Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

This is almost a hole in the sky!

But this power was given to him by himself, and this hole, of course, he had to fill for him.

The emperor took a deep breath, threw the list in his hand on the imperial case, and said to Zhang Dongyuan angrily, "Go and call me that daring Ping An!"

Zhang Dongyuan pursed his lips and suppressed a smile.This was the first time he saw the emperor get angry, but the anger was strange, it looked like he was slapping the table and staring at him carefully, the intimacy and admiration in it were not concealed at all.

Zhang Dongyuan didn't understand what was going on with the emperor's thoughts. Anyway, it was enough to reconfirm that Ping'an was valued and liked by the emperor.

After he left, the emperor picked up the list and looked at it again, but still couldn't help shaking his head.That’s all for the people below, the first three, one is the chief examiner hand-picked by himself, and the other two are the official doctor and Yuanwailang who are the examiners. made.

When has the imperial court seen such a ignorant, unruly punching punch that ended up killing the old master?

At least before arresting people, you have to vent your breath with yourself.

Look at this method of arresting people, the emperor will be laughed at by him!It is said that he followed Qiu Wenhao for two streets, and when he arrived at a secluded place, he knocked him unconscious and dragged him away without any delay.Qiu Wenhao's family only knew that he hadn't returned home, but they still don't know what happened.

Is he arresting criminals or robbing houses?I didn't realize before that the people from the Imperial City Division were so agile!

But for some reason, the emperor saw some likable things from this newborn cow belly's aura of not being afraid of tigers, such as courage, and arresting people is not considered reckless, knowing how to use his own power, etc... ...In short, even knowing that he has done something wrong, he has to find a way to find an excuse for him and praise him for a good job!

It's a bit like how I was when I was young... This thought passed through the emperor's mind vaguely, maybe he didn't even realize it, but it didn't prevent him from being kind to Ping An.

But these are all his own thoughts, when peace really came, he still had a straight face, unable to distinguish between emotions and anger.

Zhang Dongyuan met Ping An at the gate of the palace.He originally planned to find someone in person - after all, this is not a trivial matter, the less people who know about it, the better - but Ping An was about to go to the palace to report.The two turned their heads to Tiangan Palace again.

Along the way, Zhang Dongyuan hesitated a little, but still revealed something to Ping An, "You have made a huge mess. After the emperor heard about it, he lost his temper a lot. You can be careful later."

Although he didn't think what the emperor would really do, it didn't prevent Zhang Dongyuan from taking the opportunity to buy people's hearts!

Ping An naturally thanked him, thinking about what he should say when he saw the emperor later.

Of course he knew that he had stabbed the sky into a basket.Such behavior is actually very taboo in officialdom.Because you don't understand the rules and don't follow the rules, you may look aggressive for a while, but in fact you have no foundation at all.Just like the Monkey King who is making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, the word "noisy" explains the essence of the matter.The final result, of course, is to be suppressed under Wuzhi Mountain.

It looks menacing, that's because the person who can really deal with you hasn't come yet!

But Ping An had to do so.What does the Imperial City Division do?It was originally intended to stir up trouble, to make people hate, scruple, and fear!

If you are not prepared to be a loyal minister, a lonely minister, and a pure minister, you will not be able to resist this responsibility. Even if you take over, you will not be able to do it for long.Therefore, from the very beginning, Ping An put himself on the opposite side of everyone.

Of course, this also has a premise, that is, he also has a "backer".

With the oracle in hand, no matter what he does, he has a basis to rely on, so no matter how afraid others are of him, no matter how much they want to get rid of him, they can't do anything.Therefore, those who engage in intelligence must have 100% loyalty and 100% trust, otherwise they will not be able to do it.

The current attitude of the emperor is still to support him. Ping An's action is a little bigger this time, it might not be a temptation - how much do you trust me?How much power can you give me?

This kind of temptation seemed dangerous, but Ping An controlled him within a certain range, so that he would not hit the bottom, but his tendency could be seen from the emperor's reaction to some extent.If the emperor believes in himself, then needless to say, continue to work, if not, then it is difficult to say whether his grand blueprint is still necessary to be realized.

But just by looking at Zhang Dongyuan's expression, it is impossible to tell that the emperor lost his temper, otherwise the chief executive would have put on a straight face and distanced himself from him, how could he kindly remind him?

The two of them had their own ghosts, and walked to the door of the Benchu ​​Hall with a smile on their faces, and then turned their faces and walked in.

The emperor looked very serious this time, sitting behind the imperial case and flipping through the memorial without raising his head.Zhang Dongyuan and Ping An didn't dare to disturb them, so they could only stand quietly aside.It was not until the emperor looked up after reading a memorial that Ping An stepped forward to salute.

Then, without waiting for the emperor to speak, Pingan quickly reported his achievements in the past few days, and presented the memorial he brought.Now that the case is over, he wrote the memorial according to the rules here, consuming a lot of brain cells.

The emperor glanced at it casually, and it was almost the same as what he knew.He snorted, and threw the memorial directly on Ping An, "Are you convicted?"

"I don't know." Ping An said very sincerely.

The emperor smiled angrily, "Okay! I didn't know you were so courageous! See for yourself what you are doing?"

"Naturally, things are done according to the rules." Pingan said, "The emperor gave the minister full power to deal with this matter, and the minister naturally could not tolerate any sinner. The emperor must not affect Qiu Wei, so the minister made people pay attention everywhere, and it did not cause any noise, let alone A little bit of news spread."

"Since you know you can't influence Qiu Wei, why did you even arrest my chief examiner? Where will I be going to conjure up a chief examiner at the beginning of tomorrow?"

Pingan said, "If your majesty is worried that there will be no examiner, you can rest assured. When the minister came, he had already put him back."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, "Aren't you worried that he will use some means to influence the exam?"

"I think the emperor will not let him do this." Pingan said, "Actually, I have already figured out how to deal with it, but I just need to work for your majesty to move to the tribute court. At that time, the emperor just needs to find a reason to demote Qiu Wenhao or even arrest him. It’s justified.”

"Crooked ways!" The emperor scolded, "Look at how your people are arrested. Hitting the sap in the back, this is the way the Imperial City Secretary handles things? How about I let your people change with the Imperial Guards? That's good. Skills are really buried in the Imperial City Division!"

"Your Majesty appreciates the award, but even if you are the Secretary of the Imperial City, skill is very important. After all, you will inevitably encounter resistance when arresting people." Pinner unceremoniously accepted the emperor's words as a compliment, and even said, "If Your Majesty agrees It would be even better if the Imperial City Division recruited people from the imperial guards."

Dare to bargain with the emperor at this time, Zhang Dongyuan wiped his sweat while admiring Ping An.

Ping An has completely overturned his understanding of the identity of a servant, seriously thinking back, was he too cautious and restrained in his actions before?

But after thinking about it for a while he gave up.Not everyone is safe, he can get to where he is today, relying on being cautious and taking one step at a time.

"Although they are all fallacies and heresies, there is some truth to them." The emperor's attitude suddenly changed, and he said very peacefully, "For the sake of your quick handling of affairs and not causing too much disturbance, this time it will be fine. Never act so recklessly in the future!"

"Yes. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your tolerance." Ping An immediately climbed up the pole.

He has already discovered that the emperor seems to be patient with himself beyond the normal range. The reason is not yet testable, but for Ping An, this is a part that can be used.However, this is the first time to make a name for himself, and he will not use such reckless methods in the future.

He and Zhang Dongyuan are actually the same kind of person, they are cautious and trembling, and they have to think about a matter several times before finally choosing the best solution.

The emperor gave Ping An a lot of face, and asked a few more questions related to the case, and then asked about the current progress of the Imperial City Division, and then let Ping An leave.

But he didn't wait until tomorrow to deal with Qiu Wenhao as Ping An thought.As soon as Ping An left, he asked Qiu Wenhao to come here with a cold face, and showed him Ping An's memorial.

Qiu Wenhao immediately fell to the ground to plead guilty, trembling.

But the emperor sneered at his attitude, "It is said that Hanlin is noble, and you have been with me for a long time. You should know what to do and what not to do. Tell me honestly, who are you trying to win over? People's hearts?"

Qiu Wenhao was startled, and knelt down, not daring to raise his head.

The atmosphere in the original hall was as cold as ice, and even Zhang Dongyuan carefully lowered his head, holding his breath and not daring to make a sound.

After a while, Emperor Cai laughed suddenly, "Okay! He is indeed a loyal minister!"

He bit the word "loyal minister" so hard that Qiu Wenhao, who was kneeling below, trembled, but he still didn't speak in the end.

He, the emperor, was sitting here, but Qiu Wenhao kept silent.It is said that the land of the land is not a king's minister, but he, Qiu Wenhao, is obviously not the emperor, nor is he a loyal minister of Dachu!

"You don't have to ask who your master is." The emperor's mood quickly calmed down, as if this incident had never happened at all, and instead talked to Qiu Wenhao about the ancient times, "I remember that in the past, you followed Taifu is studying, isn't he?"

"Your Majesty..." Qiu Wenhao finally didn't dare to remain silent anymore, and said with a trembling voice, "Everything is the fault of the minister, please be careful not to implicate the innocent!"

"Innocent?" The emperor sneered, "Whether you are innocent or not, you know best in your heart! Zhang Dongyuan, send him to Dali Temple for interrogation."

"Yes." Zhang Dongyuan went out and waved someone to come in, and dragged Qiu Wenhao down.Then he walked back carefully and stood behind the emperor.

After a while, he heard the emperor sigh wearily, and suddenly sighed, "I, the emperor, can be described as a failure!"

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Dongyuan immediately knelt down in fright.

This kind of words is not something he can listen to, let alone answer, the only thing he can do is to kneel down and use this attitude to remind the emperor that he said something wrong.

However, the emperor turned a blind eye to his actions and continued, "Now that I think about it, I don't know how many civil and military men in the Manchu Dynasty are really loyal to me! Or did they all recognize their new masters, day and night? Are you thinking about my seat?"

"My dear son!"

The last sentence exploded on Zhang Dongyuan's head like a thunderbolt, which made him bury his head lower and remained silent.

From these few simple words, he has already heard the bloody storm, I'm afraid...the court will soon usher in a cleansing.

Ping An... Zhang Dongyuan couldn't help but think of the boy who caused all this, how old is he?Before Zhang Dongyuan thought that in time, his achievements would be very high, but looking at it now, there is no need to wait for Ping An, he can do something big right now, disturbing the entire court!

After saying these words, the emperor seemed to be tired of it, and waved his hands and said, "Okay, you can pass on... Zheng Xie."

"Yes." Zhang Dongyuan agreed, and stepped back lightly.Now that he can be announced to have an audience, it is natural to discuss this matter.Anyone who is not the emperor's most trusted person cannot get this opportunity, which shows the emperor's trust in the Zheng family.

Also, there are noble concubines and the eldest son of the emperor in the palace. The Zheng family has always been very respectful and has never heard of any bad reputation.It is not surprising to be favored by the emperor.

But probably because of Ping An's "Jewels come first", Zhang Dongyuan just casually sighed.After all, it is a wealthy family, and it has been operating in the court for a long time, and its friends and old friends are all over the world.If you don't have such ability, how can you stand in court for decades without falling?

Does Ping An know that the prince might be involved behind this incident?Of course he knew, even the emperor knew that he knew.So Ping An arrested Qiu Wenhao, who seemed to be very courageous and reckless, but the emperor knew that he was actually measured.Otherwise, the prince will also be arrested by you, and this matter will really not end.

No matter how angry the emperor was, that was also his own son.Although it is said that the Tian family has no selfish affairs, this is already considered a scandal. If it is spread, the court will be shaken, and the Zhao royal family will lose face.What is the majesty of him, the emperor whose son coveted the throne?

Ping An has figured out everything, but he didn't show it at all, but covered it up with other things. This is the emperor's favorite place.

And Ping An, after delivering the memorial, he has nothing to do with this matter.The emperor wanted to deal with Qiu Wenhao, clean the court, and cut off the wings of his sons, all of which he could not get his hands on.What he was busy with now was the second training session of the Imperial City Division.

People outside didn't know what Ping An was busy with these two days, but it was impossible for the people in Huangcheng Division to remain silent.It's just that the safety news is tightly covered, and nothing can be heard.

However, the few commanders above can still get some clues, at least the fact that Qiu Wenhao was arrested cannot be concealed.But now that they are in their position, they naturally know that it is impossible for Ping An to arrest people recklessly, and no one will reveal the news.Who will be responsible for things that go wrong?

Some people even saw some clues from Qiu Wenhao Qiuwei's identity as the chief examiner and the assessment questions arranged by Pingan, and they were secretly startled.If it is really a case of cheating in the imperial examination, then this matter is really a big deal!

Ping An has just trained the first batch of students, and the assessment has not yet ended, and it seems that they have led someone to arrest such a big case.How can others not be envious?

After all, the Secretary of the Imperial City said that he was looking for news, and what he could find out on weekdays was only trivial and useless trifles.Therefore, the yamen that existed in the founding of the country is still penniless, spying on news is more like a part-time job, and the main job is janitor.

So Ping An suddenly became lively here.

Shi Shiwen was the first to visit.As a training teacher, he naturally knew what Ping An had been teaching. He was already secretly startled at that time, but now that he saw Ping An's ability to reach the sky, he naturally no longer hesitated, and immediately came to surrender.

He came, and Xiong Bin, as his follower, was naturally unavoidable.Then Xu Cong'an and Qin Congli also came over one after another.Ping An never refuses anyone who comes to this, and all of them received them with smiles, expressing that they are welcome to work with him to build the Imperial City Division better. Company, we are all in the same boat”, and he only revealed his real purpose when everyone’s understanding came to light.

What I showed you before was just the training plan. In fact, there are many contents that are not on the above. What Ping An presents now is the real training outline.

"Students who fail the assessment are sent to other places to establish a branch?" Shi Shiwen was the first to raise an objection, "What's the meaning of this branch, my lord?"

"The news from the capital city is very important, and of course the other places can't be ignored." Ping An said, "Although these people can't pass the assessment, they are also talents cultivated by our Imperial City Division and cannot be idle. Let them go to other places to exercise first. Organize manpower, set up a branch of the Imperial City Division, inquire about local news, and send it back regularly. It is also somewhat useful. Besides, you can gradually improve during actual training. Passed the test."

Some people are not enough to just teach theoretical knowledge. He may not be good at theory, but he does well in practice.Ping An's move can also screen out these people.Besides, even if they are stupid, if they do not ask them to be flexible, they can still play their role if they follow the rules!

"Could it be that the entire 32 prefectures of Dachu, Shangxia, and Liulu have to set up a branch?" Xu Cong'an quickly saw the long-term impact from it.If this is the case, then the Imperial City Division may really become a behemoth.

"Yes." Ping An affirmed his guess, "All of you are the backbone of the Imperial City Division, and when the time comes, each commander will lead the way."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was naturally happy.Who doesn't like getting promoted and getting rich?But in the former Imperial City Division, they have reached the end of this level, so naturally they have no motivation.But now it is different.No one is in charge all the way, what is that concept?

The governor is in charge of the local military and government along the way. He is a second-rank official of the imperial court and a big official in the frontier.And if they can control the news along the way, although they are not as good as the governor, they can secretly supervise the governor. Once they are caught with something, they may directly pull people off the horse.What kind of experience was that?

At that time, maybe just mentioning the word "Imperial City Secretary" will make people fearful and bow their heads!

The ultimate of being an official is nothing more than this.

Seeing the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Ping An was very satisfied.How to make your subordinates feel at ease?As long as you have a future with you, no one will be troubled by their own future.

But after the chicken blood is over, he is about to pour cold water on him, "But let's talk about the ugly words first. If there is such a day as the Imperial City Secretary, then of course the position of command will be occupied by the capable. Don't think that you are sitting In this position, everything will be fine, and you don’t need to use your brain. If you don’t do well, I will also replace you.”

The faces of the five conductors who had been beaming just now immediately became serious.

Ping An glanced at them, and then said, "And when the time comes, I will suggest to the emperor to set up a new department to monitor the Imperial City Department. Therefore, don't think that you can abuse the power at will, and relax your vigilance." !"

Hearing this decision, some people frowned and were dissatisfied, while others were secretly shocked.

Surprised by the calmness of peace.

If it is an ordinary person who can hold such great power in his hands, he may have been in a trance for a long time, and no one cares about it. He thinks that he is the only one in the sky and the earth, and that a disagreement can completely destroy others.This is the influence that power can bring to people, and sometimes even if you know it is wrong, you will still indulge in it.

That's addictive stuff.

But Ping An had already thought about how to supervise before the development of the Imperial City Division.

This greatly curbed the infinite expansion of the Imperial City Division, and made everyone feel a string in their hearts.

Being able to do this shows that Ping An did not take the imperial city secretary's achievements and power at his fingertips seriously.

The eyes of these people looking at Ping An are quite different from before.He didn't pay much attention to the Imperial City Secretary, obviously he had greater ambitions, following him, would he be worried that he would go the wrong way?

"I'm waiting for the adults to follow suit!" Shi Shiwen was the first to speak sincerely.

Wang Congyi and Xiong Bin followed closely behind, Qin Congli and Xu Cong'an looked at each other, and followed suit.They have different attitudes, and Ping An also sees them one by one. ——No one stipulated that when the Imperial City Division develops, the original team should be used!
