Prince of Chaos

The next morning.

The sky is slightly bright, and the chilly spring breeze brings with it a bit of coolness that turns warm and then cold.

However, the seventh rank governors who were on duty at the General Administration Department suddenly ushered in a small peak.

Whoohoo!

Fifty or sixty little green-robed censors gathered together in front of the Tongzheng Secretary's door, and they were about to hand over the magnificent essays they had written overnight!

When the seventh-rank governor on duty saw so many green-robed imperial censors gathered together, they thought to themselves, "What happened?"

Just when these seventh-rank governors came out to greet them, the leading censor had already spoken.

"Where is the Tongzheng Envoy? I have a report to go straight to the crown prince."

Liu Dayong stood in front of the crowd and asked the seventh-rank governors on duty who came out to greet them.

The headed governor, Fang Changqing, immediately came out of the crowd, bowed his hands to Liu Dayong and others, and said politely: "Master Yu Shi, you came here so early?"

Liu Dayong looked at Fang Changqing's polite look, and Liu Dayong also stretched out his hand not to slap the smiling face, so he also politely said: "Master Xiaofang, we have something important to ask Master Shen, you go and report it."

Fang Changqing took a look at the battle behind Liu Dayong, and knew that this group of green-robed censors would definitely not have any good things together, so he appointed some unlucky guy who offended this group of mad dogs who claimed to be righteous.

However, Fang Changqing still said with a smile on his face: "Liu Yushi wait a moment, Mr. Shen has gone to the palace. If you have any booklets, you can send them to me first. When Mr. Shen comes back, I will inform you." He checked the papers of the censors for the first time, and then went to the crown prince."

When Liu Dayong heard that Shen Zimu was not there, he was inevitably a little disappointed, but there was nothing he could do.

After all, the Secretary of the General Administration received too many national memorials every day. As the chief official of the first department, he must distribute some important memorials to the cabinet and the Ciqing Palace before every morning.

Therefore, it is useless for Liu Dayong and the others to be anxious, and they still have to wait, unless they want to make a bigger fuss and go directly to the Meridian Gate to sit in meditation.

Otherwise, they can only hand over the papers to the Secretary of General Affairs first, and then wait for news from the cabinet and the palace.

So, Liu Dayong said: "Okay, then I will leave it to Mr. Xiaofang. After Mr. Shen comes back, please trouble Mr. Xiaofang to transfer our notebook to Mr. Shen as soon as possible, and ask Mr. Shen to present it to Mr. Shen on my behalf." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Fang Changqing said: "Liu Yushi, please don't worry, the lower officials will definitely follow suit. Today, so many censors gathered in the Minister of General Affairs, the Secretary of General Affairs will definitely take it seriously and listen to the upright words of all the censors."

Liu Dayong said: "Okay."

Then, Liu Dayong left all the memorials at the Secretary of General Administration, and then went back.

And the reason why they didn't go to court when they went to court like in the TV series is because the ceremonial court meeting is not used for discussing affairs at all.

Moreover, Zhu Changluo also followed the Wanli emperor's habit of not going to court, and he didn't like the atmosphere of the court meeting either.

I think that kind of big court meeting is not only a waste of time, but also can't effectively handle court affairs.

Zhu Changluo always believes that the fewer people involved in decision-making, the more efficient it is for the really important events.

As for these low-level officials, they only need to be responsible for the implementation and follow-up supervision.

Therefore, it is almost rare for a minister to directly evade the emperor in the TV series.

Once it happens, it means that the minister will tear his face apart with the emperor, and the emperor's army will be killed on the spot.

Anyone with a little brain would not do such a thing directly, unless he was determined to be the emperor and wanted to win a huge political return.

It's a pity that Zhu Changluo won't give them this chance.

Because, Zhu Changluo's reason is also very legitimate, he is not the emperor, he is just the crown prince who supervises the country and handles the government.It is the emperor's prerogative to convene the great court meeting, and he cannot overstep it.

But in fact, he has usurped a lot of imperial power now.

The first is his costume, except that the dragon pattern is blue, the rest is the same as that of the emperor.

Moreover, the seven words "Prince Fengtian Xingdao" were added at the beginning of the decree promulgated by him, which is almost the same as "Emperor Fengtian Chengyun".

In addition, his decree is called Lingzhi or Yuzhi, which is an incredible arrogance.However, no one came forward to criticize, because the ministers also believed that the crown prince was far better than the emperor, so this was what they liked to hear.

After all, once the emperor and the courtiers, they also look forward to being appreciated by the crown prince, so that they can flourish and show their ambitions!
But even so, Zhu Changluo still insisted not to hold a grand court meeting. He would only summon some cabinet members and relevant responsible officials in the Ciqing Palace to specialize in a certain matter. uncomfortable.

In Ciqing Palace.

At this moment, Shen Li and Shen Zimu went to Ciqing Palace together again.

The reason why the two came to Ciqing Palace so early this time is because they have obtained "conclusive" evidence, and they want to report to Zhu Changluo, asking Zhu Changluo to make the final decision.

Shen Li bowed and said: "Your Highness, the ministers have already found out about Chu Zong, and all the witnesses have provided relevant testimony. Please look over it, Your Highness."

Looking at these so-called evidences, Zhu Changluo found that Shen Li and Shen Zimu had done solid work in the past three months.

There were actually 29 members of the Chu Zong who jointly signed the Shangshu and identified the current Chu king Zhu Huakui as a fake with adulterated blood.

This testimony can be described as heavy. It only takes one thought from Zhu Changluo, and the king of Chu, Zhu Huakui, will fall from the clouds into the dust, and even be executed by Ling Chi.

After Zhu Changluo finished reading, he said lightly: "I decree that the king of Chu will see you when he comes to Beijing."

After hearing Zhu Changluo's words, both Shen Li and Shen Zimu's eyelids twitched.

The two men shrank their busy necks, bowed and bowed: "I obey the order."

Then, the two left Ciqing Palace.

After walking out of Ciqing Palace, Shen Li and Shen Zimu looked at each other, and they knew each other.

"This time the King of Chu was killed."

After a while, Shen Zimu sighed.

"It's the false king of Chu."

Shen Li immediately corrected him. At this moment, Shen Li was already planning to go all the way to the dark, and he was going to step on the King of Chu to re-achieve himself as a moral model who was not afraid of power and upright.

In the Ming Dynasty, after Zhu Yuanzhang, in order to gain political capital, many officials would find a prince or two princes as targets of impeachment.

After all, these arrogant and domineering clan vassals are indeed bastards, and they have indeed done a lot of grievances and bad things.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, he still felt sorry for his children and didn't care about it.

However, after changing the heir, these uncles and uncles still don't know how to restrain themselves, and continue to mess around recklessly. Isn't this a clear way to hand someone a knife?

If the low-level civil servants who are upright and eager to get promoted don't stab them, who will they stab?
Therefore, Jianwen cut down the vassals so fiercely and recklessly.

This group of upright civil servants who are eager to show their loyalty to the king and the country can be said to have contributed a lot!

How could Jianwen Xiaocute have deposed the five kings in just a few months, forced the death of King Zhu Bo of Xiang, and forced the rebellion of King Yan without their verbal criticism and can't wait to put shit on the clan's relatives.Achieved the only emperor in history who was overthrown by a vassal.

It can be seen from this that an upright civil servant is born to be unable to live with the emperor's family. If he does not ruin the family of the emperor's brothers and relatives, he is not considered a qualified and loyal civil servant.
