Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 37 We Later, Are We Really Lost?

Zhu Biao took Zhu Di to leave, and the old Zhu calmed down, and he also took Zhu Su to drive to Qianqing Palace.

After all, the security of Qianqing Palace is stricter.

This time, he also specially ordered the two tigers to strictly prohibit anyone except the queen and the prince from entering or leaving.

Zhu Su is quite familiar with the Qianqing Palace.Zhu Yuanzhang still asked the guards to be on guard outside, while he brought Zhu Su inside.Father and son were sitting at the tea table in the middle, Lao Zhu said:

"Continue to talk about what happened just now... Lao Wu, there is really no policy, can it deal with the '300-year curse'?"

"No." Zhu Su's head shook like a rattle.

"Don't you still think that even if we promulgate good policies, we will go astray?" Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously. "Don't worry about this. We will publish a 'ancestral instruction' for future generations, so that future generations of monarchs and ministers will follow the methods of our founding monarch for generations, and let all officials and scientific officials jointly restrain the court. There’s something like this going astray.”

"I know, "Emperor Ming Zu Xun", right?" Zhu Su waved his hand. "That thing is useless, and what should be missed will still be missed."

"What?" Old Zhu was taken aback.Using the "Emperor Ming Zu Xun" to restrain the whole court is the way he came up with after thinking about the failure of the military household system in the past few days.

I just came up with this name last night!

He wholeheartedly wanted to create a perfect law of operation. In his mind, the military household system went astray in the end. Of course, it may be that the military household system itself is not perfect, but it must be, and part of the reason is that later generations did not follow it faithfully. This good government will turn into bad government.

Now that I know the shortcomings, as long as I put in some effort to improve the system to perfection, and then restrain it with the precepts of my ancestors, I will definitely be able to completely make up for this hole.

But the fifth child actually opened his mouth and said the name of Huang Ming Zu Xun, and Lao Zhu asked in surprise: "Could it be that according to the original method, we were also going to compile this "Huang Ming Zu Xun"?"

"Isn't it?" Zhu Su spread his hands. "A few years ago, you thought about compiling this ancestral training, right?"

"Not bad." Old Zhu nodded. "In the second year of Hongwu, we wanted to leave our ancestors' instructions for our Zhu family."

"But at that time, we only wanted to pass on a good family tradition, and the name hadn't been decided yet... Why, our "Emperor Ming Zu Xun" was not taken seriously?" His voice could not help but tinge with anger. meaning.

"Your ancestral precepts are quite tasteless. It is complete in all aspects. But times are changing, and some things may be suitable for the situation at the beginning of the founding of the country, but after a few years, they will no longer be applicable." Zhu Su replied.

"Originally, things like policies have to change with the times. You always think that a set of policies will be used for tens of millions of years. How can it be so easy?"

"How can a pool of stagnant water not stink? The same reason!"

"A pool of stagnant water, how can it not stink..." Lao Zhu frowned, as if he had grasped something.Before he had time to think deeply, Zhu Su went on to say:
"If you don't need it at all, that's fine. But it comes in handy again: as long as the emperor violates the wishes of the civil servants, the civil servants will immediately go to your "Emperor Ming Zu Xun" and point out the ancestral precepts." The clauses in it that are beneficial to them shouted 'the law of the ancestors is immutable'. With your ancestral precepts, future emperors can only say nothing."

"However, those civil officials either thought of excuses to misinterpret the clauses about restricting their civil servants themselves, or pretended not to see it."

"This ancestral precept has been played out by the civil servants."

Zhu Su spoke with sarcasm.That's right, none of the civil officials who shouted "the law of the ancestors is immutable" in the Ming Dynasty dared to mention the "law of the ancestors" of "peeling the skin and filling it with grass".

"What!" Old Zhu stood up with a blushing face, quite a bit of embarrassment turning into anger. "We know it, we know it!"

"How dare you use our words to prevaricate our descendants!"

"These officials are indeed my confidant's serious trouble!"

He thought of the "water is too cold" that he said before, and also thought of Prime Minister Wang who gave him eye drops in the early court, and old and new hatred suddenly rushed into his heart at the same time.

These officials, when I was still here, dared to get in the way, no wonder they dared to manipulate their descendants like that!
It seems that before trying to solve the 300-year curse, we must first sort out these officials!

Otherwise, with them dragging their feet behind, how can I let go of my hands and feet, and block these big holes for future generations?

"As expected, we are too kind to those civil servants." Old Zhu gritted his teeth.

He took the tea Zhu Su poured for him, raised his neck and drank it, feeling better.Then he sat down and said angrily:

"Old Fifth, we want to abolish the position of prime minister first, what do you think?"

There was a fierce gleam in his eyes.He also knew that if he wanted to abolish his appearance, it would inevitably cause great disturbances.It is likely to lead to a long period of stagnation in the operation of the court, and even other unpredictable disturbances.

But what time is it now?Our great Ming will perish in more than 270 years!How can I care about those!
It is time to work together and work together!
How can such an extra prime minister get in the way of our hands and feet?

"Waste?" Zhu Su was taken aback. "Now, do you already have thoughts of waste?"

"We already had it! If we hadn't been busy fighting Yuanting a few years ago, we needed someone to help manage it..." At this point, Lao Zhu stopped in surprise: "Listening to your tone, I know we want to abolish Mutually?"

"Later, did we really do that?"

Zhu Su nodded.Not only did this, but also killed people who were full of pits and valleys by the way!

Even in later generations, Hu Weiyong is still famous as the last prime minister in China and also the most buried prime minister.

More than [-] people died because of him...

"We abolished the prime minister?" Old Zhu stared at Zhu Su with wide eyes. "Didn't you say that our descendants are still bullied by civil officials, and civil officials still control the government?"

"Without the prime minister, a powerful official, how can civil servants become such a disaster?" He was a little puzzled.

"Father, your decision to abolish the prime minister is still arbitrary!" Zhu Su corrected.

This kind of opportunity to preach to Emperor Hongwu is rare.Zhu Su pretended to pick up the teacup, closed his eyes and took a sip of tea: "Have you ever thought about how vast our Ming Dynasty is, and how many government affairs we need to deal with in a day?"

"Although the position of prime minister has taken away the power of the emperor, to put it bluntly, it has also shared the burden on the emperor's shoulders."

"Historical records show that in the eight days from September 18th, Hongwu 21th to the 660st, you reviewed a total of 390 memorials from domestic and foreign divisions, and handled 200 state affairs. On average, the memorials to be reviewed every day As many as 400 cases, dealing with more than [-] state affairs..."

"And every day, I don't sleep for two hours!" Zhu Su made a "two" gesture.

"So what!" Old Zhu waved his hand. "It's just a lot of hard work. We are the emperor, if this can leave an iron-clad country for our descendants, we are willing!"
