Chapter 529: Factional Conflict

It's the beginning of July.

Everything was calm in Beijing, and after Zhang Xuan was assigned to Shanxi as the deputy envoy of the Ministry of Inspection, the dispute over the Great Rites Conference temporarily subsided.

In the name of Tang Yin, Zhu Hao reported the accounts of the Daming River workers in the past few years, which did not make any waves for the time being, and Zhu Hao came up with an idea for Zhu Si to give silver to the soldiers of the nine sides of the nine sides of the two taels of silver, and the silver used was the surplus silver after the summer grain was put into storage, and there was also silver that was exchanged for salt, and at the same time, let the northwest check the silver taels owed to the military households in the past few years, and let them make up for it.

Things seem small, but they are very useful for buying people's hearts, and at the same time, they continue to cause problems for the household.

Didn't you say there was no money? Then continue to consume you, let you worry about the silver for the time being, and also make the new emperor deal with the river workers.

At the end of June, a major event also occurred, that is, the mausoleum of Emperor Zhengde was officially named "Kangling", and the righteous Zhongwei was renamed Kanglingwei, responsible for the guard of Kangling.

“…… The weather finally cooled a little, but it still didn't rain this day. ”

Su Xigui invited Zhu Hao to a banquet on this day.

After the opening of the first silver account in the capital, Su Xigui has always wanted to invite Zhu Hao, the behind-the-scenes owner, to drink, but Zhu Hao has always resigned on the grounds that he is busy with official business, and after entering July, the catalog of "Wuzong Records" is also on the right track.

Su Xigui poured tea for Zhu Hao, using chilled tea.

"This is an herbal tea concocted according to the little master...... You taste it, right? ”

Su Xigui looked enthusiastic.

Zhu Hao said: "Lord Su, I heard that the recent purge of the six departments in Nanjing by the Ministry of Officials has begun, you don't want to ask me about related things, right?" ”

When Su Xigui heard this, his eyes instantly widened: "I can't hide anything from the little master, about Huang Gong...... Can there be a whereabouts? I heard that Sun Laoshangshu is already on his way to the capital, and it is estimated that there will be more than ten days...... will arrive in the capital. ”

What Su Xigui hopes is for Huang Zan to become the secretary of the North Household Department.

Hubu is Huang Zhan's home field, and it can bring a lot of benefits to Su Xigui.

Zhu Hao shook his head: "It's a little difficult...... Sun Lao didn't go to the capital, but his prestige was there, and no one could question the appointment of the minister, as for Huang Gong's side...... First of all, make sure that the position of the secretary of the southern household department does not change, if someone wants to transfer him to an errand, or let him be a ......"

"If you are idle...... Be a secretary of the Southern Rite Department? Or is it a ministry? Hehe, as long as it is chic, Huang Gong's health is still healthy, and he can contribute to the court for a few more years. ”

Su Xigui has Huang Zan as a backer and earns a lot of money, and now he has just cooperated with Zhu Hao to open a silver account, and Huang Zan stepped down at a critical moment, which has a great impact on Su Xigui, so he wants to keep Huang Zan at any cost and wait for promotion.

Zhu Hao said: "As far as I know, now some people want to make a fuss about the fact that when His Majesty toured the south, the accounts of the southern household department were not clear, mentioning that a lot of silver and grain deposits in the treasury did not match the accounts, and to put it bluntly, someone wanted to move the deficit of the northern household department to the southern household department, plus Huang Gong had been the right attendant of the northern household department in the past few years, this matter was ......."

"This ...... How can this be? When Huang Gong was in Beihu, he managed more Xuanfu grain and salary, when will it be Huang Gong's turn to intervene in the Taicang warehouse in the capital? The people of the DPRK and China can't do things without paying attention to the rules! ”

When Su Xigui said this, he patted his head, "Well, I already know what kind of temperament they are, if things can be pushed out, they will never take it back, and can you expect them not to shirk their responsibilities indiscriminately?" If the deficit is really not big, the contemptible people can contact some people to make up for it, but I am afraid that this gap will ......"

Zhu Hao looked at Su Xigui.

This old boy's attitude towards things is still different from that towards people.

I heard that there is a deficit, whether it is caused by my own backer or not, I actually want to take the silver and throw it in? You Su Xigui are really good at being a man!

Is your family background comparable to that of the imperial court?

Do you really think that you are rich enough to rival the country?

Zhu Hao said: "It's better to let Huang Gong resolutely push back the accusations, you can't take everything on yourself, people with a discerning eye know that Huang Gong has worked hard to support the household finances in the past few years, if he has to be responsible for everything, wouldn't he take advantage of the wishes of those shameless villains?"

"This year, in order to fill the vacancy of the household department, Xia Yan may add another million salt leads, and even if the southern household department is not short of silver, it will lead as much salt as possible to the south."

Su Xigui pondered for a while, but didn't understand what Zhu Hao meant for a while.

"It's to let the south and the north go against each other, paving the way for Sun Laoshangshu to return to the dynasty, otherwise how can a new official take office with three fires?"

Zhu Hao reminded with a smile.

Su Xigui thought again.

The North Household Department is still in the hands of Yang Tinghe faction, and when Sun Jiao arrives in Beijing, even if Sun Jiao does not defect to the new emperor, he can be regarded as a neutral faction, which is equivalent to saying that the South Household and the North Household have become the new emperor's bag, and the new emperor must make some trouble before controlling the North and South Household Division.

Of course, the emperor wants to completely control the financial power in his hands, but only mastering the household department is equivalent to only getting the account book and not getting the key to the warehouse.

"Understood."

Su Xigui is shrewd in the end, Zhu Hao woke up a little, and he already understood.

Create a confrontational situation first, let Sun hand over the mess, and take the opportunity to clean up the affairs outside the situation, this is the new emperor's next plan.

……

……

We're done talking.

Su Xigui doesn't have to worry about Huang Zhan's position change for the time being.

Since the emperor needs Huang Zhan's support in the Nanhu Ministry, then Huang Zan will stay in the Nanhu Ministry, and even if he is forced to transfer Huang Zan to a position like the secretary of the Southern Military Department or the secretary of the Southern Officials Department, he will find someone from Huang Zhan's faction to take over the position of the Nanhu Ministry.

The main positions of the Ming Dynasty were taken over, and it was very different from factions.

Now is still the time for the new emperor to fight for power with Yang Tinghe, the yamen that was originally in control will definitely not let people from other factions get involved, even if it is really replaced, it must find people from the same faction, even if it is really replaced, it must be an exchange of interests in other aspects.

It's like the system of officials, soldiers, and households in the last years of Zhengde has been in the hands of Lu Wan and Wang Qiong's faction, behind which is the mediation and acquiescence of Zhu Houzhao and Jiang Bin and others, Yang Tinghe can't get involved anymore, until Emperor Zhengde died, Lu Wan and Wang Qiong fell one after another, and the system gradually collapsed, and the officials and soldiers belonged to Yang Tinghe, but the household department fell into the hands of the new emperor.

Wang Shouren has always been depressed, and it is also related to the fact that he belongs to Wang Qiong's faction, even if Wang Shouren has the opportunity to be promoted in the early years of Jiajing, Yang Tinghe and the faction have suppressed him to the extreme, trying every means to make him lose Zhu Si's trust.

In addition to Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing, who is currently at home, is in a similar situation.

Therefore, after Zhang Xuan proposed the Great Rites Proposal, no matter what Yang Yiqing or Wang Shouren's previous opinions were, they all stood on Zhang Zhang's position and strongly supported Zhang Zhang's proposal for the Great Gifts Proposal, which was also the result of factional fighting, because they knew that supporting Yang Tinghe would not bring any benefits to themselves, and it was better to support the new emperor to bring a turnaround to their careers.

"Little master, the contemptible people also learned a news, saying that Yang Ge Lao intends to transfer Qiao Shangshu of the Southern Military Department to the Beijing Division to the Northern Officials Department, and I heard that this matter has reached the stage of court pushing, I don't know...... Is there any news about this? ”

After Su Xigui ensured that Huang Zhan's status remained unchanged for the time being, what he cared about was what the officialdom of the Southern Sixth Department would be next.

Obviously, in the next six southern Shangshu, Yang Ting and the people of the faction will be promoted, not Yang Tinghe and the faction at most keep their original official positions unchanged, and some may even order Zhishi, Jiang Bin and Qian Ning are dead, but the involvement of the two eucalyptus is not over, plus the impact of Lu Wanyu before, many people were involved in it for no reason.

What you want is a reason for you to resign.

Zhu Hao said: "Your Majesty's intention is to take Wang Zhongcheng, the governor of southern Jiangxi and the counselor of military affairs, as the secretary of the Southern Military Department, and this matter is being sought." ”

"Thing...... Is it accurate? ”

Su Xigui's face was happy.

Because Huang Zan and Wang Shouren have always had a friendship, and both of them are members of Wang Qiong's faction, now that the backers have fallen, the people of the old Wang Qiong faction will definitely report to the group for warmth.

Zhu Hao shook his head: "It's not easy to do." ”

"Hiss......"

Of course, Su Xigui knew that the position of Shangshu of the Southern Military Department was originally a person from Yang Tinghe's faction, how could he easily hand over the position to Wang Shouren?

Even if Wang Shouren is rooted and is the son of Wang Hua of the Hanlin Academy's cabinet ministers, after all, Wang Shouren has not been in the officialdom of Beijing, nor has he joined Yang Tinghe faction, even if Jiangxi has made a contribution to pacifying the rebellion of King Ning, he will still be excluded by Yang Tinghe.

"Wang Zhongcheng...... Or don't you want to be a minister in the DPRK? ”

Zhu Hao said again.

Su Xigui asked, "The little master doesn't plan to help?" ”

Zhu Hao wanted to say, it's not that I don't want to help, but the timing is wrong.

Knowing that there is a contradiction between Wang Shouren and Yang Tinghe, he still has to go all out to help, which will seriously aggravate the contradiction between the emperor and Yang Tinghe, and the focus of the struggle between the emperor and Yang Tinghe is still on the Great Rites Discussion, which is for the title of Princess Jiang, and it is not good to expand it outward.

Zhu Hao is familiar with history, Wang Shouren finally did get the position of secretary of the Nanjing Military Department in the sixteenth year of Zhengde, but then in February of the following year, Wang Hua passed away, Wang Shouren needed to return to his hometown to guard the system, and the next three years could not help the new emperor in the court.

If you want to make good use of Wang Shouren's card, it is best to wait for Yang Tinghe to fall first.

And Wang Shouren is indeed not an administrative official who governs the six yamen, his ability lies in governing the locality, quelling thieves, suppressing bandits, and even guarding the nine sides, that is Wang Shouren's unique skill.

Zhu Hao said: "Southern Military Department, Your Majesty is bound to win this time, but the way and method need to be considered, which the mother of the Soviet Union and East China must worry about." The imperial court is currently extremely lacking in military salaries, and His Majesty means that he wants Mr. Tang to go further in the household department, at least ...... Mixed household in charge, but you need to be meritorious. ”

"Oh......"

Su Xigui immediately smiled and said, "Understood, understood." The matter of military pay is wrapped up in the despicable people. ”
