Chapter Twenty-Three: No One Underneath
Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty set up a hundred households, one hundred households, one hundred households, a general banner, a small banner, from the subordinates there are school captains, wrestlers, external staff to a certain matter, school orders, and proficient in multi-Chinese translation.
The so-called trial 100 households, that is, the deputy 100 households, the 100 households in Nanjing is a vacancy, just set up, but never send people, so the 100 households here are the largest.
Li Yan has two general flags under his command and more than 100 lieutenants who can command.
One of the two general flags is surnamed Zhao, called Zhao Shun, and the other is surnamed Lin Mingchong.
Here I have to say more about this person named Lin Chong, there are many people who have taken a fierce name but their temperament is not violent, but this Lin Chong not only has a fierce name, but also a hundred single and eight generals who are alive, and this guy is not as friendly as Zhao Zongqi's expression.
There is also a scribe under Li Yan, let the scribe gather everyone together, Li Yan scans around with the roster in his hand, and everyone is very respectful.
After meeting the new boss, it seems that the old monk has entered the ancient well without waves, and he can't see anything.
After checking the names against the roster of scribes, Li Yan let everyone disperse, leaving only Zhao Shun, who looked like he was a good bully.
Mr. Zhao's name has a smooth character, which looks very simple. After two glasses of wine and a few ingots of silver, Zhao Shun happily told the cause and effect of all the things.
It turned out that the position of Baihu was not Li Chong's, and the last Baihu should have been Lin Chong's after he abdicated when he was old, but Young Master Xu stepped in sideways, allowing Li Yan to occupy this position that originally belonged to Lin Chong, and naturally Lin Chong's heart was unhappy.
Whoever has a position is robbed by others, they must find a way to find the field.
Li Yan doesn't like to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, and the rooster is also full of meat, if it can be fed, Li Yan doesn't mind raising a few more, of course, if this chicken wants to die, Li Yan has to boil water and prepare a pot.
As for Zhao Zongqi, he is very peaceful, obviously not the one who is a chicken waiting to be killed.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, gave Jinyiwei the right to inspect and arrest, and made him in charge of the prison, so that he could bypass the laws of the Ming Dynasty to deal with major cases involving court officials, and be directly responsible to the emperor. The big cases in the Hongwu period, especially the fierce Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu cases, were almost inseparable from the shadow of Jinyiwei for their arrest and interrogation.
However, even though he was wearing a flying fish suit and holding an embroidered spring knife, Jinyiwei was only a "guard" after all, and his grassroots cadre "General Banner" was only a petty official of the seventh grade - equivalent to a local Xiaozhi County, and his annual salary was less than fifty taels.
In contrast, the horsemen hired by the Ming Dynasty court can also reach forty taels a year, from which it is not difficult to deduce, as a brocade guard, its gorgeous clothes can not hide its shy money bag. The salary income of officials in the Ming Dynasty is the least, although there is a saying since ancient times that "learning and excellence is the best", but in the Ming Dynasty as an official must not be the best choice for an honest person.
To put it mildly, it is not difficult for Sun Mao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing, to toss himself, let alone a noble grandfather like Xu Pengju.
Thinking of this, Li Yan set his eyes on that Lin Zongqi, I don't know why, how Lin Chong looks like the chicken in the chicken killing monkey.
Wooing and suppressing, one step at a time, unconsciously, Li Yan also pondered the emperor's skill of controlling people.
