The 160th chapter in power (2)

Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing stood respectfully outside the military aircraft department's official room. Although they stood there for a stick of incense, they did not dare to make the slightest sound.

They all knew in their hearts that the emperor's personal expedition to fight the invading Jianlu and his triumphant return to the court would definitely require some important matters to be dealt with. Even the Military Aircraft Department would have notes on what their factory guards had done.

When Emperor Chongzhen left Beijing for his own expedition, Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing were indeed given corresponding powers, but the pressure on them was also considerable.

After all, the documents given to them by Emperor Chongzhen listed in detail the errands to be done. Rights and obligations are equal, and it is impossible to be heavy on one and light on the other.

"Eunuch Cao, the emperor has summoned you."

While Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing were pondering, Wang Chengen walked out of the office, holding a fly whisk in his hand, with no hint of joy or sorrow in his expression.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Cao Huachun hurriedly adjusted the red python robe he was wearing. Under Luo Yangxing's gaze, he respectfully walked into the official room along with Wang Chengen.

Cao Huachun, who bowed his head and walked into the official room, saw that his emperor was reviewing memorials, and he hurriedly bowed his hands and said: "I pay my respects to the emperor~"

"Cao Banban is here."

Hearing Cao Huachun's voice, Emperor Chongzhen put down the memorial in his hand, picked up the tea cup at hand, and took a sip. Looking at Cao Huachun who maintained his posture, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"No gifts."

Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly and said: "While I was away from Beijing on my own expedition, Cao Banpan did a good job and there was no chaos in the inner court. I should reward him."

"Your Majesty is so complimentary."

Cao Huachun was overjoyed in his heart, but said: "It is my honor to be able to share the worries of the emperor. This time, the emperor personally led the expedition and defeated the invading Jianlu, which greatly increased the majesty of our emperor..."

"Okay, stop saying these flattery words."

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "I asked you to select a group of young eunuchs with clean family backgrounds in the inner court, as well as select eunuchs from among the people. How did things go?"

If you want to clean up the inner court in depth and uncover all the domestic thieves hidden deep in the inner court, you cannot do without a professional team. In addition, considering future planning, it is not enough to rely on just one Dongji office.

The more than a thousand eunuchs who were temporarily assigned to the Yongwei camp had experienced several battles, and only about 500 were left alive. These were all eunuchs worth using.

"According to the emperor's previous instructions, when the emperor left the capital for his own expedition, a total of 3,718 people were selected by the servants." Cao Huachun bowed his hands and said: "Right now, these people are temporarily stationed in Xiyuan.

, and the people from the Royal Horse Supervisor are responsible for training, and the roster is in the Si Li Supervisor, if..."

"Well, you did a good job on this errand."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "Tell me about the memorials that I have read. Although you have done a good job, there are still many problems in the twelve supervisors, four departments and eight bureaus of the inner court.

I also know that it is a bit difficult for you to completely clean up the inner court environment in such an environment.

You will go back to the Supervisor of Ceremonies later and transfer all the documents related to the Imperial Palace to the inner study hall. There are some things that need to be done."

"This slave takes the order."

Cao Huachun suppressed the horror in his heart and hurriedly answered with his hands raised. He didn't know what his emperor meant by these words, but his intuition told him that something big was probably going to happen in the inner court.

"By the way, why didn't I see the British prince when I returned to the court this time?" After beating Cao Huachun, Emperor Chongzhen frowned slightly.

"Back to your Majesty, Lord Ying is seriously ill and is currently recuperating at his residence."

Cao Huachun calmed down and replied hurriedly: "When the emperor left Beijing for his own expedition, the British minister was busy with business in Beijing and had errands assigned by the Military Aircraft Department, so..."

Is Zhang Weixian seriously ill?

That's right, Zhang Weixian died three years ago in Chongzhen. No wonder when I summoned him before, I always felt that Zhang Weixian was not in good spirits.

This time I personally went on the expedition, relying on the 'blank check' I had written earlier to stimulate Zhang Weixian and ask him to stay in the capital to help him share his worries. This was considered exhausting.

It seems that I have to take the time to take a look at Zhang Weixian. I still need to express my attitude.

It is estimated that Zhang Weixian will make it clear to his legitimate son Zhang Zhiji about the "blank check" he wrote. However, forget about the hereditary Duke. At most, there will be a hereditary earl. This can be considered as compensation to the British Duke lineage.

"Okay, I understand."

Emperor Chongzhen calmed down, looked at Cao Huachun and said, "Cao Banban, please step aside and do your errands first. Remember, don't say anything you shouldn't say."

"My slave understands."

There is no need to change the twelve supervisors, four departments and eight bureaus in the inner court. They are already very complete. However, if there is only one east factory, it will definitely not work.

After all the thieves in the inner court are cleared out, the Imperial Manor under the name of the Ming royal family must be integrated together, which also involves my future layout.

"Call Luo Yangxing in."

Emperor Chongzhen, who wanted to understand this, looked at Wang Chengen and said.

"Here."

Wang Chengen bowed slightly and responded, then quickly walked out of the official room. Being the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has many benefits.

At least under this imperial power, there is always a group of people who closely surround you.

Perhaps Emperor Chongzhen could not be sure who there were in the outer court, but among the factory guards, if he wanted to have a good future, he had no other good choice except sticking to his thick thighs.

"Luo Yangxing, how is Yuan Chonghuan doing in the imperial prison?" After seeing Luo Yangxing walk in, Emperor Chongzhen asked before he could salute.

Seeing this, Luo Yangxing hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, except for his mental state, everything else is fine. He was not tortured in the prison."

"Um."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "Be optimistic about Yuan Chonghuan and don't ask him to commit suicide. Besides, you did a good job during my personal expedition this time.

Let’s promote the commander of the Jinyi Guards to the title of Commander-in-Chief on the right, and allow the Luo family to choose ten children to serve as the vanguard of the government army.”

"I thank the Lord for your kindness."

The emotional Luo Yangxing immediately knelt down and said to Emperor Chongzhen.

Previously, he was just the Jinyiwei commanding the affairs and supervising the Jinyiwei. Now that the emperor has given him such a reward, he will be the real master of the Jinyiwei in the future.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me yet."

Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, looked at Luo Yangxing and said: "I told you before that the Jin Yiwei should be the sharp sword of the country, but the current Jin Yiwei obviously cannot meet my expectations.

In a few days, I will transfer a group of people to serve at Nanzhen Fusi. The discipline and law of this Jinyiwei cannot be in name only.
