Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

At the same time, Beijing.Jinyi's pro-army command division, Beizhen Fusi Yamen.

When it comes to Jinyiwei, in the eyes of future generations, these spies, together with the eunuchs in Dongchang, are the darkest existence in Ming Dynasty politics.Prisoners can be arrested, interrogated, and killed at will without going through justice.

When the power is at its greatest, it can even hold the emperor above the ground and control the government.

Also because of this, later generations attribute the decline of the Ming Dynasty to this factory guard, or in other words, directly attribute it to Eunuch Wei and the spies in Jinyi.

In the film and television works of later generations, eunuchs and Jin Yiwei appeared on the stage, with the four characters "I am a bad guy" printed on their foreheads.

Jinyiwei's Prison and Dongchang's Anti-Corruption Factory are also described as the most eerie places in the world.

But at the moment, the sun is shining brightly in Beizhen Fusizhong, and the yard is full of flowers. An old man about 50 years old is wearing casual clothes, lying on a bed, enjoying the boundless spring with his eyes closed.

This person is thin and small, and looks very ordinary. People who don't know him think he is a prisoner locked in Zhao Prison.

In fact, unlike what outsiders imagined, Jinyiwei handles imperial cases, and officials below the fourth rank are not qualified to live here at all.Therefore, it is not gloomy here.Prisoners are also not shackled, but confined to one small courtyard after another, and are not allowed to move around at will, but the treatment is very good.

A Jinyi guard in a flying fish suit stood respectfully beside the old man, and whispered: "Master Commander, there is a report that the boys from the Qianhu Office in Nanjing clashed with the left-behind eunuch when they went to Hangzhou on business. I was even slapped in the face..."

"Needless to say, I know about this. This Guibaihu is such a waste. He was slapped by the people in Dongchang and he didn't even dare to pay back. Tell me, what do you want him for?" No need to ask, The old man is Mu Bin, the commander of Jinyiwei today.

Na Jinyi immediately understood: "Yes, the young one knows what to do. It is not good for Baihu to handle affairs, so he will be dismissed on the spot."

"Whatever is not good in doing things is called lack of responsibility and lack of courage." Mu Bin smiled lightly.

It was probably because my family had suffered from the eunuchs, and Jin Yigan felt the same, and said unconsciously: "My lord, we have been dealing with cases outside the Beiya these years, and we are afraid of hands and feet. The servants of the day are by the side of Long Live God, have holy family members, act recklessly, and we are also oppressed by them."

Mu Bin snorted, feeling unhappily aroused by this sentence.

Although there were no earth-shattering events in the history of the Hongzhi Dynasty, the reputation was quite good.After the emperor ascended the throne, he reused civil servants.After 17 years of reign, he recuperated and the country gradually became stronger, which was called Hongzhi Zhongxing by later generations.

Feeling that the previous emperors reused the factory guards and caused great disasters, although Emperor Hongzhi's trust in Dongchang and Jinyiwei did not diminish, he suppressed them intentionally or unintentionally.

Secret agent politics is of course good, it allows the emperor to grasp useful information in the first place.But if you blindly let it go, it will inevitably make its tail too big.Moreover, if these two spy organizations colluded together to deceive Sheng Cong, wouldn't he be blind and deaf, Hongzhi Long Live.

Therefore, after he ascended the throne, Hongzhi tacitly allowed the factory guards to compete with each other and allowed them to fight among themselves, while he only played a mediating role in it.

The effect of this balancing technique is surprisingly good, and it has reached the point of perfection in his hands.

For the emperor's mind, Mou Bin naturally knew it well, and whenever his subordinates had conflicts with Dongchang, they naturally had to fight hard.Only in this way can the emperor know that Jinyiwei and Dongchang are not of one mind, and the emperor can rest assured.

Those who can climb to such a high position are not top-notch, and naturally they have figured out the emperor's thoughts.

It's just that, because Jin Yiwei didn't get that knife, it's not convenient to go to some places.Unlike the eunuchs, they could serve the emperor at any time, and they could even go to the inner palace. In terms of personal relationships, they were much cheaper than Mou Bin.

Also like this, in terms of competition for favor, Jin Yiwei has already fallen behind, and in the past few years, he has been constantly suffering losses at the hands of Dongchang, and gradually the hatred has deepened.

Unfortunately, when the warriors and flags below met the eunuch, they lost their momentum first, and their hands were restrained when they did things.

Mou Bin will naturally try his best to fight for the holy family, but the people below are too disappointing.

"In the end, there are still no talents!" Mou Bin felt emotional in his heart.

There are two sources of Jinyiwei, one is kindness, and the other is self-enrollment.

In the founding of the country, Jin Yiwei was in charge of the palace guards because he was the emperor's pro-army, and most of them were filled by heroes.Later, the palace ban was gradually handed over to the eunuchs.

And kindness is just a means used by the emperor to reward the ministers, and the honored children who have been favored don't go to work, but only receive a salary every month.Jin Yiwei also has no management rights over them, which can be regarded as a disguised form of entrustment.

Those who really do things have to rely on self-recruitment from the civilians and the army.

The problem is that the army is full of big bosses, and Jin Yiwei is responsible for reconnaissance, apprehension, interrogation, etc., with a certain degree of professionalism, not everyone can do it.

As for the folks, those who are really capable are all crowded towards the imperial examination road.

All that was left for Jin Yiwei was crooked melons and rotten dates.

Because of the quality of personnel, Jinyiwei gradually became dilapidated.

In contrast, the people in Dongchang are thriving.Most of the eunuchs entered the palace at the age of five or six, but anyone with a little bit of cleverness would be sent to the inner school to study and train.

The eunuchs will serve the emperor in the future, and they are very likely to enter the Shili Supervisor as internal ministers, so their education must not be sloppy.Not only does the teacher have the honor of a Jinshi, but he also has to be a bachelor.

Under the tutelage of the ministers, the eunuchs with positions and positions in the East Factory randomly pulled someone out of the "Four Books" and "Five Classics".

This kind of character is naturally better at inviting pets than Jin Yiwei.

Thinking of the incompetence of his subordinates, the commanding officer became angry, without opening his eyes, and sneered: "You are not worthy, and you are bullied, that is your own fault. Don't always think that I will stand up for you, I have no Three heads and six arms."

"Yes, my lord taught you the lesson." Jin Yiwei trembled, and then said in a low voice: "Our thousand households in Baoding Mansion came to report. A few days ago, the Metropolitan Procuratorate sent Yu Wangling to inspect the military affairs of the Hebei Guards, and he has returned. Beijing is on a business trip."

"Do you also come to report this kind of trivial matter?" In addition to monitoring the officials of the fourth rank and above in the imperial court, Jin Yiwei also sent out to investigate public opinion. Such worthless information, Mou Bin did not know how much he received every month. It is inevitable that I will be a little irritable in my heart.

"My lord, this Yu Wangling was tricked in Baoding by someone, and he fell into the trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife. It is strange to say that Yu lord is also considered to be a top scholar. He has been in the ups and downs of his career for many years, and he is one of the top. The little soldier of a hundred households has made money, and he is also trying to figure it out after returning to Beijing, but this matter has no face at all, so he can only suffer a dumb loss."

"A military man of a hundred families." Mou Bin opened his eyes, the dignified imperial envoy could only find fault with others, and when he was hacked by others, he paid attention to this matter: "Tell me."

"My lord, the villain has found out clearly. This man's surname is Hu Mingshun. When he was young, he was a slut in Baoding City. He was too poor to survive. He just broke his face and married the daughter of an officer from a hundred families. He joined the army. He took over his father-in-law's military position. After becoming an officer, he even opened a warehouse to do business, and set up a school for his own children to study. Because he was so outstanding, he was tabooed by his colleagues. This time, Mr. Yu went to Baoding, and his colleagues Let's unite as one, to find fault and take him down with the hand of the imperial envoy, and then, like this..."

That Jin Yiwei stayed by Commander Mou's side all the year round, so he was naturally a person who talked freely, and in just a moment, he talked about the matter vividly from the beginning to the end.

When Hu Baihu and Song Tong clashed in the Qianhu Hall, Mou Bin suddenly straightened up from Hu's bed, appearing very focused.

After his subordinates finished speaking, Mou Bin suddenly asked casually: "Is there still a shortage of one hundred households in the Jinyiwei Thousand Households Office in Baoding?"

That Jin Yiwei immediately understood: "The villain will send the official certificate and waist badge over."

Mu Bin lay down on Hu's bed again, waved his hand to his subordinates, and signaled him to go down and do something.

After the man left, Mou Bin nodded, but remembered the name Hu Shun in his heart.

This person was originally from a good family, but he was determined to join the army.When he was in the army, he also dared to do business for profit. He was a decisive person.

Of course, this alone is not in the eyes of Commander Tamou.

Hu Baihu's ability to fight back in a desperate situation, not hesitate to injure himself, and manipulate a dignified imperial envoy, this ability is indeed amazing.

Now that Jin Yiwei is in short supply, talents are rare, so it might as well keep this Hu man in his bag and put him in Baoding for training.

After observing for the past few years, if you are really talented, you can make great use of it.

If it's really useless, don't worry about it yourself.

Mr. Mou has a lot of things going on every day, and if Hu Baihu doesn't have any outstanding performance, it won't take long, at most half a year, he will be completely forgotten by him.

In fact, things in the world are like this. A big person seems to say something casually, but for the people at the bottom, it is a huge opportunity, and it depends on whether you can grasp it.

Grasp it, it is another kind of life.

If you can't grasp it, it will be like this for the rest of your life.

Hu Baihu didn't know that he was facing such a huge opportunity, and all of this was brought about by his son-in-law Su Mu.

Of course, he and Su Mu have completely turned their faces, and this cheap old man can't do it.

Now he is sitting in front of his daughter's bed in a daze.

Hu Ying has not eaten or drank for three days, because three days ago a matchmaker came to propose marriage for Su Ruisheng, saying that she would take her as a concubine, and offered a bride price of 200 taels.

But now the Hu family has a hurdle they can't get over.
