Chapter 82: Liu Jin's thoughts
"Your Highness, everyone has arrived!" Liu Jin came behind Zhu Houzhao and bowed down and said.
Zhu Houzhao nodded and said with a smile: "Then let's go and see it!" Saying that, Zhu Houzhao turned around and walked out to the back.
When Zhu Houzhao walked into Xianyang Palace, all eight people inside knelt down and paid homage to Zhu Houzhao, which is called court ginseng. Zhu Houzhao walked straight to the main seat and sat down, his eyes swept over the eight people kneeling on the ground, and slowly said, "Excuse me!" ”
Only then did the eight men get up from the ground and stand respectfully with their hands bowed.
The eight people present were the main persons in charge of the eight bureaus in the twenty-four yamen, that is, the eunuchs with palm prints, and since the matter of the Salt and Iron Division was settled, Zhu Houzhao's eyes shifted to the eight bureaus. Zhu Youzhu also kept his promise and allocated the eighth bureau to Zhu Houzhao, which was the first time Zhu Houzhao had seen these people.
Eight bureaus, eight palm print eunuchs, these are the eunuchs that Zhu Houzhao has dealt with for a long time.
Although the palace is not as complicated as the court affairs, the struggle in the palace is not gentler than that from the outside. The fight between the inner servants is also very fierce, and the eunuch who can do the palm print of the eight rounds shows that this person is not simple, capable and has a background, and the latter may be more important.
But these are useless here in Zhu Houzhao, glancing at the eight palm print eunuchs of the eight bureaus, Zhu Houzhao said slowly: "Father handed over the eight bureaus to the hands of the palace, and you will be on an errand under the palace in the future. ”
"To be a person, start with the ledger in advance, let's see if this ledger is correct, and then talk about the rest."
The people below all lowered their heads and checked the accounts, and the first thing the prince did when he took over the Eighth Bureau was to check the accounts, which made their hearts all hang.
Zhu Houzhao didn't check the accounts for the sake of really checking the accounts, and there were fewer cats in the palace? Those who embezzle, take bribes, make false reports, and resell items in the palace can be said to be repeatedly prohibited. What's more, the Eighth Bureau is a very low status in the 24 Yamen, and they basically have no source of money, so they naturally have to make up their minds from this.
Life is nothing more than fame and fortune and women, if women are not suitable, then it is said that men and women are in love, but these eunuchs are congenitally lacking, don't think about the love between men and women. What kind of name do you talk about as a eunuch, what is left is nothing more than money and power, needless to say, the Eighth Bureau itself is not a good errand, especially the Huanyi Bureau.
Then all that is left is money, it is necessary for eunuchs to save money, otherwise how can they live when they are old and leave the palace? They don't even have a descendant.
Zhu Houzhao is well aware of these things, and he also understands that it is basically impossible to put an end to them, and Zhu Houzhao is not checking the accounts for this. There are two main purposes, one is to beat, so that these palm print eunuchs of the eight bureaus know that although they are young, they are not easy to fool, and by the way, they can find two people to stand up.
Another purpose is to do it for outsiders, when a new official takes office, he must always have political achievements, not to mention that Zhu Houzhao is the prince?
The prince is in charge of the eighth bureau, so naturally he can't be the same as before, otherwise what is it like? The eighth game is the stage for Zhu Houzhao to show himself to the outside world.
"Other things, I'm talking about it after checking the accounts!" Zhu Houzhao stood up and walked out, and after going out of the door, Zhu Houzhao said to Liu Jin: "Find a few clever little eunuchs to obey orders, and you keep an eye on these people, don't let them do anything behind their backs, especially pay attention not to let them destroy the account book." ”
Although I don't know how these people will choose, Zhu Houzhao knows that those who have ghosts will inevitably take action.
Zhu Houzhao took over the Eighth Bureau and checked the accounts, although it did not make a fuss in the palace, but it was basically the same, and even alarmed several big eunuchs of the celebrant eunuch. You must know that the eunuchs in the palace are all one, and they are connected everywhere, and Zhu Houzhao must have pulled out the radish and brought up the mud when he checked the accounts.
Another point is that these people have basically reached out to the Eight Bureaus, or received money from the Eight Bureaus.
For these, Zhu Houzhao doesn't pay attention to it at all, he pays attention to the account books, in Zhu Houzhao's words, everything has to wait for the account books to be checked. Of course, in addition to this matter, Zhu Houzhao also pays attention to other things, but this matter cannot be announced, and someone must be sent to investigate secretly.
"Liu Jin, where is the person sent by Gonggong Yang to serve?" Zhu Hou looked at Liu Jin and asked.
Since Zhu Houzhao sent Yang Lian back, Yang Peng, the factory manager of the East Factory, sent someone over again, saying that he was pleading. After all, his godson didn't do a good job and let the prince send him back, and it was also the right thing to send two people. But this is all a tacit understanding, and Yang Peng doesn't want to break off the connection with Zhu Houzhao.
"Back to Your Highness, it's here!" Liu Jin agreed, and then bowed down and said, Liu Jin and their lives have not been easy these days.
Although Yang Lian did not participate in their scheduling, Liu Jin and the others could see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of their own family valued that Yang Lian very much. There are only a few seats around His Royal Highness the Prince, and the competition was fierce enough, but now there is another one who grabs food, how can Liu Jin not worry.
But now that Yang Lian is gone, Liu Jin doesn't know what Yang Lian is doing, but she just knows that she was sent back to Dongchang.
Originally, Liu Jin and the others were quite happy, who would have thought that the East Factory would send someone over again, this is Liu Jin naturally dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, but it was certain that he was uncomfortable in his heart.
"I don't see him in this palace, you follow him to Dongchang, meet Yang Gonggong, let Dongchang send some people, touch the bottom of the eight bureaus outside, mainly to find someone to listen to how those craftsmen are doing." Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jin as he spoke: "This matter can't leak out of the news, understand?" ”
"Slave understands!" Liu Jin agreed, and then said, "Your Highness, don't worry, the slave and maid will definitely understand." ”
"Your Highness, the slave maid thinks that it is not good to always use Dongchang for these things, should we get some of our own people?" Liu Jin saw that Zhu Houzhao was in a good mood and couldn't help but put forward his own thoughts.
Liu Jin has been pondering this matter for several days, and since Yang Lian came to the East Palace, Liu Jin has been pondering this matter. In Liu Jin's opinion, Yang Lian's favor is nothing more than His Royal Highness wanting to let Dongchang do things. If you can do these things yourself, Your Highness will naturally not care about the people on the other side of the East Factory.
What's more, once you can do it yourself, then won't Your Highness rely on yourself more? Aren't you more spoiled? In the future, when His Royal Highness ascends the throne, will he be able to take the East Factory into his hands? It's all about planning ahead and staying ahead of others.
However, he had been beaten for a while ago, and Liu Jin didn't dare to bring it up rashly, but now he felt that the timing seemed to be very appropriate, so he naturally put forward this idea.
