Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 37 made a fortune

The efficiency of Dongchang is high. In just two days, Chen Yan, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs and the University of Martial Arts Hall, was appointed.

Seeing Wang Chengen from the West Factory, how can he be compared to the East Factory?

Under the expedited interrogation, all the shady things about Wang Zhixin and other eunuchs in the palace, even the trivial things were brought out, compiled into a book and presented to the imperial court.

The palm-printed eunuchs in the palace received 50 taels of silver alone, while their previous donations totaled only 3 taels.If you add their shops and properties outside the palace, as well as gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, the value will be more than one million.

Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen was both happy and angry.

Happily, after doing this, there was a large amount of money again, which provided financial support for the subsequent reorganization of the imperial army.

What makes him angry is that his own underwear has to be patched and worn, and he is reluctant to spend money on himself. As a result, the group of eunuchs under him are so rich and live extravagantly!
It's no wonder that they were all reluctant to serve their country in the end, and only wanted to change their masters and continue to keep their glory and wealth!
At the same time, the interrogation about Luo Yangxing, the commander of Jin Yiwei, was also submitted together.

Luo Yangxing's silver was as much as 15 taels, and his other wealth totaled about 35 taels, which means his net worth was about 50 taels.

Let Xichang rectify the lower court system, and Emperor Chongzhen got 65 taels of silver. If Chen Yan's 5 taels were added, it would be 70 taels of silver.

This made Emperor Chongzhen more confident that he would expand the scale according to the model of the Yongwei Battalion and establish a strong army directly under him.

Jingying is already rotten, and he actually knows this in his heart.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen set up a new Yongwei camp before, and Zhou Yuji, Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong recommended by Liu Weichao were all generals in the Yongwei camp.

However, the scale of the Yongwei Battalion was too small, and the Ming Dynasty was fighting everywhere. Emperor Chongzhen had to split up the Yongwei Battalion and send it to various parts of the country to fight fires.In the end, the troops dispersed and were overwhelmed by the increasingly large bandits.

Now that he has so much money, Liu Weichao emphasized the truth in the barrel of a gun. Emperor Chongzhen actually understood it himself. Therefore, at this time, he felt that he could do a lot.There is no longer the feeling of a penny suffocating a hero like before.

However, this rectification also brought a result that Emperor Chongzhen could not have imagined.

That is Chen Yan, Wang Zhixin and other people who were arrested. They probably thought "If I die, everyone will feel uncomfortable", they confessed to their crimes with other officials. Of course, most of them were related to money.

The list is placed in front of the imperial court, the number of people is shocking, should they be arrested or not?
If caught, it is estimated that the imperial court will be paralyzed, and under the background of difficult state affairs, if the imperial court is paralyzed, the impact will be very great.

But if he didn't catch him, Emperor Chongzhen would be angry when he saw it.

Looking at the list, Emperor Chongzhen touched his phone several times, wanting to consult Liu Weichao's opinion.

But remembering that Liu Weichao was going to take an exam, it must be very bad if it affected his job hunting, so he forcibly held back.

He didn't even know that if it was him before, if it wasn't Liu Weichao, he wouldn't care what the other party was doing, he would just do whatever he wanted!

However, the importance of Liu Weichao's status made him consciously start to think about what impact his actions would have on Liu Weichao!
Unable to discuss with Liu Weichao, Emperor Chongzhen thought about it for a while, and then asked Wang Chengen about the secret investigation.

"Back to Lord Long Live, more than half a year has passed since this incident, and the slaves have done it in secret. At present, they are just taking advantage of this arrest to sort out the situation and have already targeted some people." Of course Wang Chengen knew that the matter was important, He hurriedly replied, "Give the servant some more time, and there will definitely be some clues!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen ordered with a bit of hostility in his seriousness: "I don't need to be quick, but I must investigate this matter for me. I want to see who it is who dares to plot against me and murder me. Prince!"

After a pause, he explained again: "Your focus is to investigate this matter. If you need anything, just ask me!"

"Slave obeys the order!" Wang Chengen responded quickly after hearing this.

Later, Emperor Chongzhen asked Wang Chengen to go to work, and invited Wang Dehua to have an audience.

"I learned from Xichang that Wu Changshi, a member of the bureaucracy, has committed many crimes!" Emperor Chongzhen stared at Wang Dehua, who was kneeling there, and said in a cold voice, "I am satisfied with your performance in the matter of Chen Yan. Then Wu Changshi I'll leave it to you to handle the matter, let's see how you do it?"

When Wang Dehua heard this, he secretly groaned in his heart.

He guessed in his heart that Emperor Chongzhen was very dissatisfied with him, and was cheating him, asking him to bite those civil servants.

However, there was nothing he could do about it.

Because even though he was the eunuch in charge of the ceremonies and the admiral of Dongchang, he was just a servant of the emperor after all.If you don't listen to the emperor's words, if you don't satisfy the emperor, you don't need any trouble at all, just a word can make him live or die!
In desperation, Wang Dehua could only agree immediately and behaved very obediently.

Because he understood that in the current situation, he could only hug the emperor's thigh tightly, and he couldn't care less about those civil servants.

Later, under the personal leadership of Wang Dehua, Dongchang fanzi broke into the official office and took Wu Chang away under the eyes of the civil officials, which immediately caused a sensation in the capital again.

If the West Factory is arresting eunuchs who are in power in the palace, and the civil servants in the outer court still have the leisure to eat melons, then when the East Factory first arrested Chen Yan, and now Wu Chang is arrested, there is a great tendency to continue to attack the civil servants. It caused panic among the officials of the foreign court.

As a result, the memorial to the impeachment of Wang Dehua and Dongchang immediately flew to Emperor Chongzhen's desk like snowflakes.Of course, there were impeachment of Xichang in the middle, but relatively speaking, it was much less.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't even bother to read these memorials.

Now, with Liu Weichao here, he no longer trusts his courtiers, and the so-called three-person approach to becoming a tiger is useless at all.

In a blink of an eye, the day passed, and it was almost evening.

Emperor Chongzhen was busy reviewing the mountains of memorials accumulated before, and suddenly felt the phone vibrating in his chest, so he quickly put down the imperial pen and went to get the phone.

He has been afraid to contact Liu Weichao, but he has been thinking about Liu Weichao's side in his heart. If he can contact him, of course he will pick it up as soon as possible.

According to the usual practice, the maids and servants will be kicked out by him when he talks to Liu Weichao.

Just as soon as the connection was made, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't wait to ask: "Is the matter of taking the test in order?"

　Thanks to Huayi for the 5000 starting point coin reward, and thanks to LepTon500 for the starting point coin reward!
