"Boss, have you heard about Zhang Qianhu? By acting like this, doesn't it break the rules of our Jinyiwei?"
"The records over there are very clear in the file. Everyone can see that Lu Hongzhi of the Lu family must have some connection with the Beggar Clan."
"Zhang Qianhu just went there and came back without even being interrogated."
In the Jinyiwei Yamen, in Song Zhong's office lobby, a member of the household reported to him.
Jin Yiwei's rules for running errands do not mean that he can do whatever he wants. He has a set of rules and regulations and detailed procedures.
Moreover, all case-handling processes must be recorded in detail and then stored in the Dating Book Library, with a dedicated person responsible for sorting and managing the case.
To facilitate calling and review.
Hearing this, Song Zhong frowned.
Naturally, he was not unfamiliar with Zhang San at all. He was a close confidant of His Highness Taisun. Currently he only had a temporary position in Jinyiwei, and he did not show up much on weekdays. His salary was paid according to the truth.
When he came here, Song Zhong was a little worried that Zhang San would compete with him for the position of commander of the Imperial Guards, but as time went by, he became more relaxed.
While thinking in his mind, Song Zhong hesitated a little, and then said after a moment: "Bring the file to me quickly and have a look at it."
The hundred households received the order and hurriedly went to Huangceku to call it.
It didn't take long to get the file.
After Song Zhong took it, he began to read it carefully. However, as the reading progressed, his brows became more and more wrinkled.
There is no doubt that Zhang San's procedure did not comply with the rules of the Jinyiwei Yamen at all. Literally, it could even be said that he was using power for personal gain.
This is a serious crime in Jinyiwei Yamen.
Because of the hereditary system and the direct relationship with the emperor, the procedures and rules are in the yamen, but the relatives are not recognized, and the system is iron-clad.
If anyone violates the rules, as soon as he is discovered, depending on the severity of the situation, he will be dismissed from his post and investigated at the earliest.
If it is serious, the whole family will be executed.
It doesn't matter if you find some money or water outside or get some small profits occasionally, but if there is a problem with the errands, there will be no small problems.
Song Zhong felt very difficult to deal with at this moment.
On one side are the rules of Jinyiwei, which were formulated by the current emperor himself.
On one side are His Highness Taisun's cronies, who have followed him for many years.
If this three is his opponent, then there is no need to say anything, and he will naturally hand it over directly.
But Zhang San had no grievances against him. He even drank twice before and never caused any trouble to him.
Is it worth offending His Highness the Grand Sun for this rule?
Seeing the struggle on the face of Song Zhenfu, the hundred households said: "Boss, this is no small matter. The most important thing is that now all the brothers know about it."
"A brother like Zhang Qianhu acted too high-profile and didn't hide anything at all. His subordinates also heard from them that Zhang Qianhu had a crush on Lu Shuang, the eldest granddaughter of the Lu family, and he had been alone with Lu Shuang before leaving.
s contact."
"Now everyone in the yamen is waiting to see Zhang Qianhu's joke. Although no one has said it, everyone knows that this rule is not bad. Now the file is being shelved alone in the Huangce Library and has not been put into storage."
Baihu, who spoke, had a very serious tone.
The hereditary Jin Yiwei actually has very serious sectarian differences. Only a few people know the true situation of Zhang San, and most of them don't understand.
As for Zhang San and others, most of the Jinyiwei didn't say anything, but who could feel comfortable if they just took their positions away from them like this?
Not just one or two people, but nearly twenty.
With my salary, I don't even do errands on weekdays, and I feel a little bit jealous.
"You should go out first, I have my own arrangements for this matter." Song Zhong said in a deep voice.
Hundreds of households did not dare to say any more, clasped their fists and bowed before leaving.
"Zhang San, Zhang San, you really gave me a difficult problem."
One person was silent in the room for a long time. Song Zhong rubbed his temples and said speechlessly.
In fact, he also understood that Zhang San probably didn't think much about it when he did this job. After all, not everyone can do Jin Yiwei's job.
The Jinyiwei may seem simple, but even those at the lowest level have to go through strict selection in the military before they can enter this yamen.
Once you join the Jin Yiwei, it is hereditary. This is an iron rice bowl for future generations.
The salary is several times higher than that of the same position, the power is also great, and there is always abundant salary, and many people are eager to see it.
What Song Zhong is hesitating about now is whether he should suppress this matter himself or say hello to His Highness Taisun.
Daming Palace, Qianqing Main Hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, and after a moment he asked: "Are you sure of what Da Sun said?"
"The stakes in this matter are too important. It not only involves the future of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years, but also involves the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. If there are any mistakes or omissions, heaven and earth will be turned upside down."
Not long ago, Zhu Ying came to Qianqing Palace and told the old man about the black soil matter.
The relationship is too great and the influence is too great.
After thinking about this kind of thing, Zhu Yingsi felt that it was the old man who made the most reliable decision.
Hearing the old man's words, Zhu Ying nodded with certainty and said: "I only discovered these black soil by accident. At first, people from the caravan went there and transported some to the Western Regions as a souvenir."
"By chance, the black soil was used to plant flowers and plants, which grew luxuriantly. My grandson had a school dedicated to studying agricultural production, so he discovered this."
"Then after several months, a sufficient amount of black soil was transported from Liaodong for experiments. After this experiment, it was finally discovered that these black soils are extremely fertile, and the yield of any crop is several times higher."
"Of course, the transportation back like this may be a little inaccurate. During this period, Sun'er once sent people to secretly plant a small part of the barren land. The yield was even more shocking. Then he destroyed the grain and sealed the matter."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately said: "Those who knew how to deal with it and where they are now, Da Sun took care of it with his own hands."
In front of this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not hesitate at all. His first thought was to kill and silence him.
When it comes to important matters related to the survival of the country, including the extermination of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people, Zhu Yuanzhang would not even blink an eye.
Zhu Ying smiled bitterly and said: "Don't worry, old man, the people sent there are all my grandson's cronies, such as Uncle Zhang of the teahouse and Zhang San of the bodyguard, but they have always been with my grandson."
Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved when he heard this.
It's really too involved.
Then he sighed: "The Mongols and Jurchens really have treasure mountains without knowing it. They don't know how to use such fertile land. The tribe is starving and dying everywhere. Every autumn and winter, they still come to our Ming Dynasty to fight the autumn wind. It's ridiculous."
Zhu Ying said nothing after hearing this.
In fact, at the beginning, he was also very curious about whether planting anything in such a large area of black soil could solve his food problem.
After careful study, I discovered that the splendid farming civilization was not based on fertile land, but on the establishment of a stable political power and the development of agricultural technology.
The Northeast is cold and there is a lot of frozen soil. Just cultivating it is a big problem, and it is much more difficult than ordinary land.
Such things as plows did not come into use until the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
During this time period, areas such as Liaodong had already formed a very complete fishing and hunting civilization, with only a few farmers coexisting.
Coupled with the complicated relations between political power, the situation of struggle was so common that no one naturally studied it.
Even if there are a few geniuses who discover this thing, they will soon be destroyed in the war.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't sit still, so he got up and walked back and forth in the hall.
"Dasun, how many troops do you think we need to send to hold Liaodong? Nuergan, we estimate that we need at least 500,000 troops to be able to control such a vast area."
"Just having a large army is not enough. There are many Mongols over there and few Han people. We have to move some of our Ming people there as well."
As he talked, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little worried.
Nowadays, the actual ruling power of Nurgan in Liaodong is in the hands of foreigners. If a large number of troops go over, it is easy to cause conflicts, and there must be enough people to suppress it.
Calculating this way, it is estimated that there are upwards of one million people.
But thinking about the fertile land, Zhu Yuanzhang felt it was worth it.
"Dasun, we feel that this land is fertile and cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide it. Only our Ming Dynasty has the strength to cultivate such a large area."
"Instead of hiding it, it's better to say it openly. This can also attract many people to come."
"This Liaodong slave job originally belongs to our Ming Dynasty. Who else dares to get involved except our Ming Dynasty? If anyone dares to get involved, he should know that the army under our command is not a vegetarian."
"If you dare to oppose us on the grassland, we will dispatch a million troops to sweep across the grassland and wipe out the entire family!!!"
After thinking for a long time, an idea flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind and he said in a stern tone.
Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
The way he looked at the old man changed.
One word wakes up the dreamer, why do you want to hide it? Can you hide it?
Even if he has the vision of future generations, in many aspects, the old man who can conquer the world has a cunning vision that Zhu Ying cannot compare with.
When confirming the black land, Zhu Ying's first thought was to keep the news safe.
This is also human nature. Even the old man just wanted to kill someone and silence him.
But when it comes to reclaiming an area the size of two million people, the actions of dozens or even millions of people can be concealed no matter how hard it is done.
If you think in the direction of not hiding anything, it will be easy to think clearly about this matter.
"Tomorrow morning, we will make this news public and tell the world. At the same time, we will summon the commander of Liaodong and the Marquis of Shenyang to let them know the good news."
Zhu Yuanzhang made the final decision.
At this time, Zhu Ying saw the side of the old man that truly belonged to the emperor.
Previously, what Zhu Ying felt most from the old man's side was warmth and doting.
No matter what he does or wants to do, the old man strongly supports him. Even if he is wrong, he will not reprimand but encourage him.
The old man had almost no doubts about some of the news that was quite outrageous at the moment.
Even Zhu Ying himself knew that although the stories he compiled were all true, the stories themselves could not stand the test of scrutiny.
But the old man never doubted it.
Like now, the black soil in the Northeast is so exaggerated and bizarre to people from the Central Plains. How can there be such fertile land in that barren area?
Dream on.
But the old man just believed it.
If it had been someone else who had said this, I guess it would have been one less crime of deceiving the emperor.
"Grandpa is wise. Even if the grassland invades us, we will not hesitate to do such an important thing. In the eyes of my grandson, this is also a good opportunity to truly integrate Liaodong and Nuergan areas into the Ming Dynasty."
"Over in Datong, a large number of coal mines have been discovered by survey. With enough charcoal fires, they can also withstand the cold of Liaodong."
