Chapter 4: Building the East Factory and Favoring Daji



evening.

Ever since he possessed the Holy King Body bestowed by the divine artifact.

Ying Yuan then possessed a kind of divine power.

It directly elevated him to the level of a martial arts master.

Now, the other items in the novice gift package have also arrived.

For example, the imperial seal was replaced with the imperial seal.

Inscribed on it are eight large characters: "Received the Mandate from Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosper."

It looks pretty good.

But this thing can suppress the country's destiny!

If the national fortune had not been lost, I am afraid that the national strength of the Qin Dynasty would have prospered!

This made Ying Yuan very helpless.

"I don't know what's going on with Cao Cao."

Ying Yuan was a little impatient.

Once he has complete control of the army, he will launch a palace coup, right?

He is using the emperor to control his ministers!

This looks so tempting, take action quickly!

What are you waiting for?

Restore your glory as Emperor Wu of Wei!

"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner."

Just when Ying Yuan was full of anticipation, a voice sounded in his ears.

With memories of his previous life, he was quite familiar with this voice.

Wei Zhongxian?

One of the predecessor's personal eunuchs?

As the Minister of the Imperial Chariots, Zhao Gao's main responsibility was to accompany the emperor during his activities.

For example, morning court, outings, etc.

Wei Zhongxian was responsible for taking care of the emperor's daily life.

When thinking of that name, Ying Yuan suddenly became excited.

This is the famous Nine Thousand Years Old!

He excluded dissidents, dictated state affairs arbitrarily, usurped power, stole state funds, framed loyal and good people, and took human lives lightly. He was as cruel as a wolf or a tiger!

This is a traitor to the country!

If Jiu Qian Sui is not a traitor, then who is?

Yes, this person needs to be reused.

Suddenly, he had a bold idea!

"Zhongxian, how long have you been following me?" Ying Yuan asked.

Wei Zhongxian bowed his head and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I have been with you for five years."

When Ying Yuan was still the crown prince, he followed him around and served him wholeheartedly.

"Five years...it's not long, but it's not short either. You've worked hard and made great contributions."

Ying Yuan chuckled.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Zhongxian knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I have received great favor from the Emperor. It is only natural for me to work for Your Majesty. How can I say that I have worked hard and achieved great success?"

Hearing this, Ying Yuan sneered.

If I hadn't known long ago that you were the famous Ninth Prince, I would have believed that you were a loyal minister.

In fact, throughout Wei Zhongxian's life, he was loyal to the Ming imperial family and never had any second thoughts.

Even in the end, when the new emperor ascended the throne and needed to kill him to appease the court officials, he never said a word and even chose to commit suicide.

In his heart, there is only one principle.

He did whatever the emperor asked him to do.

He was just a eunuch, and the eunuchs' power came from the emperor.

Unlike civil and military ministers, even if they lose their official positions and titles, they will still be taken care of by their colleagues.

If the eunuchs lost the emperor's support, what awaited them would be the weapons of military generals and the spit of civil officials.

"If I say you have made meritorious contributions, then you have made meritorious contributions. I plan to follow the example of the previous dynasty and set up factory guards to monitor all officials. They can arrest subjects at will without going through the laws of the three courts. In addition, I am appointing you as the eunuch in charge of ceremonies and writing. I wonder if you can shoulder this heavy responsibility?" Ying Yuan said earnestly.

Wei Zhongxian was stunned when he heard the voice.

Factory guards?

Supervise all officials?

No need for approval from the three departments?

This...what a great power!

I didn't expect that His Majesty would trust me so much!

This is a great opportunity for me to make a fortune, I must seize it!

Thinking of this, he kowtowed without hesitation and said, "Your Majesty, I accept your command and will shoulder the heavy responsibility of the factory guards, acting as your eyes and ears and supervising all officials!"

Ying Yuan nodded contentedly.

Although there was the Chu army outside and Cao Cao in charge of the military inside, the country was on the verge of destruction.

But he didn't mind adding fuel to the fire.

Setting up factory guards is better than nothing.

By that time, the world will say that I am a foolish and tyrannical ruler because of the existence of the Censorate!

By then, people all over the country will inevitably rise up in rebellion.

In this way, he could also safeguard his plan to destroy the country.

Wonderful.

"I've already decided on a name for this factory guard. It's called the East Factory. It will have a thousand people under its jurisdiction, all of whom will have official positions. As for who to choose to join the East Factory, it's up to you. If you need money, you can transfer it from the inner treasury."

Ying Yuan spoke.

Wei Zhongxian was flattered.

Can I choose anyone I want to join the East Factory?

Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that I will appoint people based on personal connections?

Or does Your Majesty have complete trust in me?

If that is the case, I must not let down your Majesty's trust in me!

You must do your best to complete this task!

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will live up to your high expectations!"

Wei Zhongxian was so moved by Ying Yuan's trust that he almost cried.

He never imagined that one day, he, a eunuch, would be in power!

This is the supreme grace of the emperor!

Ying Yuan was afraid that he would not be able to do his best to capture and kill people, which would quickly ruin the reputation of the East Factory and himself, so he slowly said:

"Don't worry, as long as you work for me with peace of mind, not only you but also your family will benefit."

Wei Zhongxian was startled and kowtowed quickly, saying, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I know what to do."

Your Majesty is warning me.
