"To report back to Your Majesty, it is not that someone committed an offense, but that there is a problem with the Jinyi Guard itself."
"After the Crown Prince left the capital, I sent people to spread the news and keep an eye on His Highness the Crown Prince's movements. However, the news sent back by the Jin Yiwei Anzi often had deviations!"
"I originally thought this was caused by the slackness of the Jinyiwei Anzi, but all the Jinyiwei Anzi in Shunqing Fucheng were killed by His Royal Highness. Only then did I realize that there might be something wrong with these anzi!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have deep intentions for doing this. However, the officials in the DPRK are not so easy to deal with."
Wang Chengen said in a deep voice.
The Jinyiwei Qinglong Division he was in charge of were all elites specially selected by Lin Fan for Emperor Chongzhen, and their loyalty was extremely high. However, they often encountered obstacles in their operation.
This all shows how serious the internal problems of Jinyiwei are. His Royal Highness may have discovered something and acted cruelly. Wang Chengen also admired Lin Fan more and more.
"You mean, those who assassinated Fan'er bribed all the Jin Yiwei?"
Emperor Chongzhen asked.
"If nothing else happens, it is exactly like this. If this reasoning continues, then the officials and defenders of Shunqing Fucheng will also reap the benefits..."
Wang Chengen said in a deep voice.
hiss!
Emperor Chongzhen took a breath of air when he heard this. With more than 3,000 defenders, even if only the generals took advantage of others, it would be very terrifying!
If the critical moment comes, will these people still be soldiers of the Ming Dynasty?
"Haha! Well done! These people have done a great job! All our soldiers of the Ming Dynasty will become theirs!"
Emperor Chongzhen said with a sneer.
"Your Majesty, this matter must be resolved. I have asked the Independent Commission Against Corruption to secretly investigate the Jin Yiwei of Qinglong Division. Once the spies are found, they will be eliminated directly."
"The Qinglong Division was specially selected by His Highness the Crown Prince, so there are not many spies. However, our officers and soldiers all over the Ming Dynasty don't know that."
Wang Chengen said in a deep voice.
"I know about this. When Fan'er comes back, I will discuss it with him in detail. If these people want to make trouble, then I will accompany them to make trouble!"
Emperor Chongzhen said coldly.
Heshuote Capital City!
"Father, do you really want to surrender to the Ming Dynasty?
This canonization is clearly intended to bring us Heshuote into the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Once you agree, doesn’t it mean that you are a minister of the Ming Dynasty?”
Narantuji said in a deep voice.
Emperor Chongzhen's decree to confer Nalan Eagle as the Eagle Marquis has been sent to Heshuote for several days. Due to the strength of the Ming Dynasty, Nalan Eagle decided to accept the decree.
Besides, his daughter Nalan Yanran is still the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. In the future, she will become the queen of the Ming Dynasty, so it will not be a disadvantage for her to submit.
However, in Narantuji's view, this matter was a very shameful thing. They and Shuote had strong soldiers and horses, and they would not necessarily lose even if they started a war. Why should they surrender?
"Jill, have you thought about the consequences of this?
Once I reject the Ming Emperor's will, I will give the Ming Dynasty a reason to go to war!"
Nalan Eagle said in a deep voice.
"Father! Let's fight if there is a war! My sister is already married to that Lin Fan. I still don't believe that he will kill us!"
"We Heshuote have strong soldiers and horses. Even if we fight, we may not lose. At worst, we will be defeated to death, and we can't surrender so easily!"
Narantuji said angrily.
He was impatient. Seeing his father becoming more and more hesitant, he felt angry and determined to teach the Ming Dynasty a painful lesson.
"Jier, it is because of your sister that my father decided to accept the canonization of Yinghou. You also know that she will become the queen of the Ming Dynasty in the future."
"In the final analysis, the Ming Dynasty will be handed over to my grandson in the future. Besides, accepting the canonization of Yinghou now does not mean that Heshuote will submit to the Ming Dynasty."
Nalan Eagle said in a deep voice.
When Nalan Tuji heard what Nalan Xiongying said, the anger in his heart also disappeared a lot. He said solemnly: "Father, you can accept the canonization, but we cannot accept it so easily."
"Jill, what are you going to do?"
Nalan Eagle asked.
"Of course we are going to send troops. I want Lin Fan to come to me in person and give me a guarantee before I agree to the canonization this time. Otherwise, we will definitely not be able to accept this eagle order!"
Narantuji said coldly.
At this time, Lin Fan had returned to the capital. He did not go to see Emperor Chongzhen immediately, but summoned the Xuanjia Army and the Jinyi Guards at the same time.
In the past, there were only 20,000 Jinyiwei. Even if some of them were bribed by the heaven and earth, they would not be able to cause too much trouble. However, now there are 150,000 people!
The people of Qinglong Division should not have any big problems. However, the 100,000 people he is now in charge of are getting three times the salary. If he doesn't find out the spies, how can he sleep peacefully.
"Well! Why are we gathering outside the city today?"
"When will our Jinyiwei gather together with the Xuanjia Army?
Haha! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sees himself becoming the crown prince, so does he want to use us to show off his power?"
"Shh! You must not talk nonsense. His Highness the Crown Prince asked us to gather here. There must be a reason!"
"Haha! What's the reason?
All our brothers in Shunqing Fucheng were killed, and they were so cruel to their own people, so what qualifications does he have to be our commander?"
"Alas! There must be a secret behind this matter. Let's wait and see how His Highness the Crown Prince explains it to us!"
"Haha! There must be something hidden?
The cause of this incident is very simple, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was attacked, and those royal guards did not rescue him in time, so he was killed!"
"He didn't even look at it. In that case, there were only seven or eight Jin Yiwei hiding in the city. How could we save him?
Will it work?"
…
Complaints arose among the Jinyi guards, and Lin Fan was now mixed in with the Xuanjia army, listening to the nagging of these Jinyi guards.
hehe!
Sure enough, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. These Jin Yiwei are taking three times the salary that they have given them, but they still have to say that they are wrong and they need to be politicized.
Lin Fan has already thought of a strategy in his mind, which is to streamline the number of Jinyiwei and implement a staffing system similar to the civil service system in later generations.
In other words, Lin Fan has to go through layers of selection to select 20,000 elite guards from the existing Jin Yiwei and give them a formal establishment.
The established Jinyiwei will continue to enjoy three times the salary. However, their responsibilities and the tasks they need to perform will also be more dangerous.
The Jin Yiwei who failed the selection lost three times their salary and were no longer Jin Yiwei but were renamed Eagle Guards. Their duties were to travel between places and collect intelligence.
