After Zhu Gaochi entered the palace, news soon spread that Zhu Di decided to set up the Dongji Bureau, referred to as Dongchang, whose responsibility was to secretly investigate and plot against evil spirits and commit great crimes...
The goal is very clear.
Historically, Dongchang was only officially established in the 18th year of Yongle reign. At that time, Ji Gang had rebelled and was executed. Zhu Di felt that the imperial guards outside the palace were not reliable anymore.
So I chose the eunuchs around me to command the East Factory and monitor the world.
But this time it was because of the legendary Nishan Hongru Society, which was so powerful that it spread all over the world. Almost all scholars were controlled from left to right.
You must choose someone who has nothing to do with them in order to feel at ease.
As expected, the eunuch chosen by Zhu Di to oversee Dongchang was named Yi Shiha, and he was a Jurchen.
He was a prisoner in his early years. Because he was young, he was sent to the palace as a eunuch. Later, he was assigned to the Yan Palace together with Zheng He.
Yi Shiha followed Zhu Di in the battles, riding in front and behind the horse. He also made many military exploits in the battle of Jingnan.
He still has some sense left in his mind at this time, so he won't hurt his uncle, right?
These people didn't know that when they were dispatched, Jin Yiwei had already received the news and sent it to Dongchang.
However, Xu Jingchang did not show off at all. On the contrary, he was very polite.
broken!
With the joint efforts of the factory guards, a group of people were quickly identified.
Everyone listened patiently. Although they were not convinced, they also felt that it made sense.
The defense was broken, the defense was completely broken.
In a word, the history of the Nishan Hongru Society is incomplete.
In addition to Xu Jingchang's type, Zheng Xiu's type belongs to the second level and has considerable advantages.
At this time, there were still people who still had sense and advised: "Don't be impulsive. We haven't found out who did this yet, so we can't be reckless!"
Good knowledge, good looks!
It doesn't matter, people who are familiar with Zheng Xiu also know that he has a deep foundation.
"Who told us that we have no rights? Just bear with it! It will be fine when we pass the Jinshi examination and become officials."
What's the meaning?
Who are you looking down on?
"We do what we say. Once we say something, it's hard to follow up. If someone doesn't believe it, you can establish written evidence!"
When Xu Jingchang heard this, he was very generous. He directly allocated a thousand households from Jinyi and handed it over to Dongchang... Then Xu Jingchang gave Yi Shiha an idea.
Zheng Xiu frowned, but still said: "King Zhongshan is indeed a famous general who founded the country, and his character and merits are impeccable. It is natural to build a temple statue for him."
Yishiha hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you so much, Duke Dingguo, for your understanding. I am a rootless person, and my life is in the hands of the emperor. In order to protect the emperor, I would rather risk my life. Please, Duke Dingguo."
Don’t worry, I will be loyal and loyal and will not dare to have any selfish thoughts.”
Upon hearing this, several scholars became dark-faced.
They were scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam. The second year of Yongle was the year of the Great Competition, and Zhu Di announced that Enke would be held again. It is very likely that there will be two exams within one year.
But he was wearing a Mongolian robe, and what was even more unethical was that his hair style was also Mongolian, with the top of his head shaved, a small piece left in front, and the sides braided.
In the ancestral hall of the Zheng family, there is a plaque "The First Family in Jiangnan" given by Emperor Taizu.
However, as the Nishan Hongru Society was widely circulated and Nan Kong came to Beijing, these scholars could no longer study quietly.
The second sentence: Weixuda is like a scholar!
The one who jumped the highest sneered: "Who else could have done it? It must be those who brag for Xu Da. They destroyed Kong Sheng, so we smashed Xu Da's statue! Everyone touched their crotch and eggs.
Just follow me!"
This man was a eunuch and was naturally hostile to scholars.
With these things in mind, everyone said that Zheng Xiu is the favorite this year, not only the number one pick, but also the most popular one.
"Your Majesty established Dongchang with far-reaching intentions and also expressed his trust in those around you. To protect the emperor and investigate lawlessness, the burden on your shoulders is very heavy!"
Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "No one will doubt my father-in-law's loyalty. We are all working for His Majesty. If you need anything, just say it and I will do my best to help you."
And there are two sentences written below: Micro-Guan Zhong, hair is loose and left-over!
Won Zhu Di's trust.
He was also a Haixi Jurchen, so he had nothing to do with the Nishan Hongru Society.
There are people here who live in embarrassment and have difficult travel expenses, so they secretly write manuscripts to make money... The story of the Nishan Hongru Society was completed by this group of people with great efforts and care.
They have included two thousand years of history into the system of the Nishan Hongru Society.
This is a portrait of Confucius, with kind features and kind eyes, just like the one in the Confucian Temple.
The atmosphere got louder, and the crowd clamored and rushed out. Zheng Xiu, who had just arrived, was mixed with these people and rushed straight to the Changxing Marquis Mansion.
check!
Dongchang and the original Jinyiwei also took action.
The Zheng family's standards have been widely praised because they are very consistent with the requirements of Confucian education. Many families have kept a copy and taught their children according to it. They also want to be like the Zheng family, and their descendants will continue to win laurels and be named on the gold list.
No matter what you do, the first step is to ask for money and people, and Dongchang is no exception.
They were all young, had just passed the imperial examination, and were in high spirits. When they heard such words, they were all filled with anger.
If even he can be bribed, the Hongru Society should not hide in the ground, just jump out, rush into Yingtian, and seize the bird position.
Counting him, there are a total of twenty scholars who have written their names.
This group of people is so abominable, they actually dare to harm Confucius, there is no way to do it!
"Everyone knows the master of Heaven and Earth, right?"
It doesn't matter, Zheng Xiu is very delicate.
Now he has people and money. If he doesn't do something big, he will be sorry for His Majesty's great kindness and the cultivation of Duke Dingguo!
These beasts are so bold. If they dare to assassinate Lord Ding today, what will they do tomorrow?
He requested that the Dongchang budget be put in the name of the inner court, and then transferred to the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts in the name of the Suwei royal family, and the remaining part should be spent from internal funds.
Zheng Xiu was equally angry, but he could still control it.
Don't forget, Xu Jingchang is also the Commander-in-Chief of Jinyiwei. His big boss has been threatened, and if the people below him don't do anything, they are really disrespectful of their trust.
Therefore, many people gathered together. They sang poems, exchanged stereotypes, sharpened their knowledge, and had a great time.
Although he is not tall, his face is as white as jade and his facial features are exquisite. When he puts on a skirt, he can look like a crossdresser.
Isn't this going to be a big deal?
For example, Tanhua, who is ranked third, is required to have an outstanding appearance. It cannot be said that he is earth-shatteringly handsome, and he must not be someone who has just begun to take shape.
Although he was the first factory governor, his authority was not comparable to those who came after him... And even factory governors like Liu Jin and Wei Zhongxian would probably have to stop working when they met Xu Jingchang.
You must know that appearance is very advantageous in imperial examinations, especially palace examinations.
But when he left and returned, the hall was already filled with excitement.
Zheng Xiu was being held hostage and had no choice but to sign.
My uncle has repeatedly told me that now we are strictly investigating cliques for personal gains, especially scholars, and we must be careful not to let anyone get caught.
What makes everyone break through is just a simple picture!
Then allocate some special budget from internal funds.
Now that Shiha has set up the East Factory, Xu Jingchang will definitely be happy to see it come to fruition.
These words angered these young scholars.
Hearing this, Yi Shiha was happy... As a factory supervisor, except for a dozen young eunuchs, he had neither people nor money.
People like Xu Jingchang, who are tall and thin, are very advantageous.
"Immediately, whoever is afraid of whom! As long as you are admitted as a Jinshi, you must speak for the master and the saints. You cannot let vulgar warriors be compared with the saints! We disciples of Confucius and Mencius cannot embarrass our ancestors."
"Just say it, we are here to take the exam. We must first pass the Jinshi exam and become an official in the court, and then we can admonish the emperor and help the country."
The imperial examination is a ceremony for the imperial court to recruit talents, and the selected talents are also worthy of the country's dignity. Those who are not good-looking or have bad words will affect the country's image.
Of course, there are people who are willing to write anything just for the money, and there are also people who are aggrieved.
But some people didn't like to hear it, and sarcastically said: "When you become an official and gain glory and wealth, you will be even more reluctant to speak out for justice. By then, you will no longer be a treacherous sycophant."
After Yi Shiha became the factory supervisor, he was the first to visit Xu Jingchang.
A young student jumped on the table and roared loudly, "The sky overthrows it, the earth carries it. Your Majesty, your parents, your teachers, you have nurtured, taught and protected it with kindness... Master is the most holy teacher and your teacher for all generations. How can you allow them to ruin it like this!"
If you still have the guts, follow me and go find them to settle accounts!"
Jin Yiwei's roster expenses were handed over to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs... This is not to say that Xu Jingchang saw this step at that time, but that he did not want to do dirty work. Although Jin Yiwei's authority was heavy, as a spy leader, it was always not suitable for him.
his expectations.
Of course, with his current reputation, he would not even be able to pass the imperial examination, let alone the imperial examination.
Not long ago, he passed the fifth place in the Zhejiang Provincial Examination, which was second only to Jiangxi in intensity, and his results were quite impressive.
For example, Zheng Xiu came from Pujiang.
However, the fellow countryman let out a long sigh and chuckled: "Brother Zheng, I'm afraid he doesn't know that there are not only statues there, but there are also people who are telling passers-by that the warriors recaptured Peiping and drove out the barbarians. He is a great benefactor to everyone. Especially.
Damn it, they say that it was the warriors who protected the superior status of the literati, otherwise they would continue to be the dog slaves of the Yuan Dynasty."
I also lost my haha here in Xu Jingchang, and returned home with a full load, overjoyed.
As a result, I was stupid and left my name. Isn't this a bad thing?
Without thinking, he hurried to the clubhouse to get his signature back.
Therefore, princes from all provinces came to Beijing one after another.
One of Zheng Xiu's fellow villagers couldn't help but complain, "I just passed by the residence of Marquis Changxing today and found that a batch of white marble statues were being made there, which belonged to the founding heroes. Among them, King Xu Da of Zhongshan ranked first. That statue,
It's so lifelike and majestic."
When Zheng Xiu walked to the inn where he was staying, the cold wind blew and his head felt cool.
Several of the masters are even better than their masters, and have achieved great achievements in the second creation surpassing the original work.
In this way, Dongchang will have his own small treasury, where he can develop his informants and handle affairs calmly.
Double opportunities, who can refuse?
In other words, Dongchang seconded a thousand households from Jinyiwei, and this thousand households received their salary from the Ministry of War. Then, in the name of Suwei Palace, a part of it was withdrawn from the treasury.
These young scholars were filled with indignation and signed and stamped their names one after another in a lively atmosphere.
Yishihana also followed Zhu Di's horse and rushed to the battlefield and crawled out from the pile of dead.
"Okay! Sure enough, there are scholars who have formed a clique for personal gain. They are so arrogant under the emperor's feet. No wonder they threatened to assassinate Duke Ding! It seems that there really is a Confucian Society!"
Yi Shiha drew out his saber and roared at his men: "Let's go and catch the rebels with our family!"
He led two hundred imperial guards and charged out with great momentum...
