The most important thing for Zhu Di to come to power has been done, that is, to see who is willing to belong to him, as mentioned in the previous chapter, Fang Xiaoru has been punished by the Ten Clans because he is unwilling to belong and insults Zhu Di, because of Fang Xiaoru's scolding, his family has died 873 people, we can't judge whether it is right or wrong, it seems that it makes sense whether it is right or wrong. Yao Guangxiao said to Zhu Di when he broke through Nanjing, "Yao Guangxiao will definitely not surrender, but please don't kill him, because if you kill him, all the scholars in the world will not dare to use him." Zhu Di agreed at the time, but he didn't expect what Fang Xiaoru said to be too much, so he couldn't hold back.

The matter has come to this point, the wood has been completed, fortunately, there are still two talented people Huang Huai and Xie Jin who are on Zhu Di's side.

After Zhu Di ascended the throne, the more he watched Huang Huai and Xie Jin, the more he liked them, these two people are great talents, and both of them can influence the thoughts of scholars in the world, so Zhu Di attaches great importance to these two people. Often let these two people communicate in their bedrooms, even if it is late at night, they will give the two of them a seat, and it is also at this time, the major events in the Yongle period are basically the suggestions given by these two people, "History of the Ming Dynasty" is written like this: "Chengzu ascended the throne, summoned symmetrical decrees, and ordered and Xie Jin to set up the royal couch left, and prepared consultants." Or until night, the emperor goes to bed, and he is still given a couch language, and the secret and important affairs are heard. ”

The epitaph of Huang Gonghuai, a scholar of Ronglu Doctor Shaobao's Household Department and a scholar of Wuyingdian University, also mentions: In the afternoon of the year, Emperor Taizongwen entered the orthodoxy, and was summoned for the first time. Where the court served, he was specially ordered to relieve the public and the public on the left side of the imperial couch to prepare advisers. Considering the ten thousand machines, the left room of the day is Fengtianmen, and the public is summoned every night, and the words are until the night. When going to bed or going to bed, they are given to sit on the couch and discuss, although they are not allowed to hear from each other.

It can be seen from these historical materials that Zhu Di still attaches great importance to Huang Huai.

At this time, Zhu Di was also a little puzzled, that is, whether he needed to continue to cut the domain, emotionally speaking, he was reluctant to continue to cut the domain, because they were all his siblings, on the other hand, he was worried about whether there would be a next self, what if so?

Regarding this matter, Zhu Di asked Huang Huai, Huang Huai thought for a while, and said categorically: "The minister thinks that it is still necessary to continue to cut the domain, but it needs to be carried out slowly, and it cannot cause too much impact like Emperor Jianwen. ”

After listening to this, Zhu Di said: "What you said is good, just follow what you say." ”

Huang Huai was overjoyed, he didn't expect Zhu Di to trust himself like this, he was very proud in his heart, he felt that he had a higher status in the emperor's heart, and he had a feeling of "villain's ambition", and he was almost laughing happily, but he still did not know how to be happy and angry, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

Xie Jin saw it clearly beside him, feeling that he was a little unfavored, and at this time, Zhu Di continued to ask: "My father, His Majesty, abolished the prime minister, but there is no one to help me, what do you say I should do?" You know, His Majesty the Emperor has completely revoked the province of Zhongshu, but there are pros and cons, and the disadvantages will not be less because there is no prime minister in the country, according to what I have learned, there are more than 1,000 copies of the Father's Emperor on the day of the seventh day, and there are more than 3,000 copies of various affairs. ”

Xie Jin and Huang Huai looked at each other, and they didn't know how to answer. Xie Jin said tremblingly: "Or, restore the prime minister system?" ”

After listening to this, Zhu Di waved his hand and said, "No, the ancestral system cannot be violated, is there any other way?" ”

Huang Huai said: "It's better to do this, you can ask some people to help Your Majesty deal with government affairs, the number of people is not too many, the best within ten people, Your Majesty, what do you think?" ”

Zhu Di: "Okay, that's what I want, I plan to set up a cabinet." Let some of the scholars of Hallym Academy help me. ”。

"Your Majesty."

"I'm tired, you can wait and retreat."
