Chapter 253: Corruption
After going down the mountain, he returned directly to the Beizhen Fusi, took Wang Zhou and a cadre of guards, and immediately retook the power of the Beizhen Fusi.
Mu Bin did not show any objection to this, and after calmly reporting all the things that should be reported, he sent the list of all the officials who were arrested and sent to Zhang Ru's duty room.
This Jinyi Wei commander who was once robbed by Zhang Ru from Beizhen Fusi to Dongsi's room knows very well his status and the personality of his old boss.
The people under him were very dissatisfied with Zhang Ru, but because of the prestige of King Zhang Yan, few of these people dared to say that he was not in front of him. However, someone whispered in private, and was reprimanded after being caught by Mu Bin, so no one dared to discuss the merits and demerits of the commander of the Jinyi Guard in private.
The reorganized mausoleum guards drawn from the forbidden army quickly occupied various dangerous positions in the West Mountain, and 3,000 people surrounded the West Mountain. On the day of Zhang Ru's return, it was completely declared that the entire Xishan had become another place for idlers in the Ming Dynasty to be exempted from entering except for Maoling.
After the Beijing inspection, a large number of corrupt officials were arrested, and there were not a few people who were exiled.
When Zhang Ru returned to Beijing, the first thing Wang Shu did was to find Mu Bin, who was quite happy to cooperate with him, as a lobbyist, hoping that Zhang Ru could give his opinion as soon as possible and let Zhu Youzhu make a decision.
After sitting on the throne for a year, Zhu Youzhang's political literacy has become mature, not to mention that with the assistance of Qiu Jun, Liu Jian and other cabinet veterans, he can make his own decisions.
As for why the emperor did not make a decision for a long time and insisted on waiting for Zhang Ru to come back to make a decision, there were different opinions in the court, some said that Zhang Ru was so powerful that the emperor did not dare to make decisions without authorization, and some said that the emperor was hypocritical and wanted to let Zhang Ru carry the black pot, and some people said that Zhang Ru was the emperor.
In this regard, Zhu Youzhu did not say a word, and simply regarded those gossips as stinky farts.
Mu Bin faintly sensed that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, until Wang Shu asked him for help, he realized that all this seemed to be inseparable from the King Zhang Yan who everyone shouted at the beginning.
In the duty room of the commander of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, Zhang Ru quickly sketched on the file with a wolf pen in his hand, and Fan Tong and Wang Zhou stood on the left and right, and the next was the commander of Jinyi Wei with a cramped expression, Mu Bin.
"Tell me your own opinions, how to deal with these people, Mu Bin, you say it first." Zhang Ru put down his pen with a grim expression.
Mu Bin's eyes looked at his toes, and he said without hurry: "My subordinates think that if you kill, you will be killed, and if you don't kill, you will be released." β
If you say this, you don't say it, you will naturally kill those who should be killed, and those who should not be killed can only be exiled.
Zhang Ru turned his gaze to Wang Zhou.
Wang Zhou thought for a while and said: "Those who are in a high position and greedy are exiled as the best choice, and those who are greedy for a huge amount of ink are the most suitable to be killed." As for those who are lowly and petty, whether to kill or chase, or to be free, it is all in the mind of the Hou Ye. β
Those who are high and greedy will cause a backlash from officials if they are killed, after all, such a person is either a protΓ©gΓ© all over the world, or a person who covers the world in the same year. Dealing heavily with such people, it is difficult to guarantee that the people of their faction will not jump out to accuse Jinyiwei.
The people in the middle are in a position that is not up or down, not embarrassed or embarrassed, they are the best tools to kill chickens and monkeys, kill them, the people below will be afraid, and the people above can also play a certain role in alerting.
As for those who are lowly and low-ranked, such people can naturally be killed or not, because the killing of such people will not have much impact on the officials. Many people are just a chess piece in the hands of high-ranking officials, and if this chess piece is gone, Dingtian is to cultivate another chess piece, which is no big deal.
If the third type of person is used well, it will have unexpected benefits for Jinyiwei and Daming officialdom, and if it is not used well, it will be a big problem.
Therefore, when Wang Zhou said that the third type of person, he used a sentence to kill or not to kill is between Hou Ye's thoughts. Because of such a thing, he couldn't make a decision for Zhang Ru, not even a suggestion.
Zhang Ru nodded, and asked Fan Tong again: "What do you think?" β
Fan Tong scratched his head: "Hehe, whatever the Hou Ye says is what it is, anyway, when I kill someone, Old Fan I can take out a knife." β
Zhang Ru chuckled: "It doesn't matter if you hide clumsiness in front of others, but in front of me, there is no need to hide clumsy." They are all their own brothers, and if there is nothing they can't say, they all talk about their opinions. β
Before Fan Tong could speak, Wang Zhou had already taken the lead and said: "Who is a brother with him, such a powerful brother, Wang can't climb high." β
In his words, he referred to Mu Bin, not Fan Tong.
As if he hadn't heard, Mu Bin still squinted at his toes.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Zhang Ru changed the topic and said, "Lao Mou, is there any beautiful girl on your feet, is it so good-looking?" β
Mu Bin was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, when he heard Wang Zhou say again: "Maybe someone is above the top, and even you don't care about it." β
After several provocations, Zhang Ru couldn't help but scold: "Wang Zhou, you shut up for me, no one will treat you as a dumb person if you don't speak!" β
Wang Zhou gritted his back molars dissatisfiedly, staring at Mu Bin motionless.
Mu Bin raised his eyes and glanced at Wang Zhou, still didn't speak, lowered his head again, and looked at his toes again.
Zhang Ru stood up and walked to Mu Bin's side: "Actually, I just want to hear your opinion. β
Mu Bin said lightly: "It's all up to Master Hou's orders." β
He didn't seem to want to express any opinions, so he let Hou Ye tell him one by one.
This is a matter of offending people, if it weren't for the fact that Zhang Ru didn't need to offend people on the table, he would even think that this was Mu Bin wanting to kill people through the mouths of those civil officials.
Unable to get an answer, Zhang Ru sighed and said: "I don't want to ask about the grievances between you, and I can't hold it in my hands forever on Jinyiwei's side, there are many things I have to do." As for how to deal with these people this time, I will not give any advice, and leave it all to Mu Bin to deal with. Lao Mou, you don't want to say it here, when Lord Wang Shu looks for you in the future, you have to give your own decision. β
The words have been said obviously, once Zhang Ru steps down from Jinyiwei's side in the future, then the person who will take office will undoubtedly be Mu Bin. This is a wake-up call to Wang Zhou, and it is also a reminder to Mu Bin.
Wang Zhou opened his mouth, and was forced back by Zhang Ru's sharp eyes.
He really wanted to say that if Mu Bin was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, I would not do it, and he wanted to say that I didn't agree, but he couldn't say it.
In all fairness, if Zhang Ru steps down, the most suitable person to take over the post of commander of Jinyiwei will be no second choice except for Mu Bin.
The people around Zhang Ru have their own abilities, but no one can compare to Mu Bin in terms of overall situation and sense of justice. Fan Tong is thick on the outside and fine on the inside, and he can see through many things, but he is not a person who is good at winning people's hearts, if he takes over, then Jinyiwei will become a plate of loose sand; Wang Zhou has momentum and courage, and can be meticulous in doing things, but the overall situation is not enough, and he is easy to be impulsive. Jiang Wei is very honest and reliable, and he has the identity of the nine guards of Tianmen there, but he is too honest, it is estimated that he will really become the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and he will become the first commander in the history of the Ming Dynasty to be overturned, after all, there are few young people in the East Sifang trained by Zhang Ru who are easy to deal with.
After hearing Zhang Ru's words, Mu Bin finally spit out a few words in his mouth: "More than four grades, stop it!" Four to six grades, kill them! Below the six grades, those who can use it, those who can't use it, flow it! β
Zhang Ru nodded and said: "The two imperial historians have sent a lot of people, and the thirteen imperial historians have also begun to investigate the local officials. You let your brothers follow you to the Thirteen Roads, notify the local Qianhu Office to fully cooperate, and be sure to make some movement in the Ming officialdom. β
Mu Bin arched his hand: "The subordinates obey the order." β
The major operation against the Ming officialdom was decided in the duty room of the commander of the Beizhen Fusi Jinyi Guard.
The target this time was not only the Beijing officials in the capital, nor only the local officials, but even all the officials, including those imperial historians, were included in the assessment objectives of Jinyiwei.
The next day, a large number of officials in Jinyi Weizhao Prison were escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market, and hundreds of heads rolled down at the sound of an order. On the premise of promising Old Man Li not to add more killings, this time only the officials who committed the crime were killed, and their relatives basically did not move.
After the poor Wang Shu Wang and the old master opened a killing ring in Jinyiwei, he bore the brunt of the attack of the officials. Although there is the shadow of Jinyiwei in this matter, in the eyes of those officials, it is not King Zhang Yan who really makes the decision, but Wang Shu.
The next day, 14 thousand households in Beiping City dispatched 8,000 people, accounting for half of the entire Jinyi Guard in the capital, after these people left the capital, they were in a group of five people, a team of ten people, scattered towards the Ming Dynasty in all directions.
On the third day of November in the first year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, Jin Yiwei commanded Zhang Ru to personally supervise the beheading, and cut off the heads of 24 officials at the entrance of the vegetable market.
A vigorous anti-corruption operation officially kicked off with the landing of three to five hundred heads.
Dongchang Fanzi followed, they were nominally to help Jinyiwei with errands, but in fact, they went to make Jinyiwei stumble.
With Zhu Youjiao's Chrysostom first, Qin Ji did not dare to blatantly deal with Zhang Ru, who had just suffered the pain of losing his wife, but dared to secretly deal with Jinyiwei's men and horses on the pretext of helping Jinyiwei.
The confrontation between Dongchang and Jinyiwei is also secretly clash in this anti-corruption operation, every day officials fall off the horse, and people are beheaded every day.
