I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 487 Five Secret Orders
In today's Daming, whether it is the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dongchang, Jinyiwei, Dali Temple, or the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there is a possibility of being bribed. If they are really asked to investigate this matter, maybe they will find something wrong.

Only the judicial yamen, which has just been established, has not yet formed wings, and has not been eroded by the official circles of the court, is a truly pure place.

Yu Jie'an is the most famous and famous official Yu Qian in the history of later generations. It would be a waste of talent to leave such a great god unused.

Moreover, Yu Qian is loyal to the emperor and loves the people, he is honest and upright, and his wisdom and strategies are all top-notch. The incident this time is very complicated.

It is impossible for someone who is not a person of great ability and wisdom to find out the real mastermind behind this huge quagmire.

In fact, Li Tian can probably guess who is behind the scenes.

It is nothing more than the nobles who were inspected by the guards and harmed their own interests, and the officials and gentry who levied commercial taxes and opened exchanges and suffered huge losses.

These two groups of people represent the top ruling group in Ming Dynasty.

Although Li Tian used various methods to temporarily suppress their rebound, the loss has already been caused. If they don't want to suffer forever in the future, they will definitely find ways to fight back.

Originally, Li Tian thought that they would use commercial means to fight against him.

But I never thought that the exchange's move was too ruthless.

Relying on the financial power of the Royal Bank and several big firms in the capital, Li Tian almost monopolized the supply of all goods in the capital. After being pinched by someone, they have no ability to fight back at all.

This way couldn't work out, so they began to think of ways to attack Li Tian from the officialdom.

And it was a big move, targeting the two cabinet ministers and a wave of officials recently promoted by Li Tianxin.

This is basically preparing to wipe out all the elites under Li Tian's hands.

It is absolutely impossible for a person who can make such a big deal to be a cat or a dog, nor is it possible for a few people to manipulate it behind the scenes.

It is very likely that it is the result of a large group of people's brainstorming and secret planning.

They used Yang Dao's private opening of the tea-horse trade fair as a breakthrough, but they knew the inside story and dared to speak out directly.

The only ones who are not afraid of offending the chief minister of the dynasty are Meng Xianying and others. From this, it can be inferred that the Meng family and the Wang family must be participants in it.

But Li Tian also knew that it was impossible for the Wang family and the Meng family to mobilize such an adult network of resources in the officialdom, so there were people behind them.

How to find out this group of people with a minimum of wastage without startling the snake is a very test of one's ability.

Perhaps only a capable minister like Yu Qian can handle this task.

All the officials above the court, when they heard that Li Tian had thrown such a heavy responsibility to an unknown supervisory censor, some were shocked, while others gloated.

The expressions vary, which means that there are many people in the court secretly participating in it at this time.

Although Li Tian noticed that the expressions of the people were different, he had no evidence in his hand, so he had to keep those people who behaved abnormally in mind, and did not react in any special way.

Seeing that no one objected, and no one spoke up, Jiang Bao announced his withdrawal from the court after he stood up.

On the surface, it seems that such an earth-shattering event has calmed down, but in fact, the dark tide has just begun.

After Li Tian returned to the imperial study, he wrote five secret decrees in a row, and ordered Jiang Bao, Wang Fu and others in the capital to deliver the decrees in person to ensure that the contents of the secret decrees would not be leaked.

Outside the capital, Ming's confidants passed on the decree secretly.

Two of the secret decrees were passed on to Zhu Rong and Wu Kezhong, asking them to prepare their troops immediately and be ready to deal with the invasion of foreign enemies at any time.

Nine Sides is Ming's last barrier against foreign enemies, although according to Yang Dao's information, the combined forces of Oala and Tatars will not invade until at least next year.

But after all, the imperial court will have a big shock this time, and he is not sure whether they will launch an invasion in advance because of this. Just in case, Li Tian still passed a secret decree to the two of them.

By the way, the secret decree brought several 10 taels of military expenses to each of the two people, which has temporarily stabilized the morale of the frontier army.

Of course, the military expenditure is still verbal at present, and the delivery date is a few months away.

According to Li Tian's estimate, no matter how procrastinated this matter is, it will eventually be resolved in a month or two. As long as the frontier army can be delayed until then, all problems will be solved.

Another secret decree from outside Beijing was delivered to Li Qing, Minister of the Ministry of War, who was investigating the guards in Beizhili.

Li Tian ordered him to complete the investigation of things in Beizhili within half a month, and then hurried to Nanjing.

The reason why he did this was that Li Tian had a premonition that behind this incident, the secret support of those nobles in Nanjing must be indispensable.

At this time, the nobles of Nanjing and Ma Dazhong were inextricably fighting each other, if Li Qing was to go ahead and get involved again.

Maybe it will completely disrupt the rhythm of those behind the scenes in Nanjing, and it will give enough time for the investigation in the capital.

Of the two secret decrees in the capital, one was passed on to Yu Qian, and Li Tian gave him great operational privileges in the secret decree.

Whether it is the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, anyone who can be useful to him in investigating the case, he can dispatch them all.

This kind of right is much more awesome than the governor who bestows Shangfang with a sword and has the right to kill first and then play.

Suddenly bringing him up to this level, Li Tian was also a little worried about whether Yu Qian, who was still very young at this time, could handle it. For this reason, Li Tian deliberately comforted him in the secret decree.
Moreover, in order to ensure his personal safety, he also sent a small team of Ouchi guards to protect him.

Such a heavy responsibility, coupled with Li Tian's direct attention, directly made Yu Qian, who was originally an uneducated person, become the most popular figure in the entire capital overnight.

Even in the streets and alleys, there were people talking about how lucky Chengzhiro, the sixth rank of the judicial yamen, was to go straight to Tianting, and to be so highly valued by His Majesty.

If she really made some achievements this time, I'm afraid her achievements will be limitless in the future. For a while, many people rushed to get close to him, so that Yu Qian couldn't even find a place to hide quietly.

The last secret decree was passed on to Zheng He.

Li Tian's trust in Zheng He was higher than that of his own son, and he didn't tell him what was there or what wasn't.

Tell him directly that the capital may not be very peaceful recently, so he must organize his troops and be ready to deal with all kinds of emergencies at any time.

After the five secret decrees were issued, it was already noon.

But at this moment of sudden change, Li Tian didn't meet anyone, and went out of the palace directly.
