Chapter Five Hundred and Forty This is a big deal!
It is said that since Mr. Li accused the Nancheng Procuratorate and the Military and Horse Division of "disobedience to the king" of the serious crime of embezzlement and perverting the law, and destroyed them in one fell swoop, the entire Wucheng Procuratorate was suddenly shocked.
Through this time, the patrol censors and military commanders of the other four cities really realized Li You's methods. As the saying goes, a sight is worse than a hundred hearings, and all remaining arrogance quietly dissipated.
Although Mr. Li is young, he has rich experience in fighting for power and can be called a veteran. At present, he has temporarily suppressed Bai Shilang's momentum and has freed his hands, so he wants to take advantage of the fear of his subordinates before they recede.
When the iron is hot, strike immediately.
He summoned Master Cui and ordered: "Draw up a memorial and report two matters to the court."
Cui Zhenfei listened attentively and secretly memorized the key points.
“The first is to request the imperial court to coordinate the money and food matters of the Five Cities Procuratorate and the Military and Horse Division in the General Procuratorate, and change the direct allocation from the Ministry of Revenue to the Ministry of Revenue to allocate it to the General Procuratorate, and then the General Procuratorate distributes it to each procuratorate.
, Military and Horse Division. The second is to request the General Procuratorate to be responsible for assessing each procuratorate, Military and Horse Division, and report to the Ministry of Personnel and the Procuratorate every year."
After Master Cui heard this, he understood what the proprietor was thinking. He grabbed the money and food with one hand, and the assessment with the other, using both swords. Anyone who disobeyed would die.
If these two items are implemented, then the phenomenon of scattered troops in the five cities and ten yamen, divided and governed will become a thing of the past, and will eventually be strongly integrated by the proprietor.
This approach is quite in line with the proprietor's usual arbitrary style, Master Cui thought to himself. At the same time, he came up with an idea and said to Li Youjian: "We can ask the court to change the names of the five government offices of the censors who patrol the city.
It is a branch procuratorate. For example, the Dongcheng Procuratorate is changed to the Dongcheng Branch Procuratorate.”
"Wonderful!" Li You was overjoyed when he heard this and praised loudly. His government office is called the General Procuratorate. If the procuratorate in each city is renamed as the branch procuratorate, then the real superior-subordinate relationship will be determined from the name alone. The country and the dynasty will still be very different.
Those who pay attention to their names should be honest about their words. At that time, although the censors of each city patrol were sent by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they had to completely obey his command, Li You.
"You have been following me for two years. You have not wasted your time. You have made great progress!" Mr. Li, who was over 20 years old, praised Master Cui, who was over 40 years old.
If you can control the Wucheng Yuan Si and control this network covering more than 500 shops in 36 squares in the capital, it will be a bit like a castrated version of Jinyiwei. It's just that the name is not Tiqi Mount Detective.
Nor is it directed at ministers.
Okay, this is Mr. Li's ambition at this stage. When you die, you leave your name, and when you die, you leave your voice. Li You, who has a shortcomings in his background, must deliberately establish and maintain his image as a capable minister who has the courage to do things.
Even if you mess up or do bad things, it is better than doing nothing. In layman's terms, it means allowing failure, but refusing to be mediocre. Not struggling is not enough to show talent.
A blank paper is easy to draw on. Although new yamen are often inherently deficient, fortunately everything is uncertain and there are not so many sticklers. The more power you have, the more power you can win. It is very suitable for an aggressive strongman like Li You to play.
After explaining the key points of the memorial to Mr. Cui, Mr. Li asked about several important cases in the Yamen. After being a criminal judge for so many years, he has become very proficient in handling cases. The troublesome matters that should be thrown to the Criminal Department should be thrown to the Criminal Department, and those that should be reported to the Emperor
Part 1: Self-disposal that should be handled by oneself.
After asking, it was almost noon, and Li You was preparing to rest and have a meal. Suddenly, Zhang San, the gatekeeper, came to report: "Dai Miaozhu from that county is here to visit."
This guy finally came, Li You murmured in his heart. If Dai didn't come over again, he would have to change his general and look for another puppet candidate.
But he said that a few days ago, Dai Gong got Mr. Li's signal and knew that Mr. Li was going to use him as a shopkeeper in the bank. If it were an ordinary person, he would be overjoyed, but Mr. Dai didn't believe that it was a pie in the sky, so he started again. He looked at the lady suspiciously.
Mr. Dai wanted to politely refuse Mr. Li's solicitation, dispose of the goods as quickly as possible, and then take his wife to leave Beijing and return home quickly.
However, he was stopped by his wife again, and the Han family said: "I take the initiative to recruit people, and others are eager to get close to me. What do you think, you are useless! If you work with Mr. Li, our life will be easier." There are many? If you don’t take the Yangguan Road, why do you insist on looking for the narrow paths?"
Mr. Dai couldn't win over his wife, so the couple decided that Dai Gong would go to the Yamen today to see Mr. Li and settle the matter. Meanwhile, Mr. Han went to Li's house and visited every door to keep in touch with Li You's wives and concubines.
It is said that these days, there is a term for the business of women in the market as "three aunts and six women". A group of women hang out in the back houses of wealthy families, chatting with the idle ladies, telling the latest news from outside, attending matchmaking, pulling fibers, and doing divination. , flying needles and threads, and even female storytellers.
Ms. Han was responsible for receiving female guests at the Chenghuang Temple in Xujiang County, and she often came to provide services. She looked like a "three aunts and six wives". So this time she wanted to resume her old career and go to the back house of the Li family to build a good relationship.
Li You met Dai Gong and exchanged polite greetings in the hall. One said, "I'm very grateful. If you don't give up, I'm willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses." It’s right.”
Mr. Li had nothing else to say for a while, so he chatted with Dai Gong about his hometown. Suddenly he remembered the female official from Xujiang whom he met in the inner city of the palace that day. It was promised. And the man named Dai in front of me has been the chief priest of Xujiang County Town God's Temple for many years, so he should be very familiar with the people in the county.
Thinking of this, Li You asked casually: "Mr. Dai is in Xujiang County. Do you know that there is a family named Han in Xiguanli Lane in the west of the city? There are two women. The eldest daughter is a widow and was elected to the palace more than ten years ago. As a female official."
Dai Gong turned pale and said: "As you said, this is my in-law's family! The eldest daughter came to the palace more than ten years ago, and the second daughter is Jian Nei. The youngest and Jian Nei came to Beijing this time, also with the idea of seeking relatives, but There is no door, no way, no access to the palace, how did the eldest master know about it?"
Li You was extremely surprised, what a coincidence! He didn't expect that the female officer's relative was Han Shenpo, and she happened to come to the capital at this time.
The matter involved a palace ban, so out of caution, Li You did not reveal the truth at first, thinking that he would wait until he saw the female official again before making further arguments.
However, in Dai Gong's eyes, he was very worried. He just felt that Mr. Li must have connections and information about his wife's eldest sister, but he refused to disclose it. It was obvious that he had some hidden agenda, and it was most likely to be about women...
Just as Li You was about to say something more, an internal prison officer came to him and sent a message: "Gui De Qiansui has summoned Mr. Li."
Mr. Li shook his head and sighed, this woman is becoming more and more public! At first, she secretly invited her in the name of her consort, but now she has been summoning her in her own name several times in a row. This is too imprudent!
Fortunately, her political attributes were too strong, which diluted her image as a woman in the minds of others. Her intention to win over Li You, a rapidly rising figure, was well known throughout the city. The more upright the summons, the less likely others would think of adultery.
Li You arrived at the residence of Princess Gui De of the Tenth Prince's Palace with ease, and then went to the side hall to see Chitose. At this time, the princess was anxiously teaching her one-year-old son how to read. When she saw her lover, she put down the scroll in her hand and sent him away again.
The wet nurse took Xiao Liu'er away and said to Li You: "You can make Bai Shilang miserable this time."
Seeing that the rest of the gang had gone out, Li You sat down beside the eldest princess unceremoniously and said casually: "What? Are you feeling distressed? Do you want to intercede for them?"
Li You expected that the Conglong sect represented by Bai Shilang was a close confidant of the emperor, and Gui De Qiantose probably supported them. He wanted to ask for a favor today. But as long as the situation was unstable, he would not be able to agree to an agreement with Bai Shilang.
The minister made peace.
Thinking about it gives me a headache, it's another conflict that needs to be resolved, Li You thought.
However, Princess Guide did not continue, and the conversation turned to something else, "The commander of the Zhongcheng Army and Horse Department, Gou Fei, has been recovering at home after being beaten by you. Recently, he is preparing to resume his duties and return to the Yamen. See,
Since he has suffered a big loss, and for my sake, you should stop arguing with him. I guarantee that he will not dare to challenge you in the future."
Li You flatly refused: "He must either resign and find another job, or he can recuperate at home. In short, don't show up in Zhongcheng again!"
"You are being overbearing now. Commander Gou Fei is still an official of the imperial court. It is only natural for him to go to the Yamen and go to the Yamen. Why don't you allow him to resume his duties after being injured?" Princess Guide said dissatisfied. Gou Fei's father, Wu Anbo, begged her a few days ago.
I really couldn't refuse, so I had to talk to Li You.
"Just because I am the admiral of the Five Cities Censor, I don't want any bad apples to corrupt the morale among my subordinate officials! You can guarantee him for a while, but you can't guarantee him for the rest of his life!" Li You said firmly and refused to give in.
In fact, Mr. Li is suffering from paranoia. He really doesn't want to have such an unstable factor as Gou Fei among his subordinates. Who knows whether this person holds a grudge or not? Maybe something embarrassing will happen.
In the past, Princess Guide would have stood head-to-head with Li You, and had to distinguish right from wrong, until the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dark, the sun and the moon were naked, and her clothes were not covered, and she had to fight with each other to determine who was superior.
But today she said nothing more and started talking about something new, "Did you know that there is new news about Concubine Jin Xian in the palace? I just learned about it."
Li You heard this and asked with concern: "What news?"
"After diagnosis, Concubine Jin Xian is indeed pregnant." His Royal Highness Chitose did not show off and pointed it out directly.
This is a big deal! Li You was stunned. He could put aside his relationship with anyone, but his relationship with Concubine Jin Xian could not be separated. Anyone who knew the inside story would not think that he was Concubine Jin Xian's helper in the outer court.
.
Pregnancy is a big deal, but if this cheap sister-in-law gives birth to the emperor's eldest son, it will be even more of a big deal! And if there is no child in the palace in the future, it will be a big deal among big things!
No matter it is a big or small matter, Mr. Li discovered that he has asked Princess Guide again. Only she who has deep influence in the palace can protect Concubine Jin Xian. Otherwise, given the shady situation in the palace, there is no guarantee that any accident will happen.
Princess Guide waited quietly for Li You to ponder, until his eyes suddenly flashed and quickly changed into a soft mode. It is said that this is the "eyes as deep as the sea" that have recently become famous in the capital.
At this point, His Highness Chitose calmly clenched a pink fist in his sleeves. It is very gratifying and congratulatory! This slippery lover has another small handle in her hands after Xiao Liuer. (To be continued.)
