…

Seeing Qin Hui and Zhang Xu come in, Mei Zhili knew that his partner who issued paper money must be the Qin Censor who has been quarreled recently and Zhang Xu, who recruited soldiers to serve the king yesterday.

It’s not a pity that Mei Zhili has this guess.

Really -

During the process of restoring the imperial official system this time, although most of the positions remained unchanged, Han Qing still made some adjustments.

Among them, the biggest change is that Han Qing strengthened an extremely special department - the Imperial City Department.

The Imperial City Office is the name of the Imperial Guard of the Song Dynasty. It is a secret service agency of the Song Dynasty. It is similar to the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty. It is in charge of the palace ban and the Zhoulu guard. It spys on intelligence and is not under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council and the Three Yamen. It is a secret service agency directly under the emperor. In Han Qing, it is a secret service agency directly under Han Qing.

Originally, the power of this department was quite large, but because the chief officer was a military official (seventh rank) or above, and the eunuch (sixth rank) and an eunuch (sixth rank) and a squad (sixth rank) as well as a squad (sixth rank) as a squad, his power was not obvious.

But just two days ago, Han Qing suddenly promoted the chief officer of the Imperial City Department to the third rank under the name of wartime and the intelligence was extremely important, and changed it to "Imperial City Department Commander".

There are also: two commanders and magistrates of the Imperial City Department, who are in the third rank; two commanders and magistrates of the Imperial City Department, who are in the fourth rank; two commanders and magistrates of the Imperial City Department, who are in the fourth rank.

It can be said that the chief officer of the Imperial City Department has been greatly improved in all aspects.

Han Qing also planned to set up branches of the Imperial City Division in various places, setting up a large number of officials including Thousand households (the seventh rank), Thousand households (the seventh rank), One hundred households (the eighth rank), One hundred households (the eighth rank), One hundred households (the eighth rank), The General Banner (the ninth rank), Small Banner (the seventh rank), etc.

In addition, Han Qing specially granted the Imperial City Department official python uniforms, flying fish uniforms and bullfight uniforms to distinguish them from other departments.

By the way, the officials of the Imperial City Department are all held by Han Qing's confidants. Most of them are rank generals, political cadres, and staff officers who have been injured in battle and are not suitable for active combat.

Moreover, Han Qing also clearly stipulated that the Imperial City Department could arrest anyone, including royal relatives, and conduct an undisclosed interrogation.

In this way, Han Qing's intention to strengthen the Imperial City Department is too obvious.

Han Qing handed over this department he had carefully built to Yuwen Xuzhong, who had made great contributions in the anti-Jin process, and Yuwen Xuzhong served as the commander of the Imperial City Commander.

Not only Yuwen Xuzhong, but also those who have made contributions in the anti-Jin neutrality, have recently been promoted and rewarded by Han Qing, including the Song traitor Wu Jie and Mo Qiu, who were once extremely poorly praised.

Anyone can see that Han Qing is rewarding merits.

Qin Hui also made great contributions in the anti-Jin process. Some people even commented that the days when he delayed the Jin people, he bought the most precious time for Han Qing to defeat the Jin people. Moreover, Qin Hui's reputation was excellent in both the court and outside the court. Therefore, everyone felt that Han Qing would reuse Qin Hui.

As for Zhang Xu, he was the first high-ranking official to take the initiative to serve the king. Han Qing must have a daughter to buy bones.

After Qin Hui came in, he bowed respectfully to Han Qing and said, "Greetings to the king."

Zhang Xu then bowed: "Greetings to the king."

Han Qing looked as usual on the surface, but actually he was a little confused in his heart!

Of course, Han Qing's entanglement was not about Zhang Xu. Zhang Xu was ranked as a Jinshi in the sixth year of Yuanyou. He was promoted to the Longtu Pavilion Bachelor's degree and was transferred to the Ministry of Finance and Economics. He was very talented in financial management and issuance of currency. He still pointed to all the masters in terms of the interests of money and grain.

In history, it was Zhang Xu who helped Zhao Paopu print salt banknotes and earned 500,000 yuan to make Zhao Paopuo rich to support the army.

Such a talent did not go to Zhao Paopao, but came to vote for himself. Han Qing had anything to worry about, just use it.

What made Han Qing confused was Qin Hui, the treacherous minister.

To be honest, Han Qing was actually too influenced by "The Legend of Yue Fei" when he was a child, so that even if Han Qing found out later, the reason why Yue Fei was wrongly guilty was Zhao Gou, not Qin Hui and Zhang Jun. In addition, it also had a lot to do with Yue Fei's own personality and behavior. Even if Han Qing already knew that Qin Hui was really a loyal and patriotic person before he became evil, it could not change the fact that Han Qing liked Yue Fei and hated Qin Hui.

This is also one of the reasons why Han Qing promoted Yue Fei to a middle- and senior military officer he was close to when he saw Yue Fei.

But Han Qing has a different identity. If you think about things, you cannot just rely on your own temperament. You also have to consider development and influence. Don’t kill yourself because you are too stubborn.

Take Qin Hui as an example.

At present, Qin Hui has made no mistakes and has good reputations. The key is that although he is loyal to Zhao Song, he has never resisted Han Qing's rule. He is much more loyal than Sun Fu, Lu Haowen, and Hu Shundu and others, so Han Qing really has no reason not to use Qin Hui.

Especially now, everyone thinks that Han Qing has a keen eye for talent, knows people and uses it well, and has been able to subdue talents without any restrictions.

This is true for many low-level generals and schools in the central army who were originally just not in the right place, more and more students who are difficult to find employment, such as Yuwen Xu, who are talented but cannot be used, such as Zhang Shuye and others who are in a high position but cannot display their talents due to the constraints of the emperor, and the same is true for Tang Ke and others who lose their power because of the incompetence of the emperor.

When it comes to Qin Hui, if Han Qing changes his style, there is undoubtedly a possibility that his character will collapse.

Of course, Han Qing, who has never valued false reputation but only reality, will never be confused by how others view him.

What really made Han Qing confused was Qin Hui's talent.

Everyone knows that Qin Hui is a treacherous minister. Qin Hui helped Zhao Gou kill the great national hero Yue Fei with false crimes. Just as everyone knows that Heshen is a corrupt official, Heshen greed for huge amounts of stolen money equivalent to the ten years of the Qing Dynasty's finances.

But who knows that there were two periods of fastest economic development in Chinese history, one was the period of Qin Hui's autocracy in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the other was the period of Heshen in the Qing Dynasty.

Before Qin Hui's autocracy, the Southern Song Dynasty's fiscal revenue was only 30 million yuan, and the huge military expenditure caused by the war made the Southern Song court overwhelmed and could hardly support it.

After Qin Hui was in power, the Southern Song Dynasty's fiscal revenue increased from 30 million guan to 85 million guan in a short period of time, which prompted the Southern Song Dynasty's economy to recover rapidly, GDP grew to the world's number one, and people's lives became stable, and the Southern Song Dynasty, which was already shaky and facing collapse, lasted for more than a hundred years.

In the early Qing Dynasty, due to the war at the end of the Ming Dynasty, most parts of the country were destroyed by war, infrastructure was severely damaged, economic depression, and people lived in extreme poverty.

During Heshen's autocracy, the country's population increased from about 100 million to more than 300 million in a short period of time, the economy developed rapidly, GDP grew to the world's first place, and the people's living standards were greatly improved.

Therefore, a treacherous minister does not mean that he is incapable of ability.

What Han Qing lacks most now is that people with ability help him stabilize his country, or even help him build his country.

In this case, it is really hard for Han Qing not to use Qin Hui, a talent for economic development.

In the end, Han Qing persuaded himself to use Qin Hui on the grounds that "the wise change according to the times, and the wise control him according to the situation."
