Hu Weiyong is now very proud. Despite Yang Xian's suppression, the Huaixi Party has moved closer to him. After all, Li Shanchang is now keeping a low profile, and he is the only one in the civil service group who can have a chance to compete with Yang Xian.
Zhu Biao put down the paper in his hand. The imperial court had indeed a big problem now. The most important thing was that they believed too much in their friendship with the emperor, and still regarded Zhu Yuanzhang as their eldest brother, a leader of the rebel army.
I thought that everyone was good brothers and had to be loyal. Unfortunately, this was not what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to see. What he wanted to establish was a dynasty with rules and honors, not a bandit village where heroes gathered together.
Therefore, it is inevitable to take back military power, but once power is given to others, it becomes their heart, liver, spleen and lungs, and they cannot be without it for a day.
If you want to completely take it back now, it is the same as cutting open the chest and cutting the flesh with a machete. Whoever has mastered this thing since ancient times can willingly hand it back. Without power, who else below will please and flatter you in every possible way.
How many people have been willing to give up their power and live in seclusion throughout the ages? This matter cannot be solved without bloodshed. Zhu Biao ordered Nuan Yu to put it away, and then got up and went to the Wenhua Hall to read for a while.
Zhu Biao looked through the history books and found that whether to kill the founding heroes was not a question of whether the emperor wanted to, but whether he needed it. And a founding emperor generally had to meet several conditions in order to not need to kill the heroes.
The first is that he has great talents and great strategies, and is a master in conquering and governing the world. In this way, there is no question of being superior to the master, and his subordinates and military officers are sincerely convinced. This is what Zhu Yuanzhang has, as well as Qin Shihuang, Han Guangwu, Tang Taizong, Song Taizu and others.
, Comrade Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty suffered a bit at this point.
The second is to come from a wealthy family and have noble blood. Don’t underestimate this. In feudal society, this is very important. Orthodoxy has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for a long time. No one will believe the probability and probability of a commoner becoming an emperor before there is a fait accompli.
The rationality will be greater than that of a noble.
Before the world was pacified, people, at least most of the nobles, would regard you as a bandit or a traitor, despise you, doubt you, or even oppose you. However, it is different when a noble rebels. Everyone is more likely to accept him as the new emperor.
, this is a problem of inherent dignity and inferiority.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not have this, and his background shocked a group of people. Qin Shihuang and Han Guangwu were both royal families, Li Shimin came from a powerful family of the Guanlong Li clan, and was actually a relative of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin's family had been generals for generations.
, there is no problem with family background.
This was actually very fatal in ancient times. Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang suffered from this loss. At the beginning, the wealthy families did not buy their account, which caused people's hearts to wander and made them worry about whether they would die in the second generation. After all, the lessons of the Qin Dynasty
Right in front of you.
The third is to predict your own health. If the founding emperor is in good health and younger than those arrogant generals, then there is no need to worry.
Just like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Li Shimin was only 27 years old when he became emperor, while most of the heroes were in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and basically all died before them, so Li Shimin had the opportunity to draw pictures of heroes in his later years.
Something to remember in Lingyan Pavilion.
Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Bang and others were at a disadvantage in this regard. They were quite young when they conquered the world, and were no younger than the founding heroes. Who knows, one day the dragon will rule the sky, so they eagerly massacred those who had the ability.
Arrogant warriors with too much prestige.
The fourth is the prediction of his successor. If the next emperor has enough prestige and ability to conquer the world, then he can naturally solve the problem peacefully. This is actually very important. Zhu Biao’s performance in history
Not bad, but it has not yet met Zhu Yuanzhang's expectations, and the Zhu family has no foundation and lacks loyal retainers.
The fifth point is the most important point, that is, the founding emperor's own character. Zhu Yuanzhang's journey to gain power was too difficult. His blood and tears every step of the way made his character a bit extreme. He was extremely sensitive to his hard-won power and could not tolerate his ministers.
They touch.
Han Guangwu has a relatively tolerant personality. Of course, this person is a cheater. Zhu Biao also expressed that he cannot understand his fantasy journey. This is too fateful.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, it was not too difficult for them to conquer the world. After all, they already had enough advantages, and they would not go to extremes if they could gain it easily.
Zhu Biao put down the book. It is not easy to resolve the matter peacefully, but Zhu Biao will still try his best. Some people want to be eliminated, but he will not let Zhu Yuanzhang leave a name of being mean and unkind in history.
Now among these five, his father has the advantage in three of them: one, three, four. Zhu Yuanzhang is not lacking in abilities, and his physical fitness is one of the best in the profession of emperor. Zhu Biao believes that he can also overwhelm nobles.
As for the second item, the world has been decided. As long as Zhu Biao can successfully take over, the Zhu Ming royal family will be the most noble bloodline in the world. Only the fifth item is troublesome. How can a person's character be easily changed, let alone Zhu Yuanzhang's?
will.
However, as Zhu Biao's abilities were revealed, Zhu Yuanzhang did become a lot calmer. His son was a versatile man in both civil and military affairs, and his power and strategizing skills seemed to have been given by heaven. He could discuss political situations with him when he was only a teenager. Although his personality was kind, he was not ruthless.
Being determined and decisive enough when necessary was what made Zhu Yuanzhang most gratified.
Both father and son are working hard for each other silently. After all, the emperor is a lonely man. The relationship between father and son is the result of the right time, right place and right people.
Zhu Yuanzhang now has many sons, but he never pays too much attention to them. Even when he sees his newborn son, his blood is not as excited as when he first saw his eldest son.
Zhu Biao put down his book, stood up and stretched, and walked out of the Wenhua Hall. The sky was already getting dark. Liu Jin said from the side: "Master, if you don't come out, the servants will go in to treat you. If you don't eat, your body will be in trouble."
No."
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "Okay, let's go and pass the food."
Liu Jin said cheerfully: "It has been heated in the small kitchen of the East Palace for a long time. I will sit down first and my servant will bring it to you."
The weather was already very hot, and now it was getting cooler. Zhu Biao didn't want to sit in the house anymore, so he simply walked to the pavilion, and soon one meal after another was served.
Shrimp with pepper and vinegar, roasted goose, lamb head and hooves with fire, goose meat, salted drum and mustard sheep tripe plate, garlic vinegar white blood soup, five-flavor steamed chicken, yuan juice lamb bones, spicy vinegar kidneys, steamed fresh fish, five-flavor steamed
Zhu Biaoyi frowned. This was too much. Although he was indeed very hungry now, there were definitely too many dishes to finish. It was enough for several people to eat. Even Zhu Yuanzhang and his family of three would not be willing to eat it when they ate in Kunning Palace.
so much.
Although it sounds a bit pretentious, Zhu Biao now really has a sense of responsibility as a prince. He doesn't want the people to have nothing to eat while he wastes money and fish.
