But appreciation is appreciation, Lin Nuo will not change his position just because of Li Dongyang's arrival.
At the very least, he will not step down from the position of commander of the Imperial Guard until he has earned enough fortune.
Commander of the Jinyiwei, this position is really suitable for him. It has great power and high degree of freedom. As long as there is a suitable reason, he can go to all parts of the Ming Dynasty. It is much more comfortable than a capital official who has stayed in the capital all his life.
He has not yet integrated the various sects in the world, he has not yet destroyed the old guy King Ning, he has not yet found a new dragon vein, and there are still too many things to be done. Before that, it is impossible for him to hold the position of commander of the Jin Yiwei.
given up.
Not to mention Li Dongyang came to persuade him, even if the new emperor Zhengde came to persuade him, he would not change his mind.
"Master Chief Assistant, don't worry about my affairs anymore. No matter what the reason is, since I have promised the late emperor, I will definitely continue to serve as the commander of the Jinyi Guards!"
"My name is Lin Nuo. I make a promise worth a thousand pieces of gold. I must complete what I promise. Otherwise, wouldn't I become a villain who breaks promises at will?"
"You kid, why are you so resigned to your death? This is not just a matter for you alone, it has a bearing on the honor of the entire civil service. Even if I stop intervening in this matter, other civil servants will not let it go!" Li Dongyang
He puffed his beard and stared in anger, looking like he hated the iron.
Lin Nuo shook his head and looked at the other party very seriously, "Master Chief Assistant, you go back and tell everyone that I, Lin Nuo, am a scholar after all, and I have the Imperial Guard in my hands. At least I won't lose control, and I won't launch a large-scale prison edict.
I won’t do anything to give in!”
"But if this position falls into the hands of an eunuch like Liu Jin, can you imagine what will happen in the future?"
"Liu Jin is the Chief Supervisor of Ceremonies, and even more so the Factory Supervisor of the East Factory. If Lian Jinyiwei falls into his hands again, his power is so great that who in the court can stand up to him?"
Li Dongyang was silent. What Lin Nuo said was very realistic, and it was also a problem they urgently needed to solve now.
"Liu Jin is too young. He is not as calm and loyal as Wang Yue. The new emperor has only been on the throne for more than a month, and Liu Jin's desire for power and wealth has already been revealed. I must have noticed this, right?"
Li Dongyang nodded. During these days, he also noticed some clues. Some officials who were frustrated in the officialdom had begun to come into contact with Liu Jin and others. This was a very bad phenomenon.
"Master Chief Assistant, go back and tell the other adults not to worry about my affairs anymore. It's not worth confronting His Majesty because of this kind of thing!"
Lin Nuo still has a good impression of Li Dongyang.
After taking charge of Jinyiwei for more than a month, Lin Nuo investigated all the officials in the court. Most of them had some problems. As long as he was willing, with a single order, many officials could be dismissed from their posts and thrown into prison.
But Li Dongyang, Fang Yun and others have secretly investigated many times, but they have not found any clues about this person. This person does not form a party, is not selfish, is not greedy for money, and does not bend the law. Perhaps he is not a capable minister in history.
But he is definitely a good official.
Lin Nuo also had a very good attitude towards such a good official who dedicated himself to serving the country, and patiently explained a lot to him. Otherwise, if someone else had tried to persuade him, he would have kicked him out of the government office long ago!
"Well, let me go back and persuade them. Although I am the chief assistant, I am not sure how many people are willing to listen to my advice!" Li Dongyang sighed and patted Lin Nuo on the shoulder, "Lin Nuo,
I understand all your policy measures in Shanyin County. If you join the cabinet, you will definitely be a capable minister with a reputation that will be passed down through the ages. It’s just a pity...sigh..."
Sighing, Li Dongyang left the Jinyiwei Yamen. Next, he needed to do the ideological work of other civil servants. Like Emperor Hongzhi, he was a pragmatic person. In his opinion, the face of civil servants was far worse than letting Lin Nuo continue to stay.
It is important that the forces in Jinyiwei suppress the eunuchs!
Watching Li Dongyang leave, Lin Nuo knew that his appointment as the commander of the Jinyi Guards would no longer be used by civil servants to confront Zhengde.
After all, Li Dongyang is the chief minister. Although he is not a party member, his attitude will affect the decisions of many officials. Without the support of the chief minister, no matter how fierce the officials are, the matter will be settled.
After Li Dongyang left, Xu Wei, an old friend, also came to Jinyiwei Yamen.
The two of them stayed in a side hall, and they didn't know what they discussed. It wasn't until the sky turned completely dark that Xu Wei walked out of the Jinyiwei headquarters with a calm expression, looking much more relaxed.
The next morning, during the court meeting, there was much less opposition from the officials to Lin Nuo's appointment as the commander of the Imperial Guard. Although some officials still expressed strong opposition, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and other cabinet elders remained silent on the matter.
Without the leader, the arrogance of the civil servants gradually extinguished. Finally, with the acquiescence of several cabinet elders, several decrees of Emperor Zhengde after he ascended the throne were completely implemented.
Zhu Houzhao was very happy. He felt that he had won the battle against all the officials. This feeling was more satisfying than winning a battle. After returning to the palace, he couldn't help but eat two more bowls of rice. He also felt like he had won the battle.
I practiced shooting for more than an hour under the guidance of my master.
Whether it was a long spear or a short spear, he practiced it all.
Satisfied both physically and mentally, he was quite pleased when he looked at the eunuchs beside him. He even waved to Liu Jin and said, "Liu Daban, go to the Jinyiwei Yamen and call Master Lin here. It's been a while."
When I see him, I want to talk to him!"
Liu Jin accepted the order and left the Forbidden City excitedly. With a group of Dongchang fans, they happily rushed towards the Jinyiwei Yamen where Lin Nuo was.
He was still thinking about how to find an opportunity to deal with Lin Nuo before. Now the opportunity has come. Taking advantage of the opportunity of announcing the decree, Liu Jin is ready to suppress Lin Nuo. It would be best if he could be accepted as his younger brother.
Got it!
"Tap tap tap!"
This time, in order to build up the momentum, Liu Jin brought hundreds of elite Dongchang fans to build up the momentum. Along the way, both officials and common people were so frightened that they kept hiding on both sides of the street for fear of being attacked by these fans.
Keep an eye on it.
"Oh, I don't know which family's adults have been targeted by these tricks!"
"This is already the third one, right? The new emperor has only been on the throne for more than a month, and Dongchang has been making moves one after another. Isn't this Liu Jin a little too arrogant?"
After watching Liu Jin and others leave, many people gathered together and talked in low voices. In their words, they were already quite dissatisfied with Liu Jin's actions over the past few days.
Liu Jin, an eunuch, did not understand the principle of keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile.
However, Zhengde turned a blind eye to some of Liu Jin's extraordinary actions. Now Zhu Houzhao has firmly remembered his father's teachings.
Eunuchs are there to attract hatred. If you don't bring hatred to them, those civil servants who are full of energy and have nowhere to use it will have to use their energy on the emperor!
