Feeling Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, Xu Da, who had just poured a glass of wine into his mouth, was stunned.

A little overwhelmed: "Who." ”

And the more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more suitable it became, and he couldn't help but ask: "What the sister said is good, it's you, Xu Da!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Da, who was frightened, even dropped the wine glass in his hand on the table.

"I... Oh, you two are kidding! ”

But Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Xu Da, you have always had a high prestige among the civil ministers, and you are honest and brave, loyal and honest, and you are the prince of the country, the more we look at you, the more suitable you are!" ”

After speaking, he happily patted Xu Da's shoulder.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, Xu Da on the side said with sincere fear: "Superior, we will only lead troops to fight, we can't manage those political affairs, let alone those literary talents!" ”

"Then Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen, oh, by the way, and Brother Qi, which of them is not more suitable than us."

But Ma Xiuying on the side said: "It's one thing to be in charge of it, as long as you are put in the position of prime minister, it is a deterrent." ”

Regarding Xu Da's words about Qi Heng being the prime minister, Ma Xiuying didn't take it to heart.

She herself knows very well that the position of the left prime minister of Zhongshu Province is very critical, and it can almost be said that he exercises the right to govern the world on behalf of the emperor, which is too sensitive.

If Qi Heng does it, it will inevitably make Zhu Yuanzhang worried, and it is better not to do it at all than to make them suspicious of each other.

So I didn't think about Qi Heng to do it at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Ma Xiuying could say this, and he also felt very considerate in his heart.

At the very least, as his queen of Zhu Yuanzhang, Ma Xiuying is not like an ordinary woman, and everything good has to be arranged for her mother's family.

Between him Zhu Yuanzhang and Qi Heng, Ma Xiuying is still very good.

But having said that, Xu Da on the side also understood that there were some things that shouldn't be his, so he couldn't worry about them.

Otherwise, this good thing will turn into a bad thing.

With a slightly panicked expression, he said: "Superior, this meal is scary, we have to go." ”

But Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly grabbed Xu Da's arm with one hand and said, "Oh, come back, come back, listen well today." ”

After thinking for a while, he said: "In this way, all your military power is still the same, and none of the soldiers and horses will be moved, so let's let you be the prime minister of Zhongshu Province Zuo, what's the matter." ”

But Xu Da said resolutely: "If you have it, don't do it, don't do it, don't do it, resolutely don't do it." ”

But Zhu Yuanzhang said: "The more you call like this, the more we think you are suitable, why?" Because you're not a power-hungry person! ”

Ma Xiuying sang and sang to her wife on the side: "Also, love and righteousness, know right from wrong, and can afford to let go." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang also said: "Yes! Civilian, military and all-rounder, open-minded, it is difficult to find through the ages, one in a million! ”

Xu Da, who was praised by these two rainbow farts, hurriedly raised his hands and said in resistance: "Get it, ask for mercy, ask for mercy." ”

Then he hurriedly got up, held his hands and said: "You two sing and harmonize, you have to chop us up, the upper position, sister-in-law, you use it slowly, ah, we have to go back." ”

After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and ran away.

Seeing this scene, Ma Xiuying hurriedly shouted, while Zhu Yuanzhang on the side looked at Xu Da with a funny look, and couldn't close his mouth happily.

But turning around, Zhu Yuanzhang licked his face again and discussed with Ma Xiuying beside him: "Sister, what ideas do you have in the future, can we talk about it behind closed doors?" ”

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang, where is there still the arrogance when he just blamed Ma Xiuying in front of Xu Da, but he said good words like a little daughter-in-law who had been wronged.

However, Ma Xiuying would not really want her man to have such an attitude in front of her, and said very face-savingly: "I just said it casually, you really take it seriously." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Really! Naturally, take it seriously! Wow what an idea! ”

Ma Xiuying said the idea she had just come up with casually, and it sounded like Zhu Yuanzhang was all credited with the idea.

After all, Maxima often has, Bole does not.

The eye for discovering good things is the most important thing.

Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang also understood this, and picked up the wine glass in front of him and toasted with Ma Xiuying with a smile.

The tacit understanding and affection of the husband and wife are between these silent words.

This glass of wine is in the stomach, you know my heart, I know your mind.

Zhu Yuanzhang slowly put down the wine glass, looked at Ma Xiuying who was smiling beside him, and said, "Let's think of an errand for Jun Tao." ”

Listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Ma Xiuying just nodded and sighed.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help asking: "Don't you want to guess what errand we found for Juntao?" ”

Ma Xiuying still said with the same face as usual: "What is there to guess about this, do you still need to guess?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned: "Look at what you said, then tell me, what position do we arrange for Juntao?" ”

Ma Xiuying immediately said: "You have given him the title of king, what position can he have?" Either it sounds bluffing, but you said that you wanted Jun Tao to stay by your side, naturally it will not be a false job, looking up and down, there are Xu Da and Li Shanchang in Zhongshu Province, and Liu Bowen in the Metropolitan Procuratorate to do the imperial history of Zuodu. ”

"Could it be that you want Jun Tao, the king of the backer, to be their deputy? So I guess, it must be the Privy Council! ”

Hearing Ma Xiuying's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened suddenly.

Boy.

I also thought of letting Qi Heng go to the Privy Council just now because of Xu Da, a military general, to manage Wenchen, which is good, Ma Xiuying guessed it in just a few words!

For a while, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt frustrated in his heart, and said: "You are a person, everything is good, but you are too smart!" ”

After speaking, he threw the chopsticks in his hand: "I won't eat it." ”

Leave with your back in a huff.

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's child-like temper, Ma Xiuying couldn't help laughing.

While laughing, he ate his own meal.

"If you don't eat and pull down, whoever is hungry will know for yourself."

The next morning, at the morning meeting.

This time, because of Zhu Yuanzhang's advance report, it was a large-scale court meeting, and there were many officials who came.

As the hundreds of officials in the Fengtian Hall saluted Zhu Yuanzhang, the eunuch on the dragon platform shouted loudly: "Today, the emperor will announce the candidates for the Zhongshu Province, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Privy Council, and the ministers will receive the decree!" ”

As soon as the eunuch finished shouting, the ministers, who had some guesses about the content of today's court meeting, looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang on the dragon chair.

One by one, they were looking forward to it, eager to hear their names from Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth.

Especially that Li Shanchang, from the very beginning, he claimed to be the Xiangguo of Zhongshu Province, and even others called him so.

even took the initiative to ask Zhu Yuanzhang for power, just to confirm his name.

Now that I have finally waited for this day, how can I not be excited and hesitant in my heart.

And Liu Bowen, who was standing beside Li Shanchang at this moment, secretly saw the solemn look on Li Shanchang's face, and understood in his heart that this Li Shanchang valued Zhongshu Province.

However, even if he, Li Shanchang, really became the left prime minister of Zhongshu Province, he was not inferior to him in the slightest.

And he has been personally named by Zhu Yuanzhang as the Zuodu Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

In comparison, he is calmer today.

He is also full of confidence in the future of his eastern Zhejiang department.

With Zhu Yuanzhang's trust and reuse, the foundation of his eastern Zhejiang department has been completed.

However, every time Liu Bowen, who was proud of the spring breeze, swept his eyes over Qi Heng, who was standing at the head of the generals, he always had an unconscious worry in his heart.

can think back left and right, and I don't feel that there is any contradiction between myself and Qi Heng.

On the contrary, Qi Heng's rival at this time should be Li Shanchang.

Thinking of this, I left a trace of worry in my heart behind.

At this moment, when Zhu Yuanzhang on the dragon chair looked at the ministers in the palace left and right, he slowly spoke: "Zhongshu Province is the center of the imperial court, inheriting the Son of Heaven, under the jurisdiction of six ministries and three courts, commanding hundreds of officials, and has the right to arbitrarily decide on the affairs of the world. ”

"The left prime minister is the leader, the right prime minister is the auxiliary, and the left and right prime ministers are all called the prime minister."

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was talking eloquently on the stage, Liu Bowen below accidentally found that Li Shanchang next to him, his hands hidden in the sleeves of his robe were trembling.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang on the stage finally said the candidate for the prime minister of Zhongshu Province.

"The candidate for the left prime minister of Zhongshu Province is, the former army marshal, Xu Da, the Duke of Wei!"

As these words came out, there were bursts of small discussions in the entire court.

When Xu Da heard that Zhu Yuanzhang had given himself this name without his consent, he couldn't help but put on a bitter face to Zhu Yuanzhang on the stage.

And that Li Shanchang, when he heard that the candidate for the left prime minister of Zhongshu Province was not himself, his whole body was a little unstable.

Fortunately, I endured it in the end.

And Liu Bowen on his side, although he didn't understand his expression on the surface, he was ecstatic in his heart.

This Li Xiangguo has been screaming for a long time, but now he has planted his head when he is about to kick the door.

The changes in the field, Zhu Yuanzhang on the stage saw it clearly.

Then he said: "The right prime minister of Zhongshu Province is, the Korean duke, Li Shanchang." ”

Hearing this, Li Shanchang on the stage finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now Zhu Yuanzhang said that the prime ministers of the left and right provinces in this Zhongshu Province are all called Xiangguo.

It can be regarded as saving the last shred of face for him, Li Xiangguo.

Otherwise, it will be so embarrassing for those who flattered him before and called him Lee Sang-kook to meet again.

However, although this was regretful in my heart, I quickly reacted.

They all know who Xu Da is.

Let him lead the troops to fight really has nothing to say, see if you let him govern the government, I'm afraid he won't be able to recognize all the words.

Can such a person be the prime minister of Zhongshu Province?

Can you lead hundreds of officials to carry out new policies?

When pigs fly.

To put it bluntly, Xu Da, the prime minister of Zuo, is an ornament in Zhongshu Province, and Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately wanted to send someone to suppress him Li Shanchang.

As for the actual administration and handling of government, to put it bluntly, it is still subject to his opinion of Li Shanchang.

Although the name is not Prime Minister Zuo, the essence is undoubtedly Prime Minister Zuo.

After thinking about this, this Li Shanchang was also calm.

Then, seeing that the officials on the left and right were discussing, but they forgot to thank him, he hurriedly threw his hand and shouted to Zhu Yuanzhang who was carrying him: "Minister, thank you!" ”

The rest of the officials were shouted like this, and they all suddenly remembered, and hurriedly shouted: "Wait for the order!" ”

Looking at the ministers below, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand casually and said, "Get up, we haven't finished talking yet." ”

Hearing this, everyone got up.

Subsequently, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to say in front of the hundred officials: "The original Yushitai was upgraded to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, separated from Zhongshu Province, and was appointed to supervise hundreds of officials, and was impeached. ”

"Hundreds of officials in the DPRK, up to the prime minister of Zhongshu Province, and generals in the army, all of them are observable."

"The Metropolitan Procuratorate is directly under our control."

In today's Ming Dynasty, most of the systems are the same as the Yuan Dynasty system.

But now, Zhu Yuanzhang has separated the Yushitai from Zhongshu Province and upgraded it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and even the prime minister of Zhongshu Province is within his supervisory authority.

What does this mean, this is to strip the power of the Zhongshu Province away!

Undoubtedly, it is also a weakening of the power of the prime minister of Zhongshu Province.

Not only that, the status of the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate can be compared with that of the Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province.

Just when everyone was thinking about this, Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "The Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is for, Sincerity Bo, Liu Bowen!" ”

When they heard the name Liu Bowen, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked.

Although Liu Bowen is indeed the first minister of the DPRK and China.

However, he has always been steadily pressed by Li Shanchang.

And now.

It turned out to be the left capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Inspectorate directly!

After the Yushitai was upgraded to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the physique of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was no worse than that of Zhongshu Province.

And Liu Bowen is the imperial history of Zuodu, and he is the prime minister of Zuo in Zhongshu Province!

But Li Shanchang is now just a right prime minister.

At this level, it is faintly lower.

Of course, Zhongshu Province is the Zhongshu Province in the end, although it is equal to the Metropolitan Procuratorate in terms of physical rank, but everyone also understands that the power actually controlled is different.

But this still can't be changed, Li Shanchang lowered Liu Bowen's head by half on the bright side.

Quietly, this Liu Zhongcheng, who did not move, was still no longer what he used to be.

Faintly became a giant in the court.

Even if it was Li Shanchang, when he was looking at Liu Bowen at this time, his eyes were full of vigilance.

Looking at the reaction in the court, Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied.

Isn't that exactly what he wants?

With that Liu Bowen thanking, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhu Yuanzhang again.

Especially the generals in the court.

They all knew that the people in this political matter had been selected, and the candidates for the imperial history who were responsible for inspecting the hundred officials and generals had also been decided.

Next, it's the military.

The first two candidates were unexpected by everyone, but this time I don't know if there will be any more surprises.

Just when everyone was thinking about this, Zhu Yuanzhang on the stage also spoke again: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate of Zhongshu Province has all been selected, and the next is the Privy Council." ”

"And the head of the Privy Council is ......"

"Backer King, Qi Heng!"

Since Zhu Yuanzhang led the army to leave Anfeng Road, enter Jinling City, and began to fight a decisive battle with Chen Youliang.

Qi Heng, the once great general who combined military and political affairs, gradually retired from the center of power.

The last time Qi Heng came to prominence, it was on the conferral ceremony.

Although Qi Heng's title of king surprised many people, this backer king was only a title and some fiefs after all.

Still did not enter the center of power above the court.

Such a situation has made many people forget about this former general.

And today, Qi Heng entered the Privy Council and became the head of the Privy Council, in charge of the world's army.

It was the day he returned to the center of power.

Thinking of the demeanor of the former king of the backer, the court was full of surprise for a while.
