Yingtian Prefecture, Forbidden City.
Zhu Yunhao asked Fu Youde to wait outside.
"Duke Ying, wait for my news."
" Mm…" Fu Youde cupped his fists at Zhu Yunhao gratefully.
"Fu Youde will never forget the love of his great-grandson!”
"Haha, there's no need to be so serious.”Zhu Yunhao laughed heartily.
He then waved his sleeves and carried Fu Youde's death-exemption ticket into the palace.
Fu Youde was also surrounded by Embroidered Uniform Guards.
It was as if he would attack at any moment and hack him to death.
Fu Youde responded to these Embroidered Uniform Guards with contempt.
He then looked at Zhu Yunchen, whose figure was getting smaller and smaller, and sighed with emotion.
"This old man might be able to live for another four hours.”
Within the palace.
Yan Song concealed his eyes and ears and appeared inside.
At this moment, he was with Liu Jin and Qian Ning.
Initially, the three of them had nothing to say, but Liu Jin remembered something.
"Oh right, Grand Sun mentioned it in Lord Hong Wu's Palace of Heavenly Purity.”
"He said he was going to send Zhu Yunwen's fiancée there.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Qian Ning immediately jumped up.
"What? There's such a thing?"
Yan Song laughed like an honest old man.
"Perhaps Taisun only mentioned it to anger His Majesty.”
"Hasn't Grand Sun never mentioned it again?”
"Perhaps." Liu Jin nodded and said,"The fiancée that Lord Hongwu had chosen for Zhu Yunwen. Her father is a subordinate of the Ministry of Rites."”
"Right now, I can only manage the palace.”
"Leave this matter to me!" Qian Ning said immediately.”
Qian Ning had forgotten to clean up Zhu Yunwen's mother's house. This was a chance to make up for his mistake!
Yan Song only smiled and said nothing, even though he was the Minister of Rites.
At this moment.
Zhu Yunhao walked over with a few Jinyiwei.
"Yan Song, why are you here?”
"I think that Taisun should have a plan for the next step and must have something to instruct him."”
"Smart person." Zhu Yunhao praised.
As expected of the treacherous official Yan Song.
As he spoke, Zhu Yunhao looked at Liu Jin.
"How is the situation in the harem?"
Liu Jin immediately replied,"Reporting to Taisun, there is nothing unusual."”
"Lord Hongwu is very strict with the management of the harem.”
"They thought that Lord Hongwu was going to kill again. Concubines with family backgrounds don't even dare to ask about things outside the palace.”
"I'm afraid that this will become a reason for Lord Hongwu to punish the family.”
"That's good," Zhu Yunhao said with a smile.”
"Then, how is my Imperial Grandfather's health now?”
"Reporting to Taisun," Liu Jin replied humbly,"I've just gone to see him an hour ago."”
"Lord Hongwu should still be asleep.”
"Are you asleep?" Zhu Yunhao thought for a moment and said,"Then I'll go later."”
"There are some things that I need to tell you now.”
Immediately, Yan Song, Liu Jin, and Qian Ning stood up and listened to his orders.
"I will disappear for a few days and stay in this palace."”
"And these few days!"
"It's time for you to show your abilities!”
As he spoke, Zhu Yunhao's tone was faintly brewing with killing intent.
This was the time when they started discussing the treasury notes. They surrounded the palace and the outside world, and the civil officials and meritorious officials.
A great plan that used the hearts of the people as a guide and turned into a general trend!
Success was a big step for him to seize Old Zhu's power!
"Qian Ning."
Qian Ning took half a step forward and bowed.”
Zhu Yunhao stared at him and said,"The Jinyiwei is in control, but the Imperial City's military forces are not limited to the Jinyiwei."”
"The Imperial City's personal guards are the main force. The generals inside, you should gradually organize them according to what the Embroidered Uniform Guards have.”
"Start from the easy ones and prove their loyalty to my Imperial Grandfather.”
"Also, remember, there are some key positions that you must pay attention to.”
"After that, show it to me and wait for my arrangements!”
The imperial guards were the emperor's personal guards and guards. They were personally led by the emperor, making a total of twelve guards.
The real decline of the Twelve Guards began after the Tumu Castle Incident.
From then on, the Emperor had 12 personal guards, and only the Brocade Guard was under the Emperor's command. The rest were controlled by the civil officials.
However, the Emperor's personal army of the Hong Martial Dynasty was very strong!
It was also the number one soldier that Zhu Yunhao needed to control.
At the very least, they could be mobilized without any obstacles.
To put it bluntly, it was to eliminate dissidents and win over trusted aides.
He could place his own people in the vacant positions left behind by Zhu Yunhao.
For example, transferring people from the Embroidered Uniform Guards!
No one knew that Zhu Yunhao had placed Old Zhu under house arrest.
Qian Ning was now the Commander of the Brocade Guard, so he naturally represented Old Zhu.
Naturally, Old Zhu was the one who wanted him to verify these people.
Obeying Qian Ning meant obeying Old Zhu.
He was even more obedient to the current Zhu Yunhao!
His plan had started with Old Zhu's big purge.
Everything could happen naturally!
It wouldn't be too difficult before Zhu Yunhao's house arrest of Old Zhu was exposed.
All of this had to be done in the next few days!
Later, Zhu Yunhao might transfer loyal people from the Jinyiwei to take up the post, whether it was a promotion or a promotion.
And if these people in their original positions were guilty, they would be thrown into prison to be beheaded.
If he was innocent and there was no other way.
The former commander of the Royal Guards, Jiang Wei, was beheaded.
From the beginning of the Wenhua Hall to the following events, Zhu Yunhao's plan was inseparable from each other.
If it wasn't because of the Imperial City's personal army, but because of other necessities, then he could take advantage of the situation to deal with it.
For example, if a general or civil official committed a crime and a general was related to him, he could be implicated.
Other than the Emperor's personal army, there was also the capital army that protected the Ying Tian Manor.
The capital army of the Hongwu Dynasty had forty-eight guards, about two hundred thousand people.
This would be a little troublesome.
This was because it involved the five armies and the Bureau of Military Personnel.
The five armies are the front, back, left, right and middle.
To put it simply, the Ministry of War could mobilize troops but not command them, and the five military governors could command troops but not mobilize them.
If there was a war, the Ministry of War would mobilize troops according to the decree, and the five military governors would send out generals according to the decree.
For example, Xu Huizu, who was in charge of the central military governor's office, was Zhu Yunhao's target after Fu Youde!
Fortunately, the Ministry of War was a civil official.
The civil officials of the Hong Martial Dynasty were not the powerful civil officials behind the Ming Dynasty.
