Therefore, while his merits are to be brushed, he also wants to take this opportunity to let Zhu Zhanji, this kid, take a good look at the various forces in the entire Nanzhili.

The implementation of the New Deal is naturally intended to offend people, but on the contrary, it is also the best time to sell others well, show favor to others, and cultivate one's own lineage.

Originally, although this eldest grandson was a noble on the surface, he actually had no foundation under his command at all, and through the implementation of the new policy this time, he could also take the opportunity to cultivate some of his own foundation forces in the contact with various forces in Nanzhili.

That Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji were the first batch of descendants that Zhu Di sent to his eldest grandson.

Yang Shiqi was the first to be a subordinate official in the Prince's Mansion, and originally belonged to Zhu Zhanji's father's subordinates, although he came to the cabinet later, but the first assistant of the cabinet was promoted by Zhu Zhanji.

Now I will walk with Zhu Zhanji and supervise the implementation of this new policy together, and we will naturally get close to each other by advancing and retreating together.

In addition, this person was originally a subordinate official of the prince's mansion, which can play a great role in Zhu Zhanji's acceptance of the prince's lineage in his father's hands in the future.

As for that Xia Yuanji, it represents his Zhu Di's lineage in the court.

In this way, with the help of these two people, whether it is the implementation of the new policy in the future or the development of the foundation of the lineage in the future, it will be of great benefit to Zhu Zhanji.

For his eldest grandson, he can be regarded as well-intentioned.

........

Outside the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Zhanji really didn't expect that things would develop into such a situation.

Originally, I just thought that the old man could help him solve the problem of spreading into acres before he ascended the throne, and he could just pick up a ready-made one.

But he never thought that this errand would end up on his head.

However, when he heard that the old man asked him to preside over the implementation of the new policy, the reason why Zhu Zhanji did not resist much was not that he really wanted to do this errand.

It's that the nature of the incident itself is similar to the escape plan he planned in Jinyiwei.

When he found out that as long as he was in the capital, the old man would definitely find all kinds of ways to toss, he thought that this capital would not be able to stay.

I thought that while everyone's attention was on the stall, he secretly sent Jinyiwei's men to investigate the officials of the DPRK and China.

No matter how big or small his official position is, as long as there is a violation of the law and oppression of the people, he relies on his authority to supervise the country and directly come to a reshuffle of officialdom.

Before anyone reacts, strike first.

It's like his grandfather dealt with those corrupt officials in the first place.

At that time, even if it is discovered by the old man and the father, it will be too late.

Anyway, even if this matter is not done in the old man's dynasty, he will do it himself after he ascends the throne, and under the rule of the Ming Dynasty in recent decades, it has long been different from the grandfather's dynasty.

After all, corruption is impossible to eradicate.

Decades of stability will surely breed a number of moths in officialdom.

The best way to deal with these moths is to remove them regularly so that they do not damage the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the rest, there is no solution at all.

Therefore, it is better to take this opportunity to do it yourself without doing it and doing it endlessly.

At that time, even if he faced unprecedented pressure, there was still a counterattack from those court forces, and he just took advantage of this to escape.

I went to tell the old man that I wanted to run, and the old man would never agree.

Then let the countless forces and interest groups in the DPRK and China do it.

In the end, on the grounds of temporarily avoiding the edge, he justifiably went to Beiping to enjoy Qingfu, and by the way, he could also take a look at the newly built northern capital.

Of course, if this is all there is, it will not make the old man, the emperor of the moment, compromise.

But if you're not careful, what handle do those people really get?

Originally, according to his plan, this should have been done in the near future. But there was such a sudden incident in the middle, and he was not too anxious.

First of all, if you want to implement this new policy, it is certain that you will offend people.

This undoubtedly increased the hostile forces of Zhu Zhanji in the court.

It also gave him more hope that he could successfully escape to Beiping.

Of course, in presiding over the implementation of the new policy, he will still do it well, this matter is very critical to the Ming Dynasty, even if you don't go to Beiping, this matter must be done, there is no room for negotiation.

Along the way, Zhu Zhanji walked and thought about his next plan.

When he looked up again, he had arrived at the Yamen of Fusi in the north town of Jinyiwei.

..........

The other side.

After everyone finished discussing the matter from the Qianqing Palace, whether it was the scholars of the cabinet or the scholars of the six departments, they all returned to their respective positions.

Only Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji, on the pretext of discussing the implementation of the new policy, walked in the palace after separating from everyone.

"Lord Yang, you deliberately walked separately from everyone, but what do you have to say?"

Although Xia Yuanji is upright and unsociable, he is not stupid.

For Yang Shiqi to say that deliberately, he still saw some signs.

Hearing Xia Yuanji ask, Yang Shiqi didn't delay any longer, and after looking left and right at the left and right, he suddenly said with a solemn face: "Xia Shangshu, today Your Majesty is in the Qianqing Palace, and wants His Royal Highness Changsun to preside over the implementation of the new policy, what can you see?" ”

Facing Yang Shiqi's inquiry, Xia Yuanji thought about it carefully and said: "The eldest grandson is the prince's son-in-law, and the policy of spreading the money into the mu is offered by the eldest grandson. ”

Regarding Xia Yuanji's words, Yang Shiqi did not refute them, because this is well known, and it can be seen basically by those present.

But that's not what he was trying to say.

"But even so, why didn't Your Majesty appoint the two of us to assist His Royal Highness the Eldest Sun of Zuo?"

Yang Shiqi's question, he Xia Yuanji really didn't think about it, and immediately frowned and replied: "You, Lord Yang, are the first assistant of the cabinet, you are practical and steady, and you are good at solving practical problems. With you by the eldest grandson's side, the emperor does not need to worry about the shallowness of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, and he can also learn more and experience around the adults. ”

"As for me.... This is a tax reform policy, and I, as the head of the household department, held this position, and I also said it in the past, right? ”

Yang Shiqi nodded again when he heard this: "However, Xia Shangshu has ever thought about why His Majesty is so anxious to ask His Royal Highness the Eldest Sun to participate in this kind of thing and practice diligently?" Although there is nothing wrong with having more merits, this is too urgent..... Although the eldest grandson is talented, he is still young, and he ....."

Speaking of this, Yang Shiqi suddenly stopped, looked around carefully again, and after repeatedly confirming that there was no one else around him, he whispered: "Besides, there is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the middle, why should the emperor be in a hurry to let the eldest grandson do this?" ”

"Even if the eldest grandson has no merits, he only needs to succeed to the crown prince in the future, isn't it all logical? Your Majesty's move, isn't it superfluous? On the contrary, letting His Royal Highness the eldest grandson preside over the implementation of the new policy this time has increased the risk, and this loss-making transaction will be done by the emperor's Shengming? ”

"This is a matter related to the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, but Your Majesty is willing to take this risk, why?!"

Yang Shiqi said this point, and even if Xia Yuanji was upright, he heard some signs.

Although it is not possible to sort out the relationship between them, he vaguely senses that the emperor's move must have a deep meaning.

Immediately, Xia Yuanji changed his calm demeanor just now, looked at Yang Shiqi, who was good at perceiving things, and asked, "Lord Yang, if you think so, what does the emperor mean?" ”

Yang Shiqi saw that Xia Yuanji still didn't understand, and he was helpless.

But can he say that?

It is already a taboo to speculate about the holy will, and if this matter is known to the emperor, he, the head of the cabinet, will do it.

Going deeper, this is not as simple as committing a taboo, this is fatal!

Immediately, Yang Shiqi didn't say much, but said: "Xia Shangshu should think about it himself.....

After saying that, he walked straight ahead.

And Xia Yuanji, who was behind him, stood in place stupidly, thinking carefully.

But I really couldn't figure it out for a while, and when I looked up and saw that Yang Shiqi had already gone away, I hurriedly chased after him.

"Lord Yang, go slowly!"

........

Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Yamen.

This time, Ji Gang and the others did not disappoint Zhu Zhanji.

At this time, in front of Zhu Zhanji's eyes, there were stacks of excerpts about the officials of the DPRK and China.

It contains a detailed account of all the wrongdoing of these officials, as well as various evidences.

After finally getting what he wanted, Zhu Zhanji looked at Qi Cheng on the side and said, "You keep the things, you have to be able to take them out as soon as I need them." ”

After that, without waiting for Qi Cheng to respond, Zhu Zhanji looked at the other two people on the side and said: "This matter is very important, the most important thing is to keep it secret, before I take it out, you must not let anyone know, remember!" ”

When he said the last sentence, Zhu Zhanji said it in an unusually solemn tone.

In fact, there is no need for Zhu Zhanji to say these at all, these folds in front of them are all the highest secrets of Jinyiwei, and any excerpt is enough to set off a storm in the court.

Although they all think highly of themselves, they also understand that there are some things that cannot be done.

Even if they are reporting corruption, once this sense of proportion goes wrong, they can't guarantee their absolute safety even if they are in Jinyiwei.

"Your Highness, rest assured, your subordinates know."

Zhu Zhanji nodded, and then continued to explain: "Recently, the people of the Jinyi Guard have been arranged in the range of Nanzhili, from the government to the squire and the bully, I want to have a detailed understanding of them. But this matter is not in a hurry, you can find out slowly. ”

"Subordinates take orders!"

With Zhu Zhanji after explaining the matter and leaving Jinyiwei.

Ji Gang in the yamen showed a thoughtful look.

Compared with others, his Ji Gang's understanding of intelligence can be regarded as one of the best people in the Ming Dynasty.

There are many things that the emperor doesn't know as fast as he does, and he knows a lot.

Today, after the emperor finished fasting from the Taimiao, he discussed major matters with the ministers of the court and the central government in the Qianqing Palace, and his discipline was also clear.

Although he was not so clear about the details of the major matters discussed, he Ji Gang was able to guess some.

Especially after His Royal Highness Zhu Zhanji, the eldest grandson, came to Jinyiwei as soon as he came out of the Qianqing Palace, and also explained that they would arrange most of their manpower in the entire Nanzhili and investigate the various forces within the entire Nanzhili.

It can be seen that the major matters discussed in the Qianqing Palace today must be related to Nanzhili, and even reached the point of investigating the forces of all parties in Nanzhili.

Even some squire bullies have to be investigated.....

"What is it for?" Ji Gang muttered silently.

After Zhu Zhanji's beating before, although this Ji Gang is a lot more honest, he is still the ambitious guy in the background.

What he wanted was more than just a small Jinyi Guard commander.

So secretly, there are still a lot of connections between him and local governments.

In addition to mutual exchange, there are also complex interest relationships.

Now that the imperial court wants to do something to Nan Zhili, it is equivalent to taking action against him.

Whether it is for the network he has worked so hard to build, or to ensure that he Ji Gang himself is not found out and does not have an accident, he must figure everything out as soon as possible.

"Someone!"

As Ji Gang's voice sounded, the brocade guard standing at the entrance of the yamen suddenly walked in.

Looking at this person, Ji Gang sorted out his expression, and said casually: "My wife said before going out today that she wanted to eat the dim sum in the Qinchun Pavilion in the south of the city, and I can't get away from it now, you can help me run, go to the Qinchun Pavilion to settle down, and go directly to report my name, just say that I want it." ”

Listening to Ji Gang's words, the brocade guard hurriedly nodded, turned around and headed towards the south of the city.

A moment later.

Qinchun Pavilion in the south of the city.

After the brocade guard reported his name, the shopkeeper of the Qinchun Pavilion hurriedly responded.

But as soon as the brocade guard left, the shopkeeper's expression changed and he headed for the backyard.

When I met a guy in the backyard, he explained in a low voice: "Report a message to the family, and say that the commander of Jinyiwei has ordered a snack." ”

The guy nodded yes.

Evening.

Outside a restaurant in the north of the city.

The commander of the Jinyi Guard, Ji Gang, and a palace eunuch in disguise entered the restaurant one after another.

And after a short quarter of an hour, he left the restaurant again.

And the news about the policy of apportioning the land into the mu, the return of fire consumption to the public, the integration of the officials and gentry to pay grain, and the maintenance of incorruptible silver, also seemed to have wings and began to spread to the entire Nanzhili area.

Early in the morning of the second day.

Households.

Zhu Zhanji and Yang Shiqi from the cabinet came here together.

At this time, the officials of the household department were working hard to calculate the share of the poll tax in the imperial court's tax in recent years, the increase in the proportion of profit to the land tax, the amount of fire consumption, the increase in the proportion of the court and so on.

In short, the apportionment into the mu and the return of fire consumption to the public are just a few words, and there must be detailed calculations on how to implement them.

Only when all the amounts have been calculated can a complete New Deal implementation plan be listed.

However, these are all things that Xia Yuanji is good at, and Zhu Zhanji and Yang Shiqi can't get involved at all, so they leave these things to him to deal with.

Yang Shiqi and Zhu Zhanji, on the other hand, were walking in the courtyard of the household department while discussing how to wait for the data to be calculated and how to execute after coming up with a detailed plan.

"Your Highness, yesterday Weichen thought about it for a long time, and he had some ideas on how to implement the new policy."

Zhu Zhanji, who heard this, said while drinking soy milk: "You come and talk about it, I'll listen." ”

After speaking, Zhu Zhanji sat on the stone chair in the courtyard of the household.

After Zhu Zhanji sat down, Yang Shiqi on the side stood beside Zhu Zhanji, ready to speak.

Seeing that Yang Shiqi was still standing, Zhu Zhanji suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to another stone bench on the side, and said, "Sit, sit down and talk." ”

Zhu Zhanji said it easily, but what is his identity, especially after he Yang Shiqi saw a little bit of the old emperor Zhu Di's thoughts yesterday, he was even more respectful to the eldest grandson in front of him.

Sitting with him, how dare Yang Shiqi.

"Your Highness....."

Seeing that Yang Shiqi was going to say something to refuse, Zhu Zhanji said directly: "Tell you to sit down." ”

Hearing this, Yang Shiqi had no choice but to sit down.

"Okay, let's move on."

"Yes."

"Your Highness, Weichen feels that it is difficult to say that it is difficult to implement a new policy in Nanzhili, and it is easy to say that it is simple. It is difficult to say, but it is difficult to say that the forces in various parts of the entire Nanzhili are intricately intertwined, and the implementation will inevitably encounter all kinds of resistance. To put it simply, the implementation of the new policy is nothing more than two methods, the gentle law and the iron-blooded law. ”

Listening to Yang Shiqi's words, Zhu Zhanji, who had already planned in his heart, became interested: "Oh? What a gentle method, and what an iron-blooded method. ”

Yang Shiqi said: "Huairou method, the apportionment into the mu, the official gentry into the grain, the fire consumption to the public split, with the method of boiling frogs in warm water, slowly, and at the same time with the method of raising incorruptible silver, the forces and resistance are dismantled and separated. This method is won in an orderly and steady manner. ”

Zhu Zhanji nodded noncommittally and continued to ask, "What about the Iron Blood Method?" ”

"The Iron and Blood Method is simpler. In accordance with the method agreed upon by the imperial court, in the name of the imperial court, the prefectures and prefectures of Nanzhili were announced, and it was directly implemented in the entire Nanzhili. If you don't obey the laws and regulations of the imperial court, you will be killed, and you will be killed. ”

"It's simple, effective, and fast."

As Yang Shiqi finished saying his thoughts, Zhu Zhanji agreed with it.

He said appreciatively: "That's right, the thinking is clear and clear, if you do this method, you will get something." However, is there a third law? ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's appreciation, Yang Shiqi's face did not have any reaction, but when he heard Zhu Zhanji ask about the third method, his face showed surprise.

"Third ......?"

Just as Yang Shiqi was thinking, a person suddenly broke into the door of the household.

This person was the eunuch who was on duty outside the study.

After the eunuch entered the door of the household, he looked left and right, and when he saw Zhu Zhanji, he hurriedly ran over.

"His Royal Highness the Eldest Sun!"

Zhu Zhanji and Yang Shiqi, who were discussing the implementation of the new policy law together, were suddenly attracted by this person's shout.

Seeing this person hurrying over, for some reason, an ominous premonition suddenly rose in Yang Shiqi's heart.

"Your Highness! Lord Yang Rong of the cabinet came to pass the word that it was an excerpt from some prefectures and yamen in Nanzhili early in the morning, saying that the new policy was too harsh and it was too difficult to supervise and handle it in various places, and asked the imperial court to reconsider! ”

As the eunuch's words were finished, before Zhu Zhanji could say anything, Yang Shiqi's face on the side changed in shock!

How did the state capitals of Nanzhili know about the square that had just been decided early yesterday morning?

Now that the content of the new policy has been leaked, the Huairou method of the two laws he proposed is no longer useful.

Boiled frogs in warm water, that frogs don't know.

The frog knows the ending, and this method is worthless.

Half of this method of implementing the new policy has been lost before it has been agreed, which makes Yang Shiqi, who is in charge of assisting Zhu Zhanji to implement the new policy, not be shocked or angry.

And although the iron-blooded method can still be used, the resistance faced will also be raised to the peak.

Double the difficulty.

Before the implementation of this new policy, the excerpts requesting reconsideration in various localities have already been handed in, and when it is implemented, it is conceivable how much resistance it will face.

That is, now that Zhu Zhanji is by his side, he Yang Shiqi can still hold back the anger in his heart, turned to Zhu Zhanji beside him and said: "Your Highness, although Weichen doesn't know where the content of the new deal was leaked, but this matter is not trivial, the opportunity has been leaked, and I am afraid that the implementation of this new policy will be even more difficult!" ”

Looking at the anxious look on Yang Shiqi's face, Zhu Zhanji raised his hand and waved it with a smile, and said calmly: "Lord Yang...... Calm down. ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, looking at his calm and calm demeanor, Yang Shiqi realized his gaffe just now.

While bowing down and apologizing to Zhu Zhanji, he also slowly restrained his emotions and regained his composure.

Of course, being reminded by Zhu Zhanji like this, Yang Shiqi was still a little embarrassed in his heart.

He was originally called by the emperor to assist His Royal Highness the Eldest Sun, but he never thought that he would be educated by His Royal Highness the Eldest Sun when he encountered something.

And after seeing Yang Shiqi calm down, Zhu Zhanji chuckled and said, "Lord Yang, have you forgotten the third method I just told you?" Although my method is not as much as that of Lord Yang, and it is not as good as that of Lord Yang, it is suitable for use at this time. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Yang Shiqi to ask anything more, he said again: "Let's go, since all the prefectures have handed over the folds, let's go and see what they have said." ”

"By the way, call Xia Yuanji Xia Shangshu as well."

After walking out of the household compound, Zhu Zhanji took Naxia Yuanji and Yang Shiqi to the study room where the cabinet was located.

At this time, the study room has long been different from the deserted appearance of the past.

After Zhu Zhanji ordered the cabinet to send additional personnel, the cabinet scholars each added four or five co-sponsors.

Now that this is gathered, there are really a lot of people.

With the entry of Zhu Zhanji and others, the eyes of everyone present were focused on Zhu Zhanji.

When he came closer, Zhu Zhanji casually asked Yang Rong: "What about the excerpts, what is written on them?" ”

Hearing this, Yang Rong said: "The content of the excerpts is much the same, nothing more than according to the situation of their respective state capitals to indicate that the content of the new policy is not applicable in various places, and explain them one by one. ”

Listening to Yang Rong's answer, Zhu Zhanji nodded, then looked at everyone present, smiled and waved them away, and said, "Okay, it's not a big deal, let's do what we need to do." ”

Seeing Zhu Zhanji like this, everyone present was really relieved.

It's not that they are afraid that the new policy will not be implemented, but that they are afraid that Zhu Zhanji will blame the people in their cabinet for this.

After all, who knows the content of this new deal from yesterday to now?

In addition to the cabinet scholars and the six scholars who discussed with the emperor, the crown prince, and the eldest grandson in the Qianqing Palace, that is, these co-organizers of their cabinet and the people from the household department knew some rumors.

If you can't find the person who leaked the secret, the eldest grandson will really blame it, and they won't be able to eat and walk around.

After all, now this young eldest grandson, His Royal Highness, has the power of the brocade guard and the prison of the country.

Even the first assistant of the cabinet, Xie Jin, was not sent home to sober up by the words of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson in front of him?

It's been a few days, and the wine hasn't woken up yet.

I'm afraid that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson won't open his mouth, and this wine will not be able to wake up.

More than ten years of hard study, decades of ups and downs in officialdom, may fall short.

However, fortunately, there was no blame, and everyone left with peace of mind.

As these scholars and their co-organizers left one by one, they returned to the halls to deal with government affairs.

Silence returned to the entire study room.

And the smile on Zhu Zhanji's face gradually disappeared, and after turning around and sitting down on the dragon chair, his eyes swept over Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji in the field.

While Zhu Zhanji was looking at the two of them, these two were also looking at Zhu Zhanji, waiting for Zhu Zhanji to give an order.

But when the two of them were waiting with sad faces, Zhu Zhanji, who was sitting on the dragon chair, suddenly smiled.

"Alright, two, don't keep a face."

"Although the leak of the content of the new deal seems to make the situation develop in a bad direction, it is not necessarily a bad thing."

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji were shocked.

It's not necessarily a bad thing, but what is the best way to grow His Royal Highness Sun?

In the expectant gaze of the two, Zhu Zhanji chuckled and asked, "Two, have you ever read a book of soldiers?" ”

After Xia Yuanji and Yang Shiqi glanced at each other, they each said, "I've learned a little." ”

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "Sun Tzu has a saying in the Art of War, those who are good at fighting are invincible first, and then the enemy can be defeated." ”

"You can't win in yourself, you can win in the enemy, so those who are good at fighting can be invincible, you can't make the enemy invincible, you can't win, you can know what you can win, and you can't do it."

"If two armies are fighting, if they want to be undefeated, it is not in others, but in themselves. And if you want to win the enemy, it is not in yourself, but in the opponent. ”

"If they pretend not to know and prepare secretly, I really can't touch them casually. But now, although they came by surprise with a preemptive move, it was precisely because of their attack this time that they gave His Highness a way to break the enemy. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanji also looked at Yang Shiqi with a smile and said, "This is the third method that His Highness told you. ”

"Immovable like a mountain, follow the vine and touch the melon, knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey!"

The four words Zhu Zhanji said completely expressed his plan.

From not moving like a mountain, to touching melons along the vines, to knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, to the final killing of chickens and monkeys, until the success of the retreat.

This is Zhu Zhanji's entire plan.

It's just that in it, Zhu Zhanji deliberately hid a step to lure the enemy deeper.

。

Listening to Zhu Zhanji's words, Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji also thought carefully.

Immovable as a mountain, follow the vine and touch the melon, knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, kill the chicken and set an example for the monkey........

These few words made the two of them think about it.

Coupled with the art of war that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson said before, they should understand no matter how stupid they are.

Besides, it is not uncommon for them to say that they have learned something.

That Yang Shiqi was a person who also served as the secretary of the Ministry of War in history.

As long as Zhu Zhanji had a little bit of the truth, they would instantly understand.

And thinking about this matter now, they immediately knew what His Royal Highness the eldest grandson was thinking.

"What does His Highness mean, but you want to follow the vine and use this leak as a clue to dig out the person behind it?" Yang Shiqi asked a little excitedly.

Seeing that Yang Shiqi understood, Zhu Zhanji also replied with a smile: "Since they have stuck their heads out, how can I refuse their kindness?" ”

Just when Xia Yuanji, who was on the side, suddenly realized after listening to the words of the two, Yang Shiqi frowned again: "Your Highness, although this method is good, since the yamen of the state capitals dare to hand over the fold in such a short time, they obviously recognized this matter, and we can't find anyone who leaked it." ”

"After all, in addition to the six Shangshu and the scholars in the cabinet, the co-organizers of the cabinet and the people in the household department also know that there are too many people, if they bite to death and don't admit it, just say it is hearsay and rumors, we really have no choice."

"Besides, how do we find the culprit among so many people?"

I have to say that Yang Shiqi's thinking is still extremely thorough.

In this short period of time, the main point of the problem was grasped.

The method of not moving like a mountain, touching melons along the vines, knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, and killing chickens and monkeys is effective, but it is not a wonderful method.

Anyone who has read some military books can understand and think of these simple truths and methods.

The key point is, do you know that if you want to touch the melon along the vine, the other party doesn't know that you can't let you touch the melon along the vine?

Since the other party dares to act like this, there is an absolute certainty that you will not find the vine.

And whether you can grasp this vine is the key.

However, in the face of Yang Shiqi's puzzled inquiry, Zhu Zhanji just chuckled and did not speak.

Seeing Zhu Zhanji's demeanor, Yang Shiqi suddenly seemed to understand something.

wanted to ask, but the moment the words came out, he took it back.

Since His Royal Highness the eldest grandson doesn't want to say it, there is a reason that can't be said, as a courtier, how can he not have any sense of proportion.

Thinking of this, Yang Shiqi gradually quieted down and was silent.

Since His Royal Highness the eldest grandson is confident, then he will be quietly on the side.

However, the two of them understood, but Xia Yuanji on the side was stunned.

After waiting for a long time, why didn't these two people make a sound while talking? However, he Xia Yuanji was still extremely curious about Na Da Yu, which was like a cat scratching in his heart.

..............

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Di, who didn't sleep well all night last night, didn't fall asleep until near dawn.

But after sleeping for less than two hours, he woke up again.

Zhu Di, who slowly got up from the dragon couch, looked at Zhao Quan, who had been waiting at the door, and greeted him: "Little snot." ”

Zhao Quan, who had been waiting quietly at the door, seemed to be asleep.

But as soon as Zhu Di spoke, Zhao Quan immediately became agitated and ran into the inner hall without delay.

came to Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Di squeezed his eyes, and then asked, "What time is it?" ”

"It's time to go back to the emperor."

Hearing this, Zhu Di looked up at the sky outside the window, nodded, and said, "Let the imperial dining room prepare lunch in advance, I'm a little hungry today." ”

"Yes."

Just when Zhao Quan was about to receive the order to leave, Zhu Di suddenly remembered something and asked, "Is Huang Yan back?" ”

Zhao Quan replied: "Back to the emperor, Gonggong Huang has not come back yet." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di frowned: "Haven't come back yet?" Where did that kid go with Huang Yan? ”

In the end, Zhu Di was already talking to himself.

And Zhao Quan, who was familiar with Zhu Di, was not waiting by his side, he slowly retreated and ordered the imperial dining room to go.

Until late that night, Huang Yan, the celebrant beside Zhu Di and the eunuch of the East Detective Factory, still did not return.

Even Zhu Di didn't know where he went or what happened.

I only knew that I was asked to leave by my eldest grandson.

Just when Zhu Zhanji, Xia Yuanji, Yang Shiqi and others, who presided over the implementation of the new policy on the other side, all returned to their homes to rest.

Huang Yan, the factory governor of the East Factory, is leading his people from the East Factory to arrest him in more than ten groups.

All night long.

All those who were related to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and participated in the leakage of secrets, were all arrested and brought to justice.

The 14 prefectures under the jurisdiction of the entire Nanzhili include Yingtianfu, Fengyang, Huai'an, Yangzhou, Suzhou, Songjiang and so on.....

No one was spared.

From the origin of Ji Gang, pull out the radish and bring out the mud.

Even if they are in Nanzhili, where the relationship forces are intricate, it is difficult to escape under the inspection of the East Factory.

What's more, from beginning to end, Zhu Zhanji laid a trap for Na Jigang, and since he stepped on this trap, there was absolutely no possibility of escaping.

And in this network, there are members of various forces.

If they dig deeper, they will dig out a larger network of interests.

And digging or not digging depends on Zhu Zhanji's thoughts.

For a time, under the domineering actions of the East Investigation Factory, there was an unprecedented earthquake in the entire circle of Nanzhili elites.

Because this network originated from Ji Gang, it is not like an ordinary family, under Ji Gang's interpersonal connections as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, almost all the forces in Nanzhili participated.

In this way, the impact of the arrest is unprecedented.

This night, I don't know how many people woke up from their dreams, and how many people were restless and couldn't sleep.

And Huang Yan, the factory director of the Nadong Detective Factory, although he also has the authority to supervise Jinyiwei on weekdays, the relationship with Na Jigang naturally goes without saying.

There are still some links of interest to a greater or lesser extent.

If it was in normal times, no matter what he said, he would not beat that Ji Gang to death with a stick.

Ventilation is yes.

It won't really let things go this far.

However, there is no way.

This time it was Zhu Di who gave him the order, and it was Zhu Zhanji who specifically assigned him.

These are two of the most awesome three people in the entire Ming Dynasty.

And all the foundations established by the East Factory, like Jinyiwei, come from the imperial power.

Without imperial power, they are an attic in the sky, which can be destroyed in an instant.

This point, he Huang Yan understands better than everyone else.

At the beginning, he sat in the palace from a small eunuch to his current position, and he couldn't have relied on what he relied on.

Zhu Di is the source of his current power, and Zhu Zhanji is the source of power in the future.

These two came forward to give an order together, if he dared to disobey secretly, the subversion of the entire East Factory was just around the corner.

So, running errands is his only option.

And he did show the ability to take care of the house.

In just one night, not only were all the people related to Ji Gang in Nanzhili arrested and sent to the capital, but he also confirmed all the incriminating evidence of these people on the way to the repatriation.

In order to gain the trust and appreciation of Zhu Zhanji, the future emperor.

The old emperor Zhu Di's thoughts about this eldest grandson, can anyone know better than them, the eunuchs who accompany him every day?

From the very beginning, when the eldest grandson came to him, he was respectful and obedient, and did not dare to disobey half a point.

From this point alone, he is much stronger than that Ji Gang.

The turmoil of the night made countless people in the entire Nanzhili not sleep.

But Zhu Zhanji, who is the party concerned, slept very soundly.

It wasn't until the next morning that I stretched comfortably on the bed and got up slowly.

As soon as he walked out of the door, a eunuch from Dongchang came to his side and whispered in his ear: "Your Royal Highness, the servants of the factory have sent a message that the matter has been completed, all the people involved have been returned, and the evidence of the crime has been confirmed, ensuring that no one can find any handle." As for how to deal with it, it all depends on the words of His Highness. ”

Hearing the good news early in the morning, Zhu Zhanji's mood instantly improved several times.

"What about them, where have they been?"

The eunuch of the Dongchang replied: "Back to Your Highness, the farthest distance from the capital is only more than ten miles, and you can arrive before three o'clock at the latest." The factory officials have also arrived in the capital, and are arranging for the detention of the arrested people and completing the arrest documents. ”

Hearing that Huang Yan was so attentive, he took things ahead everywhere, and said with satisfaction: "Tell Huang Yan that he did a good errand this time, and His Royal Highness is very satisfied." ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's instructions, the eunuch of the East Factory hurriedly replied: "The slave takes the order." ”

As soon as the eunuch of the Dongchang factory left, a subordinate of the prince's mansion came to the front again.

"Your Highness!"

Zhu Zhanji turned his head and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Your Highness, the commander of the Jinyi Guard is asking for a meeting outside the mansion."

Hearing this, the corners of Zhu Zhanji's mouth curled slightly, and he said, "Tell him, I don't see it." ”

Hearing this, the subordinate said with some hesitation: "Your Highness, that Ji Gang is kneeling outside the mansion at this time, saying that His Highness will be kneeling all the time if he is gone." ”

engulf

"Oh?" Zhu Zhanji, who heard this, was really interested.

I didn't expect this Ji Gang to really do such a thing.

Maybe it's also because of the joy of waking up from this sleep, after thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji still said: "Let him come in, take him to the living room, I'll go over later." ”
