Today's weekend, come to more recommended tickets, and wait for a more!

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Zhu Youzhen's mind was full of clues, it was like a mess, and he had to do too much, too much! In the previous life, because he couldn't tolerate a little sand in his eyes, the frequent change of ministers was also rare in all dynasties, and in this life, he no longer paid too much attention to these ministers! The dynasty is already decaying, and it really doesn't make much sense to hope for these mediocre people!

He wants to save this mansion that is on the verge of collapse by himself, which requires him to become an iron-blooded emperor, and even more to become an iron-blooded prime minister! He wants to highly centralize the power of the prime minister and the imperial power!

"Wang Chengen, let Xu Yingyuan come to see me!" Zhu Youzhen shouted angrily at Wang Chengen!

Wang Chengen was taken aback, thinking that the emperor was angry and wanted to reuse Xu Yingyuan, this is the leader of the eunuch party! Although it is hidden deeply, the emperor has known about this matter for a long time!

However, Wang Chengen didn't say anything, at this time, it was inconvenient for him to say anything! Agreed, bowed out.

As soon as Wang Chengen went out, Zhu Youzhen made a move and recruited another of his personal eunuchs, Yang Siqing! "You go and recruit Cao Huachun and Xu Xianchun too!"

Yang Siqing was rarely sent by the emperor himself, and he happily agreed! Although he is almost the same age as Wang Chengen, he is Wang Chengen's nominal godson, and he is obviously one level lower than Wang Chengen's seniority, and the seniority among the eunuchs has really reached a terrifying point, especially in the hands of Wei Zhongxian, who made all the eunuchs almost like an army! Everyone is a part of the system, it's hard to separate, it's hard to get ahead! Unless, he has the support of the emperor behind him!

Zhu Youzhen can't kill all the eunuchs at once! It's against his nature! He doesn't have a murderous nature in his nature! But he has decided not to recruit eunuchs anymore, and the history of eunuchs in China, he intends to end it from his own hands! This is a race that is contrary to the way of heaven! There should be no need to save zài anymore!

On the one hand, Zhu Youzhen intends not to increase the number of eunuchs, so that the eunuch system will end! On the other hand, Zhu Youzhen plans to make good use of these people! These people, after all, are loyal to the emperor! Without the royal family, these people are the most pitiful group of people! What's more, at present, with his own connections, he almost does not have a group to support himself! If you rashly reduce the eunuch power completely! That will push these forces to other places, and the forces that are not used by the imperial power will become hostile forces of the imperial power! The various factions in the court, no matter how powerful, are superficially attached to the side of the imperial power!

Xu Xianchun, Cao Huachun and Xu Yingyuan were ordered to meet each other, all of them were both happy and worried, these days, although the capital was surrounded! The emperor personally led the army and the people to fight against the Eight Banners, and relaxed the matter of integrating Dongchang and Jinyiwei, but none of the three of them were idle, since Wei Zhongxian and Kebaba were placed under house arrest by the emperor in Wei Zhongxian's own mansion! Dongchang and Jinyiwei present a leaderless situation, that is, fortunately, the emperor let these three Wei Zhongxian's former celebrities to rectify Dongchang and Jinyiwei, if they change others, this huge mess will definitely be impossible to start!

"How? Have all the Dongchang and Jinyi Guards, as well as the secret agents and secret personnel in Wei Zhongxian's hands, sorted out the list? "Zhu Youzhen is not beating around the bush! The crisis of the Eight Banners Army has temporarily receded, and it has also made the imperial power more stable! The young emperor is very imposing!

The three of them glanced at each other, and Xu Xianchun, who had the longest seniority, opened his mouth first, "The words of the old slave back to the Long Live Lord have all been sorted out, except for a small number of Da Nei masters, who were secretly sent by Gonggong Wei himself, and his subordinates have no way of knowing, the list here has almost included the list of personnel from the capital division and the locality, and there should be nine out of ten!" ”

Zhu Youzhen snorted and said quietly, "Wei Zhongxian also got a secret faction of people who don't even know about the three of you?" ”

Xu Xianchun groaned, "At least the old slave knows that there are the Flying Eagle Thirteen Taibao and the Wild Wolf Fourteen Guard!" These people also have some secret sects in their hands, and the total number of them is between three or four hundred, and most of them are strong in martial arts! Although the number of people is less than one-tenth of the total number of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, it is worth half of the strength of Dongchang and Jinyiwei! Five years after entering the Apocalypse, these people are all under the direct control of Gonggong Wei, and even the old slaves don't know where these people are now? Moreover, whether Gonggong Wei later increased and expanded these people, the old slaves really don't know, and the emperor is aware of it. ”

Zhu Youzhen's heart was shocked and angry! Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian, no wonder you look like you are at home all day long! You really can't arbitrarily kill this old gelding! If you kill this guy without permission, then these big inner eagle dogs will have no line to recover them! It's like a bunch of kites with broken strings! Over time, they will become united with the people they are watching, forming one force after another that is difficult to control! The whole country will also fall apart in fact! I will no longer have the means to restrain this dynasty that has rotted to the point of home!

If the local army is completely unmobilized! Local taxes can't be collected at all! Then the Central Plains and the southwest, northwest, northeast, and most of the Ming regions are not under their control! This is the situation in my last life! It's just a small amount of the Gyeonggi region and a small amount of the rich Jiangnan area, and just like that, it's just 17 years!

In the original history, many people believed that the series of actions of the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen to sweep away the eunuchs was successful! However, it is precisely for these reasons that he failed! It was because when the eunuchs were swept away at that time, they were too vigorous and resolute, and they were completely stiff! Many remnants lurked until the end of the dynasty and were not found! If you don't use it for yourself, you will become the hostile side of the imperial power, this is a very obvious truth, feudal dynasty, imperial power supremacy! No forces other than the imperial power are allowed to compete with it! This is the essential core of feudal kingship!

Just because of Zhu Youzhen's previous way of pulling and dragging, although Wei Zhongxian and several big bosses were eradicated! But one, Zhu Youzhen did not get the huge wealth he had stored from Wei Zhongxian! Second, I didn't get a part of the spy system formed by Wei Zhongxian's careful management for more than ten years from Wei Zhongxian!

If the eunuchs of Dongchang are less essence and more dross, for the emperor, being able to completely and effectively control the Jinyi guard must be a matter of having more essence and less dross! Because from the analysis of the composition of personnel, the complete goal of eunuchs is not only promotion, but also for money, and promotion is also for money, and what eunuchs love most must be money! Jinyiwei is a little different, although he is also greedy for money, he is greedy for money, but the promotion of status is also what they yearn for!

"I won't mention this beforehand! I have asked you to come today, which is my trust in the three of you! I'm going to leave a big thing to the three of you! Zhu Youzhen said earnestly.

It was the first time for the three of them to see the emperor talking to themselves so kindly, and they were all happy at the same time! The minds of eunuchs are often more delicate than those of women! In addition to money, what they desire most is to gain the emperor's mercy!

"The old slaves must go to the soup for the emperor!" The three old eunuchs kowtowed at the same time, this time they all kowtowed loudly, and at first glance, they were a lot more sincere!

Zhu Youzhen nodded, "This list, I will take it first!" You have gathered all the personnel of Dongchang and Jinyiwei in Beijing! Come to Chengqian Palace to gather! I have something big to send you! ”

Xu Xianchun arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, many of these people are secretly sent to various ministers' homes, are they all gathered?" ”

The Emperor smiled slightly, "Your so-called secret sect, according to me, it is not a secret at all!" Otherwise, I won't let the three of you know! You say don't you? The real secret is the list in Wei Zhongxian's hand! Since it's not a secret, just let them come back, these people are all experienced, you should reassign them and re-infiltrate and send them out! ”

The three of them glanced at each other, if this was the emperor who wanted to re-strengthen the control of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, it would be understandable! After all, losing control over the officials of the Beijing Division in the short term is not a big deal!

All three of them kowtowed at the same time, "Do the will of God." ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled and nodded, "The loyalty of the three of them, I know it in my heart!" Let you gather all the people and horses, I want to reuse and integrate these people! In addition, I will add some new people appropriately, and in the future, the three of you will assist me and personally manage the system of the Statistics Bureau! This time, the mission is to demolish part of the palace! Reducing the size of the Imperial Palace, I plan to sell some of the Imperial Palace land as a way to raise funds for the national treasury! Let the eunuchs of Dongchang be responsible for the demolition and relocation projects, and let Jinyiwei be responsible for the demolition projects on the periphery, the ministers of the province always say that you don't do your job! ”

All three of them were shocked! Although they all probably knew the bottom in their hearts, most of the time the emperor came to them for this matter, but when the emperor really said it now, it also surprised the three of them! Because their first reaction, like Wang Chengen, thought that the emperor was just an empty cannon to gather the hearts of the officials and the people, but they didn't expect the emperor to really do this!

The emperor's plan successfully diverted the suspicion that the three people had always been on guard against the emperor's intention to use them openly and secretly! Because, such a thing as demolishing the palace is really too big! Everyone has to look away, their own lives, when compared with such a big news as the demolition of the palace, is really not worth mentioning!

The three of them were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to say, or Cao Huachun's courage was a little bigger, "Your Majesty, this is not appropriate, right?" If you lack money, you can find another way, there is no need to wronged the emperor! How can you make the old slaves feel at ease? The old slave Cao Huachun didn't dare to hide his secrets, the old slave saved more than 30,000 taels of silver and was willing to hand it over to the emperor! ”

Cao Huachun thought that the emperor said this to the three of them in order to test the loyalty of the three of them! At this time, even if he wears the hat of corruption, he has to donate silver! This is when good steel is used on the cutting edge!

Sure enough, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen laughed! "Gonggong Cao is really loyal! Faithfulness is commendable! More than those hundred officials, I can understand my will! ”

Xu Xianchun took a look, "Your Majesty, the old slave should die, the old slave has also saved some silver over the years!" The old slave is willing to donate 40,000 taels! ”

In fact, whether it is 30,000 or 40,000, for these eunuchs who have been in power for many years, it is only less than one-tenth of the property! But donating silver to the emperor is to be measured, donating too much, making the emperor unhappy, and the heart says why are you so greedy? If you donate too little, it will also make the emperor unhappy! The heart said, why do you donate so much? What about sending Hanako?

These three great eunuchs are all human spirits, so they can naturally grasp this balance very well!

Sure enough, the emperor's dragon face is happy! "Get up, get even! All three of them get up! Father-in-law Cao and Father-in-law Xu are generally loyal! Xu Yingyuan, you followed me in the Xinwang Mansion, I know that you don't have any silver, you don't have to donate! During this time, you will be in charge of everything in Jinyiwei! Work hard! ”

Cao Huachun and Xu Xianchun were shocked, where is this harder thing! Emperor, do you think he's hard? What a power you've given to this guy all at once! It is clear that Dongchang can restrain Jinyiwei, but in fact, Jinyiwei has more power! Jinyiwei is spread all over the country, the distribution is far more than the East Factory, and the number of people is far more than the East Factory, Jinyiwei said that it is about 6,000 people, in fact, it has already exceeded 10,000 people!

Xu Yingyuan was overjoyed when he heard this! I didn't expect this big pie to suddenly fall into my arms! It's a joy of heart! "Your Majesty, although the old slave doesn't have any silver, at least he has to be interesting! The old slave is willing to donate 20,000 taels of silver, Your Majesty, do you really want to demolish the palace? For such a big matter, should you discuss it with the officials? ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen smiled and waved his hand, "There are three henchmen who are so loyal to me!" I have more confidence in doing things! Discuss with them, what can be accomplished? ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Even though there was still unhappiness just now, and Xu Yingyuan was bloodlessly snatched to the most advantageous position, but at this moment, Cao Huachun and Xu Xianchun were still very satisfied, what is more precious than the emperor's trust?

Originally, they were all people who were going to be eradicated together as Wei Zhongxian's eunuchs!
