This Wu Yong must be just a right councilor. There must be at least three supervisors above him.
Wu Yong smiled bitterly and quickly explained, "I misunderstood the young envoy. They returned to their hometown early."
"Going back to your hometown? Who specifically approved it?"
Xu Qin became anxious when he heard this.
At such a critical moment, some people dare to go home early to celebrate the New Year!
Skip?
This is lawless and unreasonable!
"Oh, sir, no one criticized it! It was after the Jingnan incident that all the officials in the ministries ran away and went home after hearing the news."
He lowered his voice and explained quietly:
"Some were unwilling to serve as officials in the new dynasty, and some were afraid that the Jinyiwei would be caught as members of the Jianwen Remaining Party and sent to prison, so they all ran away."
Xu Qin was startled when he heard this and said in surprise:
"There are still people who don't want to be officials? Are there many such people?"
"There are so many... so many. There are one or two hundred officials in the court and central government, and there are countless minor officials in Yingtian Mansion's Yamen."
Wu Yong answered truthfully.
Damn it, no wonder the court keeps catching people blind.
"Then why didn't you run away? Aren't you afraid that Jin Yiwei would suspect you of being a remnant of Jianwen?"
Wu Yong smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said:
"Young Envoy, I don't know something. I am not an official from a formal background. I relied on Emperor Taizu Gao to kill all the court officials so that I could become an official in the court."
He may be talking about the Lan Yu case, in which Lao Zhu killed more than 20,000 people in one go.
More than half of the officials in the imperial court and the Yingtian mansion in the capital were implicated, making it impossible for the yamen to operate normally.
Wu Yong came in at that time, pretending to be a fool.
"My family is not considered wealthy. There are several people in our family, and we all rely on this salary. How can I dare to resign?"
"What's more, today's emperor, who is wise and powerful, conquers the world with a small area, he will definitely be an emperor with great achievements in the future. Being able to serve the Ming Jun and the Holy Lord is also a blessing for the lower official."
The second half of this sentence was purely to slap Zhu Di's rainbow fart.
Knowing that the relationship between the young master and the Queen is extraordinary, this boy did it deliberately.
"It's good that you think so. When the day comes when I resign, the post of General Political Envoy will be yours."
Xu Qin teased him, but Wu Yong was so frightened that his face turned pale.
"Young Master, could it be that your official said something wrong and made you angry?"
"I have no intention of doing this, sir. Please be aware of this."
Looking at Wu Yong who kept bowing, Xu Qin laughed dumbly.
"You're right. The main reason is that I have no interest in the position of Major Envoy. I have a title in my family that needs to be inherited, not to mention the affairs of Zhan Shifu in the East Palace!"
Xu Qin continued to laugh and said:
"From now on, you must work hard, study and work seriously, and strictly demand yourself according to the standards of a general minister, do you understand?"
Inadvertently, Xu Qin followed Zhu Di's example and drew a big cake for Wu Yong.
After hearing this, Wu Yong couldn't help gritting his teeth and secretly laughing.
Damn it, I have been around for most of my life, and I am just a council member from the fifth rank. A teenager in my family is directly the general political envoy, from the third rank.
What's even more irritating is that he doesn't even look down on this young man who is a third-grade general envoy, and wants to go home and inherit the dukedom.
Why is there such a big gap between this person and other people?
Then again, Xu Qin was willing to give him a chance, even if there was only a 10% chance, he was willing to give it a try.
We still have to have dreams, what if they come true?
"Actually, there are quite a lot of things that our General Affairs Department can do. For example, if two yamen have a quarrel over the same matter, whoever can hand in the memorial first and let His Majesty see it first will be able to seize the opportunity. .”
"That's the truth behind the saying that first comes first and last comes first."
Wu explained in a low voice.
On the other hand, he was cheering Xu Qin on, fearing that he would give up and quit.
If someone else comes in and eats and wipes everything, Wu will have nothing to do.
Don't think that the Secretary of General Affairs is just an errand deliverer. In fact, he has hidden secrets.
Xu Qin thought silently, pretended to be quite interested, and asked:
"If that's the case, what's the trick here?"
When Wu Yong saw that Xu Qin was interested, he got excited and continued with excitement:
"The daily responsibility of our General Secretary is to judge and classify the size of government affairs and decide whether to hand it over directly to the ministries or submit it to the palace for approval."
"There is a lot of mystery here. Whether you make a big fuss out of a molehill or make a big deal out of a trivial matter depends entirely on your subjective consciousness."
Xu Qin nodded understandingly.
The methods of officialdom have been similar throughout the ages. It depends on your skills and handling level whether you change the soup or the medicine.
Xu Qin thought for a while, then smiled and said to Wu Yong:
"Senator Wu, have you delivered any particularly difficult memorials to the General Affairs Department recently?"
"As a young envoy, I am new here, and I really want to get to work immediately and perform well in front of the emperor, so that others will not gossip about me."
Wu Yong thought with a sullen face:
This person is really a young man who says one thing and does another. Just now he said that he has no interest in the general affairs envoy.
Now on a whim, I want to get to work right away.
This is just confusing.
"There has been something very difficult recently."
"In the past, people kept reporting to the Yingtianfu Yamen, saying that the Uliangha soldiers stationed near Jiangpuding Mountain robbed civilian girls for their sexual pleasure."
"A few days ago, they actually broke into a friendly army camp, raped and raped the female relatives of the soldiers, and even looted the Jiangpu military camp. Now it made a big fuss."
"The key is the three Wuliangha guards. Yingtianfu Yamen can't control it. Now that other friendly forces are involved, they have no choice but to complain to His Majesty."
"We, the General Affairs Department, must speak up and uphold the dignity of the imperial court and His Majesty the Emperor."
When Xu Qin heard this, he understood immediately.
Not long ago, the three guards of Wuliangha had determined their respective territories and specific requirements. The imperial court officially appointed Xu Li as the chief military officer of the Xuanfu and concurrently as the admiral of the Daning Dusi.
Chen Wen, the former commander of the left guard of Yingzhou, was appointed as the commander of Daning Dusi, stationed in Daning and fully managed the Daning area.
Around Xuanfu and between Daning Dusi, several military towns and camps were built to carry out land reclamation and farming.
Wu Liangha Sanwei is a mute who eats Coptis chinensis and cannot express his sufferings.
The anger in their hearts was vented around the camp.
It is not difficult to understand why the garrison harassed the people living nearby.
Although the army has military discipline and rules, the ranks of its soldiers are mixed, and violations of military discipline and rules often occur and have become commonplace.
But when it comes to attacking the female relatives of friendly troops, the situation is not simple.
Military matters are all under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Army Governor's Office, which is controlled by Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu and other newly wealthy Jingnan nobles.
The new Jingnan nobles today are exactly the same as the Huaixi nobles when the Ming Dynasty was founded.
They bullied the weak very rampantly and ran rampant inside and outside the capital, causing public dissatisfaction.
Except for Zhu Di, no one could suppress these new nobles. Even the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Imperial Censor did not dare to interfere.
Ji Gang's Jin Yiwei also turned a blind eye to them.
We can't label them as remnants of Jianwen.
I can't put it on.
Unless Zhu Di gives an order.
"Which garrison came to complain?"
