Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 47
The Forbidden City in the early morning is very quiet, the rising sun is hidden in the clouds, and a few flying birds pass by from time to time in the blue sky. From a bird's eye view, crowds like ants shuttle around the Forbidden City.

Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.

"Breakfast should be light."

Zhu Youxiao, who got up early and finished exercising, took a comfortable bath, with slightly wet hair draped behind his shoulders, sitting on the Arhat bed, smiling and said to Zhu Youjian: "The emperor's body still needs to be exercised more, the body will be able to get better." It's capital, without a good body, no matter how much you learn and know, it will be futile after all, come on, drink more milk."

"The younger brother will pay attention in the future."

Enduring the soreness, Zhu Youjian leaned forward, catching the milk handed by the emperor's brother with both hands, and the young eunuch kneeling behind him hurriedly put down his work.

When it comes to what to eat for each meal, Zhu Youxiao does not have many requirements. On the premise of ensuring food safety, it is enough to pay attention to a balanced nutritional mix.

Zhu Youxiao doesn't like this form of how many dishes are required for each meal. Zhu Youxiao thinks it is unnecessary to prevent poisoning and demonstrate the authority of the emperor.

If you want to avoid being plotted against, you must seize it from the source, isolate the inner court from the outside world, strengthen access control everywhere, strictly control the inner court pharmacy, implement the registration of medicinal materials, and implement multi-post supervision...

In order to have absolute control over the Forbidden City, Zhu Youxiao began to adjust and improve many new rules and systems since the establishment of the Imperial Guards Office.

After breakfast in Xinuange, Zhu Youxiao, who was eighty percent full, would walk a few laps in front of the main hall of Qianqing Palace, which only happened in recent days.

"Keep your waist straight and your belly slightly tucked in."

"Keep your eyes straight ahead."

Zhu Youxiao walked down a few laps, pointing out that some of the honored guards had some problems in the queue of honored guards. Zhu Youxiao, who couldn't see the expression of joy or sorrow, every time he was in the queue of honored guards, the heartbeat of many honored children would inevitably speed up , Wearing Shan Wenjia, their foreheads are covered with fine sweat.

Practice is still quite effective.

On the way back to Dong Nuan Pavilion after leaving the honorary guard formation, Zhu Youxiao's lips curled up slightly. This group of honorable disciples in Beijing had changed significantly compared to their initial undisciplined state.

Queue drills are the most tedious.

Compared with other targeted drills, this type of drill cannot significantly improve combat effectiveness, but it has its own unique characteristics.

Discipline.

Obedience.

Whatever you are asked to do, you must do it right and you cannot bargain.

The military is nowhere else.

The will to overturn military orders, and the idea that military orders are greater than the sky, must be absolutely implemented.

Even if there is a fire pit in front of you, or there are knives falling from the sky, if you are told to go, you must go, and if you are told to stand, you must stand. This is what the army must have.

An army without discipline and obedience, even if it can fight tough battles, will eventually degenerate, it is only a matter of time.

"Fang Zhenghua and their recruiting?" Zhu Youxiao, who returned to Dongnuange, sat on the dragon chair with his robe lifted, looked at the memorial on the imperial case, and said to Liu Ruoyu.

"My lord, according to Fang Zhenghua and others, the first batch of Liao Zhuang has been recruited."

Liu Ruoyu didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Calculating the time, he will arrive in the capital in the next few days, and his family will be temporarily placed in several Huangzhuang under the jurisdiction of Tongzhou. Fang Zhenghua and the others say that it will take half a month at the latest , all the Liao Zhuang will be recruited."

"Where's Huangzhuang Huangdian?"

Zhu Youxiao picked up a memorial and asked, "Why didn't I see the memorial?"

"This slave will go to the Ceremony Supervisor now."

Liu Ruoyu bowed in salute and said: "Eunuch Wei has not submitted any memorials since he left the capital and rushed to various places in the capital to investigate."

"Go."

Zhu Youxiao said concisely.

For Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of ceremonies, Zhu Youxiao is still at ease. This is a knife, which can consolidate the imperial power and deter Xiaoxiao when used well.

As for Wei Zhongxian's thoughts, Zhu Youxiao could guess that he just wanted to do the job well so as to win his trust and reliance.

If you want the people below to be motivated, you must be rewarded and punished clearly, you must let them see hope, and you must let them feel awe. Only by doing this can you not commit betrayal behavior or behavior. The cost of such a betrayal is too high, and the benefits obtained are too small.

People are not fools.

"The Four Guards Battalion and the Yongwei Battalion under the jurisdiction of the Yumajian will go through the recruit training stage, and the drill involved in the queue can be handed over to the Xunwei."

After Liu Ruoyu left, Zhu Youxiao thought about some things, "Implement with a holistic assessment, which can not only sharpen the guards, but also erect the military discipline of the department. Whoever does not do well will be punished, but the royal guards The batch of recruits recruited by the Governor's Mansion cannot be allowed to mix with Xunwei."

At this stage, Xunwei has not yet passed the test of Zhu Youxiao. There are some things that Xunwei can do, but there are some things that Xunwei cannot touch.

From the level of the power center to the level of the divisions, especially where the army is involved, mutual checks and balances must be implemented, and mutual supervision must be implemented, otherwise there will be hidden dangers of supporting the self-respect of the army and separatist regimes.

The Ming Dynasty's army was able to bring order out of chaos by fighting a few battles, building a few new armies, and promoting a group of military generals to achieve earth-shaking changes.

What needs to change is the system!
"Minister...Hong Chengchou, pay homage to Your Majesty."

"come in."

Hong Chengchou has been under a lot of pressure recently. The Hongwan case and the moving palace case made many people stare at him.

Regardless of the fact that both cases were tried by him himself, some remarks can reach his ears and become factors that affect his judgment.

"I called Qing's family into the palace, nothing else."

Zhu Youxiao picked up a memorial, "It was sorted out by the Supervisor of Rituals, and the Qing family took it back to have a good look at it, I think it will be helpful for the review of the two cases.

I am well aware of the difficulties of the Qing family.

After all, the two cases involve many levels, and there is no room for any omissions. I still say the same thing. Since I have appointed the Qing family to review, I will not let the Qing family get into a whirlpool. "

Son of Heaven, what does this mean?

When Hong Chengchou bowed his head and stepped forward to receive the memorial from Xinjun, he secretly speculated in his heart. He did not guess Zhu Youxiao's intention.

"I have ordered the internal prison to go to Luoyang."

One sentence made Hong Chengchou's hands tremble slightly. He understood that the Hong Pill case had been finalized from the very beginning. Nowadays, there is a lot of discussion between the government and the public. There are no people who are meddling on the surface, but there are many who are meddling behind the scenes. But This is exactly what the emperor wants.

Hong Chengchou smiled wryly in his heart, the princes in the court, one wanted to influence the emperor, and the other wanted to influence the emperor, but in fact the emperor's thoughts had not been put on this for a long time.

Those remnants of the Zheng Party in the DPRK must be involved as soon as possible.

Hong Chengchou, who had thought about these things clearly, made up his mind in his heart that he had no way out now, and he had to keep up with the emperor's footsteps.
