Chapter 50: Smart people know to stay away from their uncles and grandfathers
Lao Zhu can hand over the Lanyu case to Zhan Hui to handle, which shows how much trust he has in him.
Zhan Hui has done countless dirty things for Lao Zhu, and the blue jade case he finally handled is also the last step in gilding Zhan Hui.
Unfortunately,
Zhan Hui was careful all his life, and finally capsized in the process of handling the Lanyu case.
This has nothing to do with ability, Zhan Hui has handled the Lanyu case to the last step, and it is about to end.
As for why he overturned, or because he provoked his uncle and grandfather,
Zhan Hui even coaxed and deceived him, found out countless henchmen who accompanied Lan Yu to rebel, and also killed one stubble after another.
There was only one last step left, just execute Lan Yu directly,
Zhan Hui felt that it was not enough, and he had to personally interrogate Lan Yu,
In the process of interrogating Lan Yu, he was naturally tortured,
Anyway, Lan Yu was in prison at that time, he was a lost dog, and Zhan Hui didn't take Lan Yu seriously at all.
But
No one thought that a dying tiger is also a tiger,
Uncle and grandfather's operation before he died directly killed Zhan Hui,
Zhan Hui asked Lan Yu to explain who else rebelled with him,
The blue jade looked like a madman, pointing at Zhan Hui,
yelled,
"He's my accomplice! He's my accomplice! ”
Lan Yu's move directly scared Zhan Hui to pee,
Because Zhan Hui knows it,
Most of the people killed in the Blue Jade case were innocent,
But for political reasons,
Lan Yu's rebellion is even more nonsense,
The important thing is that His Majesty wants to tear off the group of people who have nepotism with Lan Yu, so as to pave the way for His Royal Highness Zhu Yunwen,
Zhu Yunwen can't use Lan Yu, Lan Yu can only die,
nevertheless
But this unspoken rule cannot be said,
On the surface, the folk saying is that Lan Yu rebelled,
And Lan Yu admitted it in front of so many people, and the first rebel was Zhan Hui,
Even if Lao Zhu dotes on Zhan Hui again, he can only endure the pain and do it to Zhan Hui.
Zhan Hui was about to reach the peak of his career, but he was dragged into the water by Lan Yu without knowing it.
No one is competing with Zhan Hui for MVP, I don't know why he is in such a hurry,
Lan Yu's operation, even Lao Zhu didn't expect that his uncle and grandfather put Lao Zhu together before he died.
If Zhan Hui can survive to the Jianwen Dynasty, he must have great energy in the court, and Huang and Qi may not be so powerful in front of Zhu Yunwen.
In the end, it has to be an uncle and grandfather, a smart person like Yao Guangxiao, he can see it at a glance, you can have fun with whomever you want, but don't have fun with Master Hou,
But Zhan Hui didn't understand, and wanted to beat the water dog, so he directly put himself in.
However, putting these aside, Zhan Hui's business ability is definitely enough.
Lao Zhu has used all theories since the uprising,
The Red Turban Army is a rebel army under the guise of Buddhism, in which Mingjiao, White Lotus, and Maitreya are mixed, and all the sects unite to revolt.
Among the Buddhists, Lao Zhu raised his hand and said that he had been in the temple for a long time and believed in Buddhism the most.
With his devout belief in Buddhism, Zhu Yuanzhang harvested the first pot of gold in his life.
As there are more and more people under Zhu Yuanzhang, the development of the righteous army is getting bigger and bigger.
Lao Zhu also began to think about where this rebel army should go.
The initial uprising was to oppose the Yuan, and in the second half of the process, Lao Zhu's goal was also changed to establish a Han dynasty.
And the establishment of the Han dynasty, it is obvious that the Buddhist teachings of the Red Turban Army cannot be used as a mainstream ideology at all.
At the same time, in order to win the support of the Jinhua School in Jiangnan, Lao Zhu skillfully shifted his attitude from Buddhism to Confucianism.
Lao Zhu told the people of the world that his most important thing is Confucianism, and Confucianism is the most fundamental doctrine of the Han Dynasty.
When Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates asked Zhu Yuanzhang, didn't you say that Buddhism was the most important thing when you rebelled?
Zhu Yuanzhang killed this subordinate with a backhand,
And said with an innocent face,
"Did we say that? When did we say that?
Buddhism? What is Buddhism? ”
For Lao Zhu, Buddhism or Confucianism is just a means to an end.
These means are subject to change.
Lao Zhu came from a humble background, and unlike other founding emperors, he had a clear system of governance.
Lao Zhu is just learning and groping for what is useful and what is useful.
It turns out that
On the contrary, such a move is more effective, and the eclectic concept of statecraft can obviously be more applicable to different situations.
But
Lao Zhu is not without a doctrine that he particularly agrees with, from beginning to end, Lao Zhu admires the Legalist doctrine the most
The laws of the Ming Dynasty, the three articles of the Great Edict, the laws specially designed by the vassal kings, etc., the laws of the Ming Dynasty are extremely severe.
Lao Zhu has always believed in the use of heavy codes in troubled times,
At the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, there was a mixture of fish and dragons, and there was also the Northern Yuan Dynasty eyeing the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, Lao Zhu used extremely harsh criminal law to restrain the people of the world, and also achieved excellent results.
And
Lao Zhu's special use of Zhan Hui also shows Lao Zhu's heavy method,
Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are just appearances, and the law is the core of the Ming Dynasty.
Lao Zhu looked at Zhan Hui, and even his tone eased a lot,
Speak,
"The library that our eldest grandson kindly made out, everyone can borrow books, but we don't have any opinions.
But if anyone spends these books, then we won't be happy. ”
Zhan Hui immediately understood,
Said respectfully,
"Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen will go and draft a law related to this and add it to the Da Ming Law."
Lao Zhu was happy when he heard this, and pointed at Zhan Hui to look at his eldest grandson,
Laughed and said,
"Big grandson, have you seen it? This is a good courtier!
You're going to have to use him well in the future! ”
What Lao Zhu said was heard in Zhan Hui's ears, so that Zhan Hui didn't have any waves in his heart.
This is no surprise in the Ming court.
His Majesty directly made a small dragon chair and placed it beside him, does this need to explain anything?
Everyone firmly believes that the next emperor will be Zhu Xiongying,
"Got it, grandpa."
Zhu Xiongying nodded and replied happily,
There are still too few Legalist talents like this in the Ming Dynasty, and how can Zhu Xiongying not cherish and reuse such scarce talents?
Lao Zhu laughed when he heard this, there are not many talents he carefully selected for his eldest grandson,
But every person selected is a capable man,
If the eldest grandson can be reused, then Lao Zhu will be completely relieved.
Zhan Hui glanced at His Highness gratefully,
After a pause,
Then he spoke,
"Your Majesty, it is not difficult to add this legal provision, but how to punish the crime?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment,
Then he waved his hand without hesitation and said,
"How can you punish the crime? Directly to corporal punishment!
Damn, our eldest grandson is kind, they don't cherish it, why are they kept?! ”
The corporal punishment of the Ming Dynasty was different from that of the previous dynasties,
Not only 黥 (qing two sounds), 劓 (yi four sounds), 刖 (yUe four sounds), Gong, Dabi these old five kinds,
In order to punish those who break the law, Lao Zhu played extremely perverted.
