Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 579: Your Highness, you hurt Zhongyong!
  In fact, after thinking about it carefully, they agreed with Zhu Xuan's words and thought there was some truth to them.

Why can't the two groups work together?
  Excluding each other can easily lead to instability in the country.

No matter how noble the civil servants are, they cannot do without the military generals to conquer foreign countries and defend the country. No matter how the military generals look down on the powerless civil servants, they still cannot do without the civil servants to stabilize the overall situation.

The two complement each other, and only by emphasizing culture and force at the same time can stability be maintained.

"Did you hear that?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

There was even a hint of anger in his tone, as if they were going to kill him if they didn't respond.

"Sir, take orders!"

They had to respond in unison.

Maybe we can really try to cooperate like Xiao Huangsun said!
  "Excuse me, Mr. Yansheng, do you have anything else to say?"

Zhu Xuan asked.

"My lord, I admire your highness's kindness!"

In other words, Kong Gongjian had nothing to say.

I also agree in my heart that what Zhu Xuan said is right, maybe they can really cooperate with each other.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked again: "Do you have anything else to do?"

"The minister has the original play."

Ru Chang, Minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and said: "It's about His Royal Highness King Yan..."

"The fourth child, Zhu Di, is no longer King Yan!"

Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted.

"The minister was wrong!"

Of course Ru Chang knew that Zhu Di was demoted to a commoner, and also knew why he was demoted. Previously, Lao Zhu asked him for the roster, and Zhu Di asked the Ministry of War to ask for information such as the number of firearms and ammunition. It took so long to sort it out, and he reported: " Over the years, the Fourth Prince has requested a huge number of firearms from the Ministry of War, and the numbers they checked were quite confusing, but now... I have finally sorted them out."

Zhu Di asked the Ministry of War for weapons, and the Ministry of War gave them to him.

Although it was approved by Lao Zhu, the Ministry of War did not investigate it further or raised objections. This is the problem of the Ministry of War.

Especially the worn out firearms, the Ministry of War did not even recover them.

This was also an oversight caused by their civilian officials looking down on their generals.

After Ru Chang finished saying this, he was very panicked as the clothes on his body were not moving in the wind, and he said cautiously: "Some of them are the problems left over before I became the Minister of the Ministry of War, and some of them are the dereliction of my duties after I became the Minister of the Ministry of War." , please... set a punishment!"

He held a memorial in both hands and knelt down after speaking, feeling very panicked.

Daming’s firearms appeared elsewhere.

The Ministry of War has a huge responsibility!

Zhu Yuanzhang did not deny that he was also responsible. After seeing the memorial sent by the Ministry of War, he agreed without careful verification. However, the problem of recycling worn-out firearms was an important reason for the loss of firearms.

The Ministry of War actually neglected its duty and failed to recover it in place.

"I was also wrong about this matter, but..."

After Zhu Yuanzhang read Ru Chang's memorial that Yun Qi brought up, he asked: "Ru Chang, will you give us this amount of firearms? That's it?"

"Sir...Sir..."

Ru Chang kowtowed and wanted to defend himself, but also understood that what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted was to thoroughly investigate the entire military department.

If the investigation continued, he was worried that he might be taken away by Jin Yiwei.

"Jiang Wei, check it for us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "We want to know how many people in the Ministry of War have accepted the benefits of the fourth child and even dare to hide these things from me. Since they want to die, I will help them."

"Yes!"

Jiang Wei said loudly.

Ru Chang was covered in cold sweat and seemed to be exhausted.

He could imagine that after such an investigation, no one knew how many people would be skinned and killed. Although he had not received any benefits from Zhu Di, he was worried about being implicated.

For a time, Ru Chang was worried.

The Ministry of War should clean up this mess as soon as possible.

"His Majesty!"

At this time, the Minister of Punishment was replaced by Bao Zhao. He was in Hongwu for thirty years and served as Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and was soon replaced by Hou Tai.

After the case of the merchant's complaint against the emperor was over, Hou Tai was demoted to a remote area by Zhu Yuanzhang, and he replaced Bao Zhao as the minister. At this time, he said: "The fourth prince's matter is still very involved, and there are also those brought back by His Highness. Those people under the fourth prince are currently in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, what should I do with them?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sternly said: "Kill them all! In addition, Jiang Wei sent an order to the Jin Yiwei in Peiping to keep an eye on everything in Prince Yan's palace and find out more people. Those found were sent to the imperial prison for torture and then to the Ministry of Punishment for punishment. .”

"The minister takes orders."

Jiang Yu and Bao Zhao said in unison again.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "Do you have anything else?"

Chen Di, the Minister of Rites, asked: "Your Majesty, would you like to continue the three-year period?"

It doesn't make much sense if we don't continue now.

Zhu Yunwen colluded with the White Lotus Sect, and now he has disappeared. No one can find where he is. Their civil servants have to choose Zhu Xuan. Even if Zhu Yunwen is still there, he may not be Zhu Xuan's opponent.

"Grandpa Huang, my grandson asks to continue."

Zhu Xuan said.

Only by continuing could he go outside and make another trip. He still wanted to go back to Guangzhou to see again.

"Everything must be done from beginning to end. Let's continue with the three-year agreement!"

Zhu Yuanzhang understood his grandson's thoughts, and he was focused on the stars and the sea.

This is Sun Daye.

"The time limit we have set is not something you can joke about. We will wait until the end of the year to determine the final result." Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly.

They had no other opinion on this.

That’s it anyway.

Next, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to ask them if there was anything else.

The ministers raised several more issues to be resolved.

Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Xuan with him and gave answers to the ministers together in the court. This was to teach Zhu Xuan how to go to court and how to be an emperor.

Zhu Xuan can appreciate Grandpa Huang’s good intentions.

After a long time, the meeting ended.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not leave Zhu Xuan to read the memorial for him, and let him do whatever he wanted. However, he also began to have people clean up the East Palace, arrange Zhu Yunxuan and others to other places, and consider how to give them fiefdoms.

By the end of the year, Zhu Xuan can move into the East Palace.

You have to make room.

Zhu Xuan did not leave the palace and returned to his small courtyard.

At this time, someone came who I hadn't seen for a long time.

Fang Xiaoru is here.

This great scholar from the Ten Clans is still alive and well, but the feeling he gave Zhu Xuan has changed a lot and is different from before.

"Greetings to Your Highness!"

Fang Xiaoru said respectfully when he came in.

Zhu Xuan said: "Mr. Fang, there is no need to be polite. I don't know why you came to see me. What's the matter?"

"I would like to ask Your Highness about the study of things to achieve knowledge."

Over the past few years, Fang Xiaoru has studied the investigation of things to achieve knowledge over and over again, and his research has been particularly in-depth.

Now he asked Zhu Xuan questions, but Zhu Xuan didn't know how to respond.

Because Zhu Xuan doesn’t understand such in-depth issues.

What I understand are relatively superficial things. Before time travel, I had never studied Wang Yangming’s psychology in depth.

"Mr. Fang, I can no longer answer your question."

Zhu Xuan said helplessly.

Fang Xiaoru was stunned for a moment and fell into deep thought. Then he let out a long sigh and said, "Your Highness, you are wasting your talent!"

He had a sigh that hurt Zhongyong.

I have always thought that Zhu Xuan's talent and understanding of Confucianism would make it possible to become a saint of the Ming Dynasty. However, Zhu Xuan doesn't know how to understand it now, because he was delayed by those strange skills or military affairs.
