Chapter three hundred and thirty seventh emperor's grace
Since Xia Changshi had already visited Wuchang City to discuss, Yao Ji ordered to start preparing to move the Eunuch Province north. The Eunuch Province was born from the previous cult ward offspring and had a relatively strict division of labor. After the rectification, the powers of each branch were clearer and clearer.
;So Yao Ji only needs to make decisions and don’t have to ask about everything personally. However, it is a troublesome to deal with some privacy in her bedroom and ear room.
Later, Dongxue, the old woman who likes to wear Buddhist beads, asked: "The Eunuchs and the Provincial Department of Eunuchs are in custody, what should I do?"
There are actually not many people in the imprisonment houses set up by the Escort Province. Generally, criminals who commit crimes are interrogated and dealt with by the local government, but they do not care. However, the Escort Province attaches great importance to its own private prisons and can legally detain prisoners. This is the ultimate
A big symbol of power is not a question of how many people are locked up. Almost all dynasties have royal intelligence and spy agencies, but the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei is the most conspicuous because it has an imperial prison that can detain and interrogate prisoners without the judicial yamen.
.
When Yao Ji heard about the private prison, the first thing she thought of was Yu Qian who was detained, and said, "If Yu Qian takes him away, the others who are serious and those within the Escort Province will be killed. The misdemeanor will be handed over to the Wuchang Camping Office."
"Yes." Dong Xue replied, reminding him, "The Xin Wei Sword Master who was caught half a month ago... was the one who was in white clothes in the palace for a few days. The man who wanted to escape later should be killed?
”
The white-clothed servants beside Yao Ji are trusted guards, and most people can't touch them, so Dongxue asked specifically. This type of servants has been with him for a long time and knows many secrets, so once they come in, they are not allowed to defect; they have no surnames or no
Names, no name is allowed to be used again, there is only one title, A, B, C, and D are arranged in this way. Entering the ranks of white-clothed servants, Yao Ji needs to nod in person, and the other is to ask them to choose by themselves, and they agree with you and my wishes. But once they are not allowed to do so, they are willing to do so.
When you come in, betrayal is a crime that cannot be forgiven.
Then the Xin Wei mentioned by Dongxue is only dead end according to the rules. Yao Ji was about to nodded when she suddenly remembered something and asked, "I remember she is pretty?"
Dong Xue said: "No, it's not. You are young and handsome at the age of sixteen or seventeen, but it may not be a good thing to be young. After being tortured, it should not be a meticulous work that was instructed by someone to sneak in, otherwise it would have been called. It must be because of the ignorance of young people.
The disaster that comes from being sensible is caused by oneself.”
Yao Ji said: "Let's leave your life for the time being and take it away."
"yes."
...
An urgent report was sent to the Wuchang Senate Office. After reading the content items, the officers who sent and received and processed the official documents hurriedly went straight to Zhu Heng.
A large number of officials were found in Huangzhou through Pinghu Pass. Pinghu Pass is in the central part of Huangzhou and west of Dabie Mountain. As long as the army passes through several nearby passes, it will be like walking on flat ground when it reaches the north bank of the Yangtze River. Zhu Heng is in Zhang in private
Ning speculated in front of him, would the official army want to attack Jiujiang?
A few days later, the scouts of Yongding Camp reported the military information again, and an official navy approached the mouth of Poyang Lake. All signs made Zhu Heng feel a little restless in front of Zhang Ning. He said restlessly: "A while ago, the west of Shenji Camp
When transferred to Jingzhou, the Sichuan Army went east. Is it just a plan to attack the west? The target of Jingying is Jiujiang Prefecture?"
Zhang Ning took a ruler to measure it on the map. Although the drawings were not accurate, the approximate distance was still the same. "Wuchang Prefecture is almost four hundred miles away from Jiujiang City."
Zhu Heng frowned and just sat down and stood up again. He must have been in a bad mood at this time. At the time, the Senate Department decided to arrange the heavy troops of the Suzaku Army on the west side of Dongting Lake, but now the east side is quickly threatened. He served as the Senate
The top aide of the civil servants and counselors is to blame. To look at it big, it can be said to be a strategic mistake.
Zhu Heng nodded vigorously and said, "Wuchang is too far away. The main reason is that our troops are far from enough. Only Yongding Camp can fight here... Jiujiang is a place controlled by the Han Palace. If we don't say hello, the army will be in a big way, and there will be a lot of trouble.
Now there is not enough time to contact Nanjing during fortification."
Zhang Ning found that there was nothing he could do, but calmed down. He said kindly: "It's no wonder that Zhubutang. The fundamental reason is that our troops are not enough to deal with such a long front line. I think it's a bit too much for Zhubutang to attack the west just now.
, with such a large-scale military mobilization, the court will not use any conspiracy, and it will be useless if it is used... It may be that the Beijing camp intends to attack on two fronts."
After hearing this, Zhu Heng looked at Zhang Ning with complex emotions, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed to feel that he was still a young man to comfort him when he was old.
Zhang Ning asked again: "The last time the arms sent to the Han Wangjun was confirmed to have been delivered to Jiujiang Prefecture?"
"Yes, it has been delivered." Zhu Heng nodded.
"Very good..." Zhang Ning turned his head slightly, as if he was looking at something else. There was a little natural pause. He turned around and said, "It's getting late. Today, Mrs. Yao is going to Wuchang. I
When I went to the city gate to greet me, I would be in charge of Zhubutang in the official office.”
Zhu Heng hurriedly held the etiquette and said, "I must plan with my heart and give it to the prince."
Seeing Zhang Ning leaving, Zhu Heng remembered the way he looked when he said that last time. He had been with Zhang Ning for a long time and knew some habits well enough to Zhu Heng... Whenever Zhang Ning encountered a problem, he would always do it.
In such a move, turning your head to look at something else seems to deliberately conceal your hesitation; but it will not give people a feeling of being absent-minded, because the slight rotation of their eyes seems to be thinking about problems.
Perhaps Zhang Ning was a cautious and indecisive person, but he never showed that he was consciously overcoming his weaknesses.
So what is his attitude? I confirm the arms again, which means that I can rely on the military power of the Han King to resist the Eastern Front? Zhu Heng was a man from the Han King's Mansion and always felt that it was not reliable, but is there any other way now?
Zhang Ning took the guard out of the city to wait, and indeed waited for Yao Ji's group of people. Because yesterday, the card was consulted to report the whereabouts of the Eunuch Province. Of course, there was not much welcome ceremony for a person with a concubine entering the city, which was completely different from the time when Jianwenjia was temporarily;
Zhang Ning can show respect by going out of the city to greet him personally.
The place chosen by the Provincial Escort Province is still in the Palace of King Chu, and Emperor Jianwen's palace is also here. Because the Palace of King Chu covers a wide area and has a lot of buildings, the staff suggested that the Provincial Escort Province be located here, one is majestic and the other is to let Zhang
Ning's mother's mother lived in the palace, which showed her desire to unite the alliance...so Yao Ji would also live in the Chu Palace.
This palace was originally the palace of Zhu Zhen, the sixth son of Taizu, King Zhao of Chu. When the Zhuque army attacked Wuchang City, the owner of the place, King Chu was already the second, and Zhu Zhen's son, King Zhu Menghan. However, King Zhuang of Chu was in the army.
He ran away before he arrived at Wuchang City. When Zhang Ning took Wuchang City, there was only an empty palace and some irrelevant eunuch palace maids left here.
I remember that when Emperor Jianwen first entered the city, he wanted to move into the Chu Palace. He pretended to behave and was so reluctant. He said that this was his cousin's palace, and it was a bit unrighteous to drive his younger brother away and live there himself... It was said that King Zhuang of Chu and Jian
Emperor Wen is really a cousin who is just a fake one. Jianwen's father Zhu Biao and King Zhuang of Chu's father Zhu Zhen are both princes and brothers of Taizu. Later, Zhang Ning said that King Chu ran away himself, and so many houses are empty.
It would be okay to lend it to the emperor's brother as a palace. It would be better to return it to the King of Chu in the future, and Jianwen agreed.
Zhang Ning rode a horse and then Yao Ji's convoy entered the city from the south city gate. Through the Chayuan Street, he went to the Beigong Gate of the King of Chu Mansion. The reason for this street is very simple. The Huguang Censorate is here. Everyone from
The north gate is because the Chu Palace is divided into inner and outer palaces. From the south main gate is the outer palace; the north is the inner palace, which is also the scope of the inner province. The emperor lives in the main hall of the outer palace, and the Zhongzheng Hall, the Huangen Hall and other buildings are more grand;
The "Secretary of the Inner Palace" will be located in the inner palace and enter from the north gate. The pavilions and towers are suitable for living, but there are no large palaces.
Of course, the majesty was left to Emperor Jianwen, which is why Zhang Ning needed him. The provincial eunuch could nominally be the emperor's harem, but in fact it was the force controlled by Yao Ji; in contrast, Zhang Ning, the vassal king, was in Wuchang City.
He didn't even have a palace, and he lived in the official office.
There is a plaque on the Beigong Gate, which reads: Emperor's grace is Haodang. However, the name of this gate is not called Emperor's grace is Haodang Gate, but "Wangjing Gate". The name was changed after Emperor Yongle moved the capital to Beijing; it has no special meaning, it is Chu.
The king said that he missed the emperor in the capital very much.
The people walked through the two-meter-wide main road that extended the south gate and stopped in front of a two-story house. Zhang Ning jumped off the horse, handed the reins to the groom, walked straight to the carriage, and waved to the support of one.
The white-clothed servant opened the door of Yao Ji himself. When Yao Ji bent down, he gently stretched out his arm. Yao Ji smiled and then helped his wrist to get out of the car.
Zhang Ning pointed to a wide road in the distance in front of him and said, "This is the division between the inside and outside of the Chu Palace. In front of him, the father's servants cannot go there at will... Of course you want
It is OK to go to pay homage to my father in person." He lowered his voice slightly, "Outside the palace, including the Nanzhengmen Eunuch Province, can hold hands to the palace to prevent the minor and evil people from plagiarizing the palace."
Yao Ji nodded slightly with her neck straight, without saying a word, looked back and glanced over Zhang Ning's face, her eyes shining brightly, and then gently took her hand away from his wrist. Everyone around was the eunuch.
At this time, all the attendants bent down and looked at the ground with their eyes.
Zhang Ning said again: "My mother was exhausted all the way, and she rested early today to relieve her fatigue, so my son would not bother her."
"The King of Xiang has been very busy recently?" Yao Ji opened her red lips and asked lightly.
Zhang Ning turned his head and looked at the unappreciated road surface. After thinking for a moment, he replied: "I'm not very busy. I've been to the official office this morning. The officials of the Senate Department are enough to deal with daily government affairs."
After hearing this, Yao Ji said, "Then you stay and have a meal with me. I haven't seen you for a long time, and I want to talk to you."
