Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 182 Boss Zhu's First Cut
In the early morning, the Hall of Martial Arts bathed in the morning light.

"Li Wenzhong, Duke of Xuancao, Feng Sheng, Duke of Song, Deng Yu, Duke of Wei, and Hu Weiyong, Prime Minister of the Right, are here." Eunuch Wu sang loudly.

Four civil and military leaders came into the hall and kowtowed to Boss Zhu who was sitting on the dragon chair.

"Everyone is here, let's get down." Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was as usual, and he ordered: "Give me a seat."

The palace servants brought the brocade pie, and after the four of them thanked them, they took advantage of the time when they sat down to sneak a look at the emperor.

Unexpectedly, the row of east window sashes that are usually closed is 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 it difficult for them 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 knew how much a blow to the emperor was during the strike.

At the same time, the four of them are old cousins ​​in Fengyang, and they also know how much the failure of moving the capital has dealt a blow to the Huaixi Group.

This was the first time the emperor had summoned him after returning to Beijing, so one can imagine the delicate atmosphere...

After the four sat down, they quickly looked at their noses and hearts, waiting for the emperor to speak.

"Have you heard about the things in your hometown?"

"I heard." Li Wenzhong nodded.

"Hey, we came back in good spirits, and back in disappointment." Zhu Yuanzhang said depressedly: "This result makes people uncomfortable."

The three father-in-laws didn't know how to play it right, but fortunately there was Hu Xiangye.

"The emperor's benevolence, compassion for the people, self-discipline, and self-discipline are nothing to add. It is really a blessing for the common people." Hu Weiyong hurriedly continued: "I believe that Han Gong and the others can already appreciate the painstaking efforts of the superiors."

The three father-in-laws are secretly envious, the real Nima can speak well...

"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, washed his nephew and threw it to his family who hates him so much The civilian husband disposes of it.

Ordinarily, it was like this, so he should have done nothing, even killed Lao Li together.But Lao Li is Lao Li after all, 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 simple exchange of 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."

"Sir, please speak." The four hurriedly listened.

"We are going to change the capitals of all provinces into commanders and envoys." Zhu Yuanzhang said conveniently.

When Hu Weiyong heard that it was not the matter of the Ministry of Education, he relaxed and watched the play.

The three father-in-laws all looked dignified.

At the beginning of the Republic of China, the imperial court set up Dudufu in each province, with the same officials as the Dudufu, which governed the military affairs of a province.Later, it was changed to Duwei, which means the whole province's Weisuo.In terms of the temperance of the capital and guard, the grades are quite heavy, so the imperial court, that is, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, chooses to upgrade, and hereditary inheritance is not allowed.

The three father-in-laws are the current heads of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Deng Yu was puzzled and asked: "Superior, is there any difference between Du Wei and Du Si?"

"There are two differences. One is the affiliation. Originally, the capital was under the jurisdiction of the provinces. The Metropolitan Government only has the right to appoint and remove, and has no right to directly mobilize the troops of the provinces." Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "After the past few years, it seems that this is not good. The Metropolitan Governor The mansion and the capital are separated by one floor, and the imperial court is prone to failure in deployment.

"Furthermore, the power of the provinces is already heavy. If they control the military power, they will become independent kingdoms. If things go on like this, the imperial court will be weak and strong. How can it last?"

"En." The four nodded hurriedly, and heard the emperor continue to say:

"This also makes the connection between the guards and the imperial court too weak. If things go on like this, they will become independent kingdoms."

Seeing that Boss Zhu spoke so seriously, none of the three father-in-law dared to express any objection.

"So we plan to separate the capital from the provinces and rename it the capital, Zhili Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, what do you think?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his three army leaders and asked.

The three father-in-laws looked at each other and said they had no objection.

They are in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, so naturally they couldn't ask for the capital Zhili.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 difference between the superiors?" Deng Yu asked cautiously.

"The Dusi itself no longer directly governs the troops, and the troops directly under the Duwei will be split into several guards." Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly:
"That's another difference."

When Boss Zhu said this, the idiot understood.Compared with the Duwei, the Dusi has been weakened in an all-round way... From the head of a large army commanding a province's troops, it has been reduced to a management organization like the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Although this is a long-term reform of the military system, but at this moment, it is a weakening of Huaixi nobles.

Because all the provinces are commanding envoys, nine out of ten are from Huaixi...

~~
"Well, tell me what you think?"

After hearing the emperor's words, the three dukes looked at each other in blank dismay. If only the first one was different, they would have raised their hands in welcome.

But the second one is different, it's really offending...

"Why don't you speak? Do you have any opinions?" Zhu Yuanzhang called his name and said, "Bao'er, talk first."

The eldest nephew, Li Wenzhong, whose nickname is the same as Ping An, got up quickly and said, "Uncle, after being changed to the Chengdu Division, is the power of command and envoys in each province much smaller than before?"

He is in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, so he has to say something.

"In war, there are great governors dispatching troops and generals, and each capital division is in charge of military training at ordinary times. Why do you need so much power?" Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly, "If the power is too great, isn't it the Jiedu envoy of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Yes, I understand." Li Wenzhong nodded and stopped talking.

"Bo Yan, what do you think?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked Deng Yu and Deng Boyan again.

Deng Yu has always been simple and cautious, and he has already heard that the emperor has already made up his mind, and now he is not discussing with them at all, but just notifying them in advance before the official edict is issued.

"Your Majesty, I have no opinion. I only have a small suggestion. The capital is a military system. The establishment does not need to be limited to the provincial divisions, or it can be set up according to the needs. For example, Liaodong, Wanquan and other places are currently sparsely populated and not enough to set up. For provinces, can we first set up a capital to command the guards to guard the frontiers and reclamation villages, and at the same time manage civil and criminal prisons?" He said in an orderly manner.

The other three heard this, and secretly scolded Wei Guogong as an old fox.His words not only clearly supported the emperor, but also won some room for the local generals to turn around. They were not offended on both sides, and they had an explanation on both sides.

"I am the same..." Song Guogong, what else could he say?I had no choice but to mumble.

As for Hu Weiyong, the Du Wei is still the Du Si, and he has nothing to do with him, so naturally he will not contradict his superiors.

"Then this matter is settled like this." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered in a deep voice: "Hu Weiyong, let the Ministry of State Secretariat prepare the documents and issue the decree tomorrow morning."

"Yes, superior." Hu Weiyong respectfully responded.

ps. There are still two updates today, I am very sorry.Adjust it back as soon as possible...
