Chapter 585 Support the puppet!(1/2)
After finishing his lunch break, Ye Mingsheng returned to his study and started his afternoon work. Under Ye Mingsheng's hard work in the past few months, Youyan, who had just experienced the war, was also in a state of being exhausted from the beginning.
, began to gradually regain its vitality······················
After the first round of purges of Youyan officials, although the current corruption situation in Youyan officialdom still exists, the situation has been greatly improved compared to the Zhao Fuqu era. Ye Mingsheng's will can also be conveyed to the grassroots, and some
Money for disaster relief can also be quickly delivered to the hands of the victims.
In order to reduce his own workload so that he would not be busy with his feet hitting the back of his head, Ye Mingsheng also delegated a lot of power to the Chief Secretary, and only handled some of the most important matters himself.
Although Cui Shao and Gu Zhongshi have their own thoughts, as long as they can correct their thoughts and feel that Ye Mingsheng's eyes are always monitoring them from behind, then these two veteran bureaucrats who have been in politics for decades will
In terms of ability, I can't say anything about it. All things are handled in an all-round way, making it impossible to find fault.
"Sir, this is the memorial sent by the General Staff yesterday. At present, the trial of the last batch of 15,000 Yan troops has been completed. Please take a look at the specific situation!" Ye, who has just been promoted to the director of the Attendant Department.
Cheng, placed a document in front of Ye Mingsheng.
Looking at the contents of the memorial, Ye Mingsheng quickly browsed it. Several months had passed since the last battle with the Yan army, but the affairs of the staff department were even busier than during the war. On the one hand, they had to coordinate and deal with it,
Fengwu Army's military expansion and reorganization work, on the other hand, based on Fengwu Army's handling of surrendered soldiers, the General Staff also organized a large number of military officers to establish temporary military courts to trial the surrendered soldiers of Yan Army in batches...
············
Because the years of war have caused a labor shortage in Youyan, this time Ye Mingsheng also gave instructions to the General Staff to relax the tone of the trial appropriately.
As long as it is not a CCB woman, and heinous crimes such as killing good people and taking meritorious service, they can be given lighter sentences in order to simplify the trial process and allow these working-age laborers to return to society more quickly to engage in labor production and make due contributions to society and tax revenue.
.
Looking at the trial results of 3,750 people who were subjected to forced labor reform, 821 people who were beheaded, 69 people who had their homes confiscated and their clans exterminated, and 21 people of the Yi tribe recorded in the memorial, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but feel slightly.
Frowning, a trace of doubt emerged in his heart.
Because he had instructed the General Staff to appropriately open up the door to trial, the General Staff had previously criticized and educated some of the pawns who had committed misdemeanors such as stealing a chicken and not paying for a bun.
Therefore, the results of the previous batches of trials were, at most, more than 300 people detained through labor reform, dozens of people beheaded, and a few people confiscated their homes and exterminated their clans. There is almost no situation like the situation of the Yi tribe.
And why are there so many people this time? This has almost increased ten times!
Although he felt a little surprised, Ye Mingsheng knew that he had given instructions to the General Staff, but the General Staff still convicted these thousands of people. Naturally, the General Staff had their reasons for doing so, so he pondered for a while, and Ye Mingsheng said to
Ye Cheng asked:
"Who are these descendants?"
Regarding Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Ye Cheng answered directly without hesitation:
"Sir, according to your instructions, in order to complete the trial faster and allow more soldiers to engage in labor production, the General Staff Department placed the Zhao family soldiers with the most serious cases in the last batch for processing.
················”
"Many of these Zhao family soldiers are related to the Zhao family. Because Zhao Fuqu became enlightened alone, they all followed the chickens and dogs to heaven. In addition, Zhao Fuqu usually trusted them very much, so these people relied on Zhao Fuqu to support them.
, are usually very arrogant and have committed many evil deeds, and the people are fearful and angry towards them!"
"In addition to the last batch of 15,000 surrendered soldiers, about 5,000 of them were captured by our army in Jinzhong. Many of these people were captured by our army in previous battles.
He was later released, but then went back to Jinzhong to seek refuge with Zhao Jianan. He was determined to follow the Zhao family, so the General Staff took this into consideration and tried him severely!"
After hearing this explanation, Ye Mingsheng had no doubts in his heart. After thinking for a while, Ye Mingsheng gave the final judgment. Those who were reformed through labor and beheaded maintained the final judgment unchanged. As for the confiscation of their homes and genocide, and the barbarians
For those belonging to the three tribes, the persons involved were executed, and the relatives and others implicated were sent to the Posuo Prefecture to guard the border.
Seeing Ye Mingsheng's handling results, Ye Cheng sincerely praised:
"Your Majesty is really kind-hearted. These people will definitely be grateful for your kindness!"
Regarding Ye Cheng's flattery, Ye Mingsheng smiled and waved his hand and said:
"Nothing, I just remembered the memorandum sent from Posuo Mansion a few days ago saying that there is a lack of manpower to build a dam... By the way, about Posuo Mansion
Has the Second Manufacturing Bureau sent someone to investigate the situation of kerosene over there?"
"My lord, because of your special explanation before, as soon as the situation of ground kerosene was discovered in Posuo Mansion, Director Su of the Second Manufacturing Bureau immediately sent a special person to investigate the situation. We have seven days to go now, and it will probably take another
They will be back in a month or two!" Ye Cheng introduced:
Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly and said:
"Tell Su Junjie that this ground fire oil is a first-class good thing and ask him to study it carefully for me!"
"yes!"
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng had dealt with these situations, Ye Cheng reminded him again:
"Sir, you will also listen to Director Wang Xuecheng's work report this afternoon. He is waiting outside the study now!"
Ye Mingsheng frowned slightly when he heard this. Seeing this, Ye Cheng immediately took the order and exited the room. After a while, Wang Xuecheng, deputy director of the Coordination Office, walked into Ye Mingsheng's study.
"The humble Wang Xuecheng has met the Governor!" Wang Xuecheng saluted very respectfully:
Ye Mingsheng raised his hand slightly as a courtesy, and then said slowly;
"How did you do what you were asked to do?"
Under Ye Mingsheng's gaze, Wang Xuecheng said directly without hesitation:
"The five jounin who smuggled themselves from the Japanese country have all been wiped out by my command department. During the fighting, we killed four of them, seriously injured one of them and captured him, because this person was already injured when he was captured alive.
Seriously, although we found a doctor for him, the man died in the end, and we haven't had time to dig out more valuable information from him...
··”
At this point, Wang Xuecheng paused for a moment, and after quietly looking at Ye Mingsheng's facial expression from the corner of his eye, he cautiously reported to Ye Mingsheng;
"We learned from other channels that these five people are subordinates of Muto Zhenaki, one of the three followers of Japan. This trip was sent by Muto Zhenaki to perform a secret mission!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Mingsheng's eyes flashed with an imperceptible light. After a moment, Ye Mingsheng said slowly:
"Did that Japanese temptress have the last name Muto?"
Although Ye Mingsheng said the name directly, when he heard the word "temptress", Wang Xuecheng's mind quickly emerged with a enchanting figure, and he nodded immediately and said:
"Yes, her original name was Muto Takahide, and she was the eldest daughter of Muto Masaaki. In her early years, she married Kobayakawa Kenji of the famous Kobayakawa family. According to Japanese customs, she changed her name to Kobayakawa Takahide, but they only got married for more than a year.
Kobayakawa Kenji died of illness, and Kobayakawa Takahide also came to the palace at this time and joined the Black Dragon Society!"
After Wang Xuecheng finished speaking, he waited for Ye Mingsheng's order. However, he waited for about a cup of tea, and Ye Mingsheng did not speak. Seeing this, Wang Xuecheng quietly observed Ye Mingsheng's expression, but he saw nothing.
, hesitated for a moment and then asked tentatively:
"Sir, do you want me to bring in Kobayakawa Takahide..."
Wang Xuecheng's words interrupted Ye Mingsheng's contemplation. Ye Mingsheng waved his hand and said:
"No, this matter ends here! Just pay close attention to the situation in Gongdu and Japan!"
Seeing Ye Mingsheng mentioning the situation in the palace capital, Wang Xuecheng also reported the situation in the palace capital to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"Sir, the current situation in Gongdu is under control. Li Xuanmin and Li Xuanchang are fighting fiercely, and we have also selected a person to support. This person is Li Xuanren, the eldest son of Seosanjun, the royal family of Gongdu!"
Hearing the name "Li Xuanren", Ye Mingsheng felt that it was familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he heard this name. Sensing Ye Mingsheng's doubts, Wang Xuecheng reminded:
"Sir, this Li Xuanren served as the garrison of Xianxing County when our army entered the palace to fight. He was captured by General Yuan Song when he attacked Xianxing County. Because he was a prisoner of our army,
This person is very afraid of our army and is very willing to cooperate with our army!"
Ye Mingsheng became interested when he heard this, and asked again:
"Other than that, is there any other reason for this person that made you choose him?"
Faced with Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Wang Xuecheng organized his language before introducing:
"The reason why we chose Li Xuanren as the support target of our army is mainly because of his father Seosanjun, who is a big boss of the palace royal family and has great appeal in the clan and court. If we choose someone else,
Then it is very likely that he and Seosan-kun will join forces to try to get rid of our army’s control..."
"Although Li Xuanren is also a member of the royal family of Gongdu, he is not qualified to inherit the throne. It is against etiquette and law for us to help him up. This will definitely cause huge controversy in the court of Gongdu. In order to let his son sit on
To stabilize the throne, Lord Seosan will definitely maintain his rule. In this way, the whole palace will lose the basis for unity. As long as our army makes a little provocation, we can control the situation in the palace with the least energy!"
Hearing what Wang Xuecheng said, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but look at him deeply. He didn't expect that Wang Xuecheng had such a method!

Jiyu, Dayashan
Still dressed like a scholar, Zhang Zhen appeared in front of Zhu Sanshan again. Looking at Zhu Sanshan in front of him, Zhang Zhen raised his hands and congratulated:
"Congratulations to the boss for your successful start and winning this batch of goods!"
Seeing that Zhang Zhen had already learned the news that he had taken the batch of goods, Zhu Sanshan, who had no expression on his face, simply asked his subordinates to take out a box, and then opened the box in front of Zhang Zhen, only to see something shocking inside.
There is a jeweled, exquisite and elegant porcelain vase.
Seeing the appearance of this porcelain bottle, Zhang Zhen suddenly showed a smile on his face and said:
"Yes, this is the treasure vase our boss wants!"
While talking, Zhang Zhen took out a thick stack of banknotes from his arms and handed them to Zhu Sanshan and said:
"Master Zhu Da knows the rules, pays the money with one hand, and delivers the goods with the other!"
