Zhu Houwei laughed, and it was obvious that the prince's answer made him very satisfied.

"Why is Your Majesty so happy?" Empress Xue came in her early thirties, with a son and a daughter, these years do not seem to have left the slightest mark on her, and she stands with Zhu Yiyao, the eldest princess of the imperial concubine, like a sister.

"Father and Emperor Sheng'an......" Princess Xianya was slightly blessed.

Zhu Houwei looked at the mother and daughter with a faint smile and said, "I heard that you were relaxing in the Imperial Garden, why did you come back so soon?"

Empress Xue said with a smile: "The imperial garden is so big, I have traveled to every corner over the years, what else is there to see, the concubine and Yao'er will come back after swinging, Your Majesty will come, and no one will tell you."

Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "The deep palace is like the sea, not to mention the queen, even I am a little tired of treating it, but you can go to the Daming Garden to play, it is much better than the imperial garden, it can be said that this Daming Garden is a collection of garden art from all over the world, it is the royal garden of the master, and it is the garden of ten thousand gardens in the whole world!"

Empress Xue pouted and said: "Don't go, the garden doesn't know when it can be repaired, it's dusty everywhere, and the only zoo that can play is also occupied by Emperor Taiwu, and the concubine is a woman, and she ...... to do it."

Zhu Houwei was not reluctant, and said: "There has been nothing in the world recently, so I plan to put some things on the agenda, but after all, I still can't rest assured, so I came to Kunning Palace to see how Yuan'er's studies are progressing."

"Your Majesty is planning to go on a personal expedition?"

Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "I know that I can't hide anything from you, yes, if nothing happens, within half a year, I plan to raise 300,000 troops to conquer Wadao in person!"

Zhu Zaiyuan understood......

The father and the emperor personally conscripted, so the Ming Dynasty must be supervised by the prince, but the father was still not very worried about him, so he came to Kunning Palace......

Zhu Houwei looked at Zhu Zaiyuan and said solemnly: "The emperor is the prince of the Ming Dynasty and the future emperor of the Ming Empire.

Zhu Zaiyuan knew that the time had come to really test him!

"The sons will take the people as their minds, continue to implement the great policies implemented by the Jiajing Dynasty of their father, develop industry and commerce, promote agriculture, encourage the people to learn from the style, rectify the rule of officials, strengthen the army, develop the economy, supervise the infrastructure, and make sure that the Ming country is rich and the people are strong, and the country is safe and secure!"

Very decent answer, nothing new, but I can't find the slightest fault.

"The emperor's answer, I can't say whether I am satisfied or dissatisfied." Zhu Houwei smiled bitterly: "But my father knows what the emperor said, it's easy to say, but it's not easy to keep it all the time."

Zhu Zaiyuan leaned over to listen, he knew his father too well, when to speak and when not to express his opinions, he could still handle the balance lightly.

"Governing the country is not a general talk, let alone a few slogans that can be governed well." Zhu Houwei sighed: "My father has been on the throne for 18 years, and the reason why he has to bow down in person, and even roll up his sleeves in person to play games with the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, is not because my father is willing, but because he has no choice but to ......

Because when Da Ming and others succeeded to the throne for their father, it seemed to be singing and dancing, but in fact? In fact, it has long been in ruins!

The emperor may feel that what his father said is a bit exaggerated, but his father tells you that it is not an exaggeration at all!

The way of the king lies in balance, is the power game of the Ming Dynasty balanced? Unbalanced, even badly unbalanced!

For balance, it is nothing more than to find a balance from relatives, clans, nobles, military generals, civil officials and eunuchs, so that they can contain each other and restrain each other, and either party needs to want the support of the emperor, so that the king can sit firmly.

But in Daming...... Relatives do not exist, most of the queens of the Ming Dynasty were born in small families, such as your mother's father is only a showman, and a very few are from the Zhongshan palace like the Empress Xu of the Yongle Emperor, but after the success of the Yongle Emperor, the power of the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Dingguo was also limited.

As for Emperor Taizu, he was even more ruthless, in order to clear the obstacles for Emperor Jianwen, he directly set off the blue jade case, and there were dozens of Huaixi nobles before and after, so the Ming Dynasty had never heard of any relatives messing with the government.

As for the clan, the emperor must also know that Emperor Yongle does not want future generations to follow his old path, so he adopts a policy of honoring the clan and confining it in a fiefdom, depriving the clan of the power to command the army, only allowing a small number of guards to be retained, and also sending brocade guards and officials to monitor at all times, so that even if the vassal king rebels, it is difficult to threaten the imperial rule, so the clan can be ignored.

The noble ...... of the Ming Dynasty Emperor Taizu killed a large number of people, and when Emperor Yongle succeeded to the throne, another batch of heroes came up, but unfortunately it was the change of the civil fort, the nobles of the Ming Dynasty were completely broken, and the nobles of the older generation who could compete with the civil officials in person were almost all withered, and the nobles of the lords, where would there be the blood and courage of the ancestors......

It is also since the Tumubao Change, the civil power has risen completely, they control the government, limit the imperial power, and even collude with the Jiangmen, and the only thing the emperor can rely on in the end is the eunuchs!

The emperor wanted to do anything, and he could only rely on the eunuchs, so Dongchang came into being, relying on the loyal dog Jinyiwei and the unscrupulous Dongchang fanzi, the emperor found a balance between the two.

So there was a peculiar triangular balance in the balance of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the civil officials could do anything to limit the imperial power, and the appearance of the eunuchs was to suppress the foreign dynasty without scruples, but the emperor only needed one sentence to send the eunuchs who were powerful to the guillotine, Liu Jin is the best example.

Zhengde Dynasty Liu Jin was majestic for four years, and died of attempting to rebel, at least his father did not believe in such a crime, because no matter what a person does, he must first analyze the pros and cons of gains and losses, why can Liu Jin suppress the world and make more than ninety percent of the officials in the world tremble in front of him?

It's because he relies on the emperor's momentum, if there is no such momentum, he Liu Jin is nothing, so in this world, the most unlikely to rebel is himself, because there is no benefit in opposing him, and there is not even a one-in-10,000 chance of success, why should he rebel?

However, Liu Jin died, and it was obvious that he was framed by the outer court and the inner court, because in addition to Liu Jin, the foreign court officials were not happy, and the inner court was also suppressed by him, and this result was unacceptable to both parties.

The royal brother is a man of temperament, and the most unbearable thing is to be betrayed by the people around him, so in the face of the so-called evidence, he didn't consider logic and rationality at all and made an order to Ling Chi Liu Jin!

However, as soon as Liu Jin died, the balance of this triangle was broken again......"
