Chapter Twenty-Nine: Lian Po is old, can he still eat?
Luo Sigong and Zhu Youzhen, an old man and a young man, because they had the same feelings for entering the dynasty, they chatted from the afternoon until late at night.
It wasn't until the beginning of the hour that Zhu Youzhen, who was still excited, finally asked the key question.
"Taifu, what do you think is the duty of Jinyiwei?"
Luo Sigong's heart tightened, and he said secretly: This day has finally arrived.
"Your Majesty, Taizu set up the Gongwei Division at the beginning, and then changed it to the Governor's Mansion of the Pro-Army, and held the honor guard and guard of the Son of Heaven, and after the fifteenth year of Hongwu, he changed the Captain's Mansion of the Pro-Army to the Jinyi Guard, and the beginning of this Jinyi Guard."
"Taizu set up the Jinyi Guard, and wanted to control the lawless ministers, so he ordered the Jinyi Guard to have the power of surveillance, spying, arrest, and interrogation, and set up a pacification department to facilitate its power."
"The ministers privately think that the brocade guard is the eye of the Son of Heaven, the ear of the Son of Heaven, and the hand of the Son of Heaven."
Speaking of this, Luo Sigong raised his eyes slightly and looked at Zhu Youzhen, but seeing Zhu Youzhen bowing slightly, Luo Sigong knew that Zhu Youzhen was in his heart, and then he became bolder.
"But after the Korean Renchen Rebellion and the fight against the Northern Captives, the ministers privately thought that Jinyiwei could still lead the enemy to infiltrate and spy behind the enemy."
"Haha, what Taifu said is extremely true, and I also want to add four more, one is assassination, the second is to divide and rebel, the third is sabotage, and the fourth is subversion."
In Zhu Youzhen's memory, in later generations, all countries have established such national security departments, such as the CIA and the FBI, which play an extremely important role at critical moments.
Zhu Youzhen intended to develop Jinyiwei into a secret organization that punishes traitors who collaborate with the enemy and subverts the regimes of other countries externally.
Of course, the work of the monitoring minister has to be done by Jinyiwei, and it is not until the establishment of the metropolitan procuratorate system in the modern sense that he will consider the issue of changing shifts.
Seeing that Luo Sigong was a little puzzled, Zhu Youzhen popularized the content of the espionage war in modern countries to Luo Sigong again.
Listening to it, Luo Sigong was secretly frightened and addicted.
Especially when Zhu Youzhen said that if he did not send a single soldier in the future, he would be able to subvert the regime of a small country with Jinyiwei, Luo Sigong's intuitive Zhu Youzhen was really a man of heaven.
This kind of thinking is really the first person to change the Jinyi Guard and create the foundation of the Jinyi Guard in more than 200 years since Taizu set up the Jinyi Guard.
"Your Majesty is really a man of God, and the ministers are out of reach."
Listening to the complete set of modern espionage warfare, Luo Sigong felt that the forty years of Jinyi Guard commander he was proud of had been in vain.
Then he threw himself to the ground and knelt on the ground.
Seeing this, Zhu Youzhen did not step forward to help him up, but added another fire to Luo Sigong.
"Luo Qing listens to the order."
When Luo Sigong heard this, he hurriedly stood and knelt down.
"The former commander of the Jinyi Guard, the crown prince Luo Sigong, is loyal to the country, known as a virtuous name, and I am very comforted.
"Your Majesty, the old minister obeys the order."
When Luo Sigong, who was over sixty years old, dreamed back at midnight, it was not that he didn't think about the day of recovery, but most of them had dreams.
At this time, the dream came true, and Luo Sigong was already in tears, trembling all over.
"Luo Qingping, my safety in the future depends on you."
After Luo Sigong's mood calmed down a little, Zhu Youzhen helped Luo Sigong up and encouraged.
"Your Majesty, the life of the old minister will be Your Majesty's in the future."
Luo Sigong was born in a martial arts, and all he could express at this time was to swear to die to repay the king.
At this time, the sky was slightly bright, the palace gate had been opened lightly, and looking at Luo Sigong, who had been in high spirits all night, Zhu Youzhen gave the old man a special waist to drive out of the palace.
Before leaving, Zhu Youzhen suddenly shouted again.
"Taifu, go back and tell that kid Luo Yangxing, when I set foot in the Wa Kingdom, I hope to see him."
Luo Sigong turned his head when he heard this, but saw Zhu Youzhen standing under the rising sun, with a smile on his face with perseverance and expectation.
Luo Sigong's old face turned red, and he was moved again, and he was about to give thanks, but he saw Zhu Youzhen waving his hand at him, signaling that he didn't have to be formal.
'Your Majesty, this is to ensure that your descendants will enjoy grace forever. ’
The old man's eyes were slightly red, and tears flowed down his wrinkled cheeks.
Out of the Huangji Gate, at this time, it happened that the minister entered the palace and went to court, and in full view of everyone, Luo Sigong stood on his waist with a solemn face.
The ministers couldn't help but secretly slander:
'Hey, I thought that I would be able to live a chic life for two days after I overthrew a field Ergeng, but looking at His Majesty's attitude, I am afraid that the status of Jinyiwei will become more and more prominent in the future, alas, the tail still has to be clamped. ’
Facing Luo Sigong's expressionless old face, the ministers all looked like mourners, and under the supervision of the imperial history, Xu Bu went to the Qianqing Palace.
--------
After recovering Luo Sigong, the recovery work of the former courtiers was put on Zhu Youzhen's desk.
Compared with Luo Sigong, the recovery this time is much more complicated.
The commander of the Jinyi Guard is a close minister of the Son of Heaven and a slave of the emperor, so Zhu Youzhen can naturally make a decision.
However, the person Zhu Youzhen wants to use today is a cabinet scholar, and the procedure requires the cabinet and the six ministries and nine secretaries to conduct court promotions.
Of course, Zhu Youzhen can also directly issue a decree to enter the cabinet, but after more than 200 years of continuous struggle between scholars and imperial power, scholars regard the entry of the imperial decree as a shame, and even if they enter the cabinet, they will be looked down upon.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, only Zhang Xuan and Xu Youzhen were the only people who entered the cabinet.
And to this day, these two people are often ridiculed by literati writing books.
Therefore, according to Zhu Youzhen's understanding of the two people, it is estimated that people will not agree to enter the cabinet, and they can't afford to lose that person.
Most of them would rather tease their grandson at home than come out to be embarrassed.
Zhu Youzhen also counted on the two of them to be the pasters of the Ming Dynasty, so he didn't want to mess up, so he had to nominate them first and then hand them over to the cabinet for promotion according to the usual practice.
And for the sake of the stability of the court situation, Zhu Youzhen directly said to Huang Liji:
"As long as these two people enter the cabinet, I will not move the position of the first assistant of your cabinet, of course, if these two people can't be pushed by the court, you Huang Liji will go home directly." ’
When Huang Liji heard this, he happily agreed, and immediately began to operate for the two of them to enter the cabinet.
As everyone knows, after the two of them enter the cabinet, Zhu Youzhen will start to reorganize the cabinet, weaken the rights of the cabinet chief assistant, and reorganize the cabinet into a flat organization, so as to be more suitable for his own control.
Of course, the fictitious title of the first assistant of the cabinet, Zhu Youzhen will still be reserved for Huang Liji.
In the future, between the ministers of the cabinet and the matter of thin mud, Huang Liji is the most suitable candidate.
So, after the news of the admission of the two into the cabinet was clearly released, the cabinet and the six ministries and nine secretaries became noisy.
At the same time, two teams of Jinyi guard sergeants also hurried out of the capital, one team went out of the capital to Baoding Mansion in the north, and the other team went out of the north to Shanxi to set up political envoys.
At the same time, in Suzhou Mansion in Nanzhili, the circulation of an article caused an uproar in the court.
