Daming: Lend the system to Emperor Hongwu at the beginning

Chapter 170 Hai Rui Enters Beijing, Old Zhu Liangjian
Hu Zongxian did not come to Beijing alone.

He also brought his staff and three generals under him.

These four people are Xu Wei, Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Wang Chonggu.

"Butang, do you really want to bring us to face the Holy Spirit together?"

"Has His Majesty really summoned us?"

"Will you be punished for doing this?" Xu Wei, who is 41 years old this year, is fidgeting in the classroom waiting for the interview, his face full of worries about gains and losses.

He couldn't help being nervous.

As a great talent in Ming Dynasty who can be tied with Xie Jin and Yang Shen, Xu Wei prides himself on his outstanding talent and extraordinary talent.

However, he had failed to pass the provincial examination for eight consecutive years. In this age of learning and excellence, if he followed the normal track, he was doomed to be unable to be an official for the rest of his life.

He had already given up his mind, and had been serving as Hu Zongxian's staff for more than ten years.

The cooperation between the two parties is also very pleasant.

There were rumors that Hu Zongxian was about to be dismissed by the court, and he was a little disappointed, but suddenly, things took a huge turn for the better. Hu Zongxian actually received the imperial decree to go to Beijing to face the emperor.

And what was even more unexpected was that he was mentioned in His Majesty's imperial decree, and Hu Zongxian was asked to take him with him by name.

This made Xu Wei a little flattered.

Although he has always boasted that fame and fortune are like floating clouds to me, but now that there is really a fame and fortune in front of him, can he really be regarded as floating clouds?

This is definitely not possible.

In his dreams, he wanted to be an official to show off his ambitions and live up to his talents.

That's why he was so nervous.

"What if His Majesty wrote the name wrong?"

"What if His Majesty can't remember who he is?"

"What if...he was too nervous to wait and suddenly passed out while facing the saint?"

Xu Wei's mind was spinning fast at the moment, but all he could think about were various accidents.

His palms were sweating, the muscles all over his body were tense, and he even felt that his breathing became difficult.

"Master Wen...!" Hu Zongxian called out.

"Huh?" Xu Wei suddenly turned his head to look at Hu Zongxian.

"I've never seen Xu Wenchang like this!"

Hu Zongxian stretched out his hand and patted Xu Wei's shoulder, and said with a gentle smile, "What are you afraid of? Don't forget that you are a genius!"

All of a sudden, Xu Wei couldn't help being clever all over.

"Yup!"

"What are you afraid of, what is there to be afraid of?"

"I'm not one of those who try to catch fame."

"I am Xu Wenchang, who is the most talented person in the world, and I am the one who dominates the seven talents. Aren't I a face saint? I have nothing to be afraid of." Xu Wei's face regained his confidence and calmness in an instant.

"Hu Butang, Your Majesty has summoned you!" At this moment, a soft voice sounded from behind.

Hu Zongxian stood up quickly when he heard the words, and found that it was Huang Jin. With a smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Eunuch Huang!"

"Let's go, let's go face the saint together!" Hu Zongxian turned his head and said to Xu Wei and the others.

Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Wang Chonggu stood up quickly, but only then did they realize that Xu Wei was still sitting there with a confident smile on his face.

"What is Lao Xu doing in a daze? Hurry up!" Yu Dayou urged.

"Didn't you see that my legs are shaking and I can't stand up?"

"Hurry up and help me!" Xu Wei blushed.

"Pfft...!" Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Wang Chonggu, three strong men with big hearts, couldn't help laughing out loud.

Soon the three of them and Xu Wei, supported by the three of them, saw the legendary Holy Majesty.

Zhu Yuanzhang is currently practicing martial arts in the yard in military uniform.

He is not like the old otaku of Emperor Jiajing, who hides in the abode all day long and pretends to be mysterious. He likes to run around and look around.

The sun was good today, and he was going to meet the warriors soon, so he suddenly became interested and wanted to use two tricks.

So he played it.

Seeing Hu Zongxian and the others arriving, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but smile, and looked past Hu Zongxian to Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Wang Chonggu behind him.

The aura of warriors on the three of them could not be concealed, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been killing all his life, naturally confirmed their identities at a glance.

"I have seen His Majesty!" The five people saluted together.

"Get up, get up."

"You are all Ming's anti-Japanese heroes, and we don't have the habit of letting heroes worship us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang flicked the long sword in his hand while speaking, and it turned into a sword shadow and fell into the scabbard in the distance.

With just this one hand, Qi Jiguang and the other three warriors who were kneeling on the ground couldn't help but look bright.

The three of them glanced at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes.

Your Majesty is actually a master of martial arts?
This simply subverted their three views.

Especially Yu Dayou, who is the best kungfu among the three, he has better eyesight, and he can tell at a glance that this majesty is at least a master of energy transformation.

While this shocked him, he couldn't help feeling a little closer.

After all, people who practice martial arts have a good impression of the same kind.

"What are you doing in a daze..., our tea has been prepared for you, let's all sit down and talk!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is really different!"

"How could he be so approachable before?" Hu Zongxian had met Emperor Jiajing before, and when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang again, he immediately noticed a huge change between the two.

Can't help but feel a little surprised and uncertain.

Is this really the current saint?
Why is his personality so different from before, as if he was a different person.

"Do you know what we asked you to do this time?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about the expressions on the faces of several people, and asked with a smile while sitting in the upper seat.

Seeing that several people shook their heads, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't show off, and waved directly behind him.

Behind him, Huang Jin sent over with a three-point will.

"This is the decree of the canonized earl. Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Wang Chonggu each have a share, are you satisfied?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked around the three of them and asked.

"Plop!" Yu Dayou couldn't stabilize himself, the chair was smashed by him, and he sat down on the ground.

"how?"

"Not satisfied?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked jokingly.

"Fear at the end!"

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"The last general... The last general really didn't expect to be knighted!" Yu Dayou knelt on the ground and said incoherently.

"It's okay!"

"Get up!" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.

He had read the history books of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally knew the great achievements of this general, but because he didn't know how to respect civil servants, he was regarded as a firefighter by the court, appointed as a general when there was a war, and dismissed from office when there was no war.

Compared with Qi Jiguang, he is also very capable, but his experience is much worse.

To be honest, Daming owed all these generals in the mid-Ming Dynasty.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang was willing to knight them, not just because of this debt.

"We conferred titles on you not to let you live your life, but because you will be needed soon!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the three of them: "The three of you should have brought your own troops this time, right?"

The three nodded without hesitation.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "We need to rectify the Beijing camp next, but the Beijing camp is corrupt. At that time, we want to scatter the bloody soldiers under your hands into the Beijing camp as seeds, so as to change the atmosphere of the Beijing camp. , are you willing?"

The three of them glanced at each other and nodded again without hesitation.

"Willing to die for His Majesty!" The three said in unison.

"it is good!"

"That way we can rest assured."

After finishing these three generals, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his attention to Hu Zongxian again: "The next most important thing for Ming Dynasty is to reorganize the armaments starting from the Beijing camp. We are going to hand over this matter to Zhang Juzheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, and you?"

"How about you temporarily serve as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to cooperate with him?"

"Of order!" Hu Zongxian also nodded without hesitation.

In fact, he had guessed before that it was very likely that he came to Beijing to serve as the six ministers.

Now it seems obviously right.

Finally Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Wei.

"Xu Wenchang, you are white, if we give you a fourth-rank official, would you dare to be a fourth-rank official?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with narrowed eyes.

"Dare, as long as your Majesty dares to give, the grassroots will dare to be!" Xu Wei said with high spirits.

At this moment, he no longer has the slightest worry about gains and losses and fear.

"it is good!"

"Then you can be the Minister of Dali Temple!"

"Hand over the prison for us, and treat the diseases of Daming...!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.

Xu Wei didn't even know how he walked out of Xiyuan, he only knew that when he was walking, his whole body was floating.

"Your Majesty is going to create a big prison!" On the way out, Hu Zongxian suddenly said.

"Ah?" Xu Wei turned his head in a daze.

"Your Minister of Dali Temple, my Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, and Hai Rui's Zuodu Censor, all three judicial departments have been replaced. This is enough to explain a lot of problems." Hu Zongxian said.

"who cares!"

"Anyway, I'm going to ruin your Majesty's heart!" Xu Wei said with a bright face.

Hu Zongxian couldn't help flashing a trace of worry in his eyes.

Although His Majesty has begun to work hard, but now he is a little afraid that His Majesty is using too much force.

The current Ming Dynasty cannot stand strong medicine...

Just one hour after Hu Zongxian's face-to-face meeting, Hai Rui also entered the palace to meet Zhu Yuanzhang.

The two wanted to talk for an hour in Xiyuan, but no one knew what they talked about, only that when they came out of Xiyuan, Hai Rui's eyes were frighteningly bright.

Speaking of which, this is now a full-fledged political star.

It can be said that the Yan Party was able to fall because of this person who blew the charge.

Eighty percent of the officials in Zhejiang also moved their heads because of him.

There were even rumors that the reason why His Majesty's temperament changed drastically was probably because of this Hai Rui.

This person is simply a real evil star.

Now the evil star has entered the capital, and he has also become a saint, and it looks like he has even won a holy family.

This made everyone feel their scalps go numb.

Especially those corrupt officials, they were so scared that they couldn't sleep.

No one wants to be targeted by this great Ming sword.

However... this one did live up to everyone's expectations. On the second day after he entered Beijing, on the day he was appointed by His Majesty as the Censor of the Zuo Capital, Hai Rui went directly to the memorial and fired his first shot as the Censor of the Zuo Capital.

He directly impeached the Xungui Group headed by British Duke Zhang Rong and Dingguo Duke Xu Guangzuo for embezzling and accepting bribes, forcibly occupying land, embezzling imperial property, treating soldiers as domestic slaves, and so on for 21 counts...

And each of them has definite evidence, there are witnesses, and there are even sufferers.

This moment, the peaceful city of Beijing seemed to have been stabbed into a hornet's nest.

The nobles who had been eating melons quietly by the side and happily watching the civil servants pinch each other suddenly realized that Hai Rui's first knife had actually hit them.

Moreover, the knife was fast and accurate, and it directly pierced their hearts, catching them off guard.

However, just when they wanted to fight back, something happened that caught them off guard.

Both the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple actually accepted these cases, and then quickly sent the summons documents to each of their families.
