Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 1016 Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness

Deep in Zhu Youxiao's heart, there are actually too many things on his mind. In addition to the various things in the Ming Dynasty, there are also things in the north, south, west, and east. No matter how many brilliant ideas he has and how many feasible deployments he has, in this vast territory, he does not have enough people, especially the corresponding system framework, to support his thoughts and ideas, and to move forward steadily. Ultimately, it is useless.

So Zhu Youxiao was lonely.

He needs to wait patiently until the Ming Dynasty can gather a group of people with new ideas, new visions and new minds, and enter the officialdom through various means and be promoted to key positions. Then his ideas and ambitions can be truly implemented.

Under such circumstances, Zhu Youxiao had to eradicate as many accumulated problems as possible so that the Ming Dynasty could accumulate enough wealth, which would give him confidence to carry out his actions.

But Zhu Youxiao wanted so much, but in a period that seemed peaceful but was actually full of undercurrents, it was impossible to achieve it effectively.

Therefore, there was disorder in some areas, but this disorder was under delicate checks and balances. Only in this way could those people he valued be tempered and honed in such a situation, and then promoted. As for those who fell behind, Zhu Youxiao would not even look at them.

He doesn't have the time, nor the mood.

The Ming Dynasty today can only be rebuilt after a great destruction! !
……

"Mu Changzuo is seriously ill?"

Xiyuan.

Ok Hee Palace.

Zhu Youxiao leaned against the cushion, glanced at the memorial held by Liu Ruoyu, then looked at Zhu Gongyao and asked, "When did the clan office receive the memorial?"

"Just these two days."

Zhu Gongyao bowed hurriedly and said, "Since your majesty issued an edict to set up a Honor Office under the Imperial Clan Court to manage the affairs of the honored nobles, the Tongzhengsi will forward these memorials to the Imperial Clan Court."

"However, the Duke of Qian's Mansion is different in our dynasty after all. It has been in the southwest for many years. After learning about this, I submitted the pulse case to the capital along with the memorial and asked someone to check and consider it. I'm afraid Mu Changzuo's illness is beyond recovery, and he can only last until the end of this year at most."

It looks like something can be done.

When Zhu Youxiao heard this, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

As the powers of the Zongrenfu continued to increase, it began to have greater influence in the court and had a certain impact on the royal family and vassal states in various places.

Zhu Youxiao started another plan, which was to restrain the Ming nobles. However, he felt that it was too much trouble to set up a separate government office to manage it, so he simply asked the Ministry of Clan Affairs to take charge of it.

The issue of bestowing titles will certainly continue for a long period of time in the future. Otherwise, how can we stimulate the military generals of the Ming Dynasty to fight for the Ming Dynasty and intimidate the villains?
But even so, how to discipline them was something Zhu Youxiao had to solve.

Forewarned is forearmed, without prejudging the waste.

We can’t wait until problems arise before we think about solving them. Wouldn’t that be too late?

"Is it really this serious?!"

Zhu Youxiao pretended to be surprised and looked at Zhu Gongyao and said, "The southwest of the Ming Dynasty can be stable today. The contributions of the Duke of Qian's Mansion for generations should not be forgotten. Immediately send an official letter to the Imperial Hospital in the name of the Imperial Clan Bureau to select imperial physicians with excellent medical skills. Also select some people from the Shangzhi Imperial Guards to escort the imperial physicians to the southwest to rush and treat Mu Changzuo!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhu Gongyao bowed immediately.

But doubts arose in his heart.

Why does the emperor attach so much importance to it?
Mu Changzuo's reputation is not very good in the southwest. In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, there are several titles with special meanings, one is the Yingguogong Mansion in the capital, one is the Weiguogong Mansion in Nanjing, and one is the Qianguogong Mansion in the southwest. In addition to these extremely noble titles, there is another special one among the vassal states, that is, the Jingjiang Prince's Mansion.

Although he was a prince of a county, he enjoyed the treatment of a prince. The first Prince of Jingjiang was Zhu Shouqian. This person was not famous, but his father was famous, and that was Zhu Wenzheng!

However, for Zhu Youxiao, he would keep those who were truly loyal to the Ming Dynasty and entrust them with important tasks, but he would gradually eliminate those who were disloyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Hongji has been killed.

Mu Changzuo was about to die, so Zhu Youxiao didn't need to worry about anything.

But Zhu Youxiao had to consider who would inherit the title.

"Go and tell Liu Chao about this."

Watching Zhu Gongyao's departing back, Zhu Youxiao said, "Tell him to select a group of reliable people from the Imperial Household Criminal Office and secretly go to the southwest. I want Mu Qiyuan to die a violent death."

"!!!"

Liu Ruoyu, who was holding the memorial, looked shocked at this moment.

"I want to die in front of Mu Changzuo."

Zhu Youxiao said coldly, "After this is done, go find the Governor of Sichuan and Guizhou, Zhu Xieyuan, and ask him to impeach the Duke of Qian's Mansion for all the evil deeds they have done in the southwest."

"Wait until this memorial arrives in the capital and present it to the emperor as soon as possible."

"The slaves obey the order."

Liu Ruoyu suppressed his surprise and bowed immediately.

Liu Ruoyu had no idea why his prince did this, but he was clear about one thing: the Duke of Qian's Mansion was likely to suffer a setback this time.

But Liu Ruoyu guessed wrong.

Deep in Zhu Youxiao's heart, there is a plan that needs to be promoted by the Duke of Qian's Mansion.

That is, after the implementation of the Ancient Tea-Horse Road, it infiltrated into the Indochina Peninsula adjacent to the southwest.

"Mu Tianbo, you should come to the capital for discussion first."

Looking at Liu Ruoyu's hurriedly leaving back, Zhu Youxiao smiled faintly, "If you can pass my test, then I don't mind letting you inherit the title of Duke of Qian, but if you fail, then you will stay in the capital for the rest of your life."

In fact, Zhu Youxiao had some thoughts about Mu Tianbo. After all, this person had a very complicated temperament. If he failed to meet his expectations, it would ruin his grand plan.

But if it can be done, the Qianguo Mansion in the southwest of Shizhen can actually be moved into the Indochina Peninsula, which can relieve a lot of pressure on the central government.

Of course, if one wants to gradually infiltrate and assimilate such a vast area until it becomes an inseparable part of the Ming Dynasty, it is not enough to rely solely on the Duke of Qian's Mansion. Since the Ming Dynasty has so many special titles, it is better to ask them all to go, which can also serve as an example.

By then, with the support of the system of governors-general stationed in the vassal states and the several vassal states who had moved there, Zhu Youxiao felt that in a dozen years at most, the entire Indochina Peninsula would be gradually under the control of the Ming Dynasty. By that time, the Ministry of Civil Affairs could be established.

Zhu Youxiao attached great importance to the southern region of the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty could control this region, it would be able to obtain a steady stream of resources, which would play an extremely important role in the subsequent reforms of the Ming Dynasty and even speed up the Ming Dynasty's external expansion process! !
