When he heard his father admit that there was a factional dispute in the court, the prince's heart was even more shocked.

"Since it's a factional battle, then ...... Then why didn't my father stop it at that time? Isn't it the most taboo party struggle in the court? If you don't take precautions, over time, the ministers divide the parties and attack each other from time to time, then how can it be good? ”

"What? Do you want to tell the ministers not to form cliques? The emperor smiled a little sarcastically, "The ministers will form their own parties according to their own interests, and if you ask them not to communicate in private, they won't do it?" Since ancient times, it is better to be sparse than to block, and it is useless to blindly prevent blockage. Besides, if the ministers of civil and military affairs do not divide their parties and rely on the emperor alone, can they be governed? I am the emperor immediately, I have prestige, no one dares not listen to me, I am not afraid, what about you? You're up, can you hold it? ”

The emperor's interrogation made the prince a little speechless for a while.

He hadn't thought about it so deeply before, but when he thought about it carefully, he found that what his father said might really have some truth. If the civil and military ministers were all united, the emperor's governance would inevitably be unsmooth, so that he would be deceived from top to bottom. In addition, compared with the previous Ming Dynasty, the new dynasty did not establish a special agency like Jinyiwei, nor did it have a large group of eunuchs in the inner court as an auxiliary, compared to the large number of foreign courts, it was really difficult to deal with.

The teachers started from the lessons of the former Ming and taught him to let the ministers unite as one and not indulge in party disputes and delay state affairs, but his father told him that the disputes between the civil and military ministers should not be completely banned, but should be acquiesced, because it is beneficial to the royal state.

These contradictory and reasonable words made his mind a little confused, and he didn't know what to say.

"Confused?" The emperor saw the state of the crown prince, but it was still very relaxed, "It's good to be confused, where is it so easy to govern the country, you can cure the country by relying on the teacher to say a few big words, where is there a dying dynasty in the world?" Some things can not be explained clearly by using them well or badly, and they need to be done according to the specific situation. Since you have already attended a meeting, you will continue to attend in the future, study hard, there are still many things you should learn! ”

"That'...... Father, may I ask which side of your opinion is more reasonable? After thinking about it for a while, the prince's mind was still a little confused, and he couldn't help but ask again in a low voice. Erchen ...... When the retainers attended, they heard that the words of both sides were very reasonable, and I didn't know what to do with the other side......"

"Reason? This world is full of truths, you are the prince, I am the emperor, no matter what the ministers say to us, they will think about how to reason in advance, and they are all high-sounding truths. If you want to be reasonable in everything, can you still do the right thing? The emperor patted the crown prince's head and couldn't help laughing, "So, the opinions and reasoning of the ministers, you just listen to it and refer to it, you don't have to care what they say when making decisions, they say theirs, you do yours." What you want is to govern the world, not listen to what the ministers say! ”

Then, looking at the confused crown prince, the emperor continued, "However, if you really want to be reasonable, it is more reasonable for the cabinet to speak." Your Uncle Shi and they are a little brutal, and the words are good, you want to share the power of the mission in Japan, but you want to divide the power, you want to hold the gold and silver mines in Japan, okay, but first you have to have someone to take care of it? Where can you find the financial talents in the army now? Wouldn't it be confusing to do what they say? ”

"That'...... Then why didn't my father talk about these opinions in the court, but instead didn't say anything, and finally raised such an objection? The prince hurriedly asked.

"In the court, if I say one sentence, others will listen to ten sentences, and the marshal has a special identity, I will scold a sentence at the meeting today, and tomorrow the court will be full of rumors, then it is called chaos! Besides, the system of the Han Dynasty has just been built, and there are still some shadows of the old days in people's hearts, since we want to set aside the chaos and let the world regain the martial style, then try not to dampen the spirit of the people who are in the army, although it may be overkill, but some things have to be done. It doesn't matter if you are as partial as possible to the army now, after a few years, the idea of civil and military equality will really enter everyone's mind, and it will be better to be impartial when the time comes? ”

Because of the painful feeling that the Ming Dynasty was so cheap that the generals were unwilling to serve the country, the emperor deliberately implemented the system of separating civil and military affairs in the new dynasty, strictly ordering civil ministers not to lead the army, and also intended to use various ways to improve the status of soldiers. However, the establishment of the new dynasty was too short, and many times the court still used the ideas of the Ming Dynasty to deal with problems, so intentionally or unintentionally it would be detrimental to the interests and status of the soldiers.

Although it may be unfair to favor the side of the military, considering that the morale of the soldiers who have been cultivated with great difficulty cannot be easily suppressed, the emperor has always been very tolerant of the army, and has also put an end to the idea of limiting the number and power of the army inside and outside the court because the world has begun to stabilize.

Of course, this practice should not continue for too long, otherwise the morale of the military will become arrogant and domineering, and the emperor knows that he is still very prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and his prestige is also very high, so he is determined to solve the problem of the expansion of the army's strength after more than ten or twenty years, so that the military group he has cultivated will not in turn threaten the stability of the country.

Of course, this kind of strategy and strategy, he can't tell anyone, even if he can only vaguely reveal a little bit to the prince, and then it depends on the prince's own understanding. However, he believed that with the wisdom of the crown prince, although he was a little ignorant at first, after he taught by word and deed for a period of time, he should understand the subtleties of governing the country.

"The father and the emperor are strategic, and the son is ...... The sons were taught. The prince felt that he understood a little, but he couldn't tell where he understood, so he had to bow his head.

However, he didn't expect that his father's teachings to him were not over.

"You know, what disappointed me the most yesterday?" The emperor's expression suddenly became a little stern, "It's in the small side hall, when I was talking to your four uncles, you interjected and said those things!" They are your elders, they quarrel, you persuade to fight, this is understandable, but the words you say are too undecent, you ask them not to quarrel for some will, not only do they not speak like a prince, but also talk about them like reckless men who have nothing to do...... Hey, there's still a lot to learn! You're the crown prince, remember! ”

The emperor's words made the prince feel a little embarrassed, he didn't know what was wrong with him, but seeing his father so stern, he instinctively felt that he was actually very dissatisfied with his performance that day, so he had to bow his head and let his father teach.

"It's good that you speak of forgiveness to your uncles. But you are the crown prince and the future emperor, and the emperor wants them not to quarrel, as for saying so pleading? When you tell them not to quarrel, you want them to stop arguing! The emperor sighed, "The weaker you are to them, the more you hurt them...... I'm okay here, and my uncles are all reasonable people, but I rely on your uncles to fight the world, and you will also rely on your uncles' children to protect the world in the future, you have to show strength, this is to treat them well! ”

"Father is saying...... The father is talking about his sons...... Even if the sons and daughters admire their uncles, they should not be too humble to them, they should behave more strongly in front of the nobles, and use the discipline to restrain them, so that they can know the advance and retreat of the law, so as not to have a domineering heart, so as to harm themselves? The crown prince understood what the emperor meant by accusing him, "And I understand, I will definitely follow my father's teachings in the future......"

The former Ming Dynasty Taizu slaughtered the heroes, and the prince also learned a lot through the teacher, and he was very dissatisfied with the Hongwu Emperor in his heart - the emperors of the Ming Dynasty treated the heroes like this, who else would want to be a hero in the future? Seeing that the later Chengzu Zhu Di treated every Jing Nan noble with kindness, the prince felt very agreed, he felt that the world of their father and son was won by these heroes, and naturally he had to take them to share.

However, my father was right, for the nobles, perhaps too lenient and too gentle, it would harm them and give them the courage to do some lawless things.

"Yes, it is necessary to restrain them with discipline, but it can't just be like this......" The emperor shook his head slightly, "In addition to discipline, it is also necessary to restrain them with fame and fortune, our Han dynasty, we still have to help the Zhao family to support it......"

"So, my father deliberately planned to include Japan's gold and silver in the Dahan Bank, and then specially designated it to be supervised by Xungui?" After being prompted to this point by his father, the prince finally came to his senses and asked by inference. "Does the father want to use the nobles as the royal support after abolishing the inner court and eunuchs, and use them as a help to rule the world?"

His father didn't answer, but the silence pretty much said it.

The crown prince lowered his head and pondered, he understood that his father was trying to enlighten him and let him think about the problem himself. Judging from his father's words, he didn't want to learn from Han Gaozu and Ming Taizu to kill the nobles, and he didn't even plan to learn from Song Taizu to release the military power with a glass of wine, marginalize the nobles, and stuff them into mansions and fertile fields for retirement, but he planned to continue to rely on and reuse this group of nobles in the future.

In today's imperial court, because the emperor led a group of old brothers to create the world, among the civil and military officials, a large number of the top officials are nobles, if the future is still in accordance with the idea of reusing the nobles to govern the country, then the situation will definitely be similar to the present in the future.
