First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 180
The rest of the people were celebrating, but Zhu Biao and Chang Luohua started a new period of torture. They kowtowed about [-] or [-] heads in a circle in the ancestral temple, and each head had to get up and kowtow again. In short, Lao Zhu The ancestors searched for as many as they could count.

Then the two came out in a daze, Zhu Biao glanced at the person next to him and felt inexplicably fettered, no matter what in this life, no one would surpass her again.

This is his original concubine, even if she dies, there will only be a second concubine in the future, and it is absolutely impossible to do so solemnly, let alone enter the ancestral temple to worship.

It will only be recorded in history that Zhu Biao, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, married Chang Luohua, the prince and concubine of Kaiping Wangfu, in the third year of Hongwu, and became the wife of the Zhu family.

Chang Luohua also seemed to feel her husband's heart, and moved a little closer silently, but it's a pity that the two of them are precious, and it is impossible to walk hand in hand like a young couple. Chang Luohua can only be half a step behind Zhu Biao at most.

Zhu Biao sent Chang Luohua to the East Palace, turned around and said to her, "Go back to the palace to rest, I have something to do, don't wait for me for dinner, and I will accompany you back home tomorrow morning."

Chang Luohua nodded with a smile, then saluted Zhu Biao's back, watching the noble young man lead a group of people far away, as if there were stars floating in her eyes.

Zhu Biao didn't know what his little wife was thinking. He now felt that he didn't have enough time. The summer was coming to an end, and the materials prepared by the Ministry of Industry for the relocation were almost ready, and he was about to leave soon.

But there are still many things in the capital that have not been dealt with, and these have to be arranged. Just like Li Shanchang, he has suffered a lot of attacks from the literary world recently because he did not stand up to speak for Mencius. It is estimated that when Zhu Biao comes back, he They all retired to their hometowns.

Therefore, Zhu Biao must control some handover matters. After Li Shanchang abdicates, Yang Xian must come to power. The confrontation between the Zhedong Party and the Huaixi Party will intensify. Yang Xian now has Zhu Yuanzhang’s support, so he feels that the emperor will definitely support him , after all, Huaixi Xungui's power is too huge.

It's a pity that Yang Xian didn't know that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to play a big game of chess. Yang Xian and the Zhedong Party were just abandoned sons, just to stimulate the nobles of Huaixi and let them reveal their background.

As long as he has figured out the foundation of this behemoth, Zhu Yuanzhang will be able to attack in a targeted manner. There are too many lawless people among the nobles in Huaixi, and they must be cleaned up. Only in this way can Zhu Yuanzhang give himself the power of the nobles with peace of mind son.

What Zhu Biao has to do is to take over a group of people from Li Shanchang and arrange them to leave this vortex. As the basis for Zhu Biao to take over the noble power in the future, he must give priority to selecting young and talented people with good conduct. If there are two more Sapphires It was too late for Zhu Biao to wipe his butt every day.

Now the power of Huaixi Xungui has been slowly transferred to Hu Weiyong's hands, but Li Shanchang is not Hu Weiyong's biological father, so he naturally keeps the most important people in his hands, or else he is cunning and cunning.

Li Shanchang handed over the most dangerous and uncontrollable people to Hu Weiyong. As a person who wants to get their support, Hu Weiyong must first meet their requirements, which will attract Zhu Yuanzhang's attention.

In this way, Li Shanchang can sit safely in the official residence and play chess and scores. This method is not available to ordinary people, and only Liu Bowen, who also handed over the power of the East Zhejiang Party to Yang Xian, while he and Yang Xian It broke openly, and he only took care of a few censors, and didn't care about the affairs of the Eastern Zhejiang Party.

So young people are still a little tender. Zhu Biao walked to Zhongshu Province and met Yang Xian and others on the way. Naturally, he was polite. Although it is not as good as Li Shanchang now, it will be long in the future.

When Zhu Biao and his wife were in the ancestral temple, the banquet in the palace was over, so Zhu Biao met many officials congratulating him along the way, and Zhu Biao couldn't ignore it. After many times, I finally arrived at Li Shanchang's house and got a list from him.

Zhu Biao took a rough look at it, and most people's titles are not high, so it is better, so that Zhu Biao can also be rewarded in the future, like Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Li Shanchang and others, they have already come to an end, there is no seal, only rewards Gold and silver appeared insincere again.

Zhu Biao closed his eyes and calculated for a while, then said to Li Shanchang: "The Marquis of Yan'an, Marquis of Ji'an, Marquis of Nan'an, Marquis of Yongjia, Marquis of Runan, Marquis of Henan, Marquis of Pingliang, Marquis of Nanxiong, etc. are under Hu Weiyong's command?"

Li Shanchang smiled and said: "They are all marquises who have been born in hundreds of battles. They will not surrender to anyone except the Holy One and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is just because of the limitations of being a military commander that they are looking for a spokesperson for a civil servant."

Zhu Biao has no expression on his face. These people are good fighters in war, but how can they be Li Shanchang Hu Weiyong's opponent in politics? head.

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "These people are the backbone of the imperial court. It would be unbearable to lose this palace like this."

Li Shanchang comforted: "These people have made a lot of military exploits, but their tempers are not small. If they really care about it, they have more or less done some illegal activities. It's just because they are from Huaixi and there are many brothers in the army, so Only then was the penalty avoided.”

Zhu Biao pondered for a while and asked, "How many can you pick at most?"

These people will be purged if they don't care, Zhu Biao would rather let them die on the battlefield than let them be beheaded meaninglessly, let alone they can go too far than Sapphire?

Li Shanchang didn't try to persuade him, but thought carefully: "At most three of them can be protected. Your Highness has the martial arts to destroy the country, which is enough to deter the generals. If you want to come to the Holy Majesty, you will also consider this point."

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said, "The Marquis of Yan'an, the Marquis of Pingliang, and the Marquis of Nanxiong."

In fact, the value of Zhao Yong, Marquis of Nanxiong, was not as high as Lu Zhongheng, Marquis of Ji'an, but when Zhao Yong followed him in the Northern Expedition, he led [-] cavalry to break through the enemy's camp, and was seriously injured for this.

Li Shanchang took a pen and added three people to the list. Zhu Biao got what he wanted, so he said goodbye to Li Shanchang. storm.

In fact, where is this? After Hu Weiyong comes to power, Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely give him the right to inflate him first, and then put pressure on him from time to time. In this way, he can only gather party members to protect himself, and the extremely powerful ministers desperately gather Manpower, that will soon develop into a huge interest group.

When Zhu Yuanzhang went on a killing spree, if the radish was pulled out with mud, the nobles would no longer be a threat to the imperial power at all, and could only become the sword in the emperor's hands with peace of mind, and used it to subdue the civil official group.

Moreover, the case of Xungui being implicated because of civil servants like this happened, it will be extremely difficult for the two to cooperate in the future, which is also a good thing, the two major groups of civil and military are working together, so what's the matter with the emperor.
