Officials.

Yang Tinghe's visit on this day was originally to inquire about the investigation of Beijing and the big plan, but he happened to meet He Mengchun, the new right attendant of the Ministry of Officials, who had just arrived in Beijing.

He Mengchun was regarded as the core figure in Yang Tinghe's faction who opposed Zhang Xuan's great rites in the early years of Jiajing, and only in the middle of the year was he changed from the right attendant of the Nanjing Military Department to the right attendant of the Beijing Division, and he came to the capital for less than half a month all the way.

He Mengchun and Yang Tinghe are old acquaintances, He Mengchun was extremely respectful to Yang Tinghe, and explained in detail the matter at hand.

Then He Mengchun left, and Qiao Yu, the secretary of the ministry, came over to dock with Yang Tinghe.

「…… How do you feel?"

Qiao Yu asked with a smile.

In the sixteenth year of Zhengde, Qiao Yu was transferred to the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department to the secretary of the Beijing Division, and Wang Shouren took his place, and this time He Mengchun was transferred to the capital, or Qiao Yu led.

In the Ming Dynasty, this kind of transfer within the faction is a common thing, generally the old boss is promoted, and the position is left to the most loyal subordinates, or the boss is transferred to the capital, and his subordinates will follow him, which is called a glory.

Qiao Yu meant to ask Yang Tinghe, what do you think of He Mengchun?

Is it useful?

Yang Tinghe didn't comment positively on He Mengchun, but just asked, "Can you still support the errand of the ministry now?"

"At first, I felt that I had a lot of things to do, but after a long time, there was no problem with straightening it out...... I don't know when Zuo Shilang's position will be decided? Sometimes...... Someone still needs to support the affairs of the ministry."

Qiao Yu was a little embarrassed.

In the first year of Jiajing, there was also a major event in the Ministry of Officials, that is, Hu Shining, the famous iron-headed man who participated in the impeachment of King Ning, was transferred from Yunnan to the capital as the left servant of the Ministry of Officials.

This incident has caused quite a stir in the government and the opposition.

Hu Shining belonged to a neutral faction, and he did not take the initiative to move closer to the traditional civilian forces, nor did he have the intention of joining the emerging forces represented by the new emperor, so he was a thorn.

This time, Hu Shining's onset was very urgent, and it was said that it was difficult to even get out of bed, as for whether it was a real illness or a fake illness, or a small illness pretending to be a major illness, there was no way to know.

In history, it was not until the fourth year of Jiajing that Hu Shining was reactivated and continued to serve as his minister, and at that time Yang Tinghe had retired, and the new emperor was completely in control of the situation in the court.

Yang Tinghe didn't have any idea of wooing Hu Shining.

This person is praised by others for his uprightness, because the impeachment of King Ning also went to Liaodong to live a hard life for a few years, and he is regarded as an "Internet celebrity official" in the court, and the court inspires ordinary scholars with the spirit of Hu Shining.

"Your Majesty intends to intervene in this matter, and the current situation is that your Majesty may each arrange a squire for the Yamen such as the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment, and vice versa...... Hmmm......"

There are some things that Yang Tinghe doesn't need to hide from Qiao Yu, but he doesn't need to say them in too much detail.

Qiao Yu nodded in understanding.

Now in the court, there are no people who belong to the new emperor in the strict sense, they are all civil official factions in power, but the household department and the Ministry of Industry are relatively speaking, leaning on the new emperor's side a little more, after all, Sun Jiao, the secretary of the household department, and Zhao Huang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, both became Shangshu because of Zhu Si's nomination, but Sun Jiao and Zhao Huang have a neutral attitude in court affairs.

The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Soldiers, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Rites can be regarded as the self-reserved places of Yang Tinghe faction, and the situation of the Ministry of Rites is not very clear.

Although Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has always been a supporter of Yang Ting's peace ceremony, but because he did not ascend the throne after the new emperor ascended the throne, he belonged to the old seniority of the court, and the Ministry of Rites is a place that pays attention to etiquette and rules.

And Qiao Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Peng Ze, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Lin Jun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, who had just arrived in the capital, were Yang Tinghe's staunchest supporters, and the three of them knew very well that it was Yang Tinghe who helped them to their current positions, so they naturally needed to repay the favor.

However, the civil officials are completely in control of one, and the new emperor cannot interfere, which will cause distrust between the monarch and the minister.

So between the monarch and the minister

The tacit understanding is that Yang Tinghe has mastered the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Soldiers and the Ministry of Punishment, and Zhu Si intends to arrange a squire for each of them...... As for Yang Tinghe's "vice versa", he is not so particular, because now except for the two Shangshu in the household department and the Ministry of Industry, the rest of the people are inclined to Yang Tinghe, and he does not need to make special arrangements.

Then this time in Jingcha, is there anything special that needs to be explained?

Qiao Yu asked very directly.

Do you want to make the evaluation of some officials "poor" in the Beijing Inspection, and then make them gradually fade out of the court?

Yang Tinghe put down a case file in his hand and said solemnly: "Everything is handled fairly, so as not to be gossiped about. Even those cultivated by His Majesty should not be mistaken because they have done something that exceeds their duty."

Yang Tinghe tried his best to portray himself as an impartial and straightforward minister.

Although Qiao Yu, you are right, can't you weigh it yourself?

Do you have to let me teach in person? Even if you are not afraid that the wall has ears, you can't let me Yang have two faces in front of me and behind everyone, and be criticized by the courtiers, right?

"Yes, yes."

Qiao Yu knew that he had talked too much, so he smiled and agreed, and no longer talked about it, but he already had an idea in his heart.

……

……

Tang Yin has been in the dynasty for less than three years, and he has not even completed the period of the small examination, and Jingcha has nothing to do with him this year.

Recently, Tang Yin has been very leisurely, staying in the capital for a long time, and not going back to Xishan, and occasionally being called to participate in the court meeting, but there is no special insight in the court, even so...... Tang Yin also felt that his life had reached the pinnacle, and he had no more pursuits.

Once when he had dinner with Zhu Hao, he unconsciously said it and wanted to say goodbye to his hometown.

After being taught a lesson by Zhu Hao, Tang Yin smiled and didn't say anything, probably he was not suitable for the political ecology of the DPRK and China, and preferred to live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes.

This is also where Zhu Hao is worried.

I always wanted to change Tang Yin, but in the end I found that ...... Tang Yin is more suitable to be a prodigal son, and he doesn't know how to cherish his errands.

screams and is tired every day, as if he has been mean.

This time, Huang Zan was the most affected among the people around Zhu Hao.

Huang Zan has been in the court for a long time, and he knows very well that he is now being targeted by Yang Tinghe, so Su Xigui has been running around the capital recently, not to rush to the doctor and give gifts everywhere, but to inquire about Huang Zhan's career.

Money can make ghosts grind, Su Xigui relied on his money ability, he had already checked Yang Tinghe up and down the faction, and he thought that he had a certain friendship, and Qiao Yu, the secretary of the ministry, came from Nanjing, and had received Su Xigui's generous gifts before, so Su Xigui was very confident, and felt that as long as Yang Tinghe was not so persecuted, the assessment of the ministry should not have any impact on Huang Zhan's career.

Early July.

In the name of sending the troupe to the new emperor, Su Xigui saw Zhu Hao again, and it has been a month since he last saw Zhu Hao.

This time, Su Xigui specially prepared a gift for Zhu Hao, not a wine-colored and wealthy thing, but a list, which is Huang Zhan's official for many years and has been collected in various places.

"If it is a place where the small masters have useful people, they can be transferred to the capital, or arranged to suitable positions, in short, they will not fail the grace of God."

Su Xigui gave Zhu Hao the list, which was equivalent to opening Huang Zhan's hole card to Zhu Hao.

If Zhu Hao follows the map and cleans up Huang Zhan's forces one by one, it is enough. Huang Zan is willing to take it out, or he really feels the crisis, and he has to express his loyalty to the new emperor, not only to recommend the available people to the new emperor, but also to show himself clearly to the new emperor......

"Hmm."

After Zhu Hao finished reading it, he put the things away.

Su Xigui was a little cautious, and said, "Little master, this list is very important, if you lose it......

Zhu Hao smiled, "You don't believe that I will show it to me?"

"It's not that I don't believe it, but I'm afraid of being ...... by others."

Zhu Hao said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty has not been on the throne for a long time, and there are not many people around you

, if Huang Gong can transfer people who are familiar with him to His Majesty's use, it will also be a supplement to the court. But who can and can't be used can only be decided after a detailed investigation...... It doesn't say what these people do, it's useless for others to take it, and I won't show it to others."

"Yes."

Su Xigui sat down again and poured tea for Zhu Hao.

Su Xigui said: "If you are someone else, I will always send some beauties, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., after all, it is too cold to send silver directly, and most people refuse to accept it, and the effect will be much better with a layer of packaging." But when you get to the little master, you don't lack anything, and I don't know what to send."

Zhu Hao glanced at Su Xigui a few times and asked, "What...... Got into trouble again?"

"Hey! Isn't it a matter of salt induction? The household side has tightened the salt introduction this year, I heard that the Jin merchants took away a lot of salt, many of them went bankrupt to do this, and at this time of the year, there was not a million salt introductions in their hands, but there were hundreds of thousands...... This year, I haven't even reached 10,000."

Su Xigui complained bitterly.

Zhu Hao asked curiously, "Why is the difference so big?"

"Who knows what to do, all the salt farms are bumper harvests, and now Xungui doesn't have so many nests, but he can't bear to arch his head forward...... Alas, this salt merchant is doing in name only, it's not right to start, and it's even more wrong to let go, in fact, I also want to know, didn't you say before that you want to change the method of silver folding? When will it be implemented? Despicable to the northwest...... And there are many acres of land."

Su Xigui is really the kind of person who can't afford to be early.

Knowing that Zhu Hao intends to change the color folding method in the salt law, even if it is not changed to the Kaizhong method, at least he will continue to carry out the Shangtun policy in the northwest.

Su Xigui bought a large amount of land in the northwest in advance, because a lot of it was wasteland and the price was cheap, so he waited for the grain to be changed and sold to those merchants who went to operate the fields in exchange for huge profits.

But when the money is spent, the land is bought, and when it appreciates, it is sold to make money...... But there is no news of the next step.

Some of Su Xigui's family wealth was trapped, just waiting for Zhu Hao to untie him.
