The Current Situation and the New Book of the Emperor's Mind
Inside the Universal Palace.
The entire court was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Once the four great institutions that Zhu Fan mentioned were established, it would practically make eighty percent of the officials figureheads.
Especially the Second East and West Plants and the Embroidered Uniform Guards, they could not be responsible to anyone and could act first before reporting.
Even the six ministers and the princes couldn't have such authority.
No one wanted him to set it up, but now it was the eldest grandson of the emperor who advised Taizu.
If Taizu agreed, they would be powerless to stop him.
However, there was no need to worry about this. Even if the four major organizations were established, they would not be controlled by a sixteen-year-old child.
Even if Zhu Fan was the eldest grandson of the emperor.
This power was too great, and it had already threatened everyone's interests.
The current Emperor Taizu was well versed in the art of politics and was able to balance the various powers of the imperial court.
Therefore, it would be good enough if one of the four organizations could fall into Zhu Fan's hands.
As for the other institutions, they would definitely be split up by Taizu and handed over to other princes or ministers to manage.
Of course, they believed that it was impossible for the Great Ancestor to establish such a powerful organization.
Now that the various factions of the imperial court were balanced, there was no room for other factions.
At this moment, Human Emperor Taizu slowly stood up from his dragon throne. Everyone's hearts trembled and they all lowered their heads.
Every time Taizu stood up, it was the moment of the final decision!
No one could change that.
"Preposterous. At such a young age, you already know how to play politics. Once the four great institutions you mentioned are established, where will the three divisions and six ministries and the Supreme Court be placed? This is child's play!"
At this moment, Human Emperor Taizu's eyes were cold and his majesty swept down.
When the emperor was angry, millions of people died!
Everyone present except Zhu Fan knelt down.
They prostrated themselves on the ground and shouted,"Your Majesty, please calm down!"
Although these officials looked terrified, they were sneering in their hearts.
They knew that Taizu would definitely not agree to the establishment of the four major organizations. Otherwise, there would be a huge problem.
At that time, not only would the martial world be in chaos, but it would also cause instability in the court.
Zhu Fan stood on the spot and frowned slightly.
His train of thought was absolutely correct.
"Imperial Father, Fan 'er was just muddle-headed for a moment.”Prince Wan spoke up to plead for Zhu Fan.
Zhu Fan's imperial uncles were all famous figures.
Almost all of them were emperors of various eras in the Ming Dynasty's history, but now they were all the sons of Taizu.
"Prince Wan is right. His Highness Zhangsun is young and doesn't understand the government. Your Majesty must not calm down!”Grand Preceptor Zhang Juzheng opened his mouth. He knelt on the ground and asked Taizu to calm down.
Grand Preceptor Zhang Juzheng was Prince Wan's man.
Soon after, several ministers and princes present also spoke up, asking Taizu to calm down.
Through this incident, Su Fan had a rough idea of the situation in the imperial court.
As long as a prince spoke, an official would respond.
Just like Zhang Juzheng and Prince Wang.
"Please calm down, Your Majesty!" Everyone cupped their hands again, as if they were pleading for Zhu Fan.
However, in reality, he wanted Zhu Fan to fall out of favor.
"Alright, alright, get up."
Taizu looked at everyone and said impatiently.
Just as everyone was waiting for Taizu to sit back on the dragon throne, Taizu looked at Zhu Fan again and said.
"Put aside the matter of you establishing the four major organizations for the time being. You have too much power. However, considering that you are protecting the prestige of the Ming Emperor, and that the royal family and the civil and military ministers have pleaded for you, I will allow you to establish the East and West Factories. However, you only have the authority to collect Jianghu intelligence and cannot exceed your authority. As for the Six Fan School and the Jinyiwei, we will discuss it later!”
The officials were stunned.
We didn't mean that.
When Zhu Fan heard this, he was delighted.
He knew that the Ancestral Human Emperor would not easily reject his suggestion.
Controlling the four organizations was equivalent to holding all the power in his hands.
It was impossible for Human Emperor Taizu not to care.
When the princes and ministers in the court heard this, their expressions changed drastically.
Allowing the eldest grandson to build the Second East and West Plants?
Everyone was confused. They did not know what the Great Ancestor wanted to do.
However, what made them feel at ease was that the establishment of the Second East and West Depots only allowed them to collect information about the martial world.
This did not affect them at all.
He didn't have the terrifying power to act first and report later.
For a moment, both the ministers and the prince felt slightly relieved.
Some ministers even felt that this was just Taizu's love for the eldest grandson of the emperor.
As for the Second East and West Plants, even if they were established, what power would they have?
However, Grand Preceptor Zhang Juzheng and Minister of Official Personnel Affairs Yan Song frowned slightly, thinking that things wouldn't be so simple.
However, they could not say anything. No one could change the decision of the Great Ancestor.
"Thank you Imperial Grandfather, your grandson understands!”
At this moment, Zhu Fan hurriedly thanked him.
From Taizu's reaction just now, he already knew clearly.
In fact, his Imperial Grandfather wanted to establish these four institutions, but the various forces in the court were checking each other. They could not directly establish other institutions with heavy authority.
The reason why Taizu was angry just now was to let him see the situation in the imperial court clearly.
It could be said that all of this was within the grasp of the current Human Emperor.
This was the Emperor's heart technique, not leaving any traces!
