Chapter 450: By the Edict of the Son of Heaven, Punish the Thief!
Which eunuch is stronger, Daming Jingshi is looking for three factories.
Dongchang, that is, the Dongji Detective Factory, belongs to the Ming version of the privileged supervision agency, secret service and secret police agency.
In the 18th year of Yongle, Emperor Chengzu set up the Dongzhi Factory, headed by a close eunuch, and its branches reached as far as the Korean Peninsula, located in the north of Dong'anmen in Beijing.
The full name of the West Factory is "West Factory", which is the thirteenth year of Emperor Xianzong's Chenghua in addition to the East Factory, with the eunuch Wang Zhi as the commander, its power exceeds the East Factory, and the scope of activities from Beijing is all over the place.
Later, it was forced to revoke due to opposition. Zhengde was briefly reopened in the first year, and it was revoked five years later.
Xichang was directly under the orders of the emperor and was not subject to the control of any other institution or individual. As a short-lived spy agency, Xichang only had two commanders before and after, namely Wang Zhi and Gu Dayong.
Now, the West Factory finally has the third factory supervisor - Wei Zhongxian, the former governor of the East Factory, who was transferred to the West Factory after the reopening, and it is estimated that the fourth factory supervisor is Ma Shi.
As for the inner factory, there was only one factory supervisor in history - Liu Jin, and then the inner factory was cold, until Emperor Chongzhen reopened the inner factory, and the factory supervisor was served by Emperor Chongzhen's personal bodyguard and the eunuch of the imperial horse supervisor Dongfang Undefeated Fangzhenghua.
Among the three factories, the commanders and the big stall leaders were originally served by eunuchs, and the real people were all drawn from Jinyiwei, and after Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, the three factories began to develop their own manpower, and they were no longer called by Jinyiwei.
The only thing that still needs to be used by Jinyiwei is that the three factories do not have their own prisons, and Emperor Chongzhen does not allow them to have them, so the interrogation of prisoners or something, often needs to rely on the edict of Jinyi Weibei Zhenfusi.
In addition to some, most of the stalls in the three factories have been trained by the Imperial Horse Supervisor - specially trained on how to cut people, plant stolen goods, and detect, so no matter how the three factories look at civil officials like tilapia, even the Jinyi guards are regarded as five scum.
Ma Shi doesn't need to be trained, after all, the original pass guard, no matter what, he has a little bit of kung fu on his body, and it's okay to cut people or something.
The weather of Xinming Island is rare to have a good weather, although the sun is far away, the temperature seems to have been blocked back by the snow on the ground that reflects the white light, but such a windless, and sunny weather, in winter Xinming Island is also rare.
Outside the city named Xin'an City by Zhu Yujian and several other scumbags, a high platform has been built, the platform is nine zhang high, and Ma Shi has arrived on the platform early.
Offstage, Shang Jixing, who had been taught etiquette, had changed into the dress of the Ming people, and was honestly waiting for the canonization ceremony to begin, and behind Shang Jixing, there were more than 20,000 of his clansmen, waiting for this sacred ceremony.
Outside, there were seven Ming vassal kings such as Zhu Yujian, sitting on the stool with a smile, waiting for the canonization ceremony to begin, and outside were the Ming soldiers in full armor.
A slight cold wind blew, enveloping the Mingzi banner at the highest point of the platform, and the slightly shorter seven banners of Tang, Qin, Qing, Gui, Zhou, Rui, and Hui also moved, making a fierce sound.
Ma Shi looked up at the sky, the sun was already hanging in the middle, the time had reached noon, and the auspicious time for the canonization ceremony had arrived.
With the sound of three cannons, under the signal of the officials specially sent by the Ministry of Rites in the audience, Shang Jixing also began to slowly ascend to the high platform.
The high platform is nine feet high, nine hundred and eighty-one steps, Shang Jixing has taken every step steadily-from today onwards, he will be able to sit on an equal footing with the guys before, and no one on this Xinming Island dares to underestimate himself!
After coming to Ma Shi, Ma Shi smiled slightly: "If you have a purpose, Shang Jixing will accept it." ”
Ma Shi's voice was not as sharp as the voice of an ordinary eunuch, but it was full of depth.
As Ma Shi's voice fell, Shang Jixing also lifted his robe, knelt on the ground, and shouted in extremely awkward Chinese: "Minister, Shang Jixing, congratulations to my emperor long live long live." ”
For Shang Jixing, the meaning of these words is actually half-understood, but this is not important, the important thing is that after today, his identity has changed.
After Shang Jixing knelt on the ground, Ma Shi unfolded the holy decree and sang: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Shang Jixing and his subordinates are not subordinate, and they will be punished!" Chin this! ”
That's it?
Shang Jixing was still a little confused, didn't the Ming official say that the holy decree should be read for a while, it doesn't matter if he understands it or not, but don't forget to thank him?
As soon as he lowered his body, before he could shout the word minister, Shang Jixing felt a chill on his neck, and then his eyes were dark, and he didn't know anything.
Shang Jixing's head rolled a few times on the high platform, and Ma Shi handed the long knife that was still dripping with blood in his hand to the captain of the Jinyi Guard behind him, and shouted: "By order, crusade against the minister!" ”
Ma Shi's voice had not yet fallen, and Li Hongji, who was not very far away from the audience, shouted: "By order, crusade against the minister!" ”
As the sound of the crusade against the ministers continued to sound, the Ming soldiers around the high platform all drew their knives in their hands and rushed towards Shang Jixing's clansmen.
Thanks to Li Hongji's help to Shang Jixing kill the other barbarians on Xinming Island, there are about 20,000 barbarians in the entire Shang Jixing Department now, which is much more than before, and they are all watching the ceremony from the audience at this time.
However, when there are more people, people's hearts are mixed, unlike at the beginning, they were all people in the same clan, and the hearts of the people were more aligned.
The change was abrupt, and many people were confused and didn't react to what was going on - didn't they say that the head of their own family wanted to get benefits?
Among those who have reacted, some want to resist, some want to escape, and some simply choose to kneel and beg.
However, it was useless to kneel and beg to surrender, and the Ming soldiers who had received the order shouted in their mouths to crusade against the unsubordinate, and the long knives were still waving towards the necks of these people.
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty used the heads of the people all over the ground to prove how sharp the long knives produced by the Ming Royal Arsenal in their hands were.
As the screams began, and the sound of long knives breaking through the air kept sounding, there were more and more human heads and headless corpses on the ground, and the blood and water were flowing more and more, and it became a little sticky and slippery when walking with their feet raised.
But this doesn't matter, the important thing is that there are fewer and fewer barbarians, and it will take a few more hours, and it is estimated that they will be able to be strangled cleanly.
In the future, this Xinming Island can be free to wave, and the people of Daming will no longer have to worry about running into barbarians when they go out - damn it, these barbarians are poor and crazy, and they want to grab everything they see.
However, the courage of the barbarians is big, and it is useless to kill one or two birds at all, and they still rob what should be robbed, and often they will kill people after robbing.
The word murder is most appropriate for them.
This made the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty very unhappy - this is not good, the things of the people of the Ming Dynasty can be robbed by you? I didn't dare to rob it myself, so it's your turn?
The unhappy soldiers did not have the slightest softness, as long as they brought a hand, they were all within the scope of beheading, regardless of age.
As for the women, they can survive - there are a lot of singles among the people of Daming, everyone will share a point, and then transport it back to Daming to sell a part of it, and it will be almost the same, and it will not set off any waves.
A killing has just ended from noon to the end of the day, and there are already cries and screams around the high platform, but there are no screams.
Ma Shi nodded with satisfaction, and then slowly walked down from the high platform, bowed down to Zhu Yujian and the others, and said, "Your Highness, are you all clean?" ”
At this time, Zhang Jianying, who was in charge of the entire killing operation, came over and arched his hand: "Lord Qiqi, everything has been cleaned up." ”
Zhu Yujian nodded and asked, "How are my soldiers?" Are there any casualties? ”
Zhang Jianying, who looked dark, grinned, and his mouth was full of white teeth: "Lord Qiqi, there are no casualties among my Ming soldiers, but a few unlucky ones slipped and fell by blood and water, and their feet were broken, and the most unlucky one was stabbed in the butt by the knife of the person behind, and there is nothing left." ”
"It's really a bloody battle, my Ming soldiers are fearless of casualties, go forward one after another, and finally strangle these damn barbarians."
When Ma Shi's voice came, Zhu Yujian was overjoyed and said, "Thank you Ma Gonggong soon!" ”
Zhang Jianying was not stupid, and hurriedly arched his hand towards Ma Shi and said, "Thank you father-in-law for cultivating!" ”
Ma Shi laughed twice and said: "Don't mind, my old horse used to lead troops to fight, and it is not easy to know that the brothers are not easy, this matter has to be reported like this, otherwise this credit will be lost by three points." ”
And after returning to the capital, Ma Shi sold Zhu Yujian and Zhang Jianying: "Those barbarians are really vulnerable, except for the women who stayed, the rest were strangled in one hour."
His Royal Highness King Tang fought bloodily, a few of them broke their feet, and one of their buttocks was accidentally injured by their own people, and the rest were intact. ”
Then Emperor Chongzhen casually threw the battle report aside, and ordered with a smile: "The edict of the celebrant is drafted, and the meritorious person will be rewarded." ”
Those who have merit are rewarded, but what about those who have faults? Emperor Chongzhen didn't mention it at all, that was something that Tang King Zhu Yujian and a few of them should be concerned about.
As for themselves, there are many issues to be concerned about, such as the rations of the people of the Ming Dynasty.
If it weren't for the fact that he had been buying food since the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Emperor Chongzhen would have the intention of jumping off the building now.
And thanks to the fact that sweet potatoes have been fully planted in Shaanxi, and there are wells drilled in various places, no matter how dry Shaanxi is, in fact, there will be no more starvation to death.
But it's troublesome to eat too much, so you can't eat it as a meal every day, right?
Therefore, we still have to continue to subsidize grain to Shaanxi, and then distribute sweet potatoes to other prefectures and counties.
There are farts to put together!
In addition to these, there is another thing that Emperor Chongzhen is very concerned about, because this matter is related to the question of how much silver he has in his pocket.
Rose water is a good thing, but it's a pity that until the Romans got cold, this thing was not carried forward, let alone spread to the Central Plains, so Emperor Chongzhen had a chance.
Perfume, that's a good thing. Men can't stand it with women, and women can't stand it with men. Men and women together? The bed can't stand it!
Besides, Emperor Chongzhen had read the relevant textbooks when he was training at the traverser training base in his previous life, no matter which guy traveled back to ancient times, he would get perfume, and the manufacture of perfume had become a compulsory course for traversers.
Isn't it just some alcohol, plus flower petals, and then steamed out or what?
Well, Emperor Chongzhen admits that he is a little unlearned, at least he has not even memorized the compulsory courses such as perfume and the manufacturing method of soap.
But it doesn't matter, you just need to know the general idea.
For example, perfume must use flower petals, and this can't be wrong.
As for whether it is steamed, boiled or dried, how to mix it with alcohol, and what is the proportion, then this matter is naturally a headache for the little eunuchs, and the emperor still needs to know this?
In the same way, it's the same with soap, it doesn't matter if you can't make it yourself, but things like pig pancreas, lard and alkali must be used, and plant ash seems to have it, right?
It doesn't matter, as long as you know that there is lard and alkali, the rest is also thrown to the little eunuchs to find a way to solve it.
And the dead eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty are really powerful.
Admiral Cao Huachun's Dongchang first mixed lead powder into the salt and sold it all over the grassland and Liaodong, and then the Fushou paste refined by these dead eunuchs has now become a godsend for the nobles and ordinary people in Liaodong, and the oil squeezed from cottonseeds is also sold out in various ways.
Of course, these three things are exclusively for export, not for domestic sales.
It's not that no one doesn't believe in evil, such as Fushou ointment, this thing is secretly planted by the people and then sold privately, and even some people secretly mix this kind of thing into normal cigarettes.
However, there is no use for birds, and whether the noses of Jinyiwei and the East and West factories are effective or not depends entirely on the emperor's attitude.
When the emperor is determined to do something, the factory guards will use practical actions to tell the world what is more sensitive than a dog's nose and what is ruthless.
Under the high pressure of nearly 20,000 heads falling to the ground in the entire Ming Dynasty and more than 100,000 people being exiled, the poppy has been eliminated by the people themselves, except for medicinal use.
Although the silver is good, it also needs to be spent on life.
Anyway, Emperor Chongzhen's meaning is very simple, if you want to smoke, no problem, it doesn't matter what kind of first-hand smoke and second-hand smoke, no one cares if this thing is willing to smoke to death.
But Fushou paste is not good, no matter whether you eat it or smoke it, anyway, whoever you find to plant it will cut off their head and exile the whole family.
There are no conditions or reasons, in short, this thing is not allowed to have any other uses close to smoking except for medicinal use, otherwise one case will be found and one case will be disposed of.
Now the dead eunuchs in the East Factory have figured out the perfume thing, what is this?
This is the silver of albino flowers, think about the body odor of those barbarians in the West who don't take a bath......
