After a brief discussion, Guo Yingqi, who wanted to make great achievements, wrote a detailed memorial without stopping and went to the cabinet in person to submit it.
When it happened that it was Xu Guangqi again, seeing him looking so impatient, he immediately had him transferred to the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
In recent decades during the Ming Dynasty, Guo Yingqi's memorials were perhaps the fastest to be submitted.5
"This Guo Yingqi has a bright mind. I trust him so much and leave the police department in his hands for no reason."
After reading Guo Yingqi's memorial, Zhu Youxiao was also in a good mood.
He also didn't expect that Guo Yingqi would actually think of using these criminals and gangsters to do something to atone for their sins through work.
Just when Zhu Youxiao was about to talk to him about this matter, he went straight to the memorial and made plans.
This can indeed save him a lot of money and relieve some stress.
"My subordinates said that Wu Dinghou went to the British Duke's mansion and discussed with the British Duke for a long time. Then he returned to the Yamen and settled the matter."
After listening to Wang Chaofu's words, Zhu Youxiao had a general understanding.
It's true that others gave him suggestions and advice, but their evaluation of him seems to be too casual.
However, he did not underestimate Guo Yingqi's thoughts. Being able to ask people for advice when something happened was considered a skill. As long as the errand was done well, he wouldn't care too much about the process.
"Wang Banban, stamp it with a seal of approval and tell Guo Yingqi that I support his method of atonement through work, but he must be controlled by me."
"Don't let these people out and mismanage them, and if they cause any other troubles, I will still hold them accountable."
As the chief eunuch in charge of the ceremony, Wang Chaofu served the emperor every day. He also basically understood the memorials of the ministers, so he naturally knew how much the emperor cared about this matter.
Therefore, he did not dare to neglect it. As soon as the cabinet submitted the memorial, he immediately put it in front of the emperor for review.
"Don't worry, Long Live Lord, I will definitely remind Marquis Wu Ding."
After dealing with Guo Yingqi's case, Zhu Youxiao stopped reading other memorials and asked Wang Chaofu:
"What has Wei Zhongxian been doing these days? I haven't heard from him for a few days."
When the emperor asked about Wei Zhongxian, Wang Chaofu immediately became energetic and replied immediately:
"Wei Zhongxian is worried these days. Things in Shandong have not been settled yet, so he dare not come to see His Majesty."
"The servant sent to Fanzi to report a few days ago, saying that the progress on Cui Yingyuan's side was not very smooth, so he arrested some unimportant men."
"The thing that Long live the Lord told him last time, the plan to drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf, Cui Yingyuan is even more unable to do."
Chao Chaofu and Wei Zhongxian are rivals and have always been fighting for power.
Naturally, he would not let go of this good opportunity to add insult to injury.
Although he also knew that the emperor would not do anything to him, he felt very comfortable after giving him eye drops.
Naturally, Zhu Youxiao would not believe everything Wang Chaofu said.
He still knew what kind of person Wei Zhongxian was. Although he was a greedy villain, he still had loyalty to the royal family.
Besides, he didn't know about the intrigues between the two of them and their personal grudges.
But Zhu Youxiao was still dissatisfied with his efficiency.
Now Yunnan and Huguang are at war, and things have exceeded his expectations.
If chaos breaks out in Shandong again, he will definitely be at his wits end.
As the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes, so the idea of eradicating the Kong family seems to have to wait for another time.
"You go and send me a message, asking him to do it as soon as possible, to nip everything in the cradle. If I send troops to Shandong to quell the rebellion, he, the factory supervisor of the East Factory, will be done."
Hearing that the emperor might remove Wei Zhongxian from his power, Wang Chaofu was also a little excited.
As long as Wei Zhongxian is not in charge of the East Factory, he will be the most powerful eunuch and a veritable ancestor in this palace.
Zhu Youxiao turned around and looked at the map of Huguang again. Although he appeared extremely relaxed, he was still worried inside.
If Huguang was destroyed, it would be very damaging to the Ming Dynasty.
Especially now that he has completely offended those in Southern Zhili, his dependence on Huguang, a major grain-producing province, has further increased.
Therefore, he could only hope that Wu Sheng could put down the rebellion as soon as possible and report his victory back to him.
Now, he can no longer act according to the original historical events and trajectory.
You must completely rely on your own ability and judgment to deal with everything.
Zhu Youxiao only felt that his pressure had doubled.
As the commander in chief of counter-rebellion that Zhu Youxiao valued and appointed, Wu Sheng was naturally not a mediocre person.
During the march, he had been recruiting sergeants. Although the march south was slow, it still saved a lot of time in general.
Before arriving in Huguang, he already had more than 8,000 people under his command, and he had recruited more than 3,000 people.
Including several garrison posts in Huguang, the number of soldiers capable of fighting can exceed 10,000.
Although only half of them were new recruits or military households in the garrison, he still had enough confidence with five thousand Yulin elite soldiers.
It is more than enough to deal with those ragtag Miao thieves.
So after the army took a short rest and adjusted, and after he understood the battle situation and the areas where the rebels were active, Wu Sheng led the army towards the western Hunan region.

…………
Outside Xuanwu Gate, there is a makeshift camp.
Except for some simple tents, there is nothing else.
But here, tens of thousands of people gathered, and these people were the former officials of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division.
Zhang Shize will test these people here, and then select qualified ones to form a city defense army.
Zhang Shize first verified the roster, and then eliminated the old and the weak based on age.
The rest are basically young and middle-aged people, basically between the ages of twenty and thirty-five.
This time, there were more than 20,000 people in the Military and Horse Division, but there were less than 10,000 people who were initially qualified, which shocked Zhang Shize.
Looking at the large number of people being laid off in front of him, Zhang Shize thought about it and said:
"If there are suitable men in your family, you can bring them to me. As long as they are qualified, they can join the city defense army."
They were originally dejected and ready to find another way out, but they were very excited when they learned that they still had the opportunity to receive official food.
He quickly thanked:
"Thank you, young master."
After sending them away, Zhang Shize immediately started preliminary training.
He specially transferred two thousand sergeants from the Yulin Army to be responsible for the training and assessment of these people.
Therefore, under their leadership, progress has been very fast and smooth.
Although His Majesty did not explain to him what the standards for the city defense army were, he still used the standards for the auxiliary barracks.
Therefore, he also attaches great importance to this training and assessment.
After all, this company is now in charge of a single company, and Guo Yingqi has the same idea, they want to achieve great results.
