King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Chapter 147 King Lu resisted and disobeyed the decree! Lao Zhu confused everyone!
According to heaven’s destiny, the emperor issued an edict:
I am sincere and have high hopes for you! I gave you Yanzhou and Qingzhou, hoping to use your hand to calm the people and govern the country. You are not told to do whatever you want, just do what you want! Now I heard that you actually dismissed the guards. This move is nothing short of short-sighted and will make you stupid!

Dismissing the guard station will delay the military aircraft and ruin my great mission! I am deeply saddened by your inadequacy! Today, I have specially ordered Wuding Marquis Guo Ying to use his loyalty and courage to assist you in quickly recalling the soldiers of the disbanded guard station. We must rebuild the guard station and restore the old system to guard the country and protect the safety of the people!

You should reflect on yourself and stop letting selfish desires defeat public affairs. I take state affairs as my top priority, and the vassal king should also take the world as his top priority. Follow Chen's decree quickly and without hesitation. Admire this!
After Zhu Tan and others received the order, Guo Ying looked at Zhu Tan and hummed: "Did you hear that? Your Majesty ordered me to rebuild the guardhouse with you! Tan'er! I have to be disobedient this time, right?"

Next to Zhu Tan stood Princess Tang of Lu and Prince Shi Yinshao.

Zhu Tan rolled up the imperial edict, held it in one hand, and slapped it on the other hand.

The eyelids of Guo Ying, the eunuch who passed the order, and others jumped.

Is this considered bullying?
Zhu Tan frowned and said: "Father, this is going back on his word! He clearly said that I have the final say in the military affairs of Prince Lu! What's going on now!"

Guo Ying was stunned.

He couldn't help but said: "What! Do you still want to resist the decree?"

Zhu Tan hummed: "He doesn't mean what he says, why can't I resist the decree?"

The eunuch who passed the order was dodging like crazy!

How could it be so easy to collect money from Prince Lu’s Mansion!

Zhu Tan sighed.

Zhu Tan frowned.

Guo Ying smiled.

How could Wu Dinghou think that he would go to His Majesty to complain about His Majesty King Lu? In this world, which eunuch dares to complain to King Lu? Does he not want to live?

Saying that, he was about to leave here.

Guo Ying said angrily: "Shut up! You are so proud of your favor! How can you disobey His Majesty's decree! You kid actually said you would resist the decree. It's really unreasonable! I'm covering up for you, but you are acting like this, what a nonsense!"

Although I made this uncle very angry, he really thought of me at the critical moment!

talking.

Zhu Tan didn't bother to pay attention to him and just waved his hand.

sometimes.

It’s too late to hide!
Zhu Tan suddenly laughed and said: "Uncle! Why don't you give me this money? Why are you bribing a dead eunuch? Are you trying to win over and corrupt the people around my father? I will report you to the court!"

Several times, King Lu made many disrespectful acts during the imperial edicts. However, those who dared to report these matters to His Majesty were basically executed by His Majesty.

Now I see His Royal Highness King Lu complaining crazily about His Majesty, and even vaguely intending to resist the decree.

Zhu Tan had no choice but to shout to the eunuch who delivered the order: "Yes! Listen carefully, I want to resist the order and disrespect it! Obviously Yanzhou and Qingzhou are my territory! Everyone in my territory must listen to me! This There is absolutely no possibility of recovery in Weisuo!
You return to Yingtian and tell your father exactly what I said!
If you dare not tell me, I will definitely accuse you of being disloyal to your father and how dare you conceal it when something happens!

"I hope my father-in-law will do what he says!"

The eunuch who delivered the order had a wry smile on his face!

The eunuch who delivered the order understood immediately.

When the eunuch who delivered the order heard this, without saying a word, he hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Your Highness, the order has been conveyed, it is time for this slave to leave!"

Zhu Tan felt warm in his heart when he heard Guo Ying's words.

In any case, it would be impossible for Zhu Tan to restore Qingzhou, Yanzhou and the guard posts of Anton Guard.

What good-hearted people do is more annoying than evil people doing bad things.

Why is this man in trouble again?
Can you let me leave quickly?
His Royal Highness, Prince Lu’s Mansion is really unlucky!
He turned around with a forced smile on his face.

The eunuch who passed the order turned around and left as if he had been pardoned.

"What are your orders from Marquis Wu Ding?"

Just talk, how can you pay me back?

This disobedience is certain.

If that's the case, then why bother taking care of this dead eunuch!
the other side.

You can't stay here for long!

Without any choice.

"Marquis Wu Ding is worrying too much! I didn't hear anything just now!"

He actually took out a stack of treasure money and was about to give it to the eunuch who was delivering the order!

Guo Ying said with a smile: "Don't take your orders seriously! Father-in-law, His Royal Highness King Lu just made a mistake and did not really want to disobey the decree! Don't take it seriously! If I hear any rumors in the capital, it will be detrimental to His Highness King Lu. , I’m afraid I’ll have to take my father-in-law to explain it to His Majesty when the time comes!”

You might as well give it to me if you have this money!

King Lu is really too rebellious.

Without saying anything, he turned around and left.

The subsequent eunuchs who delivered the edict, no matter what His Highness King Lu said or did, even if he crushed the edict into pieces and wiped his butt, he would treat it as invisible!

It just so happens that he is quite favored by the Holy Spirit!

The eunuch who delivered the order secretly cried out in pain!

Guo Ying hurriedly stopped and said: "Father, please be slow!"

You deserve to be chopped alive when the time comes, do you understand? "

The words fell.

Everyone was stunned.

Yin Shao's face was even more bitter.

I originally thought that His Highness had been in Yingtian for such a long time and had done so many great things without making any mistakes. I thought he had changed his mind!
Who knows why he let himself go as soon as he returned to the domain?

They lynched so many guards commanders and even disbanded the guards altogether!

Forget it, His Majesty ordered him to make corrections, but he still dared to disobey the order!

Isn't this seeking death?

Isn't this Yanzhou Prefecture unlucky?
There's still something dirty!

Why did His Highness go crazy as soon as he came back?
Mrs. Tang was even more frightened by Zhu Tan's words!
Resist. Disobey the decree?

These four words were simply unimaginable in the ears of Tang, who had been educated in loyalty and patriotism since childhood!
For a while.

Tang's beautiful face was filled with horror!
Your Majesty, how dare you?

Guo Ying's face was full of anger and he shouted: "Zhu Tan! You bastard! Do you want to die?"

When the eunuch who delivered the order heard this, he had an idea in his mind.

"Why is my slave so dizzy?"

The words fell.

boom--!
The whole person fell straight to the ground.

Although the pain was excruciating, the eunuch who delivered the order did not dare to say a word. Even the expression on his face was extremely numb, and he did not dare to change at all for fear of being seen.

I'm even dizzy. You can't force me to tell His Majesty that you are disobeying the decree.
The eunuch who passed the order was just complaining crazily!
What kind of bad luck did he have to suffer to be arranged to come to Prince Lu's Mansion to deliver the decree?
What a pity!

I haven't done anything bad in my daily life!
Even if I encounter a small flower or grass, I have to walk around it for fear of stepping on them!
Why did God fool me like this?

Guo Ying and others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the eunuch passing the order fainted.

Fortunately, no matter whether the eunuch is really dizzy or fake, there is still room for change!
It would be terrible if this eunuch was forced to report to His Majesty His Majesty King Lu about his disobedience!
Zhu Tan sneered.

"Are you pretending to be faint? Okay! You are the one close to my father, and I can't touch you! Then I will impeach you directly! I don't believe it. I am a vassal king, and I want to bring down a mere vassal like you. Little eunuch, how difficult is it still? When the time comes, the head will fall to the ground, don’t blame me!"

The words fell.

The eunuch who delivered the order had a bitter look on his face, grinned and stood up despite the pain.

Guo Ying, Tang and others were stunned for a moment!

The eunuch who delivered the order had a look of helplessness on his face and said with a cry: "Your Highness, just spare this slave! I have never offended you, so why did you force this slave to die?"

As he spoke, he kept begging Zhu Tan for mercy!

Guo Ying was speechless!

How come these eggless guys have lost their courage!
To be so timid and afraid of getting into trouble!
Zhu Tan smiled.

"So do you remember clearly what I just said?"

The eunuch who passed the order had a bitter look on his face.

What kind of evil have I committed? I can't even hide from this unfortunate incident!

"Your Highness, why do you do this?"

Zhu Tan hummed: "After returning to Yingtian, I will honestly report my case to His Majesty! If you let me know that you dare not to do this, I will kill you! Get out!"

The words fell.

The eunuch who conveyed the order did not dare to delay any longer and hurriedly got up and left.

There was only one thought in his mind.

If you complain, just complain. In short, what you tell is the truth. Can your Majesty really kill me?
Is there no room for reason in this world?

His Royal Highness King Lu is really deceiving others!

Watching the eunuch who delivered the order leave.

Guo Ying couldn't help but said angrily: "Tan'er! How can you be so willful! Now, your Majesty, what should I do if I investigate! What a bastard!"

Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, I have never heard of anyone who dared to disobey His Majesty's will!
Zhu Tan must be crazy, he dares to disobey the order!

As he spoke, Guo Ying stamped his feet and left angrily.

I'm just anxious in my heart, what should I do? If it doesn't work, I'd better tell the girls in Jingli!

Tan'er is so confused!

How can I be serious with His Majesty?
It is true that he gave you the power, but he never promised not to take it back!

Even if they take it back now, as your son, you can only accept it!
How could you go against His Majesty like this?

How audacious!
the other side.

Zhu Tan looked at Guo Ying's leaving figure and smiled slightly.

It is estimated that his father has already known about his reconstruction of King Lu's guard.

Next, as long as he proves to Lao Zhu that the combat power of King Lu's guard is far superior to that of the previous guard, I believe everything will be fine from now on.

As for resisting orders and disobeying orders, acting out of temper.
Zhu Tan believed that with his current status in Lao Zhu's heart, he would not really be angry with him.

not to mention.

Zhu Tan's biggest reliance is still being able to continuously provide a large amount of money to the court!
Even if Lao Zhu wants to play with his emperor's temper, he still has to see if it's worth it, right?

He gives millions of taels of silver to the court a year, is he willing to do anything to him?
Prince Zhu Biao initially refused to obey the order and said nothing to keep watch for Concubine Sun. Although Lao Zhu was helpless, wasn't it okay?

Although his current status is not as good as Zhu Biao's, his importance to the court is actually higher than Zhu Biao's!

Under such circumstances, it is estimated that he can get similar treatment as Zhu Biao. At most, Lao Zhu will scold himself again.

Zhu Tan was thinking.

While saying to Yin Shao beside him: "Yin Shao! In the name of my king, write a memorial to my father!"

Yin Shao was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, "Huh?"

Zhu Tan frowned and said, "Ah what! I'll fine you 100 taels of silver again!"

Yin Shao reacted immediately and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, please speak!"

Zhu Tan glared at him.

Then he put his hands behind his hands and said, "Just tell His Majesty that the military power of King Lu's clan will be returned to me as promised at the beginning! Now you have just made some moves and you are going to regret it! It really chills the child's heart! But the child is magnanimous, Let bygones be bygones! King Lu's guard has been rebuilt in time, but the scale is smaller, but the combat power is so strong that it is definitely the best army in the world! Father, please rest assured!"

The words fell.

Yin Shao was completely confused.

He was dumbfounded, looked at Zhu Tan, and couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, is this how you write to Your Majesty?"

Zhu Tan frowned and said, "How else can I write this? If you keep talking nonsense, I will fine you 100 taels of silver!"

Yin Shao stopped talking and bowed to accept the order.

Just write.
If you don’t write again, your money will be gone!
What's more, he also knows what kind of dog-tempered King Lu is in front of him!

It's good and bad at times. Now he's just threatening to withhold money, but later he might be beheaded, so why bother confronting him?

After Zhu Tan finished his instructions, he suddenly said: "Write it as soon as possible, and then give it to the eunuch who passed the order and ask him to forward it directly to His Majesty!"

When Yin Shao heard this, he immediately quickened his pace.

Afraid of being late, the eunuch who delivered the order left.

Watching Yin Shao retreat.

Tang couldn't help but walked forward and stood quietly beside Zhu Tan.

Zhu Tan frowned and said: "Princess, don't try to persuade me. I always keep my word! It's useless to persuade!" Mrs. Tang shook her head and said softly: "Your Highness, I am not trying to persuade Your Highness, I am not trying to persuade you. I just want to be with His Highness.

No one in this world understands you and opposes you, but I will always stand by your side. "

When Zhu Tan heard Tang's words, his heart suddenly warmed up.

He held Tang's slender waist and asked with a smile: "Then do you understand me?"

Mrs. Tang's pretty face turned red and she murmured in a low voice, "No, I don't understand!"

Zhu Tan kissed Tang's little face hard.

at this time.

There were no foreign ministers present, but Tang's pretty face was still as red as a ripe apple.

She opened her little mouth slightly and muttered: "Your Highness, please don't mess around."

next second.

Her lips were sealed, and she could no longer speak.

a long time.

Zhu Tan gasped and said with a smile: "Princess, I don't want to mess around with anyone in this world, but I want to mess around with you!"

talking.

With a strong force, Tang was picked up horizontally.

He held his slim waist and entered the bedroom.
Tang's clothes gradually became less and less, and he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

When Zhu Tan saw this, he was stunned and laughed strangely.

"What are you doing? Today, I am going to open up the world of yarn!"

Ying Tianfu.

Forbidden City.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Jin Yiwei's report and his brows twisted into the character "Sichuan"!
He said to Zhu Biao beside him: "Prince! Zhu Tan, this kid, is acting up again! No wonder he wants to disband the guard! How brave he is!"

Zhu Biao was stunned and said, "What's wrong with the tenth brother?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said: "This guy has changed the structure of our guard station!
In the vassal land of King Taru, there is only a recruitment system!

snort! "

Zhu Biao couldn't help but said in surprise: "Huh? Recruiting soldiers is a waste of money and money for the people. How can my tenth brother have the money to support 20,000 sergeants?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "Of course I can't afford this kid, he only recruited 7,000 people!
Five thousand of them guard Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and the other two thousand join the more than two thousand people of the Anton Guard to rebuild the Anton Guard! "

Zhu Biao smiled bitterly.

"What's the trouble with Tenth Brother?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said, "We know what this kid is thinking!"

talking.

Zhu Yuanzhang said a little angrily: "You are so self-righteous, so happy! He doesn't like our system of defense! We still think he is whimsical!"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but laughed dumbly and said: "Father, are you exaggerating? How dare my tenth brother do this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Prince, you don't understand the ambition of this boy Zhu Tan!

If we talk about talent, this guy's talent has been seen by all the ministers in the court, and I'm afraid no one can match him!
We are definitely not exaggerating on this point!
Although his ideas and methods seemed unreasonable and boundless, they seemed unreliable!

But the final result was incredible!

Such a great talent is rare even in hundreds of years! "

When Zhu Biao heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he couldn't help laughing in shock.

He never thought that his tenth brother would be so powerful in the eyes of his father!
Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down and continued: "But this is the truth in the world!

The more talented people are, the more likely they are to be conceited!
Always dreaming of doing something unique and shocking!
Just like this time, he disbanded the guard station, no, it should be said that he rebuilt the guard station!

We know what he is thinking. He just wants to build a unique and powerful army, so that he can be distinguished from others, so that his King Lu Domain can be different and eye-catching!
snort! "

When Zhu Biao heard this, he immediately reacted.

He also read a lot of history books, so he naturally knew the difference between the recruitment system and the guard system.

Compared with the guard system, the recruited soldiers can have better conditions and training, because without the trouble of trivial matters, the recruited soldiers have nothing else to do except fight. In theory, the combat power will naturally increase. Go up a lot!

Zhu Biao hesitated and said: "What my father and tenth brother did, maybe it was a solution. After all, the health centers in Yanzhou and Qingzhou have such big problems this time. I'm afraid there are many problems in health centers across the country! He can be considered one of them." A solution! Moreover, in this way, the recruited sergeants do not need to do other chores besides fighting, and maybe their combat power is actually stronger than that of the guardsmen!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and said: "He is just wishful thinking!
Prince, do you know how many guards and soldiers there are in this world? "

When Zhu Biao heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly and said: "This kid has never studied this!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly: "We often read the reports from the Ministry of War! We know!
Up to now, the country has a total of 180 capital divisions, one left-behind division, internal and external guards, thousand-household guard stations, and a total of more than million sergeants!
Among them, there are 48 guards and more than 20 sergeants in the Yingtian area alone! "

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's report, Zhu Biao admired: "My father is wise! He actually remembered such complicated numbers!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said: "Prince, the foundation of a country is its army!
You are the Crown Prince now and can’t remember it, it doesn’t matter!

But when you become an emperor in the future, you have to know how many soldiers you have! "

Zhu Biao's face straightened and he said: "My son, I obey the order!"

Zhu Yuanzhang hummed: "That boy Zhu Tan, things have gone smoothly since he came to feudal lordship! We knew this was not good! It would easily make him arrogant!"

From annihilating Japanese pirates to managing salt fields to reforming the imperial examination!
Everything this kid does will be recorded in history and shine through the ages!

However, this is also the most inappropriate part!

He is too young!
Having suddenly achieved such an achievement, I am probably already in a state of ecstasy!
He is so conceited about everything and thinks he can do everything well!
snort! He even dares to change our guard system! "

Zhu Biao smiled bitterly and said: "After all, we agreed at the beginning to give the tenth brother such power. Whatever he wants to change, it is actually reasonable."

Zhu Yuanzhang put his hands behind his hands and hummed: "This boy is going to make a big mistake this time!

When the time comes, we must teach him a lesson!
There is nothing in this world that can only be done by his own wishful thinking! "

talking.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Prince, do you know the origin of this guard?"

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "It should be Uncle Chengyi who asked his father to establish the Military Guard Law. Since then, everyone from the capital to counties began to set up guard posts!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Actually, it's even earlier! Before Liu Ji asked us for instructions on this matter, in the tenth year of Dragon and Phoenix, we established the military law, which stipulated that those with five thousand soldiers would be commanders, and those with more than a thousand soldiers would be thousands households. , a hundred people are a hundred households, a fifty people are a general flag, and ten people are a small flag!

The military and security law that Liu Ji petitioned to establish was nothing more than an improvement based on this! "

Zhu Biao smiled and said: "That's it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly: "Lao Shi has been well clothed and well-fed since he was a child. He doesn't know that life is difficult, let alone that when the Ming Dynasty was founded, we were surrounded by enemies on all sides, with hundreds of wastes and ruins, and the road was full of obstacles!

It's not that we want to use Wei's system, but we have to use Wei's system!
Otherwise, in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was Yuan Huizong in the north, King Yuan Liang in the southwest, and Naha Chu in the northeast! Which side doesn't have hundreds of thousands of troops?

In addition, Ming Yuzhen in Sichuan has not yet been pacified!

People's hearts in the country are even more unstable, so why don't we need the army to suppress them?
But at that time, both in the north and the south, all industries were depressed due to the war, and even Yangzhou City only had 27 households left! The people changed their sons to eat!

When the imperial court was first established, where would the money and food come from to support the troops?
If we did not use the guard system and allowed these soldiers to fend for themselves, how could we, the Ming Dynasty, have millions of soldiers to fight in the north and south, until today!
That boy Zhu Tan actually looks down upon our soldiers picking up hoes to farm and putting down hoes to fight!

snort!
This is really unreasonable! "

Zhu Yuanzhang recalled the past and said angrily: "Old Ten thinks that if the sergeants have no distractions, they can raise good soldiers? He thinks that if the sergeants have a salary and good food and drink, they can fight well?"
fart!
Really good soldiers are trained between life and death!
What happened to the guardsmen?
After being dragged to several battlefields, those who survived were all the best in the world!

Even if he spends a lot of money to support his young soldiers, they will still be beaten to pieces!

snort!
Just wait and see!
Before the Northern Expedition, we must find a strong army and give these young soldiers he raised a lesson!
Do you really think that the recruitment system is better than the guard system?

The weak Song Dynasty is the recruitment system!
The troops we raised are all deadbeats!

In the end, it led to Jingkang’s shame!
Now that Lao Shi is doing this, he must be defeated! "

When Zhu Biao heard this, he couldn't help but smile.

In fact, my father was still worried about his tenth brother actually changing the guard system of King Lu's domain!

And this guard made is the proud work of the father!
It's no wonder he is so worried about it.

suddenly.

Old eunuch Chen came closer and said with some fear: "Your Majesty, the servant who went to Yanzhou to deliver the decree to His Majesty King Lu is back. He has something to report to Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly.

"You're just a eunuch, if you have anything to report to us! Your people are becoming more and more unruly!

Declare him to come!

We want to hear what he wants to report! "

Zhu Yuanzhang had never had a good impression of eunuchs, so eunuchs had almost no presence in the Hongwu Dynasty, and their status was extremely humble.

Old eunuch Chen said with some fear: "Yes!"

soon.

The eunuch who delivered the order came into the palace and knelt on the ground.

"This slave will die! Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said impatiently: "If you keep talking nonsense, we will kill you! Tell me, what exactly do you want to report?"

The eunuch who delivered the order knelt on the ground and said in fear: "Your Majesty! After His Royal Highness King Lu received the imperial edict, he... He said that His Majesty had handed over the military power of Qingzhou and Yanzhou to him, so it is his business to change it! He wants to Resistance and disobedience! King Lu’s guards will never do what His Majesty wants!”

talking.

The eunuch who delivered the order kowtowed frantically and said, "Your Majesty! It is not the slave who is driving a wedge between the father and son of the Tian family!

In fact, His Royal Highness King Lu said that the slave must bring these words, otherwise, he will ask His Majesty to behead the slave. Your Majesty, forgive me! "

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was stunned for a long time.

Resistance and disobedience
Disobedience!

This old ten!

What a courage!
Zhu Biao was also shocked!

tenth brother
How courageous!
Old eunuch Chen and others looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with nervous expressions.

Afraid that the ill-tempered Emperor Hongwu would suddenly get angry and bring disaster to Chiyu, so he would deal with these miserable slaves!
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang was angry at this time and was about to get angry.

After all, since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, I have never heard of a minister who dared to tell me that he would resist the decree!
Arrogant, too arrogant!

However, as he listened to the eunuch's words, another picture suddenly appeared in his mind.

Zhu Tan stood in front of him with an angry face and made a fuss.

"Father! You clearly said that the matters concerning Yanzhou and Qingzhou were decided by me! It has only been a few days, but you have gone back on your word?"

Zhu Yuanzhang is 57 years old this year, and Zhu Tan is just 16 years old.

Although they are father and son, there is inevitably more affection between the two than the elder's doting on the younger.

not to mention.

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew.

How much money did Zhu Tan give him.

Almost all the money he got was given to himself without any reservation!
Even if such a filial child disobeys him once, how can he really be serious with him?
Think of this.

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath.

He suppressed his anger.

He snorted and said, "Old Shi is so willful!"

The words fell.

Everyone was shocked!

Disobedience!

At once.
Has this passed?
Just saying that His Highness King Lu is willful?
Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel the veins on his forehead twitching!
I resisted the decree at first, but my father almost drew his sword and chopped him down.
He really treated his tenth brother differently.
the other side.

The eunuch who delivered the order carefully took out a memorial from his arms and said: "Your Majesty! This is a memorial from His Royal Highness, King Lu, to Your Majesty. I ordered the villain to forward it to Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

He hummed: "Old Ten is so unruly!"

It stands to reason that the memorials handed over to the emperor by his ministers must go through the General Affairs Department before they can reach him.

However, Zhu Tan's status was special. Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and endured it. After all, he was also very curious about what the bold old man wrote in the memorial.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang said to Old Eunuch Chen: "Take it over! Let's take a look!"

Old eunuch Chen was numb.

Your Majesty is too partial to His Royal Highness King Lu!

Not only did His Royal Highness King Lu arrogantly send someone to report that he was disobeying the decree without getting angry, but now he violated the rules and did not submit the memorial through the Secretary of General Affairs. Instead, he asked the eunuch who passed the decree to hand over the memorial. His Majesty actually accepted it!
His Royal Highness King Lu
A true man of God!
