Early in the morning, Wuying Palace is bathed in the morning light.
"The Duke of Cao, Li Wenzhong, the Duke of Song, Feng Sheng, the Duke of Wei, Deng Yu, and the Prime Minister on the right, Hu Weiyong, come to see you." Eunuch Wu sang loudly.
Four civil and military leaders came into the hall and kowtowed to Boss Zhu, who was sitting on the dragon throne.
"Here you are, please get up." Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was as usual and he ordered: "Give me a seat."
The palace attendants brought the brocade pier to the table. After the four of them thanked him, they coincidentally took advantage of the opportunity to sit down and take a peek at the emperor.
Unexpectedly, the row of east window sash that is usually closed was opened today. The bright morning sun shone in and turned into straight beams of light hitting the throne.
The emperor's face was also hidden in the morning light, making them unable to see Boss Zhu's expression clearly.
But if you think about it, you will know that the emperor must not have a good face. They know how big a blow the strike on the construction of Zhongdu will be to the emperor.
At the same time, the four of them are all old cousins of Fengyang, and they also know how big a blow the failure to move the capital will be to the Huaixi Group.
This was the first time the emperor summoned him since he returned to Beijing, so one can imagine how delicate the atmosphere was...
After the four of them sat down, they quickly looked at their noses and eyes, waiting for the emperor to speak.
"Have you heard about what happened in my hometown?"
"I heard it." Li Wenzhong nodded.
"Alas, we came back in good spirits, but in bad luck." Zhu Yuanzhang said depressedly: "This result is very uncomfortable."
The three princes didn't know how to play it correctly. Fortunately, Mr. Hu was there.
"The emperor's benevolence, consideration for the people, self-discipline and self-discipline are incomparable, which is really a blessing to the people." Hu Weiyong hurriedly respectfully continued: "I believe Mr. Han and others can now appreciate the painstaking efforts of the superiors."
The three gentlemen secretly envied her for being so eloquent...
"I hope. We can't force Lao Li..." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed. After all, he not only ruined his dream of moving the capital, but also roasted his nephew, cleaned him and threw him to his family, who hated him so much.
The treatment of civilian husbands.
Ordinarily, this is the case, and we should continue to do it without stopping, even killing Lao Li. But Lao Li is Lao Li after all, so it is not difficult to kill him rashly, but the consequences are really unpredictable.
So Zhu Yuanzhang had to take it step by step. After a few simple greetings, he told the four people the purpose of today's summons:
"Let's not talk about the bad things in my hometown. We have an idea. Let me tell you about it and you can read it in detail."
"Your Majesty, please speak." The four people hurriedly made a sign of listening.
"We are going to change the provincial capital guards into the capital command and envoy departments." Zhu Yuanzhang said.
When Hu Weiyong heard that it was not a matter of Zhongshu Province, he relaxed and watched the play.
However, the three gentlemen all looked solemn.
In the early days of the Republic of China, the imperial court established governor's offices in each province. The officials were the same as those in the governor's office, and they were responsible for the military affairs of a province. Later, it was changed to Duwei, which means that the whole province's defense posts were under the control of the imperial court. In terms of the control of Duwei, the rank was quite different.
Heavy, so the imperial court, that is, the governor's office, chose to upgrade the tune, and it was not allowed to be hereditary.
The three princes are currently in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
Deng Yu asked in confusion: "Is there any difference between Duwei and Dusi when it comes to superior positions?"
"There are two differences. One is the different affiliations. Originally, the capital guards were under the jurisdiction of each province. The governor-general only had the power of appointment and dismissal, and did not have the right to directly mobilize the troops of the provinces." Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "After these few years, it seems that this is not good. The governor-general
There is a layer between the government and the capital, so it is easy for the court to fail to coordinate.
"Furthermore, the power of each province is already heavy. If the military power is controlled again, it will become an independent kingdom. If things go on like this, the imperial court will be weak and strong. How can it last long?"
"Yes." The four people nodded quickly and heard the emperor continue:
"This also makes the connection between the imperial guards and the imperial court too weak. If things go on like this, they will become independent kingdoms."
Seeing that Boss Zhu was speaking so seriously, none of the three gentlemen dared to express objections.
"So we plan to separate the Duwei from the provinces and rename them Dusi, directly under the Dudufu. What do you think?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his three military leaders and asked.
The three gentlemen looked at each other and expressed no objection.
They are in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, so naturally they want the Governor's Zhili very much. They have long been fed up with the annoying experience of being pushed around by the provinces when they want to mobilize the troops of the provincial guards.
"Then what's the other difference between being in a higher position?" Deng Yu asked cautiously.
"The Dusi itself will no longer have direct jurisdiction over the troops. The original troops directly under the Duwei will be split into several guard posts." Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly:
"That's another difference."
When Boss Zhu said this, the fool also understood. Compared with the Du Wei, the Du Si was completely weakened... From a military leader who commanded the troops of a province, it was reduced to a management organization like the Dudu Mansion.
Although this is a long-term military system reform, at this moment, it is a weakening of Huaixi's nobles.
Because most of the commanders and envoys in each province are from Huaixi...
~~
"How about it, tell me what you think?"
After hearing what the emperor said, the three dukes looked at each other. If the only difference was the first one, they would have welcomed him with their hands raised.
But the second one is different, it’s really offending...
"Why don't you say anything? Do you have any opinions?" Zhu Yuanzhang named him and said, "Bao'er, you speak first."
The eldest nephew Li Wenzhong's nickname is the same as Ping'an. He quickly stood up and said: "Uncle, after changing the name to Chengdu, does the power of the provincial commanders and envoys become much smaller than before?"
He is in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and there are some things he has to say.
"In wars, the governors dispatch troops and generals, and the governors are in charge of military training in peacetime. Why do you need so much power?" Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly: "If you have too much power, wouldn't you be the military governor of the Tang Dynasty?"
"Yes, I understand." Li Wenzhong nodded and stopped talking.
"Bo Yan, what do you think?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked Deng Yu again, Deng Boyan said.
Deng Yu, who had always been simple and cautious, had already heard that the emperor had actually made up his mind a long time ago. Now he was not discussing with them at all, but just notifying them in advance before officially issuing the edict.
"The superior sage, I have no objections. I only have a few suggestions. Dusi is a military organization. The establishment does not need to be limited to provincial divisions. It may be established according to needs. For example, places such as Liaodong and Wanquan are currently sparsely populated and are not enough to establish
For a province, can we first establish a capital department to command the garrison, guard the border and cultivate the villages, and also manage the civil affairs, criminal prisons and prisons?" He said in an orderly manner.
After hearing this, the other three secretly scolded Duke Wei for being an old fox. Their words not only clearly supported the emperor, but also gave the local generals some room for change. They were not offended on both sides and were accountable to both sides.
"Me too..." What else could Duke Song say? He could only say in a low voice.
As for Hu Weiyong, Duwei or Dusi had nothing to do with him, so he would naturally not go against his superiors.
"Then the matter is settled." Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice: "Hu Weiyong, let Zhongshu Sheng prepare the documents and issue the decree tomorrow morning."
"Yes, superior." Hu Weiyong responded respectfully.
ps. There are still two updates today. I am extremely sorry. I will adjust it as soon as possible...
