Chapter 145: Five Jin officials, as a warning to the dead chicken of the monkey
"Stand up, the dignified commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town, can't he even straighten his legs?" Zhu Qizhen was furious when he saw Jiang Fu's look as if his bones had been taken away.
He couldn't help but scolded him in a cold voice. "Thank you for your kindness. I will hand over all those lands and properties to your Majesty. I will never dare to do it again in the future. Otherwise, I will be willing to lie down and die." Jiang Fu bowed to the ground again.
, after pointing to the sky and swearing with tears of gratitude, he stood up carefully and stood respectfully beside him.
"Those border troops who are slaves in your house should be transferred here first." Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and then ordered: "I will appease them first. Even if they are released into the army at this time,
It is inevitable that there will be resentment in my heart. When the time comes, I don’t know if it will cause any trouble. Sigh..." Zhu Qizhen couldn’t help but glared at Jiang Fu hatefully. Jiang Fu’s eyelids jumped and his head drooped.
It's even lower.
"Yan Shun, the eunuch guarding Xuanfu, was appointed by me personally to guard the land of Xuanfu in the 13th year of Zhengtong. I remember that in the land of Xuanfu, in addition to the eunuchs guarding the Xuanfu, there were four more eunuchs guarding the place." Zhu Qizhen
He stroked his tight brows, with a hint of weirdness and bitterness in his expression." Since these ministers came out of the Xuanfu, they usually enjoy the honor, but they are not willing to accept the border, deduct the military pay, seize the soldiers, and even poison the Xuanfu.
The common people. I never thought that I would actually send such bastards to announce the government."
"Your Majesty, I also have a responsibility." Luo Hengxin couldn't help but prostrate himself to the ground after hearing this, with a look of shame on his face.
"What responsibility do you have? You have fought for the people many times. The common people of Xuanfu. Without you, a people-friendly official who wholeheartedly manages affairs for the people, we would not know what the chaos would be like." Zhu Qizhen raised his hand and said,
Luo Hengxin helped him up. Looking at this old man who was nearly seventy years old and still working hard, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"The guarding eunuchs and the general soldiers of the border towns were intimidated and often feared. Although Yang Qing was a veteran general of the Xuanfu of the Ming Dynasty, he was often under his thumb, but there was nothing he could do. He was even often impeached by him. Alas, he was appointed as an eunuch to supervise the army.
The towns are divided, and the number of eunuchs guarding them from all sides is increasing day by day. They are acting arrogantly, making good use of their authority, and causing troubles. This has become a serious problem for our Ming Dynasty." The more Zhu Qizhen talked, the angrier he became, and the evil fire in his heart became even more intense.
Jumping upwards.
"Today, the reason why the Lianhe did not take them was not because they did not dare to touch them, but because they did not want to touch them. I have not collected enough evidence yet. I really want to take a look. These have only been in the Xuanfu for a few months.
The eunuchs who have been here for several years have embezzled and deducted military pay in Xuanfu, how many border soldiers they have used, and how many people have been displaced in the border towns of Xuanfu..."
"I want to sort out the accounts one by one and calculate them clearly. When the time comes, I can give a good explanation to the soldiers and civilians of Xuanfu." Zhu Qizhen's voice became increasingly cold.
The murderous intent that overflowed made Jiang Fu shiver. It was as if he had seen a row of bright butcher knives waving with cold light, and then slashed them down, causing a blood wave like water...
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will definitely look for evidence no matter what. Please make the decision for our soldiers and people in the border town of Xuanfu and show your power." This fell into Luo Hengxin's eyes, but it made the Xuanfu veteran tremble with excitement.
If he hadn't been a scholar with no power to restrain a chicken, and if he hadn't been looking after the millions of soldiers and civilians in the border town of Xuanfu, this fiery old man would have wished he could lift a three-foot green sword to take the first place among the eunuchs.
class.
Now, the Supreme Emperor has spoken in front of himself and Jiang Fu, the two top officials of the border town of Xuanfu. Luo Hengxin naturally raised his hands in agreement. At least, Luo Hengxin hopes to see the day when the Supreme Emperor was at the gate of Xuanfu City and killed that man with a sword.
The heroic demeanor of an official like Liu Pingzhong.
"I want everyone in the border town of Xuanfu to know who is in charge of Xuanfu's border town now. If I don't kill a group of eunuchs, the hatred in my heart will never go away. If I don't kill a group of people to establish my authority, the civil and military affairs of Xuanfu
"How can you listen to me?" Zhu Qizhen glanced at the two of them and said calmly.
Regarding Zhu Qizhen's extremely arrogant declaration, the two of them did not dare to think anything other than awe. After all, Zhu Qizhen was the Supreme Emperor and had been the Emperor of Heaven for nearly fifteen years.
, and today I also respectfully ask him to supervise the affairs of the border towns of Xuanfu. Who dares to block his power?
What's more, although Zhu Qizhen's words were only aimed at the eunuchs, they did not fail to hit the two highest civil and military officials of the Xuanfu and let them understand that they were the masters of the border towns of the Xuanfu.
"I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do today, so don't leak it." After a pause, Zhu Qizhen's voice softened and he ordered to the two people.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely reveal only a few words." The two men did not dare to neglect and replied in unison.
"Okay, you go back first, Jiang Fu. Your house and property will remain in your hands for the time being. If those guarding eunuchs come to look for you again in these days, they might as well entrust them to the virtual snake. I don't want to be alarmed now.
Don't kill them, you know?" Zhu Qizhen ordered Jiang Fu again.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best and will not disappoint Your Majesty." Jiang Fu said solemnly.
After watching the confused Jiang Fu and the energetic Luo Hengxin leave the pavilion and disappear from his sight, Zhu Qizhen sat back on the stone bench in the pavilion and faced his side.
Nian Ning gave instructions, Nian Ning nodded, turned and left the pavilion.
Yuan Bin, who had been standing beside Zhu Qizhen, cleared his throat and said: "Your Majesty, the guarding eunuchs and guarding eunuchs in the border town of Xuanfu are all internal ministers. If you do this, will it embarrass Long Live today?"
"So what if it's embarrassing? I'm just exposing my own shortcomings. Four of these five eunuchs were accused by me when I was in power. I never thought that these eunuchs would actually cause such resentment among the people." Zhu Qizhen
He smiled and shook his head and said. "If I want to control the Xuanfu, I must use some iron-blooded methods. However, even if the civil and military officials are corrupt, they can still manage military and civilian affairs. And these eunuchs can be said to be
If you don't succeed enough, you will fail more than you should. If I don't get rid of these bastards who suck people's money and support, how can I obey them? This can be regarded as making up for the mistakes I made in the past."
"Your Majesty's ability to do this is not only a blessing to the soldiers and civilians of Xuanfu's border town, but also a blessing to the military and civilians of the world." Yuan Bin also nodded slightly and agreed. Indeed, although Zhu Qizhen is the Supreme Emperor, I respectfully invite Zhu Qizhen today.
In the border towns of the Duxuan Mansion, however, in the Ming Dynasty's officialdom, there were countless cases of subordinates disobeying the emperor's will. Even the emperor's will was often turned a deaf ear by the officials.
Therefore, there is no doubt that Zhu Qizhen must establish his prestige. Using the eunuch who is despised and despised by everyone in the world and the most indignant among the people as a model will not only win the hearts of the soldiers and civilians in the border towns of Xuanfu, but also the Ming Dynasty.
Most of the local officials in the Ming Dynasty had a favorable impression. After all, the evil policy of the Ming Dynasty, in which eunuchs were appointed as guarding eunuchs, was started by Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty.
The so-called garrison and garrison are originally the titles of military generals. The one who controls one side of the town is the garrison, and the one who controls one side alone is the branch garrison. Generally speaking, the general military officer is responsible for the garrison, while the garrison is held by the participating generals.
However, as the power of the eunuchs expanded, the guards and guards in various places were gradually controlled by this generation. Tracing its historical traces, we can already see clues in the Yongle period. Emperor Jianwen inherited Zhu Yuanzhang's legacy and was very strict with the eunuchs. And his uncle, the king,
That is to say, after the founder Zhu Di raised his army, the eunuchs turned against him one after another and went to his camp to report various political and military secrets to the court as a welcome gift to the new master.
After Zhu Di came to the throne, he was constantly invited by these eunuchs, so Zhu Di selected a group of them and went with Gu Cheng, Han Guan, He Fu and others from Guizhou, Guangxi, and Ningxia.
"" is enough to show that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty took an extreme turn and change in dealing with eunuchs.
In the last years of Yongle, there were more and more eunuchs guarding all sides, and they were exerting power and blessings, and they were likely to be replaced by general military officers. Historical records: "Since Emperor Wen appointed eunuchs to supervise the army and divide the towns, they have been adept at using their power and blessings, stimulating the development of military affairs.
When an incident occurs, the commander-in-chief of the border town is threatened by the situation and is often afraid of it."
Later, the title of guarding eunuch finally officially appeared. In February of the first year of Hongxi, Renzong, Zhu Qizhen's grandfather, Zhu Zhugaochi, "ordered the chief military officer of Gansu to supervise Wang An, the guarding eunuch." This was exactly what was given to the eunuch.
The title of guard.
In the first year of Xuande, King Zhu Gaoxu of the Han Dynasty rebelled. Xuanzong sent commander Tan Shun, internal officer Huang Rang, and internal envoy Chen Jin to assist Ping Jiangbo and Chen Sui to guard Huai'an. This showed that eunuchs had begun to guard the interior.
During the more than ten years of Zhu Qizhen's reign, as social conflicts became increasingly acute, the Ye Zongliu and Deng Maoqi uprisings broke out in Fujian. At that time, Zhu Qizhen sent many eunuchs to guard various mansions at once.
After the defeat of Tumubao, Zhu Qiyu, a good brother, continued to carry forward his elder brother's style and set up guard eunuchs in dangerous places in various places. In just over half a year, dozens of eunuchs were sent to guard or guard various places, and
The highest-ranking guard eunuch, together with the chief military officer, the governor and the censor, were known as the three halls.
"..., Your Majesty, if you do this, will others try to attack you and corrupt the ancestral system? After all, eunuchs are divided into various places, originating from the ancestors, and Emperor Renzong even made it clear and uprightly guarded the name of eunuchs.
." Yuan Bin frowned and said with some concern.
"It's okay to promote the ancestral system. When it comes to the ancestral system, the ancestors of Emperor Taizu should be the first." Zhu Qizhen grinned, revealing a mouth of strong white teeth, which were exceptionally bright.
"As the saying goes, time has changed and things have changed. Now, since the system of eunuchs has become a drawback, endangering our people and the people, it is equivalent to endangering the cornerstone of our Ming Dynasty. How can we not eliminate it? Do we have to wait until our Ming Dynasty?
There are so many disadvantages and the crisis is a matter of survival?"
"But Your Majesty, you are the emperor, not the emperor." Yuan Bin gritted his teeth and raised his neck.
