People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 21: Abolition of the Prime Minister is definitely a source of evil

To be honest, those who insulted the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen before were ultimately because the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen really deserved to be scolded.

But who is Zhu Yuanzhang?

That was the emperor who drove out the Tartars and restored the Han people.

No matter what era he was placed in, such an emperor would always be the same, but he would be scolded like this. It is really a bit too much.

Zhu Yuanzhang could be said to be so angry that his head was about to explode.

Zhu Biao waved his hand after seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's expression. Jiang Biao quickly stepped forward and hugged Zhu Yuanzhang, and then whispered to Zhu Yuanzhang who was already breathing heavily and his eyes almost popped out: "Higher position, higher position, this is just Please stop being angry at this guy's nonsense.

You've been enduring this for so long, please bear with it a little and don't fall short in the end. "

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned dark and he looked at Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and nodded vigorously.

Then Jiang Wei didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand and pinched the soft flesh of Jiang Wei's waist.

Although Jiang Wei was wearing thin leather armor, Zhu Yuanzhang was an emperor who fought hard on the battlefield, and his hands were so strong that Jiang Wei pouted and sucked in the cold air.

Jiang Wei cried in her heart: In the end, I took on everything.

Zhu Yuanzhang pinched Jiang Yu hard, which relieved his anger a little.

If Jiang Yu hadn't done this, it would have been difficult to hold back his anger.

Jiang Wei was about to cry but had no tears. When he looked at Chen Han, he had some personal grudges.

Ling Han saw that His Majesty the Emperor had finally calmed down and wiped the sweat from his forehead. This was a fatal matter. If the Emperor got angry, all the previous efforts would be in vain.

They have now obtained a lot of useful information, and now is the key point to ask why Crown Prince Zhu Biao died. If all his previous efforts were wasted, he himself would feel regretful for the rest of his life.

After Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down, Zhu Biao asked Ling Han to continue asking.

It's not that he must know the cause of his death, but he wants to know what will happen after his father deposes the prime minister.

It would be best if it could be corrected.

Ling Han then continued: "It seems that Teacher Xiao Chen has great opinions on Emperor Hongwu."

Chen Han said: "There is no personal emotion in this. I am just telling the truth. If you were the village chief and read the history of the Ming Dynasty, you would also find that Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor, was self-righteous and smart. .”

Zhu Yuanzhang pinched Jiang Wei's soft flesh hard again, causing Jiang Wei to stand on tiptoe in pain.

This shows how angry Zhu Yuanzhang was.

opinionated?

Pretending to be smart?

I haven't heard these words in many years.

Just like a rich man who often eats a lot of fish and meat, and suddenly eats rice mixed with sand, he feels terribly uncomfortable.

During the reign of Emperor Hongwu, no one dared to give advice to this emperor who would kill people alive with a glare.

If you speak ill of the emperor at home, you may be killed the next day, let alone in person.

Otherwise, Chen Han is lawless, because he has walked on the edge of death countless times.

Ling Han was soaked all over now, really because every word Chen Han said was worse than the scorching heat.

"Village chief, let me put it this way. After he abolished the prime minister, he handled all government affairs by himself. Zhu Biao has been helping his father handle government affairs since the tenth year of Hongwu. He also handles government affairs day and night. Basically, I can only sleep three or four hours a day.

It's like this every day, every year.I admit that Zhu Yuanzhang's body is really great. Not only was he not exhausted to death during such a high-intensity work, but he also gave birth to so many children one after another.

I seriously suspect that he was able to have such a leisurely mind only after having his eldest son, Zhu Biao.

Zhu Yuanzhang's steel body, which was tempered on the battlefield, can hold up, but Zhu Biao cannot.

First of all, it was high-intensity work, coupled with the pressure from his father, it was not surprising that he died of exhaustion. So is there a problem in saying that Zhu Biao was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang? "

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not refute.

Jiang Wei had closed his eyes and prepared to accept the torture, but found that the torture that was supposed to come did not come.

Zhu Biao sighed longly on the side, it was indeed true.

Without the prime minister and the subordinate officials under the prime minister, the emperor has too much work.

In the past ten years, if he had not worked hard to share his father's work, Zhu Yuanzhang would have been exhausted long ago.

"In Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, Zhu Biao was not only the prince, but also the prime minister, secretary, and deputy emperor. If he was not exhausted, who would be exhausted?

What is even worse will be in the following generations, which will be even more destructive.

After Zhu Di came to power, he immediately established a cabinet to help him handle government affairs. The cabinet became an institution with greater power than the prime minister.

The power of civil servants expanded rapidly after the establishment of the cabinet, so that the emperor had to reuse eunuchs and the imperial guards who had been abolished in the late Hongwu period.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought that his diligence could be inherited, but he did not know that his ability came from fighting on the battlefield.

On the one hand, it is difficult to start a business, so I cherish it more; on the other hand, after being beaten on the battlefield, my physical fitness has long been beyond the comparison of ordinary people.

Princes like Zhu Biao and Zhu Di have also endured hardships, so they can still survive for more than ten years.

However, the descendants of the Zhu Ming royal family are all raised in the deep palace. How can they face the heavy national affairs? In the end, they have to be entrusted to the eunuchs?

Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, there were many cases of eunuch dictatorship and chaos in government, and eunuchs of the eunuch level who were extremely corrupt and powerful emerged such as Wang Zhen, Liu Jin, and Wei Zhongxian.

When the eunuch Wang Zhen came to power, he deceived Zhu Qizhen's imperial commander into personally conquering Oara. As a result, the Tumu Fort Incident occurred. The emperor was captured alive by the Mongol Oara tribe, which was divided into Oara and Tatar. In the first battle, four generations from Zhu Yuanzhang to Zhu Zhanji were defeated. of all savings.

The bones of 50 soldiers were buried in earthen forts, and all the elite civil and military elites of the Manchu Dynasty were wiped out. From then on, the Ming Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline.

Liu Jin, the eunuch, was even more corrupt and bribery, and sold his official position to gain titles. His corruption and bribes were huge, and he was known as the richest man in the world at the time.

The root of all these evils stems from the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's abolition of the prime minister system. "

Zhu Yuanzhang broke into a cold sweat when he heard this.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't stand just the appearance of these three eunuchs.

He never thought about the possibility that when he repeatedly made up his mind to remove the eunuchs from intervening in politics, he never thought that his descendants would have to work together with the eunuchs to control the country.

It's so sad.

Correct!
Correct!
All this is my own fault.

If he had not deposed the prime minister, his son might not have died of exhaustion.

Their descendants will not have to reuse eunuchs to contain civil servants.

It won’t lead to so many things happening later…
