Chapter 0089: Using your own things to win over your own officials?!

He couldn’t help but look solemn:”That potato, there won’t be any problem, right?”

“There is nothing wrong with the potato, but it is the DPRK that has the problem.”

Zhu Heng said seriously:”Around the beginning of next year, there will be big changes in the situation in the DPRK.”

“The emperor will kill people”

“The blood flowed like a river”

“At least one-third of the Manchu officials died”

“If you don’t want to be implicated, just leave quickly.”

Zhu Biao and Zhu Di were both confused, and subconsciously turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang.

Father, are you going to make such a big fuss?

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless and shook his head slightly.

Kill the ass.

Why didn’t we know that we wanted to kill so many people? People?

Kill so many officials.

Will the court continue to function?

“Where did this rumor come from?……”

Zhu Di said helplessly:”Although the emperor is strict with officials, he is not a king of Jie and Zhou who kills officials indiscriminately.”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Heng with interest:”Tell me how you can tell that the situation in the court has changed drastically.”

Don’t talk about anything else.

Zhu Heng made a miscalculation.

Can Zhu Heng know better than himself what he will do in the future?

His eldest son has always made perfect calculations, and it gave Zhu Yuanzhang a strange feeling to see him make a mistake.

It seems that Zhu Heng at this moment is not the immortal who never makes mistakes.

But people.

If Zhu Di and other sons make mistakes, Zhu Yuanzhang will be angry and refuse to fight.

But it’s fun when Zhu Heng makes mistakes!

Zhu Heng did not show off, and said directly:”Today when the emperor conferred the title of god, he killed sixteen nobles, don’t you think there is anything wrong?”

“This is what you’re talking about……”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he suddenly realized and said funnyly:”Did this scare you?”

“The emperor said at the time that they violated the national law and assassinated the Potato Fairy. Of course, the emperor did not know who the Potato Fairy was.”

“But I heard that those sixteen nobles once wanted to take the potatoes as their own, and the emperor took advantage of the situation to accuse them.”

Zhu Heng interrupted directly:”This is just an excuse for the emperor to kill them!”

“real reason”

“It is the emperor who wants to massacre the entire Huaixi noble group represented by Hu Weiyong!”

“Starting early next year, the carnage will begin”

“No, it should have started now!”

“Killing sixteen nobles was just the prelude to this massacre.”

Speaking of this,

Zhu Heng’s face became solemn, he stared at Zhu Yuanzhang and said:”This is an unprecedented official massacre.”

“If you don’t want to be attacked by everyone, run away quickly. Run 097 as far away as possible.”

“Don’t get involved with nobles”

“Don’t look at them now, they are blooming with flowers and cooking oil with blazing fire.”

“That’s a bunch of dead bones in the grave!”

“The first among them is Huaixi leader, Hu Weiyong!”

“This case will be the largest case since the founding of the People’s Republic of China”

“I call it…the Hu Weiyong case!”

After saying this, Zhu Yuanzhang and others all looked strange. He looked at Zhu Heng, who had a serious face, and said what he said in a decent manner.

It seemed that he really saw the scene of the nobles in Huaixi bleeding into rivers.

It seemed that it was really The same thing.

But

I will kill those Huaixi nobles?

Why can the Huaixi nobles become Huaixi nobles?

That is because they are from Huaixi!

They are in the position they are today because of their support.

What qualifications did Hu Weiyong and his group have to anger him?

Even let him raise a butcher’s knife to them?

“Brother, our emperor is different from the previous emperor.

Now Zhu Di smiled and said:”Nothing in the history of imperial power is greater than the Ming Dynasty, and no history of dynasty stability is greater than that of the Ming Dynasty.””

“It can be said that the Ming Dynasty was the dynasty least likely to kill its founding heroes.”

“Some insights.”

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhu Di, nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Zhu Heng, as if he was a father educating his son:”The reason why Han Xin was killed by Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was because Han Xin was so powerful that he shocked the emperor.”

“Today’s emperor is just like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. He himself was the greatest contributor to the founding of the country. Why should he kill the hero again?”

“Even if we don’t talk about Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, we only talk about Hu Weiyong. In terms of merit, qualifications, and status, there are people like Xu Da who are looking down on him.”

“What qualifications does he have to cause tens of thousands of people to be massacred?”

After saying this,

Zhu Biao also advised:”Brother Zhu, it is a good thing for you to be cautious, but now you are so cautious that you are unreasonably worried.

But at this time,

Zhu Heng looked at the three people speechlessly and said,”You all believe that the emperor will not kill people, right?””

“Now let me ask you a question”

“Do you believe in the emperor or me?”

Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately stunned. What kind of question is this?

How can we still not believe ourselves?

But… when he was about to speak, he hesitated for a while.

If someone else asked this question, he would not consider whether to believe it or not, but what kind of death he would give him. The method is better.

If you dare to compete with the emperor, you will die.

But this is Zhu Heng…

Zhu Heng has always been lazy. When he took out the potatoes, he was calm and calm, but now he is. But it was so serious that even Zhu Yuanzhang was a little shaken.

Did Zhu Heng really see something?

“You have to give a reason, right?

Zhu Yuanzhang was hesitant, frowned and said:”After all, it’s not appropriate for us to leave Beijing just after being ennobled.””

“Reason?”

At this time, Zhu Heng’s face was calm and calm, and he sat quietly in the rocking chair.

He raised his eyes and looked at the distant sky in the gap between the grape vines, as if looking towards the future, with a deep meaning in his eyes, slowly He opened his mouth and said:”The imperial power is unstoppable.”

“Prime minister must give way”

“Is this reason enough?”

“The power of the prime minister is a threat. We are considering dedicating the cabinet system to the emperor. The emperor will definitely agree.……”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he suddenly realized that Zhu Heng was worried about this.

The cabinet system has not yet been formally established, so he didn’t say much just now.

Now he immediately puts on a patch.

But Zhu Heng’s next words made his expression change.

“Don’t offer any advice now. Even if the emperor now implements a cabinet system, it will actually be of no use and will be harmful rather than helpful.”

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked shocked and almost lost his voice and said that you didn’t say that before. Didn’t you say before that the cabinet system can solve the dispute between the prime minister’s power and the imperial power?

How to change it now?

The problem is… we are already working on it. A cabinet has been established.

Are you telling us this now?

It’s not just him.

Zhu Biao is also panicking:”Is there anything wrong with the cabinet system?”

The cabinet system is a permanent solution. If there is something wrong with it, the descendants will take over!

It is very likely that they will take over!

“There is nothing wrong with the cabinet system itself, but the cabinet system is the result of eliminating the power of the prime minister, not the cause.”

“This sequence must be clarified. The cabinet system is the replacement after the prime minister system is eradicated.”

“Prime Minister Power is not a mysterious term, but a powerful force. Behind the two words Prime Minister Power, there are six ministries, three divisions, censors and officials, and an entire bureaucratic system!”

“The prime minister is just their spokesperson”

“While these people still exist, implementing a cabinet system will only produce two results.”

“First, the cabinet control system has the same name, but the officials below are still using the old system. The final result is that the prime minister system has a different name, but in essence, the prime minister system still continues.”

“Second, the emperor forcibly promoted the cabinet system. The interests of the officials were harmed and they rebelled. There were many obstacles during the implementation period. Until Lao Zhu died, subsequent monarchs could not force the cabinet system, and the cabinet system ended without any problems.”

Listening to Zhu Heng’s analysis, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned for a moment and fell into thinking.

He thought of the New Deal reforms of the past dynasties.

The key to the success or failure of the New Deal reforms lies in whether the monarch has sufficient authority.

For example, Wang Anshi’s reform in the Song Dynasty was repeated many times , causing the reform to become a mess.

In the final analysis, it was because the emperor of the Song Dynasty did not have enough authority to force the New Deal.

After all, the New Deal was to touch interests… and Zhu Heng said before that it is harder to touch interests than to touch the soul.

Of course, he has enough authority to fight against the bureaucratic group, but what about his descendants?

When the bureaucratic group beats him to death, and the cabinet system has not yet stabilized, what will his descendants do

? But the more there was nothing wrong, the more frightened Zhu Yuanzhang was, because he found that there seemed to be only one way to solve this problem.……

“kill?

Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed hard and said bitterly:”There is only one way to solve this problem.””

“start a massacre”

“Only by killing all the courtiers and smashing the court into ruins can the New Deal be rebuilt on the ruins?”

This inference shocked Zhu Di and Zhu Biao.

They naturally thought of this.

But the cost of implementing the cabinet system is so high?

“Wouldn’t that be indiscriminate killing?!

Zhu Biao said anxiously:”Even if Jie and Zhou killed people, they didn’t directly kill half of the court!””

“How could the emperor do such a thing?”

Zhu Di was also stunned, and looked at Zhu Heng in horror:”Just because Prime Minister Quan blocked the way, so many people were killed? This is a lot more killing than killing people on the battlefield.”

He seemed to be able to see���The road to the cabinet system proposed by Zhu Heng was paved with the bones of countless courtiers and stained with blood!

Zhu Heng’s seemingly peaceful cabinet system turned out to be an extremely bloody strategy!

Is Zhu Heng so cruel?

This is much more cruel than killing people on the battlefield!

Zhu Heng said slowly at this moment:”Since ancient times, all reforms have been bloody.”

“The greater the interests affected by the reform, the more blood will be shed.”

“After all, the reform will always touch the interests of some people. Even if a pig is killed, the pig will bark a few times, let alone people. When the reform touches their interests, how can they not resist? Zhu

Yuanzhang was extremely keen:”You mean, once the cabinet system is promulgated, Hu Weiyong will make small moves to resist it?””

Zhu Heng asked back:”How do you think he can wait until it is promulgated before making small moves?”

“In the third year of Hongwu, Hu Weiyong had already served as counselor of Zhongshu Province, and Li Shan was old, so Hu Weiyong actually acted as prime minister for many years.”

“In nine years, is it enough for him to train and manage a large number of his own people?”

“Although the emperor was diligent, his focus in recent years has always been on the Northern Expedition.”

“Most of the promotion, appointment and dismissal of officials below were in the hands of Hu Weiyong.”

“Let’s assume that he is a loyal minister like Zhuge Liang. Although he holds great power, he has no ambiguity.”

“But in objective fact, he has become a powerful minister.”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked ugly.

Zhuge Liang failed to unify the Three Kingdoms in the end, but why was his reputation passed down to future generations?

Because of one word.

Loyalty!

It is precisely because there are so few loyal ministers like Zhuge Liang that all Zhuge Liang’s reputation is so prominent!

And Hu Weiyong, Will he be a loyal minister like Zhuge Liang?

“It is said that the wind started at the end of Qingping, and the phenomenon is a reflection of the essence. Now some of Hu Weiyong’s behaviors can already reflect his ambition.”

Zhu Heng looked at the breeze blowing the leaves on the grape trellis, then smiled slightly and said:”For example, recently, there was an interesting thing.”

“Do you know Wang Guangyang? In recent years, I heard that he is very close to Hu Weiyong”

“Some time ago, Hu Weiyong chose a concubine for him in Jiaofangsi.”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his expression suddenly changed:”Are you sure about this? How do you know such private things?”

This is one of the three major crimes that led to Hu Weiyong’s murder. Of course I know something about it, but Zhu Heng casually gave a very convincing reason:”Nonsense, what don’t I know about this in Jiaofang Tongli? When Zhu

Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately slapped the table angrily and said:”He is so courageous!””

“Who gave him the courage?

But at this time, Zhu Di was stunned and said in a daze:”This is not a big deal, right?””

“Not just a woman……”

The imperial court has regulations. Women in the Jiaofang Division are the family members of criminal officials who have been confiscated by the imperial court, and are specially used to reward meritorious officials.

Wang Guangyang, a civil servant, was not qualified to get such a woman.

But at the end of the day, she is just a woman.

Hu Weiyong went too far, but he wouldn’t make his father so angry. But Zhu Biao’s face was solemn and he said slowly:”It’s a small matter for a woman. The problem is…he did this without telling the emperor.”��”

“Um?

Zhu Di was confused for a while:”What’s wrong?” Just give it to a woman”

“If you don’t understand, don’t talk!”

Zhu Yuanzhang roared angrily, and Zhu Di immediately shrank his head, but he was still extremely puzzled.

At this moment, Zhu Heng smiled slightly and explained:”It’s nothing to give away a woman, but what Hu Weiyong did was inappropriate.”

“It’s just a woman, even if it’s the family member of a criminal official, if Wang Guangyang asks the emperor for it, will the emperor not give it to him?”

“What does Hu Weiyong mean by sending it off?”

“That’s using the emperor’s property to show favor to his officials!”

“This is the biggest taboo in official circles!”

“Grace comes from above! Rather than being kind to the prime minister”

“This is an iron rule. He doesn’t know it. So think about it, why does he do it?”

“and……”

“He did all this without telling the emperor.”

“Tell me, what does he want?”

The words fell.

When Zhu Di heard this, he took a deep breath and said angrily:”Damn it, is this old dog so brave?”

Using your own things to win over your own officials?

It’s like shitting on your father’s face!

Zhu Di couldn’t wait to chop him with a knife!

“Don’t be excited, Hu Weiyong harmed the property of Lao Zhu’s family, and it has nothing to do with us.”

Zhu Heng had a smile on his face, and he had the feeling that he was just watching the fun and not afraid of big trouble…
