Huang Zicheng said to Zhu Yunwen with certainty.
Zhu Yunwen also said to Huang Zicheng,
"Why do you say that, Master Huang?"
"Those are my imperial uncles. Moreover, they share the same bloodline as me.”
"How could it possibly harm Great Ming's empire?”
Hearing Zhu Yunwen's words, Zhu Yuanzhang stood there, a trace of warmth rising in his heart.
He didn't expect his grandson to be able to see things clearly.
It also didn't waste his efforts, helping him get rid of Lan Yu and the other proud soldiers and generals, as well as those nobles who might not be able to get rid of them.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes turned cold again.
This Huang Zicheng was really scheming. His grandson was so outstanding, but he actually wanted to bewitch his grandson to kill each other.
Just as Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about it.
Huang Zicheng said,
"Your Majesty, your words are wrong."
"Although all the vassal kings and His Majesty are of the same bloodline as Taizu.”
"However, the human heart is beyond one's stomach, so we have to be wary.”
"Your Majesty, do you remember that I once told you about the Rebellion of the Seven Princes of Han?”
At this point, a smug look appeared on Corey's face.
The other officials also revealed envious expressions.
The benefits of being Tian Zi's teacher were that the pavilion closest to the water would get the moon first.
He had been with His Majesty since a long time ago.
He casually said whatever he wanted to say.
Even if he said something like cutting off the vassals, it would not cause the Emperor to be dissatisfied.
Just this alone was enough to make everyone unable to catch up.
Corey obviously knew about this as well, which was why he had a smug look on his face.
Sure enough, after Corey said that.
Zhu Yunwen's face did not reveal any uneasiness.
He even said humbly to Huang Zicheng,"
"I dare not forget Master's teachings for even a moment.”
It was just like how Huang Zicheng had taught him before he was the emperor.
This caused the eyes of the officials in the court to burn with jealousy.
It also caused Zhu Yuanzhang to curse in a place where no one could hear him.
He scolded Huang Zicheng for not having the appearance of a minister and actually daring to take advantage of his seniority to teach the current emperor a lesson in the imperial court.
He scolded Zhu Yunwen for not having the appearance of a ruler. The dignified ruler of a country was actually like a child, obeying others.
However, all of this was due to his Incompetent Rage.
Zhu Yunwen couldn't hear it, Huang Zicheng couldn't hear it, and the civil and military officials couldn't hear it either.
After Zhu Yunwen said this, she immediately said,
"When Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he granted the Liu family the title of King.”
"I thought I could protect the Imperial Court, but I didn't expect these dukes to grow stronger day by day.”
"In the end, it directly threatened the rule of the Imperial Court and almost caused the Great Han Dynasty to fall apart.”
"In the end, it took a lot of effort to quell the rebellion and return some power to the Imperial Court.”
Huang Zicheng nodded with satisfaction when he heard Zhu Yunwen's words.
He said to Zhu Yunwen,
"Your Majesty is right."
"These were all taught to Your Majesty by me back then.”
"At this moment, my situation is very similar to that of the Great Han.”
"If we don't take advantage of the fact that the kings haven't become powerful yet to cut down the vassals.”
"Do we have to wait until they are too big to fall before we cut them off?”
Huang Zicheng said with certainty.
Zhu Yunwen nodded and agreed with Huang Zicheng.
Huang Zicheng also struck while the iron was hot and said,
"Your Majesty, let's talk about the Great Tang.”
"Back then, the Great Tang established provincial governors and military towns.”
"I also want to help the Great Tang guard the border.”
"But what happened in the end?"
"During the An Lushan Rebellion, the military governor An Lushan led his troops to rebel, causing the Tang Empire to never recover.”
"Then, all the military governors in the world followed suit.”
"Each and every one of you shall become your own king."
"They've carved up the entire Great Tang.”
"In the end, the Great Tang perished at the hands of Regional Governor Zhu Wen.”
"Your Majesty, the lessons of the past are not far away!”
Huang Zicheng said bitterly.
After saying that, Huang Zicheng continued,
"During the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, was dressed in a royal robe.”
"We learned from Tang Shi's mistakes and removed all the military governors.”
"Even all the princes are imprisoned in the capital.”
"In the Song Dynasty, no prince rebelled.”
"Your Majesty, isn't this a living example?”
Huang Zicheng said incessantly.
When some of the civil officials heard Huang Zicheng's words, they finally understood.
It turned out that this Lord Huang did not want his family to be the only one to dominate. In the end, he still thought of people of the same lineage as him.
Therefore, they all echoed,
"Your Majesty, Lord Huang is right.”
"Lord Huang is indeed concerned about the country.”
"Your Majesty, this subject asks Your Majesty to accept Lord Huang's kind words.”
"Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty. Lord Huang is an experienced ruler of the country. He won't be wrong.”
These people said one after another.
He didn't care about the ashen faces of the nobles and generals.
Corey's words were a slap to their faces.
What was the matter of the military governors being independent and the vassals being powerful?
At the end of the day, he was just worried that the people who led the troops to fight with their lives on the line would have second thoughts.
It was just that the emperor and courtiers were different now.
Now that the new ruler had ascended the throne, he naturally had his eyes on those civil officials.
These generals would soon be sidelined.
The generals and nobles felt sorrowful.
They also remembered the time when Zhu Yuanzhang was in power.
How comfortable were the days of these generals?
Unfortunately, the previous emperor had already passed away.
The current emperor was an emperor who had been influenced by Confucianism.
Civil officials, generals, and dignitaries all had their own thoughts.
Little did he know that in a place he couldn't see, Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
This was the real truth!
He didn't expect Corey to twist the truth to such an extent.
Only now did Zhu Yuanzhang finally see the true face of this person.
Everything Huang Zicheng said and did was not really for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.
It was for the sake of their status as scholars.
Who didn't know that in the Song Dynasty, there was the name of a doctor who didn't have a superior punishment?
In the entire Great Song, the status of scholars was unparalleled. They could even point at the emperor's nose and scold him without worrying about any consequences.
But those generals were different.
These generals were easily killed, and their crimes were casually arranged.
Even a provincial governor would only dare to be submissive when he saw a civil official who was much lower than him.
The status of scholars was indeed high.
However, how could he not know what the outcome of the Great Song would be?
Internal warfare was an expert, external warfare was an amateur.
Facing the invasion of the nomads in the north, they were forced to retreat.
Even the Western Xia, which only had one province, could demand year coins from the Great Song.
What was the use of such a dynasty? It would only impose all the suffering on the people.
It even directly led to the poverty of his Zhu family.
When the Mongolians entered the Central Plains, their ancestors did not even have a name.
Wasn't he also called Chongba when he was young?
Was this the world that these scholars wanted?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.
After the country that he had fought so hard for was passed to Zhu Yunwen.
He did not expect to be bewitched by these civil officials to this extent.
He looked at Huang Zicheng, who was standing there, seemingly unperturbed, but there was a smug look in his eyes.
Zhu Yuanzhang was even more furious.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't really show it.
Because when he was teaching Zhu Yunwen, he had already told this child about the pros and cons.
He told Zhu Yunwen what it was to be a ruler.
He also told Zhu Yunwen the reason why he did this.
This child shouldn't be too confused.
However, what Zhu Yuanzhang never expected was his grandson's next move.
Zhu Yuanzhang was dumbfounded.
Zhu Yunwen slowly nodded and said,
"What Master Huang said is true, I understand.”
Everyone was shocked.
Even the civil officials who had spoken to Zhu Yunwen were stunned.
He didn't expect the emperor to agree to their suggestion so easily.!
Meanwhile, Zhu Yuanzhang stood still. For a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang even felt a little helpless.
