People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 25 The ambitions of civil servants!

Although the Farming Hall was just a temporary resting place for the emperor when he was farming every spring.

However, the construction is still quite tight, and there is no air leakage from all sides.

And in order to keep Chen Han warm, a stove was set up inside. It shouldn't be cold at all now.

But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was sweating profusely from his back and was chilling.

He gritted his teeth, not knowing what he was thinking.

But according to Two-dimensional's description, there should be a burning flame on his head at this moment.

Zhu Biao's face didn't look good either.

Although when Chen Han said this, he repeatedly emphasized that this was just a conspiracy theory and did not involve real facts.

But why, now he feels that there is something worth believing in it.

And it's completely possible to happen in reality.

It's just that I don't know how it happened.

When Ling Han saw the expression on Chen Han's face, he felt as if he was seeing a devil.

At that moment, it seemed that Chen Han's strange eyes could be seen through the gauze wrapped around his eyes.

Such conspiracy theories are too unfriendly to civil servants.

Chen Han did not say that this was the fact. He emphasized that this was the speculation of later generations.

But the more I listen, the closer I get to the truth?
Is this really the truth?

Ling Han said nothing, but he did feel the cold.

At this time, Chen Han said again: "Village Chief, we are just discussing history, why can't you say anything?"

Ling Han wiped the sweat from his forehead: "No, I'm just talking. It's just that what you said was incredible. It was too subversive of the history books I read before."

Chen Han explained: “This is also normal, because it is difficult to truly interpret this period of history in the early Ming Dynasty.

On the one hand, many historical records were destroyed or modified by King Zhu Di of Yan.

On the other hand, Zhu Yuanzhang himself in the Ming Dynasty engaged in spy politics that made everyone think that anything that happened in the Ming Dynasty was normal. "

After Ling Han heard Chen Han's explanation, he felt it made sense.

You yourself have made the court hall confusing and opaque at all, but why don't you just let the seeds of suspicion have soil to take root and sprout?
Ling Han said: "It seems that these are conspiracy theories and cannot be taken seriously, right?"

Chen Han chuckled: "Village Chief, if you say so, let's play a game, how about it?"

"What game?" Ling Han asked.

"Character substitution game!" Chen Han said: "The two of us are brought into the civil servants of the Hongwu period, and then we use our own logic to think about how we will do things. Village chief, will you come and play?"

Ling Han turned around and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

Ling Han then said: "Okay, come and play!"

After Chen Han saw that the village chief agreed to play this game with him, he immediately said: "Village Chief, let's assume the background first. In the 13th year of Hongwu, the Hu Weiyong case, the subsequent Kongyin case, and the Guo Huan case, do you think you have experienced it? Will Crown Prince Zhu Biao, who has been baptized by so many major cases, be a benevolent and weak person?"

As soon as he said this, Ling Han subconsciously turned back to look at Zhu Biao.

The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

He didn't know how the history books recorded His Highness the Crown Prince later.

But personally, he had never thought that a prince who could deal with the iron-blooded emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and to a certain extent, Zhu Yuanzhang sometimes listened to him, would be a weak person.

To put it bluntly, a weak person would not even have the courage to stand in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.Moreover, many of the decisions on those major cases were made by His Highness the Crown Prince. He once said a famous saying: It would be better for the officials to cry than for the common people to cry.

So whoever says this prince is weak must be mentally retarded.

Someone once said this about Zhu Biao.

Our prince looks as gentle as jade, but he is ruthless and decisive in his heart, just like the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

Chen Han also smiled and said: "I never believed that the Crown Prince Zhu Biao, who got up in blood and tears, would be an indecisive person. They have cooperated with each other for more than ten years. Maybe one of them is a scapegoat. People sing red faces.

Lao Zhu was brutally killing him from the front, while Zhu Biao was begging for mercy from behind. The cooperation between father and son was flawless, and they played with the courtiers in the palm of their hands. "

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao and his son looked at each other, and looked at Chen Han with a look that wanted to kill him.

As long as you know it yourself, you still say it. Since ancient times, which emperor and prince have not cooperated like this?

This was originally a means of controlling the ministers.

I act as a villain in the front, while my son wins people's hearts behind him, and takes care of all aspects of human relations. Only when his son ascends the throne will the following officials be convinced.

Our father and son are not the only ones doing this.

How could Ling Han not know this in the officialdom?

Because many people can see the tricks in the power game, but you know clearly that this is the dunk made by the two men, what can you do?
The process of saving your life is not important, what is important is the result.

No matter how they play, you are alive, shouldn't you be grateful?
This is human favor!
You have been played by father and son. You feel bitter and don't want to be grateful, but you can't help but do it. People who don't know why will call you ungrateful.

This is where it is brilliant.

Playing with you and saving you are all done for outsiders to see. As for whether you are wronged or not, the people who are playing with you know how wronged you are even better than you.

Chen Han continued: "After the background is explained, we can put in the characters.

We are now ordinary civil servants. We have escaped the Hu Weiyong case, the Kongyin case, and the Guo Huan case, but we found that the people around us were dead and exiled. They are either our relatives or our best friends. A good friend, or someone who has had a life-long friendship.

They were all victims of Zhu Yuanzhang and his son's rule of the world.

We don’t know if the next person to suffer such a fate will be us.

In the midst of anxiety, several major events suddenly happened. The Chang family died, the Lu family came to power, and the emperor's eldest grandson died. The emperor's second grandson, who grew up in Confucian literati education, was convinced of the tricks of our civil servants.

We all think in our hearts that if he can become emperor, we can improve the status of civil servants through him and suppress the arrogance of military officers and nobles.

And compared with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, this emperor's second grandson, who grew up in the East Palace and had little knowledge, seemed easier to control.

If the crown prince Zhu Biao dies, the future of the second grandson will be bright, because the only threat to the Qin King is a disgraced person. All conditions point to one direction - if the prince dies, the second grandson Zhu Yunwen He will definitely be established as the grandson of the emperor.

And Lan Yu, who is following Zhu Biao, will also be eliminated because he is not from the emperor's second grandson's faction.

This is a good thing.

Without Prince Zhu Biao, who looks weak but is actually ruthless and decisive, he will still follow Zhu Yuanzhang's path.

The emperor's second grandson Zhu Yunwen, who has little experience, can only listen to the civil officials, and the court will return to the tradition of civilian government.

From now on we are the real masters of the Ming Dynasty.

When someone said this in private, we civil servants were very tempted.

Those who say Zhu Biao is a good prince are ordinary people like you, not officials like us.

Village chief, if you were a civil servant, would you be tempted? "
