I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 90 Xie Qian: Eight hundred miles away, I urgently asked His Majesty the Emperor to guard the country!

The capital cabinet has become a stand-in!

This was Yang Tinghe's first thought.

How dare Zhu Houzhao?
Did he think he was Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang?
This was Yang Tinghe's second thought!
For well-known reasons, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, took advantage of the founding of the country and directly abolished the prime minister system that had been passed down for thousands of years.

From then on, there was no prime minister in the land of China.

No, to be more precise, there was no prime minister in the Ming Dynasty.

Here in Ming Dynasty.

The battle between imperial power and prime minister power came to an end temporarily with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Imperial power reached its peak in thousands of years.

Hu Weiyong became the last prime minister.

There is no prime minister or prime minister system.

Zhu Yuanzhang's centralization of power reached its peak.

He faced six departments by himself, and all aspects of the Ming Dynasty required his personal review and review.

Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely energetic and his control over power was almost abnormal. In the first thirty years of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it can be called the Zhu Yuanzhang era, and he was the only voice.

His sense of presence is quite strong!

It can be said that among the founding emperors of the past dynasties, he was the first emperor who did the most things and had the greatest influence on the dynasty.

Among Taizu, he is definitely the number one person in terms of making the rules of the world and breaking them.

Liu Bang, Liu Xiu, Cao Pi, Sima Yan, Liu Yuan, Tuoba Gui, Yang Jian, Li Yuan, Yelu Abaoji, Zhao Kuangyin, Genghis Khan, etc. are all inferior to him in this aspect.

It was his influence that was so strong that after he abolished the prime minister system, subsequent emperors of the Ming Dynasty, not even Zhu Di, dared to break this rule.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang also gave a wrong example.

When power is too concentrated, it will inevitably be dispersed.

No one can have such perverted energy to deal with so many things every day.

His behavior dug a huge sinkhole for the next emperor.

The second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yunwen, was not able to do so, so he had to rely on the three ministers of Jianwen to coordinate the governance of the country.

Then during this period, in the face of the huge power that suddenly came one after another, neither Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen nor Jianwen's three ministers took it well. They even moved too fast and directly began to cut down the vassal. As a result, Zhu Di was forced to rebel and was He was forced to take over as the third emperor of Ming Dynasty.

After Zhu Di took over, he took over the power of prime minister.

Because he had the help of Prince Zhu Gaochi, and then he recruited several low-ranking officials to handle the memorials for him and sort out the priorities of national affairs.

These low-ranking people became the prototype of the cabinet.

After Zhu Di's death, Zhu Gaochi succeeded to the throne and continued this cabinet system, and only then did the so-called three Yang ministers appear.

After Zhu Zhanji came to power, the cabinet was gradually stabilized, and the cabinet began to slowly carry the power of the prime minister. Zhu Zhanji could make the Ming Dynasty run smoothly even without going to court.

It can be said that "San Yang" has become a model for important cabinet ministers.

In fact, the cabinet's performance was too perfect after Zhu Zhanji's death.

Because Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne at the age of nine at that time, the emperor was too young to handle national affairs.

The Ming Dynasty's deliberation and processing body can only be composed of the Queen Mother and the cabinet.

During the period before Zhu Qizhen took office.

Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji resisted the power of Bei Yuan.

There is a period of rising national power of the dynasty.

In addition, official governance is generally regarded as a period of relaxation after high pressure.

The three periods were superimposed, and the cabinet could barely be considered prosperous in these major trends of the times, developing from its infancy to its youth.

At this time, Haoshibushi met Zhu Qizhen who wanted to make a big difference.

After he took office, the cabinet returned the government to him, which happened to be the black swan of the Ming Dynasty, the Tumubao Incident.

The emperor was captured and the Ming Dynasty was left without a leader, so it could only rely on the cabinet again.

The cabinet was forced to once again take over huge powers at this time, and could even choose the emperor.

The elected Zhu Qiyu could only compromise. At this time, the imperial power was completely lower than the power of the cabinet ministers. After Zhu Qizhen came back, he seemed to have discovered this matter and wanted to disperse the power of the cabinet.

It is a pity that there are no nobles, military generals, etc. to restrict the cabinet composed of civilians. In addition, his own huge stain on Beishou also caused the imperial power to be questioned and he failed to suppress the cabinet.

After his son Zhu Jianshen came to power, he could only rely on Xichang and Jinyiwei, and even instituted a system of serving officials with thousands of people to fight against the cabinet...

The cabinet during this period was naturally suppressed.

The mocking nickname of Wan An and other paper-thin three-geek elders is the best evidence of the weakness of the cabinet.

Fortunately, Zhu Jianshen did not live long enough, and the relationship in the harem was also somewhat chaotic, so he died in his prime.

On the stage came Zhu Youtang, who was raised by the empress dowager in the deep palace and had a pleasing personality developed from being bullied since he was a child...he was a young emperor again.

As a result, the cabinet is once again powerful!
Hongzhi three gentlemen!
Hongzhi Sange Lao!
Shocking the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty!

The power of the cabinet has reached its peak.

If I could describe the cabinet in one sentence.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang: What is the cabinet? Is it as difficult to kill as Hu Weiyong?

Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen: Cabinet? Why is there such a good thing?

Taizong Zhu Di: Cabinet, isn’t this just a small secretariat?

Renzong Zhu Gaochi: Cabinet, isn’t this a good helper for us?

Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji: The cabinet is okay. We are quite afraid of him sometimes?
Orthodox Zhu Qizhen: Cabinet, what is the cabinet? Best regards, Master Wang!

Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu: Cabinet, do you think my son can be the prince?
Tianshun Zhu Qizhen: Cabinet? Your hands are stretched too far! I am the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, you will regret it!
Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen: Who said the cabinet was papery? In my case, it is just paper!
Zhu Youtang, Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty: My lords of the cabinet, if you see what is wrong with me, I will correct it.

Zhengde Zhu Houzhao: Cabinet, please don’t touch me!
Jiajing Zhu Houcong: Cabinet, you are not very polite! I'm here to teach you what politeness is!

and so……

Emperor Hongzhi's connivance finally made them drift. Does the emperor not take it seriously?

In the end, Zhu Houzhao couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to imitate Zhu Yuanzhang again and carry out an act of abolishing the prime minister? Abolish the cabinet?
Are they still impatient?
Although Zhu Houzhao didn't dare, he was young. Young people do things regardless of the consequences and only care about their own comfort!

Could it be that just because I had been walking on thin ice all my life and was so cautious about my career, I had to get to where I am today because of a momentary willfulness of a sixteen-year-old boy that completely ruined decades of hard work?

The development process of the Ming Dynasty cabinet flashed back in retrospect.

While Yang Tinghe was reflecting, a third thought came to his mind.

Will all his life's efforts be wasted?
Is this the final step towards the peak of power?
He passed the provincial examination at the age of twelve and became a Jinshi at the age of nineteen. After eight years of Chenghua and eighteen years of Hongzhi, twenty-six years of hard work, the family's investment was going to be in vain?
Why should everything be reduced to nothing because of a momentary willfulness of a sixteen-year-old boy?
"No! Your Majesty must not be allowed to establish another cabinet in Jinling!"

"This cannot be allowed! Your Majesty is completely denying the efforts of our cabinet over the years!"

"Why does he do that!?"

In an instant, Yang Tinghe yelled subconsciously, and he didn't know where the strength came from. He even felt a wave of anger rushing from the soles of his feet to his forehead, which made him recover from the blow.

An inexplicable crisis also completely woke him up.

This roar stunned Xie Qian and all the officials who hurriedly rescued Liu Jian, and their attention was attracted by him.

Then, after seeing the determination in Yang Tinghe's eyes, Xie Qian, who was a little shocked for a moment, also reacted.

"Yes! Jiefu is right! Your Majesty must not be allowed to establish another cabinet!"

"He is completely denying all of our efforts!"

"Don't panic, everyone, calm down first! Think of a way, think of a charter..."

"Yes! Then, who..."

"Didn't you just talk about Yang Yiqing's memorial about the unstable border?"

"Yes! Rush to Jinling within 800 miles! Directly inform His Majesty of the Mongolian invasion and ask His Majesty the Emperor to guard the country!"

"Let your Majesty come back quickly!"

In desperation, Xie Qian really thought of a way. At present, he can only use this method to force Zhu Houzhao to come back.

Didn't he always want to fight?

Then create a fight for him!
Even if there are no conditions for this battle, we must create conditions for him to fight!
