The emperor’s favor is mighty, the emperor’s favor is mighty Han Zanzhou, the eunuch in charge of the Royal Horse Supervisor, was deeply moved when he learned that the emperor had entrusted him with the task of rebuilding the inner factory.
He kowtowed to the emperor three times and vowed to live up to the emperor's expectations.
No wonder Han Zanzhou was so excited.
You must know that the emperor and his courtiers are the same, especially for slaves like them in the inner palace.
Liu Chuanzong was an old man who had served the emperor when he was in the East Palace.
It is not surprising that the new emperor succeeded him to become the Supervisor of Ceremonies and supervise the East Factory.
As for Han Zanzhou, he was able to be promoted from Nanjing garrison eunuch to royal horse eunuch, even he couldn't believe it.
You must know that the Royal Horse Prison is an extremely important institution among the Twelve Prisons.
It controls part of the imperial army and is second only to the Si Li Prison.
It is precisely because the Yuma Jian has military power that this position has always been held by the emperor's confidants.
During the Chenghua period, the great eunuch Wang Zhi was appointed as the imperial eunuch by Emperor Xianzong, and he founded Xichang, which temporarily dominated the government and the public.
Now, although the emperor has not rebuilt the west factory, he has to rebuild the inner factory.
This job has been given to Han Zanzhou.
How could he not like it?
If he only had the reputation of being a eunuch with the royal horse supervisor's seal, he might not be as good as Liu Chuanzong, who supervised the Dongchang with the title of the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
However, if the title of an internal factory owner is added, Han Zanzhou will think that he is not inferior to Liu Chuanzong.
People are very ambitious, and eunuchs are also human beings, so naturally they are not exempt from vulgarity.
Han Zanzhou naturally hopes that one day he can become the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department and become the number one person in the inner prison.
But the road has to be walked step by step.
The first thing Han Zanzhou has to do is to complete the errands entrusted to him by the emperor.
Compared with the past, the power of the inner factory to be rebuilt this time has been greatly increased.
It is not only responsible for investigating the internal affairs of Yingtian Mansion, but also expanded its scope to the whole country, including the areas occupied by the Puppet Huns and the Puppet Qing Dynasty.
The emperor made it clear that he would set up a military intelligence department within the inner factory, which would be responsible for collecting intelligence in various counties of the government, including enemy-occupied areas.
Han Zanzhou naturally attached great importance to this.
In his opinion, the emperor rebuilt the inner factory because he was worried about the east factory.
Since ancient times, the emperor's emphasis has been on checks and balances.
Both Dongchang and Jinyiwei were eagle dogs raised by the emperor, but if the pair of eagle dogs were too united, the emperor would naturally not be at ease.
Han Zanzhou knew his role very well.
The reconstruction of the inner factory was aimed at the east factory.
And he was a dog raised by the emperor.
He would bite whomever the emperor asked him to bite.
Even if the emperor asked him to bite the admiral of Dongchang or the commander of Jinyiwei, he would not hesitate at all.
The Warriors Camp and the Tengxiang Four Guards were the emperor's own troops, but their combat effectiveness was far less than before after Wanli.
During the Chongzhen Dynasty, the Warriors Camp and the Tengxiang Four Guards were reorganized into the new Yongwei Camp.
The leading generals include Zhou Yuji, Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong.
This emperor's personal army, which was directly under the Imperial Horse Supervisor, repeatedly performed extraordinary feats and played an important role in fighting against Li Zicheng and other bandits as well as the Qing army.
But because of the two-front battle, it was eventually dragged down.
In the end, Sun Yingyuan and Zhou Yuji died in the battle, and only Huang Degong's Yongwei camp, which was suppressing the Western traitor Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan at that time, survived.
It stands to reason that Huang Degong's Yongwei Camp should be under the jurisdiction of the Yuma Jian, but the emperor ordered Huang Degong's troops to guard Yangzhou and guard the gate of Nanjing, so he could only transfer 1,500 elites from them to Nanjing and be under the jurisdiction of the Yuma Jian.
After the Nanjing Xungui rebellion case, the Beijing camp was dismantled, and the emperor replaced the Beijing camp with the Shence Army.
The original more than 5,000 soldiers in the Beijing camp were also assigned to the Yuma Supervisor.
Therefore, Han Zanzhou now has 6,500 soldiers in his hands.
Han Zanzhou decided to transfer 5,000 people from these 6,500 people to form an internal factory.
Five hundred of them are responsible for the detective work of Yingtian Mansion, and the remaining 4,500 are all sent to local areas.
These 4,500 local police officers were affiliated with the Military Intelligence Department under the inner factory and were directly responsible to Han Zanzhou.

Broken down in this way, a Chief Secretary can have about 300 military intelligence officers, which is enough for intelligence work alone.
In Han Zanzhou's view, the role of the Military Intelligence Department cannot be replaced by Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
This is because the Military Intelligence Department will dispatch officers to the areas occupied by the Puppet Shun and Puppet Qing dynasties to spy on intelligence and send it back to Nandu in a timely manner.
Over time, the inner factory will definitely surpass the Dongchang Jinyiwei, and the possibility of Han Zanzhou winning the position of chief minister of etiquette will also greatly increase.
Of course, Han Zanzhou also knew that the competition between Neichang and Dongchang was long-term.
For the sake of checks and balances, the emperor would not appoint a palm eunuch until the last moment.
All Han Zanzhou could do was to fulfill his duties and handle his duties well.
As for the final decision of who would serve as the chief eunuch and eunuch, it would be up to the emperor to decide.
But there is an extremely important thing that needs to be done by Han Zanzhou right now.
The emperor intended to recruit Wen Anzhi, who was far away from his hometown in Yiling, as the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, and ordered Han Zanzhou to send someone to deliver the order.
In a time of peace, this would not be difficult, but now Yiling is under the control of Bai Wang, the general under the command of the intruder Li Zicheng.
Under such circumstances, it is extremely dangerous to go to Yiling to convey the order.
If you are not careful, you will be captured by the enemy.
Generally speaking, eunuchs or civil servants deliver orders, but in this situation it is definitely impossible.
To pass through enemy-occupied territory, one must have sufficient physical strength and endurance, which cannot be achieved by pampered civil servants and eunuchs.
So Han Zanzhou decided to give this task to a soldier.
Of course, this soldier now has a new identity, that is, Fanzi of the Internal Factory Military Intelligence Department.
In Han Zanzhou's opinion, this opportunity could be used to test the feasibility of stationing military intelligence officers in enemy-occupied areas, so he attached great importance to the selection of personnel and even personally asked about it.
After many rounds of screening, Han Zanzhou finally determined the person to carry out this mission.
This man's name is Zhou Daoning.
He has just turned thirty this year.
He was born in a powerful martial style.
He was previously an ordinary soldier in the Beijing camp.
Zhou Daoning was overjoyed after hearing the news.
He is very clear that the one that today's emperor relies on the most trust is the Shence Army he has personally established.
After the Nanjing Xungui rebellion case, the Beijing camp was dismantled.
The original soldiers of the Beijing camp were dispersed and mixed with more than 1,000 people from Huang Degong's Yongwei camp, under the jurisdiction of the Royal Horse Supervisor.
Originally, he thought he would just hang around and wait to die.
Unexpectedly, Eunuch Han suddenly expressed his intention to select a large number of people to build an in-house factory, and Zhou Daoning was also selected.
This is nothing, after all, 5,000 of the 6,500 people were selected.
But then Eunuch Han selected one of the five thousand people to go to Yiling to deliver the message, and finally he chose Zhou Daoning.
How unpleasant this is Since we have to pass through enemy-occupied territory, the fewer people there, the better.
Zhou Daoning is not resistant to performing tasks alone.
Thirty years, he has lived for thirty years just to wait for an opportunity.
He wants to prove that he is no worse than others.
But now the opportunity finally came to him.
As long as he can successfully bring the imperial edict to Yiling and bring it to Wen Anzhi, his fate will change.
Prince and general Xiang Ning have the guts?
