Zhao Yanxun reformed the inner court yamen and asked Huo An to go to the Zhangyin Supervisor. Wu Hong was the newly mentioned general manager of Qian'an Palace.
After the reform, the position of the Chief Manager of Qian'an Palace has been simply transformed into a service position, and its status is much worse than before.
Of course, the Chief Manager of Qian'an Palace follows the emperor closely, and his status is still relatively detached.
Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but sigh: "I have hot tea to drink, but I don't know how many people are starving and freezing!"
Wu Xuan raised his waist and replied: "The emperor cares about the people and is a benevolent and righteous king. If the people know this, they will definitely shed tears of gratitude!"
Wu Xuan was not brought up casually. He was one of the eunuchs who followed Zhao Yanxun into the vassal state and had been serving in Jinshen Hall before.
In other words, Wu Xuan has been with Zhao Yanxun for three years and has almost figured out his temperament.
"The common people... speaking of it, I haven't dealt with the common people for a long time!"
Previously in Longyou, Zhao Yanxun often left the palace and went deep into the people to understand the situation.
And from the time he started the army to now, he has been either on war or dealing with government affairs in the palace for half a year, and has basically had no contact with the people.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yanxun immediately said: "Wu Hong... go and send Zhang Meng over!"
"yes!"
In fact, Wu Xuan had already guessed what Zhao Yanxun was going to do, but he did not express his attitude towards it.
Zhao Yanxun is not an ordinary emperor. When such a person makes a decision, other people's advice will be in vain.
When Zhao Yanxun was about to leave the palace incognito, the two people who returned to the cabinet on the other side looked at each other with sad faces.
Being fined a salary was nothing to the two of them. The main thing was that the matter of relocating the people was too much.
You must know that although there are refugees in various places, it is very complicated to organize them and convey the court's wishes.
In addition, how to resettle these people, how to raise the necessary money and food, and how to manage them after resettlement can also make people anxious.
In the side hall, two cabinet ministers sat opposite each other, saying that there were a large number of memorials on the desk in the middle.
After a few breaths of silence, Cheng Wenguang sighed: "Mr. Ge, the mission sent by the emperor is not easy to handle!"
Compared to Lu Chaowen, Cheng Wenguang was less qualified, and the resettlement of the refugees was complicated, and it was Lu Chaowen who had to make the decision.
Lu Chaowen nodded: "It must be done even if it is difficult to do. We cannot betray the emperor's trust!"
Then, the hall fell silent again.
Lu Chaowen was silent, and Cheng Wenguang thought to himself: "Mr. Ge, the first step in this matter is to let the local governments inform the refugees of the imperial policies!"
"Then the local government will organize these refugees and move them to newly recovered places as planned!"
Seeing Lu Chaowen's expression of thought, Cheng Wenguang continued: "The key to success lies in the local government!"
It is only natural for local officials to obey the orders of the imperial court. However, Cheng Wenguang's emphasis on this matter at this moment means that local officials may not "work hard."
The administration of the imperial court has never been about people working non-stop as soon as the imperial edict comes out.
Especially now, the imperial court is conducting land inspections in various counties in the Central Plains and is "harshly treating" the gentry in the south, which naturally arouses dissatisfaction among officials and literati.
In fact, regarding what is happening in the Central Plains and the South, the cabinet will receive impeachment notices from time to time.
These people did not dare to criticize the emperor, so they targeted Wang Tinghe and Xie Xiaofang for impeachment.
So Cheng Wenguang had to be lucky that he could withdraw from the south in time, otherwise he would end up like Xie Xiaofang.
At this time, he analyzed a lot, but Lu Chaowen still didn't speak, which made Cheng Wenguang feel unhappy.
"Mr. Ge, you are a senior member of the imperial court, with disciples and former officials all over the world. I'm afraid you have to take charge of this matter!"
Hearing this, Lu Chaowen couldn't help but smile, secretly thinking that Cheng Wenguang finally showed his fox tail.
The so-called disciples and old officials are all over the world, which is a glory that Lu Chaowen has never had before.
During the Jingping Dynasty, people in his lineage were almost uprooted. Even if many people are restored to their original positions now, they are still far less powerful than before.
Now in the imperial court, Wang and Xie have cut off their subordinates, and there is no powerful faction.
"Old Chengge, I'm old... This matter is extremely complicated, and I still have to rely on you to take charge of it. I can just help from the side!"
Lu Chaowen smiled and said: "Although this matter is difficult, if Chengge Lao can handle it, it will be of great benefit to you!"
Looking at the old man with a warm smile in front of him, Cheng Wenguang secretly cursed "Old Fox", and then said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Ge, I have little experience after all. For such a big matter... in my opinion, we should discuss it.
how?"
After waiting for a few seconds, Lu Chaowen smiled and then said: "That's good!"
At this point, the two of them took a step back and took half of the responsibility.
Next, the two analyzed the situation in depth and began to formulate a plan in the process.
On the other side, after receiving the imperial edict, Zhang Meng selected fifty guards.
Looking at everyone, Zhang Meng said in a deep voice: "Go back now, put on your casual clothes, and meet here in half an hour!"
"As you command!"
The former left and right palace guards have now been renamed the left and right imperial guards. The strength of the two guards has been expanded to 4,000, and they are specifically responsible for guarding the imperial city.
Zhang Meng is the commander of the left imperial guard, and Hu Dabiao is the commander of the right imperial guard.
During these ten days, Zhang Meng's left guard was in charge, so Zhao Yanxun approached him.
The fifty people he arranged just now were responsible for the close protection of Zhao Yanxun. Then he summoned three more hundred households and asked them to gather their men.
In other words, during this incognito patrol, Zhao Yanxun will be protected by more than 350 guards, the minimum of whom are first-class soldiers.
The guards were preparing, but Zhao Yanxun on the other side was choosing clothes.
In front of him, there were more than a dozen eunuchs holding trays with various types of clothing placed on them.
"This is my most ordinary clothing?" Zhao Yanxun's eyes were full of questions as he glanced at Wu Xuan.
Wu Xuan was also confused at this moment. Although the emperor had many clothes, they were not many. The dozen or so sets in front of him were the only ones he had.
"Your Majesty... I really can't find any other form of servant!" Wu Xuan replied in great panic.
"These clothes are made of extremely high-quality brocade. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are priceless but cannot be worn by ordinary people..."
Walking towards the desk with his hands behind his back, Zhao Yanxun said slowly: "I wear such clothes, can I still be considered incognito?"
"this……"
This put Wu Xuan in a difficult situation. In the emperor's wardrobe, he really couldn't find any clothes made of ordinary brocade.
In fact, Wu Xuan still got it wrong. Zhao Yanxun meant that he wanted to wear the most ordinary common clothes.
"Can't find it?"
Faced with the question, Wu Xuan could only answer bravely: "Your Majesty... it is indeed not true!"
Zhao Yanxun suddenly turned around and said: "If you don't find it in the palace, then go look outside and buy me two pieces of cloth within half an hour!"
In another half hour, the guards will be almost ready, and the matter of leaving the palace can be carried out.
"Yes!" Wu Xuan replied quickly.
"Don't make a big show of it. If the news leaks out, I will not take it easy!"
"I obey the order!" Wu Xuan replied very solemnly.
Not leaking the information is not only Wu Xuan's business, but also the other eunuchs in the palace.
This is a great test of Wu Xuan's leadership. If he messes up the matter, it will undoubtedly affect his throne.
But when Wu Xuan was in a hurry and sent his cronies out of the imperial city on errands, people from the Yanshou Palace were sent to invite the emperor to have lunch.
