The training that led to today's marching method has certainly established Lin Zhao's prestige among the Jinyi Guards, but today's scene may have been expected by some people. Lin Zhao made sufficient preparations to enter the capital.
He doesn't care about other people's comments, but if it causes a dispute within Jinyiwei, it will be a problem.
After all, Lin Zhao's goal is to take charge of the entire Jinyiwei. If those guys instigate anything, people below will inevitably be dissatisfied.
Some people are like this, they don't do enough success, but they are perfect when it comes to bad things.
Lin Zhao could think with the heel of his heels that Zhao Tongzhi, Fang Tongzhi, the two ministers of Lu and Lu, and the thousands of households below were all working together to harm Lin Zhao.
These people were originally natives of the capital, and Lin Zhao, an outsider, wanted to cause a big scene and seriously affected their interests. They must be very angry. They must be thinking of colluding to make Lin Zhao unable to move and achieve nothing.
But that's all they can do.
Apart from making it impossible for Lin Zhao to do anything, there was nothing else the few Jinyiwei senior officials could do.
Therefore, Lin Zhao had to take precautions and nip these little tricks in the bud.
…
The Jinyiwei is the personal army of the emperor, and is a sword in the hands of the emperor. Since the Ming Dynasty, the position of the commander of the Jinyiwei has been very important. For example, Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, belonged to the Three Solitaries and the Three Gongs.
Location.
But then again, Jinyiwei is an intelligence agency and is the center of attention from both the government and the public. Not every commander has as stable a position as Lu Bing.
If there is no big figure behind the capital commander and the relationship with the big bosses in power is not good, then it will become a dangerous position and it will bring great disaster.
Cui Qiushan is a person who understands deeply. Knowing the current situation of his family, it is a blessing to be able to give up the position of commander of the Imperial Guards peacefully. He dare not think about anything else.
Therefore, he has always been very polite to Lin Zhao, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he will respond to every request.
Many old people secretly said that Cui Qiushan was spineless. The dignified commander of the Imperial Guards was so shameless and skinless.
Regarding these discussions, Cui Qiushan, as the capital, would of course know something about it, but he didn't care at all.
What does it mean to have a little backbone and face?
If he really tried to show off his power in front of Lin Zhao, he would end up in his own prison, and these people who gossiped behind his back would not shed a tear for him, let alone visit him.
As the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Cui Qiushan certainly had some profitable men in his hands, so of course the news that Lin Zhao was leading an attack on the capital reached his ears immediately.
"The Jinyiwei are the emperor's personal soldiers, and they have a very high status in the capital. They can be said to be prestigious. However, in one morning, more than 200 people were taken from their homes, dragged to the street, and beaten severely. It was really embarrassing.
, Cui Dutang, as our royal guard, you can’t ignore it!”
"Brothers are doing something wrong, but after all, we are pro-army people, so we can just punish them behind closed doors. However, Lin Zhao dragged everyone to the street and beat them, which really hurts the pro-army's face.
It’s outrageous, it’s really outrageous, Cui Dutang, you can’t just watch!”
When it was getting dark, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, his colleagues Fang Datong, Zhao Guangliang, and two ministers from Lu and Lu came to visit Cui Qiu Shan and said these words to Cui Qiu Shan.
You must know that Jinyiwei has a large organization and a large number of personnel. The North and South Town Fusi, the Experience Department, and the thousands of households below, plus the provinces and important places, there are thousands, hundreds, and tens of thousands of people. If you count the periphery , one hundred thousand people is not an exaggeration.
Such an organization has been passed down from generation to generation, has great authority externally, and has many factions at the top of the mountain. The few people who came here are not from the same faction as Cui Qiu Shan. Although their levels are not much different, they don't see each other at all on weekdays, and they all go their own way. Well, I have been visiting my house today, and it seems that Cui Qiu Shan is really a dignified person.
But how could Cui Qiushan not see what they wanted to do?
It's just that they want to charge into the battle, while they sit back and enjoy the results.
So no matter how much they talked about it, Cui Qiushan would just hum and haha with them, but would not tell the truth.
It wasn't until dinner time that Cui Qiushan showed no intention of staying to entertain. Only then did they say goodbye and leave.
"I think Cui Qiushan is too timid to face Lin Zhao directly."
"This guy has obviously gone through this term safely, so he doesn't dare to stir up trouble."
"I didn't expect that the dignified Imperial Guard Commander would be so willing to be a puppet."
Several people sneered at each other on the way back.
Cui Qiushan naturally couldn't hear their words, but he could think of them.
"I'm used to being the boss in Jinyiwei. I really don't know how high the sky is. The Yangzhou salt merchant is someone who is easy to mess with, but he has kneaded him like dough. These people are still dreaming about spring and autumn."
Cui Qiushan thought coldly.
At this time, it was getting dark. Shortly after the servants of the Cui family hung up the lanterns at the gate, another guest came to visit.
The servants of the Cui family have also seen the world. Seeing the robes on this man and the entourage following him, he can probably tell who he is.
He hurriedly passed the message in, ran back again, smiled and said:
"Master Lin, my master has invited you!"
After saying that, he turned around and opened the door. Unexpectedly, the door had just been opened halfway, but he saw his master running out.
"I must have too much respect for this Master Lin. When the adults came to visit just now, I just stood at the door of the living room. This Master Lin is really amazing. He is so young, but he made me run out. It's amazing. "
The servants of the Cui family were amazed.
"Cui Dutang came out to greet him in person, which really puts the officials to shame."
"Haha, why are you and I so polite?"
"But I wanted to discuss something with Cui Dutang. I didn't care that it was getting late, so I ran over here and asked Cui Dutang not to see anyone outside..."
"What are you going to do? Come here at this hour. You haven't eaten yet? Brother, I just prepared some wine and food. How about you and I eating and chatting together?"
In Cui Qiu Shan's house, two foxes, one big and one small, were holding hands and chatting happily, as if they had been close friends for many years.
Royal Palace, Qinzheng Hall.
"Hmph! The Jin Yiwei are the emperor's personal soldiers, and even I can't use them smoothly. This shows how lazy they are. Lin Zhao's steel knife is just the right thing to use to deal with them."
Emperor Xiaode looked at the memorial and sneered.
"What do you think of these tasks that Lin Zhao proposed to set up in the Jinyi Army?"
He looked at the man in the shadow and asked.
"The Dragon Guards are His Majesty's eyes and ears and have no power to deal with them. I have never thought of asking for these powers, so I have nothing to say about the Jinyi Guards."
The man replied calmly.
Emperor Xiaode had long understood this person's attitude, and it was just a casual question at this moment.
"You should be cautious."
Emperor Xiaode smiled slightly, but looked to the other side: "Old Qi, what do you think?"
At this time, they were not the only ones in the Qinzheng Palace, Prince Zhongshun was also there.
In addition, Dai Quan was also standing by.
The leader of the Dragon Guard remained silent because he abided by his duty.
Prince Zhongshun must speak.
He stood up, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor has been in power for forty-five years and has all the power. Why did he establish the Dragon Guard? Isn't it because the Imperial Guard is getting weaker and weaker, and one after another the worms of the country have been honored?
Your Majesty, your Majesty, is not very able to do anything when your civil servants intervene. Lin Zhao's trouble this time is to clean up those bastards and make the Jinyiwei become the emperor's personal soldiers again, so I think it is beneficial and harmless."
Emperor Xiaode sighed: "What Lao Qi said is that the Jinyiwei group only fights for power and profit, and the people below are becoming more and more shameless. They bully the common people one by one. They need to be rectified. Dai Quan,
Draft the edict and send it to Jinyiwei Yamen tomorrow."
