The first wind and rain drifted away

Near the middle of the Chengtian Gate of the Imperial City, there is a large building complex, which is the famous Jinyi Wei Yamen of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years.

It is adjacent to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, across the street from the Yamen of the Six Ministries on the east side, and has always been the residence of the core power organs of the Ming Dynasty.

Today, the Jinyi Guard Yamen, which had been low-key for many years, was full of voices and hustle and bustle.

In the martial arts hall, Luo Yangxing, who had just returned from the court, had already changed into his court clothes, and couldn't wait to put on the flying fish suit of the commander of the Jinyi Guard again.

The flying fish suit can be called the best-looking official uniform in history, especially when fighting, it is particularly windy, and many courtiers in the Ming Dynasty kneel and beg the emperor for rewards at every turn.

However, the successive emperors of the Ming Dynasty were more cautious about rewarding the flying fish suit, so the Ming officials used their brains to change the flying fish suit into a python head and fish tail.

The emperor repeatedly ordered that no trespassing was allowed and no indiscriminate wearing, but it could not completely control the love of beauty among Ming officials.

Luo Yangxing paced back and forth on the school field with his hands on his back, looked at some of his subordinates who had just been recruited with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and happily put on the flying fish suit one by one, and stroked the embroidered spring knife in his hand with tears in his eyes.

He understands this, because he has also experienced this kind of feeling.

The embroidered spring knife is a weapon used by Jinyiwei, and the reason why it is so coquettish is because this knife is decorated with gold and silver, and it has a beautiful appearance.

Jinyi Wei served as an errand beside the emperor, as a ritual vessel, and used as an ornament on ceremonies, travel, sacrifices and other occasions.

Of course, no matter how beautiful the knife is, it is also a knife, once you need to fight and kill, the actual combat nature of the embroidered spring knife is also unambiguous.

On the school field, many Jinyi Weiti riding captains who parted ways in the past, one by one, you look at me, I look at you, and even more picked up their waist cards and bit them directly with their teeth to see if they were dreaming.

Seeing that it wasn't a dream, many Jinyi lieutenants couldn't help but hug their heads and cry.

The reason why it is so out of shape is because of cherishing.

In addition to power, it is too difficult for ordinary people to join Jinyiwei.

There are only two ways: one is that the son inherits the father's business, and if the father is a brocade and has made meritorious contributions, the son can inherit this place after his death.

The second is to participate in the martial arts test, take the martial arts examination, and be selected by Jinyiwei as a wrestler, and then slowly work hard to upgrade.

But no matter which path you take, you need to have a certain amount of martial arts.

If you can't fight, why should you be a guard to protect the emperor?

When the emperor wanted to go out to fight, hunt, or travel, he would bring thousands of brocade guards as personal guards.

The emperor wanted to crown his sons as princes, and he would also send a team of brocade guards to escort the princes to their fiefdoms.

In the event of a tight border war, the Jinyi guards will also be transferred to the front line, and they will become regular troops who go into battle to kill the enemy.

In addition, Jinyiwei also has the task of the central inspection team, riding a fast horse to convey the holy decree, picket officials, and inspect the people's situation when there is nothing to do.

So the imperial court obviously has a pedestrian division whose duty is to run errands, so why do you send Jinyi guards to run around?

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's answer was: Qincha, it is inevitable that you will receive some bribes when you go to the local government, and it is better to give this benefit to Jinyiwei than to others.

For such an unreasonable explanation, it can only be said that the grandfather is too fond of Jinyiwei.

But at the same time, it also shows that Jinyiwei is too loyal to the royal family.

Gong Yonggu, who had just taken office, looked at this scene and was also embarrassed.

He could understand the hardships and joys of these brocade captains, as well as their loyalty to the royal family.

Compared to them, it is much easier for the children of Xun Gui to join the Jinyi Guard.

That is, relying on the emperor's reward, eating rice in Jinyiwei and not working, and taking up a post.

There are a lot of such people in Jinyiwei, and letting the country raise him doesn't need him to really contribute.

Of course, Gong Yonggu is not among them, he is here to do practical things.

A group of brocade-clothed guards on the school field cried, laughed, and gradually calmed down, and the original noisy sound gradually fell silent, only the footsteps of Luo Yang.

Luo Yangxing finally stood still, came to them, and looked at the silent former elite subordinates, his heart was surging.

Everything is still the same as it was back then, he seems to have just dreamed a dream, and he is still the commander of the powerful Jinyi Guard.

It's just that there are some unpleasant memories in the dream.

He can't forget that since the disbandment of the Jinyi Guard, the ministers who saw him on weekdays have become arrogant, and some courtiers actually dare to call him around, who can know the sadness in this?

However, it doesn't matter, I'm back!

"Colleagues, do you know why the Son of Heaven reopened the Jinyi Guard?"

Luo Yangxing, who was in a complicated mood, had red eyes, arched his hands in the direction of the palace, and shouted loudly with a hideous face.

The people below immediately looked at each other, they knew what Jinyiwei was doing, but they didn't think about why the Son of Heaven reopened.

Looking at everyone's blank eyes, the afterglow swept slightly over Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses standing below, and the current Jinyi Wei Tongzhi, Luo Yangxing roared angrily.

"This commander tells everyone, because the ministers above the court are corrupt one by one, and they want to eat and take cards!

is still full of food and support every day, and the party fights infighting every day, not doing practical things for the people of the world, and not doing things for the emperor.

The court is now financially strapped and unable to make ends meet, and the emperor is now going to use our brocade guards as this knife to bleed those traitorous ministers who form a party for personal gain!

Knives are used to kill, we should not have thoughts, let alone doubts!

We will kill wherever the emperor points out! This is the only way out for us! ”

Luo Yang, who has been sitting on the cold bench for many years, has a very profound experience, has a high political consciousness, and speaks at a very high level.

It's just that the words are beautiful, but the heart is bitter.

Luo Yangxing understands that there is no turning back when opening the bow!

The successive Jinyi Wei commanders have made it difficult to have a good end, which has almost become a foregone conclusion.

Only by retributing the emperor's thigh to death is the only way to live.

The power of the monarch and the minister needs to be balanced, which is the way of the emperor. Let you have supreme power, and at the same time, it is to make you a lonely minister.

It's a pity, for some reason, Emperor Chongzhen still doesn't believe in himself very much.

Otherwise, there will be no colt and Gong Yong here.

Thinking of this, Luo Yangxing couldn't help but sink a little.

However, thinking that the most important thing at present is to confiscate Zhang Sizhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and convict him within three days, as long as this matter is done, I believe that his status in the emperor's heart will change.

Then, he kept collecting evidence from other courtiers to raid his house, being a mad dog, and seeing who bites whom under the emperor's instructions.

In this regard, Luo Yangxing said that it doesn't matter.

Hate me, huh?

Never mind.

I like to see you look at me even though you can't get used to me, but you can't get rid of me.

"Hundreds of households are out of the queue, discuss!"

Sorting out the details, Luo Yang gave a loud order.
