Cut the royal family, and you can't be crowned king without merit!

No matter what, it can't be cut off on the heads of Zhu and Zhu Zhang, but what about after them?

With their ability, it is not difficult for them to make meritorious contributions, but who dares to pat their chests and guarantee that their children and grandchildren can produce talents from generation to generation and maintain their own glory and prosperity.

To put it thoroughly, Zhu Zhang, Zhu Zhang, Zhu Quan and others objected, not because they questioned their own abilities, but because they were thinking about the long-term and worried about the survival of their descendants, and they all wanted to eat in the merit book for a lifetime.

Use their simple and simple thinking to understand: this king is the son of Taizu, this king has made meritorious contributions to the Ming Dynasty, this king has shed blood for the Ming Dynasty, and the descendants of this king enjoy the enjoyment.

It was a matter of course to enjoy the support of the imperial court.

The imperial court doesn't support them, so what's the use of them wanting this noble status.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao's proposal was completely unacceptable to them, and together with the old Zhu Zhudi, they were also very resistant.

"Since you can't be crowned king without merit, should the royal family be the same?"

Lao Zhu said coldly and took Zhu Houzhao's army.

He didn't believe that Zhu Houzhao was so ruthless that he didn't even let go of his children and grandchildren.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they all looked at Zhu Houzhao with a joke in their eyes, and saw how Zhu Houzhao stepped down.

As the official vein of the royal family, if Zhu Houzhao does not lead by example, he can be a model, so why should he set rules for them.

However, they all underestimated Zhu Houzhao too much and underestimated Zhu Houzhao's determination.

I saw that Zhu Houzhao's face did not change, and he nodded and said: "My vein is orthodox on the throne, and I should be an example of the royal family." ”

"I hereby make a family rule, except for the prince who is clearly established as the heir to the throne, the other princes are not allowed to be crowned kings without merit."

"And all the princes, the royal family is only trained until the age of eighteen, and after being crowned at the age of eighteen, whether they will get ahead or be unknown to the public depends on their own creation."

Hiss~

Everyone gasped, and Zhu Houzhao's eyes became extremely strange, like looking at a cold-blooded monster.

They all knew that Zhu Houzhao was even more ruthless, but they didn't expect Zhu Houzhao to be so ruthless that he would not let go of his own children and grandchildren.

Other emperors, all day long, hollowed out their minds to seek benefits for future generations, and wanted their children and grandchildren to be carefree as soon as they were born, Zhu Houzhao was good, and simply did the opposite.

Whoever wants to be Zhu Houzhao's descendant is definitely a blood mold for eight lifetimes, after all, there is only one throne, and there is only one prince who can be the emperor.

Unless Zhu Houzhao has only one prince in each generation, otherwise, except for the heir to the throne, the life of other princes will not be easy.

can't compete for the throne, can't eat and wait for death, and has to go to the battlefield to make contributions, which dynasty and which country's prince is so unremarkable.

However, Zhu Houzhao is so strict with his children and grandchildren, and everyone has nothing to say.

Even if they boast of their noble status, they can't compare to Zhu Houzhao's descendants, you must know that in today's Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao is the only emperor, and Zhu Houzhao's vein is really orthodox.

Everyone exchanged eyes, intending to fight for one or two more, but they didn't know where to start.

Zhu Houzhao has given up the interests of his descendants to block the mouths of the people, and if they continue to mess around, it will be too uninteresting.

"I've made concessions, what else do you have to say?"

Zhu Houzhao's face was slightly cold, and he seemed to be a little annoyed.

In fact, the annoyance was just pretending to be seen by everyone, and his heart was as calm as water from beginning to end, without the slightest wave.

He had already thought of it as a king, including his own children and grandchildren, in order to ensure that his descendants would not have fat pigs waiting to die.

The more cruel the environment, the more you need to fight, and the more you fight, the easier it is to give birth to a wolf king with strong means.

What he wants is that future generations are full of wolf nature and aggressiveness, so that future generations can take Daming to go further.

The descendants of the royal family are all crowned kings, and if they are not crowned kings, they are also supported by the country, which is indeed very good to the descendants of the royal family, but there is no hotbed of turmoil, and only a group of incompetent people will be raised, just like a fool like Zhu Qizhen.

In order to prevent his children and grandchildren from becoming corrupt and degenerate, and the appearance of shameful wastes such as Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Houzhao had to create a sinister environment with his own hands, forcing his descendants to work hard and fight.

The wolf king grew up in persecution.

And the dissatisfaction of the old Zhu family just prompted him to take the opportunity to complete this initiative, his descendants want to complain, they will complain about the old Zhu family, and he has nothing to do with Zhu Houzhao, he also has to do it.

Everything is under his control.

"What a Zhu Houzhao, ruthless enough, absolutely absolute!"

The interests of his descendants will be abandoned, Lao Zhu secretly sighed for a while, and finally understood why he lost to Zhu Houzhao.

People in the world always say that Emperor Hongwu is ruthless, and if he doesn't agree with him, he will send the brothers who started a business together back to his hometown in Xitian, but compared with Zhu Houzhao, Lao Zhu feels that he is simply a big kind person!

Zhu Houzhao, not kind!

After Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Qiyuan and Zhu Kai's faces changed slightly, and they didn't quite understand Zhu Houzhao's thoughts.

Zhu Houzhao loves power and is not lustful, and only one son, Zhu Qiyuan, can unscrupulously propose that he should not be crowned king without merit, but they are different.

Zhu Qiyuan is still young, there is no guarantee that there will be no heirs born in the future, and the throne cannot be passed to Zhu Kai, so the other heirs will not be ignored!

The same goes for Zhu Kai!

They are not Zhu Houzhao, they can't become prisoners of power, and they can't be ruthless to future generations.

"Dad, isn't there something wrong with this?"

Zhu Qiyuan secretly said to himself, hoping that Zhu Houzhao would think about it more.

Zhu Houzhao glared at Zhu Qiyuan and replied: "I have my own opinions on this matter, and I will tell you more about it when I go back." ”

Zhu Houzhao's idea of not being crowned king without merit will never be changed, even if he is persuaded by his own son, it is useless.

The Ming Dynasty wants to move forward, the royal family is a hurdle that cannot be overcome, and the implementation of elite policies is also to ensure that the royal family will not have the same shame as Zhu Qizhen.

"Why, you all have nothing to say?"

Glancing at the silent crowd, Zhu Houzhao spoke up again.

At this point, what else can everyone say, they have all acquiesced to Zhu Houzhao's decision.

Reducing the royal family and not being crowned the king without merit is basically to prevent the royal family from having moths, which everyone can see more or less, and they all know the harm of the vassal king to the Ming Dynasty.

Why did the former Chongzhen Dynasty crumble, in addition to the Donglin Party's foolishness, the vassal king group was also a major reason.

The reason why everyone is dissatisfied is, in the final analysis, just because of the word "interests", in the case of obviously saying that Zhu Houzhao is not moved, even if they are dissatisfied, they have to nod their heads and admit it.

is still the same sentence, the current emperor is Zhu Houzhao.

And they, Zhu Houzhao gave them face, they are still the royal clan, but it is ugly to say that they are Zhu Houzhao's captives, and they are not qualified to argue with Zhu Houzhao.

Those who know the times are Junjie!

"Since you have nothing to say, I will take this matter as your acquiescence."

Zhu Houzhao wrote lightly: "The first two things of the third chapter of the covenant have passed, and now we can talk about the third thing." ”

Everyone was shocked and knew that the real highlight was coming.

It's like eating a feast, the best dish is often served last.

They were extremely sure that this third thing must be extremely important.

"The third thing, to determine the legitimacy of the throne."
