Chapter 809 There are many tricks in Beijing, I want to go back to the countryside
In the Wenhua Hall, the atmosphere is a little subtle.
"Aren't you hiding my clumsiness like me?" the prince looked at the fourth child and asked.
"It's really not true. Don't you always teach me how important it is for people to know themselves?" The fourth child quickly said with a smile:
"Not only compared to Xie Lai, but also compared to Lao Liulai, I am far behind in terms of civility and governance."
Lao Liu almost laughed out loud when he heard this. The majestic Emperor Yongle said that he was not as good as others in martial arts. He was really too modest.
Busy suppressed his laughter and said: "Brother, everyone has his own ambitions, so don't force me on my fourth brother."
"Okay." The prince nodded slowly, and then showed his face to the fourth son: "Then we will arrange for you to join the feudal clan after a while."
"Hey, thank you so much, brother!" The fourth child said happily as if he had received an amnesty: "My brother has gone to the north, and I will not embarrass you!"
"Yes. I believe it." The prince smiled and nodded, and added: "I am drafting the list of commanders of the Twelve Guards. In this case, the commander of the Jinyi Guards will be replaced by someone else."
The Fourth and Sixth Lao knew about the Twelve Guards. It was Boss Zhu who planned to take advantage of this time to set up five palaces and change the guards from the direct personal army back to the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.
Preliminary preparations have been made to set up twelve guards to protect the personal army, and the Jinyi Guards are one of them.
"It should be so." The fourth child smiled and nodded: "This Jin Yiwei will be too important in the future. Big brother still has to find a long-term and reliable candidate."
"Yes." Lao Liu also agreed: "We brothers can't work together for a long time, so we still need to find someone who will be long-term."
"Hmm." The prince thought for a moment and asked the two of them, "How is Mao Xiang?"
"Who?!" Lao Si almost jumped up and said, "Isn't that kid a rebel? I almost chopped him up that day."
"Haha, he is not a rebel." The prince shook his head and smiled: "He was raised by his father and will not betray his father."
"Fuck, it's a cunning plan..." The fourth child couldn't help but cursed: "Then, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"How should I say..." The prince hesitated a little.
"Haha, I already told you it was inappropriate." Lao Liu said with a smile to help him out.
"I understand." The fourth child was clear in his heart. If Boss Zhu admitted that Mao Xiang was one of his own, wouldn't it be clear that he was fishing for law enforcement and deliberately luring Hu Weiyong to rebel?
Now that Zhongshu has been withdrawn and the overall situation has been decided, Boss Zhu doesn't care about mere lies. Of course, he must give Mao Xiang fair treatment.
"..." The fourth child didn't ask any more, but his heart was overturned as ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past.
It is now clear that Hu Weiyong's rebellion had long been anticipated by his father, and was even deliberately promoted by him.
In fact, the latter possibility is more likely. After the review, we can clearly see that the father made up his mind to depose the prime minister and withdraw the Central Secretary last year when he bombarded the Ji'an Marquis Mansion and Hu Weiyong led the ministers to force the palace.
.
But things like deposing a prime minister and withdrawing a letter from the Central Committee require irrefutable and sufficient reasons. Perhaps and only the prime minister's rebellion is the most suitable.
Therefore, my father not only killed Hu Tianci, but also asked Hu Weiyong to personally supervise the execution, which was to force him onto the path of rebellion.
After that, whether Chen Ning was transferred to Zhongshu Province, or Ding Yu was appointed as the left governor, or he instigated Mao Xiang to pretend to accept Hu Weiyong's win over, they were all designed to create conditions and build confidence for Hu Weiyong.
It is estimated that my father, a workaholic, suddenly went to Tangshan to soak in the hot springs, and even took his eldest brother with him, just to make Hu Weiyong feel that the opportunity was too late and not come back, so that he could take action as soon as possible.
Father's routine is so deep, no wonder Lao Liu calls him an old thief when he is angry, it is really appropriate...
Of course, he could only think about these malicious speculations by himself, and he would not dare to talk to Lao Liu.
However, this once again verifies the correctness of what the princess said, "Hide your humbleness, bide your time, and gain vassal status as soon as possible."
The fourth child finally firmly determined not to wade through the muddy waters of the capital...
~~
When the three brothers came to Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was still busy.
When he saw his sons arriving, he happily put down the work at hand, stretched his arms and stood up and said:
"Come on, I'm so happy today. Let the four of us have a good drink!"
"Okay." The brothers hurriedly responded and invited my father to the table.
"Remove the wine cup, it's sour, replace it with a wine bowl!" After Zhu Yuanzhang sat down, he felt that the wine cup was too small to hold his happiness tonight.
Eunuch Wu quickly brought the wine bowls and filled four of them for me.
"Come on, let's go first!" Zhu Yuanzhang happily picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
The three brothers also quickly drank it all. Zhu Yuanzhang wiped his mouth and looked at Lao Liu who was sitting at the bottom with pride and said:
"Hahaha, Lao Liu, are you convinced? What does it mean to be ginger or old to be spicy? You are still too young, learn from it..."
"Yes, yes." Lao Liu rolled his eyes secretly upon hearing this, knowing that this was going to happen.
Boss Zhu drank three bowls of wine and started boasting more and more proudly. The problem was that he just boasted, and he also derogated Lao Liu from time to time.
"Those three reforms in Chun Li made a fool of himself and hanged himself. If Hu Weiyong hadn't had other ideas at the time, you would have been beaten to death."
"Ah, yes, yes," Lao Liu said angrily.
"If you are not modest, you will not make progress..." Boss Zhu said with a loud tongue:
"Look at your dad, these two things we have to do are much more difficult than your three reforms, right? Look at how beautifully I have done it. I have been hiding for thousands of miles without making a move. Once I take action, I won't give them any chance to fight back!" He was beaming. He patted his chest and said:
"This is the real strategist, you are still young."
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaedaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Lao Liu was perfunctory and speechless. Why do you have to belittle others by bragging about yourself? Even if you want to belittle someone, you cant just expose a person to sell goods.
The prince couldn't stand it anymore, and to be fair, he said: "This time, the fourth and sixth brothers also made great efforts. Without them having done enough work in advance, today's court meeting would not have gone so smoothly."
"Hey, you three guys, why don't you blame me for committing such crimes and end up in jail?" Boss Zhu said with a happy smile: "You were so angry with us a few days ago that you were so embarrassed."
The fourth and sixth sons said to themselves, we don’t have the guts. If we say something unpleasant, the soles of our shoes will be thrown in our faces. We are still arguing...
"It was the son who contradicted the father, not the two of them." The prince smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, even now, the son still feels that this reform 'abolition of Zhongshu and dividing the power into six departments' has greatly upgraded the status of the six departments, and the power of the six ministers is definitely
A rising tide lifts all boats, and they don’t resist it from the bottom of their hearts, and even welcome it.”
As he spoke, he sighed softly and said, "Maybe they will agree without using that method."
"No." Zhu Yuanzhang categorically shook his head and said: "If you tell them carefully, they will definitely not agree. Officialdom is not a battlefield. It is about human relations and worldliness, and party members agree with each other and reject differences. They have to consider the interests of their fellow party members. And they also count on themselves.
One day I can go to the palace to pay homage to the prime minister. Even if I can't eat for a while, I can't let you smash the pot."
