Chapter 458: Valuing the rivers and lakes


Chapter 458 Valued by the rivers and lakes for the appearance of the West Factory, Bai Long was quite angry after knowing the news, and also thought that Wang Ge had pretended to be injured and in a coma for too long, so that Zhu Di had the idea of establishing the West Factory to share the functions of the East Factory, if Wang Ge had "woken up" earlier, Zhu Di should not have established the West Factory to divide power.Before, Dongchang was obviously higher than the existence of Jinyiwei, and it was the highest intelligence and espionage agency in the Ming Dynasty, and it was extremely powerful.But now that there is the West Factory, things have naturally changed.Even if Wang Ge "wakes up" now, it is impossible for the West Factory to be canceled again, and it is likely to become an institution between the emperor and the East Factory and Jinyiwei, which is used to transmit news inside and outside the palace and help the emperor control the East Factory and Jinyiwei.Obviously, the West Plant will succeed higher than the East Plant.However, Wang Ge does not think so, in his opinion, the emergence of the West Factory is inevitable.He doesn't know when the West Factory appeared in history, but he knows that even if there are no such things that happened in Beiping, even if he is not "seriously injured and unconscious", it will be a matter of time before Zhu Di creates a new intelligence, information control and collection agency.Wang Ge knows Zhu Di's character, although he has the vision of a useful person, he also has the courage to use people, and many times he has a posture of being useful and not suspicious.But Zhu Di also has a strong desire to control, and the most important function of organizations like Dongchang and Jinyiwei is to assist the emperor in intelligence collection and exploration.Compared with the commanders of the Jinyi Guards in the Hongwu Dynasty, Wang Ge's ability is too strong, and his imprint in the East Investigation Factory is too deep, he was fine when he was in the capital, once he left the capital, Zhu Di wanted to directly control the East Factory, so he was naturally separated by a layer.Therefore, the West Factory, which was directly controlled by the eunuchs, came into being, which is logical.It's just that if Wang Ge hadn't been "unconscious", then Zhu Di's actions should have been more tactful, and his feelings would have been taken into account more, and the impact on Dongchang would not have been so great."

Aren't you worried that there is a West Factory to divide your power?

In the future, it will be the eunuch who rides on your head!

”Bai Long didn't quite understand Wang Ge's indifference."

Do you know why the old monk is reluctant to return to the vulgar and unwilling to be knighted and become an official?"

Regarding Bai Long's question, Wang Ge did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically."

The old monk is afraid of high merit?

Afraid of the late festival?

But if you really want to talk about the credit, the first credit for the Jingnan should be you!

”"It's not just a matter of credit."

Wang Ge said: "Dao Yan can be said to be the most trusted person of the emperor, even more than his sons.Coupled with his prestige and influence in the martyrdom meritorious service, as long as he comes out to serve as an official and do things, no matter how much he receives, he will become a powerful minister.As long as he does things, he will inevitably gather a group of supporters around him, and there will inevitably be protégés and subordinates, and a force will inevitably be formed.He can control himself, but he may not be able to control everyone.At that time, even if Zhu Di trusts him again, he will not be able to tolerate his existence. ”Bai Long was thoughtful and nodded slightly: "I understand, what do you mean......

You also had this trend before, so you have to keep a low profile, and you are also willing to let the emperor share your power?

”Indeed, compared to Dao Yanlai, Wang Ge is not far behind in other aspects, except for some differences in the emperor's trust.The functions of the East Investigation Factory are too broad and too large, and the flexibility of power is also very large, and under the leadership of a strong leader, it is easy to grow into a beast.Of course, because of the characteristics of Dongchang, its own power comes from the emperor's trust, so the possibility of getting out of control is actually very small, and it will not become a powerful minister.Wang Ge nodded, and said: "For the emperor and others, the most important power of Dongchang is the power to secretly monitor and censor the hundred officials, as well as the relevant secrets and information in their possession.But for me, these powers can be abandoned, I just need the people and the rivers and lakes.Therefore, the emperor got the West Factory to divide power, which is actually exactly what I want. ”Bai Long also reacted, although the scope of authority of the East Investigation Factory is very wide and the power is very great.But from the very beginning, Wang Ge deliberately avoided exercising the right to monitor and investigate officials.Soon after Zhu Di ascended the throne, when he purged Jianwen's former ministers, Dongchang had been deliberately avoiding getting involved, giving up this opportunity to become famous and increase his power, and basically left everything to Jinyiwei to do, and he was "engrossed" to deal with the secret agents of Mengyuan and Tatar.So now for most people, in fact, they feel that Dongchang does not have any sense of existence, especially officials, courtiers, although some people know that Dongchang's status is actually higher than that of Jinyiwei, but compared to the fear and disgust of Jinyiwei, it seems that Dongchang is really just an organization dedicated to the outside world, dealing with secret agents of other countries, and installing secret agents to other countries.After knowing this, Bai Long could understand why Wang Ge didn't care too much about the appearance of the West Factory.Because whether it is Xichang or Jinyiwei, it is obvious that they will not pay too much attention to the people and the rivers and lakes, if Wang Ge wants to focus on this aspect, he will definitely not rob him.Wang Ge, who has just "woken up", looks terrifyingly thin, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as skinny and bone-ty.In fact, as long as he wants, he can return to his original appearance in three or two days.During the more than a year of "coma" time, he didn't just "play dead".In that state, the understanding of the Phoenix Nirvana Dafa and the Phoenix Nirvana True Qi actually has a natural advantage - the body is dying, but the consciousness can remain awake.Originally, Wang Ge had already revised two cultivation versions according to the Phoenix Nirvana Dafa, one was for Shen Qing'er to cultivate, and the other was for the cronies who were later recruited into the East Factory to cultivate.When Wang Ge needs it, as long as they stand on the side, they can "extract" the Phoenix Nirvana True Qi from their bodies at any time to replenish and improve themselves.Of course, correspondingly, they didn't have to worry about the painful and difficult cultivation process, and they could directly obtain the skill level of a second-rate master.Moreover, a second-rate master with the true qi of Phoenix Nirvana is far stronger than an ordinary second-rate master.And now, after more than a year of "coma", Wang Ge has made new innovations in the Phoenix Nirvana Dafa, and has once again derived a number of cultivation methods.Based on the original Phoenix Nirvana Dafa, modified and partially deleted, Wang Ge derived three versions.One is the "Nirvana Divine Skill", which is similar to the Phoenix Nirvana Dafa practiced by Shen Qing'er, and he directly helped to cultivate, and there was a very high height at the beginning, at least a second-rate master jumped.The second is the "Great Innate Divine Skill", which is also blessed by Wang Ge with innate true qi, so that he can obtain the true qi of Phoenix Nirvana.The difference with the "Nirvana Divine Skill" is that for those who practice this martial art, Wang Ge has greater authority over his Phoenix Nirvana True Qi control, and the upper limit of his promotion is relatively small.The third is the "small innate divine skill", which does not need Wang Ge's personal blessing, even those who do not have martial arts can also practice by themselves.
