Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 170 Inner Court Earthquake (1)

Emperor Chongzhen knew in his heart that, given the current situation and environment, it was absolutely impossible for him to change the fate of Ming Dynasty only by his own efforts.

As long as he messes up this objective fact, no matter how diligent and self-restraining he is, he still doesn't know how to unite all forces that can be united, and adopts methods of dividing, wooing, suppressing, and eliminating to bring Daming back to the original track step by step. , no matter how much you do, it will be useless.

"Eunuch Fang, you know how much the emperor attaches importance to the West Factory and the Inner Factory." Wang Chengen looked serious, looked at Fang Zhenghua, who was favored by him, and said, "According to the rules, I am an expert in the factory. With you, Xiji Shichang, we cannot meet in private until it is fully perfected.

It's just an errand given by the emperor. Our family has been thinking about it all the time. There are some problems that we need to clarify first.

Let's strive for this joint operation of the West Factory and the Inner Factory to successfully complete the errand assigned by the emperor, and find out all the thieves Shuoshu in Huangzhuang. "

"What Eunuch Wang said is also what our family thinks."

Fang Zhenghua nodded and said: "Our family heard that the emperor has gone to Xiyuan, and it should be for Chen Jisheng and the others, but we have no right to intervene or ask more questions about the affairs of the outer dynasty.

But the emperor is worried about the world, and if he can get more money and food, he will solve more, so it is particularly important to tidy up Huangzhuang this time. "

As the eunuch of the inner court accompanying the expedition, whether it was Wang Chengen or Fang Zhenghua, during Emperor Chongzhen's personal expedition this time, his knowledge also increased a lot.

Seeing Fang Zhenghua's clear attitude, Wang Cheng'en said, "Then our family will get straight to the point. Eunuch Fang, you also know that there are many Huangzhuang under the name of my inner court, all over the prefectures under the Northern Zhili.

If the West Factory and the Inner Factory take action this time and push forward the inspections one by one, there will inevitably be a situation where there will be a panic, and it is not ruled out that there will be leaks that lead to the absconding of the Guanzhuang eunuch.

If we fail to handle this errand, the emperor will definitely be angry, and Eunuch Fang must know what will happen to you and me at that time.

Therefore, our family feels that for this inspection of Huangzhuang, the west factory and the inner factory should formulate a complete investigation plan, and assign factories of corresponding scale according to the size and quantity of Huangzhuang distributed in each prefecture, and rush to the factory according to the emperor's order After these Huangzhuang, a complete blockade was carried out, and a comprehensive review was launched on those eunuchs in charge of the village.

Whenever there is corruption and enrichment, no matter who is standing behind them or who will be involved, they must act according to the rules. "

During the period of following Emperor Chongzhen to fight, whether Wang Chengen or Fang Zhenghua, they all saw the iron-blooded side of Emperor Chongzhen. When reviewing Huangzhuang, Emperor Chongzhen showed a very tough attitude. If they dare to mess up the errand , then what awaits them must be severe punishment.

Compared with offending some people in the inner court, losing the trust of the emperor is the most terrifying thing, so Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua dare not slack off in the slightest.

"Eunuch Wang's proposal is very good."

After Fang Zhenghua pondered for a moment, he continued: "However, our family feels that we need to make it clear that the two of us in the eight prefectures of Beizhili will supervise the four prefectures, so that we can deal with any emergencies as soon as possible. .

Do our best to get the Huangzhuang well organized in the shortest possible time, so that we can clearly report to the emperor when we have a job to do. "

Wang Chengen nodded and said, "I agree."

When the eunuchs in the inner court studied the art of war, the personal armament belonging to Emperor Chongzhen undoubtedly added a decisive force.

Those who can serve as eunuch-level eunuchs in the inner court's twelve supervisors, four divisions and eight bureaus are all able to read and write. The inner court's inner library is not a decoration.

Perhaps Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua did not have a lot of experience in presiding over such a clean-up operation for the first time, but they are familiar with each other once, with more encouragement and support, they will surely accumulate rich experience in house raiding.

Emperor Chongzhen met with Chen Jisheng and the others in Xiyuan, while Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua were formulating the joint operation plan of Xichang and Neichang.

It’s not that the Ming Dynasty has no people who can use it, it depends on how to use it. The eunuchs of the inner court are sent to supervise the army. In name, they are monitoring the army, but in fact they are doing military operations. This is not just asking the blind to embroider. What a fool.

After rushing back to the Military Aircraft Department from Xiyuan, Emperor Chongzhen hadn't had a long rest, and initially formulated the action charter for the purge of Huangzhuang. Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua, who clarified the positions of Xijishi Factory and Dainaihang Factory, came to pay a visit together. Emperor Chongzhen.

"These were discussed and formulated by you?"

Flipping through the memorials in his hand, Emperor Chongzhen was a little surprised, looked at Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua who stood respectfully, and said, "Yes, yes, I know the necessity of unified action to avoid accidents. Leave it to you, I didn't make a wrong decision."

To be honest, Emperor Chongzhen did not expect that Wang Chengen, Fang Zhenghua and the others would actually prepare the action plan in advance. Originally, he planned to wait for the framework of the West Factory and the Inner Factory to be built, and then tell them this idea, so as to avoid Something leaked happened.

Unexpectedly, everyone is self-taught.

"My lord, if you think there is no problem, then slaves and maidservants, etc., should immediately apply for standard armaments from the Military Bureau." Wang Chengen stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Try to spread them all over Beizhili in the shortest possible time." All the Huangzhuang under the rule will be inspected, and those house thieves in the inner court, Shuoshu, will be caught."

"Go do it."

Emperor Chongzhen closed the memorial, looked at Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua and said, "However, there is one thing that you can clarify further.

The high-level executives called Xichang and Inner Factory are each in charge of a prefecture, and they are responsible for supervising and handling. You two are responsible for the four prefectures under your jurisdiction, and your subordinates are specifically responsible for the investigation and handling. You sit in the middle and dispatch, so that you can master more More initiative.

The two of you, one is the admiral Xijishichang, and the other is the admiral Dainaichang. You must know how to cultivate talents under your command, what power should be seized, and what power should be released. This is a science. "

Emperor Chongzhen didn't mind being more patient with loyal eunuchs like Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua, and taught them how to control others.

After all, the West Factory in the future will monitor the existence of the inner court and the East Factory, and will also be responsible for professional house raids. The more talents in the inner factory, the better for him, the emperor of Ming Dynasty.
