After returning to the General Administration Department, Zhao Bingzhong immediately found his subordinates.

This person can be regarded as his confidant and his student, his name is Chen Sihai, and he is a middle-aged man in his thirties.

This person has a strong figure and good facial features, and he was originally Lang Zhong of the Arsenal Division of the Ministry of War, but this time he was transferred to his subordinates by Zhao Bingzhong and was in charge of the newly established Yamen.

The name of this yamen is called the Inspection Division, which sounds simple and clear, and the full name is the General Administration Inspection Division.

Regarding the situation of this yamen, there are not many people outside who know about it, only the bigwigs in the court know. The inspection department has a very high internal level in the general administration department, and is only responsible for Zhao Bingzhong.

Chen Sihai came to Zhao Bingzhong and saluted respectfully: "I've seen the teacher." ”

Zhao Bingzhong nodded and said, "There is a secret music here, you can take a look." ”

As he spoke, Zhao Bingzhong handed the secret music in his hand to Chen Sihai.

Stretching out his hand to fold the music, Chen Sihai quickly flipped through it.

In fact, he is in charge of the Inspection Division, and the fact that he has reached this point that he can see only proves one problem, that is, there has been a decision from above.

According to the process of the General Administration Department, after the fold is handed over, the documents are first opened and checked, and then the level is demarcated according to the priority and handed to Zhao Bingzhong.

Then a few bigwigs from the General Administration Department will be responsible for screening, and the light ones will be handed over to these inspection departments to investigate. If it is a relatively large matter, it will be handed to His Majesty.

Chen Sihai knew in his heart that the first errand of the Inspection Division was coming. At the same time, he was curious, what kind of errand would this be?

You must know that everyone outside is staring at the Inspection Division, all of them are looking at the General Administration Department, and they are all looking at their own teachers.

In other words, the choice of the first case of the General Secretary is very important.

First of all, the case needs to be big enough to demonstrate the strength of the General Administration.

Second, the evidence in this case must be conclusive, and it cannot be unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, otherwise it will be meaningless.

Looking at it, Chen Sihai's eyes narrowed, and the expression on his face became serious.

The people who went on this show are really bold, and they actually directly impeached King Fu and the prefect of Henan, and they are really bold!

The key problem is that you don't need to check the situation to know that it is true. The vassal kings everywhere are all encroaching on the land, not to mention the blessed king, which vassal king does not do this?

If a county or a prefecture is land, it is considered less. Like Fuwang, he embezzled most of Henan Province, and in addition, he also monopolized shops, restaurants, and various commercial businesses in various places.

For example, the more famous Fuwang Mansion, they also interfered in salt politics.

This is not a problem with King Fu, this was done by Emperor Wanli back then, Wanli gave King Fu countless salt leads, and they were all salt from Lianghuai, allowing him to open a shop to sell salt.

This led to King Fu's massive involvement in Jianghuai's salt administration, and all the money flowed into his King Fu's mansion. If he just relied on farming, he wouldn't be able to save so much money.

It can be said that the current King Fu is the largest salt seller in the Lianghuai region and a private businessman, but he does not pay taxes.

This policy is very responsible. Because the only income of the Ming Dynasty now may be salt.

Everyone knows that if King Fu can be moved, then the court will definitely make a fortune.

Under such circumstances, no one did not want to move the Fu King, but no one dared to make such a suggestion.

The reason is also very simple, King Fu is the uncle of His Majesty today. Back then, the first emperor and King Fu competed for the throne, it took a lot of effort, and there were once rumors that King Fu wanted to murder the first emperor.

In such a situation, whoever asks His Majesty to move the Fu King, those who don't know will think that His Majesty is retaliating.

Dividing the feelings of the heavenly family, such a responsibility can not be borne by ordinary people. What's more, all people with a little brain understand that King Fu is really just King Fu?

Since King Fu went to Luoyang, since he intervened in the salt administration, he has become the common assistant of the entire Jianghuai salt merchants, and even the entire Jiangnan salt merchants.

King Fu represents not only himself, but also a huge interest group behind him, and these people are the salt merchants in Jiangnan.

Once King Fu is moved, it is equivalent to angering those salt merchants, and what those people will say is conceivable.

In addition, the emperor himself was unwilling, so it was particularly difficult to promote this matter.

After Chen Sihai saw this setback, he felt that this would be another fruitless setback.

He didn't know why the teacher had taken it out, because it was an impossible thing to do.

Chen Sihai raised his head and looked at Zhao Bingzhong, and said, "But is it to check the prefect of Henan?" ”

In Chen Sihai's opinion, the only one who can be checked is the prefect of Henan.

But the first case was just to check a prefect?

This is too small, and it is completely inconsistent with the original intention of the first case to make it big, and I am afraid it will not deter anyone. Chen Sihai still didn't understand.

Looking at Chen Sihai's puzzled face, Zhao Bingzhong slowly put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Check what is written on it, check it according to what is written in the fold, you can go to this matter yourself." ”

Chen Sihai said with some hesitation: "Teacher, does Your Majesty know about this?" ”

No wonder Chen Sihai asked this, this matter is too big, if His Majesty doesn't know, I'm afraid there will be trouble.

He didn't worry about himself, because there was a teacher who had an accident. But the problem is that the teacher now has a bright future, is in charge of the General Administration, and has won the trust of His Majesty.

Whether as a subordinate or as a student for many years, Chen Sihai felt that he should ask.

Zhao Bingzhong glanced at Chen Sihai and said, "I just came back from the palace. This fold has already been shown to His Majesty, and in His Majesty's words, since it has already been folded, then I have to go down to check it out to see if it is true, so let you go. ”

Zhao Bingzhong didn't say too much to Chen Sihai, he was afraid that the other party would be wrong.

"Yes, Master, I'll take someone with me after I go back and make arrangements." Chen Sihai hurriedly said.

Although the Inspection Division has not been established for a long time, it still has some manpower, after all, His Majesty does not limit what personnel they can transfer. These people happened to bring them all over this time, which can be regarded as an experience.

There is still a shortage of manpower in front of them, and this time I can train them, and it is enough to investigate a case alone.

Zhao Bingzhong nodded and said, "If you don't have enough manpower, you can mobilize the local Jinyi Guard." There should already be a line of writing on the Jinyi Guard's side, and they will let the local Jinyi Guard cooperate with us. ”

Nodding slightly, Chen Sihai didn't say anything.

Although Zhao Bingzhong said cooperation, Chen Sihai knew very well in his heart, I am afraid that there is still a sense of surveillance in it.

But it doesn't matter, just watch.

"Go back and prepare well and set off as soon as possible." Zhao Bingzhong waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Master." Chen Sihai agreed and saluted Zhao Bingzhong.

He said with some concern: "Once this matter makes a fuss, I am afraid that the teacher will become the target of the public." If you can't do anything, you have to protect yourself. ”

Looking at his student's worried look, Zhao Bingzhong smiled and waved his hand and said, "I have won the trust of Your Majesty, and the great Ming reputation of the two generations of father and son, how can I retreat at this time?" ”

"You do your own thing, don't worry about me."

Chen Sihai knew what his teacher meant by the two generations of grace.

The teacher's father was the original right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and the teacher also won the champion back then, and now he has the trust of His Majesty.

Both generations of father and son are high-ranking officials in the court, and they have won the trust of the courtiers, which is a favor for the courtiers.

Looking at Zhao Bingzhong's firm attitude, Chen Sihai also knew that it was useless to say anything, so he said: "The teacher can rest assured, I will definitely handle things well in Luoyang, and I will definitely not let the teacher down." ”

"Go ahead, do a good job, be careful on the road." Zhao Bingzhong also instructed.

Looking at the back of Chen Sihai leaving, the relaxation on Zhao Bingzhong's face disappeared.

This time the matter was too big, and at the same time he was worried about another thing in his heart. That is, once this matter is done, then what should the royal relatives do?

You must know that there are a lot of such things, the emperor's uncle can move, so there is nothing else that cannot be moved.

At that time, there will definitely be a swarm of people who will write to impeach these relatives of the emperor, and this will be the case in the future. In order to protect themselves, civil officials will definitely do the same, and if they go to check the emperor's relatives and relatives, they must check their own good.

If that's the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult for both sides. If things really get out of hand, I'm afraid I'll be a scapegoat.

I wonder if Your Majesty can bear it?

Zhao Bingzhong couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart, and then shook his head with a wry smile.

Even if there are really so many things, you can start to investigate from the civil service. In a word, you must grasp the scale.

West Garden.

Zhu Youxiao just finished drinking a bowl of chilled lotus seed soup, and it tasted very good. In the slightly hot weather, he experienced a touch of coolness.

Satisfied, he placed the porcelain bowl on the tray and reclined back in his rocking chair.

On the ground not far away, there was a man on his knees.

This person is in his thirties, dressed in brocade clothes. He knelt on the ground very respectfully, not daring to move.

Zhu Youxiao shook the rocking chair a few times leisurely, and said softly: "Okay, get up." ”

After the man stood up, Zhu Youxiao slowly asked, "I heard that you were a martial artist?" It can be seen that the bow and horse sword should be good, right? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister's bow, horse, sword and sword are acceptable." The man said hurriedly.

"Let's try it." Zhu Youxiao looked at Qi Yuanfu not far away and beckoned to him.

When Qi Yuanfu walked in front of him, Zhu Youxiao said, "Take him down to practice." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Qi Yuanfu hurriedly agreed, and turned to look at the person.

The man didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly arched his hand at Qi Yuanfu. Does he know who this Qi Yuanfu is, the son of Qi Jin, His Majesty's most trusted general, and the leader of His Majesty's personal guard Qianniuwei. All the guards are under his command, and he can be said to be His Majesty's henchman.

Don't look at such a person who is usually inconspicuous, but when it comes to a critical moment, no one can afford to offend him.

The man's attitude was very polite, and he didn't want to offend anyone.

When the two of them left, Zhu Youxiao slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Chen Hong, and said, "What are you afraid of?" ”

When Chen Hong heard Zhu Youxiao's words, his whole person was excited, and he hurriedly said: "Emperor Qiqi, the slave is guilty. ”

After saying this, Chen Hong knelt directly on the ground, "The slave is afraid that the emperor will cure Luo Sigong's sin." ”

"I want to cure Luo Sigong's sin, what are you afraid of as a slave?" Zhu Youxiao continued to say slowly.

"Because the slave maid and Luo Sigong are colluded." Chen Hong hurriedly said: "The slave maid received a few gifts from Luo Sigong, as well as a courtyard in Jingshi, and instructed him on weekdays. ”

"But don't worry, the slave has never told him about the emperor. Sometimes the emperor wants to check something, and the slaves and maids will let them check it. ”

After saying this, Chen Hong touched the ground with his head and said loudly: "The slave maid is loyal to the emperor, but it is just a moment of greed. The slave maid was afraid that the emperor would cure Luo Sigong's crime and implicate the slave and maid. ”

"The slave and maid are extremely evil, and please ask the emperor to punish the crime!"

Zhu Youxiao sat up straight, glanced at Chen Hong, and said, "The crime is extremely evil. Alright, get up, look at your two hits, this little thing scares you. ”

"Alright, it's okay with you. Besides, when did I say that I was going to deal with Luo Sigong? ”

It's not that Zhu Youxiao is lying, even if he is ready to dismiss Luo Sigong's official position, he will not deal with Luo Sigong.

Because Luo Sigong has done things for himself, Luo Sigong has made efforts in Chen Kedao's things before.

Such a person cannot be killed or moved, and even if he is dismissed, he must be given a good death. This is not because of Luo Sigong himself, but for others to see.

The person who used the emperor as a knife always had a worry, that is, the birds were good and the bows were hidden, and the cunning rabbits were dead and the lackeys were cooked. They are all afraid that in the end they will end up with a very miserable end, and they will not be able to die again.

So set an example for them. Rest assured, it will let you land safely.

Luo Sigong is the first close minister of Zhu Youxiao who is about to be dismissed, this must be noted, this point must be learned from Emperor Chenghua.

Wang Zhi of Xichang back then, what a reputation and how much power was that?

It stands to reason that when such a knife is used up, won't it be dead?

But in fact, no, Wang Zhi finally got a good death, which can be said to be one of the few eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty who got a good death.

Those courtiers of the Chenghua Dynasty, the three old papier-mâché and the six clay sculptures, all got a good death.

Although these people have been infamy, they have also gained a lot of benefits. So even if they are scolded, they are willing to do things for Emperor Chenghua.

This is something you need to learn by yourself.

Did Emperor Chenghua have a good reputation in history?

The answer is no, it's all hacked.

What did Emperor Chenghua do?

After the change of the civil fort in the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that the national strength was weakened and precarious. It was during the reign of Emperor Chenghua that he cleaned up the mess for the Ming Dynasty, rehabilitated Yu Qian's unjust case, appointed virtuous ministers to govern the country, and carried out Chenghua ploughing on the Jianzhou Jurchens, killed Aixin Jueluo Dong Shan, and inflicted more heavy losses on the Tatar Department, recovering the Hetao area lost during the Ming Dynasty.

The Jingxiang exile has been a major problem that has plagued the central government since the Yuan Dynasty.

Jingxiangliu democracy should be concentrated in today's Yunxian area. The place is surrounded by ten thousand mountains, and is at the junction of Huguang, Shaanxi and Henan provinces, and is a three-regardless area in the Yuan and Ming dynasties.

Whenever there is a famine or war, nearly a million displaced people often gather in this area. The importance and resettlement of the displaced people during the Chenghua period was caused by the uprising of Liu Tong and Shilong.

After suppressing the peasant uprising, the government appointed Yuan Jie to pacify the displaced people, and set up the Yunyang Mansion to fix the form of household registration of the displaced people in the local area; The governor of Yunyang was also set up to solve this problem once and for all.

Throughout the life of Emperor Chenghua, he set up the West Factory because he did not believe in the East Factory and Jinyiwei. The reason is also very simple, at that time, Dongchang and Jinyiwei were all controlled by civilian officials.

If you want to regain power, you don't have a good reputation after all. Zhu Youxiao also knew this, so he wanted to learn the words of Emperor Chenghua.

This point is very critical, you can't kill Luo Sigong, and those who do things for themselves must have leeway.

Whether it is Dongchang, Jinyiwei, or the General Administration, the Cabinet, and the Six Ministries, they are all the same. At least not to cure their sins, but also to let them go home safely, so that those who come after them can go forward and succeed.

Otherwise, everyone knows that doing things for you will end up being death, so in this case, except for those outlaws, who will do things for you?

As for Chen Hong, it would be good to beat him up with this incident.

"Jinyiwei's affairs are still your watch, and it is better to make fewer mistakes than anything else."

Saying that, Zhu Youxiao glanced at Chen Hong deeply and said, "You don't have to worry about other things, Luo Sigong, you don't have to worry about him, I have my own arrangements for him." ”

"Yes, Emperor." Chen Hong hurriedly bowed down and agreed.

He really doesn't know what to say anymore, it's superfluous to say anything now, it's best to be obedient.

didn't wait too long, Qi Yuanfu and the two came back.

"How?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Qi Yuanfu and asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, archery and horse riding are all superior." Qi Yuanfu said

After listening to Qi Yuanfu's words, the face of the person standing beside him finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If you get a bad evaluation, not only will your identity as a warrior be suspected, but the process of the exam will also be questioned.

If you really want to be involved in any case of fraud in the field, then you will be in big trouble.

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Okay, then you can step back." ”

When Qi Yuanfu stepped aside, Zhu Youxiao's eyes fell on that person again, and said: "As a relative of the emperor, I am self-motivated, practice literature and martial arts, and contribute to the country, and I have done a very good job!" ”

After listening to Zhu Youxiao's praise, the man hurriedly knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Minister Xu Xianchun, thank Your Majesty for your praise!" ”
