After all, Yunxi had been trained as a prince for six years. After finally deciding the outcome of Wang Bu and the other three, he recovered some of his energy and went to the palace where political affairs were handled to continue handling political affairs. Although on that day and the next two days,
His speed is not very fast, and his energy is a little lower than usual, but he can complete the approval of memorials and discuss state affairs every day without any problems.? ?
But for Yunxi, things will not be easy to get over this time. Even the three eunuchs who did not need and should not be corrupt were corrupt, so what else would happen?
For Yunxi, this incident was similar to Zhu Wenzheng's attempted rebellion against Zhu Yuanzhang, which was a huge blow. If Wang Xi had not found out that there was no problem, Yunxi would have lost his trust in people even more.
But this caused Yunxi to be suspicious of his trusted ministers: they may not betray me, but it is very possible that they handle things against my will or commit corruption.
Yunxi originally wanted to use Jinyiwei to check these people, but he thought about it again and thought that Jinyiwei must be reliable? Even if Qin Song is reliable, are the people below him reliable? Qin Song is not going there in person now.
Investigative.
However, Yunxi still told Qin Song to come to Qianqing Palace and ask him to investigate whether there was any corruption in the six departments, but he did not name any of his cronies.
But Yunxi immediately thought of another thing: Even if they are found to have problems and are replaced, will the people they replace must be reliable? I can tolerate a little embezzlement of money, but what if they do things against my will?
Now Lian Zining and others, no matter how unreliable they are, have been following Yunxi since the vassal period. They always know more about Yunxi's thoughts and are more loyal to Yunxi; don't you see this time in the inner palace?
In the corruption case, all the eunuchs with power involved in procurement who were not familiar with Yunxi were dragged into the trap. However, Wang Xi and Wang Xi, who had been with Yunxi, were found to be fine.
In this way, Yunxi's thinking has fallen into a dead end: although these current cronies may not be reliable, there are almost no people more reliable than them.
After Yunxi considered it, on March 15th, he restarted the system of checks and balances that had been invented during the Zhu Yuanzhang period: the six subjects system.
After Zhu Yuanzhang understood the six subjects, the chiefs of the six subjects (all given to Shizhong) could refute the orders given by the minister. Their real power could be said to be second only to the minister, and more powerful than the ministers and doctors.
big.
However, in order to improve administrative efficiency and out of trust in his cronies, Yunxi made the heads of the six departments temporarily vacant, so that naturally no one would refute the minister's order.
Now Yunxi has reinstated the six section chiefs in order to check and balance the six ministers.
Then Yunxi carefully thought about the people around him, discovered a big problem, and began to think about the exchange again.
A few days after the corruption case in the inner palace occurred, and after several major figures had made their verdicts, the ministers finally knew what had happened in the palace, and then naturally also knew the final outcome of the case.
Although most ministers didn't understand why Yunxi punished these eunuchs so severely, they all agreed with Yunxi's large-scale treatment of eunuchs. Officials have always looked down on eunuchs, including the fourth auxiliary officials and the palace.
The sacrificers.
But they immediately felt that Yunxi was different from before. First, besides the four auxiliary officers, Yunxi had no one to appoint, and he handed over part of the memorial to Shiren from time to time, and not all of it was handled by the auxiliary officers.
Afterwards, the chiefs of the six departments took office. Although Yunxi did not tell the newly arrived chiefs what to do, the chief of the engineering department immediately attacked the minister of the department and dismissed the minister one after another on the grounds that the accounts were unclear.
Several orders. In fact, the section chief didn't think much about it. He just felt that as an official, he had to play a role. It happened that the accounts of the projects involved in these orders did have errors, so he rejected them.
Although Yan Zhenzhi was an official from the Hongwu period, he was used to the good times during this period and was quite uncomfortable with the current situation. He even told the emperor about the matter. But how could Yunxi support them at this time? No.
any expression.
At this moment, the chiefs of the other five departments immediately knew what Yun Xi meant and began to cause trouble for the minister of the department.
Although Lian Zining was very loyal to Yunxi, he had a tough character and had a high self-esteem. In history, he once urged Li Jinglong to kill Li Jinglong, and Yunwen had to quit the court. Now that he has become the official minister, he naturally cannot tolerate anyone.
Make trouble with him.
But now Yunxi did not support him in dismissing the section chief, so the department was quarreling every day and never had a free day. Other departments also expressed a certain degree of discomfort.
However, as a result, the external struggle for power has been reduced a lot, because everyone has to focus mainly on the quarrel between the department and the section chief. Therefore, Qin Song's investigation results did not show the signs of the struggle for power a while ago. In fact, there were still
Allayed Yunxi's suspicion about them.
Most of the ministers didn't know why Yunxi suddenly started using Liuke. Although the corruption case in the inner palace was clearly placed in front of them, they just couldn't get in touch with it.
However, there are also people who can understand, people who were born in noble families and had many servants in their families, and they can guess it.
In Taiyuan, because Zhu Jixi's wife was Fu Youde's youngest daughter, he had been secretly helping Fu Youde's family when they were in exile. Later, Yunxi pardoned the Fu family's exile, and Jixi accepted Fu Youde openly.
Changsun Yanwen.
At this time, in a very secret room of his own, Fu Yanwen knelt down and said to the memorial tablet of his grandfather Fu Youde: "Although they are just a few small eunuchs, they probably have a huge impact on Yunxi's heart.
Damn it, haha! Just like when Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Zhu Wenzheng wanted to rebel."
"But even so, the pain in your heart is not as bad as mine. Back then, I admired Zhu Yuanzhang so much and was willing to devote my life to the Ming Dynasty. However, Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and killed my father. I was the only one who survived.
I hope you, Zhu Yunxi, can experience that feeling of despair one day."
Yunxi didn't know that someone was cursing him, but he was still thinking about his official position. Some people would not move for the time being, and some people still had to move.
On March 17, Yunxi appointed Yang Feng, the personal guard commander, as the deputy general of Yansui Town to guard the Hetao area.
After Yunxi carefully sorted out the people around him, he found that the commander of his bodyguards was Yang Feng, the cousin of Queen Xue Xiyao, and the head of his intelligence agency, Qin Song, was also the cousin of Queen Xue Xiyao on the next floor. In addition, Xiyao controlled
Concerning the affairs of the harem, Yunxi was surrounded by people related to the queen's family.
Normally, because Yunxi knew Qin Song and Yang Feng earlier than when he married Xiyao, and they didn't have the same surname, Yunxi ignored them; even if he didn't ignore them, Yunxi trusted them.
Nor will Yang Feng and Qin Song be appointed separately in order to break up this 'siege'.
But even Wang Xi and others can be corrupt, so although Xiyao seems to be smart, what if? So Yunxi beat Yang Feng, who is closer to Xiyao, far away. The relatives can use it, but absolutely
Can't be around.
But because Jinyiwei is a professional job, Yunxi could not find anyone more suitable except Qin Song for a while; and Qin Song was distantly related after all - Yang Feng and Xiyao were relatives within the fifth server, and Qin Song
As my cousin who is one level away, I have already played five servers, so I won’t be looking for someone to replace him for a while.
At the same time, as one of the follow-up effects of the corruption case in the inner palace, after Yunxi recovered his nerves, although almost all the eunuchs he knew were wiped out, he still personally appointed all eunuchs and young eunuchs.
Yunxi deliberately took a lot of time to personally interview a large number of eunuchs with himself as the interviewer and Wang Xi as an advisor to determine the chief officers and lieutenants of each yamen. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, all Xiyao this time
Although some of the temporarily appointed eunuchs and young eunuchs can stay in their positions, the yamen where they work have all been changed.
Moreover, Yunxi strengthened the checks and balances on the various yamen in the inner palace and increased the power of the young eunuchs of each yamen. At the same time, he did not allow any eunuch to have the power of Wang Bu's original eunuch chief. In the end, all were managed by Xiyao.
In addition, Yunxi also partially released the power of the masters of each palace, and established a check and balance with the power of the eunuchs and maids in charge of the six east and west palaces.
Yunxi didn't think this was against Xiyao. 'I'm just taking precautions against possible odds.' Yunxi thought this way.
In addition, Yunxi also officially decided to launch the 'New Home' project. If the purpose of launching the 'New Home' project before was to make this world, or just the Ming Dynasty, more consistent with the various situations in his previous life, so that he could live a more peaceful life.
In addition to being comfortable, the current purpose is to change the current political system to a certain extent, make responsibilities and rights clearer, and make it less likely for officials to violate their orders.
Although Yunxi was not sure that this plan would be successful and would try his best to implement it carefully, he was determined to implement it.
But Yunxi has no time to implement this now, because he also remembered another plan that he had recorded in his notebook, and he was about to start planning for this plan.
Today is March 19th. Xie Cheng is officially going to Shandong to take up his post as the commander of the capital. He has no son, so there are many relatives who came to see him off today. Everyone wants to adopt their sons to him so that he can inherit the throne.
The title of Marquis.
The more Xie Cheng saw these relatives, the more he thought about what happened three years ago, his illegitimate son! Suddenly his heart felt like a knife being twisted.
Xie Cheng no longer cared about the relationship between relatives, and drove away all the relatives with a fierce look, completely ignoring the fact that he might choose Sizi from among them in the future and the relationship between Sizi and Sizi would not be good.
