Chapter 2661 The guizi scroll is launched, fierce
For the cabinet, the loss of the support of Long Banwei, the most effective intelligence agency, almost plunged them into darkness.
Although it can make up for it from the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and Shuntian Mansion, as well as the Bing Ma Si and Patrol Battalion of the Five Cities, the coverage of the Ministry of Punishment is too narrow, the side of Shun Tian Mansion is too low-end and not professional enough, and the Bing Ma Si and Patrol Battalion of the Five Cities are too narrow. It's complicated, and no one can fully grasp the people here, so the cabinet seems a little passive all of a sudden.
This is why Qi Yongtai is eager to promote the change of the cabinet so that Feng Ziying can come back as soon as possible.
There are almost no people in the court who can talk to Long Jinwei. Except for Feng Ziying, everyone else seems to respect Long Jinwei at a respectful distance.
On the other hand, not many officials in Long Jinwei and the court are familiar with it, including the Wucheng Bingma Division and the Patrol Battalion. It turns out that the officials are not very familiar with these insignificant law and order. How important is the department, how can it be so easy to get in touch with now suddenly?
In Qi Yongtai's view, as long as the new cabinet is finalized quickly and the new cabinet regains control of the court, Lu Song will understand that the general trend cannot be violated, and he will be attached to the cabinet again. At that time, he can gradually replace Long Jinwei's internal personnel , Regain a firm grasp of this institution that plays an important role at critical times.
Once it drags on, the half-hearted Lu Song finds that the cabinet's control over the entire court has declined. Maybe it was half-hearted, and the result will be completely to the other side.
The proposals of Qi Yongtai and others were quickly handed over to the palace. The General Secretary of the General Administration is now Sun Dingxiang who has returned from Nanjing. When entering the palace, you must find Xia Bingzhong, the palm print eunuch.
He has been in contact with Qi Yongtai and Xia Bingzhong a lot on behalf of Qi Yongtai, and they are quite familiar with each other, knowing where Xia Bingzhong is at this time.
But when Sun Dingxiang arrived at the Hall of Renzhi, he found no trace of Xia Bingzhong.
The little **** guarding the Hall of Renzhi saw Prime Minister Sun Ding coming, and hurriedly came to greet him.
"Where's Manager Xia?" Sun Dingxiang didn't care, Xia Bingzhong wasn't always in the Hall of Renzhi, the palace was so big, and Xia Bingzhong also had other chores, so it was inevitable that he would go to other places.
"I went out early in the morning, it seems that I went to the Renshou Palace." The little **** said respectfully, "It was said that the emperor wanted to make Concubine Ying a noble concubine, so Director Xia went there and hasn't come back yet. "
Sun Dingxiang was slightly surprised.
The unethical relationship between Emperor Wantong and Concubine Ying knew a lot about the old people in the court. Although Emperor Yuanxi had passed away and Emperor Yonglong was dying, just waiting for his last breath, not many people talked about it more than 20 years ago. It's an old story, but the fact that Emperor Wantong wanted Jinying Dowager to be the Emperor Dowager still made the cabinet and important ministers a little tired.
It's just that this is a royal family matter after all, and the court can't get involved too much. It doesn't seem to be a big deal to promote an old concubine as a noble concubine, so the court officials just pinched their noses and ignored it.
"I've been away for so long? Isn't it just to use a seal?" Sun Dingxiang felt a little ominous in his heart. He went early in the morning, and it was already past noon, and he hasn't come back yet?
The little **** murmured: "We also feel a little strange. The chief seldom goes there for so long. Even if there is a ceremony, he should be back after lunch, but now..."
Sun Dingxiang's heart tightened, and he looked around subconsciously, but saw nothing unusual.
Calm down, the three relatives are still guarding the door, Sun Dingxiang comforted himself, if the emperor wants to mess around in this palace, he just needs to seal the palace, he is a turtle in the urn, or a weak chicken, at this time he can't Not to mention the importance of Feng Ziying's firm grasp of the three relatives in his hands.
Sun Ding made up his mind, so the emperor would not act so recklessly, unless the Fifth Army Battalion moved first to control the palace ban, but now there is no movement from the Fifth Army Battalion, the emperor dare not act so recklessly.
But now the matter of using the seal can't be delayed, so I can only forcefully break into the Renshou Palace. Fortunately, I have to meet the emperor. At least the etiquette is to ask him for imperial approval. Well, anyway, I plan to prepare two copies of the ticket, give him one, and let Xia Bingzhong handle the rest.
"Let's go, go to Renshou Palace." Sun Dingxiang waved his hand, and the thirty standard-bearer guards he brought from the standard-bearer guard who was on duty today followed him to Renshou Palace.
When Sun Dingxiang entered Renshou Palace, he realized that something was wrong.
Xia Bingzhong did not see anyone, but there was a pool of blood on the ground.
But the few young eunuchs he brought were escorted aside with ashen faces, and there were actually a group of standard guards at the door.
Before Sun Dingxiang said anything, several soldiers of the standard-bearer guards had come directly and took Sun Dingxiang down. In a hurry, Sun Dingxiang shouted loudly to the standard-bearer guards behind him, but there was no response.
After Sun Dingxiang was taken down and **** and stuffed with a cloth ball in his mouth, Emperor Wantong who was sitting inside could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Going this far, there is no room for retreat.
The news from the cabinet has been passed in early, and now it is time for him to start.
Xia Bingzhong's threat lies in the fact that he holds the seal of the jade seal, and Xia Bingzhong is good at imitating the secret of handwriting.
Luring Xia Bingzhong here on the grounds that he wanted to confer the title of Concubine Ying on behalf of Concubine Ying, and killing him in one fell swoop is also the most important part of it.
He killed Xia Bingzhong, took away the seal of Yuxi Palace, and then directly issued a vote to the cabinet to exempt Qi Yongtai and Gu Bingqian, appointed Li Sancai as the chief assistant, Guan Yingzhen as the second assistant, Huang Ruliang, Tang Binyin, and Zhang Jingqiu as the group assistants, and the whole Among the cabinet ministers, there are scholars from the north, Jiangnan, and even Huguang, and Guan Yingzhen was promoted to the second assistant, which is not an unacceptable result for anyone.
Zhang Jin's face was gloomy, and his hands trembled slightly.
As the commander of the Banner Guard, it is undoubtedly difficult to take this step, but he formed the Banner Guard itself with the old subordinates of Long Jinwei as the team. When the old boss Lu Song changed direction, if he If you don't change course, there will be a pool of blood on the ground.
And just as Lu Song said, whether it is the Long Jinwei or the Shang Sanqin Army, they are the emperor's personal guards, and the Long Jinwei is the emperor's special right to kill first and then play. How could it be reduced to become a **** of the cabinet ministers?
Even being frightened by a group of censors from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, afraid of being impeached by the censor and thrown into prison?
Gu Cheng died, Lu Song saw the body, as for how he died, it doesn't matter whether he committed suicide or poisoned him.
But this proves that the emperor recognized and valued the power of Long Banwei under his control.
itself should be controlled by the emperor himself, but Emperor Wantong used Gu Cheng before, so he naturally couldn't compromise, but now that the barrier between the two has disappeared, everything is much easier.
Of course, Lu Song also knows that maybe this is the emperor's last resort to compromise, but it doesn't matter. Lu Song is confident that as long as the emperor uses him, he will feel that the more he uses him, the more comfortable he will be, and he will become inseparable from him even for a moment, and become mutual. Yes, what Lu Song wants is such a result.
"Very good, Lu Song, Zhang Jin, don't say anything for now, first block the palace ban, if the four guards and the warrior battalion find something suspicious and start to move out, you just need to firmly guard the gate of the palace ban, if you want to attack the palace, I'm still here, they're afraid There are also some fears, not daring to act recklessly,..."
Emperor Wan Tong finally stabilized his mind at this time, and he also needed to reassure people like Long Jinwei and Banner Guard.
"Xiao Ruxun and Ma Chengxun controlled the Beijing camp for me. There may be some changes in the Shenshu camp and the Shenji camp, but there are five military camps, and the Shenshu camp and the Shenji camp can't make waves. Huahui will keep an eye on the movement on the street for me. Besides, the Xuanfu army is in Huailai, and a part of Shanxi Town has already arrived in Sihaizhi. They can rush to the city within two days. If it is really necessary, I will let them Entering the city, so you don’t have to worry, I just want to use my favored chief and assistant cabinet ministers, Li Aiqing has already greeted the important ministers of the Seventh Ministry and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there will definitely be some objections, but that So what? Which one of the personnel adjustments will there be no disagreement? This is all normal."
Both Lu Song and Zhang Jin looked silent, but they both nodded, admitting that what Emperor Wantong said was true.
The adjustment of every cabinet minister and important minister will be full of turmoil. Even if Ye Fang and his two became official, they have experienced several games before. "Mixed in it, so it is also turbulent and cunning, fighting endlessly.
Emperor Wantong's attitude has been made clear. He hopes to restore the situation 30 years ago in Yuanxi. The cabinet ministers can only assist him in managing the country, not make decisions for him. Therefore, he needs the military to support him. However, there are not small forces in the military that tend to be on the side of civil servants.
In particular, Feng Ziying's influence in the army has risen sharply in recent years. He has great influence in the towns of Liaodong, Jizhen, Denglai, Dongjiang, Jiangbei, and Ganning. For military personnel adjustments, if Ma Chengxun hadn't been in charge of the Fifth Army Battalion and Xiao Ruxun had acted as Jiedushi, it can be said that Emperor Wantong would have no chance.
Lu Song and Zhang Jin also knew that it was fortunate that Feng Ziying was firmly dragged in Liaodong, and he was beyond the reach of the Beijing-China situation, otherwise they would not have been involved so deeply this time.
Seeing that Lu Song and Zhang Jin had obeyed his opinion, Emperor Wantong felt relieved and looked out the window: "At this time, my servant has already gone to Wenyuan Pavilion, and I also asked Xiao Ruxun to order the Shenshu Camp and the Shenji Camp Don't go out to camp, as long as today is over, and tomorrow's Dibao and "Today's News" are published, everything will be settled!"
