I'm sure of the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong!

Chapter 179 Beating the Jin Yiwei

Royal study.

"The humble minister Wu Wai pays homage to Your Majesty. Long live my emperor." Wu Wai bowed and saluted.

But today, Zhu Yijiong did not let him get up. Instead, he was busy reviewing the memorial. When he could no longer hold on, he asked for no reason: "It seems that nothing has happened in the past few months?"

Wu Wai's whole body was sore and numb, but he still managed to hold on and said, "It's indeed nothing."

Zhu Yijiong raised her head with deep eyes: "Is everything really okay?"

"Um...it should be fine?"

"Humph!"

"Your Majesty, calm down!" Wu Wai was so frightened that he knelt down on one knee, not even daring to raise his head.

The scene remained deadlocked for a few seconds before Zhu Yijiong said with a slightly gentle tone: "Get up! Go back to Haosheng and see if everything is okay. I will hand over the royal guard to you, but don't let me down!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wu Wai was sweating coldly, but he still supported Xie En to get up.

Seeing Zhu Yijiong starting to review the memorial again, it seemed that he had nothing more to say, so he bowed and exited the door.

After leaving the Imperial Study Room, Wu Wai's face gradually turned gloomy.

Of course, he was not angry with Zhu Yijiong. After all, in terms of status, although he was just the commander of the Jinyi Guards on the surface, he was actually a relative of the emperor.

My sister is a queen, and she is already pregnant with a dragon fetus. As long as she gives birth to a son, she will be the prince in the future.

In other words, Wu Wai could be a long way ahead of his old brothers who had revolted in the first place without even having to do anything.

Because of this relationship, Zhu Yijiong only beat him this time, but did not actually issue an order to punish him.

It's impossible not to beat him. If He Changyun hadn't come to Nanjing to see him this time, he might not even have noticed it.

The entire Ming Dynasty was so quiet that there was no sign of corruption in the officialdom.

This is abnormal in itself. It does not mean that there are no upright officials, but Fujian and Zhejiang have only been governed by the Ming Dynasty for half a year. The officials there have not been completely replaced, and half of them are still the old officials.

How could there be no corruption at all?

Wu Wai is not stupid either. He has been a commander of the Jinyi Guards for a long time, and he should have been trained by all the hard work. How can he not understand when Emperor Zhu mentions it like this.

He is angry now. Either he has been ignored by his subordinates, or his subordinates have slacked off.

It seems that after returning home, we need to clean up the inside of Jinyiwei first. It turns out that in order to quickly expand Jinyiwei's intelligence channels, Wu Wai was forced to recruit many people from different religions and professions.

Now we need to sort it out carefully, as well as those people in the officialdom...

At this moment, none of the serving officials in the entire Ming Dynasty officialdom noticed that a bloody storm was about to break out in the entire Jiangnan.

After all, Emperor Zhu was angry, and if Wu Wai wanted to make achievements and Jin Yiwei wanted to establish his authority, a major case must be initiated.

Cheng'en Temple.

Although the overall renovation of the temple has not yet begun, He Changyun has already moved in. The main reason is that there is no place for him to stay, so he can't ask others to stay in an inn, right?
He Changyun stayed here for two days, and he had a good time. The Ming court did not restrict his personal freedom. He wandered around and had fun almost all day long, enjoying the Nanjing style.

As for the money, Lin Dai Wang had money (from plundering and confiscating money), so he gave him a lot of funds.

However, on this day, He Changyun was rare and did not go out. Instead, he received a special guest.An uninvited guest who could allow Chengen Temple, the established guest house of Honglu Temple, to be let through and be solemnly received by He Changyun.

No one knew what He Changyun said to this uninvited guest. The two of them just stayed in the temple for less than half an hour and left.

On the fourth day, He Changyun finally received Emperor Zhu's approval and officially left Nanjing and returned to Guangdong.

He didn't bring anything or any reward, not even a letter of credence to return.

The day after He Changyun left Beijing, several military messengers sent by Yang Gong and Zheng Dingrui finally arrived in Nanjing. They did not dismount even after entering the city gate, causing a panic in the streets of Nanjing, which had regained its former popularity.

Many people were almost trampled by the horses and wanted to yell, but when they saw the knights running away wearing red clothes and armor, especially the command flags with the word "urgent" dangling on their backs, they could only feel resentful. Hold it back.

Almost non-stop, these military messengers went straight to the Nanjing Privy Council Yamen, then dismounted and handed over the military newspaper documents in their hands, and then collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily.

In order to achieve the fastest military communication between the front line and the rear, these military cavalrymen changed horses all the way without changing people, and even traveled day and night. By now they were exhausted.

Privy Councilor Zhu Chengxun tore open the envelope, took out the envelope and glanced at it briefly. He suddenly looked shocked, and then without hesitation, he told his entourage: "Prepare the sedan and enter the palace."

Within half an hour, the three big bosses from the Cabinet, Ordnance Bureau, and Privy Council gathered in the royal study room of the palace.

This time, not only the three great scholars Wang Li, Liang Wenxuan, and Lu Youlong came to the cabinet, but also the six ministers came. As for the Privy Council, in addition to Zhu Chengxun, the privy envoy and cabinet great scholar, there were also deputy ministers. As usual, only Old Man Li came from the Ordnance Bureau.

After a while, Emperor Zhu arrived late.

The ministers bowed and saluted, shouting long live the mountain.

Zhu Yijiong raised his empty hand and said, "Everyone, please get down."

With that said, with a wave of his hand, Zheng Hanqing, the secretary on duty at the side, quickly took out a military newspaper document and handed it over.

Cui Li, the original army secretary, has been sent to Taiwan to take over as Wang Yuan's prefect. This has now become the secretariat's custom.

As an organization that imitates the Military Aircraft Department, the officials here must be replaced from time to time. Otherwise, even if the secretary has no rank and no real power, he may have to sideline the emperor.

"Look at them all!"

Wang Li took the first step and took the military report document and quickly scanned it, his face gradually changed from seriousness to joy.

As it was circulated, all the other ministers looked happy. Only the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue had a look of joy and a little worry on his face. Old Man Li looked confused.

After the military reports were circulated in turn, Zhu Yijiong said: "What do you think my Ming Dynasty should do next?"

As the chief minister of the cabinet and the head of the civil service, Wang Li was naturally the first to speak: "Reporting to your majesty, I think that since the Ming Dynasty has completely occupied southern Anhui and is sitting on the defense line of the Yangtze River, we should immediately go south to attack Jiangxi and connect the entire south of the Yangtze River. one slice."

This was a plan that had been decided by the Privy Council and the Military Department a long time ago. Now Wang Li just brought up the old matter and explained the plan again.

After speaking and expressing his position, Wang Li decisively shut his mouth.

As for the rest, that's not what he, the first assistant, should care about.

Zhu Chengxun immediately stepped forward and, as the chief officer of the Privy Council, was in charge of all foreign military operations of the Ming Dynasty, including recruiting troops, logistics and equipment, and other important tasks.

It was natural for him to speak at this time.

　The protagonist cannot fight on three fronts now!It’s not that Guangdong doesn’t want to fight, it’s because it can’t handle the financial situation.
