Love you guys!

After all, it is very difficult to deal with the time when this happened. If he sent some crooked melons and cracked dates to the internal army because he wanted to thoroughly investigate the Beijing camp, Zhu Shitai would not be able to bear the responsibility if there were problems in the palace in the future.
"Master Lu, with all due respect, the people in the Southern Division are mostly internal reviewers and document writers. Their skills are not as good as that of the Northern Division Fu Division, right?"
Call your job when you work!
Just now you could call people Xiaolu outside, but now you have to be polite in public.
Lu Yi was stunned for a while, then laughed and said, "Young Master, you are worrying too much!"
Lu Yi waved his hand, and two Jinyi guards immediately brought two chairs. Lu Yi himself motioned to Zhu Shitai to sit down, and watched him sit down before he sat down.
"Yes! Beizhen Fusi often handles cases outside. They are responsible for murders and arson. Naturally, they are more skilled!"
"But the people in Nansi are not without merit. Although they are not as good as those who do the dirty work, they still have their own strengths."
Zhu Shitai listened carefully.
"What are your strengths?"
"What the hell have you been doing in Jinyiwei for so many years?" Lu Yi thought to himself.
There was still a smile on his face and he explained patiently.
"My young master doesn't have much contact with Nan Si, so it's normal not to know!"
Only then did Zhu Shitai realize that he had lost someone, and his face turned red.
"The selection criteria for the internal army that His Majesty personally ordered to be formed this time are very strict, and good skills are just one of them!" Lu Yi poured tea for Zhu Shitai and said slowly, "The young master feels that the internal army guarding the palace is the largest What are the requirements?”
"One versus ten?"
"Or do you need to have clairvoyance and ears?"
"neither!"
Lu Yi continued, "The most important requirement is that the foundation must be clean!"
"For those who protect His Majesty, their martial arts skills are secondary. The most important thing is to make people feel at ease! Loyal enough!"
Zhu Shitai felt it made sense, nodded and waited for the next sentence.
"The biggest advantage of Nansi people is that they have a clean foundation!"
"It's different from the one where you deal with swords and guns. Because the job in Nansi is stable and not easy to make mistakes, there are many people vying to get into Nansi."
"If you drop a brick in Nansi, you can hit a large number of hereditary imperial guards!"
"Their ancestors have held the official position of Jinyiwei for several generations, and they have been deeply favored by the emperor for generations! And if you think about it, since the official position of Jinyiwei has been hereditary for several generations, there is nothing to criticize about their personal conduct! Isn't it?"
"Yes!" Zhu Shitai said, "Otherwise, if I had done something, I would have lost this career long ago!"
Lu Yi agreed, "So, these people are a little less skilled, but of course they can still deal with a few ordinary people! They have a clean foundation and can be checked for generations, so these people can use it with confidence!"
There are indeed many hereditary positions in Jinyiwei, most of which are awarded by the emperor to the descendants of meritorious officials or relatives of close eunuchs.
So these people, just like the nobles, have everything they have now thanks to the emperor's gift!
Therefore, they are loyal enough to the royal family and are difficult to be penetrated by external forces.
In addition, Nansi is actually a group of people who sit in offices and have safe and risk-free jobs, so most of these hereditary positions are concentrated in Nanzhen Fusi.
In comparison, Beizhen Fusi's days were like licking blood from the edge of a knife.
And because it is often involved in various military affairs and royal secrets, people often disappear inexplicably!
After hearing Lu Yi's explanation, Zhu Shitai was relieved.
He stood up and cupped his fists and said, "Thank you Mr. Lu for your patience in explaining, I was rude just now!"
"Hahahaha!" The latter laughed and stood up, patting him on the shoulder, "We are all relatives, it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter!"
"It's all office work, there's nothing wrong with asking a few more questions!"
"Then I won't hinder the young father-in-law here. You can take your time and do your work!"
Zhu Shitai said quickly, "Master Lu is leaving now? Don't you want some tea?"
"Hey!" Lu Yi shook his head, "The tea... is still delicious from Nanzhen Fusi, hahahaha!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
"Then I won't send you off!"
As Lu Yi walked off the stage, dozens of Jinyi guards below automatically lined up in two rows, opening a passage for Lu Yi.
"Congratulations, Mr. Lu!"
The shouts of dozens of people almost shook the roof of the hall.
Zhu Shitai watched Lu Yi leave, and then his eyes fell on these dozens of people.
And they also turned around to look at this thin but very handsome young man.
It felt like a young wolf facing dozens of old wolves.
…
In the evening, the living room of the British government palace.
Zhang Rong did not take off his military uniform. Instead, he even wore his helmet tightly and sat on the main seat with a stern expression.
There were dozens of people sitting densely opposite him.
These are all hereditary nobles who hold military positions in the capital today.
Zhu Shitai took over Beizhen Fusi. He went to check the empty pay in the Beijing camp. What he checked was that it was bought with money. Or the generals of the army, in order to get free pay, on paper removed the soldiers who had been dead for decades. Written as a living situation.
And Zhang Rong knew very well that the emperor's intention in letting him help Zhu Shitai was to use his title of British Duke and his power as the highest military noble to speak to these hereditary nobles.
After all, Lao Zhu was already in jail at this time, and Xiao Zhu's words were lacking in seniority and prestige, so they might not listen.
What? Isn't this the emperor's order? Dare they not listen?
Haha, the emperor has a lot of orders, but I haven’t seen every one of them being executed completely!
Besides, when the time comes, it will be Cheng Guogong Zhu’s family who will be held accountable by the emperor. What does it have to do with them?
It would be a lie to say that they are not jealous of Zhu Xizhong's favor over the past 20 years.
The fall of Duke Cheng Guo and his son was not a bad thing for them. Instead, they took the opportunity to divide his power and stuff more of their own people into the army for personal gain!
Therefore, it is really difficult for Zhu Shitai to speak here, noble people.
It’s up to Zhang Rong, a noble man, to take the lead!
Even Dingguo Gong and his family who came after Xu Da did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Zhang Rong. After all, his power and decades of favor were there.
Moreover, these honorable nobles also know that Duke Cheng and his family may fall, but the British Duke and Zhang family will fall?
Unless the Ming Dynasty dies!
And these nobles, after hundreds of years, have already formed an airtight chain of interests in various places.
Marriages, armies, and various outside businesses are all interest groups that protect and help each other.
Tangled and intricate.
"Everyone!" Zhang Rong said, "Do you all know about Lao Zhu?"
"The situation is like this. Just after the new emperor ascended the throne, such a big scandal happened in the capital. Everyone here, we all have to give an explanation to the court and His Majesty. Don't you think so, Duke Ding?"
Xu Yande, who was named by Zhang Rong, nodded.
Xu Yande, the seventh Duke of Dingguo, now leads the Central Military Command, and some of the guards in the capital are also under his jurisdiction.
Moreover, as the most distinguished military commander second only to the British Duke Zhang Rong, he was involved in military business, free wages, and so on. I don’t know how many people came through his path.
