Inspector Imperial History, official name. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info is referred to as "patrol". Officers who are temporarily assigned to inspect the place. In all dynasties, there was a system of supervising the imperial history and patrolling according to the roads, with the purpose of investigating lawlessness and petitioning the people. In the Ming Dynasty, the Son of Heaven was sent to patrol the place as a fixed system, which was called patrolling.

Although the inspectors of the imperial history are generally seven-rank officials, their power is enough to make the governor look sideways. Zha Jizuo is a person, and he has such great power when he first enters the officialdom, how can he not be excited?

"The general is also clear that there are many large households in Suzhou, and there are many famous people like carp crossing the river. In order for Mr. Yi Huang to collect money and grain smoothly, the official gave Mr. Zha another authority. Ma Shiying was also afraid that Jiangnan Shilin would not die fast enough, so he twisted his beard and slowly said a few words that made Zha Jizuo feel shocked when he heard it.

"Before Mr. took office, the official ordered the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, and Nanzhili Xuezheng to jointly write a document for Mr. and sent him hundreds of blank documents, depriving him of the fame of a certain person in a certain place, and depriving him of his status. No matter how strong he is, he has no fame, a commoner, and when he sees Li Zheng Baojia, he also wants to call himself a master, how can he dare to pretend to be in front of Mr.? ”

Ma Shiying's hand is not ruthless, aren't you a local culture at its peak? As long as you dare to resist the new money and grain system, then, Zha Jizuo will immediately post a list and cancel your fame. You have become a white man who can come to the door and blackmail any gray-clothed miscellaneous person. The so-called countering evil with evil.

"Since Ma Xiang is like this, then, a certain family also has a little heart." Li Shouhan smiled on his face, but in Ruan Dacheng's opinion, he was even more fierce than Li Kui in "Black Whirlwind Double Dedication" and "Song Gongming's Nine Palace Bagua Array".

"Huabao, you go down and prepare, and hand over the first battalion of your subordinates to the competent people to take to Suzhou, and be mobilized by Lord Cha. In case someone instigates the people to make trouble and endanger the place in order to resist money and food. ”

This is to let Zha Jizuo hold the pen that deprives him of his fame in one hand and the handle of the knife that cuts off his head in the other. Those Guangxi wolf soldiers who did not speak well in the official language of Nanzhili would not have anything to do with the Suzhou gentry in Wu Yue anyway, so they naturally only listened to the words of the chief. If the chief asks us to cut people, we will cut people; The chief asked us to raid the house, and we will raid the house!

Zha Jizuo was naturally very grateful, and he almost said something like swearing allegiance to the general. With this battalion of soldiers and horses in hand, and the documents on record to deprive the meritorious name, there will definitely be no worries about any ****** or other characters coming out to incite the people to rise up against taxes.

However, Li Huabao, who commanded the wolf soldiers in Guangxi, stood still and did not move. "Huh? Huabao, what, are you still reluctant to give up your soldiers and horses? Li Shouhan was a little angry.

"Nope. Father, there is still a military matter that has not been explained to the father and the first assistant, and he does not dare to leave without permission. ”

"Speak!"

"At present, the eldest brother on the Shandong border ordered a speedboat to deliver an urgent report. Since Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses fought with Wu Sangui and Dolgon in Shanhaiguan and Yongping, the hearts of the people in Beijing have fluctuated. In particular, after Li Zicheng withdrew from Beijing and Dolgon stole the capital, a large number of officials took advantage of the chaos to go south. Along the canal to Shandong. claimed to be preparing to go to Nanjing to meet the Son of Heaven. The eldest brother sent a letter asking for instructions, whether to let these people enter the country? ”

Li Huayu's submission undoubtedly sent a thick and big beating stick to Li Shouhan and Ma Shiying, who were fighting with the gentlemen of Donglin. The two of them almost replied with a sinister smile: "Put!" How not to put it!? ”

They also know about the situation in the capital, as many as 20 noble ministers and ministers were martyred, and less than 2,000 officials were embarrassed to surrender to thieves.

However, if you want to play your own little abacus, we also have to use you as abacus beads to play with!

"Give your eldest brother the following, just say that we have discussed it with Lord Shoufuma. All the officials of the Beijing division could enter Shandong, along Shandong to Nanzhili, and across the Yangtze River to Nanjing. However, since they came from Li Zicheng's army, it is necessary to find out what they have done during this time. lest you get caught up in the spies! For those who have clear evidence of betraying the master and surrendering to thieves, they will be arrested immediately on the day they arrive in Shandong! Send to Nanjing for interrogation! ”

This hand is undoubtedly a killer feature for Nanjing City, which is currently in full swing.

However, who will do this work that offends Donglin? Li Shouhan rolled his eyes and fixed his gaze on Ruan Dacheng.

"Mr. Yuanhai, a certain family is a rough man, and he can't say so many twists and turns. I only know that the eldest husband is happy to be revenge. The Donglin rats have not contributed to the country's social work, but they are good at Weifu. For example, Hou Sui, Zhou Zhong and others failed to live up to the grace of God and surrendered to thieves and treason. If this generation is still standing in the imperial court, wouldn't it make the first emperor cry under the nine springs? A certain family is interested in asking Mr. to serve as the right deputy capital of the imperial history, and he will be fully responsible for the review, screening, arrest, and punishment of the treason of the Beijing master! ”

For Ruan Dacheng, who has been repeatedly humiliated by the so-called Fourth Prince of the Restoration Society, Li Shouhan seems to be the Hou Sui mentioned inadvertently, but it is a name that makes him gnash his teeth countless times.

This person has some friendship with him, but after his family soared, he didn't miss the old feelings at all. raised a son with a bit of a false name, and his nostrils were facing the sky, and he didn't take his uncle in his eyes at all.

However, there is always a time for the trapped dragon to go to heaven. Now he is entrusted with a heavy responsibility by General Meng and Lord Shoufu. How can you let go of this opportunity to contribute to the country and give yourself the opportunity to export your evil anger by the way?

Almost without hesitation, Ruan Dacheng made his own choice, "The general and the first assistant are so wrongly in love, how can there be any reason to excuse themselves from handing over such things to the subordinates for the traitors of the country and punishing traitors for the country?" ”

Ma Shiying glanced at Ruan Dacheng, Li Shouhan's proposal to concentrate the powers of review, screening, arrest, and legal action in Ruan Dacheng, the right deputy capital of the imperial history, can be said to have the power of life and death of countless people in his hands.

"General, this matter is very important, how can Yuanhai's talent for writing be able to handle it?"

"Mr. Yuanhai has such an accurate grasp of people's hearts and character, what is the reason for just trying cases? Hua Bao, you have selected some competent men from the Nanjing garrison and sent them to Mr. Yuanhai for dispatch. ”

If you want someone else to kill, you naturally have to give a quick knife. Li Shouhan did this very beautifully.

However, although the right deputy of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, although it is only the third grade, it is not something that Li Shouhan and Ma Shiying, two powerful ministers, can privately teach each other. It is necessary to discuss it at the court meeting and ask the emperor for approval.

Sure enough, at the court meeting, Ma Shiying's invitation to raise Ruan Dacheng to serve as the right deputy of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was fiercely opposed by Jiang Yueguang and others.

The general authority of the imperial history of the capital is to "correct the impeachment of the hundred divisions, identify the wrongs, supervise the various provinces, and be the division of the ears and eyes of the Son of Heaven". "All ministers who are treacherous and evil, villains who form the party, and who are powerful and disruptive will be impeached"; "All officials who are obscene, corrupt, corrupt, and bad officials and reporters will be impeached"; "Those who are not academically correct, who write and state their words into chaos and become constitutional, and who want to use them, will be impeached." "In case of Hajj, investigation, and dethronement of the same minister's department." "The heavy prisoners of the big prison will be in the outer court, together with the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Chen Pingzhi." 'This is the judicial power; "They serve the hinterland, follow the outside, and act in their own way." He has the power to correct bullets, supervise the test, and various power tasks temporarily assigned by the emperor.

For example, Ruan Dacheng, the right deputy of the imperial history, is in charge of the review, screening, arrest, and legal affairs of officials who go south from Beijing, which is theoretically the affairs authorized by the emperor to carry out temporarily.

However, Jiang Yueguang, Wang Duo, Liu Zongzhou, and others, from their different angles, stood up to oppose them one after another, and the reason for their opposition was that "Ruan Dacheng is listed in the reverse case, and Shilin Qingliu is ashamed to be with him." If this person is introduced into the court as an official, the ministers are afraid that above the court, the righteous man and the gentleman will be empty. ”

"Good, good! That's a good point. After listening to the righteous and stern words of several adults, Li Shouhan pinned the wat board in his hand to the jade belt and applauded them. Sure enough, it was a generous statement! ”

Zhou Bi and Qian Qianyi, who were hiding in the crowd, couldn't help but flicker in their hearts, not knowing what bad water this general who did not play cards according to the rules was holding back, and I didn't know where he gave his colleagues a hard time.

"Your Majesty," Li Shouhan saluted Emperor Hongguang on the throne: "The courtiers are on an errand for the Ming Dynasty in Shandong, and they have asked people to inquire about the news in Beijing." A few wonderful texts have been transcribed here, all of which are very perverse texts. If Your Majesty allows it, the ministers will ask someone to go to the palace to read one or two for Your Majesty and all the adults, so that they may have the same hatred for the enemy. ”

Li Shouhan's words, Hongguang naturally approve. He could also see that this general was willing to assist him in the Ming Dynasty, and for such a person, he naturally wanted to use his power to contain the civilian forces.

The wonderful words that Li Shouhan said were the "Persuasion Table" and "Jiangnan Policy" presented by Zhou Zhong for Li Zicheng that day, and when they heard the passage of "**** bestows the head, all surnames return to the heart", the civil and military ministers present could no longer hold back.

"Your Majesty! Don't read it! Begging Your Majesty to send troops as soon as possible and go north to crusade against the traitors! ”

"Exactly! You don't have to wait for him to go down to the south of the Yangtze River, the ministers are willing to go north and fight to the death! ”

There was a lot of noise in the Wuying Palace.

Looking at the top of the hall, the crowd was turbulent, Li Shouhan sneered, "Your Majesty, my lordship, do you know who is the hand of such a wonderful pen?" ”

"It must have been the work of the fatherless and kingless thief! Such a rebellious text should be punished by the Nine Clans! ”

"That's right! Even if His Majesty is lenient and does not kill him, he will kill all the adult men in his family, and send the female dependents to the court as slaves! ”

"Guys, is that really the case?" Li Shouhan had a somewhat unbearable expression, but Ma Shiying, who was already familiar with him, felt that the look on General Li's face was completely like a cat playing with mice.

"General, if you are so unwilling to use heavy hands to hoe traitors for the country, can you say that you have anything to do with such a rebellious thief who has no father and no king?" Zhou Bi stood in the crowd and sneered and fired a cold arrow at Li Shouhan. Suddenly, several people around him quietly gave him a thumbs up. You can say that again!

"Since Lord Zhou is anxious to punish the author of this article, it is natural that General Ben can't stop it. Come, bring the witnesses to the temple! ”

In full view of everyone, the witness who was brought up to the temple was like a huge searchlight of tens of thousands of watts, so that many people could not open their eyes.

Many of the people present knew him. It was Xu Shilin, a man from Zhou Biaomen who was frantically shouting to copy the authors of "Persuasion Table" and "Xia Jiangnan Policy".

"Xu Shilin, in front of His Majesty, you just have to tell the truth. Who wrote these texts you brought? Rest assured, just say it. In front of Your Majesty, there are Shousuke-sama and General Ben to make decisions for you. Forgive the traitors in the court, and they don't dare to do anything to you. ”

"That's right! This is the time to promote the righteousness of heaven and earth! ”

"Xu Shilin, the Son of Heaven, is at this time. Just be bold! ”

However, the few words that Xu Shilin gently spit out were like a heavy artillery salvo that made the group of ministers who couldn't stop shouting close their mouths and lower their eyes.

"Hanlin Academy, Zhou Zhong. The younger brother of my teacher, Zhou Bi. ”

Ma Shiying sneered twice, and saluted to the civil and military colleagues in the hall, "My lord, Zhou Zhong, this person, as a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, should be a reasonable person who reads well. However, he first persuaded the rebellion to advance, and then persuaded the rebellion to settle the south of the Yangtze River early; Hearing that it tasted the horse in front of the first emperor Zi Palace, it was outrageous. His uncle Ying Qiu and Wei Zhongxian Eagle Dog, now Zhong Fu is a thief and loyal minister; The owl is extracted in one door, and the anti-party bell is in two generations: Yijia Chi clan punishment. His brother Quan, who is still in the toilet class; From the brother, it is like the signature of Yin Qing. Today, from the public discussion of the ranking adults, it is advisable to sit down and use the rebel party. ”

Li Shouhan and Ma Shiying's hands are really ruthless. The ministers in the palace had the heart to defend Zhou Bi, but what they just said was so impassioned and anxious, if they changed their words to intercede for Zhou Bi, they really couldn't afford to lose their face. Jiang Yueguang, Wang Duo, Qian Qianyi, Zhao Zhilong and others had the intention to defend Zhou Bi, but they were speechless for a while, and they couldn't think of how to speak. It is also you who say that you are the ones who are all over the house, if you come out to plead for Zhou Bi again, it is really difficult to speak. I could only watch as the captains of the Jinyi Guard rushed up like wolves and tigers, beat Zhou Bi off the black yarn, stripped off his robe, and dragged him out of the hall.

Knowing that this group of scholars who have been favored by the imperial court for many years are so frustrated, their younger brother was martyred on the front foot, and the group of goods on the back foot dressed up to welcome the new king, and called his younger brother a one-man thief, even if the relationship between Zhu Yousong and Zhu Youzhen is not good, it is impossible to write two Zhu characters in one stroke. What's more, there is also the sentence that the rabbit dies and the fox hurts the sad thing! Maybe one day I'll die, and you'll call me the Lord of the Dead!

(Zhu Yousong didn't think wrong about this at all.) Chongzhen on the front foot was called a one-man thief by Zhou Zhong, and Hongguang on the back foot was called the son of shrimp and clam by Donglin. In short, it's all kinds of smears. Although Zhu Yousong did not make a difference like his ancestors and expanded his territory, if he changed the general environment, he was also a competent king. It will definitely not be the lustful and lascivious lord of Donglin's pen. In Qian Haiyue's "History of the Southern Ming Dynasty", he commented on him: "Therefore, there are objective people in the early government. Temperamental, Ma and Ruan wanted to start a prison with the "Three Dynasties Classics", but they were repeatedly refused. Looking at his edict to understand Liangyu, appoint Jixian, and deal with it tactfully; The rejection of the silver atonement proposal, and the prohibition of military ministers from making profits, are not the ratio of martial arts and Xi to the faint and deaf. Gu Shao reads, Zhang Juan failed to cut in person, as soon as the political affairs come out of Shiying, he does not control the system, he sits on the fox and the tiger eats, roars and roars, and the discipline is reversed. and Dacheng got the will, everyone is going to the court, Luo Gang is high, and the party is in trouble. Shangyan Ju Shengong, suddenly said that Shiying misunderstood me, and Tai'a fell aside, there was nothing to do, so he drank fire wine every day, and the relatives and officials were happy, and they died to touch the barbarian dispute, and clear the profits. At the time of the first period, the column was missing. Therefore, although the bereavement is enough to feel the remnants, the death cannot protect the community. ”）

"Ma Aiqing, the purpose. The matter that Fang Cai asked for was ordered to be appointed as the right deputy capital of the imperial history and awarded the cabinet bachelor. He is in charge of review, arrest, and screening, and prosecutes matters that attach rebels and thieves. You don't have to go through Dali Temple or the Inspectorate, you can just go directly to me. All things that are attached to the rebellious thieves and ministers, the Jinyi Guard, and the three law divisions are subject to their control. Tie Qing's face was blue, Zhu Yousong finished saying what he was thinking in one breath, and turned his face to Li Shouhan again.

"General, allocate a piece of soldiers and horses to use with Deputy General Ruan. I fear that he doesn't have any right-hand men, and someone will take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. ”

With soldiers and horses in his hands, the emperor's special will, and the power to control the three legal divisions such as Jinyiwei, Dali Temple, and the Inspectorate, Ruan Dacheng suddenly went from being a contemptuous and ridiculous figure of the nobles and nobles in Nanjing City, who was not much stronger than advocating excellent dramas, and suddenly became an important minister with countless powers of life and death in his hands.

Ruan Dacheng, who was the marquis outside the hall early, changed into a three-rank official robe, which made people look a little like a monkey, but no one dared to underestimate this person at this time. Everyone is inextricably linked with the officials in Beijing, colleagues, the same year, the same family, the same village, or the same friends of the same society. God knows if it will be connected to himself?

"Your Majesty, there was a so-called reverse case in the previous dynasty, and today we will review and punish the rebellious thief ministers, and the minister thinks that since Li Chuang has usurped the title of Da Shun, this case can be called a 'Shun case'. All those who did not die when Li broke into the Beijing Division, never escaped from the Beijing Division, went out to welcome Li Chuang in a well-dressed robe, and went to the Chengtian Gate to bow down to see the people who broke into the rebellion and sought officials, the family members, and the people related to them were all included in the trial of this case. ”

Facing Emperor Hongguang's question, Ruan Dacheng, who had already made up his mind, slid his fingers over his beautiful beard and revealed his inner thoughts.

"Shun case?" Hongguang chewed on the meaning of these two words, but there was no doubt.

"All on trial?"

"Exactly. However, there are a few people who have already been conclusively evidenced, and I ask Your Majesty to issue a decree to deal with them. ”

The first batch of rebellious thieves thrown out by Ruan Dacheng had already made the eyelids of the Donglin gentlemen jump vigorously.

"Former Governor Hou Sui, appointed as a puppet soldier government squire after the rebellion, Shi Kecheng, appointed as the puppet Song Dynasty governor Shi ,。。。。。 after the rebellion" A series of names were pronounced, and the ministers couldn't help but feel a burst of urgency.

If the charges of Zhou Zhong and Zhou Bi brothers still do not involve them for a while, at most it is because Zhou Bi was a general of the "Lixian faction" who supported King Lu, and naturally he was the sworn enemy of the "Liqin faction" and the sworn enemy in the eyes of Emperor Hongguang, so they were convicted together. However, these names are all familiar to the adults in the court.

"This generation can be investigated and dealt with by the minister. However, there is another person who has a respected status, and it must be handled by a special order of His Majesty. ”

"Who?" Emperor Hongguang suddenly became interested, could it be that which prince secretly had contact with Li Zicheng in private?

"It is the Qufu Yan Holy Father's Mansion, and the current generation of Yan Sheng Gong Kong Yinzhi. When Li Zicheng stole Shenjing, he also had the audacity to persuade him. Not only did the above table persuade to advance, but also ordered Kong Zhenkan, the magistrate of Qufu Shizhi County, to enshrine the dragon throne of Emperor Yongchang of Dashun State in the temples and schools in Qufu City. And send someone to Beijing to accept the letter! His Majesty issued a decree to order Shandong Yousi to lock Kong Yinzhi and take Nanjing to ask for guilt! ”

Ruan Dacheng's move frightened everyone present. This Ruan beard should be renamed Ruan Maniac! Who is the Holy Father? On weekdays, if you close the door in Qufu, you are the emperor of the soil, and it is even more of a master of all ages! You actually want to lock him up and ask him for sin, aren't you openly hostile to the people who read all over the world?

The matter is big, even Emperor Hongguang does not dare to call the shots, so he just waved his hand and signaled to retreat. (To be continued.) )
