Chapter 141 Merit is hard to handle
Hu Weiyong is proud of himself now. Although Yang Xian suppressed him, the Huaixi Party moved closer to him. After all, Li Shanchang is now hiding his strength and biding his time. He is the only one in the civil service group who can meet Yang Xian.
Zhu Biao put down the paper in his hand. The imperial court is really facing a big problem. The most important thing is that they believe too much in their friendship with the emperor. They still regard Zhu Yuanzhang as their elder brother, the leader of an insurgent army.
I thought that everyone was a good brother and should show loyalty, but unfortunately this is not exactly what Zhu Yuanzhang wants to see. What he wants to build is a well-regulated and dignified dynasty, not a bandit cottage where heroes get together.
So it is inevitable to take back the military power, but once the power is given to others, it will be their heart, liver, spleen and lungs, and they will not be short of it for a day.
Now if you want to take it back completely, it is no different from opening your chest and abdomen, cutting your flesh with a machete. Since ancient times, whoever has mastered this thing can willingly hand it back. Without power, who else will flatter and flatter you in every possible way.
Through the ages, how many people are willing to let go of their power and go back to hiding?
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 it, but a question of whether he needed it or not. And a founding emperor generally needs to meet several conditions in order not to kill heroes.
The first is that he has a great talent and strategy. He is a master in both conquering the world and ruling the world. In this way, there is no problem of overpowering the master. The martial arts under his command are sincerely convinced. This is what Zhu Yuanzhang has. There are also Qin Shihuang, Han Guangwu, Tang Taizong and others. Comrade Gao Zu suffered a bit on this point.
The second is to be born in a wealthy family and have a noble blood. Don’t underestimate this article. In feudal society, this is very important. Rationality would be bigger than a nobleman.
Before the world is settled down, people, at least most of the gentry, will regard you as a grassroots bandit, a traitor, despise you, doubt you, and even oppose you, but the rebellion of the nobles is different, and it is easier for everyone to accept him as the new emperor , This is the problem of inherent dignity and dignity.
Zhu Yuanzhang does not have this point, his background can be said to shock the jaws of a group of people. Both Qin Shihuang and Han Guangwu were from the royal family, Li Shimin was from the Guanlong Li family, and he was still a real relative to Sui Yangdi. Zhao Kuangyin's family had been generals for generations, so there was no problem with his background.
This is actually very fatal in ancient times. Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang suffered from this. The aristocratic families did not buy their account at the beginning, which caused people's hearts to fluctuate and made them worry about whether they would die in the second generation. After all, the lesson of the Qin Dynasty right in front of you.
The third is to predict one's own health. If the founding emperor is healthy and younger than those arrogant soldiers, then naturally there is no need to worry.
Just like Tang Taizong and Han Guangwu, when Li Shimin was the emperor, he was only 27 years old, and most of the heroes were in their 40s, 50s, 50s, and 60s, and they basically died before them, so Li Shimin drew pictures of heroes in his later years. Something that Yu Lingyan Pavilion misses.
At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Bang and others are at a disadvantage. They were not young when they won the world, and they were not younger than the founding heroes. They might be able to control Bintian someday, so they eagerly slaughtered those who have the ability The arrogant soldiers with too much prestige.
The fourth is the estimation of his successor. If the next emperor has enough prestige and ability to conquer the world, then naturally he can settle it peacefully with peace of mind. This is actually very important. Zhu Biao's performance in history It's not bad, but it hasn't met Zhu Yuanzhang's expectations, and the Zhu family has no foundation and lacks loyal retainers.
Han Guangwu has a more lenient personality. Of course, this person is a cheater. Zhu Biao also expressed his incomprehension of his fantasy journey, which is too destiny.
Tang Taizong and Song Taizu, it was not too difficult for them to win the world. After all, they already had enough advantages, so they won't go to extremes if they get it easily.
Zhu Biao put down the books. It is not so easy to resolve this matter peacefully, but Zhu Biao will still try his best. Some people want to be cleared, but he will not let Zhu Yuanzhang leave a name of meanness and ungratefulness in history.
Among these five items, his father has the advantage of one, three, four, a total of three. Zhu Yuanzhang is not lacking in his own ability, and his physical fitness is one of the best in the profession of emperor.
As for the second rule, the world has already been decided. As long as Zhu Biao succeeds smoothly, the royal family of Zhu Ming will be the most noble bloodline in the world. Only the fifth rule is troublesome. How can a person’s character be easily changed, let alone Zhu Yuanzhang’s? will.
However, with Zhu Biao's ability revealed, Zhu Yuanzhang has indeed calmed down a lot. His son is an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and his tactics seem to be bestowed by heaven. He can discuss the political situation with him when he is only a teenager. Although his personality is kind, he is not cruel. Make up your mind and make enough decisions when necessary. This is what Zhu Yuanzhang is most gratified about.
Both father and son are working hard for each other silently. After all, the emperor is a lonely family.
Zhu Yuanzhang has quite a few sons now, but he never pays too much attention to them. Even when he sees his newborn son, he doesn't have the blood rush he had when he saw his eldest son for the first time.
Zhu Biao put down the book, stood up and stretched, walked out of the Wenhua Palace, the sky was already getting dark, Liu Jin said from the side: "Master, if you don't come out, I will go in to invite you. If you don't eat, your health will suffer." No."
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "Okay, let's pass on the meal."
Liu Jin said cheerfully: "It's already warmed up in the small kitchen of the East Palace. The master sits down first, and the maidservant will serve it."
The weather is already very hot now, and it will be cooler at night. Zhu Biao didn't want to sit in the house anymore, so he simply walked into the gazebo, and meals were brought out after a while.
Shrimp with pepper and vinegar, roast goose, sheep head and hoof with fire, goose meat, salty mustard lamb tripe plate, garlic and vinegar white blood soup, steamed chicken with five flavors, lamb bones in Yuan juice, kidney with spicy vinegar, steamed fresh fish, steamed with five flavors Gluten gluten, mutton crystal dumplings, goose vermicelli soup, three delicacies soup, mung bean chess piece noodles, minced pepper mutton, fragrant rice, garlic cheese, bean soup, and tea.
Zhu Biao frowned. This is too much. Although I am really hungry now, there are so many dishes that I can’t finish. This is enough for several people to eat. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang’s family of three eats in Kunning Palace, they are not willing to eat. so much.
Although it sounds a little hypocritical, Zhu Biao does have a sense of responsibility as a prince now. He doesn’t want the common people to be unable to eat, and he even wastes big fish and meat casually.
