Chapter 419 Disposition
Wei Yang was very anxious and restless.
Two days ago, after listening to Shan Minglei's flickering, after sending his subordinates to Linqing, he was in this state.
Now he regrets it very much, regrets that he shouldn't have listened to Shan Minglei's words and concealed that Hou Ye did such a thing.
Although Shan Minglei swore that this was all for the future of Hou Ye, Wei Yang also thought so, but he was still uneasy.
If one day Hou Ye knew that he was hiding him, how would he treat himself?
Maybe he will never be able to get the trust of the Hou Ye anymore. That would make Wei Yang extremely desperate.
From a poor military household to now the head of the Enemy Intelligence Department of the Governor's Palace, holding power in his hands, Wei Yang never thought that he would have the prestige he has today. I also know that I can have everything I have now because I am with the right person.
If he hadn't chosen to follow the Hou Ye who was still only inspecting from the ninth grade, he would still be the military household who ate the last meal but didn't have the next meal! No, the north has fallen, and he can't even get a military household, and maybe he has become a starvation on the side of the road......
Although I did everything for the sake of Master Hou, it was not right to hide him, Wei Yang thought.
There is another reason that makes Wei Yang restless, that is, the Enemy Intelligence Department is not monolithic, although he is in charge, but there are still three people engaged in the Enemy Intelligence Division, and there are also supervision envoys, and he is not the only one who has the final say.
Shan Minglei is only the head of the Suppression Division, and he does not know the details of the Enemy Intelligence Division.
Although the Enemy Intelligence Department was nominally dispatched to investigate the enemy's situation, it was actually tasked with supervising the internal affairs of the Governor's Palace.
Through Wei Yang's hands, he secretly recruited dozens of fine works and placed them beside officials at all levels in Yangzhou City, so Chen Yue knew everything about Liang Huanping, the salt transportation envoy.
Since the other officials have the eyes and ears of the enemy intelligence department around them, will there be a pair of eyes staring at them behind them? Wei Yang was very frightened, because he didn't know it himself.
With deep worry, Wei Yang came to Chen Yue's official hall again.
"You're finally here!" Chen Yue glanced at Wei Yang lightly, and suddenly Wei Yang broke out in a cold sweat, and fell to the ground with a "poof".
"The subordinates are wrong, please be gracious." Wei Yang leaned over and said in a trembling voice.
What's going on? Chen Yue was suddenly surprised. When Wei Yang came two days ago, Chen Yue was in a bad mood because of something in his heart, so he drove him out. But Chen Yue still remembered in his heart that he knew that Wei Yang must have something to do before he came to him.
Who knows if he said casually now, Wei Yang was scared like this, what happened?
"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Chen Yue said quietly, as if everything was under control.
"Yes, Master Hou." Wei Yang knelt on the ground and told the story of the incident one by one, without adding oil or vinegar, nor putting all the blame on Shan Minglei, just pleading for his actions.
Listening to Wei Yang's words, Chen Yue's face was not shocked, but his heart was turbulent.
Yongwang Zhu Cijiong is still alive! It turns out that the legendary third prince Zhu does have someone.
Since he heard that Zhu Cijiong was alive and rescued him and sent him to Nanjing, Shan Minglei dared to incite Wei Yang to do such a thing!
What is for his own sake, for himself and Princess Kunxing's future son to inherit the unification. I'm bah, you Shan Minglei thinks too much. There is also Wei Yang, his mind is too simple, others just flicker a few words, and they can't find the north!
Chen Yue scoffed at Shan Minglei's thoughts, didn't he think that even if there was no Zhu Cijiong, but Chongzhen was still alive, he would not be able to have another son if he was not yet forty years old?
People Chongzhen can give birth to the prince and princess, which means that there is no problem with the reproductive function, as long as a few more concubines are accepted, there is no problem with reproducing ten or eight princes, according to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, when will it be the turn of the emperor's grandson to inherit the throne.
Besides, Chen Yue himself has no ambition to be an emperor, let alone a son who wants to be an emperor.
In Chen Yue's view, the emperor may be the hardest and most tiring errand in the world. Looking at Chongzhen's rickety body and precocious hair, you can know whether the emperor's job is good or not.
Although he nominally owns the whole world, he can't compare to the rich gentry and wealthy businessmen in terms of wealth, and he can't compare to ordinary talents in terms of freedom, what is the taste of such an emperor.
Chen Yue didn't want to be like Chongzhen, confined in the Forbidden City, and couldn't finish his heart for the country and the world. If the world is peaceful one day, he would prefer to return to the field, in a place where the door faces the sea and the spring flowers are blooming, with beautiful women as companions, surrounded by children, idle to drink a few cups, and walk around.
So Chen Yue never thought about rebelling and becoming an emperor, and he was not interested.
But I never thought that I didn't want to, and there were people around me who made this plan!
Chen Yue calmed down and thought about it, and he could understand Shan Minglei's thoughts, for Shan Minglei, only the fame of Xiucai limited his future development, and in the Daming system, he couldn't be a high-ranking official at all. That's why he wanted to support himself or his future son as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in order to realize his ambitions.
Everyone has their own ideals, which is understandable, but what Chen Yue can't tolerate is that some of his subordinates act behind their backs and cover themselves in applause.
Therefore, the behavior of Shan Minglei and Wei Yang must be punished to set an example!
"Get up," Chen Yue commanded lightly.
Wei Yang stood up and stood aside dejectedly. It's okay if he is scolded for a few words, but judging from Chen Yue's calm expression, Wei Yang knows that Chen Yue is really angry.
"You, someone else fooled you in a few words, how can I trust you to hand over the enemy intelligence department to you like this! You go to the new army as a battalion. ”
After a few words, Chen Yue dismissed the head of Weiyang's Enemy Intelligence Division and sent him to the army to make a battalion.
However, Wei Yang's heart relaxed, he knew that his personality was indeed not suitable for staying in the Enemy Intelligence Division, and it was just right to lead troops to fight, and it was also his long-standing wish.
"Thank you, Lord Kais!" Wei Yang sobbed.
On the second day, Chen Yue ordered that the heads of the shogunate departments be adjusted. The post of director of the Enemy Intelligence Department of Wei Yang was abolished, and he was reappointed as the head of the new military camp in Pingnan, and He Lu was the director of the Enemy Intelligence Department.
Shan Minglei was appointed as the director of the newly established Sihai Salt Bank, and Du Yuan held the post of director of the Zhenfu Division. Although Chen Yue said that the Sihai Salt Company was too important to the Governor's Palace, the development and growth of the Pingnan Army needed the profit support of the Sihai Salt Company, because Shan Minglei had rich experience in business, so he entrusted this important position to him. But in the eyes of people who are familiar with the inside story, Shan Minglei was squeezed out of the core of the Governor's Mansion because he did something wrong......
ps: This month is coming to an end, and the results are not satisfactory, perhaps because of the lack of energy for the New Year. There are many things to do during the Chinese New Year, and my father is sick and hospitalized, and he has not been discharged from the hospital yet. However, the author will try to adjust as much as possible, and the thrilling war is coming. Also, at the end of the month, ask for some tickets!
