There was a hustle and bustle in the Wuying Palace, and the ministers looked like they were going to death with their necks in mind, and finally forced Zhu Yuanzhang to admit his mistake, and with a bubble of old tears, he admitted that it was wrong to take off his underwear in public when discussing the words of the sage.

Xiao Fan was also stunned, originally just wanted to make a small Zhu Yuanzhang a little, and Shun Shun's heart was evil, but he didn't expect the ministers' reaction to be so violent, this is an era of advocating Confucianism and believing in Confucius and Mencius, in the hearts of these ministers who are full of poetry and books, Confucius and Mencius are their idols, and their status is even higher than that of the emperor, and their degree of pursuing idols is almost to the point of madness, and they can't tolerate others having the slightest disrespect for idols, and the emperor can't. Thereupon...... Zhu Yuanzhang is tragic.

Today, in addition to being important ministers in the court, these people in the palace are also well-educated Confucians, and they have a high reputation among the world's scholars, and those who love to kill such as Zhu Yuanzhang do not dare to use knives against them easily, otherwise they will lose the heart of the world's scholars, and it will not be good for the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji.

"I ...... Wrong! Zhu Yuanzhang trembled his lips and looked at the ministers with grief and grievance: "...... I will issue an edict to sin against myself, so as to save me from the sin of disrespect to the saints......"

The ministers made trouble again: "What are you waiting for?" It is not too early to reward merit, and it is not too late to punish it! The ministers risked their lives to admonish him, begging His Majesty to immediately issue an edict to punish themselves! ”

"That's right! Your Majesty immediately issued an edict, otherwise the minister is willing to die on this jade step, and with a death admonition, I beg Your Majesty to be deeply aware of the mistakes he has made......"

"The minister seconded the proposal, and the minister is willing to die......"

"Good, good! I will give an edict, I will issue an edict now! Okay, right? Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned a little blue, and his voice was much higher.

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Then the ministers exploded again like a powder keg that had been lit.

"Your Majesty, what is your attitude?"

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, but you still have to be respectful to the saint, Confucianism is the national study of my Great Ming Dynasty, Confucius and Mencius are also the most holy teachers of our scholars, Your Majesty's voice is too high, this is disrespectful to the saint!"

"I am willing to die, so that Your Majesty can think deeply!"

“…………”

Zhu Yuanzhang was completely convinced, he squeezed out an ugly smile with a blue face, and said in a very gentle and soft tone: "I really realize my mistake, I ...... This is an edict to punish my sins, Zhu Aiqing, is this good? ”

The ministers were finally satisfied.

"The minister has heard that the Holy Son of Heaven rules the world with filial piety, and His Majesty can realize his mistakes, which is really the blessing of my Ming Dynasty! The Ming Dynasty has such a wise and humble son of heaven as His Majesty, and the country will inevitably last for thousands of years, far beyond the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties. ”

"The ...... of the Minister's Congratulations"

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's compromise, the atmosphere between the monarch and the minister quickly changed from tension to peace, and the monarch and the minister were happy.

Xiao Fan opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened, and he looked at this farce that seemed to be joyful and sad, and the shock in his heart was indescribable.

Looking at the performance of these ministers, Xiao Fan felt that he had learned a lot, and he was more deeply aware that in this Ming Dynasty, which advocated Confucianism, the literati had such an amazing influence on the emperor and even on the political situation in the world. It is still the apex of yearning and respect in the hearts of the people of the world, and the famous erudite Confucianism can be called a contemporary idol figure in the hearts of folk readers.

In the future, you have to be careful with these literati, don't mess with them, Huang Yanjing doesn't dare to provoke, and I, Xiao Fan, can't afford to provoke them.

Xiao Fan is a smart person who draws inferences from one another, he is more deeply aware that he was so disrespectful to Huang Zicheng in the East Palace just now, this kind of behavior is wrong, to respect the scholar, to be humble, but also to treat him as a bodhisattva Carefully offered, ask for instructions early and report late, three pillars of incense a day...... Thinking of this, Xiao Fan hurriedly turned his head to look at Huang Zicheng and smiled at him, the taste of flattery and flattery in his smile was obvious.

When Huang Zicheng saw Xiao Fan's smile, his scalp couldn't help but tingle, goosebumps broke out all over his body, and an alarm suddenly appeared in his heart: This bastard kid smiled so madly at the old man, and he was thinking about what bad idea he wanted to calculate the old man?

Zhu Yunwen also saw this farce in his eyes, he, like Xiao Anti, felt deeply shocked, and saw that Xiao Fan, the initiator of the incident, turned his head and smiled at Huang Zicheng without skin and face, Zhu Yunwen glared at him viciously and snorted.

Xiao Fan's smile suddenly suffocated, he suddenly thought that Zhu Yunwen knew his peculiar ability to take off people's underwear, and when he was assassinated, it was by relying on Xiao Fan's magic skill of taking off his pants that he turned the danger into a disaster and turned things around. Xiao Fan couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, fortunately Zhu Yunwen had a good relationship with him and didn't report it to Zhu Yuanzhang, otherwise Zhu Yuanzhang would have made such a big ugly appearance, and his death of one hundred and eighty times would definitely not be enough for him to relieve his hatred...... Xiao Fan immediately turned his head, ignoring Zhu Yunwen's angry gaze, looking as if nothing had happened.

…………………… After this farce, of course, the feast could not continue. The ministers saluted Zhu Yuanzhang together, and then withdrew from the Wuying Palace, and Zhu Yunwen, Huang Zicheng and Xiao Fan stayed.

Zhu Yuanzhang watched the ministers out of the palace with a smile on his face, and when their figures disappeared, Zhu Yuanzhang's face suddenly turned iron-blue, and the murderous intent in his eyes became more and more vigorous.

"Xiao Fan, did you see the scene just now?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, the minister can see it clearly." Xiao Fan hurriedly bowed and replied.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Huang Zicheng coldly, and then said with murderous intent and deep meaning: "Well, it's good to see it clearly, keep the scene just now in mind, and you will benefit a lot......"

Xiao Fan was stunned, and hurriedly complimented him.

Because Huang Zicheng is here, Zhu Yuanzhang's words can't be said too clearly, because Huang Zicheng is also one of these Qingliu ministers, and he is also a leading figure, but Zhu Yuanzhang's heart is really hard to swallow, so he vaguely told Xiao Fan that in the future, you must be a good minister for Lao Tzu, beat down the arrogance of these old guys, and help Lao Tzu vent his anger.

Xiao Fan is a smart person, of course he understands the meaning of Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

Zhu Yunwen stepped forward and said, "Grandfather Huang, grandson discussed with Mr. Huang and Xiao Shiyu...... The matter of cutting the feudal domain, my grandson will report it to you. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded indifferently.

Zhu Yunwen handed Huang Zicheng the "Ten Strategies for Cutting the Domain" that Huang Zicheng had written more than a dozen pages to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang flipped through it casually, looking noncommittal.

Gently resting it on the dragon case, Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "Whose claim is this?" ”

Huang Zicheng stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is written by the old minister." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him, and the look in his eyes was a little disappointed.

"Huang Aiqing's proposition is very inappropriate, it is absolutely impossible, this method is really to startle the snake, although I believe that the princes will not dare to rebel, but the country and the society do not allow risks, and this dangerous method cannot be carried out until the last resort."

Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly, and completely rejected Huang Zicheng's proposition.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Huang Zicheng, who was embarrassed, and carefully interjected: "Imperial grandfather, Xiao Shiyu also commented so, but Mr. Huang's idea is still good, the matter of cutting the feudal domain should be ...... sooner rather than later."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xiao Fan with some surprise, and said unexpectedly: "Xiao Aiqing also thinks that this method scares the snake?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister was in the East Palace just now, and he did say so."

Zhu Yuanzhang showed a satisfied look in his eyes and said, "Xiao Aiqing has a wonderful method?" Let's hear it. ”

Xiao Fan sorted out his thoughts for a moment, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to know what Your Majesty means first, has Your Majesty made up your mind to cut the domain?" If you make up your mind, the minister's method will definitely work in the shortest possible time, and you can be sure that the impact of cutting the feudal domain will be minimized. If His Majesty hesitates to cut the feudal domain, the minister will not dare to speak falsely, so as not to be suspected of His Majesty's flesh and blood. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xiao Fan deeply for a long time, and then said: "The matter of cutting the domain is very important, I am honest, I really did not make up my mind, after all, the princes are all my flesh and blood, if I cut the domain, I am afraid of the chaos in the world, and I am even more afraid of chilling the hearts of the princes." I don't believe that my princes will support their own troops and hide evil intentions. Xiao Fan, whether to cut the feudal domain or not, I have my own considerations, you might as well tell me what you think, the responsibility of the courtier is to provide advice to the Son of Heaven, share the worries of the Son of Heaven, and whether to adopt your suggestions or not, that is the business of the Son of Heaven. ”

Xiao Fan hesitated: "Minister...... I dare not speak. ”

How did Ye Boju die? is the one who bluntly talked about the disadvantages of the vassal king, was taken into the Beijing division by Zhu Yuanzhang in anger, and finally starved to death, with such a negative teaching material in front, how could Xiao Fan dare to speak so easily about such a sensitive matter of cutting the domain?

Zhu Yuanzhang impatiently knocked on the dragon case and said, "It's okay to say the wrong thing, I will pardon you for your innocence." ”

Xiao Fan pouted secretly, you are the emperor, you can shoot whoever you want, of course you are not guilty, my courage is very small, isn't this forcing me to find uncomfortable?

After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Fan finally decided to speak.

Zhu Yunwen is a good friend, for this point, he can't hide it, if he can solve the matter of cutting the feudal domain smoothly when Zhu Yuanzhang is alive, it will be the best, and Zhu Yunwen will not be a short-lived emperor for only four years.

Besides, didn't Zhu Yuanzhang shoot innocently, with him shooting first, what am I afraid of?

So Xiao Fan opened his mouth and waited to say the idea of cutting the domain.

Who knew that Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand to stop him at the right time, and then raised his voice to the eunuchs in the palace: "You all withdraw, close the palace door, no one is allowed to approach, the offender is the Yi clan!" ”

The eunuchs hurriedly retreated and closed the door of the Wuying Palace, leaving only Zhu Yuanzhang and four others in the hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang slowly glanced at the three of them, and said in a deep voice: "Today's matter is very important, and you must not leak half a sentence, only the four of you and I know, those who plan things but do not keep it secret, lose first, you must remember." ”

"Obey the order!" Huang Zicheng bowed.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Xiao Fan and said solemnly: "Xiao Fan, you have to remember that what I said today, if I know that there is a rumor leaking outside, I will want your head to fall to the ground!" ”

Xiao Fan trembled with fright, and hurriedly said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Then Xiao Fan pointed at Huang Zicheng again, and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, if he leaked it out, what should I do?" ”

Huang Zicheng immediately glared at Xiao Fan, but Xiao Fan didn't care, he had to be fair in life and work, even if he leaked the news, he couldn't punish me alone, right? With the word unlucky ghost engraved on my face, can't you?

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted heavily, and said angrily: "I want your head to fall to the ground!" ”

Xiao Fan was deeply convinced: "Your Majesty is fair and strict, impartial, and admired...... Five-body throw, five-body throw! ”
