Chapter 198: My Great Ming Shouldn't Die
After purchasing the first batch of Jinyi Guards and Eagle Guards, Li Mu set out to replace the Jinyi Guards guarding the Imperial City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first to be replaced were the hundred brocade guards who guarded the main gate of the imperial city and were on duty day and night at the noon gate.
The remaining two hundred brocade guards were replaced by some of them under Li Mu's order, and they were responsible for guarding the brocade guards of the Fengtian Temple of the Imperial Court.
It wasn't until Li Mu was inside that he replaced all the Jinyi guards who were responsible for guarding the imperial city and the palace with the Jinyi Guards and Eagle Guards directly under him, that he extended his tentacles to the other guards.
In the past two months, Li Mu, with the cooperation of Wei Zhongxian, gradually replaced the other guards of the pro-army.
A total of 5,000 brocade guards were used.
The reason is that Wei Zhongxian took advantage of Zhu Youxiao's long-term illness and confusion to ask for the holy decree of various reasons to transfer the guards and troops out of the imperial city and guard the gates of various parts of the capital instead.
Replace all the Imperial City guard duties with brocade guards to guard.
Of course, there were doubts about this, but with Zhu Youxiao's holy purpose, the commanders of the other guards did not dare to go to the emperor for confirmation.
I had to hand over the duties of the guards of the imperial city and replace them with the people of the brocade guard, that is, Li Mu's brocade guard eagle guard.
Of course, Li Mu did not control the entire imperial city at once, but slowly encroached on the authority of the other guards in two months.
In the past two months, Li Mu has completely gained control of the imperial city, and the incumbents of Jinyiwei in various parts of the Ming Dynasty have also arrived in the capital.
Not much, the scale of more than 2,000 people, after all, many Jinyiwei secret agents have a mission on their bodies, and they can't reveal their identities to come to the Jinyiwei capital headquarters.
However, there are also some overdue arrivals, and there are many reasons to find when they arrive.
When Li Mu was in front of these Jinyi guards who came from all over the world, he cut off the heads of these Jinyi guards who had various reasons and violated his orders.
Let those Jinyi guards who have never seen Li Mu have the mark of the commander in their hearts, and firmly remember that the orders he gave are not child's play.
Among the beheaded Jinyi guards, there are many middle-level officials of the Jinyi Guards at the level of deputy thousand households and hundreds of households.
Among them, there are also thousands of households, and they are not spared.
Seeing that thousands of households Li Mu were killed, these Jinyi guards who went to Beijing couldn't help but be afraid.
See the killing of the power to stand.
Li Mu handed over the task of training to the Jingjin Yiwei to the Eagle Guard, who he was personally in charge of, to be responsible for the daily training of the Jinyi Guard.
In addition, Li Mu also ordered Jinyiwei's intelligence system to start spying on the Shanhaiguan generation and Shanxi region to obtain the news and intelligence he wanted for Li Mu.
In order to be on the safe side, Li Mu also asked Wei Zhongxian to order the fans of the East Factory to assist from the side.
After all, in the past seven years, Jinyiwei has been repeatedly suppressed by the East Factory in charge of Wei Zhongxian, and the personnel intelligence ability has shrunk.
In terms of current ability, Dongchang is many times more powerful than Jinyiwei, after all, the Ming Dynasty has eunuchs in the army and local places to control some important positions.
It's also much easier to get information.
All the arrangements were carried out in an orderly manner, and Wei Zhongxian would go to the Jinyi Guard to command the envoy after a while and report to Li Mu that there were signs of the activities of the Zhu royal family.
In particular, the focus is on the object, Zhu Youxiao's brother Xinwang.
However, in addition to being busy with the affairs of Jinyiwei, Li Mu will also put his feelings aside, and occasionally go back to the palace to Jiaotai Hall to enhance his feelings with the beauty queen.
With the entire Imperial City and Imperial Palace replaced with the Jinyi Guard, Li Mu no longer had to avoid suspicion when he entered the palace's harem.
It's just that no matter how airtight the wall is, there will be a few words flowing out of the palace, so that the people in the market will circulate among the people, and after a long time, the ministers will also hear some rumors.
Fortunately, the entire court was under the harsh control of Wei Zhongxian, and the ministers didn't have the heart to pay attention to it, which was rumored to be a affair from the harem.
Instead, they live in fear every day, some of them are thinking about how to tie up the nine thousand years old in order to get a bigger official position, and those officials who think they are clear are thinking about how to fight with Wei Zhongxian in the court.
However, the leakage of rumors also made Li Mu vigilant, and for the sake of the name of the beautiful queen, he was about to prepare to purge the eunuchs and maids in the palace.
But it made people take the lead.
As a loyal dog, Wei Zhongxian has a heart to relieve his worries, and after hearing the rumors about Li Mu and the queen, he killed those palace maids and eunuchs who couldn't control their tongues.
And in front of all the eunuchs and palace maids, he was killed with a living rod.
After killing those eunuchs and palace maids with a cane, Wei Zhongxian gloomily warned the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace that they had nothing to control their tongues and not to talk nonsense.
Wei Zhongxian's methods were very effective, and no one dared to chew the root of his ears from then on.
After a long time, Li Mu, who often went in and out of the palace, seemed to have become half the master of the harem.
Let these eunuchs and palace maids who walk around the palace gradually become accustomed to it, and there is no longer any nonsense.
.....
Time always flies quickly, counting from Li Mu taking over as the commander of Jinyiwei, more than three months have passed in a hurry.
At this time, Li Mu was commanding the envoy in Jinyiwei to check the information sent from Shanhaiguan and Shanxi.
The more I looked at Li Mu, the more frightened I became, during the dictatorship of Wei Zhongxian, although Liaodong had a lot of military affairs, it was still saved.
However, the calamity located in the territory of the Ming Dynasty has reached the time of terminal illness, and it is necessary to use fierce medicine to see the effect.
Take a break from the imminent collapse of the Ming Dynasty.
The reason why the word suspension is used is because Li Mu knew that natural disasters continued during the Chongzhen period, accompanied by plagues and man-made disasters.
It is difficult to say that if there is no Li Mu's existence, there is no way to return to heaven in the history of the Ming Dynasty.
Especially natural disasters are not terrible, man-made disasters are the most terrible, for Li Mu, the dictatorship of eunuchs has advantages and disadvantages, and the rights of the eunuchs come from the emperor.
The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty can be said to be the most backbone and ideal and ambitious group of eunuchs in all dynasties, although there will be those who are reluctant, most of them are the most loyal royal guards.
History records that the last defender of the Ming Dynasty was not a general, not a scholar who shouted loyalty and patriotism all day long.
It was the group of rootless eunuchs who were spurned and accompanied the king of the Ming Dynasty to do it, the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and the king died.
This is a dynasty with a lot of backbone from the king to the eunuch, but there are no scholars.
Judging from the information sent by Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the Ming merchants controlled by the Donglin Party are gradually encroaching on the national system of the entire country.
It won't be long before the entire Ming Dynasty will be eaten by the businessmen behind the Donglin Party like termites bursting the embankment.
At that time, with the help of an external force, the entire seemingly powerful and prosperous Daming will collapse in an instant.
Putting down the information in his hand, Li Mu couldn't help but rub his temples, saving Da Ming was a thankless task, it was better to be a happy smuggler in the narrow sense of time and space.
Why wade into this troubled water?
After thinking about it, Li Mu finally found a reason to convince himself that the Ming Dynasty was the last feudal dynasty of the Central Plains nation.
Thinking that in the hundreds of years after the Jurchen entered the customs, the Central Plains nation would always be in a backward era.
Li Mu put his hand on the desk and sighed: "Forget it, let's realize the dream that the plane can't come true, and besides, the beauty queen doesn't want the Ming Dynasty to perish." ”
At this time, Li Mu saw a captain walk in, as if he had something to report to him. (To be continued.) )
