Chapter 529 Factional Dispute
In a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of July.

Everything in the capital was calm, and after Zhang Cong was dispatched to Shanxi as the deputy envoy of the Procuratorate, the dispute over the ceremony temporarily subsided.

In the name of Tang Yin, Zhu Hao reported the accounts of the Daming River Project in the past few years, and there was no disturbance for the time being. However, Zhu Hao came up with an idea for Zhu Si, giving each of the soldiers on the Nine Sides two taels of silver, and the money used was all The remaining silver after the summer grain was put into the warehouse that year was also exchanged for silver. At the same time, the Northwest was asked to check the silver taels owed to military households in the past few years and let them make up for it.

The matter seems small, but it is very useful for buying people's hearts, and it is also a problem for the Ministry of Households.

Didn't you say you have no money?Then continue to consume you, let you temporarily worry about the money, and also create a reason for the new emperor to handle the river project.

Another major event happened at the end of June, that is, the mausoleum of Emperor Zhengde was officially named "Kangling", and the Yiyong Zhongwei was renamed Kanglingwei, who was responsible for guarding Kangling.

"...The weather has finally cooled down a bit, but it still doesn't even rain today."

Su Xigui invited Zhu Hao to a banquet this day.

After the opening of the first bank in Beijing, Su Xigui always wanted to invite Zhu Hao, the behind-the-scenes owner, over for a drink, but Zhu Hao kept refusing on the grounds that he was busy with business. After entering July, the catalog of "Wu Zong Shi Lu" was also on the right track. As an ordinary editor, Zhu Hao was not as busy as he was when finishing the manuscript, so he sneaked out to meet Su Xigui.

Su Xigui poured Zhu Hao tea, using iced tea.

"This is the herbal tea prepared according to what Xiaodangjia said...you have to taste it, right?"

Su Xigui looked enthusiastic.

Zhu Hao said: "Su Dongzhu, I heard that the Ministry of Officials has recently started to purge the Six Ministries of Nanjing. Don't you want to ask me about related matters?"

When Su Xigui heard it, his eyes widened in an instant: "You can't hide anything from the young master. The matter about Mr. Huang...is there any solution? I heard that Old Shangshu Sun is already on his way to the capital, and it is estimated that it will take more than ten days...to arrive Beijing."

What Su Xigui hoped was for Huang Zan to become the Minister of Beihubu.

The household department is Huang Zan's home field, and it can bring Su Xigui a lot of benefits.

Zhu Hao shook his head: "It's a bit difficult... Mr. Sun has not been to the capital, but his prestige is there, and no one can doubt his appointment as the minister. As for Huang Gong... first make sure that the position of Minister of the Nanhu Department will not change. If someone wants to transfer him to a job, or let him go to work..."

"If you're idle... Be a minister of the Southern Ministry of Rites? Or an official? Hehe, as long as you are an official, Huang Gong is still in good health, and he can contribute to the court for a few more years."

Su Xigui has Huang Zan as his backer, earning a lot of money, and now he has just opened a bank account with Zhu Hao. At a critical moment, Huang Zan's resignation will have a great impact on Su Xigui, so he wants to keep Huang Zan's position at all costs, waiting for promotion .

Zhu Haodao: "As far as I know, some people now want to make a fuss about the unclear accounts of the Southern Household Department during His Majesty's southern tour, and mention that there are a lot of silver and grain in the treasury that do not match the accounts. The deficit of Beihubu was moved to Nanhubu, and Huang Gong was the right servant of Beihubu in the past few years, this matter..."

"This...how is this possible? When Huang Gong was in Beihu, he managed the food and pay of the Xuanfu more. When will it be Huang Gong's turn to intervene in the warehouse in Taicang, the capital? People in the court must behave according to the rules!"

When Su Xigui said this, he slapped his forehead, "Forget it, I already knew what kind of nature they are. If things can be pushed out, they will never be taken back. How can you expect them not to shirk their responsibilities indiscriminately? If it's really not a big loss, my lord Contacting some people can make it up, I'm afraid of this gap..."

Zhu Hao looked at Su Xigui.

This old boy's attitude towards things is still different from that of people.

I heard that there is a deficit, no matter whether it is caused by your own backer, you actually want to spend money in it?You Su Xigui really know how to behave!

That is, can your family fortune be compared with that of the imperial court?
Do you really think that you are as rich as an enemy?

Zhu Haodao: "Let Huang Gong resolutely push back the accusations. You can't take everything on yourself. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Huang Gong has been trying to keep the finances of the household department in the past few years. If he is responsible for everything, how can it be?" Didn't he take advantage of the wishes of those shameless villains?

"This year, in order to fill the vacancy in the household department, Xiayan may add another one million salts. Even if the southern households department does not lack money, they will use as much salt as possible to go to the south."

Su Xigui pondered for a while, but couldn't understand Zhu Hao's meaning for a while.

"It is to let Nanhu and Beihu fight against each other, paving the way for Mr. Sun's return to the court. Otherwise, how can a new official take office?"

Zhu Hao reminded with a smile.

Su Xigui thought again.

The Beihu Department is still under the control of Yang Tinghe's faction. When Sun Jiao is in the capital, even if Sun Jiao does not join the new emperor, he can be regarded as a neutral faction. Before the emperor took control of the northern and southern household departments, of course he had to do something.

The Ministry of Households not only has the affairs of the Ministry of Finance, but also storage matters such as Taicang. Of course, the emperor wanted to completely control the financial power in his hands. Just controlling the Ministry of Accounts was tantamount to getting the ledger but not the key to the warehouse.

"understood."

Su Xigui is shrewd after all, Zhu Hao already understood after he woke up a little bit.

Create a confrontational situation first, let Sun hand over to clean up the mess, and then take the opportunity to clean up the affairs outside the situation. This is the next plan of the new emperor.

……

……

Business is over.

For the time being, Su Xigui doesn't have to worry about Huang Zan's job change.

Since the emperor needs Huang Zan's support in the Nanhu Department, Huang Zan will stay in the Nanhu Department. People from the faction replaced Nanhubu Shangshu.

The succession of main positions in Ming Dynasty is very different from faction.

Now is the time when the new emperor and Yang Tinghe are fighting for power. The yamen that was originally in control will definitely not let people from other factions get involved. Even if they really change people, they must find people from the same faction. There must be an exchange of interests in other areas.

It is as if the official, military, and household systems in the last years of Zhengde have always been controlled by the factions of Lu Wan and Wang Qiong. Behind them are the mediation and acquiescence of Zhu Houzhao, Jiang Bin and others. After the emperor died, Lu Wan and Wang Qiong fell one after another, and the system gradually disintegrated. The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War belonged to Yang Tinghe, but the Ministry of Households fell into the hands of the new emperor.

Wang Shouren has always been depressed, which is also related to his belonging to Wang Qiong's faction. Even though Wang Shouren had a chance to be promoted in the early years of Jiajing, the Yang Tinghe faction suppressed him to the limit and tried every means to make him lose Zhu Si's trust.

In addition to Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing, who is currently at home, is in a similar situation.

So after Zhang Cong proposed the Great Ceremony Discussion, regardless of Yang Yiqing's or Wang Shouren's previous opinions, they all stood on Zhang Cong's standpoint and supported Zhang Cong's strategy for the Great Ceremony Discussion. This was also the result of factional struggles, because they knew that Supporting Yang Tinghe will not bring him any benefits, it is better to support the new emperor to bring a turn for his career.

"Little master, I also got a piece of news that Mr. Yang Ge intends to transfer Qiao Shangshu from the Southern Military Department to the capital as the Northern Official Department Shangshu. I heard that this matter has reached the stage of court push. I don't know... Is there any relevant news?"

After Su Xigui ensured that Huang Zan's status would not be changed for the time being, what he cared about was what would happen to the officialdom of the Southern Sixth Division.

It is obvious that in the next six southern books, people from the Yang Tinghe faction will be promoted. It is not that most of the Yang Tinghe faction will keep their original official positions, and some may even be ordered to resign from office. Jiang Bin and Qian Ning are dead, but the involvement in the case It's not over yet, and with the impact of the previous Lu Wan case, many people were involved for no reason.

All you need is a reason for your resignation.

Zhu Haodao: "Your Majesty wants Wang Zhongcheng, the governor of southern Jiangxi and the military counselor, to be the secretary of the Southern Military Department. This matter is being sought."

"Is it... accurate?"

Su Xigui looked happy.

Because Huang Zan and Wang Shouren have a long-standing friendship, and both of them are members of Wang Qiong's faction. Huang Zan's position will be more stable if he was the Minister of the Southern Military Department.

Zhu Hao shook his head: "It's not easy."

"hiss……"

Of course Su Xigui knew that the post of Minister of the Southern Military Department was originally a member of Yang Tinghe's faction, how could he easily hand over the post to Wang Shouren?

Even if Wang Shouren's root is Zheng Miaohong, and he is the son of Wang Hua from the cabinet minister system of the Imperial Academy, after all, Wang Shouren has never been in the officialdom of the capital, nor has he joined Yang Tinghe's faction.

"Wang Zhongcheng... Maybe he doesn't want to be a minister in the court either?"

Zhu Hao said something again.

Su Xigui asked: "Young Master, isn't he going to help?"

Zhu Hao really wanted to say, it's not that I don't want to help, but that the timing is wrong.

Knowing that there is a conflict between Wang Shouren and Yang Tinghe, and trying to help with all his strength, this will seriously aggravate the conflict between the emperor and Yang Tinghe, and the focus of the battle between the emperor and Yang Tinghe is still on the ceremony, which is about the title of Princess Jiang, not good Expand further.

Zhu Hao is familiar with history. Wang Shouren finally won the position of Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing in the [-]th year of Zhengde. The emperor helped.

If you want to make good use of Wang Shouren's card, it's best to wait for Yang Tinghe to fall first.

Moreover, Wang Shouren is indeed not an administrative official who governs the six yamen. His ability lies in governing the local area, suppressing bandits, suppressing bandits, and even guarding the nine sides. That is Wang Shouren's unique skill.

Zhu Hao said: "Southern Military Department, Your Majesty is bound to win this time, but the method needs to be considered. Don't worry about this, Dongzhu Su. The imperial court is currently extremely short of military salaries. Your Majesty means that you want Mr. Tang to be more important in the Ministry of Households. Further, at least... to be the head of the household department, but you need to have merit."

"Oh……"

Su Xigui immediately smiled and said, "Understood, I understand. The matter of the military salary is on my shoulders."
