First Minister of Ming Dynasty Chapter 609

This kind of large-scale division of the official system, at any time, will cause fierce confrontation, the old ministers are not convinced, and the various ministries are desperately adding chaos, tossing for several years, decades, and chicken feathers in one place, it is not too much.

With such combat power as Lao Zhu, he could only relied on the rise of a prison, a Hu Weiyong, to physically send away a large number of civil servants, and then he could barely abolish Zhongshu Province.

As a result, after keeping the six books, there is no further arrangement, which is equivalent to the emperor and the prime minister, who is terribly tired. Just after Hongwu's reign, the appearance of the cabinet brought back the prime minister, and even went a step further.

Therefore, it is definitely not an easy task to adjust the bureau and rationally divide power and responsibilities, and it is no less difficult than establishing a dynasty.

After all, it took Lao Zhu more than ten years to create a three-hundred-year-old Ming Dynasty, but it took more than 30 years to deal with civil and military affairs. overthrown.

But this time, the timing is so wonderful that even Zhang Ximeng didn't think of it.

He just made a layout, such as setting up a province under the door, such as holding an imperial examination, and attracting a large number of talents into the imperial court... But that's all, everything needs a good opportunity.

Otherwise, if Zhang Ximeng wanted to implement this set of propositions, he would inevitably argue with Li Shanchang and others. What was the final result? Both sides lost?

Or Zhang Ximeng replaces Lao Li and takes over Zhongshu Province?

This fight is useless.

But this time, the outbreak of salt eucalyptus, Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher's knife was held high, hundreds of officials were trembling with fear, and everyone was terrified. Zhang Ximeng returned to Yingtian and became the backbone of all officials, all expecting him to protect everyone.

And Zhang Ximeng also acted justly and sternly, and did come up with a plan to save the officials.

Just this plan, Baiguan is not so satisfied!

But what can they do?

If you even object to Zhang Ximeng's proposition, then the eucalyptus will be found on his head, and His Majesty's knife will slash at him, without any doubt.

Moreover, at this step, not only did he fail His Majesty, but he also took Zhang Xiang's face. In the eyes of others, it was a serious one.

Zhang Xiang saved you, but you are still not obedient. If you don't die, there is no reason!

As of now, no one has the ability to object.

Just be obedient.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood, and immediately ordered Baiguan to retire. He wanted to keep Mr. Zhang for dinner.

Everyone has eaten the royal banquet. For example, Wang Guangyang enjoyed it in the first few days.

But when it comes to Zhang Ximeng, the situation is a little different. Although the dishes are very simple, they can taste different tastes.

"Queen Empress, are you cooking by yourself?" Zhang Ximeng was startled.

Empress Ma chuckled, "Sir, you're very polite. In the first few years, Mr. came to our house every day to eat, and he didn't say anything!"

Zhang Ximeng blushed slightly, and could only say: "It's different, it's different, now that the queen's mother is in the world, how can I cook for the minister!"

Ma smiled, "Well said, I'm also a mother, and there was a little trouble at home just now, you know?"

Zhang Ximeng nodded, "I heard that the fourth son of the emperor is naughty and really needs discipline."

Hearing what Zhang Ximeng said, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help coughing, "Sir, Zhu Di is stubborn and true, but he is witty and intelligent, and he dares to act. Compared with other... princes, he is much better."

Empress Ma also agrees with this statement. She is not afraid of not knowing the goods, but is afraid of comparing goods.

Taking out Zhu Laosi alone, he really hated him, but after the battle, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that among the sons, the fourth child was the most similar to him.

Brave, fearless, and a good son of the emperor.

Especially compared with Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi, these two people were taught by eunuchs and literati.

A ten-year-old child, I can't say he is bad, but he is just uncomfortable.

You must know that if you are in the royal family, your mind is not right, and in the future, it is possible to develop a brother against each other, kill the king and kill the father.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma discussed for several days, and they were all worried.

Compared with the turmoil of state affairs, the family affairs made them even more upset.

Regardless of national or family affairs, Mr. Zhang is still required to help.

"Your Majesty, Empress, if I were to say, people can't survive on their own after all... Your Majesty, in order to be good to several princes, has appointed teachers for them individually, and arranged so many people to serve them, making them feel that the world is There is only myself, no one else. I don't know how to put myself in the shoes of myself, and I don't know how to control myself. ."

"The minister dared to propose, let the prince enter martial arts!"

"Martial arts?" Old Zhu asked curiously.

"Yes, the prince should still have the style of martial arts and set an example for the people. His Majesty set up a martial arts school and taught the generals personally. This time, he recruited school children from the army, the people, and asked to cover all aspects. These school children did not accompany the prince. To read, but to receive formal military education, and in the future, they should be trained into qualified generals. The princes also receive the same education and do the same things as schoolchildren. Don't say anything else, first train them into useful generals In the future, it will be much more convenient to be a vassal.”

If you don't realize the problem of the prince's education, you can't say these words casually, and it's useless to say it.

But at this moment, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma are quite agreeable.

Indeed, it's good to be a good general, anyway, it's much better than being manipulated, instigating trouble, and turning against brothers.

Lao Zhu also thought that when Zhu Ying was young, there was a juvenile battalion in the army, and he went to teach them.

These kids are all in the military right now and are doing pretty well.

Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi, if they can have their level, they can comfort themselves.

"Sir is really good, and this matter is done according to the wishes of the gentleman. Let's give a toast to the gentleman!"

Empress Ma next to her also raised her wine glass. Zhang Ximeng's face was simply bigger than the sky.

After a meal, Zhang Ximeng returned to the mansion, Meimei rested for the night, and then hurried to Zhongshu Province the next day.

Ashamed to say, Zhang Ximeng hadn't even seen his son on his trip home.

At this juncture, he really has no time.

But when Zhang Ximeng arrived in Zhongshu Province, he only saw Zhu Sheng.

"Where's Li Xiang?"

"Sang Li is sick and hasn't come yet."

When Zhang Ximeng heard this, he frowned immediately, Lao Li, can't you moisten it at this time?

Zhu Sheng pondered for a while, and then he said: "Zhang Xiang, your idea, the old man has been thinking about it for a whole night, but he always thinks it is not so easy. I see what Li Xiang means, and I intend to let Zhang Xiang take over the palm of the book, and the door is there. , and it must be Zhang Xiang..."

Zhang Ximeng was even more surprised, and said hurriedly, "Thank you, Mr. Fenglin, for reminding me that you are always under arrest in Zhongshu Province, and I will go and see Li Xiang."

After speaking, Zhang Ximeng hurried to see Li Shanchang.

When he arrived, he found that Li Shanchang was in the study, with a memorial in front of him. He was writing and writing. Seeing Zhang Ximeng coming, he hurriedly stood up.

"Zhang Xiang, please take a seat, I am ashamed!"

Zhang Ximeng sat down and glanced at it, and what Lao Li wrote was begging for bones and bones.

Li Shanchang didn't hide it from Zhang Ximeng, "Zhang Xiang, you see such a big thing happened in the imperial court. As the prime minister, no matter what, it is not suitable for me to stay in the imperial court. After so many years, I have been wishful thinking. But now , I have become more and more clear that only Zhang Xiang can take charge of Zhongshu and assist Zuo Tianzi, I, I am not worthy!"

Li Shanchang trembled and handed what he had written to Zhang Ximeng.

"Zhang Xiang, I plan to report to His Majesty now, please resign and return to my hometown. I will leave the matter of Zhongshu Province to Zhang Xiang. I am sincere, and I have not deceived at all!" Old Li was about to cry, "It is not true. By the way, these days, my neck has been blowing cold wind, I, I always feel that if this goes on, I am afraid that my body will be in a different place, and I will peel the last. Zhang Xiang, you should save this old man's life! "

Zhang Ximeng had a sullen face, very annoyed and helpless.

Li Shanchang's resignation, whether true or not, Zhang Ximeng can understand.

At this point, he, the left minister, was really embarrassed.

But the problem is that Li Shanchang can't go and can't go.

Now that the prestige of Menxia Province has just been established, Zhang Ximeng must personally preside over the men, select elite soldiers, and run government affairs. If you miss this opportunity, a super yamen like Menxia Provincial will never succeed again.

In any case, Zhang Ximeng must guard the door.

But that's where the trouble is.

Throughout the entire court, although Li Shanchang was not very good, he was also the only civil servant who could deal with Zhang Ximeng.

Otherwise, someone else would sit in the position of Zhongshusheng, and when they saw Zhang Ximeng, they would have to kneel directly, and they would not dare to let out the air.

In that case, it would be tantamount to merging Zhongshumenxia.

Zhang Ximeng directly became a super prime minister, and he could be on par with Boyan, Tuotuo and others.

Obviously this was not Zhang Ximeng's original intention.

You Li Shanchang must persevere for a few more years to maintain the operation of Zhongshu Province and wait for the proper operation of Menxia Province.

At that time, it would be easy to choose officials with enough prestige to take over the Zhongshu Province, or Zhang Ximeng to simply resign from the Menxia Province.

"Brother Li, if you want to resign now, you will definitely offend the lord. When the time comes, the lord will say why Li Shanchang ran away? Is it because he is greedy for ink and dare not face us? Don't worry, I won't tell you for you at that time. In a word!"

"Thanks... No!" Li Shanchang suddenly widened his eyes, "Zhang Xiang, you, you are going to die!"

Zhang Ximeng said: "It's your brother Li going up to the room and taking the stairs~www.mtlnovel.com~ at such a critical moment, you left and threw me in the court. If you don't put morality first, what can I do!"

Li Shanchang almost cried, "Zhang Xiang, it's not that I don't preach morality, it's just that I don't have the ability to continue to stay in the court, I, I'm afraid that my body will be different!"

"Then you're gone now, aren't you afraid of death?" Zhang Ximeng asked with a smile.

Hearing this in Li Shanchang's ears, goosebumps all over his body, which is more scary than a life-threatening charm.

"Zhang Xiang, you, do you really want to keep the old man?"

Zhang Ximeng nodded, "Anyone can leave, only Brother Li must stay in the court!"

"That, that's fine!" Li Shanchang suddenly pushed the pen and paper in front of Zhang Ximeng, "Write, write now, just write that Zhang Xiang will do your best to keep me alive! If you write, I'll stay!"
