On May 2, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen (1644 AD), Gao Junshan convened a military meeting of generals above the first and second regiments in Wuyingdian, and issued the No. 1 order of the Military and Political Yuan in the name of the Military and Political Yuan:

ordered the First Army to go south to Zhuozhou and Baoding to sweep away the remnants of the Ming court; The Second Army marched to Shanhaiguan, attacked Wu Sangui, and captured Wu Shangui alive.

On May 3, Gao Junshan promulgated the No. 1 Order of the Civil Affairs Yuan in the Qianqing Palace:

First, all prison sentences that have not been discovered before 1 May, whether inside or outside Beijing, or that have been corrected but have not been concluded, will be spared. At the same time, it is forbidden to sue against the law;

Second, in addition to the regular endowment, all additional assignments in the Ming court were abolished, such as liao salary, expropriation, training salary, and summoning rice beans, all of which were exempted, and at the same time, officials were prohibited from obscuring and secretly recruiting secret factions;

Third, if corrupt officials and corrupt officials are found to have taken bribes, they will be severely punished;

Fourthly, all those who serve to submit to the people and occupy the city to compete with the people for profit have been promptly corrected;

Fifth, all those who are able to support themselves in the newly attached army and civilians are to settle down in their own business, and they are not allowed to be made into slavery.

After the promulgation of the decree, Gao Junshan led the first assistant Bailisha, the second assistant Liu Hongru, and the logistics department Shangshu Fang Tingjian to the Dongbianmen Caoyun Wharf to welcome the first batch of 10 million stone grain into Beijing, with this 10 million stone grain, it is enough to stabilize the price of rice in the capital and ensure the stable life of 1.5 million people in the capital.

After Gao Junshan witnessed this batch of grain being transported into the city, he returned to the Wenhua Hall with confidence.

There is Wenhua Gate in front of Wenhua Palace, there is the main worship hall in the back, there is a matching hall in the east and west, and there is a heart hall on the east side.

Gao Junshan took the heart hall as his study, there is a well in the center of the heart hall, when he was thirsty, he took his own hands to draw water by the well to drink, this water is very sweet.

The eunuchs in the imperial city, Gao Junshan, sent them away, as a modern person, it is impossible to reuse these eunuchs, not only the eunuchs, but also the palace maid Gao Junshan in the imperial city did not leave any of them, all of them were handed over to the Military and Political Yuan to deal with, the Military and Political Yuan is in charge of the troops, and there are many generals who are staring at these palace maids, how did the Military and Political Yuan send these palace maids, Gao Junshan is too lazy to care.

Without the eunuchs, Gao Junshan's domestic servants and maids are still on their way to Beijing, and Gao Junshan's internal affairs will have to work hard for his guard Sun Kewang.

Gao Junshan set up an imperial city organization, called the Gong Wei Division, whose responsibilities are equivalent to the Jinyi Guard, he merged the detective team and the detective team into the Gong Wei Division, and the Gong Wei Division set up the Royal Guard Office and the Detective Bureau.

This Gong Wei Division is not under the jurisdiction of the Military and Political Yuan, but under the Civil Affairs Yuan, and the boss of the Civil Affairs Yuan is Liu Lishun, who was originally the captain of the investigation team, so it is justified to assign him jurisdiction.

Liu Lishun did not work part-time in the Gong Wei Division, the commander of the Gong Wei Division was Zhao Shichun, and the deputy commander was Sun Kewang, who was also the commander of the royal guard room. Feng Shuangli is also the deputy commander, and concurrently serves as the commander of the Detective Bureau, which is referred to as the Bureau.

Gong Weisi is also in charge of the Imperial Forest Army, and the chief and deputy commanders of the Royal Forest Army are Li Derong and Shayir.

The entire Gongwei Division is in the imperial city, the Imperial Forest Army has 20,000 horses, and the guard force under the direct command of Sun Kewang also has 3,000, called the forbidden army, that is, the personnel of the General Affairs Bureau are less, there are only 100 or 10 people at present, but its branches are very large, and the power is also very large, with the right to patrol and arrest, specializing in reconnaissance, arrest and interrogation, and its branches are scattered throughout the country, with a total number of more than 100,000.

Sun Kewang has 3,000 people under his command, and of course the Huotou army is indispensable, although there is no royal eunuch, the problem of eating is not to worry about.

Sure enough, just when Gao Junshan felt a little hungry, Sun Kewang led the cook in the room to deliver the food.

Unveiled the hot cage drawer, and at a glance, it was braised prawns in oil, and the vegetables were fragrant and the rice was hot, Gao Junshan sat down at the dining table and beckoned Sun Kewang to sit down and eat together.

"King Qin, I've eaten it." Sun Kewang asked respectfully.

"Come, sit down and talk." Gao Junshan pointed to the stool beside him, "Are you familiar with the Imperial City?" ”

Sun Kewang sat down and said, "Not yet, it's too big, I haven't finished walking for a day." ”

Gao Junshan said: "You have to get familiar with it quickly, and you can walk around when you don't have a task." ”

"Obey!"

Gao Junshan asked, "Have you ever seen the emperor eat?" ”

"No, but I've heard of it." Sun Kewang replied, "I have a distant uncle named Sun Maolin, who is a eunuch, and I have heard him say it. ”

"Sun Maolin!? I remembered that when Pingliang was besieged, he also helped us. ”

"It's him."

Gao Junshan asked, "Is there any news about him?" ”

Sun Kewang didn't say anything.

"Is there something unspeakable?"

Sun Kewang said: "In the past few days, Liu Duyushi is strictly investigating the case of traitors, and Sun Maolin was arrested by the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and sentenced to car splitting. ”

Gao Junshan asked, "Are you looking for me to intercede?" ”

"Don't you dare."

Gao Junshan asked again: "What crime did he commit?" ”

Sun Kewang said: "In March of the eleventh year of Chongzhen, when the Tartars besieged the capital, burned and looted, and were ready to return with a full load, Zhu Youzhen sent Sun Maolin to intercept the Tartars. ”

"The Tartars gave the money?"

"Yes. Then he let the Tartar out of the customs. ”

Gao Junshan was indignant: "This national scum, Liu Fangliang is right!" For the sake of selfish interests and disregard for the righteousness of the country, do you really want to intercede for him? ”

Sun Kewang said: "I also think Sun Maolin has gone too far. ”

Gao Junshan said: "This is not the past that can be said in two words, he, the scum of the nation, must die!" ”

Sun Kewang bowed his head and was silent.

Gao Junshan knew that when Pingliang was besieged, Sun Maolin made meritorious service to the righteous army, but his traitorous behavior could not be overcome, if Sun Maolin only violated the interests of the righteous army, Gao Junshan would still let him go, he violated the interests of the nation, and it must not be spared.

Gao Junshan said softly: "You can go and see him." ”

Sun Kewang replied: "No, it's his own fault." ”

At this time, a guard came to report, and Zhou Shichen asked to see him.

"Hurry up and invite him in!"

As soon as Zhou Shichen entered the door, he hurriedly reported to Gao Junshan: "King Qin, Song Xiance instigated Liu Zongmin to rebel. ”

Gao Junshan pushed the cage drawer in front of him and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Zhou Shichen said: "Song Xiance was not reused by the King of Qin, and instigated Liu Zongmin to take more than 30,000 people to run in the direction of Fangshan, saying that he wanted to return to Xi'an, reorganize the people and horses to fight the capital, and avenge Li Zicheng." ”

Gao Junshan said: "Something that is not self-sufficient! It's okay to run away, how can Gu Zhengchou ask Liu Zongmin for his guilt, he himself is the opposite. ”

Zhou Shichen worried: "If he really makes trouble in Shaanxi, the situation may be difficult to control." ”

Gao Junshan's face was serious, and he ordered Zhou Shichen: "Gu ordered, Cao Wenzhao's brigade stopped marching towards Shanhaiguan and turned around to pursue Liu Zongmin in Fangshan; The He Renlong Brigade set out from Xi'an to intercept Liu Zongmin. The two brigades of Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong formed a legion to suppress bandits, with Cao Wenzhao as the chief soldier and He Renlong as the deputy chief soldier. ”

Zhou Shichen accepted the order, and after repeating it to Gao Junshan, he withdrew from the Wenhua Hall to carry out the order.

Gao Junshan looked at Sun Kewang and said, "If you go outside, you must first settle inside." ”210
