As for the commander of Jinyiwei, in history, after taking Tian Ergeng, Emperor Chongzhen used Luo Yang, who had a grudge against Wei Zhongxian and Tian Ergeng. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The reason why Luo Yangxing had enmity with Wei, Tian and others was because Luo Yangxing's father, Luo Sigong, was framed by Wei and Tian, not only lost his position as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but also died of anger not long after returning home.

Emperor Chongzhen, who has no one available in history, may feel more at ease with Luo's cultivation, and his father is the commander of Jinyiwei after all, and he has been exposed to Jinyiwei since he was a child, and he is more familiar with Jinyiwei's business than others, and there are also some forces in Jinyiwei, such as easy to master Jinyiwei as soon as possible.

The reason why Chongzhen in history would think like this is because he just took out Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun, and did not kill the middle and upper echelons of Jinyiwei, so other people may not be able to control the complicated situation of Jinyiwei for a while.

But now it's different, Zhu Daming killed the Jinyiwei command envoy to the point of blood, and the so-called Wei Party, Tian Party, Xu Party and other factional organizations were all wiped out, and there was no need to worry about not being able to control Jinyiwei.

So what Zhu Daming wants to do now is just to choose a person who is absolutely loyal to the royal family to be the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and he is optimistic about Gong Yonggu, the young horse commander.

Gong Yonggu is a native of Wanping, Shuntianfu, and is the concubine of Princess Le'an, the daughter of Emperor Taichang, that is, the brother-in-law of Emperor Chongzhen.

This person's family background is quite rich, although there is only one meritorious name, but he is honest and pure, and he understands righteousness, especially loyalty to the Ming royal family.

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen in history, Li Zicheng's peasant army was about to besiege Beijing, Gong Yonggu wrote to Emperor Chongzhen, and quickly moved south, and then fought back in the future after arriving in Nanjing.

But Chongzhen hesitated and did not accept it, but planned to let Gong Yonggu, Liu Wenbing and others protect the prince to Nanjing, but he missed the opportunity and was besieged in the city.

After the city was broken, Gong Yonggu searched for the prince and disappeared, so he returned to his home and set himself on fire and died.

At that time, Princess Le'an had just died, and before she had time to be buried, he brought several children to the coffin of Princess Le'an, and said to them, you are all blood relatives of the Ming royal family, and you are the nephew of the current emperor.

What Zhu Daming admires most is such a loyal person, and a spy agency like Jinyiwei must be in the hands of absolutely loyal and reliable people, and Gong Yonggu is such a candidate.

The appointment of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, like the appointment of the twenty-four yamen of the inner court, is a family matter of the emperor, and no one is allowed to intervene.

The same is true in history, if these people appointed by the emperor do something that is sorry for the court and the emperor, the officials can be impeached, but for the successor, that is, the question of who the emperor should appoint, the courtiers are absolutely not allowed to interfere.

But before Zhu Daming appointed Gong Yonggu, he still wanted to meet and explain.

On the tenth day of the first month of November, when the entire Beijing division was chasing down the Wei party henchmen in Jinyiwei everywhere because the emperor cleared Wei Zhongxian, the mansion of Princess Le'an ushered in the heart of the eunuch Wang from the master of ceremonies and eunuchs for the first time.

Of course, the heart of the king is here to pass the decree, and at the same time, he is also here to meet Princess Le'an, after all, she is the emperor's sister, and the new emperor has not personally summoned the reward after ascending to the pole, and this time the heart of the king has brought both the emperor's decree and the emperor's reward.

Emperor Taichang had many children, but few of them grew up, Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youzhen, and Princess Le'an, among them, grew up and left their names in history.

Although these people were said to be descendants of the royal family when they were young, because Taichang Emperor Zhu Changluo was not favored by Emperor Wanli, and wanted to abolish his crown prince many times, Zhu Youxiao and these people did not have a good time when they were young, but the more brothers and sisters who grew up together, the better the relationship.

Wang Zhixin entered Princess Le'an's mansion, conveyed his will, sat for a while, and returned to the palace with Gong Yonggu to meet the emperor.

When Zhu Daming saw Gong Yonggu for the first time, he felt very good, a white-faced scholar, gentle and elegant, and polite, without the kind of gentlemanly atmosphere of the emperor's relatives at all.

Gong Yonggu had a good relationship with Zhu Youzhen when he was still the king of Xin, and he often talked about writing or something together, but after the emperor ascended the throne, he saw less, not long ago the emperor was seriously ill, he followed Princess Le'an into the palace to visit, but since the emperor woke up, he has not seen it again.

When I saw him this time, I felt that the emperor was quite different, more confident and more majestic than before.

Gong Yonggu thought to himself, maybe this is what a person changes after becoming an emperor.

Gong Yonggu finished the salute. Zhu Daming smiled and said to him: "It's been a while, Princess Le'an and the little nephews are okay?" ”

Thinking of his wife and children, Gong Yonggu also smiled and said: "Your Majesty Xie cares, the princess and the children are all right, and Your Majesty Lao is concerned." ”

Zhu Daming didn't say too much greetings, and waved his hand at Wang Zhixin, and Wang Zhixin withdrew with interest.

Zhu Daming looked at Gong Yonggu and said, "I recruited you into the palace today because I have something for you to do, but before I do it, I want to tell you about it."

"Now that Wei Zhongxian is dead, Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun have also committed suicide in fear of crime, the palm print of the celebrant was given to Cao Huachun, who has been with me for many years, and the factory seal of the East Factory was given to the old man Fang Zhenghua, who is also a hidden residence, as for the Jinyi Guard, I plan to hand it over to you, and you will be the commander of the Jinyi Guard."

After speaking, he looked at Gong Yonggu. Gong Yonggu had a vague premonition when he heard half of it, but when the emperor said it, he still didn't dare to believe his ears.

Gong Yonggu is a relative of the emperor, and he was raised as a pig in the past, lest these people be a disaster to the world, so few people hold any important positions, so that many young talents with ideals and pursuits do not want to be horses, and the common people often say that the emperor's daughter is not worried about marrying, but the daughter of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is also worried about marrying, and a very important point is that the horse is too strict.

Gong Yonggu was stunned, quickly reacted, quickly knelt on the ground again, and said, "Your Majesty trusts the minister so much, and the minister is very grateful. It's just that Jinyiwei has a great responsibility, and the ministers are afraid that they are not capable and incompetent, and if they delay His Majesty's major affairs, the ministers will not be able to atone for their sins if they die. The minister asked the emperor to think twice. And when he had said this, he bowed his head.

Zhu Daming looked at Gong Yonggu who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up and speak, your family doesn't need to be so polite." ”

Seeing Gong Yonggu get up, Zhu Daming continued: "The position of Jinyiwei is important, of course, it cannot be delayed, but if I hand him over to a person who is not at ease, even if this person has the ability, I will not be able to sleep peacefully. Yu Gong, you are the imperial prince, you are the captain of the horse, Yu Zhi you are my brother-in-law, and you share weal and woe with Daming and me, only by handing over the brocade guard to you, can I really feel at ease. ”

Obedient and obedient, Gong Yonggu is not a fool, when he heard this, he already knew that the emperor had decided on this matter, and then he would make the emperor unhappy, and who could not be self-motivated, so he got up and knelt down again, and said: "Minister Gong Yonggu thanked Your Majesty Longen." ”

Zhu Daming didn't call him up this time, but continued: "Originally, a will could let you take office, and the reason why I called you here is to tell you a few things. Now Tian Ergeng committed suicide in fear of crime, and the command in Beijing made the Yamen almost swept away, but Jinyiwei was controlled by Wei Zhongxian and Tian Ergeng for many years.

"I will give it to you, and I will bear it. Now that the world is in turmoil, and the thieves and thieves are constantly making trouble, Jinyiwei's eyes cannot be limited to the courtiers and officials, but to spread the eyeliner widely in the world, especially the prisoners and thieves, and they must be laid out in advance. ”

After saying this, seeing that Gong Yonggu nodded in approval, Zhu Daming continued: "I recently changed the Yiluan Division to the Gongwei Division, just to clarify its responsibilities. As for the rest, I think that in addition to the Gongwei Division, the Experience Division, and the Suppression Division of the North and South Beijings, the Jinyi Guard will also add the Espionage Division and the Anti-Traitor Division. The Espionage Department specializes in spying and infiltrating prisoners and thieves. The Anti-Traitor Division is dedicated to preventing and correcting the prisoners and thieves in the Ming Dynasty, especially in Beijing. ”

After saying this, Zhu Daming looked at Gong Yonggu again and said: "What I said is just a summary, a specific strategy, you have to go back and think about it, and the current priority is to get rid of the Wei Party above and below Jinyiwei." ”

Gong Yonggu listened to what the emperor said, his heart was shocked, he didn't expect the emperor to think so far, even the construction of the northeast and the thieves in the northwest who were not in the climate, he thought of sending a fine work to find out the news.

But what the emperor said also opened up a new world for him, in addition to monitoring the courtiers, Jinyiwei can actually do such things that are beneficial to the court and the people of the world.

Gong Yonggu listened to what the emperor said, and immediately replied: "Your Majesty Xie is the minister's guidance, and the minister must obey the holy order, do his best, and die." ”

Next, Zhu Daming explained a few more things to him, and then Gong Yonggu left the palace.

In the afternoon of the same day, the eunuch Wang Xinxin appeared in Princess Le'an's mansion again, this time of course, he still came to pass the decree, but this time the will is not ordinary, once announced, Gong Yonggu officially became the commander of Jinyiwei.

Among the several things that Zhu Daming explained to him, one was called the secret folding system. After listening to the emperor's words, Gong Yonggu felt both suddenly enlightened and shuddered.

The so-called secret folding system that Zhu Daming planned to implement was a system developed by Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty later.

Although the secret folding system was created by the Manchu Emperor, Zhu Daming thought it was very good.

Because he was too worried about the cabinet and the general administration department in the late Ming Dynasty.

The General Administration, the Cabinet, and the Celebrant Supervisor, one of these departments has a problem, for example, if you don't want the emperor to see it, then the emperor is likely to not see it.

The reason why the emperor of the Ming Dynasty built Jinyiwei and built the East Factory, and once had to build the West Factory, was that he could not understand the military and civilian affairs of the world and could not get it, because there was a lack of effective channels.

If you want to put aside the restrictions of the inner court and the outer court, and more conveniently obtain military and political information, the best way is of course to run a newspaper, but Zhu Daming does not want to engage in this thing at present.

The secret folding system is a bit like the internal journal information reporting channel in later generations, which can not only use the channels of Jinyiwei and Dongchang all over the world, but also do not have to add too much burden to them, and at the same time, you can also talk directly to the ministers you trust, instead of waiting for the cabinet and the celebrant to pass on the folds.

Of course, it is impossible to grant the power of secret folding affairs to all ministers, and this is a privilege that Zhu Daming intends to grant to his cronies.
