Chapter 200: The cat eats the mouse, the mouse eats the elephant
The request for money went smoothly. After the East Factory was allocated, the personal army could not escape. After all, it was a matter of concern in the palace. The factory guards were not the court. The court could whine, and the imperial envoys used various means to find faults. However, all the rights of the factory guards came from the palace, so naturally they followed the leaders of the palace.
only……
The money is coming, but the yamen is still deserted. It’s ridiculous to say that this yamen is making money, but the problem is that it is impossible for others to deliver the money to the door obediently. If you forcefully take over, can you do it with just a few less than a hundred people in the yamen?
In the past few days, Xu Qian and his son and Xu Qian's cousins have all eaten and lived in the road government bureau, formulated one by one, and agreed on countermeasures. Fortunately, the backbone in the yamen is their own, so everyone is willing to do their best, especially Xu Fu and others, who have not had a good sleep for several days and are thinking about business even when they eat.
The only free person is afraid that the only one who is free is Eunuch Wang. Eunuch Wang has decided to be so-called and will never show up. Anyway, he will do whatever Xu Chang told him, and try not to get involved.
At first, he thought that the construction of this yamen would definitely cause a sensation. At that time, there would be envoys or even six masters of the ministry to inquire, which might even attract the attention of some powerful figures.
But soon, he realized that he was wrong. Since the yamen was built, no one has paid attention to them at all, as if this political situation has never happened before.
In fact, Eunuch Wang overestimated people like him. Think about it, those who call for the wind and rain may notice the construction of this yamen at the beginning and will be vigilant about the yamen's responsibilities. However, after careful consideration, I found that the so-called road government situation is just a group of children playing house, so there is no point in interfering and inquiries? Many people even have a thought in their hearts that this emperor is young, deep on the surface, but childish, and he is actually making trouble like this.
Since the matter was classified as a nonsense, everyone naturally had no interest in taking care of it. After all, the yamen did not make any noise. The only harm was that a few guys who had eaten the family meals were added. In recent years, both the eunuchs and the personal army had greatly reduced their positions, so it would be okay to increase the number of members.
But the palace was very concerned about this matter. Although Jiajing had been ascending the throne for two years, what he really did was a lack of good deeds. The only glorious thing was to abolish the eunuchs in various places. Now this matter is not just a matter of money for Jiajing, but more importantly, a matter of face. If this yamen is insignificant and becomes a laughing stock for others, then wouldn’t he, the emperor, have no prestige in the eyes of others?
No matter how high your position and power you are, if you can't do anything, or if you get rid of the laughing stock, then even if you are in a high position, it will be just a slanderous disobedience to you.
Jiajing has not had a good sleep these days. Sometimes he is full of confidence, sometimes he feels inappropriate. One day, he suddenly called Huang Jin to ask in the middle of the night. When he learned that there was no movement in the road political situation, he suddenly felt sad in the middle of the night.
Today's court discussion was very strange. After the court discussion ended, we then talked to several bachelors from the cabinet in the East Warehouse.
After chatting for a few words, Yang Tinghe suddenly became silent and said to Jiajing: "Your Majesty, I heard that someone is cheating outside in the name of Your Majesty. I wonder if this is the case?"
With this sentence, the atmosphere in the entire Donghun Pavilion suddenly became tense.
Jiang Mian deliberately turned his head aside, and Mao Ji also felt something was wrong and coughed softly.
It seems that this sentence is fine, but the problem is that the emperor's order has been sent out to let the Road Administration supervise something, but Yang Tinghe directly cheated? What does this mean? On the surface, Yang Tinghe was pretending that he was not familiar with the inside story of this matter. On the other hand, everyone was tacitly aware of it and knew that this was something Jiajing instructed. As a result, a cheating sentence was like pouring cold water on Jiajing.
Of course, although it is a hidden knife in the words, this sentence is still not a problem. Yang Tinghe, who has been in the officialdom for so many years, speaks naturally not comparable to ordinary people.
Jiajing's face froze, then smiled slightly, and said in a plain tone: "Hmm? I don't understand what Mr. Yang said. What happened outside the palace?" He stood up and asked the eunuch beside him, "Someone is cheating under the banner of the palace. Is this a matter?"
The eunuch hurriedly said, "I... I don't know."
A trace of murderous intent flashed through Jiajing's eyes, and then he slapped hard on the eunuch's face and shouted angrily: "I don't even know this, what's the use of me?"
This time, the action was naturally extremely heavy. He knocked the eunuch to the ground. The eunuch shook all over, but he didn't dare to shout. He just hurriedly crawled on the ground, and said like a sieve: "I have died thousands of times... I have died thousands of times..."
Jiajing narrowed his eyes and three words popped out from his teeth: "Get out!"
The little eunuch was as if he had been pardoned and quickly covered his hot face and ran away in panic.
Jiajing's anger dissipated and he looked at Yang Tinghe with a smile, saying, "These slaves are really useless now. Mr. Yang, I will find out this matter clearly."
But now it was Yang Tinghe's turn to face stiffened. He said that someone was cheating outside, which was about the road political situation. It meant that someone was making trouble outside, and it was not what His Majesty encouraged them to do, so someone must have done bad things under the banner of the emperor.
The problem with this sentence is that everyone in the capital knows that the imperial edict has been issued. It is clearly an instructed by the emperor, and Yang Tinghe cannot know it. When he said that, he secretly reminded the emperor not to make trouble.
Jiajing's methods were more direct and violent. He did not ask what the matter was, nor did he talk about the quality of the road political situation. Instead, he pretended that there was no such thing at all, and even slapped the eunuch hard on this reason. The last sentence, "I don't even know this, what's the use of me?" This sentence was to scold the little eunuch, but in fact, it was to scold the wok. Even if I issued an order, what's the use of my request?
Aren’t you pretending to be confused? Aren’t you pretending to be ignorant of the inside story? Then I will give you some colors.
Although the little eunuch who beat him was Yang Tinghe, the one who was hurt was Yang Tinghe. Yang Tinghe's face changed slightly, and then he returned to normal. He smiled faintly and said, "It is good that your Majesty can find out clearly."
Immediately afterwards, the cabinet ministers retreated, and Jiajing coughed in the empty East Warehouse. The eunuch who had been beaten before rolled in and said, "What are your instructions?"
Jiajing's face calmed down a little, he glanced at the eunuch's swollen cheek, and said, "Are you seriously injured? Let's call an imperial doctor later."
The little eunuch hurriedly said, "What's the point of this injury for me? Your Majesty..."
However, Jiajing was unwilling to listen to his flattery again and interrupted him, "You have always been following me and do your best. There is a supervisor in Shangshen Supervisor, so Ming** will go there to dig it out."
The little eunuch was overjoyed and kowtowed and thanked him, saying, "Yes, yes..."
The Jiajing Fu case seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly said: "Go and call Huang Jin."
Huang Jin has been living a very uneasy life these days. Every now and then, no matter whether it is on duty or not, whether it is day or night, the emperor's summons are too frequent. It would be fine if it is anything else. But the question has been the same thing these days. The more there is no progress there, the more anxious the Majesty is, so that the Queen Mother and Queen Mother Zhang also called him to ask, saying that the emperor was uneasy in recent days and asked him what was going on. Huang Jin had to say that it was not only the emperor, but also the two palaces often asked him to ask.
If this continues, Huang Jin will go crazy, but he is a slave, so this kind of thing is his duty and he cannot escape. When he heard Jiajing calling him, he naturally did not dare to neglect and rushed to the warm room.
"Your Majesty, I am here. I wonder what your majesty has to give?"
Jiajing looked at Huang Jin. Huang Jin was thinner than before, then he smiled coldly and said, "Get up."
Huang Jin felt the coldness on Jiajing and immediately knew that it was not very good. He couldn't help but wonder, who provoked the emperor today, why did he feel murderous intent? He thought that the court discussion was just over, so he couldn't help but think: "Is it because of the court discussion that happened to be the end of the court discussion, or what happened when His Majesty summoned the cabinet ministers?"
Just when Huang Jin was nervous, Jiajing started talking. He circled around the pavilion coldly, and then said viciously: "Is there any new news on the road government bureau? Why is there no movement at all? It has been so many days."
Huang Jinxin sighed and said, "There is no news over there for the time being. After all, it was just created. If you want to take effect, I want to... I think it shouldn't be so easy..."
Jiajing narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "I can't wait anymore, Humph! I have to think of a way, find a way to speed up. Go and find Xu Qian and tell him that I don't care about any method, half a month... I must make a little noise within half a month. If I can't make a noise, I'm asking him."
Huang Jin couldn't help but feel nervous and said, "This... this is a bit difficult."
Jiajing's eyes were slightly sunk: "What did you say?"
Huang Jin blurted out the words just now. Now that he woke up, he was so scared that he was out of his mind and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, forgive me!"
Jiajing's face became much gentler, and he sighed and said, "They forced me to see my joke. You are my people. I can only force you. Everyone has difficulties. You want me to understand you, but who understands me? You go find Xu Qian and don't delay."

Everyone has difficulties. You must understand the tiger and keep improving it. But who understands the tiger? You can support the tiger again! Can those with monthly tickets stop keeping it!"
