Chapter Seventy-Five: Hongzhi's Eighteen-Year Plan
Looking at Yan Song who came out of the hall, his brows were tightly knit and his heart was worried. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info Wang Tingxiang and Shi Heng glanced at each other, knowing that this person was afraid that he still did not get rid of the emperor's clutches in the end. I feel a pity that such a good young man was ruined like this.
But the words are too light, is the emperor's order so easy to resist?
Yan Song came out and raised his eyes to see the two in front of him, and hurriedly bowed, "Yan Song has seen two adults!" ”
"Has the emperor ever taken back his fate?" Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Shi Xuan asked.
Yan Song shook his head and was about to speak. But I heard the former sigh, "The emperor has done too much in this matter!" ”
Then he said one more sentence. "No, I have to talk to Your Majesty about this matter anyway."
Shi Xuan just wanted to rush in, but was stopped by Wang Tingxiang behind him. He glanced back at the latter, his displeasure palpable.
"Brother Bangyan, don't be impulsive, let's listen to Yan Shu often explain things clearly." Wang Tingxiang explained.
Hearing this, Shi Xuan looked at Yan Song on the side, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped, obviously he really had something to say. nodded, "It's okay, if Yan Shuchang really has something to say, just say it, Lord Wang and I will try our best to help you." ”
"Thank you two adults for your love, Yan Song is unforgettable." Yan Song bowed to the two. After all, he has nothing to do with Wang Tingxiang and Shi Xuan, but he is willing to commit the following crimes for his own sake, even if it is a relative, he may not be able to do it, and it is false to say that he is not moved.
Of course, he also overestimated the risks, Wang Tingxiang and Shi Xuan were the two ministers who stayed by the emperor's side for the longest time, and they were also the two who were most familiar with Zheng De's temperament. The latter may be furious because of the minister's admonition, but at least in the few months when the emperor ascended the throne, no one was "convicted for his words", which is also where Shi Xuan dared to do so.
If you change to a tyrannical emperor, you may lose your life if you don't get it right, and Shi Xuan may not be so impulsive.
"Your Majesty has given the official position to the Ming State Security Bureau."
Hearing Yan Song's words, the two were stunned, and Wang Tingxiang asked suspiciously, "Didn't the emperor say that you should be in charge of the East Factory?" Furthermore, what kind of office is this Ming State Security Bureau, newly established by His Majesty? ”
"Your Majesty changed the name of Dongchang to the Daming National Security Bureau, and let the subordinate be responsible for the safety work of the Daming Jiangshan Sheji." Speaking of this, Yan Song was excited.
The two people who watched looked at each other, isn't this one crazy?
Is the head of the East Factory so happy?
Besides, it's just a name change, is that so?
Of course, they didn't know that this classmate Yan had just been fooled by someone, and his mind hadn't calmed down yet, otherwise it wouldn't have been this expression.
"Daming National Security Agency? Responsible for the safety work of Daming Jiangshan Sheji? When Wang Ting heard this, he looked at him and asked suspiciously, "What exactly does this government office do?" ”
"You can't say it, you can't say it." Although his brain is not very sober now, he has obviously not forgotten Zheng De's advice. However, he was afraid that the two adults would misunderstand, so he added, "The Daming National Security Bureau is responsible for the security of Daming Jiangshan Sheji and His Majesty." As for what to do, it needs to be kept secret because of the government office, so the two adults should not be embarrassed. ”
Seeing that Shi Xuan still wanted to ask something, Wang Tingxiang was thoughtful and said to him, "If there is something, then you can go and get busy." ”
"Then the next official will leave." Yan Song secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, he was really afraid that these two would continue to ask questions, and he was really a little overwhelmed.
Looking at the back of the former leaving in a hurry, Shi Xuan looked at Wang Tingxiang with a puzzled expression, "Wang Shi, why don't you ask clearly?" ”
"What is there to ask? Didn't this Yan Shuchang say it very clearly just now, the Daming State Security Bureau, as the name suggests, is an office responsible for the security of the Daming Dynasty. Wang Tingxiang said lightly.
Shi Xuan said a little depressed, "This is too general!" ”
Wang Tingxiang couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, this person has been in the officialdom for so many years, and his mind is still too simple, don't you understand that curiosity kills cats?
"I know why Yan Song didn't dare to say it just now, it is obviously the reason that the emperor told me, and you can't ask anything if you ask. If you dig to the bottom of it, isn't this deliberately embarrassing people. ”
Shi Xuan also nodded awkwardly when he heard this, "What the royal servant said is very true. ”
……
Looking at Yan Song's departing back, Zheng De thought carefully about what he had done in the past few months. Although the change of Jinyiwei to the Military Intelligence Bureau has a spoof connotation, it is not without purpose, mainly responsible for the military and overseas intelligence gathering work. And now he suddenly thought of changing the East Factory into the National Security Bureau, firstly, because he did not want the internal affairs government to be too powerful, and secondly, to check and balance the military intelligence bureau. However, this is not only the purpose, the main purpose is to be responsible for the collection of intelligence in the territory, to prevent the occurrence of rebellion and rebellion, and he is still in the dark.
As for the appointment of Yan Song as the director of the National Security Bureau, it is not only because of his bad reputation in his previous life, but also because he is a new science and technology jinshi and has no background in the DPRK. And being in charge of such an independent spy intelligence agency also made it impossible for him to borrow power from the civil and military officials of the imperial court, and in the end, if he wanted to be promoted, he could only rely on himself. This also ensures the independence of the NSA, and it is difficult for someone to use it as a bargaining chip, thereby endangering their own safety.
There is also the Military Intelligence Bureau, Mu Bin has been in charge of Jinyiwei for so many years, so naturally there is no need to doubt it. And these two intelligence agencies, one internal and the other external, check and balance each other and supervise each other. Although it will not have any impact on the overall situation of the imperial court, it is like two sharp knives hidden in the shadows, at least he has the power to defend himself.
As for carrying out reforms and the like, there were rumors that the imperial examination reform would be carried out, and the entire imperial court was a voice of opposition, and there were few responders. Obviously, the Chinese officials of the imperial court were too powerful and extremely opposed to this kind of "chaos into law". This also made him suddenly realize that changing the law is not a simple matter, especially in the peaceful and prosperous times, it is simply more difficult to change the law.
After all, the contradictions in society are not so acute, and the drawbacks have not been fully revealed, except for a few long-term officials who are aware of this problem, for the majority of officials who are content with the status quo, the Taiping and prosperous era is simply a blind toss, and it will naturally be opposed by the majority of officials.
This also made Zheng De understand that changing the law is not a trick, and he can do whatever he thinks. The relationship between interests is complicated, and if you don't understand it, it will only end up as a mess, and the result will be even worse. Therefore, the implementation of the reform plan or something can only be put on hold for the time being. At least after he completely controls the entire imperial court, he may start to slowly try to implement it.
Then, the only thing Zheng De has to do and can do now is to completely control the entire imperial army's army in his own hands. And the phrase "power comes out of the barrel of a gun" also made him understand that reform and the like are not the most important at present. Only when you have mastered the army and have the capital to make a living can you have the qualifications to do other things.
Just like if a person wants to run without learning to walk, it is easy to fall on his heels.
The establishment of the Military Aircraft Department, the reorganization of the entire Ming army, the abolition of the guard post and the hereditary system of military households......
One plan after another swirled in Zheng De's mind, and it also gave him a preliminary plan for what he should do in the next three to five years.
