Several hours passed, and the outline of the capital had also appeared faintly in everyone's sight.
This is the first time Li Xiu has truly seen a large city of this era. The top city he had seen before was wandering in the wilderness and was just a dilapidated county town.
This is the first time he has seen a city as towering as the capital.
The city is majestic and solemn, and although the city walls are a little old, they still give people a sense of indestructibility at first glance.
Li Xiu was really unimaginable. If there were soldiers in this city who were willing to defend themselves, they would have to pay their lives to break through the city.
At the feet of the emperor and outside the capital, the Jinyiwei naturally changed his previous cautious appearance. He passed the city gate and the soldiers guarding the city also retreated to the side for fear of angering the fierce Jinyiwei.
Not to mention the business travelers at the city gate, they feared them like tigers, and they all lowered their eyebrows and looked down and were submissive, and did not dare to say anything.
Li Xiu sat on the carriage, although he was not as good as a furious horse, but he was also full of murderous aura due to the blood stained on his body.
Even when looking around, even if you look at each other, you will flash at once. This kind of scene comes into your eyes and makes Li Xiu feel a strong sense of strangeness come out in his heart.
Drunk and lie down on the beautiful knees, wake up and hold the power of the world!
If you are lucky enough to reach this era, if you don’t live your life vigorously, wouldn’t it be a waste of this time travel experience?
Whether it is a good reputation in history or a stigma for the ages!
He has too many desires for this era!
The blazing flames burn in my heart, and the passion is nothing more than this!
When the convoy passed through the city gate, it was a straight and wide street. The streets were filled with traffic and people came and went, and it was so noisy.
At this moment, when the Jinyiwei convoy was coming, everyone consciously retreated.
Although the Jinyiwei has been declining for a long time, the status of the emperor's personal army has always been maintained. Due to its noble status, the Jinyiwei Yamen is not scattered in the alleys of the capital like other private army yamen.
Instead, Chengtian Gate, the main gate of the imperial city, is located on the west side of Qianbulang, adjacent to the Five Army Governor's Office, across the street from Liubu on the east side, and is located at the garrison of the current core authority of the imperial court.
Li Xiu naturally didn't know about these, but he couldn't help but the man in the Jinyiwei who was driving beside him was speechless.
Of course, this may be because of the congratulations that followed when Li Ruolian valued him.
Li Xiu saw this very clearly.
Through this Jinyiwei man named Zhang Wu, Li Xiu also had a clear idea of ​​Jinyiwei for the first time. The movie scenes about Jinyiwei in his mind slowly dissipated, and turned into a true Jinyiwei of this era.
The Jinyiwei belongs to one of the twelve guards of Shangzhi in the imperial city of Guwei. However, due to its special responsibilities, its status is also extremely special.
As the Emperor's personal army, the Jinyiwei almost took over most of the guards related to the Emperor.
If you guard the palace gate, you will be guarding outside the hall when you go to court, or if the emperor goes out for sacrifice, the Jinyiwei will be responsible for the entire responsibility...
Of course, if it were just these, the Jinyiwei would not have the reputation of making children cry like this.
The real special feature of the Jinyiwei is that it is independent of the rules and is the direct embodiment of the emperor's will.
After all, under normal circumstances, the emperor must at least pass the court's deliberation, and then arrest people and deal with them in the court's system.
But the Jinyiwei has these functions, arresting, detaining, trialing, and handling! Even diplomacy and military information!
A closed loop has been completely formed and is completely free from any rules and constraints other than the emperor.
This kind of existence that is not subject to rules is a disaster in the eyes of the court. After all, no one wants to be monitored by others at all times. If you are accidentally caught without any movement, you will not know how to die if you are killed...
The establishment of the Jinyiwei is also very simple. The commander of the third-rank Jinyiwei is the largest. Below are two commanders who are deputy commanders, with the third-rank commander, and the following are two commanders in charge of military discipline and training, with the fourth-rank commander.
These are the core leadership of the Jinyiwei.
Further down there is the North and South Town Fu Office, with 14,000 households.
The North and South Town Fushi, which is naturally well-known.
The Nanzhen Fushi Office mainly supervises the internal supervision of the Jinyiwei, while the Beizhen Fushi Office and the Jinyiwei are at least 90% of the evil name of the Beizhen Fushi Office, which is the credit of the Beizhen Fushi Office. The famous imperial prison is under the jurisdiction of the Zhenfu Office.
And down there are fourteen thousand households. Of course, there are only three thousand households at present, among which the flag bearer Thousand Households were changed to the flag bearer during the Yongle period.
The other thousand households constitute all the responsibilities of the Jinyiwei, including those responsible for the emperor's ceremonies, those responsible for the guards of the palace, those responsible for the arrest and combat, those responsible for internal supervision, and those responsible for the punishment...
In short, the role of the Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty was almost like a small court, and there was nothing that the Jinyiwei could not do!
Of course, most of the time, in addition to their own responsibilities and other things, the Jinyiwei now can only help one or two, for fear that he will be impeached and impeached and imprisoned if he is out of order.
Moreover, according to Zhang Wu, the power of the Jinyiwei today is not as clear as before, extremely chaotic, and there are also chaotic internal chaos, and there are few people who do practical things.
When the fantasy of the Jinyiwei in my mind was completely replaced by reality, Li Xiu had to admit that the Jinyiwei is not a good place now.
Wei Zhongxian has begun to take power and his strength has emerged. Although the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei have risen again, the characteristics of the Jinyiwei are destined to be rejected.
Moreover, it was precisely because the Jinyiwei relied on Wei Zhongxian to rise again. When Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, he was fooled and flattered by the Donglin Party and ordered the so-called "eunuch party" to be eliminated. Maybe at that time, if he was in the Jinyiwei, he would be affected by the fish in the Chiyu.
"Don't worry, take a step by step..."
I couldn't figure it out, so I didn't want to. Li Xiu rubbed his cheeks and leaned on the carriage in a comfortable position. He chatted with the Jinyiwei man beside him.
What surprised Li Xiu was that Zhang Wu was actually the elite trained by the Jinyiwei, but his training was still far away in the Wanli period.
He heard that he was obviously quite sad. According to common sense, the elite elites trained by the Jinyiwei will naturally not waste more than ten years, and they are just small banners of Jinyiwei.
However, Zhang Wu was obviously lucky and made contributions to the Jinyiwei. He had just been promoted from an ordinary strongman to a small flag. When he was full of confidence, he was injured and left the root of the disease when he performed a task.
