"Your Majesty, what is this?" Wang Bu suddenly raised his head.
"What do you think should be the reward for rescuing the driver?" Yun He asked with a smile.
"Your Majesty, you should be heavily rewarded for your rescue, but..."
"Nothing, but Wang Gong blocked me. If he hadn't stopped me, I would have been seriously injured even if I didn't die. I have decided to make him a commander. I will also send people to his hometown to find his family. If there is no family left,
Let him adopt a child and pass on the family business." Yunxi said.
"Your Majesty!" Even though they were prepared, Wang Xi and the others still shouted in surprise.
This is really surprising. The last time a eunuch was granted the title of eunuch was in the Song Dynasty, when Tong Guan was granted the title of county prince. Before that, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, many eunuch titles were granted. Although Wang Gong was not granted the title of World Noble, he was a commander.
They were envoys and were personally allowed by the emperor to pass on the family business, which was a great blessing to them.
"Slave, thank you for your grace." Wang Xi suddenly knelt down and said very moved. The same was true for Wang Bu and Wang Jin.
Bao Zhao and others raised their heads in surprise and looked at this scene. Yun He didn't speak loudly, and they couldn't hear clearly what Yun He said, but it shouldn't be a small matter to make these eunuchs so excited.
'Could it be that the emperor has some kind of kindness to the eunuchs?' Baozhao thought: 'This is not possible. Although your majesty has not re-employed eunuchs to participate in politics, your majesty is very generous to them. Such a thing may not happen in the future, but it is still right.
Your Majesty, please give me some advice.'
Bao Zhao thought about it for a while and wrote down his thoughts on the paper, planning to discuss it in two days. Now that the emperor had just said something to the three eunuchs, if he immediately advised him, he would definitely make the emperor unhappy, and the effect of the advice would be limited.
It will be greatly reduced; and you will also be suspected of bribed people around you to spy on the information, which is a suspicion that you must avoid as an official, so the time for admonishment must be postponed.
When Bao Zhao was thinking about it, Yun Xi had already finished instructing them on the matter, leaving Wang Xi by his side. The other two retreated to deal with major and minor matters in the imperial city. In addition, before they left, Yun Xi gave instructions
: "Send someone to call Qin Song, the commander of the Jinyi Guards."
At this time, Yunxi looked through the memorials on the table. During this period, Xiyao presided over the court discussions and decided on all the memorials. He found no problems and ordered Wang Xi to take them for archiving. He also criticized a few letters and so on.
Just as people were drafting the memorial, they heard a voice from outside: "Qin Song, commander of the Jinyi Guards, is asking to see you."
"Come so fast?" Yunxi muttered, and Qin Song came in. Not long after, he walked in, saluted Yunxi and said, "Your Majesty, Qin Song, has met."
"Qin Qing, you are so familiar with me, get up quickly. Come and give me a seat." Yunhe said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, the etiquette must not be discarded." Qin Song said respectfully. Then a stool was brought in, and he only sat down on a small part of his buttocks.
"Qin Song, have you read the secret decree I gave you before?"
"I read the secret order carefully several times on the day I received it, and sent people to Shandong and Henan to keep an eye on it the next day. Someone would secretly follow Tang Jingyu and others all the way back to Binzhou from Kaifeng."
"I am also sending permanent personnel to Binzhou to investigate the local White Lotus Sect. However, in order to prevent being discovered, I only plan to send two people in the first half of next year, one of whom will pretend to be a businessman, and the person who was placed in Binzhou many years ago will be responsible for the response
, can exist in the local area; the other person pretends to be a doctor and opens a medical clinic without any problem."
"It's just that it's very difficult to send people to the countryside without alerting the snake. I plan to send another person to pretend to be a businessman in the second half of next year. He made a lot of money in Binzhou and then suddenly went bankrupt and became a small trader in the countryside for investigation.
The local situation. These ministers plan to use Shandong people because..."
Yunxi waved his hand to interrupt Qin Song's long speech: "There is no need to report these things to me. I have never been a spy, so you can just go ahead and do the specific things."
"I just want to tell you one more thing. Pay attention to the fact that these may be the family members of Tang Jingyu, the leader of the White Lotus Cult. He has a daughter named Tang Sai'er, so you must pay close attention to it."
Qin Song was stunned. Why did a daughter need to pay so much attention? But what the emperor said was an imperial edict, and he didn't dare not listen, so he could only bow and agree.
Yunxi was a little excited in his heart. He had met many celebrities when he came to Ming Dynasty, and there were many more famous people than Tang Sai'er. But if he saw Tang Sai'er, this would be the first one he saw who was still famous.
Celebrities in their infancy will naturally be a little excited.
Yunxi gave a few more instructions on this matter. Remembering what happened at the beginning, he asked with a smile: "I sent someone to ask you to come, but I only sent someone to inform you half a quarter of an hour ago. Why did Aiqing come to you at this time?"
Can you come?"
"I also have something to tell your Majesty, so I got up early and rushed to the palace. On the way, I met someone who was sent by your Majesty to deliver the order, so I came earlier."
"What's the matter with you?"
"Your Majesty, it's about a few things about generals." Qin Song then talked about the things that Xiyao and Yunxi told last night about what the Jin Yiwei had discovered.
"I already know about this." Yunxi had said this, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said to Qin Song: "I have two questions to ask you. One, when civil officials discuss the matter of supervising the army, they should put aside their selfish motives.
Don’t talk about it, do you think it’s reasonable?”
"Your Majesty," Qin Song thought about it for a while and said, "I think there is some truth in what they said."
"When a large army goes out for war, if the military power is no longer in the hands of one person and he orders many gates, chaos will inevitably occur and the war will fail. But if all the troops are given to one person, that person may rebel. Therefore, since ancient times, all dynasties have sent out supervisory troops.
, just in case the general has disloyal intentions. Your Majesty is concerned about military and state affairs, and it is naturally unnecessary to patrol the places where the army sets out. It can be said that your Majesty may not be able to do this in every war in the Ming Dynasty, so you should send out supervisory troops."
"Your Majesty, I know that your Majesty sent military doctors not only to treat the wounded soldiers, but also to supervise them. However, because the powers and responsibilities of military doctors are unclear, at least for now, it is difficult for me to meet your Majesty's expectations."
"What you said makes sense. But if the power of supervising the army is too strong, it will affect the commander's command of the war; if the power of supervising the army is light, it may not be able to prevent the general from disloyalty." Yun He said again.
Qin Song did not answer. As the head of an intelligence agency, he did not dare to say random things.
Yunxi didn't expect him to answer. He just lowered his head and thought about it, probably considering how to deal with it. After a while, he raised his head.
"I have another question for you. Among those generals who are discussed with others, is there Xue Ning?"
"No, Your Majesty, no."
"Are you sure?" Yunxi stared at Qin Song and said.
Qin Song didn't dare to look up, sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still said: "No."
"That's good." Yunxi sighed. He believed that Qin Song didn't dare to deceive him.
After asking this question, Yunxi felt relaxed and said a few more words to him before he retreated.
After Qin Song retreated, Yunxi took out a pen and paper and wrote a few lines on it. At the same time, he said to himself: "It seems like it's time to start reforming the military system."
