Chapter 1 Entering Hengshan on a Rainy Night
At that time, it was the 16th year of Wanli. The two Zhangge, Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Siwei mentioned in folk sayings, "Ask big things about big things, and look for small things about small things". Both Zhang Ge, Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Siwei had passed away. The Ming Dynasty entered the era of the prime minister Shen Shixing.
During this year, Nao Haci married Amin Gege, the daughter of Hada's Bele Huergan, and began his pace of unifying the five Jurchens of Jianzhou; Japanese general Ashikaga Yoshiaki became a monk and announced that the Muromachi shogun era was officially demise; the Spaniards, who regarded themselves as the master of the earth, were mobilizing their invincible fleet to launch a war against England; the Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang, who had been in charge of Ji Liao for many years, and did not dare to invade Tumen Khan, finally completed his life journey and passed away in poverty and illness.
This year, the Ming Dynasty's treasury still had two million taels of silver in its treasury, and the treasury still had nearly ten million taels of silver. It would not have been a matter of rewarding that the generals who were responsible for the kings and the 8,000 soldiers were five cents each. Therefore, the country was stable and the world was stable. Even if there were one or two clowns, it would be difficult to shake the foundation of the country.
In the palace, Concubine Zheng was favored by the princess, and her relatives were loved by her family. The family was poor and they had a deep friendship with each other. After Concubine Zheng was favored, not only did her father and brothers reach the top, but even several clan members were also highly rewarded by the emperor. For example, this young son, Zheng Guobao, was originally the son of Zheng Chengxian's eldest brother Zheng Chengzhang, but because his father died early, he had been living with his cousin and had a good relationship with his younger brothers and sisters since he was young. Now, relying on his cousin's relationship, he is in charge of the commander of the Jinyiwei and the governor of the Northern Town Fushi.
Needless to say, the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty was high and high, but this institution was very complicated. It was not only a so-called intelligence agency (it was not the case) but also a nursing home. A large number of noble children held positions in the Jinyiwei, not working, but only receiving salary, which is the so-called place where the emperor wanted to reward him. In other words, what should he do? Yin Yizi Jinyi, this is not to let your son really be a Tiqi, but to give him a place to pay and set standards. I remember that when Jiajing came to the capital from the Zhongxiang Palace, he sat in the Golden Palace, and he signed a group of old people in the secret residence, whether they were gardeners or painters or guards, to follow him. It was probably because the Jinyiwei was the emperor's personal army and had no fixed personnel, so he could do anything.
As for who is the powerful Jinyi, it depends on whether there is a certain matter or a certain matter. If there is no such suffix, then Jinyi's identity is just a food coupon. With those words, it is a key person who can influence the life and death of a person. In particular, the commander in the Jinyi Guard is certainly the highest commander, but the north and south Pacification Department each has a large seal, which can pass the commander and report directly to the emperor. It is obvious that the power is great without asking about it.
In the north and south Fushi, the Nanzhen Fushi belong to the gendarmerie organization, that is, the Jinyiwei who manages the Jinyiwei. If there are illegal Jinyi, the Nanzhen Fushi will be sent to arrest and punish them. At the same time, the Nanzhen Fushi is also responsible for the manufacturing of military weapons, the preparation of armor, horse factories, fields, and elephant training. The Beizhen Fushi is responsible for investigating treacherous and arresting illegal things.
Therefore, Zheng Guobao took this heavy responsibility at a young age, which inevitably caused a strong backlash from all officials. In particular, many civil officials remembered that when Chenghua was reigned, he favored Concubine Wan, so he let her useless brother Wan Tong as the commander of the Jinyiwei, which made a mess. Although Concubine Zheng is not as domineering as Concubine Wan, he is not far away. If her family members are generally in high positions, wouldn’t it be even more difficult to cure in the future?
Therefore, the memorial impeachment of Zheng Guobao was passed into the cabinet like snow, almost crushing the case of Tongzhengsi. The Emperor Zhu Yijun of Wanli laughed loudly in the Hougong, and he couldn't help but praise the little Guanyin Concubine Zheng's skillful methods. This transfer of flowers and trees diverted the court officials' attention, making them only stare at their elder brother-in-law, and ignored that Concubine Zheng's son Zhu Changxun could finally be purified for a few days, and carefully planned how to abolish his eldest son Zhu Changluo and make Chang Xun the crown prince.
As for the party involved in the storm, Zheng Guobao could only be sent to Nanjing to work first to avoid the limelight, so as not to be blocked and beaten up if he met a group of radical literati and was blocked and beaten. After all, the Ming Dynasty was an era when civil officials were more keen on fighting than military generals. Even the commander of the Jinyiwei was beaten to death by civil servants in the Golden Palace by civil servants. To be honest, it was not very safe.
When the boat sailed south from Datong Bridge, Zheng Guobao was surrounded by twenty carefully selected brocade clothes and muttered in a low voice towards the palace: "Cousin, thank you." He shouted in his heart: "Sister Jing, I'm here to find you!"
After he arrived in Nanjing, he lived with the nobles led by Duke of Wei for a few days, then took a boat south and headed straight for Hengshan County. Who would have to catch the heavy rain, so he had to go to this teahouse to avoid it first.
Lin Pingzhi heard that this handsome young man who was about the same age as him was the uncle of the current dynasty, and his mind was secretly changed: My father and mother were captured by the evil thieves in Qingcheng. With my martial arts, I would never be able to save them from danger, let alone seek revenge from the evil people of Qingcheng Sect. Since this person is the uncle, it is better to ask him for help. As long as he is willing to take action, no matter how strong the Qingcheng Sect is, he will never dare to resist the royal relatives.
Thinking of this, he suddenly knelt down and said, "Little Min, Lin Pingzhi, is so injustice. I hope my uncle will make the decision for me!"
When Sun Dayong, a thousand-household household of Jinyi, saw Lin Pingzhi kneeling on the ground and shouting for injustice, he felt as if he was slapped on the face. The uncle of the country said that he was right. I was really going back to this job. He was originally a hereditary Jinyi, a job he passed down from generation to generation. Now, those who can earn this bowl of rice, in addition to the kindness of the meritorious ministers and children, mainly have three ways of substitutes, all-in-one, and all-in-one.
The substitute is a hereditary military household like Sun Dayong. His son inherited his father's business. However, his father has a hundred households and his son has hereditary households, but he may not be able to hold a real master. He often has a title but no right. He may have high rank and low rank, such as having a deputy rank, a 100 household, and a real rank. Even if his father has a hundred households, his son has to start from the small flag and the general flag.
Qianchong originally refers to the government's choice of good families among the private households to enter the Jinyiwei. However, since the Jiajing of Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty, it is mainly because ministers recommend people who have made meritorious recommendations. For example, what should I do if the official hat is not enough after a big battle? Just go to the Jinyiwei, and at least you have a salary, which is better than actually giving in to the Ministry of War and other real-time teaching. In this case, it basically depends on the face of the recommended official, and the credits of the recommended person themselves, and the level is determined based on this. But generally speaking, the titles given by this procedure will not exceed 100 households.
To be recruited is to be recruited among the people who voluntarily become Jinyiwei, similar to the recruitment of civil servants from later generations. Those who are recruited from the grassroots level are all started at the grassroots level, which is much more difficult than the first two methods. Usually, they start from the Lishi and Junyu, which is the so-called temporary workers.
Sun Dayong, the ancestral brocade erotic clothes, had the same way as the ancestral old Chinese medicine doctors, who had the means of making life worse than death. Although it is not the era when the Tiqi came out and captured loyal and kind, the three words "Elemental Uniform Guard" can stop children from crying at night. Generally, serious people see the Jinyiwei hide, so why did they come out to block the sedan chair and shout for justice? Could it be that my old Sun looks so good that he makes me hunchback and don't know how to write the word "Death"?
Sun Da lit the spring with his hand, and the sound of "Canglang" was heard. The shiny geese Ling's embroidered spring knife was unsheathed half a foot. Just after the order from the uncle, he took the ignorant hunch down and pulled it outside and chopped it out!
