Chapter 029: There Are Never Eternal Friends

This person is a social creature, so he instinctively chooses what is best for him.

No matter how close they once were, once there is a conflict of interests, then conflicts will erupt, and they will choose the way that is beneficial to them again.

If the division of power is not clearly defined, then after a long time of getting along, all kinds of contradictions will inevitably erupt.

After all, everyone has their own premise for independent thinking, and everyone's starting point for thinking is different, which will inevitably lead to such and such problems.

Chen Qiyu's expression was a little thoughtful, and he said indifferently: "I really didn't expect that the three of the British Duke, the Chengguo Duke, and the Pingguo Duke would reach a consensus on this matter, just let them control the financial power, criminal power, civil power, and supervision power of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"I'm not worried about this." After listening to Chen Qiyu's story, Zhao Zongwu said with a smile on his face: "Yuxuan, don't forget, this duke still has the sword of Jinyiwei in his hand.

In the hands of this father, Jinyiwei will surely regain its former glory.

It's just that to my father's surprise, I thought that if this situation occurred, it would take at least half a year for conceptual friction.

But what Bengong didn't expect was that they would join forces so tacitly, and skillfully use Bengong's proposal to hurt the people in Beijing to complete their political demands.

In this regard, Bengong did underestimate their desire for power. ”

Chen Qiyu nodded and said: "Everyone understands what it will bring to holding power, especially the British Duke, who still holds the top authority of the Ming Dynasty."

Although it was said that because of Wei Zhongxian and them before, the Guogong camp was well combined.

But after this incident, the phobic camp does not have the tacit understanding it had before, and as time goes by, the fear of problems will become more and more. ”

As the first staff officer by Zhao Zongwu's side, it is definitely the status of the mastermind, and with a series of recent events, Chen Qiyu has become more and more important to Zhao Zongwu, and that kind of attention has slowly turned into a relationship of investment, but there is still a lack of a suitable time.

It is often the last layer of window paper that is the most difficult to pierce.

Zhao Zongwu waved his hand and said: "Yuxuan, from the beginning, my father didn't think that he could have a long-term cooperative relationship with Zhang Weixian, after all, they are all hereditary Ming power, although there are all kinds of forces hidden behind them, but at the same time, there must be many bad habits.

And Bengong got out of danger and became stronger and stronger in the battlefield fighting, so the most unbelievable thing in Bengong's eyes is sand!

It's just that Liaodong needs to consolidate and develop at this stage, and this prince must avenge the first emperor, in order to achieve this goal, he can only cooperate with Zhang Weixian.

Now the partnership has long since ended.

Wei Zhongxian was defeated, and all the traitors under Zhu Youzhen's command who participated in the rebellion had already been killed, and even Zhu Youzhen was imprisoned by his father.

And we and the other four princes have also gained unprecedented power and become auxiliary princes.

Then the next step is bound to be intrigue over the division of power.

Ben Gong thought of all this from the beginning.

It's just that Bengong didn't think that this Zhang Weixian had such an attitude towards Daming Lishu, if it was like this for a long time, I am afraid that a darker period than the eunuch party will come! ”

According to Zhao Zongwu's thoughts, this Zhang Weixian is a top ruler, and this minimum conscience should still exist, but he never expected that Zhang Weixian and they would be so arrogant, but now they are fighting against Zhang Weixian, and there is no way at all.

Zhao Zongwu's chassis forces are in Liaodong, but Liaodong is in a critical stage of development, and it is absolutely impossible to send an official to Beijing.

If Zhao Zongwu sent a large number of outstanding officials to the capital in order to fight wits and courage with Zhang Weixian, then Zhao Zongwu would probably pick sesame seeds and lose watermelons.

Chen Qiyu said: "Grandpa Guo, what you said is right, but as far as the current situation is concerned, we can grasp the military power of the Ming Dynasty, although there will be many problems in the early stage, but as far as the experience of the rise of Liaodong is concerned, if you want to implement the political concept, you must have a strong army to rely on." ”

"This is very clear in the heart of this duke, but that Zhang Weixian definitely does not have such a good heart, if the Ming military government is still useful, this old fox will definitely not, so easily lose the military power in his hand.

You must know that there are more than 100,000 establishments in this Beijing camp on the surface, and to control such a pivotal army and horses in the capital, the right to speak is probably unimaginable to ordinary people. ”

But apparently Zhao Zongwu was not as optimistic as Chen Qiyu, and from the time Zhang Weixian easily agreed to give up the power of the Beijing camp in his hands, he knew that things were not so simple.

Chen Qiyu had a bit of deep thought in his eyes: "Grandpa Guo, do you mean that the Jingying may have rotted to the roots?" Although it shows that there are more than 100,000 troops on the surface, the matter of eating empty salaries and drinking soldiers' blood is more serious than imagined? ”

Chen Qiyu is a smart person in the end, and he can understand it at all.

Zhao Zongwu sighed and said: "If it was ten years ago, I am afraid that the Beijing battalion still has the strength to fight, but now this prince does not dare to make any guarantees, although it is said that my Huaxia Army has been reborn in one battle after another, but the soldiers of the Beijing battalion have not experienced a tragic war for more than ten years, or even more for a long time."

Besides, with the Ming Wuxun forces in charge, such an army entrenched in the capital, what kind of combat effectiveness do you think Yuxuan will have?

Even the most basic elimination mechanism is gone, and my father doesn't think there is anything good in Beijing. ”

Chen Qiyu said: "Grandpa of the country, what should we do next?" Do you want to take over Jingying directly? ”

Chen Qiyu didn't expect the problem to be so serious, but now that the powers and responsibilities have been clearly divided, then Zhao Zongwu and they can't do things that exceed their authority.

Zhao Zongwu shook his head and said: "There is no need to worry about this for the time being, Yuxuan, you lead some people to investigate the actual situation first, since Jingying is very likely to be a hot potato, then we try to know ourselves and the other side, so as to ensure that we will not be burned by it." ”

Now that he has controlled the Ming Dynasty's military power, although there are too many messes in the middle, Zhao Zongwu must also find a way to dredge it through his own way, so this head must be opened well, if it is not opened well, it will completely let him sink into it and unable to extricate himself.

That's when the big problem really happens!
