I'm really not the carpenter emperor

The first is to prevent the mess after the 15th year of Wanli from being liquidated by the new emperor and implicating himself.

Second, I want to see what the new dynasty is like, and whether it is a good choice for my son Luo Yangxing to continue to be the commander.

As it turns out, he was right.

No matter the Emperor Tianqi in history or the current Zhu Youxiao, there has always been a person after his succession-Wei Zhongxian.

Especially Zhu Youxiao who traveled over here, at least on the surface, gave Wei Zhongxian great power.

Zhu Youxiao's deliberate connivance made the eunuchs become powerful several times faster than in history, from the chief inspector of rites to criticize the red, down to the formation of cliques in the imperial court.

Wei Zhongxian is a terrible person, at least Luo Sigong thinks so.

From Zhu Youxiao's perspective, Wei Zhongxian seems to be a smooth guy who is extremely considerate in everything and is especially good at understanding his own thoughts.

However, in the eyes of courtiers like Luo Sigong, Wei Zhongxian has only one pronoun, which is terror.

With the support of the emperor, Wei Zhongxian almost turned into a political machine from the 47th year of Wanli to the current five years of Tianqi.

Surrounding him in the court, the eunuchs soon became a force that cannot be ignored in the court.

The parties of Qi, Chu, and Zhejiang, which were defeated by Donglin in the Wanli Dynasty, moved closer to Wei Zhongxian one after another, and formed antagonism with Donglin party.

This also led to the rapid rise of a new faction, the Donglin Party used to be called the "Eunuch Party", after the downfall of Donglin, it is now called the Wei Party.

After "controlling" the government, Wei Zhongxian began to liquidate the opposing Donglin Party members through deliberately arranged major cases.

This is not over yet. After Wei Zhongxian became the admiral, the power of Dongchang began to rejuvenate for a second time, and the Donglin scholars were arrested among the people.

In the five years since Tianqi ruled, there must have been at least a few thousand members of the Donglin party who died at the hands of the Dongchang fanzi.

According to the words of some scholars, Dongchang at that time committed all kinds of evil, even to the point of "unprecedented and unprecedented".

What about Jin Yiwei?

It was the arrangements for Jin Yiwei that made Luo Sigong feel that the young emperor at that time was anything but simple.

Perhaps, even Wei Zhongxian is just a pawn...

What did Zhu Youxiao do?

When pampering Wei Zhongxian, through some means, the independence of the Jinyiwei system was maintained in a certain aspect, and even faintly formed a check and balance with Dongchang.

There is one person to be promoted here, Xu Xianchun.

The appearance of Xu Xianchun was within Luo Sigong's expectation, but it was beyond his expectation, because this person was too ruthless in dealing with others.

He was so ruthless that it could be said that Xu Xianchun would do anything in order to be able to kneel and lick the current emperor.

It's good not to be an enemy of this kind of person, but once you become an enemy, it's hard to sleep.

When the Supervision Department was first established, there was little movement. No one thought that the current Supervision Department is almost all over the country.

They can be found everywhere in the state government offices and in remote counties in the mountains.

Almost all the captains of the Supervising Division came from the Fusi of Nanbei Town. It was the existence of the Supervising Division that greatly increased the power of Xu Xianchun, the commander of Jinyiwei.

It can be said that now Xu Xianchun is the commander with the greatest power since the Ming Dynasty, and since the Yongle Year, he is rarely able to sit on an equal footing with the admiral of the East Factory.

At least on the bright side, Xu Xianchun, who holds the power of the supervisory department, is already qualified to be Wei Zhongxian's opponent.

Regardless of the confrontation between Jinyiwei and Dongchang, or the rise of the "eunuch party", these have greatly improved the imperial power, and the biggest beneficiary will always be the emperor.

It can be seen from this that the young emperor who was harmless to humans and animals at the beginning of his accession to the throne played a big game of chess.

Luo Sigong understood all this very early on. He knew that as long as Zhu Youxiao was still alive, Xu Xianchun would not fall.

Unless Xu Xianchun made a mistake himself, made an irreparable mistake, enough to cause him to lose all trust in an instant!

But five years later, although Xu Xianchun had nothing to do with the Luo family that was deeply rooted in Jinyiwei, he never gave him a chance to make a comeback.

Recently, Luo Yangxing has become more and more impatient. Even Luo Sigong doesn't know what he is doing secretly.

He looked at his son who was kneeling down, still dissatisfied, and said angrily:

"Do you know how much trouble you have caused our Luo family?"

"I said a long time ago, don't be an enemy of Xu Xianchun, wait until he makes a mistake! No one can bring him down now!"

"Why don't you listen?"

Luo Yangxing twisted his neck and said:

"Father, it's okay, don't worry, I've made all the arrangements."

"Qianhu of the Zhangjiakou Supervision Department received my kindness in the early years, so it is impossible for him to betray us. Besides, even if he knows, what can Xu Xianchun do?"

Luo Sigong sighed, his right eyelid suddenly twitched, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart, and said:

"Xu Xianchun is vicious, do you know what he has done?"

Luo Yangxing sneered, "What? My son, you are welcome!"

In his eyes, Wei Zhongxian might be a little stronger, but Xu Xianchun only had the emperor's trust to ride on his head.

Luo Yangxing believed that if he was given the same starting point as Xu Xianchun, the latter would never have any chance!

Therefore, he has been dissatisfied.

After receiving Luo Sigong's lesson, he endured it for so many years, and just made a move when Fan Yongdou was discovered when he went to the capital.

But he has nothing to be afraid of, because he knows that thousand households, and some people would rather die than betray their masters.

Luo Yangxing knew this very well!

Luo Sigong hesitated to speak, recalled the past, and said in a daze:

"There was a case in Hangzhou where Xu Xianchun boiled his 80-year-old mother alive in front of the prisoner in order to extract a confession through torture."

"Cooked to death... At that time, one of my confidantes was standing beside me. It is said that Xu Xianchun didn't even change his face."

"Your Majesty won't know about this kind of thing. Even if he knows, he will treat it as if he doesn't know! The world is not as simple as you think!"

"Be an enemy of such a beast, son, you shouldn't!"

Hearing this, Luo Yangxing stayed where he was, he really didn't expect how someone could have such a vicious heart.

It's okay to kill a child, but boil an 80-year-old woman alive?

Is Xu Xianchun still a person?

Chapter 6 Chapter Three

horrible……

terrible……

After hearing this, Luo Yangxing's face changed. Xu Xianchun was extremely vicious, but he couldn't even be called "ruthless".

Only now did Luo Yangxing clearly realize how ridiculous his previous thoughts were. He was still a child fighting against such an unscrupulous person.

"Bang bang bang—" There was a hasty knock on the door, both father and son were shocked, Beizhen Fusi came.

Hearing that there was no movement in the mansion, there was a moment of silence outside, and there was another "knock" on the door with punches and kicks, and one person shouted at the top of his voice:

"Luo Yangxing assisted Fan's family to die, Beizhen Fusi ordered to investigate, open the door quickly!"

……

At the same time, Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.

Beside the Xuande Stove, there is a man in his thirties kneeling, dressed in black, who is a member of the secret service organization Zhu Youxiao secretly formed.

It's just that this contestant can enter the palace to contact the emperor, and he can be regarded as the one with a higher status.

The head of the fight is not particularly strong, but his steps are steady, and there is no fluctuation in his complexion. In his watery eyes, there is only loyalty to the person in front of him.

Such a person, others would shudder when they saw it.

"How's the matter?" Zhu Youxiao asked indifferently when he saw Qiao Shi entering the palace, and retreated the rest of the palace people.

There is no extra etiquette in the matter, and after hearing the words, he bowed and said:

"Your Majesty, on the Shanxi side, the elders Hu and Xu are presiding over the aftermath of the ransacking of the Qu family's house. It is conservatively estimated that there will be tens of millions of taels."

"Hu Shiguang seems to have an old friend with Yu Hongbin, the procurator of Shanxi. The procurator of Shanxi interrogated him and convicted Qu Jingxin. Shanxi merchants can't afford it."

"Hu Shiguang knows the procurator of Shanxi...?" Zhu Youxiao asked back, but he didn't expect an answer, and said directly:

"What else, what did Xu Weijing do after he went down?"

He said meticulously: "Returning to Your Majesty, the two elders seem to have a clear division of labor. Xu Weijing deals with Shanxi officials and gentry, haunting restaurants all day long."

"Heh..." Zhu Youxiao chuckled and asked:

"Where is Xu Xianchun, what's going on?"

Comparing things, he said: "The Zhangjiakou Supervising Department was bloodbathed, and more than 1000 school lieutenants were arrested and killed. Xu Xianchun also sent people to kill the family of Qianhu Yulian, the former supervising department."

Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"anything else?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Beizhen Fusi has already set his sights on the Luo family. According to our report on the matter in the Luo mansion, they have just surrounded the Luo mansion. Judging from the posture, they should have dispatched at least 500 people."

"It seems that Xu Xianchun has already found out." Zhu Youxiao nodded.

Xu Xianchun was really competent in his work, and he didn't procrastinate. He found out who the traitor in the Jinyiwei in the Fan family's surrogate death case was so quickly.

Although it is a little unreasonable to handle things, but as an emperor, it is indeed comfortable for his cronies to handle things steadily and ruthlessly.

To be honest, Zhu Youxiao was not surprised that it was the Luo family's fault.

Historically, the Luo family tended to be more civil servants, especially the famous Donglin Party among them. They connived at the eunuchs to liquidate Donglin. The Luo family did not move at all, and they must be holding back their energy and waiting for an opportunity.

After the Emperor Tianqi fell into the water and died in history, the Luo family took over very quickly. In fact, they were not idle at all.

If he hadn't gone down by himself and accidentally discovered that the dead Fan Yongdou was still enjoying himself outside, it would be impossible for the affairs of the Luo family to be exposed so quickly.

Xu Xianchun ran the Luo family for reasons of revenge, of course, but for himself as an emperor, it was a good thing that the Luo family disappeared from now on.

That being the case, let him go.

Zhu Youxiao gave a "hmm" without saying anything, and said:

"What is the name of the person who is placed in the Luo family by the Jiaoshi government, and where did he come from?"

He said: "Your Majesty, his name is Cao Ying. He came back from fleeing from disaster in Liaodong. His whole family died in the hands of Jiannu and was adopted by villains. He has been in the mansion for more than a year. He has been assigned to work in the Fan family and the Luo family successively. .”

"Do you have any relatives?"

"No."

Zhu Youxiao stood up from the throne, walked to the edge of the window eaves, and after getting a general understanding of the situation, he was silent for a while, and said softly:

"Cao Ying made a great contribution. Since no relatives are alive, you can receive the reward. Find a time when no one is around, and put his spiritual seat in the Martyrs' Shrine."

As he said that, Zhu Youxiao glanced down at the roster in his hand, and said, "From now on, your name will be Cao An."

He was taken aback for a moment, with tears in his eyes, he cupped his fists and said:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"You go down."

Zhu Youxiao watched Cao An retreat, and looked out of the palace wall along the window eaves. There were thousands of lights there, and it was a real singing and dancing.

……

Zhu Youxiao gradually turned his eyes, and suddenly found a person.

Concubine Liang, Wang Shi, has already changed her clothes, freshened and washed properly, and she is standing outside the Nuan Pavilion, performing the usual rituals upright.

Only then did Zhu Youxiao suddenly remember his promise.

Now that the time limit has passed, I have completely forgotten about this matter, and let the beautiful woman stay alone in the vacant room, waiting for a month in vain.

Zhu Youxiao coughed in embarrassment: "You, why are you here..."

Wang thanked her, took a few steps forward, and stopped when she was a few steps away, but she didn't want to get close, which was also seen by Zhu Youxiao.

In the past, these harem concubines always wanted to stick to themselves, fearing that they would be sullen.

But it's normal, others said that the emperor said what he said, and he thought it was a certainty, but he was deceived, who would be angry?

After all, it was a pity that Zhu Youxiao began to change the subject:
