Chapter 1003 South Xincang
It is actually quite stressful to crack this case within seven days. You should know that this is the Forbidden City and has a large population.
Although the Jinyiwei has outstanding abilities and Shuntian Mansion is not a vegetarian. However, it is not easy to investigate and deal with such a human trafficking case in the capital.
First of all, Zhu Cixuan and the others were already alerting the snake. Those Japanese knew that the matter was exposed and would inevitably hide quietly. In such a large capital, the pressure to capture these Japanese people is imagined.
In ancient times, when there was no surveillance and no advanced technology, those who wanted to find a needle in a haystack caught a prisoner unless the prisoner showed up on his own initiative. Otherwise, if these Japanese people were huddled in a corner of the capital, it would be difficult to find a god.
Moreover, some of these Japanese people are familiar with the Central Plains language. If they pretend to be Han people, it will be even more difficult to detect.
Qin Maosheng and Kang Hongming were scolded by Zhu Cilang. I don’t look at the process and only need the result. Be sure to arrest these Japanese people, and the time should be fast.
Unlike the diligent Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Cilang was actually relatively relaxed.
Chongzhen’s biggest mistake was to do everything by himself, but he didn’t know that the more he was like this, the more inefficient it would be. A qualified emperor could not solve it by diligent work day and night, but to learn to know people and make good use of it.
Chongzhen is far inferior to Zhu Cilang. It is understandable that Emperor Chongzhen is not very kind, after all, his ministers are not very reliable, and Emperor Chongzhen has already lost confidence in his ministers.
Suspicion and suspicion are the personality that Emperor Chongzhen cannot change. He doesn’t know what it means to doubt people and not to doubt people.
We always put a large part of the blame for the fall of the Ming Dynasty on Chongzhen, which is actually biased. When Chongzhen took over, the Ming Dynasty was already a mess, and it was not changed by Chongzhen's ability alone.
Chongzhen was not suspicious at the beginning. For example, when he reused Yuan Chonghuan, Emperor Chongzhen also used people without doubt. Chongzhen gave whatever Yuan Chonghuan wanted.
Even when Yuan Chonghuan corrected the order to kill Mao Wenlong, Emperor Chongzhen issued an order to appease you, saying that you did the right thing.
However, Yuan Chonghuan's big mouth shouldn't say nonsense like "Putting Liao in five years"? When Emperor Chongzhen gathered the national strength of the Ming Dynasty and supported Yuan Chonghuan's plan to purge Liao in five years, he finally realized that he had been deceived.
Yuan Chonghuan bragged a big cowhide in front of the imperial court and vowed to "pacify Liao for five years". He never thought that Chongzhen was also in a hurry to seek medical treatment, but he believed it and trusted it too much.
As a result, when Chongzhen finally found out that it was just Yuan Chonghuan's bragging, he found that he had been deceived, and he no longer trusted his ministers. So much so that Chongzhen finally sighed that all civil officials could kill them.
Otherwise, the suspicious and suspicious personality was not born like this by Emperor Chongzhen. Instead, he was cheated by these unreliable ministers.
Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen became a diligent emperor. He had to do everything himself, and worked until late at night every day, and was an absolute workaholic.
However, is this useful? It is useless. What should be destroyed in the Ming Dynasty will eventually die.
An emperor has limited abilities. You have to do everything yourself, but you can't do anything well. Zhu Cilang is different. He doesn't like to do it yourself.
Zhu Cilang likes to know people and make good use of them. An emperor cannot handle everything himself. As long as he can use talents in this field, they will naturally do it for you.
It is easy to be such an emperor. Emperor Jiajing and Wanli of the Ming Dynasty were both masters in this field. Jiajing retreated behind the scenes and did not attend court, but knew all about major events in the court. Emperor Wanli even became a hand-off manager, with Zhang Juzheng assisting everything. Zhang Juzheng's series of reform measures allowed the Ming Dynasty to continue.
We cannot unilaterally evaluate a historical figure, and it is even more difficult to make a conclusion about controversial historical figures such as Zhang Juzheng and Yuan Chonghuan. However, many of Zhang Juzheng's reform measures did save the Ming Dynasty to a certain extent.
Zhu Cilang doesn't like to do everything by himself, so why do those who are ministers do? An emperor must learn to decentralize imperial power.
As long as you look at the result, you will find any minister who is not satisfied with the handling of the matter. Instead, just like my father, Emperor Chongzhen, you have to do everything yourself.
Emperor Chongzhen was so surprised by Zhu Cilang that when I was the emperor, things in the court were complicated. I always worked day and night, but I was still in a mess.
After you became emperor, you were free and relaxed every day. The government affairs in the court were orderly. How did you do these things?
Zhu Cilang only said four words to his father, which made Emperor Chongzhen silent. What Zhu Cilang said was the four words "know people and use them well".
At this time, Qin Maosheng, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and Kang Hongming, the prefect of Shuntian, felt increasingly sad. The emperor suppressed the case, making them breathless.
After solving the case within seven days, Qin Maosheng, who returned to the Northern Fushi Department, hurriedly summoned all the Jinyiwei in the capital and began a large-scale search of the capital.
Kang Hongming, the prefect of Shuntian, was not idle either. The capital posted a notice to capture several wandering Japanese in the capital. Those who found clues would be rewarded with great rewards.
However, whether it was the Jinyiwei or Shuntian Mansion, they had nothing in the capital for three consecutive days. It seemed that these Japanese people had already left a way out for themselves, and they were in great difficulty to capture them.
As the seven-day deadline required by the emperor was getting closer, Qin Maosheng and Kang Hongming were even more anxious like ants on a hot pan. The Jinyiwei almost came out of nowhere and used all the intelligence networks that could be used in the capital. Strangely, these Japanese people seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and no news appeared again.
Kang Hongming even asked the yamen servants to post notices everywhere. Once several suspects were found, they would be rewarded with 3,000 taels of silver.
The people in the capital were moved by this opportunity to get rich overnight. Soon, there were important clues.
In the capital, the people here discovered important clues. They found several strange-behaving people, hiding out at night in a remote residential house. Moreover, they rarely greeted the residents nearby. They acted mysteriously and mysteriously.
When Emperor Yongle moved the capital to the capital, due to the rapid development of the city and the demand for grain was increasing, but the grain output in the north was insufficient, so it was urgent to transport grain from the south to the north. In the ninth year of Yongle, 300,000 migrant workers were recruited to clear the rivers of the Yuan Dynasty and carry out grain transportation, so that the grain in the south of the Yangtze River could be transported to the north continuously. For this reason, many granaries, including the Nanxin Cang, were gradually built in Tongzhou and Beijing.
