Chapter 4 The First Cabinet of the Ming Dynasty

The Palace of Eternal Life, dead and silent.

Even the stammering little eunuch who was following Zhu Xiongying's side could feel that something was wrong, and his legs were so frightened that he swayed.

At the beginning, Lao Zhu engaged in separation, and a bunch of courtiers opposed it.

The result?

All pulled to the noon gate and cut down.

After all, Lao Zhu did the feat of 'all six or so servants and below are executed' when he was in the Guo Huan case, killing the entire officialdom at once, and killing this person is a ball.

This Huang Zicheng is really bold enough, when Lao Zhu is still angry, he really doesn't know whether to call him crazy or stupid.

There is no doubt that every word spoken in this Hall of Eternal Life today will enter Lao Zhu's ears.

Zhu Xiongying did not speak.

If he didn't say anything, the others naturally didn't dare to say anything.

It's a real headache. ’

In order to survive, Zhu Xiongying devoted himself to cultivating immortals and immortals, but after all, he was the emperor's grandson, and it was no surprise that the future Ming Emperor, Zhu Yunwen had to face the problems that Zhu Yunwen had to face in the original historical trajectory, and he also had to face them.

That is, cutting the domain.

Lao Zhu is very picky, very violent, and very centralized, but there is one thing, that is, the peasant genes engraved in his bones make him attach great importance to blood relations.

During the Hongwu period, a total of 25 kings were crowned, of which 24 were Lao Zhu's sons and a nephew, and these vassal kings had their own escort armies, ranging from 10,000 to tens of thousands.

Especially the nine great Sai kings guarding the north, such as King Yan, King Qin, King Jin, King Ning, etc., are all tens of thousands of soldiers with armor, and they are all fierce soldiers who have gone through actual combat, such as King Ning's Duoyan Sanwei, which is a warrior who can cut three.

In this case, it is good that the imperial court occupies a strong position, but once it is weak, or there are signs of entering a weak position, the problem will be like a flood that cannot be stopped.

For example, the current situation of 'Lao Zhu Chuidu, Ah Biao is critically ill, and the emperor's grandson cultivates immortals', in the eyes of the vassal king, this is a proper opportunity, after all, the position of the emperor is addicted to everyone.

As in the original historical trajectory, was Zhu Di subjectively rebelling or being forced to rebel?

Even if historians turn the table over, no one can fully argue this point.

And judging from Zhu Xiongying's secret observation over the years, none of his uncles and even cousins are peaceful, and many of them are different from what is said in the history books, is it all because of the butterfly effect?

Zhu Xiongying glanced at Huang Zicheng, the performance of this product in the history books is a serious nerd, such as 'It is recommended to put King Yan aside first', 'Recommend Li Jinglong' and other fatal feats.

But this product is the top student in the college entrance examination, saying that he is a fool, Zhu Xiongying absolutely does not believe it.

Mind reading, on.

Good fellow, scheming dog.

Zhu Xiongying saw through Huang Zicheng's Xiao Jiujiu at a glance, and originally thought that this product was Gengzhi, but he didn't expect that he was casting a long line to catch a big fish.

Huang Zicheng calculated that 'cutting the domain' is a problem for the future successor of the Ming Dynasty, as long as he is sincere at this time, he will definitely gain the trust and protection of His Royal Highness Taisun, and the old emperor will not live long, the probability of being killed is not large, at most he will wait for Lao Zhu to die in prison.

What's wrong with going to jail? How can it be important to fly in the future!

Everyone's faces changed in shock, but Huang Zicheng was indifferent, looking like a minister who looked at death as home.

"Huang Zicheng's words are disobedient, his sin is unforgivable, he is sent to prison, and he will be beheaded on a certain day."

Zhu Xiongying said lightly, and it sounded like five thunders in Huang Zicheng's ears.

My heart is full of '??? ’。

He never thought that His Royal Highness the Imperial Prince would be so tyrannical! How is this different from his grandfather?!

Everyone was stunned, and their hearts were all chuckled, why is this style so familiar?

The tyrant is in charge, it seems that life will not be easy in the future, and besides, His Royal Highness the Taisun is not only violent, but also faint.

Faint tyrant, the Ming Dynasty is about to finish its calves.

It was Shangshu Tyrant Zhao of the Criminal Department who was the first to react and ordered someone to escort the sluggish Huang Zicheng out, after all, the Heavenly Prison was in the Criminal Department under his jurisdiction.

"Lone is going to rest."

In a word, all the ministers withdrew from the Hall of Eternal Life in a cold sweat, and after Huang Zicheng's toss, even if they wanted to say something, they could only swallow it back into their stomachs.

As soon as these people left, more than a dozen internal officials walked in quickly, all holding high-height folds, and Zhu Xiongying's scalp was numb, if he really wanted to finish these folds, would he still be alive?

996 is already inhumane, especially this is 007!

"Someone."

Zhu Xiongying leaned back on the sofa chair and suddenly thought of something.

The little eunuch hurriedly listened obediently.

"Summoning Sanyang to Lonely."

Zhu Xiongying, who has been in the soul for 16 years, is indeed ignorant of things outside the window, and only cultivates immortals, but it does not mean that he will do nothing, after all, sooner or later he will be an excellent young man who will be the emperor.

The main thing is to prepare more in advance, so that you can cultivate immortals with more confidence in the future.

These three Yangs, that is, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Yang Pu, in the original historical trajectory, the four dynasties of Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande, and orthodoxy, formed the Sanyang cabinet, created the prosperous era of Renxuan, known as the first cabinet of the Ming Dynasty.

As early as two years ago, Zhu Xiongying had fooled these three people into Yingtianfu through methods, and had met them four or five times, and the correspondence was even more frequent, but he did not reveal his identity, but only as a confidant with similar interests, after all, except for Yang Shiqi, who is 33 years old, the other two are also 26 years old, and Zhu Xiongying is the same age.

The reason why Zhu Xiongying did this was to take these three to work for him, and the second was to investigate.

Although the history books blow these three people out of the blue, Yang Shiqi has learned, Yang Rong has talent, Yang Pu has elegant exercises, and he calls Shiqi "Xiyang", Rong "Dongyang", and Pu "Nanyang" by his residence.

But Zhu Xiongying still has to contact and investigate on the spot to be sure, after all, a full letter is better than no book.

Moreover, through observing many people over the years, Zhu Xiongying found that these people are different from what is written in the history books, which may be inherently different, may be misremembered historical materials, or may be affected by the butterfly effect.

For example, that Fang Xiaoru is said to be the seed of a scholar in the world, but Zhu Xiongying found that he likes to go to the Qinglou very much.

Zhu Xiongying is still very satisfied with the results of his inspection of Sanyang in the past two years.

These three people have their own shortcomings, but they are also all first-class talents, the most important thing is that they can complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, in Zhu Xiongying's view, this is the key reason why the Sanyang cabinet can be called the first cabinet of the Ming Dynasty.

Now that he is in charge of the country, there is no need to have any confidants.

It's not pretended, it's a showdown.

'Headache. ’

Zhu Xiongying rubbed his eyes, and a pair of panda eyes became darker and darker.

He wanted to sleep, but the sun outside was too harsh, and there were no blackout curtains or anything like that in those days.

"That's it, let's study how to call the wind and rain."

Closing his eyes, a large list of spells, movements, arrays, and various objects that needed to be used automatically appeared in his mind, and Zhu Xiongying slowly pondered...

………………

Yingtianfu inner city, Yongliu Lane.

The spring breeze blows through the willows by the river, and there are three houses next to each other.

The two doors on the far left and the far right opened at the same time, and two talented young men with elegant faces walked out.

They looked at each other, and after a brief moment of stunnedness, they smiled and saluted each other.

"Brother Mian Ren, where are you going?"

Yang Pu asked with a smile.

"Go out of town to meet an old friend."

Yang Rong replied and asked rhetorically.

"Where does Brother Hongji want to go?"

Yang Pu's expression dodged slightly, and after a while, he said: "There is a powerful chess player from the Dong'an Chess Hall, I'll take a look." ”

The words just fell.

With a babble, the door in the middle opened, and the person who walked out had slightly dark and rough skin, and at first glance it was a bitter baby when he was a child.

"Brother Shiqi."

Yang Rong and Yang Pu saluted at the same time.

"There is a brother in my clan who has just entered Beijing, and he needs to go and see him."

Yang Shiqi apparently heard the conversation between the two inside the door.

The three of them looked at each other and laughed.

Then the three-man carriage came out of the alley, one facing east, one west, and one south.

Half an hour later.

The three carriages arrived at the northbound Imperial Grandson's Mansion at the same time.

Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Yang Pu, all three of them stood side by side in front of the Imperial Grandson's Mansion with embarrassed smiles, and they were a little confused in their hearts.
