The things that Ning Heng did in the year when he was the prime minister, Qin Zheng had also heard of it.

However, Qin Zheng asked Wang Hai about Ning Heng at this time, and he had other ideas.

"Wang Hai, this minister of the DPRK and China, who is closest to Ning Heng?"

This question is not difficult for Wang Hai to answer:

"Your Majesty, Ning Heng has a lot of comrades in the court, and seventy percent of the ministers have gathered around him to become a party member, but who is closest to him......"

Wang Hai pondered it carefully, and told Qin Zheng extremely cautiously:

"Ning Heng was able to quickly control the court in this year and install his cronies, mainly through the hands of Xie Jing, the secretary of the ministry, if it were not for Xie Jing's strong help,

He really couldn't let his minions spread all over the court and Dakang in a year. ”

Xie Jing, the secretary of the ministry?

Qin Zheng searched his mind for information about this person.

This person was promoted to the rank of official secretary by the first emperor a few years ago.

is also an old minister of the two dynasties.

Ning Heng got Xie Jing, the secretary of the ministry, and it would be much easier to install his cronies in the court and Dakang.

"If you want to weaken Ning Heng's strength in a short period of time, you have to take down this Xie Jing."

Qin Zheng's fingers tapped on the dragon case in front of him, and he was thinking about the plan in his mind.

"Xie Jing can be regarded as the power weapon in Ning Heng's hand, if he can cut off this sharp weapon without knowing it, it is equivalent to cutting off one of his hands and hitting him by seven inches.

If you can secretly control Xie Jing, you can not only get the core information of Ning Heng, but also have a clearer insight into Ning Heng's next move, which is very cost-effective! ”

After pondering for a while, Qin Zheng felt that this method would work, as long as it was operated properly, it could have an unexpected effect.

Qin Zheng is very clear.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible to bring down Ning Heng in a short period of time.

Rather than clash with him head-on, it is better to weaken his power from the side.

can also gradually grasp the initiative of the imperial court.

Thinking about this clearly, Qin Zheng instructed Wang Hai:

"Wang Hai, you go and bring all the information about Xie Jing that the Detective Department has found, including his students, clansmen and relatives, and the information on corruption and bribery over the years.

I want to see how much ability this Xie Jing has to become a weapon in Ning Heng's hands. ”

Wang Hai nodded and ordered:

"The minister will go to the Detective Department to obtain Xie Jing's information for His Majesty's consultation."

After Wang Hai finished speaking, he planned to turn around and leave.

was stopped by Qin Zheng:

"Wait, I have a few more things to do."

Wang Hai stopped and bowed down to receive the order:

"Your Majesty, please."

Qin Zheng sat on the dragon chair, pondered for a few breaths, and instructed Wang Hai:

"Your colleague who obtained Xie Jing's information also brought the information of officials above the fifth rank of the imperial court, especially those who are extremely corrupt, and I want to check them one by one."

It is necessary to replenish the treasury by killing corrupt officials.

Then you have to be prepared.

You can't kill indiscriminately.

There were nearly 100 officials of the imperial court above the fifth rank in Gyeonggi alone, and it took some time to read their information.

But compared to the benefits that the next plan will bring if it is successful.

It's worth the time.

When Wang Hai heard Qin Zheng's words, his expression suddenly turned grim:

"There are nearly 100 officials above the fifth grade in the imperial court, what does Your Majesty want the information of these people? Could it be that there is something big that can't be done? ”

Wang Hai had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask more, just do it:

"The minister will send these materials to His Majesty later, for His Majesty to consult."

After Qin Zheng arranged a few things for Wang Hai, he instructed him with a serious expression:

"Compared with the above things, there is another more important thing for you to do, and you have to hurry up and do it, and you must do it in a short time."

Wang Hai suddenly looked straight and said:

"Please instruct Your Majesty, and the minister will do it according to Your Majesty's requirements."

Qin Zheng nodded and looked at Wang Hai.

The next incident is also to examine his ability to do things, and it is a test for him.

"Wang Hai, how many people are currently in the Detective's Mansion?"

As the head of the Detective's Office, Wang Hai has been in charge for nearly ten years, and he is also extremely familiar with the affairs of the Detective's Mansion:

"Your Majesty, the number of people in the Detective's Mansion has been maintained at about 10,000.

Including 5,000 "palace guards" and 5,000 "detective divisions".

In addition to the civilian officers who handle daily affairs, the real number of personnel in the Detective Division is about 4,500, and the personnel of the Detective Division can only operate in Gyeonggi.

In general, the manpower is relatively sufficient. ”

After listening to Wang Hai's report, Qin Zheng shook his head:

"The number of people is still a bit small, and in order to spread the spies of the Detective Office to all counties in Dakang, we must expand the manpower."

After Wang Hai heard Qin Zheng's words, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes were shocked, and then he was happy.

He was keenly aware that the Detective's Mansion might usher in a great opportunity.

Wang Hai did not hide his inner guess, and cautiously asked Qin Zheng:

"Your Majesty, I listen to your intentions, you plan to expand the Detective Division, and the scope of its activities is not limited to Gyeonggi, but to expand to all parts of Dakang?"

looked at Wang Hai's inquiring expression.

Qin Zheng also had to deny that his mind was very active and his sense of smell was very sensitive.

Qin Zheng didn't blame Wang Hai for thinking about his intentions at will, but told him bluntly:

"You guessed correctly, I do have this intention, and you must be aware of the current predicament that Dakang is facing, if you can't control the dynamics of the clans in Dakang at any time,

I and the imperial court will be in a passive position, and it will be extremely difficult for me to stabilize this stormy Dakang Jiangshan Sheji. ”

After understanding why Qin Zheng wanted to expand the purpose of the "Detective Division".

Wang Hai is also very supportive of it.

But he was also worried.

Once the ministers of the imperial court knew that the Qin government wanted to break the ancestral system established by Emperor Taizong that "the personnel of the Detective Department should not leave the land of Gyeonggi".

They will be vehemently opposed.

If it is not done well, it will plunge the already unstable court into turmoil.

Wang Hai voiced his concerns:

"Your Majesty, Emperor Taizong founded the "Detective Division" back then, and set the ancestral system of "Detective Division personnel are not allowed to leave the land of Gyeonggi", if Your Majesty wants to break this ancestral system,

Once known to the ministers of the court, the consequences will be unimaginable, and please think twice. ”

Wang Hai's worries, of course Qin Zheng thought of it.

He smiled indifferently and said:

"How could I not have imagined your concerns, I have no intention of changing Emperor Taizong's ancestral system for the time being, I want you to secretly set up a new office in the Detective's Mansion,

This new office can be reorganized directly from the "Detective Division" without much effort. ”

Qin Zheng's answer made Wang Hai a little puzzled:

"The new office?"

Looking at Wang Hai with a confused face, Qin Zheng explained:

"That's right, the name of the new office department has already been thought of, let's call it "Jinyiwei". ”
