I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 96 Wang An’s Farewell (Please subscribe)
Jinyiwei and Dongchang, collectively known as Factory Guards, have imperial edicts and prisons. They can arrest, interrogate, execute, and execute officials on their own without going through ordinary judicial institutions. They are important inner court institutions controlled by the emperor.

Luo Sigong is now in charge of Jinyiwei. Although dozens of people headed by Yang Yishan were sent to Liaodong and people were sent to the southwest for reconnaissance, it stands to reason that the number of talents should be much less than before.

But as the saying goes, it is easier to get things done if you have money. Since the emperor allocated 10 taels of funds from internal funds, he has eliminated many false positions and empty salaries. Luo Sigong has recruited many new people with abilities. Although the number is small, the work efficiency is higher than before. A lot.

And Dongchang is now even more famous outside. In order to gain Zhu Youxiao's trust, Wei Zhongxian was determined to act as a lone minister to work for Zhu Youxiao. He first surrounded the residence of Zheng Yangxing, the son of his uncle Zheng Guotai, and forced him to hand over more than 90 yuan. Ten thousand taels of stolen money.

Later, he cooperated with Chen Liangbi to inspect the capital camp. He had no control over the soldiers and the eunuchs, but under his strict investigation, the eunuchs who were paid empty wages spit out a lot of money. In the end, the houses of the two Chen brothers were ransacked and the account books were found. , now I am afraid that many nobles and eunuchs in the palace are gnashing their teeth in hatred towards him.

Zhu Youxiao felt that the two were close, so he met them directly at Licaolanchang.

"I really want to tell you why I only found out about the matters in Beijing Camp after listening to Marquis Taining and Duke Cheng. Are you blind or deaf?"

Seeing the two of them, Zhu Youxiao cursed directly.

The two of them also looked helpless. The emperor had entrusted Chen Liangbi with full authority on this matter, and he had not asked them to report it at any time. Now that Chen Liangbi did not do a good job, he blamed them.

"Long live my lord, this servant deserves to die. I am a eunuch. In order to rectify the capital camp, I can only help Marquis Taining deal with some of the constraints of the inner court. I can't take care of other things. Besides, those who make trouble rely on someone behind them, which is not very good." If you are afraid of me, you will not be afraid of me."

Wei Zhongxian was the first to react. Don't complain at this time, admit your mistake first. Everything the emperor says is right.

"Who is behind these rebels and why are they so arrogant? I will arrange a mission for you now to find out who is behind these rebels."

Luo Sigong has served as the commander of the Jinyi Guards for many years, and he is also from a noble background, so he understands the relationship behind this matter best.

He can probably guess that since he is not afraid of Marquis Taining, the governor of the capital, at least his title is higher than that of Marquis Taining, and he also has a high position. Otherwise, he would not have such great strength and courage to do these things, but tomorrow he will review the three major Camp, it’s really too late to check now, and I’m afraid there won’t be any results, so I made a suggestion:
"Your Majesty, I feel that it is too late to check the people behind. Tomorrow, Your Majesty will inspect the Beijing camp. I am afraid that there will be rebels who will continue to cause trouble to threaten Your Majesty."

"He dares! Long live my lord, tomorrow I will ask you to personally guard you. If anyone dares to disturb your majesty, he will step over your body."

As soon as Luo Sigong's words came out, Wei Zhongxian was furious. Among all the people in the court, he least wanted Zhu Youxiao to be injured. Not to mention that Zhu Youxiao had been under his care for many years, and now that he had just entered the ceremonial department, he had offended him again. With so many people killed, if Zhu Youxiao makes any mistakes, he will probably be eliminated soon.

"Okay, why are you threatening me? Don't worry, I've asked Chen Liangbi to transfer his new training camp to the school. Everything will be fine.

Besides, you saw these training sergeants when we entered the pen just now. They will protect me and nothing can go wrong. What you have to do now is not to protect me, but to find the culprit behind it. I don’t want to delay. It will be completed in one battle tomorrow. "

When the two heard this, they also felt that this was reasonable, but time was too tight, and it was indeed difficult to find conclusive evidence, so they were thinking of ways to do it.

Zhu Youxiao had an idea in mind. When he saw them being silent, he didn't want to waste time and said directly:
"I don't believe those soldiers who caused the rebellion, especially the leaders who caused the rebellion, are all clean. Aren't you Jinyiwei and Dongchang the best at investigating and interrogating people?

Chen Liangbi also arrested some ringleaders at that time. You will interrogate them rigorously and find evidence that they have been greedy for free money and corrupt the law over the years. It would be better if you could tell who found them!With this evidence, I can arrest people openly and honestly!Remember, I only want results and evidence! "

As soon as they said this, the two of them understood, and they immediately understood that who couldn't torture and extract confessions by torture? Dongchang was best at this.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao didn't want to use this trick. Why not just capture the leaders of these noisy soldiers? It's simple and direct!
It's just that this move is not suitable for use here. He knows in his heart that if the person behind him is not captured, there will be another wave if he is captured now. Only by knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger can these nobles be afraid.

After the two understood, they nodded quickly to express their understanding. Time was urgent, so Zhu Youxiao did not let them stay and let them go on errands.

After all these arrangements, Zhu Youxiao felt a little tired, so he asked He Ning to take over the palace.

He was thinking as he walked. He didn't summon anyone in the cabinet for the past two days. I think the courtiers would be anxious if they knew about this, and they would write a memorial instructing him not to go.

Zhu Youxiao didn't want to pay attention to them. He would wait until the end of tomorrow to talk about anything. As long as the matter could be completed, it didn't hurt to let them make a few noises.

When he returned to Qianqing Palace, he saw Wang An already waiting in the palace.

Why is he here? Zhu Youxiao is a little confused.

Wang An has always been in poor health, so Zhu Youxiao allowed him to rest more. He did not have to go to the Supervisor of Ceremonies to run errands every day, and only Zhang Chang and He Ning could serve him.

"Why are you here, my dear friend? How is your health lately? Didn't I tell you to take good care of yourself and recuperate?"

"Ahem, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. My health has been better these days than before. I feel guilty that I have not served Your Majesty with all my heart for many days, so I hastened to wait in front of the Emperor."

"Go to Nuange quickly, don't catch a cold."

Looking at Wang An's weak body, Zhu Youxiao was concerned and angry at the same time. It was obvious what his purpose was for coming here despite being so weak.In Nuan Pavilion, Zhu Youxiao asked Zhang Chang to take care of Wang An. Zhu Youxiao had complicated thoughts about him.

Although Wang An has been serving Guangzong all year round, he is still good to himself. Especially when he came to the throne, he had the merit of supporting him. People are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless, so Zhu Youxiao also trusts him very much and regards him as a check. Wei Zhongxian's tools.

But now he also discovered why Zhu Youxiao was able to depose Wang An so quickly under Wei Zhongxian's instigation in history. The main reason was that as an eunuch, he was not of the same mind as him, but was very close to the civil servants. .

He thought it was nothing before, but he became increasingly dissatisfied after discovering that Wang An had leaked information to courtiers several times.

This made him unknowingly start to be wary of him.Just because he wants to reuse noble generals, the civil servants will definitely be dissatisfied. If the senior companion around him leaks information about himself to the court officials every day, then what secrets does he have?

This is why he met Luo Sigong and Wei Zhongxian at Licaolanchang just now. At the same time, when he saw Wang An, he began to guess whether the cabinet Liu Yishui and others were already on their way to Qianqing Palace.

I just hope that my guess is correct. If it is true, then I will be completely disappointed with Wang An.

"My dear friend, I transferred Wei Zhongxian to the position of Supervisor of Ceremonies some time ago. I heard that he was illiterate when he entered the palace before. The Supervisor of Ceremonies is a place where he is good at writing and writing. I guess he is not very used to it and whether he has caused any trouble. What a joke."

Wang An did not explain his purpose, and Zhu Youxiao also chatted with him.

"Haha, Eunuch Wei is still very loyal and dedicated. A few days ago, he was the first to come and the last to leave. The servants often entrusted him with some things to criticize. He is now a lot more skilled. It's just that But in recent days, he has been busy with things in Dongchang, so he comes less often."

"It's good to be proficient, but I think there are only three of you, Zou Yi, and Wei Zhongxian, the eunuchs of the Supervisor of Ceremonies. You are not feeling well now, Zou Yi is also old, and Wei Zhongxian is in charge of the East Factory. The Supervisor of Ceremonies is Work is extremely important, but it is not possible in this situation. It seems that we need to add a few more talents."

Wang An had already had this idea, and actually had a candidate in mind. When he saw Zhu Youxiao raising this question, he immediately accepted it.

"What your Majesty said is, how about I go back and discuss with Zou Yi, Wei Zhongxian and others and provide your Majesty with a reference? What do you think?"

"Okay, you can make a list and show it to me. At the same time, show me the list of eunuchs in charge of the 24 yamen in the inner court, and I will choose a few suitable ones."

If I let you decide, they are all still yours, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but complained in his heart, he might as well choose by himself.

When Wang An heard this, his expression paused, and his haggard and sickly old face showed a slight wry smile. At this moment, he already knew in his heart that the emperor no longer trusted him, so he could only reply helplessly:
"Okay, then this slave will obey His Majesty's will."

When Zhu Youxiao saw that he had agreed, he didn't say much. After a while, He Ning came in from the outside, quietly lowered his head and glanced at Wang An, then knelt down to Zhu Youxiao and reported:

"Your Majesty, cabinet ministers Liu Yishen, Han Xu, and Shen Guan are asking for an audience outside the palace!"

Sure enough, he guessed it. Zhu Youxiao was full of disappointment at this time. He looked at Wang An and said expressionlessly:

"Go out and tell them that I'm tired from going to the school grounds to review the Beijing camp tomorrow. I want to rest early so I won't see them. Let's wait until tomorrow to talk about anything else."

Seeing that the atmosphere in Nuan Pavilion was a bit strange, He Ning did not dare to say anything and hurriedly went out to deliver the order.

Wang An sighed inwardly. He was the one who informed Liu Yishen and others because he didn't want Zhu Youxiao to be in such danger. The Ming Dynasty had already lost two emperors this year, and he didn't want anything to happen to Zhu Youxiao. Why did the emperor I feel so disgusted all of a sudden.

After a while, He Ning came in and reported that Liu Yishen and others went back after hearing the words, but each handed over a memorial.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at the memorial that was handed to him, took it and threw it directly on the table. He knew the content of chewing the belt without looking at it.

"That's it for today. I'm tired too. My dear, you're not in good health. Don't move around much in the future. Just focus on recuperating. All you need to do is submit the list you made with Zou Yi and others."

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao issued an order to expel guests, Wang An's expression became more and more depressed and confused, and he stood up tremblingly.

"Your Majesty, it's windy outside, don't go out too much, and be careful of your dragon body to avoid catching the wind and cold. You're still growing, so don't work too hard.

He Ning is smart and Zhang Chang is loyal and honest. If anything happens, don't overwork yourself. Do everything yourself and leave it to them. Your Majesty will be in good health and this old slave will feel at ease even if he dies. "

After saying that, he moved slowly and kowtowed to Zhu Youxiao slowly. Zhu Youxiao also looked at him expressionlessly and nodded heavily.
