Chapter 516 After Tang Yin became king, he carried out a series of changes to the original system of Fengguo, first adding the post of county lieutenant at the local level, so that the county's government affairs and military affairs were separated, the county head was only in charge of government affairs, not the military, and the county lieutenant was only responsible for managing the garrison, not involving government affairs, and the two positions could read each other and supervise each other.
Because the county lieutenant was in charge of the troops, most of the county lieutenants assigned to the counties were people who were loyal to Tang Yin and could make Tang Yin trustworthy.
Secondly, in the imperial court, Tang Yin abolished the post of general, and the military power of the whole country was only in his hands, and the positions of the left and right prime ministers were still retained, one was in charge of government affairs, and the other was in charge of military affairs.
Under the Imperial History Mansion, there are Imperial Historians and Imperial Historians.
The Imperial Historian is in charge of the national finances, and the Imperial Historian is responsible for supervision, but the Imperial Historian is not only supervising the Imperial Historian, but also the officials of all sizes across the country, and if an official is found to be illegal, it can be directly reported to Tang Yin.
Sikong Mansion has two positions, the Great Sikong and the Sikong Changshi, who are mainly in charge of etiquette, morality, education, and sacrifice; Under the Sikou Mansion, there are two positions, the chief of the Sikou and the chief of the Sikou, who are mainly in charge of the punishment of the whole country; Under the National History Office, there are university scholars and university edicts, which are mainly responsible for commenting on the achievements of national officials and recording domestic and foreign events.
Tang Yin abolished the general, but did not increase the power of the left minister, the left minister's authority was mainly the administrative power of the whole army, and his establishment of the four prefectures greatly weakened the right minister's power, and the power was further dispersed.
All of these changes he implemented had a common denominator in common, which was to maximize the decentralization of power, so that the court could no longer produce a powerful minister who posed a threat to him.
Tang Yin was very vigilant, and it was precisely because of this that the internal affairs of the Wind Country were very different from those of other vassal states, with complex and closely connected departments, and a large and meticulous system that made the power of the Wind Country extremely solid.
Tang Yin's changes are in full swing, and on the other hand, the cleaning up of the ministers of the DPRK and China by the dark arrow has also become more frequent.
Those ministers who are targeted by the dark arrow, whether guilty or innocent, as long as they are taken to the dark house, after some torture and confession, they will become guilty, and the dark arrow can also produce their signed confessions, making it appear that the evidence is conclusive.
With the fall of the ministers of the DPRK and China, Cheng Jin's eyes were quickly aimed at Liang Xing.
In the past two days, Liang Xing rarely went out, and the rampant dark arrows made him have to be afraid of three points, and tonight, he rarely left the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion and went to his cousin Liang Chen's mansion.
Today is Liang Chen's 70th birthday, and Liang Xing had to come to participate because of face and family affection.
At the banquet, Liang Chen kindly advised Liang Xing to let go when he should let go, and let go when he should let go.
Now that Tang Yin is the King of the Wind, he can't get a bargain against him again.
Liang Xing hated to hear these words the most now, on the surface he nodded with a smile, but in his heart he didn't think so.
When the banquet came to an end, Liang Xing was ready to go back to the house, Liang Chen personally sent him out of the house, before parting, he also took Liang Xing's hand and said: "Brother, since the first king was killed by Zhong Tian, the power of our Liang family has come to an end, my brother has been the prime minister for so many years, and the family must have a lot of savings, not to mention that you are old, what are you going to fight with Tang Yin Now Tang Yin just wants to disperse the original ministers in the court, you take the initiative to retreat, how good it is to go home and enjoy Qingfu."
Liang Chen is the eldest among the children of the Liang family in Liang Xing's generation, and Liang Xing also respects him very much, which is what Liang Chen said, if he were someone else, he would have turned his face a long time ago.
Liang Xing shook his head with a smile and said: "I won't retreat, I won't let the wealth of our Liang family fold in my hands, Tang Yin has any ability, just let him come at me." ” Alas, Liang Chen sighed secretly after hearing this, and he was even more worried about Liang Xing in his heart.
Seeing Liang Chen's frowning, Liang Xing hurriedly smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry about me anymore, I know it."
As he spoke, Liang Xing bowed to Liang Chen again, and then took his servants and guards back to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion.
On the way back, Liang Xing was also silently pondering Liang Chen's advice, others might harm him, but Liang Chen, who was close to him like a brother, would not, even Liang Chen said so, should he really retire Thinking of this, Liang Xing immediately shook his head again, if he retreated like this, wouldn't it be tantamount to admitting defeat to Tang Yin Liang Xing was unwilling.
He was sitting in the carriage, thinking up and down in his heart, at this time, the carriage suddenly stopped, and before Liang Xing could ask, the curtain of the carriage was raised, and a middle-aged man who crossed the knife whispered: "Liang Xiang, something is wrong." ” "What's wrong" Liang Xing's heart trembled, he hurriedly got out of the car, and looked around, the location where the carriage was parked was Xuanwu Street, one of the main secondary roads in Yancheng, at this time the street was quiet, not even a personal shadow, Liang Xing didn't see anything abnormal, he looked at the middle-aged man suspiciously, and asked: "Leaf dropper, what's wrong?"
This middle-aged man with a knife was not an ordinary guard, but a master of the Divine Pool hired by Liang Xing with a lot of money, he hired a total of two people, one was this Fallen Leaf Knife, and the other was named Void Knife, who was standing on the other side of the carriage at this time.
"It's too quiet."
The decider said with a slightly solemn face: "Usually Xuanwu Street is very lively, even late at night, there are many passers-by, but now there is no one, which is a bit abnormal." ” Hearing him say this, Liang Xing looked left and right again, yes, as the leaf knife said, today's Xuanwu Street is too quiet, quiet abnormal, and quiet is terrible.
Liang Xing's eyes rolled, and he said to the driver who was driving the car: "Turn around and go back home on Sanying Street." ” "It's Xiangye" The groom who drove the carriage agreed, pulling the reins while waving the horsewhip, and the carriage slowly turned its head on the street, preparing to exit Xuanwu Street the same way.
But Xiang Hui hadn't gone far when he saw a group of people standing on the road in front of him.
There were no torches, no lanterns, and the group of people were all dressed in black, standing on the road, almost blending in with the night.
"Who," shouted the Leaf Knife and the Void Knife, standing on either side of the carriage, in unison.
"We're here to find Liang Xiang."
Among the men in black, someone replied lightly, and took two steps forward at the same time.
After the carriage approached the man in black, Liang Xing in the carriage and the surrounding guards and servants took a closer look, and only then did they see the appearance and dress of the other party clearly.
These people were all wearing black crowns on their heads, black brocade clothes, delicate dark red patterns embroidered on their clothes, long knives of all colors around their waists, bright red coats on their backs, and black fast boots under their feet.
There is no second number for people dressed like this except for the Dark Arrow.
The leader of the men in black is not someone else, it is the leader of the dark arrow, Cheng Jin, and it was he who replied just now.
Of course, Liang Xing knew Cheng Jin, and when he saw him here, the old man's heart was also cold.
However, his face was unusually calm, and he said with a smile: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be General Cheng, what a coincidence, I actually met General Cheng here." ” "It's not a coincidence, it's a special wait for Liang Xiang here."
Cheng Jin put his hands behind his back, looked directly at Liang Xing in the car, and said quietly: "Several cases investigated below involve Liang Xiang, so today I specially came to invite Liang Xiang, and asked Liang Xiang to go with me." ” Sure enough, it was a dark arrow that hit him in the head.
The corners of Liang Xing's mouth were raised, he smiled coldly, and said, "I'm sorry, General Cheng, it's late today, Ben Xiang is going back to his house to rest, let's talk about something tomorrow."
"Well, I'm afraid I can't do it in the future."
Cheng Jin said expressionlessly: "Since I am here in person, even if the sky falls, I must bring Liang Xiang back." ” Liang Xing's face suddenly sank, and he scolded angrily: "Cheng Jin, you are so bold, do you know who you are talking to now?"
Cheng Jin laughed, saying that he was laughing, but in fact, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he said in another sense: "If Liang Xiang refuses to go with me, you will see that my courage can be even greater."
These words are already a naked threat, and being so unscrupulously coerced by a general who only has the level of a corps commander, where can Liang Xing stand it.

He dodged angrily, and said to the Leaf Knife and the Void Knife on both sides: "Leaf Knife, Void Knife, you two walk in front, if anyone dares to stop it, kill me."
The Leaf Knife and the Void Knife were stunned for a moment, and then they both walked out and went straight to Cheng Jin, who was in front of the carriage.
The two stood still in front of Cheng Jin, and said in a cold voice, "Your Excellency, get out of the way." ” Cheng Jin's cultivation is not profound, especially compared with the two Shenchi masters in front of him, it is not at the same level, but he does not have the slightest fear in his heart, he looks at the two of them, and sneers and says: "It is the two of you who should get out of the way" As he spoke, he slapped his palms three times in a row.
With the crisp applause, a group of black-clothed people walked out of the street behind the carriage, and at the same time, on the roofs on both sides of the street, more than a dozen black-clothed dark arrow personnel stood up, and in just an instant, the black arrows led by Cheng Jin surrounded the carriage that Liang Xing was riding.
Cheng Jin turned his hand behind his back, and said coldly to the Leaf Knife and the Void Knife: "The king has an order, up to the first-grade officials, down to the nine-rank officials, but all the lawless officials in the court, the secret arrow can be caught first and then retried, and then reported, if you dare to prevent me from handling the case with the secret arrow, it is to disobey the king's decree, and it is the enemy of my gale, and the wind army will suppress it."
His words made the two Shenchi masters tremble, and now the two of them can block Cheng Jin, but in this way, it is equivalent to being the enemy of Tang Yin, the king of the wind, and the entire wind country, and then it will really attract a large number of wind troops to encircle and suppress, how can the two of them still be able to leave the wind capital Yancheng The two of them subconsciously took a step back, their faces changing.
Looking at the two of them, Cheng Jin said proudly: "Where are you two still from, where are you going, I think, there is no need for Liang Xiang to hire you in the future."
As he spoke, he ignored the two of them anymore, waved his hand to the dark arrow personnel around him, and said, "Escort Liang Xiang back to his house." ” The return to the house he said was not to go back to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, but to go back to the dark house of the dark arrow's old nest
