Chapter 161 If the Son of Heaven Lives Up to Me, I Will Not Live Up to the Son of Heaven
In the side hall of Daming Palace——
Emperor Chongping was still sitting behind the table, commanding the eunuch at the side, saying: "Go and prepare some lunch, I'm a little hungry."
"Slave obeys the order." The eunuch at the side quickly took the order and left.
When Jia Heng heard the words, his face was terrified, and he said in a trembling voice: "The Holy Majesty takes care of all kinds of affairs every day, and eats clothes and food, and the minister Fadeng hears the drums. If you disturb the Holy Majesty's lunch, you will be punished by death."
Emperor Chongping waved his hand and said, "You can't disturb me, and no one can disturb me! Tell me, what's going on?"
Jia Heng's lips moved, and he was about to speak, but Emperor Chongping said softly:
"Come here, move a Jindun for Jia Ziyu."
At this time, an inner prisoner quickly turned out from the side and moved a Jindun.
Jia Heng didn't dare to sit down, so he sorted out his thoughts, faced the scrutiny of Emperor Chongping, and told the truth, he suspected that Qiu Liang and Jia She were connected, took revenge on himself, and even never concealed the fact that Dong Qian was his cousin , said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, when I was surprised to hear this, I felt furious! Heng lost his father when he was young, and grew up with his cousin. Beating and maiming, what face does Heng have to stand between heaven and earth! Heng knows that he has violated the Sacred Heart, and asks the Holy One to punish him."
He has just seen the tricks of Emperor Chongping, and he has already seen deeply that in front of this emperor, it is best not to play that kind of scheming, instead of waiting for others to slander him, saying that he made a big fuss because of his cousin, go Farden heard the drums, it would be better for him to eliminate this hidden danger in advance.
Emperor Chongping heard the words, his expression was silent, he stared at Jia Heng for a long time, and asked, "Are you sure it was Qiu Liang who did it?"
Hearing this, Jia Heng breathed a sigh of relief. With a calm face, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I am sure that this person must have done it. Fan Yi offended a small official from Wucheng Bingmasi, and that's why he was beaten and maimed in revenge." , Qiu Liang is the official of the Wucheng Army and Horse Division, how can he not know? Before entering the palace, I have already asked Qu Lang, a hundred households of the Jinyiwei, who knows the Dongcheng gang very well. According to him, the Dongcheng gang is entrenched For a long time, that generation's hands and eyes are open to the sky, and their connections are so wide that even the Jinyi in Jinyiwei's mansion has someone who secretly read the song for him. When I heard about it, I was horrified and unbelievable."
When Emperor Chongping heard the words, his expression turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "The soldiers and horses of the five cities, and the Jinyi Mansion, really have hands and eyes all over the sky!"
The state government and the gangs of the rivers and lakes are colluding, colluding, beating and mutilating candidates for the exam, and even infiltrating the Jinyi Mansion. The last item, this is the big event that touches the bottom line!
As for the political tide, it seems that the turmoil is very high, but Emperor Chongping insisted on his own power, with a holy heart, and watched the struggle between the three parties with a cold eye, and he would not feel overwhelmed.
Although he felt that Jia Heng was young, but after listening to what he said just now, in a flash, he felt that he was young, his conduct was simple and simple, and he still had the heart of a child.
After all, he is a teenage boy, and his family is beating and hurting him, which is full of affection.
From this point of view, it was Jia Heng who set up the senses for the people of Emperor Chongping too well at the beginning.
Sentimental and righteous, courageous and wise, he would rather bend than bend, upright rather than straight.
Previously, through the secret spy investigation of the inner factory, the details of the conflict between Jia Heng and the Ningrong Second Mansion were summarized into words and placed on Emperor Chongping's desk.
Because his wife, the Qin family, was missed by Jia Zhen, he rose up to resist Jia Zhen. When he offered advice and accepted the title, he refused to accept it.
Sometimes, one thing is inconspicuous, but when several things are added together, the image aggregation effect is obvious.
The image of a young hero who is brave, steadfast and fearless of power appears in front of Emperor Chongping.
If you really want to learn from Han Huang, spring wind transforms rain, moistens things silently, Emperor Chongping will only give birth to this son who is so scheming at a young age, if he is older, it will be okay?
Of course, it can't be really stunned and young, not knowing how to advance or retreat.
And there is another place that Emperor Chongping, as an emperor, is unwilling to admit in the deepest part of his heart. The more outspoken he is, the more people he will offend, so he can only rely on the holy family.
In the future, look at this son's aspirations again, if his aspirations change, once the holy family is gone, they will attack in groups, he can take care of it calmly, and will not leave future troubles for his successors and grandchildren.
Emperor Chongping thought for a moment, looked at Jia Heng, and said, "What strategy do you plan to take to control the banditry in the East City?"
Jia Heng pondered and said: "I think you should prescribe the right medicine. The chaos in Dongcheng was caused by the people from Shandong, Henan, and Shaanxi provinces going to Shenjing to seek a living in recent years. Many people's origins are unknown, and the household registration management is chaotic. They can only rely on the gangs to live. , As a result, the law and order deteriorated. The minister thought that the first thing to do was to eliminate the gangs, and then implement the policy of protecting the armor. Register the household registration, and then recruit the young and strong with good conduct, strict discipline, and patrolling the law and order. The military, the military, and the new army will be trained to prepare."
The best social policy is the best criminal policy.
The reason why Dongcheng has gradually become the city of Shenjing is that there have been frequent disasters in recent years, and more people have gone to the city of Shenjing to seek livelihood, while the supporting systems such as pension relief and people's livelihood security provided by the imperial court are insufficient.
The people at the bottom form gangs, and the law and order gradually deteriorates.
The emergence of dynamic social organizations quickly filled the power vacuum at the grassroots level in the community.
Of course, the failure of grassroots governance is due to the fact that there is no money and can only be left to its own devices, and the second is that the governance efficiency is low and the cost of governance is high.
This management cost is not only money and food, but also talents, high-quality talents, who are unwilling to sink into low officials, because they may be welded there for a lifetime.
The grassroots cannot attract talents, so they can only pick and choose, entrusting public security, sanitation, and taxation to the villagers.
Now it is time to find a way to restore grassroots governance and eradicate gangsters and evil.
"But you want to train a new army?" Emperor Chongping's eyes lit up, but he remembered Jia Heng's previous talk about training a new army.
It has to be said that the phrase "The Army of the Son of Heaven" left a deep impression on Emperor Chongping's heart.
No one can refuse an army that is completely loyal to them.
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said: "My lord, this is not the official military system of the country. It does not consume money and food from the household department, and does not need the military department to provide ordnance for the time being. It is a reserve service. If the sage wants to build a new army in the future, I should choose the elite for the sage. Prepare to build."
There are many out-of-town people in Dongcheng who go to Shenjing to make a living. They must hate the gang forces. Can quickly gather people's hearts.
"What is the name for the establishment? If another new army is raised, this matter will probably attract great criticism." Emperor Chongping's complexion moved slightly, a little bit tempted, but he felt that the few grand scholars might not agree too much.
Because this is undoubtedly a fresh start, this kind of turmoil is no less than a political tide.
Emperor Chongping pondered for a moment, and said: "Nowadays, the Wucheng Bingma Division has the function of public security and arrest, and there are often conflicts with the governor of Jingzhao Mansion. Setting up another Yasi Division will be suspected of overlapping. Now you raise five points. The commander of the city soldiers and horses should think about the strategy of governance and stability."
Jia Heng thought for a while, and finally suppressed the word "urban management", and said: "The dispute between the government and the division is due to the unclear responsibilities. The responsibility of trial and investigation was originally divided into two. For reconnaissance, Ju Qiao, the head of Jingzhao Law Department, will convict. After the minister, he will temporarily set up a patrol superintendent in Dongcheng as an experiment. In Lifang, each police station will be set up, and young and strong soldiers will be stationed there to patrol the streets, police bandits, and register household registration. For the time being, I will be affiliated with the five city soldiers and horses."
When Emperor Chongping heard the words, he was silent for a moment, and murmured: "Superintendent of patrol? Police patrol, it's simple and appropriate, but you want to change the system of five-city soldiers and horses?"
Jia Heng paused, and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Shengming, today's five-city soldiers and horses not only have to patrol and arrest thieves, but also clean up the streets, as well as fire prevention and tax collection... I think the responsibilities are very chaotic, and they should be divided into divisions. Under the Five Cities Military Division, we can set up a Public Security Division, a Fire Control Division, a Police Patrol Division, and a Taxation Division..."
It can be said that the Yamen of the Wucheng Bingma Division originally had five divisions. Since the second year of Longzhi, the five divisions have been merged into one. set command.
Of course, in the words of later generations, this is called strengthening the joint force of administrative law enforcement and promoting comprehensive law enforcement.
Emperor Chongping thought for a while, and said: "This matter is related to the power of the government secretary. When Xu Lu comes over, you can discuss it with him."
The dispute between the government and the ministers, since the former Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, Sun Liangchen, and the commander of the Wucheng Army and Horse Division, has caused a lot of turmoil. Then, in order to reproduce similar things, Emperor Chongping even suspended the commander. .
Jia Heng nodded.
At this time, the inner prison outside also prepared lunch and served it over. Emperor Chongping looked gently and said, "Ziyu also use some?"
When Jia Heng heard this, she looked grateful, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I have had lunch and I am not hungry."
Emperor Chongping let go of his hands, smiled lightly, and said, "It's okay to use less. It's a bit boring for me to eat alone."
Seeing Emperor Chongping's insistence, Jia Heng's expression showed sincerity and fear, and he said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
What kind of grace is it to dine at the same table with the emperor?
After Jia Heng took his seat, for a while, he didn't even dare to pick up his chopsticks.
Emperor Chongping glanced at Jia Heng, and said in a warm voice: "Since you have eaten lunch, it seems that you should not eat too much. This plate of peach blossom cakes is made by the queen herself. You can try it."
This emperor is also well versed in the art of winning people's hearts, and now he regards Jia Heng as his son and nephew.
Jia Heng looked grateful and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
As he said, he picked up a piece of peach blossom cake with chopsticks, put it in a porcelain bowl, took a small bite, and chewed, he felt sweet and delicious, soft and not greasy.
"How?" Emperor Chongping asked.
Jia Heng put the peach blossom cakes in the jade bowl, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said sincerely: "I have never eaten such delicious peach blossom cakes in this life."
It has to be said that this Empress Song, who has only heard her name but never seen her, has superb craftsmanship.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongping said with a smile on his cold and majestic face, "It's delicious, just eat a few more pieces."
Looking at this young man now, he felt more and more fond of him.
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I dare you, can you let me wrap up two yuan, and bring it to my wife to taste when I get home."
What is boasting, don't talk about delicious food floating in the clouds, superb cooking skills, Emperor Chongping, as an emperor, has never heard of flattery, but only this kind of humble words, but I can feel a sense of sincerity, simplicity Nothing fancy.
When Emperor Chongping heard the words, the smile on his face became more prosperous, and he said with a smile: "You use it first, this plate is all yours, and if you can't finish the rest, just take it back."
This young man is indeed a man of kindness and kindness, and it is not in vain for him to show his kindness.
Except when he was in the hidden mansion, and now facing several cabinet ministers, he has not met such a young man for many years.
The emperor did not believe in eating without talking, but talking while eating, and asked: "Zi Yu led the army of the Beijing camp to suppress the bandits before, what do you think of the strength of the army of the Beijing camp?"
Jia Heng put down his chopsticks and said loudly: "To tell you the truth, when I arrived at the capital camp, Niu Jizong's generals were disorganized and their combat strength was weak. If all the imperial troops are of this generation, I will be worried for the Holy One."
"But when Cuihua Mountain suppressed the bandits earlier, how could it be decided?" Emperor Chongping put down his chopsticks and said solemnly when he heard the words.
Jia Heng smiled wryly, and said: "It's just that under heavy rewards, there must be brave men."
After speaking, he talked about the heavy pensions and rewards.
"I've heard about this matter. It's your first time leading an army. I don't know the past regulations on pensions. The rewards are set higher. It's okay. It's not a bad reputation to cherish soldiers. It's just that you are still young. In the future, you need to consider leading the army and coordinating the army. There must be more in every aspect, it must not be like this." Emperor Chongping said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Jia Heng's eyes turned red, and he left the table to worship, bowed his head and said: "The sage taught me to repent, look at me with kind eyes, I am afraid and grateful, I don't know what to say..."
It was a meal, and a gentle instruction, if he was standing there stupidly stuffing something into his mouth, then his head was caught by the door.
And he couldn't just be grateful when he gave the meal, because it was too unnatural. Instead, at this time, with the gentle words in his mouth, he was suddenly moved and saw the truth.
There is a feeling of being broken.
The so-called adult will not be crushed by the hardships of life day after day. On the contrary, one day, when he entered the door, he accidentally touched his toe by a chair, and suddenly burst into tears.
Seeing this scene, Emperor Chongping was also stunned for a while, his majestic and dignified face softened, and the gentleness in his eyes became more gloomy, and said: "Ziyu, get up."
Jia Heng got up slowly, suppressing his "surging" mood, as if he was worried that the emperor would see it, he turned his head slightly, "hold back" the crystal tears in his eyes, and said with a little choking: "Thank you Your Majesty."
As a ruler, Emperor Chongping's ability to perceive words and expressions is so superb, he was keen to capture this scene, and his heart was a little shaken, and he sighed in his heart, "After all, he is still a child."
"Sit down and have dinner with me." Emperor Chongping greeted.
At this time, Jia Heng was busy and thanked, and sat down again, feeling a little relieved from the bottom of his heart.
The negative impact of the dung explosion just now has finally been completely eliminated.
Since he had offended the Qi Dang faction headed by Yang Guochang, he needed to seek compensation from the holy family, otherwise, he would not be able to withstand the turmoil of the Qi Dang gang.
As for Cai just now, if the tears were to flow, they would be worthless.
Especially since he has always shown his strength to others, this tear must not be shed.
The man didn't flick his tears lightly, and they rolled in his eyes, which made him more sincere and moving.
"People are ups and downs in the officialdom, and they can't help themselves. They can only protect themselves like this... However, if the emperor does not fail me, I will not fail the emperor."
Jia Heng picked up the chopsticks and suppressed the thoughts in his heart.
