"Prince, the purpose of your trip to Northern Xinjiang is to probe Liu Mingzhi's tone and see if he supports your accession to the throne!"

"Many of the cornerstones in the court who can assist you are already old, and after a hundred years of my father, they have also reached the age of returning to their hometowns, and they can't assist you for a few years."

"Since then, Yoo Myung-chi, who has a good prestige in the DPRK and China, is the first auxiliary minister to bear the brunt."

"As long as you have no gap in your hearts, you can ascend the throne safely, stabilize the dynasty, and recount the good stories of your father and Liu Mingzhi."

"Liu Mingzhi is the pillar left to you by your father, if you don't know the place in the future, you must be careful to admonish, remember that it is to admonish, not to ask for advice."

"You are the king of a country, so you naturally have to put yourself in the right position and maintain the dignity of the king and the face of the country."

"Although Liu Mingzhi is loyal to our Li family, he must not be guarded against, otherwise Liu Mingzhi will be the next powerful government and the opposition."

"Father doesn't want you to have an estrangement with Liu Mingzhisheng, but for the sake of the country, this is a last resort."

"It's like my father and my teacher, my teacher Wen Renzheng has always been careful to assist my father when I was young, and he treats me better than my own son, but I still have to guard against him, not because I am ruthless and unrighteous, unloading and killing donkeys."

"It's that I'm helpless."

"The power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, the power minister is not a person, the power minister is a force."

"The teacher is loyal to me, but it doesn't mean that his protégé and former officials will not have two hearts, once the yellow robe is imposed on the body, if you don't rebel, you will have to rebel, the king is weak and the minister is strong, and the country will die."

"The same is true of Liu Mingzhi, he is loyal to me, and he can be loyal to you."

"But when he was in command of the Western Expedition, his protégés were all over the six guards in Northern Xinjiang."

"From the general to the captain, the DPRK and China also have a good reputation."

"The traitor is not Liu Mingzhi, but how his forces view him and you, the new king."

"When you feel that you can't control Liu Mingzhi, go to your mother's place, and I will leave you three strategies, so that Liu Mingzhi will be willing to return to his hometown."

"But I still don't want that day to come."

"Don't be reckless and use the emperor's coercion to force the ministers."

"The ministers are fine, but their friends will obstruct it, because if you remove their boss, everyone in the friends will be in danger, and at that time it will be a situation that can no longer be controlled."

"It's only a matter of day and night."

"The things of the predecessors, the teachers of the descendants, don't let the past of the traitorous Cao Cao be repeated in my Great Dragon Court, otherwise there will be no face to see the ancestors of the Li family after a hundred years."

"When Liu Mingzhi becomes an auxiliary minister, and the old cornerstones I left for you have receded one after another, you have to support some courtiers to weigh Liu Mingzhi's power."

"Remember, you must be a treacherous villain, don't care about the so-called folk reputation, those Confucian scholars can only care about it, and they don't know anything about things above the court."

"Falling into the name of a faint monarch who doesn't know people is just something worthless than losing the ancestral foundation and ruining the country."

"Although traitors mess with the reputation of the Son of Heaven, traitors are the wisest, because they know best where their rights and status come from, and who they should be loyal to."

"Therefore, the traitor is the most reassuring person for the monarch, but the monarch must have a degree, the traitor can have power, but not too big, and it is the best to be almost the same as the loyal minister."

"Otherwise, the tail will not be lost, and there will be chaos."

"Whether it is a loyal minister or a traitor, you must let it become a grasshopper in your hand, and it will be okay to jump around, but if you want to jump out of the palm of your hand, then you must not be soft-hearted and pinch it to death."

"A person who can't be controlled by the emperor DìDū is also a scourge to keep it, so take advantage of his fledgling wings to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots as soon as possible."

"In a word, whether they are loyal ministers or traitors, the civil and military officials above the court must let their family dominate, otherwise the country will be unstable."

"The battle between loyalty and treachery is two tigers, and you just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."

"That's the trade-off."

"Liu Mingzhi is a person, he can't rub sand in his eyes, especially for corrupt officials, and likes to uproot corrupt officials."

"You especially have to control this point of his, and corrupt officials are also very useful."

"Killing two as a last resort can not only appease the people, but also enrich the treasury!"

"But we must be the first to go to the elites and the like, and those officials who are corrupt and bribery, but have quite a lot of means, will be put aside for the time being."

"Let's talk about fattening!"

"Here is a list of all the corrupt officials in my Great Dragon Dynasty, I have investigated them clearly, but none of them have been opened, and I reprimanded Liu Mingzhi for this because of the Jiangnan incident, and the fundamental reason is to leave you to stabilize the people's hearts."

"The stability of the country is inseparable, although it is inseparable from the civil and military officials, but the people's aspirations still cannot be ignored."

"As long as the people are at peace and the people have enough food and clothing, there is nothing to worry about a little ill-intentioned clown."

"There are no soldiers and horses, and there is no desire of the people, even if you have a magic weapon, what can you do?"

"Therefore, the sage said that the people are the most important, the monarch is light, and the society is secondary."

"However, the era of the sage's words has passed, and now the people of the country are equally important."

"As long as the people have no complaints about the court, whether the Confucian scholars in the people call you a lawless and unscrupulous monarch who does not distinguish between loyalty and treachery, or a tyrant who insults you to be mediocre, you will be regarded as a deaf ear and let it go."

"I have 80 million people in Dalong, how many Confucian students are there, and some sour Confucians who can only chew words and chew words, if you give him a knife, he doesn't know how to rebel."

"Therefore, if you let them scold but do not move them, you will have a good reputation in the hearts of the people."

"Of course, don't let them do whatever they want! At the right time, it is not impossible to grasp the two typologies and find a strong proof to sacrifice them to the sword and deter Confucianism, but there must be a degree. ”

"As long as the people's will is the will and the trend of the times, you can do it with confidence."

"This is the way to get under control!"

"As for the candidates to weigh Liu Mingzhi, I have picked two of the royal family descendants, your second brother Li Baihong, and your fourth brother Li Yunping."

"It's too early to say whether it will be used or not, and it will change according to the situation."

"As for your third brother Li Yunlong, you can use it or not, if you don't have a certain degree of certainty, don't use him to weigh Liu Mingzhi, otherwise it will only lead to fire, and sometimes I can't see through your third brother."

"He was demoted to Shu, and you understand that he was transferred to Jingzhou, but it was just a crime imposed by his father to pave the way for you."

"Father really doesn't want to see your brothers kill each other in a hundred years."

"My father is also helpless, the power of the third in the court is already too great, so big that I have to personally curb his power."

"You are benevolent and peaceful by nature, you can be a benevolent monarch in the prosperous world, and you may not be the opponent of the three when it comes to being ruthless."

"I'm not afraid to tell you that I did think about the idea of making San the crown prince, but I thought about it, San will be a Ming monarch, but he will also be a tyrant, which is still a little insufficient compared to you."

"I won't say much about that!"

"You must use Liu Mingzhi well!"

"No matter what he does excessively, as long as you follow him, he will definitely not rebel."

"The gap between monarchs and ministers must not appear, otherwise once the sprout takes root, it will be difficult to contain."

"Father, you also said that your brother-in-law's prestige in the army is very great, what if he supports the army and respects himself?"

"Feng Wang, directly give him the honor of listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement."

"Huh? Doesn't that make him more powerful? It's against the trade-offs! ”

"You don't understand this, Liu Mingzhi, this kid, you don't have anything to do with him, but his concept of relatives is far different from ordinary people."

"As long as you don't touch his family, the more power you give, the more guilty he will feel in his heart, and the less likely he will rebel."

"Otherwise, why do you think I want to marry your third sister to him, and why do you want to give your daughter Jingyao to his son Liu Chengzhi."

"Relatives are Liu Mingzhi's lifeblood, if you treat him as a relative, he will naturally not have two hearts."

"Erchen understands!"

"Go, don't forget to bring him three congratulatory gifts, congratulations on his new daughter!"

"The way to be a king depends on enlightenment, and you will slowly understand it in the future!"

"Sons obey orders!"

...........

"The younger brother was greedy for a cup, and he drank two glasses of thin wine to make the eldest brother wait for a long time, and the younger brother apologized to the eldest brother."

Liu Mingzhi walked into the main hall heavily, deliberately woke up the crown prince Li Baiyu, and apologized with a smile.

Li Baiyu stood up and helped Liu Mingzhi up, "Why wait for a long time, our brothers don't have so many politeness, sit down!" ”

"Big brother, please take a seat!"

"Liu Song, look at the tea!"
