Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 80 Chapter 80 Battle in the Court

Zhu Yuanzhang did not send anyone to monitor his sons.

Why should my family monitor me?

So after Wang Buli put on the Ming Dynasty military uniform and went on an excursion with Lao Si, the inspector sent to monitor followed him from a distance.

As for the inspection of Prince Yan's Mansion, he didn't even dare to go in.

"Wang Buli, a small official, dares to beat the fourth child?"

Zhu Yuanzhang had a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Although the two people competed in martial arts, Zhu Di was his son. According to folklore, he was the son of the dragon and his grandson.

"Dad, Guan Jian is the fourth child and he hasn't beaten him yet."

Zhu Biao had already seen it and couldn't help laughing.

The brothers want to fight every day, and the one who makes the most noise about becoming the general of the Peking University is the fourth child.

As a result, he failed to succeed and was killed before he even left the novice village!

Guan Jian Wang Buli's occupation was a county official, not a serious soldier.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also angry and laughed.

In the final analysis, it was just two young men messing around.

In his opinion, men who have never been on the battlefield imagine that they will go to the battlefield and kill everyone.

But only those who have experienced the cruelty of the battlefield will not think about fighting all the time.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that if Lao Si was not so frightened that he wet his pants for the first time on the battlefield, it would mean that he had not learned his skills in vain.

As the two got closer, Zhu Yuanzhang finally understood why the fourth child listened to Wang Buli's advice after he entered the fairyland for the first time.

"It's just two cobblers messing around."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and didn't care.

"How is the investigation into Liu Anliang's death going?"

"Dad, the pro-army sent the latest news. They secretly went to inspect the censor's body. They found that he died of insect poison. It was probably a Jiangnan insect. The poison caused the gums to turn black. The poison lasted overnight and day after day. Then I saw bleeding from the nine orifices."

"So Liu Anliang has been poisoned a long time ago. Make sure he goes to Ye Qinhuai before the poison develops."

Zhu Biao nodded, probably because of the spring scenery.

Liu Yushi's anger and blood rushed to his heart, and he couldn't bear it all of a sudden. He was made as if he died from the wind on a horse.

"Jiangnan, party struggle?"

Zhu Yuanzhang had a very bad feeling about the landowners in Jiangnan, and this poison sounded like they were paying tribute.

Liu Ji, Song Lian, Zhang Yi, Ye Chen and others are collectively known as the "Four Gentlemen of Eastern Zhejiang".

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the "Four Gentlemen of Eastern Zhejiang" were already well-known sages in eastern Zhejiang.

Especially Liu Ji. He first wanted to show off his skills in Dayuan, but was stabbed in the back by Dayuan and imprisoned in disguise.

He also observed Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang, and Zhu Yuanzhang.

Liu Ji found that the three of them were like bandits who took advantage of the situation and were not worthy of his active service. It was Zhu Yuanzhang who had reached the place where Liu Ji and others lived and subsequently invited them.

The overt and covert struggles between eastern Zhejiang and western Huaibei became apparent after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Zhu Yuanzhang visited Bianliang, while Liu Ji and Li Shanchang stayed in Nanjing. Li Bin, the capital of Zhongshu Province, was executed by Liu Ji.

After Li Shanchang moved into the new Prime Minister's Palace, Li Bin transformed the old Prime Minister's Palace into an ecstasy for the powerful in the capital.

There were beauties he collected from everywhere, as well as concubines and beauties captured from Zhang Shicheng and his officials and generals.

Zhang Shicheng had a set of sterling silver furniture that he also moved here.

The food, wine and food here are not inferior to the imperial banquet enjoyed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

People who come here to spend money must not only have money and official rank, but also need recommenders.

Zhu Yuanzhang punished officials who engaged in prostitution extremely harshly. Losing one's official position was a small matter, but losing one's head was a serious matter.

People who secretly come here to spend money at night have great trust in Li Bin. Li Bin was from Huaixi, a fellow countryman and close friend of Li Shanchang, and was appointed as the provincial capital of Zhongshu. Those who come here to spend money come not only for Li Bin, but also for his backer Li Shanchang.

On the surface they are here to enjoy the beauty and delicious food, but secretly they are here to buy an official position.

It is said that Li Bin promised that their highest official positions would be assistant to the prime minister and six ministers.

The turnover here every night ranges from 150,000 to 250,000 taels of silver. In the capital at that time, people secretly called this place the "Little Prime Minister's Mansion".

The person who discovered this place was Yang Xian, a figure whom Zhu Yuanzhang called the royal dog.

As Liu Ji insisted on killing Li Bin, and Li Shanchang implicated Liu Ji because of the drought and no rain, the conflict between the two parties had long been public.

In the eyes of Li Shanchang and other Huaixi people, there are only two kinds of people in the court.

"One is from Huaixi, and the other is from non-Huaixi."

Non-Huaixi people are a stumbling block for Huaixi people in political power.

Li Shanchang was born in Huaixi and had a strong "feeling to protect calves" towards the locals.

When he was in a high position, most of the officials he appointed were local people.

They formed an intricate Huai people clique in the power system of the Ming Dynasty.

During a war, those in power need the support of the villagers, but when the country is secure, the support of the bureaucratic group will only weaken the imperial power.

Zhu Yuanzhang had no experience of being an emperor and had never had such a dream before.

After he reached a high position, he could only seek guidance from texts such as Emperor's Biographies and Loyal Ministers' Records.

But it’s only a little hard to learn on paper, so I’d better practice more in practice.

Zhu Yuanzhang could see and have a clear understanding of the party struggle between the DPRK and China.

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to be the emperor of the world, not the leader of the Huaixi people.

The world has been peaceful. Although there are still Mongolian cavalry harassment on the border, and although the Liang king in Yunnan is still trying to make a final struggle, this does not prevent the Ming Dynasty from winning the world. It is time for Zhu Yuanzhang to transform his role.

Or when he ascended the throne as emperor, he had a blueprint for reform in his mind.

Among the many plans, the abolition of the prime minister was the most important one.

But if you want to abolish a system, you must first get rid of the people in the system.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang also has concerns in his heart. It is not that he has not considered cleaning up a group of people.

But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had the idea of ​​​​sharing wealth and honor with them and sharing the fruits of victory.

Because most of the powerful figures in the DPRK were Zhu Yuanzhang's compatriots.

Chinese people have a strong sense of nostalgia. Especially when they are trying to survive in troubled times, their friendship with their fellow countrymen becomes even stronger.

There are the Hunan Army and the Huai Army nearby, and the Fengfei Group trusted by Liu Bang in the distance. They are all groups composed of fellow villagers.

Anyone within a radius of more than ten miles in front of and behind their home is called a "doorman", and they usually watch and help each other and communicate with each other.

If there is a fight between "people at the door of the house" and outsiders, they will step forward to help regardless of the right and wrong, even if it involves bloodshed and loss of money.

"Dad, do you want to send someone to continue investigating this matter?"

Zhu Biao explained that Liu Yushi's family admitted that he died from Ma Feng and wanted to bury him. They could not continue to embarrass themselves.

Although rumors of two ghosts in Yingtian Mansion marrying a girl are flying all over the sky, as a censor, you still need to have face.

"The inspection school will continue to investigate. We want to see who is behind this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sat back down again, thinking that this matter must not be left alone. This might be an excellent opportunity for him to reform the system.

Zhongshu Sheng was a roadblock for him to abolish the prime minister system.

Fighting in the court never happens overnight!
