There was an undercurrent in the capital, and Jiang Wan naturally didn't know about it.
However, this did not prevent him from giving his secret details of his actions to Zhu Youjian.
That's right, it's a secret secret. It doesn't go through the Ministry of War or the cabinet. This is one of the few privileges Zhu Youjian gave him. The most important one. With this right to report the secret, he
You can report your current situation to Zhu Youjian at any time.
After putting down the mutiny in Pidao, he sent a secret letter to Zhu Youjian.
Before marching into Zhenjiang Fort, he once again sent Zhu Youjian a secret letter.
This is his third secret document since he took office as the general manager of Dongjiang Town.
In the secret book, he reported to Zhu Youjian the details of his battle, without concealing anything. All his tactics and strategic intentions were clearly written in the book. With Yuan Chonghuan's lessons learned,
Jiang Wan would never play any tricks in front of Zhu Youjian.
Facing a very suspicious monarch, good communication is inevitable.
Especially now that he is leading an army and is stationed far away from the capital, the king's trust is often more important than winning a battle.
Jiang Wan felt that Zhu Youjian had always trusted him, and after the Battle of Zhenjiang Fort, this trust and respect would reach a new level, and at this time, he would have to make some appropriate mistakes.
The mistake made Zhu Youjian feel that he was not out of his control.
It was a mistake to expel the food and salary transport officer of the Ministry of War. Theoretically, Jiang Wan's approach does not seem to be inconsistent with officialdom. However, if a person makes no mistakes at all and still leads the army to stay on the front line, even if the monarch trusts him again, his life will be ruined.
As time goes by, this suspicion will inevitably get worse.
When this matter spreads to the capital, how many people will be offended and how many people will lose their official titles? These are not issues Jiang Wan considers. He only knows that since he came here, he is basically in the court.
, there will be no good popularity.
Officials who do not live up to their expectations will naturally be ostracized by other officials.
In the book, he complained about the food and salary incident, how the officials who handled it embezzled the money and food of the Ming Dynasty, how they used their power, and even made things difficult for the fleets from all over the world in Tianjin.
.
He believed that Zhu Youjian would do something, and the consequences of what he did would eventually fall on him.
He didn't know who the imperial court would send to take charge of the overall situation in Liaodong after Sun Chengzong left Liaodong, so he asked Zhu Youjian to be an important official.
Dongjiang Town must not be controlled by a sudden appearance of a supervisor or manager. He, Jiang Wan, must take good control of the situation created by himself.
He also reported Zhenjiang Fort's next plans one by one, but it was only a report to let Zhu Youjian know what he was doing and what he would do in the future. Even if he had contact with North Korea, his attitude and requirements,
Everything is also written down in detail in the notebook.
After he finished writing the excerpt, he read it again and felt quite satisfied.
If this is the case, Zhu Youjian will continue to be suspicious of him, and even put a chain on his head to keep him under control.
Then, he felt that there was not much he could do to the Ming Dynasty.
The zhezi was sent back to the Ming Dynasty via fleets from all over the world. Once it arrived in Tianjin, the zhezi would be delivered to the capital by a special person and then directly into the palace and delivered to Zhu Youjian through Wang Chengen.
After that, this document will not pass through the hands of anyone else.
By the time the papers arrived in the capital, Zhu Youjian had been waiting for them for several days, and a mountain of impeachment papers was now piled up on Zhu Youjian's desk, as if all the chaos in Liaodong was now over.
It was caused by a man from Dongjiang Zhenjiangwan.
If you don't kill this person, it will be difficult to explain to the world!
"Hahaha!"
After Zhu Youjian read the excerpt, he slapped the dragon case hard: "Honey, if you come and take a look, I will know that Jiang Wan is not what these guys said. These guys are corrupt and pervert the law. I assigned them to Dongjiang Town."
They actually dared to embezzle most of the money and food. This is why my Jiang Wan dared to speak openly about this matter to me. If it were anyone else, I would just hold their noses and admit it. Can the soldiers raised in this way help me win the war?"
"Don't your Majesty know that Jiang Wan is commendable for his loyalty?" Wang Chengen said with a smile: "If this were not the case, why would your Majesty allow him to take control of Dongjiang Town!"
"Luo Yangxing has been hiding this from me!" Zhu Youjian sneered: "This time, if I don't chop off some heads, I'm afraid no one will be afraid of me. I really think I am a three-year-old child!"
"Perhaps the Jin Yiwei side is not too clear about things in the army!" Wang Chengen said: "Now His Majesty's Jin Yiwei is quite easy to use. If it were a different commander, it might not be so easy to use!"
"Humph!" Zhu Youjian snorted, but he did not refute this. Instead, he was suddenly stunned, thinking about what to do about this matter.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Wang Chengen gently reminded him twice, and Zhu Youjian responded: "In the first half of this year, Jiang Wan donated 50,000 taels of silver from the inner treasury in the name of Sihai Commercial Bank?"
"This is true!" Wang Chengen nodded: "Didn't he donate 30% of the shares of Sihai Trading Company to His Majesty? Your Majesty was very happy at that time, saying that Jiang Wan had your Majesty in his heart, and he was much better than some people.
!”
"When you said that, I remembered it!" Zhu Youjian nodded: "After he came back from Shaanxi, he said in a note that the money donated to the inner treasury in the second half of the year was because Dongjiang Town was in urgent need of food and salary, so
Temporarily removed, doesn't this mean that these officials in the court accused Jiang Wan of using his own money to feed the court's troops, but in fact, Jiang Wan used the money that should have been given to my inner treasury to use it as food and salary
of!"
"Yes, that seems to be the case!" Wang Chengen nodded: "This will be charged to the account when the time comes!"
"A bunch of bastards!" Zhu Youjian was furious: "I use my own money and food to support the soldiers, and they actually cause trouble. I use the court's money and food to support the soldiers of the court, and they want to embezzle. They are really a bunch of cowards who don't know how to live or die!"
"
"Tell Luo Yangxing to come and see me!" He patted the table: "Immediately arrest the chief officer of the Qing Army in Tianjin and the chief officer of the transportation department, and interrogate them severely. I want to know who is responsible for making them difficult for Sihai Commercial Bank.
The fleet that transports food and wages to Dongjiang Town!"
"Yes, I will go and deliver the order now!"
"And!" Zhu Youjian stopped him: "Call the bachelors on duty in the cabinet, as well as the Minister of War, the Minister of Household, and the Minister of Rites, all summoned to me. I want to have a good chat with them.
