Wang Chengen smiled and said: "There is no need to be a slave, Man Gui obeys the order." After that, he picked up the holy decree from the hand of the little eunuch next to him and read: "I heard that Mangui is loyal and brave and good at fighting, and he is promoted to the guard to pacify, and I admire this." ”

Man Gui was full of hesitation and said: "The minister's merit has reached Chen Conghuan's sin, and he doesn't dare to accept the order." ”

Wang Chengen secretly praised in his heart, and said: "The saint said that if you capture a golden spy, you can offset Chen Conghuan's crime, and the rest of the credit can be converted into a suppression, and you can be promoted to a suppression, and you still don't accept the order when you are full of suppression?" ”

Man Gui kowtowed and said, "The minister receives the order, thank you Lord Longen." Then he got up and took the holy decree, turned his head to Chen Conghuan and said, "Xiao Huan, are you willing to enter Beijing with me?" ”

Chen Conghuan said: "From now on, Big Brother Man is my own eldest brother, where the eldest brother goes, Xiao Huan will go." ”

Man Gui said: "I'm not your eldest brother, I'm your brother-in-law, I naturally want to have children, but your sister is my main room." ”

So Man Gui took Chen Conghuan and followed Wang Chengen back to Beijing, and Zhu Youxiao finally saw this Man Gui who asked for money and didn't want officials.

After Man Gui saw the salute, he knelt on the ground and refused to get up, asking the emperor to allow him to be a house slave. Zhu Youxiao scolded with a smile: "We are not slaves, there is no such thing as being a slave, you get up." ”

Man Gui kowtowed and said: "The emperor's great kindness, the micro-ministers have nothing to repay, only this cheap life, I want to send it to the emperor, as long as the emperor says to kill whoever the minister says in the future, the minister will kill whom, please give the emperor a name for the minister." ”

Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "It's rare that you are loyal, since that's the case, I'll give you a word, Qianyi, there is a saying called full of losses, and I hope you can be modest and cautious, cherish yourself, and make meritorious contributions to the Ming Dynasty." ”

Man Gui was overjoyed and said: "Thank you for the emperor's words, and the ministers will keep in mind the holy precepts, never be complacent, and be loyal to the emperor." ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "You are skilled in martial arts, brave in battle, this is a brave general, but in the Guards, martial arts are important, but you have to remember that not every time you have to go into battle to kill the enemy yourself, but also be able to kill the enemy with your subordinates, you first understand the basic situation in the Guards, and integrate into it as soon as possible, I still have a lot of tasks to be handed over to you to complete." ”

Man Gui agreed, and Zhu Youxiao said: "You are old, but you are not yet married, this matter must be hurried, do you want me to give you a marriage?" ”

Man Gui shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't want to marry a wife, and the minister thinks that only Chen Wei is the main wife, so if you want to buy a concubine, you can stay in the future." ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "You set Chen Wei as your wife, which shows that you have a deep affection for her, but after you start a family, you still have to have a wife to preside over the affairs of the family, you can continue the string, buy a concubine and have children, it is not fair to the child, is it possible to let the child be born as a concubine?" ”

Man Gui only wanted to respect Chen Wei as his wife, but he didn't think of the identity of the child in the future, and he couldn't imagine that this problem could be solved by continuing, and now Zhu Youxiao said, and suddenly realized: "Thank you for the emperor's order, the minister does not dare to ask the emperor for marriage, the minister will invite the matchmaker himself, settle down as soon as possible, and serve the emperor wholeheartedly." ”

Luo Sigong was in charge of Jinyi Wei, and the East Factory was overseer. And Zhu Youxiao sent Zhang Cheng and Liu Jingwen's Independent Commission Against Corruption out as their first mission to see how effective it was.

Luo Sigong sent Tian Ergeng to be responsible for raiding the merchants of Zhangjiakou Fort, and Wei Zhongxian sent Tu Wenfu to supervise.

Tian Ergeng and Tu Wenfu lived in Zhangjiakou Fort together, and along the way, Tian Ergeng deliberately flattered Tu Wenfu and served him very comfortably. When I arrived at Zhangjiakou Fort, the first thing to raid was Fan Yongdou's home, the Fan family began to do business since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and there have been seven generations so far, and the wealth accumulated over the years is a very terrifying amount.

Fan Yongdou has already explained the location of the secret room clearly, so Tian Ergeng started from the secret room, Tian Ergeng and Tu Wenfu sat outside the exit of the secret room, a big table was placed in front of them, Jinyiwei's wrestler took out a treasure from the secret room and put it on the table, if Tu Wenfu did not say it, Tian Ergeng signaled Lux to take it, and the small flag of the account was recorded in the account book, if Tu Wenfu was interested, then it would not be recorded in the book.

After half a day like this, Tu Wenfu had already selected twenty Dongzhu, ten corals, two sets of Huanghuali furniture, thirty gold nuggets, and a lot of other gadgets. At this time, only half of the secret room was counted.

At noon, he ate at the exit of the secret room, and then continued to clean up, Tu Wenfu selected some more things, and loaded a total of eight carts. He said to Tian Ergeng with satisfaction: "There are seven cars here that are selected for the factory, and the remaining one car is my hard work, and you have also worked hard, choose two cars." ”

Tian Ergeng said respectfully: "My father-in-law only chooses one car, how dare the small one choose two cars, and half a car is enough." ”

Tu Wenfu said: "There are so many people under you, everyone comes out to work for the emperor, and they always have to get some benefits, you choose two cars, and everyone will share them together." ”

Tian Ergeng bowed his head and said, "Thank you, father-in-law, for understanding the people below." ”

Just by confiscating the Fan family's property in Zhangjiakou Fort, they obtained all kinds of treasures and silver taels, which amounted to about 18 million taels, while the other seven families had slightly less property than the Fan family, but they also copied a total of 46 million taels, so that the total number was 64 million taels.

When Zhu Youxiao saw this number, he was stunned. Or copy the house has a head, I am making glass, and making mirrors, creating a silver mirror far beyond this era, and may only earn 10 million taels of silver a year, this copy of the home, it is more than the sum of six years, although many of them are jewelry, and the realization may be slow, but it is all money, now I want to open a school, I want to train soldiers, and I have money.

However, when Zhang Cheng brought the report of the Independent Commission Against Corruption in the evening, he immediately felt bad. According to the investigation by the Independent Commission Against Corruption, 50 of the convoys that entered Beijing were transferred to Tu Wenfu's outer house, and 30 were transferred to Tian Ergeng's house.

Zhang Cheng and Liu Jingwen were ordered to set up the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and first recruited Xiucai and Juzi in the Guozi Prison. At this time, the rule of the imperial court officials was extremely dark, and the students of Guozijian were not very old, and there were many people who hated this deeply, so a large number of people were willing to join the ranks of fighting corrupt officials. Liu Jingwen is relatively old, and according to the students' family situation and daily performance, 50 students are recruited without official backgrounds.

These students were full of enthusiasm, and together they began to build the system of the Independent Commission Against Corruption according to Zhu Youxiao's instructions, and soon set up the shelves of the Statistics Bureau and the Action Bureau.

The Bureau of Statistics is led by Zhang Cheng and consists of 20 students, who have absorbed some shopkeepers who are good at checking accounts from the outside, while the Action Bureau is led by 30 students, led by Liu Jingwen, and each member has recruited five ruffians and hooligans who are good at inquiring about news. Therefore, as soon as the convoy left Zhangjiakou Fort, they were targeted, and Jinyiwei and Dongchang did not expect that someone would dare to spy on them, so they acted carelessly, and as a result, the people of the Independent Commission Against Corruption were arrested.
