Chapter 331

Although Liu Jin said these words with a serious and calm expression, his heart was pounding, and he tried his best to hide his nervousness, but the slightly trembling muscles on his cheeks still exposed his heart. He was waiting for Song Nan's reaction, it stands to reason that his purpose could not be hidden from Song Nan, and the reason why he felt nervous was because of Song Nan's methods and influence in front of the emperor.

If Song Nan finds an irrefutable reason, it is difficult to say whether Zhengde will continue to agree to his suggestion, after all, Song Nan still has a status in the emperor's mind. If it weren't for himself and a few of his subordinates instilling in the emperor's ears the idea of restricting Song Nan from expanding the Jinyi Guard, if it weren't for Song Nan's recent reaction being too eye-catching, Zhengde might not even mention this matter, let alone talk to Song Nan about it in person today.

"Ha Lu, haha, ......" Song Nan smiled and stroked his palms.

"What's wrong? Lord Song, isn't our family thoughtful? Liu Jin asked.

Song Nan shook his head and smiled: "Thoughtful, it's just too thoughtful, Gonggong Liu is not a leader of the inner court, why didn't I think of this method Song Nan?" In this way, the communication between the factory and the guard will be smooth, and there will be no black and white jokes, which is very good and creative. ”

Liu Jin didn't know whether Song Nan was saying the opposite or the right thing, so he cautiously asked: "In this way, does Lord Song disagree with my suggestion?" ”

Song Nan said: "What am I against? This is a good thing for the imperial court, why should I object? What are my reasons for objecting? ”

Liu Jin was overjoyed, patted his thigh and said: "It's still Lord Song who is decisive, but whenever it is beneficial to the imperial court, he will make a decisive decision, and he will never drag the mud and water, which is what I Liu Jin admires most about you." Your Majesty, the slave and maid just said it, Lord Song will definitely agree. ”

Zhengde's expression was a little worried, he didn't believe that Song Nan would not see that this was a weakening of his rights, he thought that Song Nan would definitely oppose this move, but he didn't expect Song Nan to accept it, which was indeed quite unexpected.

"That...... Song Nan, after all, this matter is a major matter involving your Jinyi Guard's yamen, don't you think about it lively? ”

Zhengde couldn't help but remind Song Nan that although Liu Jin said that it was extremely necessary to establish a new Yamen General Factory, and vaguely used Song Nan's expansion of Jinyiwei and marriage with the British Gong to remind himself to limit Song Nan's rights, Zhengde himself also felt that it was necessary to control Song Nan's momentum, but so smoothly obtaining Song Nan's consent made Zhengde feel that he had bullied Song Nan.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows the emperor's thoughts, and the emperor is afraid that the ministers will be dissatisfied with the weakening of the power and responsibility of the Jinyi Guard; The emperor doesn't have to think so, to be honest, the minister has always felt tired, the affairs of the Jinyi Guard Yamen are complicated, and the minister is tired enough, and he really wants to be able to unload some of the burdens on his shoulders. If it weren't for the words that the emperor said when he appointed the minister as the commander of the Jinyi Guard that day, the minister was afraid of disappointing the emperor's trust, and I am afraid that he would have proposed to resign from the post of commander long ago; Now that Gonggong Liu can make such a good suggestion, it is too late for the minister to be happy. ”

Zhengde hurriedly said: "If you can think so, I will be relieved." But the commander of Jinyi Wei will not allow you to resign, Liu Jin wants to reopen the West Factory, first, you can lead the factory and the guard to coordinate unifiedly, and second, you can divide some rights and responsibilities in the past, you can rest and recuperate, and you don't have to go into the palace to play and talk with me, let's be like before, isn't it good? ”

Song Nan smiled like a flower on his face, but his heart was cold, Zhengde may have made a slip of the tongue, but such a clear proposal to divide some power and responsibility between himself obviously exposed his inner thoughts. The support of this idea is either Liu Jin's slander, or some of his own behaviors have touched Zhengde's heart, causing some disgust or vigilance in Zhengde; The princess's marriage is a reason, since then, Song Nan has popped up this idea from time to time in his heart, but today this thought is even stronger, and Song Nan is more convinced that the regression he made today is the right choice.

Originally, Song Nan planned to get a suitable harvest in exchange even if he regressed, but now, it is obvious that he can't have this thought; Seeing that Liu Jin succeeded, but he couldn't fight back, Song Nan's heart was racing, and suddenly what Zhang Yongye said the day before yesterday came to his heart.

"Lord Song, Liu Jin is too arbitrary, even if Gao Feng, Wei Bin and Ma Yongcheng are Liu Jin's henchmen, there are also scolding mothers behind their backs, this person will betray his relatives and ......leave sooner or later."

This passage was when Song Nan asked Zhang Yong about the pattern in the court, Zhang Yong said it himself, Song Nan didn't care at that time, he always thought that Zhang Yong hated Liu Jin, but at this moment, this may be a pertinent remark to Liu Jin.

Thinking of what happened to Zhang Yong, he was originally the right and left hand of the prince with Liu Jin, but he was only given the position of a royal supervisor without any contradictions, and then thought about Qiu Ju's death, Liu Jin's absolute confidant, Gao Feng, the celebrant and supervisor, wanted to take over the position of the East Factory, but was ruthlessly rejected by Liu Jin, and he sat in the position of the supervisor of the East Factory, which made Gao Feng muttered in private for many days; Song Nan has heard all these things.

This is not the case between himself and Liu Jin, Liu Jin was a saddle before he gained power, but now he is a mortal enemy, the reason why he can still mix smoothly is not only because of the strong enough relationship with Zhengde, but also because of his understanding of Liu Jin, and he did not put the treasure on Liu Jin.

Liu Jin is a person who can only share weal and bene, not wealth and nobility, there is no doubt about this.

Song Nan's heart lit up, and a plan came to his mind, although he didn't know if it would work, but at this point, he always had to give it a go.

"Your Majesty, Gonggong Liu, I have no opinion at all, if I heard correctly, Gonggong Liu wants to re-establish the West Factory, which can not only strengthen the intensity of intelligence investigation inside and outside Beijing, but also the General Commander of the West Factory, the East Factory and the Jinyi Guard Yamen, to play a unified and coordinated effect, right?"

Liu Jin smiled and said, "That's what our family means." ”

Song Nan said: "Genius idea! But I think it's a bit out of order. ”

Liu Jin was stunned and said, "How is it not in accordance with the rules?" ”

Song Nan said: "As far as I know, there seems to be a precedent for opening the West Factory during the Chenghua period, but the West Factory at that time did not have the power and responsibility of the general leader of the factory and the guard, and the West Factory was still nominally a detective department. ”

Zhengde said: "Really? Liu Jin, why didn't you tell me this? ”

Liu Jin rolled his eyes and said, "What are you afraid of?" The emperor's decree gave it a function. And what does it matter? ”

Song Nan shook his head and said: "No, the emperor doesn't know the mouths of those civil officials in the outer court, they are worried that there is nothing to make a fuss, the West Factory was banned because it was too ostentatious, and it is no longer very in line with the rules to reopen the book, let alone give it greater responsibilities, is the emperor willing to see the snowflakes of the recital sent to the desk, and the chatter of complaints and opposition in the morning?" ”

Zhengde said angrily: "Could it be that I can't reopen a west factory?" I don't believe it. ”

Liu Jin sneered: "The officials of the outer court are willing to let them talk about it if they are willing to break their mouths, and it is a big deal that the emperor will teach them some lessons." ”

Song Nan sneered: "Gonggong Liu likes to do a lot of work, obviously there is a better way to avoid conflicts, why do you want to provoke public anger by being tough?" The emperor and the officials of the outer court are not enemies, and the officials are also my officials of the Ming Dynasty, is it a thief? ”

Liu Jin was speechless, and Zhengde raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean, there is another way?" ”

Song Nan nodded and said: "Yes, the minister suggested that there is no need to reopen the West Factory, but to open a new yamen, or it can be called the 'Inner Factory' Yamen, which is specifically responsible for the general consul factory and the yamen, wouldn't it be so that others can't find a reason to object?" ”

Zhengde frowned and nodded: "Open an inner factory?" This is a new idea, Liu Jin, what do you think? ”

Liu Jin thought for a while and said: "The idea is not bad, but after all, there is no pre-system to follow in the inner factory, and the number of horsemen and officials may be restricted. ”

Zhengde frowned and said, "All open?" Isn't there too much manpower, the internal affairs government's financial resources are probably tight, and the ministers are probably complaining about raising so many cavalry servants. ”

Song Nan smiled and said: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, Gonggong Liu will coordinate these things, what are we afraid of raising more 10,000 horsemen in the Ming Dynasty?" Even if you raise hundreds of thousands, you can afford it, Gonggong Liu, do you say yes? ”

Liu Jin didn't know what was wrong with Song Nan, and it was clear that he was bullying him today, and he didn't resist and accepted it, which can also be explained as Song Nan's knowledge of current affairs, but this kid was dizzy, and after sparing the Yamen of the West Factory, he gave away an Inner Factory Yamen for nothing, which is really confusing.

It is necessary to know that it is also an intelligence agency, the more the yamen is set up, the more the importance of the Jinyi Wei Yamen will be diluted, as long as the strength of the inner court is constantly filled, within a few years, the Jinyi Wei Yamen may become a chicken rib, and Song Nan will also return to his hometown.

Although Liu Jin muttered a little in his heart, when he thought about it, it was obvious that he had taken a big advantage today, so why should he be suspicious, and when he saw Song Nan smiling at him stupidly, he also responded with a smile; The two are like a pair of best friends, laughing innocently and thoughtlessly at each other.
