Zhu Youzhu looked at his son, the expression on his face was slightly hesitant, he has never been a bold emperor, at this moment, Zhu Youzhu is really a little worried, do you really want to clean up the honor? But it's too big. Glancing up at his son, Zhu Youzhu sighed and said, "You didn't just do this to clean them up, right?" ”

For his father, Zhu Houzhao had nothing to hide, and said directly: "It's really not, Erchen wants to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys." ”

"These nobles have enjoyed the grace of the Ming Dynasty for generations, and the court and the royal family have given them less preferential treatment? What the royal family wants is nothing more than that they don't make trouble and are obedient, but what about these people? Do they still have royalty in their hearts? Is there still a Ming Dynasty? Going in and out of the eight seats, running rampant in the township, and oppressing the people, this is what Xungui should do?

"Now that the royal family has asked them to pay taxes in Zhuangtian, one by one, the Ming Dynasty is gone, what else do they have? I can't give up any money, Da Ming is gone, and their lives are gone. ”

Zhu Houzhao's emotions were a little excited, he was really angry, he didn't expect these nobles to be so shameless, Yan Zheng took them himself, right? They haven't made a lot of money in recent years, right? Mines, steel mills, strange Zhai, the logistics of the Black Dragon Army, where is there no them? But now? It's just that Zhuang Tian pays taxes, and he actually gives himself this set.

A group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, in Zhu Houzhao's view, this is that the royal family is too good to them and is used to them.

Zhu Houzhao still remembers how the Han Dynasty cleaned up the nobles, that is, they wantonly divided the titles, and then directly found a reason to dethrone them. In Zhu Houzhao's memory, the Han Dynasty once directly dismissed a large number of nobles because of the lack of gold quality offered by the nobles, why didn't the nobles in Hongwu Yongle dare to do this?

The emperor said a word, and they followed in response, wasn't it because Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong could get the sword?

How many people did Zhu Yuanzhang kill, how many nobles he killed, and how many civil officials he killed, is the world unstable? On the contrary, at that time, the Ming Dynasty was at its peak, and even after the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty still beat everything. Is the place unstable? Did the people rebel? No, on the contrary, the people were doing well at that time.

It's been peaceful for a long time, the country has developed for so long, but the Ming Dynasty has become what it is now, and it is getting weaker and weaker, why?

Seeing his son's angry appearance, Zhu Youzhu was a little stunned for a while, he felt a murderous aura in his son. After a while, Zhu Youzhu spoke: "But if you act like this, I'm afraid you will be questioned!" ”

Zhu Hou glanced at his father, and said directly: "How many nobles did Emperor Taizu kill?" Those are still the founding heroes, but can they damage the prestige of Emperor Taizu? ”

Zhu Youzhu glared at his son, Emperor Taizu's practices were about to be sprayed into a sieve, but now the old Zhu family is still doing the country, and no one dares to say it with great fanfare. The emperors of the Ming Dynasty all knew that the emperor could not learn from Emperor Taizu, but wanted to be a benevolent monarch, and Zhu Youzhu naturally received such an education, but he couldn't announce it.

"But this is not a righteous act!" Zhu Youzhu looked at his son and still wanted to persuade him, but Zhu Youzhu still didn't understand that his son had also received Confucian education since he was a child, and he had arranged for many ministers to be his teachers. Could it be that it was influenced in the army?

Zhu Hou took a look at his father, he felt a little sad for his father, and felt sad for the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

Renjun?

In Zhu Houzhao's view, that is the shackles that the gentry put on the emperor, and it is their means to tame the emperor, yes, it is tamed. The emperor wants benevolence and righteousness, but what is the concept of benevolence and righteousness? It was set by the gentry, what is the definition of Ming Jun? Or is it defined by them, in such a situation, if there is an emperor who does not meet their interests, then it is not a benevolent monarch, not a Ming monarch.

But the gentry defended their own interests, while the emperor defended the interests of the state and the royal family.

This is just like the presidents of some countries in later generations, they should defend the interests of the country and the people, but they have become people who defend the interests of big capital, and history is really a circle.

"Father, which generation of Ming Monarch Holy Lord is Renjun?" Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao smiled wryly: "Is it Emperor Qin and Han Wu, or Tang Sect and Song Ancestor?" Or is it our Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty? Zhao Zhen's nickname is Song Renzong, but what is the result? What was the former Song Dynasty like in Renzong's generation, didn't my father know? ”

Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhu Houzhao and sighed helplessly for a long time, he knew that he couldn't convince his son.

Even Zhu Youzhu felt that he seemed to be persuaded by his son, and he decided not to discuss this issue with his son anymore, and after a moment of silence, Zhu Youzhu said in a deep voice: "It's too much to take the title from the family, and it is enough to take the title, after all, the ancestors are meritorious, and they still have to leave some decency." ”

Zhu Houzhao knew that this was his father's last concession, and after thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao didn't argue, but just said, "Then listen to my father." ”

Although Zhu Houzhao said this, he didn't plan to do it in his heart, once some things started, he couldn't stop at all, and Dad's thoughts were really simple.

Seeing that his son agreed, Zhu Youzhu also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked people to draw up a decree, and the content was also very simple, that is, someone participated in the three nobles, and the three law divisions investigated thoroughly, and at the same time, Dongchang also followed. The holy decree was issued immediately, and then it was issued, and it seemed that this matter would pass, and when the investigation results came out, it would be enough to directly dismiss the official and seize the title.

Zhu Houzhao heard the news as soon as he returned to Xianyang Palace, and the music went on very quickly, and the court was still a little confused for a while.

But the action was not slow, and the three laws and horses launched an investigation into some things, after all, there were all the folds, and all of them were listed there, and they were checked one by one. Soon the results came out, each one was true, all three families were involved in a life lawsuit, and more than 20 lives of a long family shook the government and the opposition for a while, and the impeachment twists and turns flew into the palace like snowflakes.

Because there was also a Xiucai who was forced to die, this time it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and the civil officials were boiling.

You must know that the gentry in this era are politically correct to each other, and no civil official dares to cross this red line, so the entire court was in chaos for a while.

The civil officials want to be severely punished, but the people on Xungui's side are panicking, obviously something is wrong, no one is clean under their buttocks, how can they not be afraid? Did Your Majesty really do it? All of a sudden, the Shouning Hou Mansion was full of people, and the Shouning Hou instantly became hot.
