"Jiang Li." Zhu Yunhuan called out Jiang Li.

"I'm here." Jiang Li bowed.

"You are capable of solving major cases, and you deserve to be rewarded. You are granted the Feiyu robe." Zhu Yunhuan directly rewarded Jiang Lin with a Feiyu robe.

Not all Jinyiwei wore Feiyu suits, and not even some were qualified to wear them.

The Feiyu clothing is a bestowed clothing. According to the Ming system, all ministers were given one scarlet silk gauze clothing each. The colors of the clothing were: first-rank bullfighting clothing, second-rank flying fish clothing, third-rank python clothing, fourth- and fifth-rank kirin clothing, sixth- and seventh-rank tiger clothing and leopard clothing. All officials, regardless of rank, were given the clothing, except for the fifth rank and below in the ministry.

Jiang Li was an official of the third rank and was granted the right to wear a dragon robe.

As for the fact that all the Jinyiwei wore Feiyu uniforms, that was impossible. Could it be that all the Jinyiwei were of the second rank?

is it possible?

The commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was only a third-rank official and could not wear the Feiyu robe, so he could only wear a dragon robe.

In the 13th year of Hongwu, the Hu Weiyong case broke out and the court began to make major adjustments to the political system. While abolishing the Secretariat, promoting the six ministries, and dividing the Grand Marshal's Office into five military governor's offices, Zhu Yuanzhang announced that the headquarters of each guard would be downgraded by half a level to the third rank.

In the 15th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang officially announced the change of Yiluansi to Jinyiwei, which also had the rank of third grade. However, in order to reflect the special status of Jinyiwei, Zhu Yuanzhang changed the Jinyiwei Commandery to the third grade on March 18th of the 17th year of Hongwu.

Therefore, Jiang Li's rank also reached the third rank.

If nothing unexpected happens, wearing a dragon robe is already the best quality clothing Jiang Lin can wear in his life.

Jiang Lin also wanted the Flying Fish Suit and the Bullfighting Suit, but unfortunately they were not so easy to get. Jiang Lin also did not expect that Zhu Yunhuan would directly give him a Flying Fish Suit!

Rewarding Jiang Li with a Feiyu suit is more useful than any gold, silver or jewelry.

"I thank your Highness for his grace."

Jiang Li knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his body shaking uncontrollably.

Flying fish suit, I will have the chance to wear the flying fish suit.

"Stand up, this is what you deserve. Not to mention the flying fish suit, if you do your job well, you can wear the bullfighting suit in the future." Zhu Yunhuan encouraged.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Jiang Li thanked him and stood up.

"All the Jinyiwei who participated in handling this case will be rewarded with twenty taels of silver." Zhu Yunhuan gave another reward.

"On behalf of the Jinyiwei, I would like to thank Your Highness for his grace."

Jiang Li bowed.

"As the emperor's personal army, how many Jinyiwei are there now?" Zhu Yunhuan suddenly asked about the number of Jinyiwei.

Many officials' faces changed. What was Zhu Yunhuan going to do? Was he going to give Jinyiwei more power?

"Your Highness, the Jinyiwei's North and South Pacification Divisions now have more than 43,000 people," Jiang Li replied.

Jinyiwei is the general name for the Northern and Southern Pacification Offices, and Jiang Lin is the boss of the Northern and Southern Pacification Offices.

The Southern Pacification Division was mainly responsible for discipline management within the Jinyiwei, similar to the discipline inspection department of the Jinyiwei, while the Northern Pacification Division was external and was specifically responsible for various orders issued by the emperor, similar to an action execution department.

However, the Northern Pacification Office had greater power and broader responsibilities and could directly arrest, torture, and execute people without going through the government offices.

Behead first and report later, royal authority has granted permission.

"It's too few. Immediately recruit reinforcements from all over the place to expand the establishment to 80,000 people." Zhu Yunhuan said with a wave of his hand.

"The minister obeys the order."

The smile on Jiang Lin's face became even more intense. This undoubtedly increased Jiang Lin's power. Once the Jinyiwei was expanded, Jiang Lin would be able to obtain more information.

The possibility of future progress will naturally be greater.

However, Zhu Yunhuan's next words made Jiang Lin unhappy at all.

"From now on, the Metropolitan Censorate will be changed to the Anti-Corruption Bureau, with a rank of the third grade, and it will recruit personnel on its own, with a staff of 10,000 people. There is only one standard for joining the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and that is that one must be an upright person.

The previous powers of the Anti-Corruption Bureau remain unchanged. It is only responsible for combating corruption and investigating corruption from kings and generals to minor officials of the ninth rank.
