Chapter 619: Separation of powers
Wang Tieniu hurriedly kowtowed: "The small ones don't dare, the small ones don't dare, the small ones are willing to win a hundred battles, so I told His Highness about this situation, your enemy is the army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, not these bitter haha, why bother to offend them, killing them is not a glorious thing, if the boat capsizes in the gutter, it is not worth it." β
Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "Wang Tieniu, let me teach you a truth, when you face the gentleman, you must follow him, don't try to reason with him, that will only cause him disgust, you know?" Are you willing to join the Ming Army? β
Wang Tieniu raised his head suddenly: "Willing!" The last general and several brothers also want to follow the last general. β
"You're going to climb the pole, and you're going to be the last one. Yang has wealth! β
"In!"
"This kid is a smart man, Jinyiwei's duty is to spy on me, give me a good tune~ teach him, I'm waiting for him to lead the guard camp."
Yang Youcai was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly responded: "Obey." "Regardless of whether this person is trustworthy or not, since His Highness has spoken, he has to listen to His Highness.
There is no way to persuade Yang Youcai to say anything about this kind of appointment, he is already in charge of Jinyiwei, and he is by His Royal Highness's side at any time, his authority is indeed a little big, whether this person is trustworthy or not, he has to arrange according to His Highness's words, what rebellious things did he do, Jinyiwei got conclusive evidence and then objected to His Highness It is not too late, but at this time, it must not be objected.
Of course, Cheng Xiaolian knew that doing this would make Yang Youcai have other thoughts, but there was no way to do it, Jin Yiwei is now dominant in the Ming family, and the reason why there have been a lot of mistakes in front of him is indeed the reason why Yang Youcai is too harsh, but the main reason is because there is no one to check and balance them.
They themselves are operating in the shadows, and their activities should not be checked and balanced, but the authority must be checked and balanced, and simply believing in the brand of Jinyiwei is easy to be smashed by this brand.
Cheng Xiaolian has been looking for this character, and originally thought that Hu Dadao might be okay, but Hu Dadao's mind was not here, besides, he was a person with a straight intestine, either let him cut others with a knife, or let him drink and eat meat with others, but it was very inappropriate for him to be hypocritical with others.
And this Wang Tieniu did this very well, so Cheng Xiaolian planned to sharpen him, if it was really that piece of material, it would be more suitable to be in charge of the guard.
When Emperor Taizu founded the country, the personal guard established Jinyiwei, the reason is that these people are his trusted brothers, but soon he found a huge flaw, these people are the Son of Heaven personal guard, and master the secrets of the country, if there are two hearts, the destruction is huge, so in the 20th year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu decreed the abolition of Jinyiwei.
It's a pity that during the Chengzu period, because the country was not right, he could only restart the Jinyi Guard, he was not afraid that these people would have the ability to destroy, because the biggest threat to him was in the people, so he left this sword to Daming, which can hurt others and hurt himself.
Yang Youcai is indeed an alternative in Jinyiwei, maybe his master understood the essence of Jinyiwei, so he instilled the glory of Jinyiwei in his mind, if there was no Cheng Xiaolian, it is estimated that this glory would have disappeared in the long river of history with the complete demise of the Ming Dynasty.
But Cheng Xiaolian appeared, Jinyiwei was able to recover, Yang Youcai is dedicated to the glory of Jinyiwei, but those people under him are recruited because they need to be recruited, and they have not been instilled by this kind of thinking since they were children, and it is not surprising that they have something in their hands to do something that damages Daming.
Therefore, Cheng Xiaolian wants to separate the Jinyi Guard from the Son of Heaven's personal guard, otherwise when the momentum of the Ming Dynasty has been achieved, it will be impossible to separate it again.
Of course, it's a long process, and it won't be logical until everyone gets used to it, and it's impossible to make such a big change from the start.
Wang Tieniu lay on the ground and immediately kowtowed three times when he heard this: "The subordinates will definitely live up to the general's trust!" "Of course he knows what kind of errand the guard battalion is, it is the general's absolute cronies, and it is a matter of raising his hand to get promoted and get rich when he enters here. He still doesn't know Cheng Xiaolian's true identity, otherwise it is estimated that he will be happy, and this position is the most important position in the center of the Ming Dynasty.
Yang Youcai is a smart person, and soon he figured out what Cheng Xiaolian meant, if there were people like him in Jinyiwei, of course he could kneel on the ground at this time and ask His Highness to take back his life, but the Jinyiwei rebellion just happened before almost killed His Highness's life, and he didn't have so much confidence.
If Jin Yiwei didn't have the information at the beginning, they wouldn't have defected to Tuhai so quickly, and if they didn't serve as His Highness's personal guard, then they wouldn't have almost killed His Highness, and the convergence of these two powers is really terrifying. Thinking of this, he glanced at Wang Tieniu lying on the ground, this person will become his main opponent within ten years, but he still has to save his life and teach him skills.
Yang Youcai even silently hoped that this kid was not a good person, and a good person would never be able to protect His Royal Highness.
Wang Tieniu's trembling shoulders explained to the people around him how excited he was now, and Second Uncle Sun looked at him and snorted coldly: "Tieniu, what's going on?" You are talking, can we survive? β
Wang Tieniu nodded heavily, and Brother Zhu breathed a sigh of relief: "Hey, since you have saved your life, what are you doing with this virtue?" Scared of the guts? β
"The general of the Ming Dynasty asked me to be his personal guard."
Second Uncle Sun understood in just a moment, and patted Wang Tieniu on the shoulder: "Boy, you are smoking from the ancestral grave!" I heard from the caravans in the past, the Ming court is not a miscellaneous bandit and grass bandit, they occupy the court of several provinces, if you follow the general as a personal guard, the future is not bright? β
Wang Tieniu nodded: "Second Uncle Sun, I told them that I would take you with me, and the general also promised to let me form my own team." β
Second Uncle Sun's face was overjoyed, and he shook his head heavily: "Tie Niu, you did something wrong in this matter. β
"Second uncle, what did I do wrong?"
"Look at how old am I, Second Uncle? It's almost sixty! If you are a general in battle, do you want a sixty-year-old man to be your personal guard? Your eldest brother Zhu is also over forty and half, we can't help you, you immediately go to the squatting army to pick people, it's best to be stunned for only half a year to enlist, and then you can stand up and speak in front of the general. β
"Second uncle, I'm not that kind of personγγγγγγ"
"Tie Niu, listen to me, your father and mother handed you over to me to let me take you to have a great future, but not to let me drag you down, this matter is so decided, hurry up and pick people, we people, it's good to be a janitor."
