Hearing what the old man said, Zhu Yunxi let go of the lingering feeling in his heart. Today's incident was a little unprepared, and he didn't expect that the old man would have an attack directly in the morning meeting.
However, I know the old man's temperament well. If he is told to kill someone, he often doesn't kill him. But he hates a person so much that when he wants to kill someone, he often doesn't say anything at all.
If it weren’t for the late prince, Boren, and our daughter-in-law...!
Zhu Yunxi heard the sound of the old man grinding his teeth.
Grandson!
The grandson is here!
Seeing that the old man had something to say, Zhu Yunxi hurriedly lowered his head and listened.
It's up to you how to deal with him! Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, and he must know how high and thick the sky is!
Zhu Yunxi understood that the old man was using this incident to establish his authority, and also to give him an opportunity to show favor to Lan Yu and others.
Liang Guogong Lan Yu! Zhu Yunxi stood beside the dragon chair and said loudly.
I'm here!
At this time, Lan Yu no longer had the panic. The old prince asked his great-grandson to take care of him, that is, there was still room for him.
I thought to myself, Fuck your grandma Li Jinglong, if you wait until this thing is over, I... I will kill you! If I go on an expedition next time, I will order you to be the vanguard!
As a relative of the emperor and an honorable minister of the Ming Dynasty, you are domineering and unruly by nature, and have been repeatedly impeached by the courtiers. But the emperor thinks that you have made many military exploits, so he is extra tolerant. But you are ungrateful, and you don’t know that the sky is high and the earth is high, and you can stand up for your merits.
Arrogance, lack of consideration for the king and father, and lack of respect for his superiors.
This time the impeachment of the court officials also involved secretly discussing the emperor and his father, and he should be punished with death.
As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi calmed down, and he suddenly realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the palace now. The military generals were all shrinking their necks, for fear of being implicated. However, the civil servants were completely watching the excitement and were not afraid of big trouble.
However, I remember that you have worked hard over the years without any merit, and you have the iron scroll of the Alchemy Book given by the Emperor. I will spare you this one time.
However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided!
The Duke of Liang is the title you fought so hard for, and I will keep it for you! Zhu Yunxi continued to say loudly, "Remove from the position of general, commander-in-chief of all soldiers and horses in the world!"
Take away the title of Prince Shaobao!
Recovered 8,000 acres of land and three farmsteads, dismissed the slaves and servants in the farmhouse and house, and guarded them with servants.
All the imperial gifts from the records of the Twelve Prisons have been taken back!
Hand back the Lumi earned over the years!
Close the door and think about your mistakes, without the holy instructions, you are not allowed to go out, you are not allowed to see guests!
As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi raised his voice. Are you convinced?
How could Lan Yu dare to say he was dissatisfied? In fact, the emperor's grandson had left him a lot of room, and even said that he had given him a lot of room to operate in the future. As long as the title of the Duke of Guo was still there, he, Lan Yu, would still be Huang Ming's noble relative.
Those fictitious official positions will not be easy to obtain as long as they can be turned around in the future. As for money, for a person of his level, the family's property has long been countless.
Sir, thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, and thank you, Your Majesty the Grand Sun, for your kindness!
Wait a minute! The old man suddenly said, hand back your iron scroll of alchemy! As he said that, he sneered, this time, you have already used it!
Lan Yu was stunned and said helplessly, "Master, take the order!"
The decree of today's court meeting will be revealed to the world! Zhu Yunxi continued, "Dong Liang, I hope you will have a good time at home and reflect on it. The monarch and his ministers may not have time to see each other again!"
Your Majesty, I am so grateful! Lan Yu kowtowed.
This matter is not just about Lan Xiaoer! The old man continued the conversation and said to the military commanders and nobles, you should also think carefully about whether you have done anything untoward in private. If you have done something wrong, you will be encouraged. If you let it go,
We get it! Humph!
I obey the order! The generals all shuddered and said.
Start playing, Your Majesty!
Suddenly, someone among the civil servants stood up.
Sure enough, they must have felt that the treatment was too light and wanted to beat up the drowned dog.
The person who came out of the list was none other than Fang Xiaoru, one of Zhu Yunxi's teachers who had just been awarded the Dongge Bachelor degree.
I have my original intention to report! Fang Xiaoru came out with a sonorous voice.
Teacher, don't let off the fire at this time! Zhu Yunxi gave the other party a look repeatedly. The old man's anger had just subsided and he must not be angry anymore. This is Lan Yu, one of his own, not the King of Yan Zhu Di.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the civil servants and said!
My Lord, be brave! Fang Xiaoru Surong took off the Jinxian Crown from his head, placed it on the ground, and then knelt down.
It's over! When Zhu Yunxi saw this posture, Lao Fang was definitely going to use big guns.
Your Majesty, I would like to remind you that history serves as a guide. The domineering warriors of the past dynasties are not a blessing to the country. The long-term stability of the country depends on the internal affairs of the country, the emperor is wise and the ministers are virtuous. The country relies on nourishing the people, being generous to the people, and being light on corvee and low taxes!
Our Ming Dynasty is now vast across the four seas, the world is unified, and the four seas return to the center. It is time to recuperate, recreate the prosperous age of China, and restore the heroic glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties.
In the past, the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty were victorious and heroic. First, they had great martial arts, and secondly, they were assisted by civil servants, who opened up the world and made great use of virtuous ministers.
But now, in the Ming Dynasty, there are military officials and nobles who control the government. In public affairs, they frequently make false claims and carry out killings and expeditions. In private affairs, you are all honorable relatives of the country, and they often commit lawlessness and are above the law of the country.
As he spoke, Fang Xiaoru suddenly raised his voice and continued.
Today’s incident regarding Liang Guogong is just a drop in the ocean!
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up again and continued!
I think that in order to put an end to the domineering behavior of military men, the power of the country and the state of the Ming Dynasty should be placed at the center. I am brave enough to submit a memorial, asking your Majesty to return the military power to the Ministry of War!
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty should be subordinate to the Ming Dynasty, not the warriors and nobles. They should send out troops for expeditions, appoint generals, reward soldiers, reorganize the military equipment, and all the military and military garrison in the world should be brought under the ownership of the Ministry of War.
If there is a war, the ministers will discuss it with His Majesty. Instead of the military nobles making arrogant opinions and inciting Your Majesty to send troops at will!
ah!
After Fang Xiaoru finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion in the hall.
Especially those noble warriors, if it weren't for the old man in front of them, they might have gone up and slapped Fang Xiaoru on the head.
Zhu Yunxi didn't expect it, and thought to himself, Teacher, you are not setting off a firecracker. You are trying to cut off other people's livelihood!
The Ministry of War is the country's highest administrative agency for managing the military.
It stands to reason that the military power in the world and the promotion and scheduling of generals are all in their hands. However, because the old man knew the harm of the civil service system to cannibalization of the army, in order to facilitate the war, he did not quarrel with the civilian officials. Moreover, the power of the founding generals is still very great.
Therefore, the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, the highest staff office of the Ming Dynasty, was superior to the Ministry of War.
In fact, what Fang Xiaoru said is not unreasonable. It is not all about the civil servants being wary of and suppressing the military generals. The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is good, but it depends on who uses it. If the emperor can suppress it, it is a sharp blade;
If you don't stop, there will definitely be trouble.
Moreover, military power is in the hands of the Ministry of War, which is more conducive to centralization. The country's soldiers and horses belong to the country, and the country's generals also belong to the country. Both military expenditures and war plans are more transparent and more segmented.
In addition, in the hearts of Fang Xiaoru and other civil servants, they really did not want the emperor to get too close to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies. Those who were close to Zhu were red and those who were close to Mo were black. They were worried that after Zhu Yunxi ascended the throne in the future, these warriors would instigate another expedition to Mobei.
A battle involving hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.
This worry is not unreasonable. The emperor's grandson has been close to the warriors since he was the king of Wu. Moreover, his origin destined those warriors to have a natural affinity with him.
What Fang Xiaoru said now would not only end the career path of the warrior nobles, but also directly put his concerns about the warrior group into words.
How presumptuous! Zhu Yunxi looked at Fang Xiaoru. The emperor himself said that the military and state affairs are important, and the merits of the generals are indescribable. Bachelor Fang, why don’t you retreat quickly!
As he spoke, he turned his back to the old man and kept winking.
But the next second, he was dumbfounded, and things seemed to be a little out of control.
I only saw Shen Jin, the Minister of the Ministry of War, Fu Youwen, the Minister of the Ministry of Households, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments. In addition to the official Zhan Hui, there were even the censors on the left and right of the Inspectorate, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. , a large group of civil servants such as Hanlin Academy bachelors, central ministers, etc., accounting for almost 70% of the civil servants, all knelt down.
I second my opinion!
Your Majesty, please grant military power to the Ministry of War!
The soldiers and generals of the Ming Dynasty are the soldiers and generals of the country, and the ministers are the ministers of the country. How can they be excluded from the military?
It’s broken! Zhu Yunxi’s heart skipped a beat, what medicine did these civil servants take today? Are they so united? The old man’s temperament can only be followed, and he has to support it in such a big way at the court meeting. Are these people impatient with life? Or do they think the old man is old? Already, relenting?
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi realized something in his heart.
Because he saw the eyes of several leading bachelors, these people were his teachers in the East Palace, and they all held official positions in the Zhanshifu of the East Palace.
Another warmth arose in Zhu Yunxi's heart.
They are actually doing it for themselves!
The emperor is getting old, and sooner or later he will be the master of this country. For the stability of the country, for the stability of his throne, and for the stability of the court.
These people naturally don't want something like Lan Yu to happen to them again. They don't want to see themselves having to worry about how to deal with these nobles in the future.
Ah!
Behind him, the old man also laughed.
Zhu Yunxi turned around and saw that the old man pursed his lips tightly and squinted his eyes. There was only a slight gap between his lips when he spoke.
Today, it’s so fucking evil! Everyone is trying to contradict us! Zhu Yuanzhang’s squinted eyes suddenly widened. Are you tired of living?
