Although Nanjing has a complete bureaucratic system, these bigwigs only enjoy treatment and do not undertake work. Because of their leisure and retirement, people call it "Liyin".

There are only three people who really have real power: one is the Secretary of the Ministry of War, the Secretary of the Nanjing Counsel, the Eunuch of the Nanjing Guard, and the Admiral Nanjing Military Affairs Minister.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War, Nanjing Counselor, was promoted from the Governor of the Grain Transportation Department. There are many people who want to go there easily in Jiangnan and cannot be easily taken.

As the name suggests, the admiral of Nanjing's military affairs ministers wanted the honorary ministers to take office. The crown prince was far away in Beijing and was not familiar with the honorary relatives in Nanjing. If some upstarts were sent to serve, they would not be convinced.

Only the eunuch in Nanjing was a royal private slave, and could be exchanged as he pleased. Moreover, the eunuch in garrison had the highest status. When he sat with the ministers and ministers, the Secretary of State could only sit at the top, but he could sit at the chairman, and he was the emperor's "relative minister three thousand miles away."

Now the eunuch in Nanjing is Han Zanzhou. This person is cautious and low-key. If he hadn't asked specifically, Zhu Cixuan wouldn't even know his name. However, it is not a time for nothing to be wrong and meritorious. Zhu Cixuan has no impression of Han Zanzhou, but he has plans for the position of eunuch in Nanjing.

"Captain of the Crown Prince is anyone?" Emperor Chongzhen asked coldly, also testing what Zhu Cilang wanted to do.

"This position should be used by close ministers, and my sons dare not argue." Zhu Cilang responded frankly.

Everyone was also quite surprised, and they suspected that the crown prince had insufficient experience and might have been a gunman for nothing!

If the outer court has various intrigues and complex relationships, the inner court is actually not inferior. Han Zanzhou must have his own group behind him. The crown prince did not care about him and was not afraid of offending others. It was a pity that he made a wedding dress for others for nothing.

"Oh." Emperor Chongzhen dragged his voice and looked at the two close eunuchs Wang Zhixin and Wang Chengen. These two were the old men he was in the residence. He was working diligently all the way to Shandong. No matter who can serve as the eunuch in Nanjing.

"The King's Heart," Emperor Chongzhen finally made up his mind: "You go to Nanjing to prepare for the matter of taking the horse. If Han Zanzhou comes back, he will listen."

The king was overjoyed and immediately responded: "I obey the order!"

Chongzhen nodded and said to Jiang Yueguang: "You go back early and tell the ministers of Nandu: You can go to the journey as soon as possible and listen to it!"

Jiang Yueguang had no choice but to answer the order.

Song Yingxing, who had been behind Jiang Yueguang, finally smiled on his face, which made Zhu Cixuan catch him. However, he was not worried that the crown prince would see it because he had decided to stay in the field and "listen". Compared to the job of a fifth-rank magistrate, the Technical College is obviously more interesting.

Zhu Cilang also had a smile on his face.

It is natural to appoint a new garrison eunuch, but everyone is looking at who will come up with it. As for whom the new garrison eunuch is, Zhu Cilang didn't care, because at present, the only ones around Chongzhen are Wang Zhixin and Wang Chengen. No matter who they ordered, Zhu Cilang was very satisfied.

Because no matter who leaves, there is another position that must be vacated: the imperial envoy, the Governor of the East Factory, the eunuch.

The reason why Zhu Cixuan had to take action personally and not let the ministers below talk for him was that only when he proposed to replace the eunuch in Nanjing, Emperor Chongzhen would worry about whether his son had made friends with his close servants. Therefore, Zhu Cixuan could restrain the lucky one: if he dared not follow the prince's wishes, then the prince would definitely speak more beautifully for him in front of the emperor.

Any smart person knows that even if you are not grateful to those who help you, you must not commit crimes and destroy them. Do you want to leave the emperor and become an uncrowned king in the prosperous Jiangnan area? Then just hand over the position of the factory minister.

As soon as Wang Zhixin left, Wang Chengen was naturally promoted to the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor. The eunuch in the East Factory should be the second or third-in-command of the Sili Supervisor. Wang Chengen naturally wanted to nominate a new factory minister, but this person was not recognized by Chongzhen.

"Ding Ao?" Chongzhen was quite surprised.

In front of him was a middle-aged eunuch with a low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. He had fair skin and very ordinary facial features. He would disappear if he intervened in the crowd.

"When did you enter the palace to be on duty?" Chongzhen did not have any impression of this little transparent person.

"Go back to the emperor," Ding Ao's voice was not unique. "I was a secret residence that I entered in the seventh year of Tianqi. I have been working in the East Factory under the name of Cao Gong Huachun."

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengen on the side in confusion.

Wang Chengen stepped forward and smiled, "The Emperor, Ding Ao is indeed the old man in the Qiandi Palace. He was only fifteen years old at that time and had never served the Emperor. I'm afraid the Emperor doesn't remember it."

Chongzhen nodded and said, "How many years have you been in Dongchang? Can you handle this situation now?"

"Go back to the emperor. I went to Dongchang in the first year of Chongzhen. It has been seventeen years since then. I dare not boast, but I will never lose in my loyalty and diligent work." Ding Ao replied.

Chongzhen nodded, as if he had allowed this personnel appointment.

Zhu Cixuan met Ding Ao half an hour later. He also praised the eunuch who had been working in the East Factory to work hard. As Ding Ao said, he did enter the palace at the age of thirteen, and went to the East Factory at the age of fifteen, staying until Lijing. The difference is that he had never been to Qiandi, nor was he under Cao Huachun, but Liu Ruoyu.

This time, Zhu Cilang used him to completely put the East Factory in his hands.

When there were only Zhu Cilang and Liu Ruoyu in the room, Zhu Cilang sighed: "I really can't bear it anymore." He said: "Foreign ministers say that the father is suspicious, but in fact, the father is actually a person who is easy to trust."

Liu Ruoyu had to admit this. He said, "The emperor is generous. If he is in the hands of the master of the Shimiao or the master of the temple, he may not be able to hide it."

Zhu Cixuan smiled and said tiredly: "I have someone under my command, who is really reliable, who is around my father? By the way, has Wang Zhixin said hello?"

Liu Ruoyu replied: "I have already pointed it out. He is not a fool, so he will definitely understand."

"That's good." Zhu Cilang nodded: "Shandong also needs to push the Lexia defense line out. The construction of various forts is piled up by silver. The silver in our hands is not something that fell from the sky. Wang Zhixin can help some in Jiangnan, and his ability to make money is ranked among the top in the world. Also, Donglu likes to use spies the most. After Ding Ao takes over the Dongchang, he must first clear Denglai and even Shandong, and second, he must cultivate successors with the school."

Liu Ruoyu nodded and asked again, "Your Highness, should you choose some fatherless and motherless boys to enter the palace from now on?"

Zhu Cixuan's eyebrows hopped and asked, "Ruoyu, if you don't have a purity, will you still be so loyal to the Tian family?"

Liu Ruoyu was quite puzzled: "Why did your highness come here to ask?"

"That's it," Zhu Ciyang said, "I think whether I can be loyal to the Lord, one is in teaching, and the other is in whether the Lord's family deserves loyalty. Therefore, I use people, only look at talents, not others. At the beginning, I lacked people, so I dispersed the eunuchs from the army to serve as coaches. Now it seems that the eunuchs are quite capable. If they are healthy and don't know how big a career they can do, it would be a pity to think about it."

Which eunuch is not inferior and self-pity? After hearing Zhu Cilang's words, Liu Ruoyu couldn't stop crying out and wiped it gently with the corner of his sleeve, saying, "The Qiansui Master is so kind, it is rare in his family today. It is always more convenient to serve the king in vain. Your Highness will have a big wedding in the future..."

Zhu Ciyang smiled disapprovingly and said, "Except for the prince's mansion, who else dares to use eunuchs? Could it be that all the wealthy families are not ashamed of their families? Besides, the people have experienced wars for a long time and are the time to use people. If we castrate a group of young people, how many people we have lost in ten years? What about twenty years? So we should just do this."

"The old minister is poor in the world, thank you for being kind!" Liu Ruoyu said emotionally.

"From me, I hired some healthy women as servants from the people, and those who serve outside will be purified." Zhu Cilang said, but thought to himself: Even eunuchs have lust. At that time, they will make food and vegetables fill the palace, which will make people feel more disturbed than those who have an affair.

Liu Ruoyu didn't know what Zhu Cilang was thinking, so he went out to do his own business soon. He is still responsible for the security and defense work of the Artillery Research Department - the small village where iron molded cannons were born - and dared not do his best.

Zhu Cixuan quickly focused on the layout of Shandong Province, thinking about how to directly and effectively control coal and iron ore and increase artillery equipment. (To be continued.
