Mao's Chinese language trembled like duckweed on the lake in front of the emperor.
The Zhan Xiushan case ended with the outcome of King Huai. Although there is still a clue, now that the matter involves the feudal lord, whether to investigate or not, and whether to handle it or not is no longer something he can decide.
Yan Song had already come to report the whole story, and Zhu Houzhao was also waiting for Mao Yuwen to confess to him.
"Several imperial officials died in Zhao Prison. For this matter, there was a lot of rumors inside and outside the capital, and two ministers from the cabinet came to visit you! A few years ago, I clearly ordered Beizhen Fusi to use severe punishments without explicit decree. . Nowadays, severe punishments are no longer available, but human lives are directly lost!"
Zhu Houzhao smashed several memorials in his hand on his head. Some of the corners were very sharp. When they hit the center, blood flowed from Mao Yuwen's forehead.
He knelt straight and kowtowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, I was confused for a moment and made a big mistake! Now it's too late to repent. I beg your Majesty to punish me severely so that I can give an explanation to the foreign ministers." ! It’s better than letting them go up and down day by day, so that Your Majesty has to bear the name of protecting his shortcomings!”
Today Mao Yuwen's attitude was very good. After explaining the matter, he admitted his mistake and apologized.
Zhu Houzhao became angry, but he had no intention of killing Mao Yuwen. After all, it was obvious that those people were definitely not killed by him. Although he had his own little idea and wanted to defeat Mou Bin, killing someone meant cutting off one's own livelihood, and Mao Yuwen could not do such a mindless thing.
Secondly, many foreign ministers took advantage of this incident to criticize Mao Yuwen, and there was even a tendency to blame Mao Yuwen for many murders over the years.
This actually has other purposes, they want to get rid of him.
But in this way, the emperor lost a good sword in his hand.
"Now the courtiers are angry, and the longer they drag on, the more angry they are. More and more officials are demanding to find out the case and give an explanation to the world. This time, you can't make any mistakes again."
Mao Yuwen was overjoyed. The emperor said this to forgive him, "I thank your majesty for not killing me! Please look after me this time. I will definitely live up to your holy grace."
Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes and said, "Who should be the commander of the Jinyi Guard? This is my business, not yours. I don't want to do it, and you still have to be smart and think you can force me to do something. Who do you think I am? At the meeting Should a minister be a weak king? I am very cautious about using human authority, and you have made this mistake before. So be careful."
Mao Yuwen felt full of regret, "I will definitely reflect on my mistakes in the future and make serious corrections. In addition to being loyal to Your Majesty, I have no other thoughts in my heart!"
"The woman you raise in your house is said to be very smart. She must have given you a lot of advice, right?"
Mao Yuwen panicked, "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with her. All the mistakes are my fault!"
"Hmph! It's not that I despise her as a woman. But don't underestimate me or the minister of the court. This time I made a mistake and got pecked in the eye, didn't I? If you make any plans in the future, remember to follow my words. Let’s start from this perspective. Why did this happen this time? It’s because you have selfish motives. I allow you to be selfish, but you delayed the important affairs of the court because of your selfish motives! This is absolutely intolerable!”
"When you entered the palace this time, you only admitted your mistakes and apologized, and never mentioned Mou Bin. Is that what she taught you? She told you that I would be angry because you framed Mou Bin for no reason, but there might be a glimmer of truth in your confession. vitality."
….
The emperor's words hit his heart like a heavy hammer. Apart from fear, Mao Yuwen could no longer feel any other emotion.
"I will put twenty military sticks in my account for you. After this matter is settled, you can go get it yourself. Also, look up at me."
Zhu Houzhao came closer and squatted in front of him. When he spoke again, his tone was not serious, but his eyes were unforgiving, and he asked with a smile: "Look at me to see if I am Liu Chan, the empress of the Shu Han Dynasty. An incompetent emperor like Huizong and Zhao Ji, do you think I can be easily fooled by my ministers like them?"
Some people want to use nice words to win over those who are dishonest. In fact, they should be given some color, otherwise they will think that they have become the emperor's confidants, and they will be so arrogant and domineering that they seem to be the best in the world.
Mao Yuwen's thoughts were all revealed, and he was already frightened!
When I got home, my whole body was full of soul
Those who don’t keep their homes.
Xu Xueyun was actually a little happy when she saw him. She probably felt that her plan had succeeded and the emperor had not done anything to her master after all. However, Mao Yuwen's dejected look made her particularly worried.
"Sir, what did your Majesty say?"
Mao Yuwen actually wanted to vent his anger on Xu Xueyun in his heart. If it hadn't been for her, this mess would not have happened. But Xu Xueyun's heart was also for him, so she endured it.
He sighed and said, "Your Majesty guessed what you said to me."
"Guess?"
"It's you who asked me to only admit my fault and apologize without even mentioning Mou Bin."
Xu Xueyun opened his mouth in shock, "Your Majesty actually guessed it?"
Why didn't she mention it in the first place? Because she knew that the emperor was smart, and there was no need to explain that these people were definitely not killed by Mao Yuwen, so why bother mentioning it? Wouldn't it be more effective to let the emperor doubt and guess who did it?
"His Majesty also asked me if he was an emperor who could be fooled like Liu Chan and Zhao Ji..."
Xu Xueyun was originally squatting, but now he couldn't help but stand up. In this encounter, she met two people, one was Mou Bin and the other was the emperor. In the past, she felt that she was quite smart, and sometimes she would not take some people seriously.
But when they arrived at the court, they discovered that even the emperor, who was only fifteen years old, had unfathomable plans.
When you meet such a powerful emperor, you will never be careless in the future.
"Master, this time it's all my fault. Fortunately... I can still save my life."
Mao Yuwen was also a little scared, "By asking those questions, does Your Majesty have murderous intentions against me?"
Xu Xueyun had always spoken clearly, but suddenly he didn't know how to answer this question. Did the emperor have murderous intentions? It seems that whether it is there or not, there is some lack of basis for it.
The ultimate meaning of the Holy Spirit is still difficult to fathom.
…
…
Zhu Houzhao actually did not expect that Mao Yuwen would cause this scandal on his own and give others an opportunity to take advantage of it. Although he accidentally caused a murder and caused shock in the court,
But the good results cannot cover up the problem of motivation.
But in hindsight, it’s normal. A person who was born as a prison boss without much cultural background suddenly ascended to a high position without making any mistakes. This is a report card that only Guo Ziyi and Zeng Guofan can deliver.
….
Mao’s Chinese language is far from good.
So Zhu Houzhao didn't worry too much. On the contrary, it was Mu Bin who actually hid this thought.
In addition, he should rectify the Jinyiwei area.
All along, he, the emperor, has done one thing for Jin Yiwei - inserted Mao's Chinese language into it.
Of course, Mao Yuwen himself also brought many people with him. This is normal, let’s not mention it for now.
Apart from that, he actually didn't care about what happened to Jin Yiwei.
Mao's mistake in Chinese language this time also gave him an opportunity and a reason. Whatever he did in the past still showed that he, the emperor, was unkind and unjust.
Now, sparing him alive is already a great favor, so what if he takes another action?
"Xuan Yang Tinghe enters the palace." Zhu Houzhao silently ordered the people around him.
"yes."
Yang Tinghe did not go to Qianqing Palace because the emperor was not there. He found the emperor by the lake.
Because the emperor is learning swordsmanship here, let’s not talk about killing people for the time being, at least he can keep fit.
"The humble minister Yang Tinghe is here to see Your Majesty."
"Ping Sheng."
Zhu Houzhao wiped his sweat and directly explained his purpose to Yang Ting and him, "I remember that when you were the magistrate in Qingzhou, you had a magistrate under you. What was his name?"
Yang Tinghe was stunned, why did the emperor suddenly mention such a person.
"Your Majesty, there is such a person named Han Ziren."
"I remember that he was born as a scholar, but his actions were a bit rough as a warrior's. Where is he now?
? "
Yang Tinghe honestly confessed, "Han Ziren joined the Shangzhi personal guard and has already reached 100 households in Zhenwu guard."
If he has one hundred households, he is no longer a small official.
Above a hundred households is a thousand households, and above a thousand households is the commander of the Yiwei. The commander of each guard can leave an impression on the emperor's mind.
"What is this person's character like?"
Yang Tinghe said: "He has a strong mind and dares to do things. But... he is a little frivolous."
"Find an opportunity and bring it here."
"yes."
Zhu Houzhao was brewing an idea. This idea stems from his unfamiliarity with Jin Yiwei.
This strangeness refers to the complex organization inside, and he doesn't seem to understand the management. Because Zhu Yuanzhang was the first to create the Jinyiwei itself, but he did not have a ready-made template for him to set. He was probably crossing the river by feeling the stones, so the patchwork became more and more complicated. Later, Zhu Di changed it again and it became more complicated.
By the time of Zhu Houzhao, the Jinyi Guards had dozens of Qianhu Offices under their jurisdiction. Each of the Qianhu Offices had ten divisions. They were responsible for support and protection. In addition, there were also the Zhenfu Division and the Experience Division.
The concept of the Experience Department is similar to the Attendant's Room, which is in charge of clerical transactions. As for the Zhenfu Division, it is divided into the South Town Fu Division and the North Town Fu Division.
Beijing Jinyiwei has both, Nanjing Jinyiwei only has Nanzhen Fusi but not Beizhen Fusi...
In short, it's just a mess of words.
Moreover, there are various functional places inside, such as a place for farming, and a place for training elephants.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't stand it. Jinyiwei was a personal guard who was directly responsible for the emperor. How could he, the emperor, not understand what more than 100,000 people were doing?
Therefore, he wanted to reorganize the Jinyi Guards and divide them according to functions, including guards of honor, patrols and arrests, military intelligence espionage, etc. Each department is in charge of a tongzhi (second-in-command) and is responsible to the first-in-command commander. If additional functions need to be added in the future, That is to say, the quantity changes on this basis, but the structure remains unchanged.
….
In this way, it will be much clearer.
Needless to say, Mao's Chinese language is still used for patrols and arrests.
But it is always bad when the Jinyiwei commander has only one candidate. Then he is not called a candidate. Even if he is called an election, it will be in vain, because there is no choice. This is why we considered summoning Yang Tinghe today.
Moreover, with so many people in the court impeaching Mao Yuwen, the emperor could of course forcibly protect him, but he could also pull out another scholar. In the final analysis, Han Ziren was promoting people, and was not as cruel as Mao Yuwen. Pushing him to the forefront could make those who didn't like it The people from Mao’s Chinese language went to win over him.
Therefore, he reorganized the Jin Yiwei, warned Mao Yuwen while also protecting him in disguise, and responded to the situation in the court... In fact, only one scholar, Han Ziren, was enough.
After thinking about this matter carefully, I feel that this is enough. This is not a big matter, Zhu Houzhao can take care of it.
As for what is really important, it is the situation of King Huai.
The so-called murder and silence is effective in many cases. For example, Mao's language was jealous of the emperor, and the court was in trouble. Under the turmoil, the matter would be abandoned halfway, but Zhu Houzhao was not.
He had already given the order that if Zhan Xiushan did not explain, he would take over the Zhan family in Jiangxi and tell them that if you have a problem, you have a problem.
Now, everyone should be almost arriving in Jiangxi. The whole family has been arrested, why can't they ask a few questions about King Huai's situation?
