Have to admit it.

Jiang Xinghuo's words made Zhu Di break his guard.

The cabinet system originated from the fact that Zhu Di summoned Hanlin scholars to organize and distribute memorials for him.

The members of the cabinet, in Zhu Di's era, did not have the power to handle government affairs, they were just Zhu Di's secretaries.

As for why it turned out to be what Jiang Xinghuo said, Zhu Di felt that what Jiang Xinghuo said was pretty much the same.

After all, not everyone has the exuberant energy and tireless interest in government affairs like Zhu Yuanzhang, the great emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di's interest was more in Ming Dynasty's national strategic decision-making and military aspects, and he was not that much interested in government affairs.

Therefore, the establishment of the cabinet is actually a certain necessity.

Otherwise, why have there been "prime ministers" for thousands of years?

To put it bluntly, isn't it because the emperor is too tired to handle government affairs himself and needs to find someone to help him?

It's just that Zhu Di didn't expect it, or he didn't think about it.

He was not interested in government affairs. Will future generations become interested in government affairs when they become emperors?

Impossible, you are lazier than him!

Therefore, the power to handle government affairs was gradually handed over to the cabinet.

In the history of Jiang Xinghuo's previous life, from the draft plan drafted by Sanyang during the Hongxi and Xuande periods to the draft draft drafted by Zhang Juzheng in the early Wanli period, they were almost transformed into the emperor's blueprint for approving Zhu, the importance of cabinet power, and the importance of cabinet positions.

Long, it goes without saying.

Zhu Di was slapped in the face by Jiang Xinghuo's words.

But at this time, it was hard to fall out.

Not only Zhu Di but also Jiang Xinghuo turned to Jiang Xinghuo and waited for Jiang Xinghuo to answer his questions.

More importantly, Zhu Di knew that what Jiang Xinghuo said was very likely to happen, or in other words, it was almost inevitable.

"How did later emperors fight against the civil service system headed by the cabinet?"

Facing Zhu Di's question, Jiang Xinghuo had a faint smile on his lips.

"There are many ways."

"There are those who concentrate on refining elixirs and cultivating Taoism, but do not forget to use the emperor's mind to divide and control civil servants."

"If you are determined to cause trouble and go against the cabinet, you will not go to court for forty years."

"There are also those who hide in the palace and work as carpenters, pushing eunuchs to compete with civil servants."

After hearing Jiang Xinghuo's answer, Zhu Di almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

Zhu Di felt that he had underestimated future generations, but he never expected that the future emperors of the Ming Dynasty in Jiang Xinghuo's mouth were even more outrageous than he expected.

"Ahem... Then please tell me, Mr. Jiang, which of the emperors in later generations used different methods to fight against the civil service system, which one was successful?" Zhu Di coughed twice.

"Don't worry, they all failed."

Jiang Xinghuo said confidently.

Hearing these words, the corners of Zhu Di's mouth twitched.

Zhu Di took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then spoke slowly.

"So what Mr. Jiang is saying is that because of my current measures to establish a cabinet, civil servants will become more powerful in future generations?"

"That's right!"

Jiang Xinghuo looked at Zhu Di and said seriously: "But as I have always emphasized, problems should not be blamed on a certain person, so having said that, although you created the cabinet, even if you did not create it, the Ming Dynasty in future generations

The emperor will also create an external cabinet as an auxiliary organization, and this organization will develop and grow over time."

"So the root of the problem does not lie with the cabinet, but with how to restrict the civil service system."

That is to say, all Jiang Xinghuo's actions, whether it was to inform Zhu Di about the future of the Ming Dynasty or to point out the shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet system and the Weisuo system to Zhu Di, the fundamental purpose was not to strengthen Zhu Di's imperial power, or to give Zhu Di the power of the Ming Dynasty.

Feudal Empire patched.

Jiang Xinghuo's intention is to exchange.

The real dilemma Jiang Xinghuo faces is that if he wants to change the world, he cannot do it by relying solely on his own strength. He must tie the imperial power to his side.

Any political binding undoubtedly requires the exchange of interests and then the formation of a community.

The bargaining chip that Jiang Xinghuo can use in exchange with Zhu Di is that he can fill in the holes that Zhu Di cannot see, has knowledge that Zhu Di cannot get from others, and can predict the future.

The last point is that Jiang Xinghuo left a relatively powerful back-up for himself based on realistic considerations.

Although Jiang Xinghuo’s predictions about the future of all individuals and countries are based on historical records.

But the problem is, Zhu Di doesn’t know! Others don’t know either!

The information they knew was that Immortal Jiang could predict the future, although such predictions were subject to certain conditions and were not arbitrary.

But they didn't know that Jiang Xinghuo couldn't predict the changed future.

Therefore, this awe will always remain in the hearts of Zhu Di and others.

"Then what do I need to do next to prevent this from happening?"

Zhu Di was eager to know this question at this moment.

Is the civil service system really unsolvable?

Is it possible that in the future of the Ming Dynasty, this group of insects will play tricks on it until the country is destroyed?

From the current point of view, even if it is a law, it only plays a restrictive role.

“It’s easy!”

Jiang Xinghuo answered without hesitation.

"They failed because they didn't understand a truth, so they were guessed during the confrontation with the civil service system and subsequently lost. As long as they understand this truth, they can naturally avoid this outcome!"

Hearing this, Zhu Di was stunned. Apparently he didn't understand the deep meaning contained in Jiang Xinghuo's words.

"reason?"

"right!"

"What's the point?" Zhu Di frowned slightly.

"Don't worry about this problem, just do it the way I said, and you will understand soon." Jiang Xinghuo replied.

"Okay, then tell me, what should I do?" Zhu Di said, his eyes burning, as if he was looking forward to Jiang Xinghuo's next answer.

"Close your eyes first." Jiang Xinghuo looked at Zhu Di and said softly.

Hearing this, Zhu Di closed his eyes without any hesitation.

Even if he is blind, in terms of individual strength, a first-class general like Zhu Di can easily deal with ten Jiang Xinghuo, so Zhu Di is not worried that Jiang Xinghuo will be detrimental to him after closing his eyes.

"Now between the two of us, can you see what I'm doing?"

Zhu Di, who closed his eyes, frowned slightly when he heard Jiang Xinghuo's question.

What nonsense is this?

I have closed my eyes, how can I see what you are doing?

But when Zhu Di was about to say these words, suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in Zhu Di's mind.

If you close your eyes, you can't see it.

Then if I can make the civil servants close their eyes and not see each other, can I control the civil service system?

But how to make civil servants close their eyes to each other?

When Zhu Di closed his eyes and fell into deep thought, Jiang Xinghuo's words rang in his ears, waking up the dreamer.

"Information isolation."

This sentence instantly reminded Zhu Di.

Yes, as long as the civil servants do not know what information the other party has told the emperor, suspicion will naturally arise. In this way, the civil service system will scramble to surround the imperial power. Who else can threaten itself?

Zhu Di opened his eyes.

What caught his eyes was Jiang Xinghuo, who was still looking calm.

Zhu Di suspected that Jiang Xinghuo might not have done anything just now.

But when he closed his eyes, he didn't know what Jiang Xinghuo had done, but he was constantly suspicious.

This is the effect of "information isolation".

Now, Zhu Di felt that the whole world had changed.
