Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 199
After explaining some things well, Zhu Xiongying's heart will be at ease, and he has done all the things that should be done, and now he only needs to wait for the results.

As for the result, Zhu Xiongying didn't particularly care.In other words, whether Zhan Hui and others want to be decent is not what Zhu Xiongying should care about. Zhu Xiongying just did what he should do.

Zhu Xiongying, who is in a good mood, feels that everything is under control, and now he is slowly focusing on other places.For example, Lao Zhu's birthday is an out-and-out major event, and it may also be a major event that changed the historical trend of the Ming Dynasty.

It's not just Zhu Xiongying who is concerned about these things, many people are also waiting and watching eagerly at this time. They all know that this moment may be quite special, and some sensational events will happen soon.

Those things about Zhan Hui are actually just small things.It is not too difficult for Zhu Xiongying to solve such a matter.After all, Zhu Xiongying is the grandson of the emperor, and the current emperor is even more domineering and arbitrary.

Zhu Yuanzhang lived in the West Palace, and his third and fifth sons were also with him. If they were not allowed to leave the palace, they should stay with him.

Lying comfortably on the dragon couch, enjoying the pinching of his legs by the two second sons.Today's sons, Lao Zhu loves these two sons the most, and they can be regarded as his heart and soul.

Lao Zhu opened his mouth slowly, and asked with a smile, "My third son, you said our grandson is busy punishing officials, what do you think?"

"Father, if you want us to say that the grandson is too benevolent." Zhu Yan said directly, which is also in line with his characteristics, "Since you don't like the minister of the official department, just kill him directly. Let him go back to be honored, that man Maybe you will talk about government affairs indiscriminately, maybe you will still think about raising people when you return to the village, thinking about the fish and meat village."

Zhu Huan disagreed, and said directly, "Third brother, Zhan Hui is not such a person. This person is quite good, and the grandson asked him to go back and raise him, which can be regarded as giving preferential treatment to scholars. Our grandson is good at martial arts. The reputation is too strong, and it should be changed."

"Change, change why?" Zhu Yan didn't agree, and said directly, "Our father will win the world immediately, and those scholars can win the world? Those scholars are low-boned, soft-boned, we..."

Old Zhu was not very happy, and said to Zhu Wei, "It's not good for these words to spread, not good for you, not good for grandson. It's not a bad thing that Ying'er is good at Wu, and it's good for Emperor Wu to have a better reputation. We , the most fearful thing is that our Yinger is too weak."

"Then dad, don't worry, the grandson is not weak." Zhu Yan said directly, "Let's not say that our grandson was good at martial arts when he was young, and he had a lot of drills with those veteran generals. Before that, we were in the north. I went out to patrol the border with my grandson. Our grandson is very stable in military affairs, so if you want us to say it is a good thing, everything will be stable."

Old Zhu laughed out loud, and patted Zhu Min on the head, "Third brother, you can see it right. Our Yinger doesn't need to be a general in command, and we don't need him to go to the battlefield. Our Yinger's soldiers are stable, That's enough. Our Ming Dynasty is strong, whether it's against vassal kings or barbarians, we can use our troops steadily, and we don't need to use surprise troops."

Zhu Yan was speechless, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, "Father, if Ying'er ascends the throne, my son will return to his hometown to guard the graves of his grandparents!"

Lao Zhu glanced at this wise and cruel son and didn't say much, which also made Zhu Yan a little anxious.This suffering card has been played out, and it should be a relief, but why is there no more content?
Zhu Wei also said at this time, "Speaking of it, if the grandson ascends the throne, he will not treat us badly. We know his intention to cut down the feudal clan. He handed over the military power of the three guards. He can talk about anything, and we don't care about the feudal land. Affairs. Just take our salary and be a prince with peace of mind."

Old Zhu seemed to be taking a nap, and asked casually, "Fifth, do you really think so?"

"Father, the grandson is very similar to the elder brother." Zhu Wei also said at this time, "My son is not stupid, the grandson is better than the elder brother, and the grandson probably wants to have the ambition to surpass Hanwu and Taizong. Others Let's not talk about it for the time being, the grandson is still good to his family. Even if the feudal clan is cut, he is thinking of a way out and will not treat us badly."

Lao Zhu showed some smiles, he knew that his two sons were not trying to comfort him on purpose.It seems that these two sons are considered smart, knowing that there is no way to expect more at such a moment, so naturally they can only tell the truth instead of being cautious.

As for Zhu Xiongying at this time, he was busy with other things, such as handling memorials.And I feel that some people and some things are really difficult to be satisfied. Even if there are some good-looking plans for many things, if you just want to really follow the plan, it will not work.

The desire for power, or some ideals in his heart, made Zhan Hui still persist.It is simply impossible for him to retire and return to his hometown now. He feels that he can continue to lead the civil servants against the imperial power, and he feels that he can continue to stay in the court and become a pillar of talent.

A little threat, setback, suspicion of some emperor or grandson, it's nothing, he will prove his loyalty and virtuousness!
There is no way to reason about this matter, and this matter really annoyed Zhu Xiongying quite a bit. It seems that his good intentions cannot be accepted by others, and many things seem to be beyond him. control.

Originally, Zhu Xiongying wanted to improve the ecological environment of the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty. After all, Lao Zhu's high pressure on civil and military affairs was indeed too ruthless. Zhu Xiongying wanted to relieve the pressure a little, so that these people would not live in fear. It can also let the civil and military people retire with dignity.

But now it seems that it is useless at all. The desire for power and the pursuit of ideals will make many people ignore life and death.

Old Zhu obviously also knew something, seeing the sulking Zhu Xiongying smiled and said, "Ying'er, Zhan Hui doesn't know your good intentions, so don't be lenient blindly, or these people will jump Got up."

"Grandson knows, these things are really embarrassing." Zhu Xiongying was a little depressed, and said to Lao Zhu, "It seems that we have to be more direct. Find a reason to drive away. There is no need to think about the center, go to It’s not bad to manage a county well.”

Old Zhu was still not satisfied, so he tried to make Zhu Xiongying change his mind, "Yinger, if you simply kill him, there will be no trouble at once. Let's say, let's pick up the knife, and those people will know how to be afraid." Yes. If you reason with him, those people will not be afraid of you!"

The principles are basically the same, but Zhu Xiongying also feels that those civil servants may not be afraid of knives.At most, some people were killed, and the rest of the people would be silent for a while, only to start making noise again after a while.

Since he didn't take the initiative to tell the old man, he should be demoted directly. Zhu Xiongying felt that these things were not difficult, and it was easy for him, the grandson of the emperor, to operate.

This is probably the characteristic of the feudal dynasty. The supreme imperial power can decide life and death with one word.Official career, etc., are often just a matter of a word from the superior.

With such a domineering emperor like Lao Zhu, naturally there are not many people who can wrestle with him.And Zhu Xiongying's control over the court and prestige among the officials is indeed not as good as that of Lao Zhu, but Zhu Xiongying is not something that civil officials can control.

Let alone unfounded things, he had enough reasons to crucify Zhan Hui directly.Since Zhan Hui did not take the initiative to step down, Zhu Xiongying wanted Zhan Hui to leave the court without face, so that Zhan Hui would never have the opportunity to step into the court again.

For Zhu Xiongying, some things already have answers in his heart, and that's about it.

Old Zhu wants to kill people to solve the trouble, he thinks this is the best way to solve the problem, and this kind of thing is indeed something that Old Zhu is very good at.

And Zhu Xiongying felt that it was time to make some changes. He never planned to elevate the status of civil servants too high, but he didn't intend to keep the status of civil servants as low as dust. That was not a particularly favorable situation.

After all, to govern the world, civil servants still need to consider, and these people still need to work hard.The most important thing is that the noble power of Ming Dynasty is strong enough, so naturally at this time, it is necessary to consider slightly changing the status of civil servants.

Let's change from Zhan Hui. This Minister of the Ministry of Officials is indeed suitable to be a good example, and can become a model project for Zhu Xiongying to set up.

Going up to the court again, naturally, it was noisy again.But this time it was the Metropolitan Procuratorate's side who made trouble. Zhan Hui had no way to teach his children, and he was biased when appointing and dismissing officials, and he favored southern officials too much.

This is naturally the reason why Zhan Hui was directly demoted from the capital. The Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Officials became the county magistrate of Qipin, and he basically had no way to return to the center in his life.Because this Zhan Hui is numbered in Zhu Xiongying's heart, it is recorded in the small book.

Zhan Hui's relegation naturally made many civil officials sad, and many people were fighting for Zhan Hui.

Zhu Xiongying was not at all polite at this time, he was able to do these things with ease, and he didn't feel any embarrassment at all.

Lao Zhu seems to be a "puppet" in these matters, and he basically entrusts these matters to Zhu Xiongying for disposal.Lao Zhu was also very relieved that his grandson solved the problem cleanly without any other excuses.

Even if Lao Zhu understood that these things were done so smoothly, it was mainly because of his majesty that the civil and military officials below did not dare to make too much noise.

But no matter what, this matter can also be seen that Zhu Xiongying now controls the court, and it can be seen that Zhu Xiongying, the grandson of the emperor, acts simply and directly because he has the right.

"Next, it should be a really big event. It is about preparing to abdicate and ascend the throne!" Stretching his waist, Zhu Xiongying muttered to himself, "The matter in the court is temporarily gone, and everything is smooth!"
