"Kid Fang, what was the plan that you mentioned last time?”
Although he had drunk quite a bit, Zhu Yuanzhang was still the emperor after all. His willpower was extremely firm. He took the initiative to change the topic to the plan that Fang Yunfei had mentioned a few days ago.
Zhu Biao immediately perked up.
He already knew that the 'Goryeo Mutiny' was completely speculated by Fang Yunfei, and he was very impressed.
A sixteen-year-old youth could accurately judge the situation thousands of miles away with just a little bit of information.
This was a genius in the history books!
From the small, we can see the big.
Fang Yunfei's plan to bring peace to the world was definitely extraordinary.
Blue Jade, who had already climbed onto the table, also tried her best to straighten her ears.
This was related to the life of their Old Lan family. He had no choice but to be concerned!
"Good! Since you said so, then I'll tell you!”
Fang Yunfei was also a little drunk. Seeing that the three of them were all ears, he could not help but slap the table and shout.
"Let me ask you, why did His Majesty kill the Prime Minister, Hu Weiyong?”
Fang Yunfei asked the three of them.
"This…Isn't this simple? Embezzlement, bribery, and taking advantage of the people! It was clearly written on the Imperial Board in the city.”
Lan Yu said.
"Hahaha…aren't you being too shallow? "You're too shallow, aren't you?" Fang Yun Fei pointed at Lan Yu and laughed,
"If it was so simple, why did His Majesty endure Hu Weiyong for seven years? Why hadn't the position of prime minister been reinstated after killing Hu Weiyong?”
"Uh…then what did benefactor say it was because of?”
Crown Prince Zhu Biao asked.
Fang Yunfei stood up shakily and pointed in the direction of the Imperial City."
"Isn't this simple? Because the position of Prime Minister is a threat to the Great Ming Empire. The Emperor was not trying to deal with Hu Weiyong, but the Prime Minister that Hu Weiyong represented!”
Boom!
Fang Yunfei's words echoed in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind like a great bell.
He immediately sobered up!
Everyone thought that they had tolerated Hu Weiyong for seven years before killing him because they were afraid of Hu Weiyong's power.
In fact, in the eyes of the emperor, Hu Weiyong was just a minor illness. He could turn him into ashes with a snap of his fingers.
What he really wanted to deal with was actually the Prime Minister that had been passed down for thousands of years behind Hu Weiyong!
It was precisely because of this that he had endured Hu Weiyong for seven years and then decisively uprooted them.
He thought that other than Liu Bowen and Li Shan Chang, who had followed him for many years, no one would understand.
He didn't expect that Fang brat would see through him with a single glance.
The so-called Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick was just so, right?
Zhu Biao was also shocked. He instantly understood Zhu Yuanzhang's motive.
"What a pity! Your Majesty is wrong!"
"And very wrong!"
However, Fang Yunfei's next words immediately made Zhu Yuanzhang's expression change.
He had abolished the prime minister's power through Hu Weiyong's case. Even if it was not flawless, it could be considered exquisite.
Why did Fang brat say that his plan was full of flaws?
"Brat Fang, where did His Majesty go wrong?”
Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but ask.
"Old Zhu, let me ask you, since ancient times, what have emperors been most afraid of?”
Fang Yunfei was already excited. He pulled a chair and sat in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Of course it's this subordinate who rebelled?"
Zhu Yuanzhang answered without hesitation.
"That's right."
Fang Yunfei nodded with certainty.
From Zu Long to Pu. In the history of China, 494 people had ascended the throne.
More than one-third of them were killed by his subordinates.
In addition, more than half of the emperors who were deposed and placed under house arrest by their officials did not have a good ending.
It could be said that the position of emperor was a high-risk occupation!
High risk!
High returns!
"But if I want to rebel, I must have the corresponding power.”
"If he doesn't have the power, what right does he have to cause trouble?”
"It was because he was worried that the Prime Minister would have too much power in his hands that the Emperor did not re-establish the position of Prime Minister after killing Hu Weiyong.”
"I'd rather suffer and be tired than lose power.”
Fang Yunfei continued to explain.
"But doesn't this prove that His Majesty's decision is correct? Benefactor, why did you say that His Majesty was wrong?”
Zhu Biao asked in confusion.
"That's right! Besides, what does this have to do with us generals?”
Lan Yu scratched her head.
As generals, they couldn't stand Hu Weiyong.
Back when he and the others were fighting with their boss, Hu Weiyong was still hiding somewhere!
In the end, the moment he became the prime minister, he ran to them, His Majesty's old friends, and shouted at them!
Was he even worthy?
This Hu Weiyong was killed well!
" Hahahaha…" Fang Yun Fei pointed at Lan Yu and laughed heartily.
"That's a big deal!"
"Since ancient times, the power of this country has been divided into 'imperial power',' prime minister power', and 'military power'.”
"The Emperor is naturally the representative of the imperial power.”
"Hu Weiyong represents the power of the prime minister, and Old Zhu, you generals represent the power of the army.”
"However, compared to the power of the prime minister, you saber-wielding people are the greatest threat to the imperial power.”
Fang Yunfei pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang and Lan Yu.
"No…I don't think so? We…We are just a bunch of rough…rough people. How could he win against those pen wielders?”
Lan Yu stuttered.
However, he was not drunk, but scared!
"Only with a gun can you be a grass head! No matter how powerful the prime minister was, without the support of military power, he would not be able to achieve anything.”
"But on the other hand, if the military power is too strong, it can completely get rid of the prime minister and directly surpass the imperial power.”
"Even-"
"Turn yourself into the imperial power!"
Bada!
The wine cup in Lan Yu's hand fell to the ground.
He was now completely shocked awake by Fang Yun Fei's words!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao also looked at Fang Yunfei seriously.
Fang Yunfei was very satisfied with his reaction. He then said to the three of them,
"Therefore, the danger that generals pose to the country has always been much more serious than that of civil officials.”
"The reason why the current Emperor would rather abolish the Prime Minister than use force.”
"Other than the past friendship between brothers, another main reason is that I'm worried that the generals will overreact and cause chaos in the world!”
"In addition, His Majesty thinks that he can suppress you.”
"But if one day you guys threaten His Majesty's imperial power, do you think His Majesty will make a move on you?”
Hiss…
These words made Zhu Biao and Lan Yu gasp.
Zhu Biao had been kind since he was a child. He did not want to see his uncles, who had watched him grow up, being killed by his father.
Lan Yu was completely frightened!
Even if he didn't like to use his brain, he could understand the stakes.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded repeatedly.
Not to mention the rebellion of Chen Qiao and the rebellion of the military governors, which of the imperial relatives and eunuchs who dared to depose the emperor in history did not dare to act after receiving the support of the military?
Without soldiers, they were nothing!
"Then you mean to say that you can deal with all the generals?”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked calmly.
In his mind, there seemed to be no other solution other than killing the general.
"Kill all the generals?"
"Have you forgotten the shame of Jingkang in the Northern Song Dynasty?”
