimin announced the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion he commented on.

Lingyan Pavilion has three levels, so Li Shimin divided his meritorious officials into three levels. The innermost layer painted was all ministers with great meritorious ministers, and the middle layer painted was all ministers with great meritorious princes, and the outermost layer painted was other meritorious officials.

Each layer painted portraits of twelve meritorious officials, all of which stand facing north to show the etiquette of the king and his subjects.

Li Chao discovered that the ministers in the hall were all very excited.

Painting Lingyan Pavilion is almost the same as enjoying the treatment of Taimiao.

The Taimiao originally only worshipped the emperor and his ancestors. Later, with the emperor's approval, some great ministers could also be worshipped in the Taimiao, but there were very few such ministers, and each emperor was generally worthy of a few ministers.

"Taifu, King Li Chao of Yue!"

The emperor recited the first hero's name, which was also the leader of the twelve heroes in the innermost twelve heroes.

As everyone expected, this first hero is indeed Li Chao. The Emperor of Xuanwu Sect made six first heroes, and Li Chao was the first. Now, Li Chao has once again become the first hero of Lingyan Pavilion.

"Situ Changsun Wuji."

The second place is the emperor's brother-in-law Changsun Wuji, which seems to be expected.

"Sikong Fang Xuanling, Prince Taishi Du Ruhui."

"Qu Tutong, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, Liu Hongji, Gao Shilian."

The emperor announced eleven of the twelve heroes on the first level in one breath.

Everyone is quite convinced of the list of eleven people that has been announced. Everyone here is not simple. But everyone is curious about who will be the twelfth person.

"Minister of War, Duke of Wei, and Li Jing, the young prince protector!"

The twelfth person read it out, and it was somewhat unexpected, but he was the new Minister of War Li Jing, who was also the prime minister of Pingzhang's military affairs. He did not perform well in the Hanjing Rebellion this time, but his past contributions were still huge. If he were in the army of the kings this time, he would be in the top five.
