Chapter 43: The King of the Frontier

After the discussion of the matter of Feng Wang Shubian, Li Shanchang remembered Hu Weiyong's request and decided to push the boat down the river to help Hu Weiyong intercede.

"Qi Yu is on the throne, and the minister has a reluctant request."

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood at the moment, his eyes couldn't help narrowing, and he said with a smile:

"What else is there to do, just say."

"Superior, the county order of Shanghu County cannot be hung empty all the time, and the minister recommended Hu Weiyong to serve as the county order of Shanghu County."

Li Shanchang's tone was very casual.

In his cognition, it is just a county order, and Zhu Yuanzhang will give himself this face no matter what.

After all, no matter how you say it, he is also a prime minister, although he usually does not need to deal with government affairs, but Zhu Yuanzhang still takes him seriously.

"Hu Weiyong is capable, conscientious and conscientious, and he can be regarded as a cadre, and he will definitely be able to serve as the county commander of Shanghu County."

Just when Li Shanchang felt that this matter was safe, the smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face gradually converged.

"Did Hu Weiyong ask you to intercede?"

The tone was no longer as relaxed as before, but became a little gloomy.

For Hu Weiyong, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed very satisfied at the beginning.

But this Hu Weiyong was too clever and dared to kill King Xiao Ming without authorization.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang also had this idea at the beginning, he was not ready to start, because he knew that if he really did this, he would definitely leave a bad reputation.

Either way, it was the nominal leader of the rebels.

Zhu Yuanzhang could have used a softer way to let King Xiao Ming take the throne himself, instead of killing him roughly.

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's unkind tone, Li Shanchang's heart suddenly burst out, and he didn't understand what the problem was, but he still said truthfully:

"Yes, Hu Weiyong came to find a minister today, hoping to serve as the county magistrate of Shanghu County."

"This Hu Weiyong's nose is quite smart."

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and said lightly:

"You go back first, we have our own arrangements for the affairs of Shanghu County."

"Yes!"

Li Shanchang bowed down and walked out of the upper study, and a cold sweat broke out behind his back.

Nearest the king nearest the gallows.

What is the origin of this Shanghu County? Is it so valued by the superiors?

After Li Shanchang decided to go back, he immediately asked people to go and investigate this Shanghu County, what happened in this county?

....

After Li Shanchang left, Zhu Yuanzhang was already frowning slightly.

"Father, why are you worried? Is it because you're worried about things in Shanghu County? ”

Zhu Biao saw Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance and asked out loud.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

The development of Shanghu County to such a scale can no longer be compared with the land of a county.

At this time, even Yingtian City may not be as prosperous as Shanghu County.

This involves not only the change of officials, but also the collection of taxes.

So far, Zhu Yuanzhang still doesn't know how many fertile fields and merchants there are in Shanghu County?

If the new appointee is a corrupt official like Li Jin, then Shanghu County is likely to decline and never regain its prosperity.

"Hu Weiyong, I have also heard that his ability is quite outstanding, why didn't my father hand over Shanghu County to him to manage?"

Although Hu Weiyong is obscure, he also knows the importance of the prince Zhu Biao, and will appear in front of Zhu Biao from time to time to brush up on his presence.

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said:

"Hu Weiyong is scheming and good at speculation."

"He, a fourth-grade Guanglu doctor, is now willing to surrender his identity and become a small county magistrate."

"It must have been in the early dynasty that I heard the importance we attached to Shanghu County, so I decided to give it a go."

"This person is cunning, although he has outstanding work ability, he is not necessarily the best candidate for the county order of Shanghu County."

Zhu Biao thought of Hu Weiyong's grade, and nodded suddenly, it seems that Hu Weiyong is not as loyal and honest as he seems.

"Let's not mention this matter, the next most important thing is to seal the king's borders."

Zhu Yuanzhang decided to do the current things well, and put aside the affairs of Shanghu County first.

"You go and inform Liu Bowen first, let your subordinates prepare a copy of the imperial history, let's see what these imperial history will say?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was cold, and although his tone was calm, he did not contain any emotion.

"Father, is Li Jin going to write it too?"

Zhu Biao suddenly remembered that Li Jin was also supervising the imperial history.

"Write, just cuddle the grass and beat the rabbit, if Li Jin dares to come to find death, just send him on the road!"

....

A few days later.

"Father, all the twists and turns of the officials are here."

After Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shanchang's momentum, Feng Wang Shubian was basically in a uproar in the court, and the civil and military officials could be said to be known to everyone, and no one knew about it.

In the end, under Zhu Yuanzhang's will, everyone had to make suggestions on this matter and write it on the fold for Zhu Yuanzhang to read.

"Has Li Jin's recital also been presented?"

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to see this bastard's suggestion to Feng Wang Shubian.

"It should have been presented."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he began to rummage through the folds, trying to find Li Jin's folds.

It didn't take long for Zhu Yuanzhang to find Li Jin's recital, slowly open it, and began to review it.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that Li Jin would definitely oppose the sealing of the king.

After all, in the whole world, except for him Zhu Yuanzhang, there may be no second person who can understand the meaning of sealing the king's borders.

Sure enough, Li Jin began with the Rebellion of the Seven Kings of the Western Han Dynasty, and then talked about the Rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty.

So much so that the Anshi Rebellion and the Rebellion of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms of the Feudal Towns degraded the feudal system to a mess.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was already flushed, and he couldn't wait to behead Li Jin on the spot now.

But seeing the back, Li Jin came to a turning point.

There is no best policy for adapting measures to local conditions, only the most suitable policy.

At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang did not divide the feudal king, but the second emperor died, and the world was in turmoil.

In the former Yuan court, there was no division of kings, but when the world was in turmoil, no one could stand up and turn the tide for the royal family.

Although Liu Bang divided the kings, which led to the rebellion of the Seven Kings in the Western Han Dynasty, the final surname of the world was Liu.

Although the Western Jin Dynasty was destroyed because of the Eight Kings Rebellion, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was able to protect the land south of the Yangtze River.

Now that the Ming Dynasty was established, it was a time of internal and external troubles, and the kings of the feudal dynasty could be more stable.

Not only that, but the prince became a vassal king, and he could also educate the people, which was a great achievement.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the end, his heart was turbulent, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

"Alas!!"

In the end, all the exclamations turned into a sigh.

Zhu Biao saw Zhu Yuanzhang's melancholy face, and asked in disbelief:

"Father, what's wrong?"

"Could it be that this Li Jin said something rebellious in the middle of the twists and turns?"

Zhu Biao's masters are all great Confucians, and these people are all people who have read poetry and books, so naturally they don't agree with Feng Wang Shubian.

They believe that the feudal system is a retrogression of history, a source of chaos, and the greatest harm to the crown prince Zhu Biao.

After all, the future of this world is Zhu Biao, if the kings are divided, it will be a hidden danger for Zhu Biao, and it will definitely cause a catastrophe in the future.
