In the first year of Chongzhen, Wei Zhongxian's case had not yet been decided, and the new Dongchang factory governor Cao Huachun took office, and the general trend was to arrest the officials of the DPRK and China related to the Wei Zhongxian case, which made the people of the capital panic.

At this time, there was news that Wang Chengen, the eunuch who was the writer of the celebrant eunuch, had set up the West Factory. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Big companion, do you say that Cao Huachun, a eunuch, can you rely on it? Let him be in charge of the East Factory, no problem" In the main hall, Chongzhen ate the dates that he didn't know where to offer, and asked Wang Chengen beside him.

"Your Majesty, Cao Huachun was also a member of the palace back then, and his loyalty is still no problem, your Majesty, don't worry, the slave will mention that the emperor is optimistic about him" After knowing that Cao Huachun was his team back then, it would not be a big problem. But it's better to be careful.

Early Chao Chongzhen sat quietly on the dragon chair, and hundreds of officials knelt on the ground and shouted long live.

"Your Majesty, the eunuch party is power-making, scourging the world, Wei Zhongxian's case is all in front of him, and now the emperor not only did not close the East Factory, but also set up the West Factory again, please think twice."

After a minister who Chongzhen didn't know chirped crookedly, he led the hundred officials behind him to kneel and shout.

"Are you saying that I'm a dumb king, and I'll let others mess with the government?" Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair and played with the wrench in his hand, these ministers, there are few people who can rely on them, and when I ease up, none of you can run away.

"The minister is afraid, the minister is guilty of capital crimes" The minister who had just spoken with the bean had stopped speaking with his head on the ground.

"I will order Dongchang to re-investigate the officials involved in the Wei case in the prison, and Dongchang, who can't find out the problem, will release them, and if you have any evidence to prove the innocence of others, you can also help, and if you have nothing else, you can retreat from the court" After speaking, Chongzhen was about to leave.

"Your Majesty, no, if the emperor doesn't take back the will of the East and West Second Factory, the ministers can't afford to kneel" Someone started to hula and knelt down

"Are you willing to kneel like this" After saying that, Chongzhen left without knowing anything, trying to force me to change my will, do you think I am still the original Chongzhen, a group of old things, not a few good goods.

"Big companion, let Cao Huachun, Luo Yangxing come to see me," Chongzhen in the study said

Half an hour later, Chongzhen's imperial study

"Luo Aiqing, in the future, the responsibility of Jinyiwei to supervise the hundred officials will be handed over to Dongchang to take over, and in the future, Jinyiwei's main responsibility is to find out the information of hostile forces for me, assassinate the enemy's senior generals, and I want all the information of the rebels from all over the country, the Nong Ming army and the Houjin Mongols outside the Guan, army movements, and changes in forces, do you understand what I mean?

"Weichen understands that he will share the worries and relieve the work for the emperor." "It's not enough to understand, if you don't do it, be careful of your head, go down" "Weichen retreated" After Luo Yangxing withdrew from the hall, Chongzhen turned around and said.

"Big companion, let the palace maids and eunuchs go out for me, and find someone to see if someone in the hall is close to kill me." A pair of soldiers surrounded the main hall, and Cao Huachun, who saw all this, knew that the emperor had something important to explain.

"The officials in the Caohua Chundong Factory Prison have released everything they can, but before they go out, I want you to take out all the silver in the hands of those officials, and some officials who are really honest and honest will be put in the edict prison, and I will be raised with good food and drink." When an empire collapses, there is no shortage of martyrs. Now Chongzhen is to find out those officials who are willing to die for the empire.

"The slave receives the order, and he must do things well for the emperor" Cao Huachun didn't dare to guarantee anything, but extorting money from those officials is what Dongchang is best at.

"After going back, send an order to the eunuchs in various places, in the future, if there is illegal salt and private mines in their respective jurisdictions, as long as it is smuggling, you let them participate in it for me, accounting for forty percent of the profits, if the other party dares to disagree, take out your means and means, and if someone bribes and buys, let them rest assured and boldly accept it, and they will eat, drink and have fun outside, and the money will be used by them. But if anyone takes my money with unclean hands and feet, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless. "The smuggled money is not blackened in the courtyard of the central government, anyway, it can't be taxed, it is better to let your own people participate in it, then the big head, this is much higher than the profit of taxes."

"The slave understands that if someone besieges the city with unclean hands and feet, he will besiege him" Cao Huachun excitedly assured Chongzhen, eat and take the card, is there still that eunuch in this palace Won't it, now there is the emperor's support, take forty percent of the profits, it is a small meaning.

"It's none of your business, you go down"

"The slave retreated" Cao Huachun retreated out of the hall.

"Big friend, you let the people in the West Factory take a good look at the two of them, if you don't understand the rules, just dispose of them and replace them with your own people."

"It's the emperor"

"Let the dark pile of Xichang go to the post station in Yinchuan to find a person named Li Zicheng, and find a way to get together with him, if Li Zicheng rebels with him that day, let the people of the dark pile follow him and rebel" Li Zicheng is a kind of person, killing is not clean, killing a Li Zicheng, as well as Zhang Zicheng, Wang Zicheng, it is better to control it in your own hands.

"Since the emperor knows that the other party will rebel, why don't you strike first and kill him," Wang Chengen suggested.

"Kill him, it's a pity, find more dark turns, gain his trust, help him become the leader of the rebels, at a critical time, you can let the secret pile influence his decision, and even empty his power, if you can't control it, you will secretly kill him" Li Zicheng is such a good knife, it's a pity to throw it like this, it's still very useful if it's well controlled.

"Companion, arrange for me to go out of the palace." It's been a while since I came to this world, and the whole world is my own, it's exciting to think about, and now Chongzhen wants to see his own Forbidden City.

Since ancient times, the capital is a prosperous place, Chongzhen, who is dressed as a child, walks around the capital under the protection of more than a dozen masters of the West Factory, and the group is followed by two hundred secret guards dressed in cloth, the streets and alleys are similar to the costume movies seen in the previous life, but his image is a bit like a second ancestor, nothing to take a few dog slaves around to bully the hawkers, nothing to tease the women of the good family. In fact, this kind of life is what I want, but unfortunately I am the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, others can escape, you can surrender, you can't hide, if you don't want to be humiliated by yourself and your Ming in the future, then you can't rest, you can't play around unscrupulously like now.

Chongzhen, who slipped to the city gate, looked at a few soldiers who were standing and not sitting in each other's place, and his originally good mood disappeared in an instant. The soldiers in the land of Jingshi are like this, which shows what the entire army of the Ming Dynasty is already like, which also strengthens his determination to reorganize the Ming Dynasty.

"Back to the palace, the person I asked Jinyiwei to find last time didn't go to the capital," Chongzhen said with a cloudy face.

"The emperor has arrived" Wang Chengen, who followed him.

Shang Shufang Chongzhen looked at the news from Dongchang, last time Chongzhen instructed Cao Huachun to lead the more than 100 civil and military officials arrested in Dongchang, most of them were released from prison after paying ransom, and they paid more than 2 million taels of silver, which is about to catch up with the income of the Ming treasury for a year. It's not that Daming has no money, it's that Daming's money is in the hands of corrupt officials and giant businessmen.

"Cao Huachun, where did you copy Wei Zhongxian's house, how many silver taels did you copy?"

"Back to the emperor, a total of 27 million taels of silver, as well as title deeds, jewelry, and antiques, these values should also be worth thousands of taels of silver."

Chongzhen, who was drinking tea, squirted out a sip of tea, and his first feeling was that he was developed, and he had so much money, more money than me, the emperor.

"Ome, how much silver do I have in my inner treasury?"

"The emperor still has more than three million taels of silver." Wang Chengen, who was standing aside, returned.

"Bring all the money to me to my inner treasury, and in the future, all the money collected by the eunuchs in various places will also be transported to my inner treasury." This money can only be put in the underwear to make yourself feel at ease, put it in the treasury, and within a few days let the group of officials in the court be corrupt.

Think about those high-ranking officials and bigwigs of the Donglin Party, that is not tens of millions of family assets, but 10,000 acres of fertile land. These are all money, the eunuchs of Dongchang with the support of the emperor, under the leadership of Cao Huachun, the famous eunuch leader in history, can boldly embezzle and accept bribes, extort and smuggle to eat and take cards, there is no reason for me to be the emperor, not as good as those ministers, as for these eunuchs to be corrupt, I can directly reimburse them for eating, drinking and playing, if they are still disobedient, this is simpler, just drag them out and kill them, and a group of palace maids and eunuchs will not die in the palace that year.

"In the future, these antiques, calligraphy and paintings, pearls and treasures will be exchanged for silver for me, you go back and tell those who do things, jewelry and antiques everyone to pick one, I will not let the East Factory do things for me, as long as I can do things well, collect some bribes, take some kickbacks or something, I can treat it as if I didn't see it." If I didn't do a good job, then wait to be dragged out and killed, I killed a few eunuchs, I don't think anyone would dare to gossip. ”

"Wei Zhongxian, for the sake of the amount of silver he left for me, give him a decent way to die, let's do this in the West Factory." Chongzhen on the dragon chair said absent-mindedly, I don't know where the money went after Chongzhen killed Wei Zhongxian in the previous life, it is estimated that Chongzhen in the previous life was fooled by the Donglin Party. Naturally, the officials will not remind the emperor where the money has gone, and they will definitely say that we have cleaned up the evil eunuchs, and the prosperity of the empire is just around the corner. Is it really that important what silver is not silver? If you keep your eyes on the silver, it will ruin your image.

Because, let the people of the world see that you cleaned up Wei Zhongxian in order to promote righteousness? Or is it to rob the house and steal the silver? Did you clean up Wei Zhongxian to revitalize the empire? Or is it to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune?

When the emperor thought about it, it was the same thing. Confucius once taught people that a gentleman is a righteous man, and a villain is a profit.

Because, the emperor did not steal silver from the officials' homes. Therefore, the emperor's attack on the eunuchs has become an act on behalf of justice. If the emperor had copied silver from officials' homes, history would have been rewritten.

At that time, no matter whether the Donglin Party is a Donglin Party or not, and whether the Eunuch Party is a Eunuch Party or not, they will all unite together in the spirit of simple class friendship. All in all, although the eunuchs led by Wei Zhongxian are not servants of the people who serve the people wholeheartedly, they are not corrupt officials. All in all, Wei Zhongxian and the eunuchs are just a group of dogs of Zhu Youxiao. A thousand words are nothing more than a sentence to say, and the imperial government's killing of Wei Zhongxian and others is an extremely cruel and mean act. If an official loses power, he will kill him, and if he is dismissed, he will be dismissed, but he will raid his home on a large scale, is this what people do?

In any case, the bureaucracy could not collectively shout that the emperor's behavior of wantonly copying officials' homes was a reasonable and legal act, and it was also an act that should be advocated and promoted. Because, this kind of behavior is reasonable and legal, and everyone is crying and shouting to be an official, what is the picture?

Judging from this situation, my reputation in history is probably not good.
