Chapter 308: A Different Mind

"Congratulations, my lord, things are finally getting a little bit clear, my lord is really clever!" Coming to Luo Sigong's side with a smile, Dang Han saluted Luo Sigong and said with compliments in his tone.

Staring at Dang Han for a while, Luo Sigong shook his head with a smile, and said in a deep voice: "After so many years, how can you learn to pat on the back?" There are too many people who pat me on the back, and you are not the only one missing. After a slight sigh, Luo Sigong sighed softly, and said in a rather helpless tone: "Knowing that people are in Zhangjiakou, we can breathe a sigh of relief." But if you can't catch someone, it's even more difficult. ”

Looking at Luo Sigong with sparkling eyes, Dang Han slowly knelt on the ground, touching his head to the ground but not speaking.

didn't go to see Dang Han, Luo Sigong kept stroking the jade wrench in his hand, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little depressing. After a long time, Luo Sigong slowly walked back to the chair, glanced at Dang Han who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a serious tone: "You haven't done such a thing for many years, let's talk about it!" As a rule, I'll listen to what you say now, and if I don't agree, I'll leave everything you say here. ”

Kowtowing to Luo Sigong, Dang Han seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said in a rather low tone: "My lord, all of us here are our own people, so let's kill those three families!" If we can't find Huang Taiji in the future, the emperor will also explain it. If Huang Taiji is caught, the credit is still the adult's. ”

Luo Sigong's expression did not change in the slightest, but the hand stroking the ring became faster and faster, obviously his heart was not as calm as it seemed.

The lights of the room kept beating, and Dang Han's face was serious, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light. The two women standing behind Luo Sigong all looked at Dang Han in a daze, obviously the two of them had not seen his current appearance.

After a long time, Luo Sigong stood up with a smile. said in a deep voice: "Dang Han, you have been with me for more than ten years, and you know a lot about the things up and down in the Ming Dynasty." Let me ask you one thing, do you know why there is a Jinyi Guard, and the emperor still uses Dongchang? Why are the eunuchs sent to various places? Our Jinyi Guard is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven. Why doesn't the emperor use us? ”

Listening to Luo Sigong's words, Dang Han was stunned. Although he has been in Jinyiwei for many years, he really hasn't thought about such a thing. Shaking his head slowly, Dang Han said in a deep voice: "I don't know about my humble position, please give me advice." ”

"The Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, and the predecessor of Jinyiwei was the "Gongwei Division" set up by Emperor Taizu, which was later renamed the "Pro-Army Governor's Mansion", which governed the Yiluan Division and was in charge of the emperor's honor guard and guards. Fifteen years of Hongwu. The pro-army Governor's Mansion and the Yiluan Division were abolished, and the Jinyi Guard was replaced. Since the Ming Dynasty saw it, Jinyiwei has existed. However, in the twentieth year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu ordered the burning of Jinyiwei's torture equipment, and the prisoners were transferred to the Criminal Department for trial. At the same time, he ordered that all the inner and outer prisons should be tried by the three legal divisions, and the Jinyiwei was abolished. First the Jinyi Guard, and then the Jinyi Guard, do you know why? He looked at Dang Han expressionlessly. Luo Sigong asked in a soft tone.

Although Luo Sigong's voice and tone were very calm, Dang Han felt cold all over his body. Touching the ground with his head again, he said respectfully: "I don't know." ”

"The reason for setting up the Jinyiwei is very simple, because the emperor needs it, and the reason for abolishing the Jinyiwei is also very simple, because the emperor doesn't need it anymore." Luo Sigong's tone gradually became cold, and he said in a low voice.

Dang Han, who was kneeling on the ground, was slightly cold. He also knew some things during the Hongwu period, and Emperor Hongwu did a lot of things with Jinyiwei. There are not a few people who died in the hands of Jinyiwei, most of them were heroes of the year, and this was the first time in history that Jinyiwei played a role. Later, because Jinyiwei interfered with the judiciary and interfered with the normal operation of the country. and abolished the brocade guards. Luo Sigong's statement is naturally very thorough and even more shocking.

Without looking at Dang Han, Luo Sigong gently blew the wrench on his hand, and said indifferently: "After the Jingjing, Emperor Chengzu once again restored the Jinyi Guard, and is ready to reuse the Jinyi Guard. But then it became the East Factory, do you know why? ”

Dang Han was stunned again, he naturally didn't understand these things, and he didn't know why Luo Sigong was talking to him. However, he still shook his head lightly, and said in a respectful tone: "I don't know. ”

"Because Emperor Chengzu wanted to reuse the Jinyi Guard, he set up the East Factory to supervise the Jinyi Guard, and the East Factory was ruled by the eunuchs trusted by the emperor." Glancing at Dang Han, Luo Sigong said in a deep voice: "Don't you understand?" Then I'll get it to the point. What do you think of all the responsibilities of the East Factory if all the responsibilities of the East Factory are handed over to Jinyiwei? ”

Suddenly shuddered, Dang Han said respectfully: "Lord Hui, I understand my humble position!" ”

Nodding with satisfaction, Luo Sigong said with a smile: "Yes, it's not in vain that I value you!" Let's talk about it! ”

"If only Jinyiwei does not have the East Factory, then Jinyiwei will have no restraint and too much power. If the emperor is deceived, I'm afraid that no one in Jinyiwei will be able to restrain him. Therefore, Emperor Chengzu established the East Factory and used the closest eunuchs around the emperor to rule the East Factory. If the eunuchs deceived Shengcong, the emperor could kill him with a holy edict, and Emperor Chengzu thought that the eunuchs were far less in trouble than Jinyiwei. Dang Han's voice trembled a little, but he still said what he thought.

Smiling indifferently, Luo Sigong said in a deep voice: "It's also right or not, Emperor Chengzu does have such thoughts, but it's not all the reasons. The establishment of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the emperor has two forces to rely on. If the East Factory is not good, there will be Jinyiwei, and if Jinyiwei is not good, there will be the East Factory, which is why the East Factory and Jinyiwei have been fighting since their birth. What is the competition? It's just who the emperor values! ”

seemed to understand what Luo Sigong meant, but didn't seem to understand, Dang Han looked at Luo Sigong with some hesitation.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Luo Sigong said in a deep voice: "I won't tell you this, let's just say it!" It doesn't matter if Jinyiwei and Dongchang do something wrong, even if they kill the wrong person, even if they kill innocents indiscriminately. The emperor's East Factory, the emperor's Jinyi Guard, as long as they do things for the emperor, they can't do too much. This is the Jinyiwei and the usual special place, and there is another thing you have to remember that the emperor wants to use the Jinyiwei, which is Dongchang, not me Luo Sigong, nor the Wei Dynasty. We can do anything, but we can't deceive the emperor. Civil officials can, we can't. This time the matter is played truthfully, even if Huang Taiji can't be caught by then, the emperor will only charge us with ineffective work. The most serious thing is just the dismissal of officials, and it is not a bad thing to go home to retire. But I really want to do what you said, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and there are many people who want to bring down me and Wei Chao and climb up. With a slight flick of his sleeves, Luo Sigong strode out.

In the conference hall, Luo Sigong sat on a chair, sipping tea, and didn't say a word. Sitting next to him was Liu Fenghua, the head of the East Factory, who was also like water and didn't say a word.

After a short time, Dang Han walked in slowly from outside, with a smile on his face, gently shaking the folding fan, and he couldn't see the slightest abnormality.

Nodding with satisfaction, Luo Sigong signaled to Dang Han that he didn't need to give a salute, and said with a smile: "Since you're here, then sit down!" After Dang Han sat down, Luo Sigong's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Dang Qianhu, you can tell Liu Qianhu about the matter!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Bowing to Luo Sigong, Dang Han looked at Liu Fenghua on the side again, and said in a deep voice: "Jinyi Wei secretly reported that the three of Huang Taiji are indeed in Zhangjiakou, and we should think about how to catch him next." ”

Nodding noncommittally, Liu Fenghua took a sip of tea lightly and did not speak.

Dang Han glanced at Liu Fenghua, then looked at Luo Sigong, and then turned his gaze to Liu Fenghua's face.

Smiling indifferently, Liu Fenghua said indifferently: "This incident not only involves Jinyiwei, but also our East Factory. Although he has worked in Jinyiwei, Father-in-law Wei trusts him, and Father-in-law Wei entrusts him to handle matters related to his family's life! So Lord Luo, although I admire you as a person, there are some things that I hope you can bring with you, after all, the humble position is also on behalf of Father-in-law Wei. ”

Slightly stunned, Dang Han didn't understand what Liu Fenghua meant, so he looked at Luo Sigong.

Gently putting down the teacup in his hand, Luo Sigong said indifferently: "Whether you Dongchang or our Jinyiwei, we are all on an errand for the emperor, and I don't want to hide it from you." Don't say it's you, even your father-in-law Wei is not worth hiding from me, what do you think you are. ”

Glancing at Liu Fenghua coldly, Luo Sigong said in a cold tone: "Gonggong Wei didn't send you to be angry, because you used to be my subordinate, so you came to listen." If you were really good, then I wouldn't be here myself! I was transferred to the East Factory and didn't grow up, which is really a shame for our Jinyiwei. ”

"Humble duty is not interesting to others, the priority of the matter is naturally understood, but if there is any more arrest and interrogation, I hope the adult can inform the humble position. If you hit the car twice, it's not good! Liu Fenghua smiled at Luo Sigong and said in a soft tone.

Dang Han on the side was stunned, and now he understood what Luo Sigong said to him.

"Okay, in that case, Liu Qianhu, tell me your opinion!" Looking at Liu Fenghua, Luo Sigong said indifferently.

"My lord, if you make sure that the three people are in Zhangjiakou, things will be much easier. If you want to catch three people, the matter will fall on the heads of those merchants. Liu Fenghua's face remained unchanged at all, and he said softly.
