Chapter 110

In the afternoon, Zhao Xing received the will of Chongzhen to receive Zhao Xing thank him. This was not Zhao Xing's special favor. All newly appointed officials were treated like this. It was considered that the emperor summoned students. When he went in, it was just a routine test of his knowledge and his ideas for being an official, and then he taught him. There was nothing wrong with the emperor letting you go out. At this time, you are the real emperor's disciple and can take office immediately.

Ceremonies like this are all in Jiying Hall, which is the platform to call each other that everyone talks about.

Zhao Xing put on the python robe awarded by the emperor and tied it with jade and brought it into the palace.

Python robe is a kind of garment given by the emperor. You must wear a jade belt when wearing a garment. Python robe is similar to the dragon robe worn by the emperor. It is not included in the official uniforms, but is given to the garment given by eunuchs, prime ministers and ministers in the Ming Dynasty. Obtaining such garments is considered to be a great honor.

As the little eunuch rushed to Jiying Hall, he met the pale and tired Chongzhen.

Chongzhen's routine inquiry: "I am promoted to the Northern Fufu Department. I should know that this position is the foundation of the country and the people. After taking office, what should I do?"

Zhao Xing also answered routinely: "Faith his duty, fear and fear."

"Since you know that you are responsible, you should worry about the country and the people."

"Respect the sacred order and perform the duties."

Speaking of this, the emperor then asked the eunuch to hand over the promiscuous official plate. Zhao Xing kowtowed and thanked him, and then said goodbye to take office. The procedure was over.

The lawsuit is a letter of appointment, and the official disc is an ID card, which says the official's origin, height, appearance, and any special marks on his face. It is precisely because of this thing that the real official will not have taken office, and there will be no impersonation by others like "Let the Bullets Fly".

But Zhao Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, did not hear the emperor's last sentence: "Remember today's words and live up to the emperor's orders." No eunuch came over and handed him the official plate to him.

The hall was silent for a long time, and then the sound of boots appeared in front of Zhao Xing's eyes, but the bright yellow boots and robe corners were shrouded. Zhao Xing was shocked, and Chongzhen walked in front of him in person.

He raised his head and saw a deep heavy feeling on Chongzhen's gray face.

"My dear, do you know why I want to promote you to the Northern Town Fushi?"

Zhao Xing was embarrassed. Of course I know what you suddenly put me in this position, but I can't say it. As for other purposes, ask me, who will I ask. Your own official, will you give it to whom you like?

Holding Zhao Xing's official disc, Chongzhen said with a gloomy expression: "The White Lotus Sect has always been banned by the court, but it has been banned from the imperial capital. Not only is it powerful, it has also raised more than 300 dead soldiers. The rebellion has made Taoist the target of the imperial palace, which shows how dangerous the world is. It can also be seen that the Five City Military and Horses and Shuntian Prefectures are so incompetent, and how corrupt the Jinyiwei is."

This was not ruthless, but it made the ministers who were waiting in the hall to continue discussing the matter ashamed and speechless.

Yes, rebellion was all under the emperor's nose, and he was preparing to attack the palace, but no one noticed it. This was indeed a dereliction of duty by each department. If Zhao Xing had not accidentally destroyed the White Lotus Sect's power in the capital, everyone now would probably have died thoroughly.

Such an ending is scary when you think about it.

"As a remnant of the eunuch party, Lai Zongdao's rebels, colluding with the White Lotus Sect, is even more terrifying. They can become elbows at any time, which is even more shocking."

This was also a shocking case. No one expected that the minister of the Ministry of Revenue would have such ambition. This really made Chongzhen's already suspicious personality even more suspicious. He really didn't know who he could trust in this world. Can he really sleep peacefully?

Fortunately, Zhao Xing was born and solved, at least on the surface, and under the leadership of Zhao Xing, he launched a vigorous campaign to eliminate the influence of the remnants of the White Lotus Sect. With the enthusiastic participation of the Donglin Party, the eunuch party carried out a major purging of the case. It was true or false, and it finally gave everyone a sigh of relief. But in general, Zhao Xing made great contributions and could not refute it.

"So I think day and night, and hand over the Northern Punishment Office to a loyal and brave man like my beloved, and I hope that my beloved will not let my high hopes down."

In love, Chongzhen was really scared, and there was really no trustworthy person. He could only choose to look at Zhao Xing who was okay. In fact, Chongzhen’s biggest consideration was that Zhao Xing had no background or faction behind him. As for the relationship between Zhao Xing and the British Duke, Chongzhen believed that British Duke Zhang Weixian was also a loyal hero of the royal family and had no big relationship.

Zhao Xing kowtowed again: "I am so trusted by the emperor, but I am just a trance."

"The important dear minister of the Northern Town Fushi should know."

"I know, I know."

"In order to allow you to concentrate on your work, I decided to restore the Hongwu Ancestor System."

Hearing this, the palace was in a state of uproar.

You should know that when the Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Beizhenfusi, which was the case designated by the emperor. He also had the imperial prison and could arrest, interrogate, execute, and execute it on his own without going through ordinary judicial institutions. He was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Jinyiwei, but was directly responsible to the emperor. There was a saying that "One belongs to the Tiqi, and the soul is flew with fire, and the poison is hard to describe. If he was sent to the court, it would be a joy in heaven. At that time, the Beizhenfusi was powerful and unruly, and the city was in chaos and the city was in danger."

Chongzhen said this, which was equivalent to revoking the Jinyiwei from agreeing with Donglin's opinion, and suddenly turning to strengthening the Jinyiwei, at least strengthening the rights of the Beizhen Fushi.

This is consistent with his personality again - from one extreme to another.

Luo Yangxing was shocked at the time. He directly gave priority to the Beizhen Fushishi above the Jinyiwei. Why did he be so careful and let Zhao Xing jump to his head?

The officials in Donglin were even more frightened. This was a life-threatening order. At that time, everyone took a step forward together and had to give firm opposition.

But Chongzhen raised his hand: "You are so worried, please be careful, and let me decide."

Everyone could only stand firm and wait until Chongzhen finished speaking before attacking.

Chongzhen said slowly: "Your dear, do you know the harm of the Beizhenfusi? How should you avoid it?"

Zhao Xing looked up again and looked at Chongzhen's eyes. He saw distrust and worry in Chongzhen's eyes, and from the eagerness of all officials, he saw a strong determination to fight to the death. Among them was his nominal boss, Luo Yangling, and even more, the British Duke Zhang Weixian.

Zhao Xing understood that the lonely minister was decided. The Jinyiwei National Security Department could not be withdrawn. This was his own persistence and efforts, and he finally achieved this goal with practical actions.

But he must never turn the national security department into the KGB or into a monster that eats people and does not spit bones. This is what he insisted on.

His first impression of Chongzhen's extreme behavior of releasing monsters was that he opposed it. It was absolutely necessary to keep the power in a cage.

He was ready to protect this national security department for thousands of years, and did not let him become a beast, so he decided to start with himself. So he kowtowed and said firmly: "I know the role of the Beizhenfusi, but I know the harm of the Beizhenfusi. For this reason, I ask Taizu to follow the example of "burning all the torture instruments, and to use evidence first, and the three courts will be tried together, so it is not in vain or indulged." He also asked the emperor to cast iron plates and stand them in the lobby of the Beizhenfusi, which is the rule of eternal life."

As Zhao Xing said, the frozen and suppressed air in the hall loosened a little. The ministers in the hall looked at Zhao Xing a little more relaxed.

Luo Yangxing hesitated, and Zhang Weixian and other nobles looked at each other and retreated directly.

After seeing Zhao Xing for a long time, Chongzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was very satisfied with Zhao Xing's approach that was equivalent to self-binding. Then he bent down and handed him over the prosecutor and official disc to him: "This is the reason why I chose my beloved to do this position. Be brave to take responsibility without being greedy for power and abuse of power. Do it well."
