Chapter 146: Power over the world
Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he had been completely subdued, groaned slightly, and said slowly: "From Ming'er, when you don't go to the East Palace to study, you can also go to Guozijian and Cao Guogong Li Jinglong's group of boys to study together, if I want you to go to the court to discuss major matters, I will send someone to your house to pass the decree." It turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang had the intention of cultivating Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, and asked them to go to Zhu Biao, the prince of the East Palace, every other day, to accompany the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, and listen to Fang Xiaoru's lectures, hoping to use Confucian education to imperceptibly make them willing to be loyal to Zhu Biao, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the future.
Zhu Quan heard that he was going to get along with a group of sour Confucians, his scalp was also a little numb, and he was angry in his heart, and couldn't help but ask softly: "What about the fourth brother?" Saying this, I couldn't help but think viciously in my heart: Zhu Laosi used to tell me what it was difficult to be a brother and a brother, since the battlefield is on the battlefield together, and the black pot is carried together, then this drudgery of reading naturally cannot be without you.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard him say this, his face sank, and he asked: "If I don't ask your fourth brother to go to Guozijian to study, do you think your father is unfair?" ”
Zhu Quan also fought bloody battles with the Yuan army when he was in Gyeongju, and in the face of the overwhelming rain of arrows from Nahachu's 80,000 army, he experienced several near-deaths and survived, and his courage was very different from that of the past.
Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he was so strong, and his heart was also mixed with anger and a little relief. Annoyed that this son was also the same as the two stunned men who patrolled the city and Zhou Guanzheng, and stood up a tendon to the end, and it was gratifying that after he experienced the expedition to Liaodong, his courage was already very different from when he had not left Yingtian before. Imagine if this rabbit cub was shocked by a few words to himself, how would he lead the army to defend the north in the future, so as to serve as a court domain? Thinking of this, he snorted coldly and said slowly: "Okay, after leaving the palace, I will go to your fourth brother's place, pass on my message, and let him go to the Guozijian with you in the future." ”
Seeing that Zhu Laosi had finally been dragged into the water, Zhu Quan bowed down with a satisfied smile and said, "My son thanks my father for his grace." {Oriental Fiction .com}"
Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he looked like a villain, he couldn't help waving his hand, and scolded with a smile: "Remember to practice martial arts more, and wait for the army to go on an expedition to Mobei, and Di'er and you will go on an expedition with the army, go." ”
After Zhu Quan bowed, he walked out of the imperial study and walked towards the outside of the Wuying Palace, and as soon as he got out of the palace gate, he saw a eunuch in his fifties greeting him with a smile and nodding his head, it was Xue Jing, the head of the imperial study.
The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Zhu Quan saw that the other party looked respectful, and also nodded with a smile and said: "This king has been away from the Beijing Division for a long time, and Chief Xue has always been good?" ”
Although Xue Jing is named the head of the imperial study, he has no real power, not to mention Jiang Xian, the leader of Jinyiwei, Li Ling He can't afford to provoke, even those civil and military generals in the court, when they see him, they always look high-spirited, it is precisely because of this that he also wants to make more friends with His Royal Highness King Ning, who is kind and respectful to His Majesty the Emperor, and seeks a backer. Hearing this, he hurriedly smiled and said: "Thanks to His Highness, the old slave is still in good shape." Speaking of this, he said in a low voice: "The old slave has been serving His Majesty for more than two years, except for His Royal Highness King Yan and you, I have never seen other princes who can be summoned by His Majesty alone, which shows how much he values you, and I will ask His Royal Highness to take more care of the old slave in the future." ”
Zhu Quan heard him say this, his heart moved, and he secretly thought to himself: Although Xue Jing has no real power, after all, with the old man's side, this temple is also like a battlefield, fighting wits and strength, and multiple ears and eyes are only good, thinking about this, he asked in a low voice: "Could it be that Manager Xue still has something difficult?" ”
Xue Jing approached Zhu Quan's side and whispered: "The old slave heard that when His Royal Highness accompanied His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun in the East Palace, he had some unpleasantness. I think it is Bai Zheng's kid who made it bad from it, when this kid entered the palace in the past, if it wasn't for the old slave's care, how could he have such a blessing today, go to the East Palace to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Emperor's grandson, this kid is only in such a position at this time, he dares to offend His Royal Highness, and when His Royal Highness the Prince ascends the throne in the future, will he have to go to the sky? "It turns out that Bai Zheng is a young eunuch who serves the prince Zhu Biao's father and son, and in the past, he also went to the palace of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, to send a decree to let him accompany him to the East Palace.

Zhu Quan heard Xue Jing say this, recalling the arrogant spirit of the little eunuch Bai Zheng when he came to his mansion to deliver the decree, his face sank slightly, and when his mind turned, he already understood Xue Jing's intention to provoke himself to deal with Bai Zheng, and secretly thought to himself: Last time I stung Zhu Yunwen with a bee in the imperial study, Zhu Laosi pleaded for Bai Zheng before covering up the matter, and later when Bai Zheng was not in charge of Zhu Yunwen's father and son and Fang Xiaoru, he saw Zhu Laosi was respectful, At this time, it has become the eyes and ears of Zhu Laosi in the East Palace, and it is not necessarily. Thinking back to what he saw in the temple today, the influence of the crown prince Zhu Biao among the civil servants and military generals that was far beyond the reach of himself and Zhu Di, and he felt that under this situation, there was no need for him to punish Zhu Laosi, who was so insignificant for such an insignificant role.
Thinking of this, Zhu Quan sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "Bai Zheng, that kid has been helped by the fourth brother, and now I have a very good relationship with the fourth brother. ”
Xue Jing is an extremely shrewd person, as soon as Zhu Quan's two seemingly unrelated words came out, he couldn't hear the meaning of Zhu Quan's words, and when he heard that this Bai Zheng had found Zhu Di, the king of Yan, as a backer, he felt a little bad in his heart.
"Manager Xue doesn't need to worry too much, I'll go to the fourth brother to find out. Even if you can't have one more friend, it's always good to have one less enemy. Zhu Quan said with a smile as he left Xue Jing and walked along the royal road towards Hongwu Gate.
Xue Jing has been in the palace for a long time, and he also understands in his heart that intrigue under Zhu Yuanzhang's nose will never benefit everyone at all. He said these words to Zhu Quan today, and he couldn't hold back his hatred for Bai Zheng for a while, recalling the methods of the shrewd emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and Jiang Xian, who was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard today, and also felt that Zhu Quan's words were reasonable, silently looking at Zhu Quan's back as he drifted away, and secretly thought to himself: His Royal Highness King Ning acted in the past, quite a bit of a young man's will, but since he came back from Liaodong, he has become more and more calm and shrewd.
In the imperial study of Wuying Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up after watching the recital for a while, walked a few steps slowly, and suddenly said in a deep voice to the two eunuchs waiting outside the study: "Go and call Li Ling." ”
After half a cup of tea, a young man wearing a brocade guard costume came to the imperial study and bowed to the ground, it was Li Ling, the leader of the "gold" guard who was in charge of the security of the Forbidden City and belonged to Zhu Yuanzhang.
The two eunuchs waiting at the door of the imperial study knew that every time the emperor summoned Li Ling alone, there was no one in the palace, and they had already left the palace far away.
Zhu Yuanzhang waited for him to stand up and stood to one side, and asked in a deep voice, "Have all the manpower been arranged?" ”
Li Ling bowed slightly and said in a low voice: "Since His Majesty issued a secret decree two years ago, Wechen has already arranged for his subordinates who are strong in martial arts and loyal to His Majesty to enter the wood, water, fire, earth, and four guards, and now they have all served as the deputies of the four guards.
It turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang set up 16 institutions called "capital divisions" across the country to control the military power of key cities in their respective provinces. The official positions of the three powerful governors of the capital division are, in order, the commander of the capital and the second rank, the highest military governor of the local government. All command the same knowledge from the second product, and all command the third product. Most of these officials obeyed the orders of the Ministry of War, but the only one in Jiangsu, Yingtian, the capital of Gyeonggi Province, was independent of the Ministry of War, and only the emperor's military talisman could be transferred. He let Li Ling's Jinyi Wei secretly infiltrate this critical place, serving as the second and third in command, and they didn't know each other, just in case.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and asked in a low voice, "Have there been any troubles recently?" ”
Li Ling said solemnly: "When Guozijian and several six-grade priests were drinking yesterday, they said that His Majesty was too mean to his courtiers. Speaking of this, he raised his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Don't take Sour Xiucai's few words seriously." Speaking of this, he walked to the desk, picked up a copy of the recital to watch, and said without raising his head: "You let the subordinates of Guozijian look at Zhu Di and Zhu Quan, if they have any strange theories, report to me quickly, go ahead." ”
Li Ling bowed down and took the order, and secretly thought to himself in his heart: Your Majesty has an ingenious idea, set up five guards of Jinyi and Wei to contain each other, spread all over the key places under the Great Tomorrow, abolished the post of prime minister, and directly controlled the six departments. As the saying goes, if you rebel, you won't succeed in three years. Although the military department nominally holds military power, a bunch of nerds don't know anything about fighting, can they turn the sky upside down? Feng Shengsuo led an expeditionary army, surrendered Nahachu and returned, and as soon as the army entered the pass, it was quickly disbanded and each returned to his own guard. After Feng Sheng returned to Yingtian and handed over the handover of the handsome seal, he was only the governor of the five armies with an empty title, and he couldn't be moved at all in this Gyeonggi important place. I am afraid that among the countless emperors throughout the ages, only His Majesty the Hongwu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty can truly claim to be the most powerful in the world, and he has the power of life and death in one hand.
Zhu Quan walked slowly on the royal road, and had already come to a place not far from Hongwu Gate.
At this moment, a young man in front of him wearing the uniform of the commander of the brocade guard walked quickly, it was Jiang Xian, who was only promoted today.
Although Jiang Xian knew that the identity of His Royal Highness King Ning was extremely strange, such a secret thing involved the royal face of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Hongwu, and there was nothing to use for this handle. At this time, seeing him walking slowly and gracefully, he had no choice but to stand sideways and greet him.
