On September 26 of the ninth year of Emperor Nidi, Zhang Bu issued an edict of the Gongdan Empire, and at the order of the Empress Dowager Niangniang, he hereby supervised the country and the Cheng to inspect the same situation, build a government and machine government, and directly obey the orders of the Empress Dowager. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info This means that in addition to the king and the prime minister, the government can investigate, and once the official positions below the supervision are clear, they can correct the law on the spot, and even raid the house.
To Wentu's great surprise, the Queen Mother made a long decision, with Princess Fu Rou as the governor of the government and the government, in charge of all matters of the government, Wentu as the deputy governor, under his strong recommendation, Nie Liang officially entered the palace, became the head of the government and became the third in command. The Queen Mother once again pushed her children to the top of the showdown......
There was a lot of discussion in the court, and I didn't know what this government was going to do.
Behind the palace, a building was requisitioned, and there were big bronzing words on the card: Government Machine!
Wen Tu stood under the huge plaque, and his thoughts were myriad: fortunately, he and Fu Rou were shuttlers, otherwise this eunuch-like position might really be in charge of the country and disrupt the government!
"Governor Wenfu!" a chill hit.
Wentu took a fixed look, and hurriedly leaned over and saluted: "See the prince for his humble duties!"
King Bin looked at Wentu slightly, did not show any expression, and was just about to enter the mansion, Fu Rou had already walked out of it, and exclaimed with a smile: "Fu'er is waiting for the third brother of the third king, which is this festive third brother, is it an inspection, or is there a will?"
King Bin didn't smile, and said lightly: "Isn't it because you don't have official business, can't you come to visit your sister because of your brother?"
"Where are the words!" Fu Rou was embarrassed to laugh again, "The Lord of the Prison Country has a lot of political affairs, and the queen mother keeps praising her whole mouth, and the little sister thinks you don't dare to be lazy......"
"The little mouth is sharp!" King Bin opened his mouth to laugh, but there was only a shape and no sound, "Brother and you are loyal to the great dynasty, but also for the queen mother, saying that the public is also private, this government has just been built, the elder brother is afraid that the road ahead is difficult to walk, so he came to take a look, but also instructed and instructed, the court is peaceful, the world is vibrant, the harem will be as quiet as ever, once you go the wrong way, make the chicken and dog restless, I am not good to be the brother of the prison country, and the queen mother is not clean." ”
"Brother Sanwang is right," Fu Rou stopped her smile and made a serious appearance, "The little sister must be the governor of this mansion, and if she has her brother as the supervisor of the country, she will not look at Wang Mei making mistakes!"
After the king of Bin finished beating, he said no more, glanced at Wentu again indifferently and carefully, and turned to leave.
Fu Rou peeked at Wentu in the sunlight, blue brocade draped, yellow hair floating behind her head, with a gold wire cross belt wrapped around her waist, standing obliquely with the imperial sword, very majestic, and asked in her heart: "Wen Waiter, no, Governor Wenfu, this government was established by you trying your best to persuade the queen mother, I don't know what you mean, what do you want to do first?"
"Back to the princess," Wentu narrowed his eyes and leaned into the distance, "There is only one purpose at present, to protect the remnants of Gongzi Pan's ......"
"Hu ......" Fu Rou just wanted to scold, but suddenly realized that his identity was not what he used to be, and saw Nie Liang enter the government office, "Bold, Gongzi Pan is full of crimes, he should be killed, if there is a fellow party, he should distinguish between good and evil, and eliminate evil and rebellion, how can he protect it?"
Wentu did not refute, he understood the Queen Mother's intentions, and the reason why he agreed to set up the government machine government was nothing more than to try his best to control King Bin and prevent him from becoming too successful. Of course, once defeated and unable to suppress King Bin, the Queen Mother will not hesitate to use King Bin to protect the dynasty.
"Princess," Nie Liang was still frowning, cold and solemn, "The government has received many secret reports, most of which involve important officials in the DPRK and China, I don't know where to start now?"
Fu Rou looked at Wentu blankly, unable to answer for a while, and she didn't know the wishes of the Queen Mother and Wentu.
Wentu said indifferently: "Nie Zhangshi, you can sift through the secret report to see if there are any people promoted by the third prince who have committed crimes." ”
"Yes!" Nie Liang turned and left.
Fu Rou was greatly puzzled, and asked nervously, "Governor Wenfu, what do you mean?"
"The princess doesn't know, although the former prince Pan did a lot of evil, but the people who reuse it are by no means all prodigals, now that the three princes are in power, it is inevitable that the ministers of their cronies will bully others, intending to suppress the old department, killing and purging, in order to prevent the dominance of the family, there is a group of young birds in the mouth of the old prince, it is this political machine house, our real purpose is to maintain the old ministry of the prince Pan, and suppress the ill-intentioned people promoted by the three princes!"
"Ha!" Fu Rou sneered, showing an angry look, "It's funny to say, it was you who single-handedly sent the traitor son Pan to prison," said and gritted his teeth, after all, it was her father's killer, "Now that he has begun to maintain his power, isn't it ridiculous to slap himself in the mouth!"
Wentu secretly smiled bitterly, it was true, so he had to mutter: "Everything is forced by the situation, and I hope the princess will be fulfilled." ”
At this time, Nie Liang turned around and said: "Governor Wenfu, there is indeed a secret report from the Government and the Government of the Government, accusing Xin Lai, the deputy general of the Military Affairs Office, of privately soliciting the hearts of the soldiers, appointing officials without authorization, and intending to rebel! ”
"Just check him!" Wentu swore an oath, suddenly feeling that he had trespassed, and looked at Fu Rou nervously, "Princess?"
Fu Rou looked at Wentu helplessly, and then at Nie Liang, seeing that the two of them had the same mind, she said vaguely: "Then check it out......"
In an instant, Wentu and Nie Liang led a group of warriors and horses to run out of the capital, under the horses' hooves, the loess was flying, and what they were carrying was the fate of the entire Great Dynasty, the current highest authority in the world!
Jincheng, ninety miles east of Kyoto. This is a great success, with a radius of several hundred miles, fertile land, developed commerce, attracting countless merchants and nobles, and the largest number of troops in Beijing, as many as 300,000 people.
Wentu and his entourage soon arrived at the governor's mansion, and at a glance they knew that this place was rich and rivaled by the country, the momentum was magnificent, the palace hall was innumerable, the building was tall and luxurious, and the stone steps were as high as several zhang, which was comparable to a small palace.
"Lord Wen, please!" the overseer hurriedly greeted him, but his eyelids lowered, he didn't expect such a person to come to the feet of King Bin, and his fat body kept shaking.
A few people entered the hall and sat down, and Wen Tu asked straight to the point: "Lord Supervisor, by the order of the Queen Mother, Wen came to inquire about some things in the army, and I hope to tell the truth, so I can go back and give you details." ”
"Ask, ask, how dare this official lie?" Although the words were respectful, the old inspector was stunned.
Wentu glanced at Nie Liang, and Nie Liang immediately asked: "Lord Inspector, the Military Affairs Office has allocated 36,000 weapons this year, but I don't know why there are only less than 10,000 Jincheng soldiers in the warehouse, and at the beginning of the year, the Military Affairs Office ruled that Jincheng soldiers were brave 250,000, I don't know how many soldiers are in this city at the moment?"
The overseer was just about to exert his authority, but when he looked at the past, he found Nie Liang's cold and frightened expression, and lowered his tone and replied: "As for the weapons, some of them were directly distributed to the Taoist soldiers before they were put into storage;
Nie Liang glanced at Wentu, stood up suddenly, and asked in a deep voice: "How can this be reasonable, the soldiers are not put into the warehouse, and they are sent privately, so are these people holding weapons soldiers of the imperial dynasty, or are they the legs of your guards?
"This official has always been cautious, and he will never dare to trespass, as for the details, I also ask Lord Wen and Nie Zhangshi to ask General Xin of the Military Affairs Mansion, don't be embarrassed to go to the official......" The supervisor was stunned at first, and then looked at the two of them with contempt.
Wentu stopped his gaze on the soldiers outside the hall, and said casually: "Lord Governor, so General Xin Lai privately raised 50,000 soldiers and horses and stored them in Jincheng, and also ordered you to distribute all the new soldiers and soldiers to them this year, this is a strange thing, if it is peaceful today, why do the court officials secretly support the soldiers?"
"Master Wen!" the guard's body stopped shaking, and he wiped the beads of sweat from his sideburns in a panic, "You can't talk nonsense, the general has his own arrangements, maybe it's a reinforcement for other cities, or don't embarrass the official!"
Wentu didn't bother to quibble with this overseer, and ordered in a deep voice: "The Jincheng overseer supports the troops without authorization, intending to rebel and take it!"
"Yes!" Nie Liang and the others responded.
"Slow!" The overseer suddenly became nervous, suddenly thought of something, and shouted loudly, "Someone, send off!" Instantly, a group of soldiers rushed into the main hall, and when they saw Nie Liang and other warriors showing their weapons, they also took out their blades.
There was tension in the governor's mansion, and the people of the government and the government were facing off against the soldiers.
After a moment, Wen Tu said sharply: "The government is ordered by the Empress Dowager to investigate and deal with the private soldiers in Jincheng, and resist killing them on the spot!"
Nie Liang approached the guard step by step, and some soldiers rushed up to protect the guard, they thought that no matter how big the government was, they would never do anything in Jincheng.
"Kill!" Wentu became angry, and the aggressive momentum of the Queen Mother suddenly appeared in his mind, as if she was shouting this word, he finally understood that he had to do it for the king and the emperor.
Before the warriors of the government and the government could make a move, Nie Liang floated over with a sword light, and the soldiers standing in front of the overseer fell down one after another! With this creepy shouting order and the words of the empress dowager, the people after him fell back one after another, presenting the overseer in the center of the main hall.
"You ...... You ......" the Overseer was furious, his lips trembling, "I will sue you, and I will impeach you and ...... to the Prison Lord."
Wentu snatched the long sword from the hand of a warrior, raised it angrily, and said slowly: "I'm afraid it's not your turn to speak, the governor of this mansion will ask for your dog's life for the queen mother now!"
Under the edge of the sword, the guard knelt on the ground with a thud, but he didn't expect the people in the government to be so ruthless!
"Lord Wen, the lower officials are honest......"
That night, in the Xin Mansion in the capital, Hula rushed into a group of people, shouting loudly: "The government is investigating the matter, and no one can stop it!" Xin Lai looked at Nie Liang with disdain, and almost laughed out loud, a small master, the official was one rank lower, and he dared to ask the deputy general's mansion, and began to think about how to impeach and remove the person who looked like a beautiful scholar in front of him.
"Do you know this is Xin Mansion?" Xin Lai asked slowly.
