Chapter 706: The layout of the Donglin Party
Choi Chengxiu didn't understand what the emperor meant, so she suddenly made this decision, but he still left according to the order.
As for Wei Zhongxian later, he felt very nervous.
After Cui Chengxiu left, Zhu Youxiao didn't ask them to sit on the imperial throne and read the memorial on his own.
Wei Zhongxian knew that he could not stand here, so he changed into a smile and stepped forward and said flatteringly:
"Master, I have something important to report."
"What's up?"
"It was the Suzhou Dongchang Banner's Officer who was beaten to death. Zhou Shunchang resisted paying taxes and encouraged the people, and his mind was extremely bad."
Wei Zhongxian said hehe, seeing that the emperor's expression was still the same, he had already guessed a little in his heart, and plucked the courage to walk to the imperial throne, and began to pinch the emperor's shoulders and massage the back.
"Master, this time it was a business from the East Factory. Why not leave it to me if I'm going to deal with it?"
Zhu Youxiao then looked at him sideways, then turned back, and asked while reading the memorial: "Why are you suddenly concerned about this?"
"The matter in Suzhou should be left to Yang Huan, who was under the custody department. Your Dongchang will do your best to investigate the White Lotus Sect."
When the emperor said this, even if someone with some thoughts is right, he should go back at this time.
But who is Wei Zhongxian?
Today, when it comes to guessing the minds of the Emperor of Heaven, he ranks second, and no one dares to rank first, he is almost sure that the emperor is definitely playing hard to get.
No matter what happens, you must focus on making the emperor happy. You must never let him feel a hindrance and keep it in your heart.
It may be fine now, but the problem will be big in the future.
He hammered his back for a while and smiled:
"Your Majesty is wise. Yang Qianhu is one of the four major households in the Fufu Department. He has a natural and down-to-earth ability. But this matter... is a mess caused by the Dongchang after all."
"Your Majesty asked Li Shi to go to Suzhou to set up a weaving bureau, and the Royal Chamber of Commerce was also located in Suzhou. From then on, the chaos in Suzhou has never stopped..."
"The reason is that it blocked some people's wealth. Zhou Shunchang, a disciple of Zhou Qiyuan, is Zhou Qiyuan's disciple."
When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he remembered it.
Who is this Zhou Qiyuan? He was a Jinshi in the 29th year of Wanli, a hard-core Donglin Party. After Zhu Youxiao established the Suzhou Weaving Bureau in the first year of Tianqi, he opposed it the most.
Zhou Qiyuan once wrote a memorial to impeach Li Shi, the governor of the Weaver Bureau, for his unlawful favoritism, and Zhu Youxiao did not take it seriously.
Wei Zhongxian was also capable of doing things. Seeing that Emperor Tianqi didn't care, he just asked the East Factory to arrest Zhou Qiyuan and tortured him to the capital.
In fact, Zhu Youxiao knew exactly what Li Shi did.
Zhou Qiyuan and the Donglin Party’s words were purely fabricated, just to close the Weaving Bureau.
If the weaving bureau was opened, all the mulberry silkworm business in the Suzhou and Hangzhou area would fall into the hands of the court, that is, Zhu Youxiao himself.
The big guys behind the Donglin Party will definitely not do this.
The reason why Zhou Qiyuan popped up was because he was actually a small character, and there was a larger Donglin Party member behind him who wanted to help the interest groups behind the scenes get back the business of the mulberry silkworms.
This silk made of mulberry silkworms has always been very popular among merchants from Europe. Merchants from all over the world often resell them one by one, but it is the most profitable business in the Suzhou and Hangzhou area.
Even Zhou Qiyuan is a small character who comes out to die, not to mention Zhou Shunchang, the so-called "Seven Sages of the Queen of Donglin".
Now it seems that he is just a smaller role that the Donglin Party can abandon at any time.
After dealing with the Donglin Party for so many years, Zhu Youxiao knew at least one thing, that is, the one that the Donglin Party called the most is always just a small character.
Whether it is Zhou Qiyuan who died in the East Factory in the second year of Tianqi or Zhou Shunchang who suddenly made trouble now, they are all optional.
Behind them, there must be someone hiding deeper and watching in secret.
Wei Zhongxian made the words clear today, and he knew the most about these secret pokes.
When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he felt a chill. He no longer had any intention of deliberately scaring him and said directly:
"Since Zhongxian wants to do things for me so much, I will give you this opportunity."
"Tell Yang Huan that you don't need to intervene in the Beizhen Fushi. You should leave it to the Dongchang and send Ti to Suzhou to arrest Zhou Shunchang for the first time."
"Those who participate in this resistance to paying taxes will be arrested together!"
From Wei Zhongxian's decision to settle the matter and to Zhu Youxiao's personal inquiries, Jinyiwei and Dongchang took action one after another, but only two days have passed.
In the past two days, the situation in Suzhou has become even worse.
After the East Factory took over Suzhou, the capital was filled with the Tiqi, and Wei Zhongxian directly sent his nephew, Fu Yingxing, the big boss, to go there himself.
Not to mention how chaotic it was when the Tiqi went to Suzhou, the people of Wang Gongchang received an unpredictable order in the south city of Beijing.
The official Chinese of the Ministry of Works said that Wang Gong Factory and its surrounding factories and bureaus must withdraw from Nancheng before May.
The Ministry of Works has designated a new address 30 miles away from the suburbs of Beijing, where the new factory bureau of Wanggong Factory is located in the future.
......
The location of Wang Gongchang is located in the area of Yongning Hutong and Guangcai Hutong, south of Xinwen Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, north of Xuanwumen West Street, east of Dushikou South Street, and west of Tonglinge Road.
Since the Yongle period, the Ming Dynasty has attached great importance to the manufacturing of firearms, and at least it is very active in imitating European firearms, so firearms have developed relatively greatly.
The Shenji Camp among the three major camps of the capital is the first established musket force in the world. Although it is no longer glorious now, it still has its foundation after all.
Among the three major camps, the Shenji Camp was the absolute main force. In the battle of the Oirat siege of the capital, the Shenji Camp was able to repel the Oirat cavalry almost entirely by using advanced firearms.
Before Zhu Youxiao succeeded to the throne, the Shenji Camp was at least nominally equipped with the most advanced firearms and the strongest troops.
To this end, during the Yongle, Zhengde and Wanli periods, six gunpowder factory bureaus were established in Beijing.
All bird guns, leads, gunpowder and gunpowder required for the Shenji Camp are pre-made by Wang Gong Factory for the soldiers of Shenji Camp to be used by the Shenji Camp.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Shenjiying is his own son in this specification.
However, since Zhu Youxiao succeeded to the throne, the status of Shenji Camp was no longer there. Instead, a person named Yongwei Camp was established, replacing the original position of the Jing Camp and the twelve Emperors' personal guards in the Forbidden City.
This Yongwei camp is now mostly called the Imperial Guard.
As for the original three camps, Zhu Youxiao did not rectify them much, and just left them half-dead, so they let them die for six years.
No one expected that the first order for the three camps would be to move out the Wang Gongchang, which was originally in the capital.
At this moment, the nobles from the three camps stopped doing it.
Everyone knows that Wang Gong Factory and its affiliated factory bureaus are specially designed for the three major camps. After moving out, what is left of the three major camps?
Could it be that this is a sign of the emperor's complete layoff of the three camps in the capital?
Chapter completed!
