Wang Jin also came from the bottom.
Naturally understand what they are thinking.
He immediately looked at everyone and said solemnly, "What is the East Factory? The East Factory is an important agency that monitors the court officials. It has the power to interrogate and punish officials and civilians who have committed serious crimes. It is solely responsible to the Emperor!"
"In other words, no one except Your Majesty can question the actions of the East Factory, and they can openly investigate any minister in the court!"
"If Li Fang allowed his relatives to encroach on the people's land, the East Factory can handle it with full authority. Now, do you know what the East Factory is?"
"Hiss~"
Everyone gasped when they heard this.
All those present were eunuchs from the inner court, not ordinary people.
After being influenced by what he saw and heard, he naturally understood what Wang Jin meant.
Especially since it only needs to be responsible to His Majesty the Emperor, the East Factory can almost be considered independent of other government offices.
As long as you work in the East Factory, your status and identity will be completely different from before.
Such as the Imperial Household Department, the Imperial Treasure Department, and even the Imperial Household Department.
Just talking about power.
It is completely incomparable to the East Factory.
Because the twelve inner court supervisors are only responsible for matters within the imperial palace.
But the East Factory can interfere with the previous dynasty and has the power to interrogate and handle cases independently. The two are completely incomparable!
However, at this time, Little Li, who was at the front, stepped forward slightly and asked in confusion, "Eunuch Wang, there's something I don't understand. It's about Li Fang. Why didn't Your Majesty hand it over to the Ministry of Justice or the Dali Temple, but instead set up the East Factory to conduct a thorough investigation?"
Everyone nodded, thinking that as long as His Majesty gave the order, the matter could be handled by these two yamen.
In this way, it complies with national laws and does not require any trouble.
But Your Majesty insisted on setting up a separate institution.
Although the East Factory also belongs to the inner court.
However, if this matter were to be reported to the previous dynasty, it would certainly cause some unnecessary trouble.
After all, the emergence of the East Factory will definitely infringe on the interests of certain officials, especially the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple. This is equivalent to decentralization!
"Actually, I didn't know why at first." Wang Jin thought for a moment and said, "But after careful consideration, I finally understood your majesty's intention. As I said before, your majesty doesn't trust the court officials."
"Just think about it, Li Fang is the former Vice Minister of the Cabinet, he has worked in the court for many years, and he has countless students and former officials."
"Even within the Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court, there are people he knows and is familiar with. If this matter is handed over to these two offices, what if someone, out of old friendship, tries to mitigate the problem?"
"Your Majesty is very busy with state affairs and has many things to do every day. How can he spare the time to deal with this matter?"
Wang Jin continued, "But we are different. We don't belong to any faction. His Majesty will definitely trust us more than the previous dynasty!"
Having said that, he felt a little uncomfortable.
It is said that His Majesty the Emperor is supreme and wealthy.
But what is the reality?
In addition to working hard every day, you also have to find ways to balance the forces of all parties.
Therefore, this made Wang Jin sincerely feel that he was the only one who could share the worries of His Majesty.
Upon hearing this, Little Li and the others suddenly understood and sighed, "So that's how it is. Your Majesty actually has it difficult too."
"Alright everyone, it's time to get down to business." Wang Jin looked at everyone and said, "I've said before that as long as you serve His Majesty, the opportunity to rise to prominence is right before you. Now, you've seized the opportunity. From today on, you're the top ten bosses of the East Depot!"
"His Majesty has allocated fifty men from the Imperial Camp. Each of you will be in charge of five men. Just report directly to me!"
"Don't underestimate the small number of people, but our East Factory is only in its initial stages. You will have more people under your command in the future."
"More importantly, if anyone does well, our family will reward them."
"For example, personally teaching you martial arts!"
He knew that in order to make his subordinates more loyal, he had to do more than just draw up a blueprint.
We must also provide the most practical benefits.
As for the position of Dangtou, it was a new idea of Wang Jin.
As for martial arts, although I don’t know much, I have it from my ancestors.
At worst, you can just be thick-skinned and ask for a few books, and then give out rewards, right?
His purpose in doing this was to let these people know that if they followed him and were loyal to His Majesty, their future would be bright.
Especially practicing martial arts, it definitely has a fatal attraction for eunuchs!
As expected, everyone present became excited upon hearing this, their eyes brightening. Without hesitation, they all bowed and said, "Thank you, Eunuch, for your support. We will serve Your Majesty and you wholeheartedly!"
If we say that joining the East Factory and becoming a head of the department is a change in one's status.
But if they do well and can practice martial arts, then it is equivalent to having a foothold. How can they not be excited?
"We understand what you all are thinking!" Wang Jin smiled, but his expression soon changed.
His tone also turned cold, and he continued, "But there is one unpleasant thing I must say upfront: the power of the East Depot all stems from the trust of Your Majesty."
"Now that you have entered the East Factory, you must remember to never abuse your power for personal gain or bend the law, or take advantage of your position to bully others!"
"If our family finds out, the consequences will be just like this table!"
As he spoke, Wang Jin exerted a little force with his right hand!
The wooden table beside him suddenly exploded and turned into dust.
Giving a sweet date and then a slap in the face is the best way to control subordinates.
"Yes, eunuch!" Upon seeing this, everyone lowered their heads, expressing that they would be loyal to their duties and would never abuse their power.
Wang Jin nodded upon seeing this and continued, "Next, our East Factory's top priority is to thoroughly investigate the Li Fang incident. Although we now know about this, we still need to go to Longyang Prefecture to obtain real evidence."
"The father-in-law is going to Longyang Mansion in person?" Little Lizi and others were shocked when they heard this.
I think that this matter can just be left to them.
After all, the East Factory has been established and has imperial guards under it.
Even if Li Fang still retains his former prestige.
But if he dared to resist.
That is an even greater crime.
"Of course." Wang Jin knew what they were thinking and said earnestly, "Your Majesty's new establishment of the East Factory is bound to cause dissatisfaction among the court officials. So at this time, we must make achievements to silence those officials."
"Also, Li Fang is the first case handled by our East Factory, so we can't be careless in any way!"
"We personally took action in order to make the East Factory famous."
"We must also tell everyone that His Majesty's decision is correct!"
Everyone nodded when they heard this.
Indeed, the East Factory was newly established.
The power that can be wielded is enormous.
Not only the censors, but I'm afraid that officials from the six ministries will also choose to submit memorials.
If the East Factory fails to perform as expected again at this time, Your Majesty will certainly face great pressure.
Only by achieving results can they suppress those doubts and dissatisfactions, which is also their most urgent task now!
