Those Dongchang assassins mistook themselves for Qian Wubing!
Zhu Houzhao figured this out with little effort. When Zhang Yong asked about this, Zhu Houzhao walked out with a dark face.
It is understandable for Zhu Houzhao that the people of Dongchang have suffered such a loss at the hands of Jin Yiwei and mustered people to try to regain their face, and as long as things are not out of control, he is also happy to see this. However, this is not right.
It would be a bit disdainful for Zhu Houzhao to go to the door in a serious manner, but to use these dirty methods in a sneaky way.
Yes, Zhu Houzhao, who had always regarded himself as a warrior, was very disgusted with such methods. Everyone was fighting with swords and guns, and that was what a man did. To be so sneaky was to disgrace the world's warriors.
He also knew that even if these people mistakenly thought that he was Qian Wubing, they would not necessarily kill him. They would probably teach him a lesson or kidnap him. However, no matter which method,
They have already violated his bottom line: if you make mistakes, that's your business, but if you offend me, that's my business!
He seldom interfered with the affairs of Dongchang, which had always been taken care of by Liu Jin. He even had no impression of the newly appointed admiral. On the contrary, these days, because he often went to Li Feng'er, he had more contact with Jin Yiwei.
Comparing the two, the advantages and disadvantages can be clearly distinguished.
A bunch of trash! Those few words were turning over in his mind. For a moment, he really wanted to give an order immediately to disband the Dongchang. Think about the responsibility of the Dongchang, to detect illegal activities! The scope of this investigation includes more than just
All civil and military officials, including Jinyiwei, felt extremely awkward in his heart. Can he count on these losers?
However, Dongchang was established by Emperor Taizong Wen to supervise all officials. This sudden cancellation is obviously unrealistic. Not only does it violate the ancestral system, it is a sword of the royal family, although it is no longer sharp enough.
, but without this knife, one can imagine the many inconveniences.
The East Factory cannot be evacuated, but it must be cleaned up, at least the waste must be cleaned out! Zhu Houzhao thought secretly, but this matter cannot be left to outsiders. This is a royal matter, and the officials will laugh at it.
, where is the royal majesty placed?
Zhang Yong and Mou Bin came back soon. The three assassins did not know Zhang Yong or Zhu Houzhao, but they had met Mou Bin from a distance. When Mou Bin revealed his identity, the three of them knew that this time
Things can no longer be solved. In order not to hurt my family, I just say whatever I have to say.
However, no new tricks were revealed. Before that, valuable information had been tortured out. They were fanatics, not martyrs. However, at this time, there was no one who cared about them, including what they thought.
The little boy of the Qingqing family who commits such a serious crime and has his whole family executed will not be able to escape. It is nothing more than a pleasure and an unpleasantness.
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Li, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, is kneeling outside!" An internal official reported softly. Zhu Houzhao shook his head and bit his lip slightly: "Let him continue to kneel! You two come here!"
Mou Bin and Zhang Yong walked over. Zhu Houzhao looked at the two of them and exhaled: "What kind of reputation does Dongchang have now? Tell me, Zhang Yong. Mou Bin, listen on the side.
I know about the disharmony between Wei and Zhang Yong. If there is anything that Zhang Yong cannot say, please fill it in for me! Don’t hide it!"
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Yong did not expect that Zhu Houzhao would ask such a question in front of Mou Bin, but Liu Jin was kneeling outside at the moment. He could guarantee that if Liu Jin wanted to know what he said here, he would definitely know it.
If he didn't want to completely break up with Liu Jin and have an endless fight, he would have to think carefully about what he said at this time.
"There is a saying among the people that 'the capital is on the run, swindling wealth and taking revenge, and treating officials as holes.' Dongchang's reputation is a bit hard to describe. However, the young people among the people are afraid of Dongchang like a tiger, so they can do it.
Shock some people!”
Zhang Yong avoided the serious matter and used a rumor in the market to offend Zhu Houzhao. If Zhu Houzhao could listen to this, he would probably have figured it out. Even if the powerful people among the people came to the capital, they would have to keep a low profile to Dongchang. With such a reputation,
It's okay to say it's good, it's okay to say it's bad, it just depends on how he understands it.
"You mean arrogant and arrogant?" Zhu Houzhao understood this and turned around: "Mo Bin, what do you Jin Yiwei think of Dongchang!"
"Jinyiwei and Dongchang are His Majesty's wings. Naturally, His Majesty's prestige will not be lost outside. However, the same rice can support all kinds of people, so there will be mixed hands, good and bad!" Mou Bin's words sounded like he was speaking.
Defending Dongchang actually confirms what Zhang Yong said, that is, the people of Dongchang are really arrogant and arrogant outside.
Zhu Houzhao was silent for a while, and the two ministers lowered their heads quietly without making a sound.
Without Dongchang, Liu Jin still had the Supervisor of Ceremonies and the Minions of the Manchu Dynasty! Zhang Yong knew that even if the emperor pursued this matter today, he was afraid that Liu Jin would not be held accountable in the end. However, if he could take this opportunity,
Ask Liu Jin to restrain himself, and he would be happy to do so.
"What happened to the Ping'an money that Jinyiwei collected on the street?" After a while, Zhu Houzhao suddenly said this, and Mou Bin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"This is the security money collected from merchants on a routine basis. The money and food provided by the imperial court has always been allocated according to the staffing of Jinyiwei during the Taizu period. After several dynasties, although the number of school captains currently enrolled is much less than during the Xuande period, there are still 40,000
The remaining people exceed the number of people allocated by money and food. Your Majesty, this is the Jin Yiwei raising their own salaries!"
Zhu Houzhao nodded silently. After walking around in the army, he knew a little bit about the salary of the soldiers. Except for the Imperial Guards, the imperial court almost never paid the soldiers in full, and even if it was a treatment
The best guards from the capital often only get 60% to 70% after being floated or deducted, and even less from the border towns. However, if the soldiers are not paid, they will cause trouble and mutiny. Therefore, for the soldiers to earn their own wages.
, the court's attitude has always been very subtle.
Since Mou Bin said it was a rule, then this rule must not have started recently. If we really have to care about it, we might be able to care about it until Emperor Taizu Gao. He shook his head slightly and stopped pursuing this topic.
.
"What about Dongchang?" But he remembered that the conflict between Qian Wubing and Dongchang today seemed to be about the money. He had to ask clearly: "You Jinyiwei cashiers have reasons, but Dongchang's expenses are all
If Nei Ku leaves, why are they joining in the fun!"
Zhang Yong and Mou Bin were both silent. Zhu Houzhao's face turned red visibly. The courtier's silence made him understand that there was no reason to collect money. What other reason could there be other than to collect money?
"Check, check hard!" The veins on his forehead were twitching, and he was so angry that he swept the incense burner off the table with a bang: "Eat my food, drink my food,
In addition to making money, I just want to play tricks on me. What use do I have for such a slave?"
"Zhang Yong, you will take the lead on this matter. You will mobilize manpower from the government army's vanguard and the Royal Horse Guards. Mou Bin and you, the Imperial Guards, will help you. I will take down whoever commits the crime. Don't be lenient. Keep an eye on each other."
, A good person cannot be wronged, and a bad person cannot be spared. Use the fastest time to return me a clean Dongchang!"
"According to the order!" The two of them were overjoyed, Dongchang, this is the end.
"Okay, you go!" Zhu Houzhao rubbed his temples and waved his hands, feeling tired.
...．
After Liu Jin knelt outside the door for more than an hour, he finally saw Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao still had feelings for Liu Jin. Although he was annoyed by this matter today, he did not put all his anger on Liu Jin. Yes, the governor of Dongchang was recommended by Liu Jin, but the Chief of Ceremonies was so
There are so many things going on, it is impossible for Liu Jin to keep an eye on Dongchang all day long.
Especially since he knew very well that this matter was brought about by the daring little official of Dongchang. It was imperative to rectify Dongchang. However, Liu Jin really punished the most trustworthy person around him for this.
Somewhat unfairly.
In Zhu Houzhao's view, asking Liu Jin to kneel in the yard for an hour was a clear indication that he was unhappy. No matter how much punishment he received, there would be no more punishment. If the old man was really broken by his knees, who would look after him?
Go to those memorials that you can’t finish reading.
"Admiral Dai Yi of the East Factory, the old slave has been captured. Whether this matter has anything to do with him or whether there is anyone who instigated it, your Majesty will know tomorrow!" As soon as Liu Jin came in, he knelt down in front of Zhu Houzhao with a pop.
In front of me: "This old slave is guilty of death. I have made such a big omission. Please be punished by Your Majesty!"
"Get up!" Although Zhu Houzhao still had an unhappy expression on his face, it seemed to be much gentler than it was an hour ago: "If you don't do your business, the people below will mess around and catch some and kill them."
A few, and that’s the rule!”
"But don't say that His Majesty was wiped off a hair by these damn rebels. Even if His Majesty is frightened, I feel that I deserve death. Your Majesty is so lenient. I can't wait to be broken into pieces and have to take revenge."
Your Majesty's kindness!" Liu Jin had tears streaming down her face. She looked very pitiful.
"Okay, okay!" Zhu Houzhao helped him up and held on to his sweat towel, "I used to say that I was like a child. Look at what you are like now. I used to be like a child, so I don't blame you.
Okay, just be more vigilant from now on, don’t let the people below set the trap and let you take the blame!"
"But this old slave is feeling uneasy!" Liu Jin was still sobbing.
"By the way, I just thought of an idea. Look, these bastards in Dongchang have made Dongchang such a mess, and they want them to watch Jinyiwei. They don't even know if they can watch them. I remember
During the Chenghua period, in addition to Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the imperial court also opened a West Factory!"
"Xichang!" Liu Jin was horrified, "Your Majesty wants to reopen Xichang?"
"Not bad!" Zhu Houzhao nodded firmly, "I have already thought about the candidates. You have so many things to do, so I won't let you be distracted by this matter. Xichang, let Zhang Yong watch it for me.
This West Factory can not only help me keep an eye on the civil and military officials, but also the Jin Yiwei and the East Factory. Zhang Yong is also an old man in the East Palace. Just like you, I can rest assured that he will do things!"
