"The chief manager is a smart man."

Zhao Zhilong stopped talking, with a smile on his face.

Du Sheng had already seen his ambition, so he stopped pretending, smiled coldly, and said to him:

"Do you want our family to recommend you for the position of assistant guard?"

Hearing this, Zhao Zhilong panicked for a moment, then calmed down, nodded and said: "Wei Guogong himself gave up the favor of the imperial court, and Nanjing has not been garrisoned by the Wuxun Association for nearly twenty years. ”

"This is not good news for Wu Xun and the Grand Administrator."

"If the imperial court discovers that there is no difference between the establishment of this assistant garrison and the non-establishment of this position, and this position will no longer be set up, won't Wuxun never have a bright day?"

Du Sheng snorted coldly, and his mind secretly became active.

After a long time, he suddenly smiled again:

"Zhao Zhilong, there are many martial artists in Nanjing City, and there are people with higher status than you, how can you conclude that the emperor will take the post of assistant garrison and give you a pulse of Xin Chengbo?"

Zhao Zhilong smiled:

"It's because I can't be sure that I came to the chief manager!"

"Do you think, who am I, and who are you, who made me an assistant guard, those who dance and write ink, and do you have good fruits to eat?"

After saying that, he smiled sadly.

Du Sheng glanced at him, and also picked up the teacup and drank it.

......

When the emperor is outside, there is no need to hold a court meeting, and the chapter still has to be watched.

When the inner supervisor brought a pile of "homework", it was already dusk on the day he arrived in Nanjing, and Zhu Youxiao was like in the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, shrunk in the chair of the imperial tent to rest, but the blue cat was missing in his arms.

"Meow~"

Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao opened his eyes lazily, smiled slightly, and put the good news from Sun Chuanting and his imperial pen in his hand side by side on the table, and teased:

"You brought it with you."

"It's all for your majesty's liking."

Wang Chaofu was also glad that he had made this decision without hiding it from the Emperor of the Apocalypse, stood aside, and said in a low voice:

"Your Majesty likes it so much, then give the little lord a name."

"Name, this I'm not the best at it, Assuke, you tell me about it."

Zhu Youxiao hugged the blue cat, kept stroking with one hand, closed his eyes a little tiredly, and then let out a soft "um" from his nose and stretched his breath.

During this time, he was thinking about how to carry out the reform of Nanjing.

Since the Yongle year, Nanjing City has retained a complete set of imperial institutions, including the civil system of the large and small Jiuqing, the military system of the five military governors, and the internal minister system of the twenty-four supervision bureaus.

Compared with the institutions of the same level in Beijing, the imperial court institutions set up in Nanjing were far less powerful due to the simplicity of government affairs, but the salaries were not much at all.

In the Ming Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties regarded Nanjing as the fundamental place, and no one thought of abolishing the small court in Nanjing, without exception, they all paid special attention to its security situation.

From the end of Yongle to the beginning of Jingtai, after the management and improvement of successive emperors, Nanjing gradually formed a unique Nanjing garrison system, until today.

The Nanjing garrison officials come from the three systems of internal ministers, military ministers, and civil ministers, and are composed of one person of the internal supervision and garrison (Neichen), one person of the co-garrison (Wu Xun), and one counselor (Wenchen), who are jointly responsible for the preservation of Nanjing.

The external garrison and the coordinated garrison were originally inherited by the Duke of Wei, and until the contemporary Duke of Wei Xu Hong voluntarily gave up his position based on the 20th year of Wanli, he had been in charge of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies in Nanjing and its subordinate guards.

Du Sheng, the internal garrison, commanded the various supervision bureaus in Nanjing and presided over the internal affairs of the Nanjing Imperial Palace.

Counselors are generally held by the Nanjing Military Department, and now Wang Yongguang is the leader, presiding over the Nanjing Military Department and the daily government affairs of all sizes, with the greatest power.

Compared with the foreign minister civil and military, Du Sheng, as the internal supervisor and garrison, may not have as much power as the military department secretary who is the counselor, but his duties are more extensive, and he also has the right to participate in the military affairs that Wu Xun is in charge of.

Because Du Sheng was born in Weimen, it is widely rumored that he has the trust and support of the emperor, and in the past two years, he has often surpassed Wenchen in Nanjing's affairs, and has actually become the second force in power in Nanjing.

In addition, the internal supervision guard Du Sheng also played an important role in maintaining the security and stability of the Nanzhili area.

Nanjing outside the garrison, coordinated garrison by the lord of the minister, the Ming generation, the lord in the early position of high power, after the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the power gradually replaced by the minister, the decline of day by day.

The role of the external garrison and the coordinated garrison in maintaining the security of Nanjing was not as good as that of the counselor, and as for gaining the trust of the emperor, it was not as good as the internal guard, but was often suspicious.

With the abolition of the armaments of the guards in various places and the lack of attention of the warriors, the Wei Guogongs of the past dynasties, who were the garrisons of Nanjing, also had more positions in reserve, and they had long been in vain.

This is also the reason why Xu Hongji voluntarily gave up his position, he has already discovered that in fact, the cooperative garrison is completely inferior to the internal supervision garrison and the military department in terms of the right to speak in Nanjing affairs.

Even for matters that need to be handled by the assistant garrison, the internal supervision garrison and the secretary of the military department can also participate in it, and disputes and disputes often have to be formed.

Moreover, the status of Wuxun is declining, and in terms of power, it cannot be called the third force at all, and now in Nanjing, the Wenchen forces are checked and balanced by the "eunuch party" headed by Du Sheng, the internal prison garrison.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao turned his head and found that Wang Chaofu was writing his name on the paper, so he deliberately paid attention to his penmanship and said teasingly:

"Er's brushwork, if it weren't for the body of the axe, you could also go to the Hanlin exam, I can be appointed to the cabinet, and I will also let you be a university scholar."

"Your Majesty has an overreputation, with the ability of a slave and maid, where can you be a scholar?"

After Wang Chaofu finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao laughed:

"A university scholar, just read and write."

Wang Chaofu could naturally hear that the words of the Emperor of the Apocalypse were full of dissatisfaction and disdain for those so-called scholars and sages.

His eyes lit up and he said:

"Your Majesty likes the name of the scholar, so call it the scholar of the cat room?"

"Scholar of Cat House..."

Zhu Youxiao muttered and chuckled:

"It's a bit nondescript to call the cat room, so let's make a decision, from now on, change the cat room inside the big house to the cat pavilion, as for it..."

"Just call him a fellow of the Cat Court! What do you think? ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Wang Chaofu listened, and hurriedly bowed down and shouted.

Zhu Youxiao hugged the Maoge scholar in his arms, looked at the words written by Fang Cai Chaofu, and said: "Your two words can be regarded as dignified, so it is a pity to bury them." ”

"Ask the person who supervised the department to send it to Funing Houfu and send him to watch."

Wang Chaofu looked at the emperor for a long time, and then looked back at his "graffiti", and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, before he entered the celebrant supervisor, although he studied in the inner study for two days, this word can only be described as miserable.

Sending a pair of such words to the past, Wang Chaofu didn't know what the emperor was going to do.

......

It has been a day since the emperor came to Nanjing, and he has not had any will, nor has he entered the city of Nanjing, so I don't know if there is something brewing again.

Zhu Guobi was very nervous for a while, because the Ying Tianfu Yamen was arresting people on a large scale.

Ying Tianzhifu is a person from the eunuch party, and this time the arrest is all in the market, and Li Sancai's protégé is selected to arrest him, and he must have received Du Sheng's instructions.

How did Du Sheng know about their plans?

Du Sheng did this, could it be that he received Wei Zhongxian's instructions?

Zhu Guobi had just finished discussing with Li Sancai in the restaurant, and both of them had a question mark in their stomachs, but the matter had come to this point, and they still had to continue to raise and launch the water at any cost, and they couldn't be the only ones to carry this matter.

Dora people cushion their backs, so that they can fall not lightly, if they can pull Du Sheng, who is at the top of the eunuch party, into the water, maybe there will be a turnaround!

Back in the house, Funing waited for Zhu Guobi listlessly, without raising his head, and said to the housekeeper:

"If someone comes to look for them, they will say that they are sick and will not see any guests!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for the butler's reply for a long time.

Zhu Guobi put down what he was doing, and turned his head angrily, only to find that the housekeeper's face was pale, and he stammered a little when he spoke.

"Hou, Hou, Master, Tian Ergeng is here."

"What is he here for?"

Zhu Guobi suddenly sobered up.
