Chapter 13 Refutation and Purpose

Zhu Houzhao has been so annoyed lately, and the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee have been making noise in his ears like flies all day long, and they almost want to tie him to the dragon chair and then seal his mouth.

However, Zhu Houzhao's mood seems to be good today, and he even used half a bowl of rice for lunch.

"Drill the guards, and also send Hong Ji as a supervisor to teach the guards to read and write." Zhu Houzhao smiled.

There are so many things about the royal family that have no family affection, brothers' walls and even your life and death in the history books, but the two brothers Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Houwei grew up together since childhood, and their relationship is naturally not ordinarily good.

And Zhu Houzhao thinks that he knows his younger brother very well, and it is true that Zhu Houwei's temperament is much calmer than him, but he also does not like political affairs, but likes to deal with those blacksmiths who are full of sweat and smell, and for this reason, he has not been less arranged by the ministers of the DPRK and China.

Difficult brothers can be described as sympathy.

To say that Zhu Houwei has different aspirations and wants to rebel, it is pure nonsense, Zhu Houzhao himself is the first to disbelieve it, and then again, if his own brother is really interested in the big position, Zhu Houzhao feels that he can completely let it go, and he himself can fly in the sky, and the sea is wide and the fish jumps.

Being an idle prince is much better for Zhu Houzhao than being an emperor surrounded by a swarm of flies.

It is recorded in the history books that the great eunuch Zhang Yong sued Liu Jin for rebellion, and Zhu Houzhao directly said that Liu Jin would go against him, and if Liu Jin wanted to sit in the world, let him sit, if Zhang Yong hadn't replied that Liu Jin had become the emperor, what should His Majesty do to make Zhu Houzhao wake up, maybe the last person to die was Zhang Yong.

It can be seen how big Zhu Houzhao's nerves are, and he can also see what this baby has been tortured by the minister, and it is not important for the eunuch to rebel against him, let alone his own brother......

Now Liu Jin has not yet killed Liu Jian and Xie Qian and then leaned towards the government and the opposition, and he also smiled when he heard this: "King Yong and His Majesty are compatriots of the same mother, how can he oppose Your Majesty, not to mention that King Yong is training his own soldiers and horses, and he has not expanded his army to recruit ...... These ministers like to catch the wind and divide His Majesty's flesh and blood affection. ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded very approvingly and said: "My younger brother likes iron and stone, and he never cares about the army, he suddenly thought of training, maybe it is really that the ground in Zhejiang is not very peaceful, but most of these Japanese robbers are just coastal fishermen as bandits, why not cause trouble, but since Hou Wei wants to train the army, why don't you order him to add two guards?"

Liu Jin was speechless, since the Yongle Emperor was martyred and the Han King rebelled, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were very protective of the vassal king, if it weren't for the fact that the fiefdom really needed soldiers and horses to protect the safety of the vassal king, it is estimated that the emperor would be eager to cut all the soldiers and horses of the vassal king to feel at ease.

It's good to have this lord of his own family, and he has to increase the army for King Yong, even if King Yong has no objection, but once he is strong, who dares to guarantee that he will not breed ambitions?

Who is Liu Jin? He is a personal eunuch who has accompanied Zhu Houzhao since he was a child, and no one in the world dares to say that he knows his master better than him.

To put it bluntly, Emperor Zhengde is a donkey, if you follow him, everything will naturally be fine, but if you admonish left and right, he will only do it, if you want to say that it is not good to give Yongwang three guards and horses, then maybe this lord can allow Yongwang to increase his troops by 100,000!

It can also be called a pirate to pacify the pirates......

"Your Majesty is wise, the closest is still your own brother, there is King Yong in Huzhou, how dare you be rampant."

Zhu Houzhao was very happy, so he said: "If you plan to give it to King Yong, you will say that he will expand the three guards, and I will leave the matter of purging the troubles to him."

Liu Jin's heart was shocked, in the Ming Dynasty, the king was not allowed to leave the fief, the fief of King Yong was Huzhou Mansion, that is to say, King Yong was not allowed to leave Huzhou Mansion City half a step without will, if he left the form of complicity, but King Yong is the younger brother of Jinshang, then even if he goes to the states and counties under the jurisdiction of Huzhou Mansion, the problem will not be too big.

But His Majesty said that he would hand over the matter of purging the plague to King Yong, and it was a clear decree, what does this mean?

It means that as long as there is a place where there are Japanese invaders, King Yong can go to where to conquer them, then the scope of this activity is large, at least Fujian, Zhejiang, Liangguang and other coastal areas can be visited.

If this will is issued, the court will not turn over the genius, and it is estimated that the ministers in the court should not say that they are crying, and I am afraid that it is not uncommon to die.

"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the Cabinet will refute this will......"

Zhu Houzhao wanted to scold people, you must know that the emperor is the supreme existence, and his will is Tianxian, but in the Ming Dynasty, it is not the same thing at all.

In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's will is sometimes a fart, because the holy decree has the effect of law, and the celebrant needs to stamp the emperor's seal and then send it to the cabinet to affix the cabinet's seal.

What is Refutation? To put it simply, the will is nonsense, and if the cabinet does not approve it, it will be sent back to the celebrant for redrafting......

Zhu Houzhao wants to give the three guards and horses to the Yongwang really to say that it is not a destruction of the ancestral system, because the ancestral system is that the prince can have the wings of the three guards and horses, which is also the original intention of dividing the kings to guard the world in the Taizu era, but in the Yongle period, in order to prevent future generations from following his own example and coming to another martyrdom, the soldiers and horses of the kings were reduced, but not on the surface.

But the vassal king is not allowed to leave the fiefdom without an edict, but the ancestral system of the Zhen'er Bajing, Zhu Houzhao wants to be the king of Yong, which is to blatantly destroy the ancestral system, and if such a will is sent to the cabinet, it will be called a ghost if it can be passed.

However, the cabinet has a refutation, and the emperor can also issue a decree, the so-called decree means that the emperor's will is not directly issued to the recipient through the cabinet, but the decree will also be resisted.

For example, if the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty want to take the throne, they need to be publicly recommended by the six ministries and nine secretaries, that is, the alternative few people will be voted by the six ministries and nine secretaries, and the ones with the highest votes will be recommended to the emperor, and most of them can become the new bosses in the end.

This is a normal procedure, and it also shows that the right to appoint personnel is still in the hands of the emperor, but in fact it is not the case at all, for example, the emperor is optimistic about a good friend and wants him to be a heavenly official of the ministry, but what if there is no candidate list that will be pushed?

Then the candidate who will be pushed and submitted for approval will be vetoed by the emperor, and then issue an order to the cabinet to tell the cabinet that this good friend can be qualified to be a heavenly official, but the cabinet feels that this guy is not qualified enough, so the emperor's will is refuted.

At this time, the emperor can make a decree and directly give a good friend to let him take over as a celestial official of the ministry, and a good friend can indeed sit in this position, because the greatest right of the royal family is personnel appointment.

But no matter how good your friend is, he may not dare to take office, because as long as he goes to work, he will definitely suffer the contempt and disdain of all officials in the officialdom, as if he was a heavenly official by flattering the emperor, even if he sits in that position, he will not want to work.

It can be seen that the emperor's decree is not much different from waste paper for civil officials......
