This is the theme of today’s father-son conversation.
Zhu Gaojie made military exploits in Jiaozhi. Although he essentially got what he wanted - military power in the southwest. But in fact, this was not considered a reward from Zhu Di, so Zhu Gaojie was still qualified to ask Zhu Di for one.
Not too much of a reward.
If it were anyone else, how would he have the courage to ask for a reward from the emperor? The emperor's favor is the greatest reward, but Zhu Gaojie has never been someone else, he is a person different from the rest of the world.
In his eyes, Zhu Di is now a magic lamp that can make wishes, but this magic lamp can only make one wish, and this wish cannot be too outrageous.
"Jinyiwei." Zhu Gaojie slowly said what he wanted.
Zhu Di frowned slightly: "I can't give you this, so I'll give you another one."
Jinyiwei is the eagle dog of the imperial court, and the emperor will never let go.
Zhu Di was well versed in the art of balance. He used the prince to check the king of Han and King Zhao. He also used the king of Han and King Zhao to balance the prince to prevent one party from becoming bigger. Now that the king of Han has no military power, only the prince and the three guards are left.
Being suppressed by the princelings, Ji Gang, the commander of Jinyiwei, is a party of the King of Han and can help the King of Han to fight against the prince.
Giving the Jin Yiwei to Zhu Gaojie was equivalent to destroying the arm of the King of Han, and it was impossible for Zhu Di to do this.
Even though he had begun to dislike the King of Han in his heart.
Zhu Gaojie shrugged: "Forget it, since the emperor is not willing, I have nothing else to ask for."
Zhu Di's face darkened: "If you don't use this trick, Jin Yiwei really can't give it to you."
"But..." the old man changed the topic, "The position of the Beizhen Fusi of Jinyiwei is now vacant. You can choose someone who can handle the matter and take over the Beizhen Fusi Yamen temporarily."
Jinyiwei is a huge organization, and it is not just the Zhenfu Division. At its peak, it had seventeen offices and two directly subordinate departments, namely the Experience Department and the Zhenfu Division.
The army of the Ming Dynasty implemented a guard system, which can be simply understood as soldiers from all over the country were organized into various guard posts. Generally, a post was set up in one government and guards were set up in several prefectures, and the Jinyi Guard was no exception.
The level below the guard is the director, and the level below the director is the department.
Judging from the level, Jinyiwei Town Fusi is not as high as Seventeen. Seventeen belong to the thousand-household level, and each office is under the jurisdiction of ten divisions. Zhenfusi is between a hundred households and a thousand households, but this
The departments are special and cannot be compared.
When Emperor Taizu Gao Zhu Yuanzhang established Jinyiwei, there was only one Zhenfu Division. Later, Zhu Di conquered the country and added the North Town Fu Division. The Jinyiwei Zhenfu Division was divided into the North and South Town Divisions.
Among them, Nanzhen Fusi is responsible for military discipline and punishment within Jinyiwei, military craftsman file management, etc., and manages his own people; while Beizhen Fusi is responsible for the supervision, arrest, and torture of hundreds of officials. Those who are unhappy are directly beheaded.
Basically, they perform special tasks and manage people outside.
The infamous imperial prison is a specialty of Fusi, Beizhen. Most of the people who can enter the imperial prison of Beisi are well-known big shots before they come, but when they get there, they have to be beaten into preserved eggs. They enter vertically and exit horizontally.
.
There are many kinds of packages in the imperial prison, including skinning, breaking the spine, chopping fingers, stabbing the heart, piercing the brain...a torture gift package, where the living people are interrogated and turned into dead people, and the corpses are continued to be whipped after death. In short, Beizhen Fusi
It's a terrifying place where people kill without blinking an eye, eat people without spitting out their bones, and even squeeze their blood into juice.
As the emperor's needs increased, the tasks and status of the Bei Division increased. Some dirty things began to occur. The emperor just wanted to let the Zhenfu Division know that even the commander of the Jin Yiwei had no right to interfere.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Zhu Gaojie was immediately overjoyed and quickly kowtowed to express his gratitude.
He never thought of taking over the Kinyiwei from the beginning. With Nizuna, the executioner, standing on top of him, it was unrealistic to just pack up the Kinyiwei and take him away.
This is actually a means of business negotiation. It originated from the negotiation tactics of vegetable sellers in the vegetable market. They first demand a high price and then slowly bargain.
If Zhu Gaojiu wanted the Fusi of Beizhen from the very beginning, Zhu Di might only give him the experience department or the Qianhu Office. However, Zhu Gaojiu asked for the position of Jinyiwei commander by name as soon as he came up.
Zhenfusi doesn’t seem to be too much.
"Look at your virtue." Zhu Di smiled and said, "Who do you plan to let to sit in the position of Fusi Town Fushi in Beizhen? Is there anyone who can choose? Do you want me to pick one for you?"
"Come on, let you pick one for me? Isn't this just putting nails in my side!" Zhu Gaojie complained in his heart, but did not say it out loud.
He said sternly: "I already have a candidate for you."
"Oh, do you have a candidate?" Zhu Di asked with interest, "Who is it?"
Zhu Gaojie said without thinking: "The commander of the vanguard camp of the Southern Expeditionary Army is Lu Chaoyang."
"Lu Chaoyang?" Zhu Di thought for a while and asked, "Is he the son of Lu Shouzhong, the former commander of the Guangxi Dusi Dusi?"
The hairs on Zhu Gaojie's body stood up: "Do you know Lu Chaoyang?"
This is a bit outrageous, old man.
Lu Chaoyang, a low-ranking official of the sixth rank, can remember everything clearly, and can even explain his family background clearly?
Zhu Di smiled and said: "The Jiang family in Guangxi is a family of generals. Their old man Jiang was the former commander-in-chief of the Guangxi Dusi. Later, the eldest son of the Jiang family, Jiang Shuzi, inherited his father's legacy and became the current commander-in-chief of the Guangxi Dusi.
My son Jiang Yi holds the important position of deputy commander-in-chief in the Southern Expeditionary Army. I will not pay attention to a small person like Lu Chaoyang, but I do remember the affairs of the Lu family. Because Lu Chaoyang offended the Jiang family, his father Lu Shouzhong was dismissed from office." Zhu Gaojie's brain turned rapidly, and he quickly understood the meaning of Zhu Di's move.
The Jiang family controlled the military power of the province of Guangxi with two generations of Guangxi capital commanders. The Lu family's affairs at that time were a stain on the Jiang family. Some dirty methods were used to drag Lu Shouzhong, the Guangxi capital commander, into trouble.
Get off the horse. Zhu Di knew about this, but always pretended that he didn't know. He could use this stain at any time to destroy the Jiang family!
What the hell... the old man is so dirty!
No wonder a little guy like Lu Chaoyang can still survive under the influence of the Jiang family. Zhu Di is behind the secret manipulation of the relationship!
He wants to keep Lu Chaoyang's life, and when he becomes unhappy one day and sees that the Jiang family is displeased, he will directly throw Lu Chaoyang out as a tainted witness, which will justifiably bring about the collapse of the Jiang family!
It is estimated that Lu Chaoyang himself did not know that a small person like him was lucky enough to be treated as a spy by the emperor.
I don’t know how many secrets like Lu Chaoyang the old man has in his hands...
Horrible thieves!
Zhu Di said leisurely: "The matter of Beizhen Fusi has been settled."
"I thank the emperor!" Zhu Gaojie stood up and saluted, "If nothing happens, I will leave first."
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Di suddenly stopped him.
"Is there anything else that the emperor has not yet explained?" Zhu Gaojie was a little confused.
"You are really not polite to me when you just leave after taking the benefits." Zhu Di said with complicated eyes, "Before you get married to a girl from the British government, you and she should go to... the Great Baoen Temple."
After hearing "Da Baoen Temple", Zhu Gaojie fell silent.
