Zhan Hui's thoughts were interrupted.
Then, he looked at Xu Ben.
"What's wrong? What do you need me to help you with?”
Xu Ben looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them.
Therefore, he said in a low voice,"A few days ago, Tang Duo came to find me. I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure out if it was true or not."
"Why did he look for you?" Zhan Hui was curious.
"Ah, it's like this."
Xu Ben told Zhan Hui the whole story.
After hearing this, Zhan Hui clapped his hands and said happily,"Not bad, Old Xu, you quietly instigated Tang Duo to defect?
Your ability has improved!"
Zhan Hui's eyes lit up.
It was three days later, so he naturally looked at them in a new light.
Old Xu probably couldn't look at him with the same eyes anymore.
Zhan Hui suddenly felt gratified.
This was like an old son who had been teaching him all this time suddenly growing up.
It had been a long time since Zhan Hui had experienced the feeling of an old father.
"No, Old Zhan, what's with that look?”Xu Ben was rather suspicious.
This gaze was too strange.
"It's nothing. Don't worry, what Tang Duo said is not a lie!”
"Why?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Zhan Hui laughed. If he was lying, he shouldn't have gone to your house. Instead, he should have asked you out, understand?"
This was…What was the difference?
Xu Ben was a little confused.
"When he came to your house and said that he wanted to seek refuge with His Highness, it meant that Tang Duo was sincere because your house was not a safe place for him.
If what Tang Duo said is a lie, he will definitely ask you out to a place that he thinks is safe to talk about this, understand?”
Xu Ben understood and stared at Zhan Hui.
This Old Zhan was too good at reading people's minds!
Seeing Xu Ben's expression, Zhan Hui continued,"Old Xu, the most difficult person to deal with now is Tang Duo, who has joined the Chen King.
We can start now. You'd better inform His Highness.
Zhan Hui was very confident that as long as His Highness came to the capital, there would be a hundred responses.
uh... This was indeed the case.
But... I can't fucking contact him!
Xu Ben started to panic, but his expression was still as calm as an old dog.
Xu Ben, think about it quickly. There must be a way to stall for time.
There was…There was…There it was!
Xu Ben suddenly had an idea.
"Old Zhan, think about it. There's no problem with the royal court, but we're not the biggest gang in the capital!”
"You mean the Five Armies Governor's Office? Blue Jade!" Zhan Hui's expression was solemn.
"That's right, it's Lan Yu. Now, Lan Yu is the Crown Prince's uncle, a born prince!
"If we don't get rid of him, it's impossible for us to have a coup," Xu Ben sighed.
Too witty! I'm too smart!
Seeing Zhan Hui's serious expression, Xu Ben couldn't help but praise himself!
"Old Xu, you're right, but there's one thing you're wrong about!”
"What?"
"The biggest gang in the capital is not the Military Governor's Office, but our Chen Wang Gang!”Zhan Hui said firmly!
"No, now is the time to fight for this? Old Zhan, why don't you think of a way!" Xu Ben was speechless.
"Of course, there is a way. Old Xu, we will have to rely on you at this time!
In the capital, only Feng Sheng and the other old generals could compete with Lan Yu.
Now, you can only poach them over!”Zhan Hui patted Xu Ben's shoulder.
Hearing this, Xu Ben was stunned.
This was…Wasn't he shooting himself in the foot?
"No, Old Zhan."
At this moment, in the First Primordial Great Ming World.
Wenying Hall.
Lee Shan Chang was very excited.
He was too envious!
They envied the civil officials of the future generations for being able to control the emperor!
Unlike the current him, who was completely Old Zhu's personal secretary.
They were both scholars, but why were their fates different?
Sigh, if I was born one or two hundred years later, I would have been able to enjoy being a regent!
Lee Shan Chang could only silently envy him in his heart.
Only the officials who lived in the Hongwu Dynasty knew how difficult it was to work for Emperor Zhu.
"Minister Li, what do you think of this Ming Wu Zong?”
" Brother Liu, don't you know that if you don't have a good relationship with a civil servant, how can you remember anything good about him in the history books? Continue reading," Takiyama said with a smile.
At this moment, in the video,
Zhu Xingtang was the late emperor's son and had always treated him as a treasure.
Just like the Ming Wu Sect.
It was just that this Da Ming was even stricter in grooming the Crown Prince.
As long as the conditions allowed, the Crown Prince had to start studying from the age of six.
At the age of ten, he had to go to the cabinet to observe politics. During this period, he was only allowed to watch and was not allowed to raise any opinions.
At the age of thirteen, he had to go to the countryside and start from an official. Within three years, he had to be promoted to a county magistrate.
He was sixteen years old now. If the old emperor was no longer around, he would have to ascend the throne.
If the old emperor was still around, there would be one last lesson.
That was to join the army, which was four years.
At this time, if the old Emperor was still around, the Crown Prince would need to return to the central control, and the Emperor would be able to teach the Crown Prince step by step.
If the previous emperor did not arrive early, the training time would also be shortened.
During the Crown Prince's training period, the chief assistant, deputy commander, and Zong Zheng would be the Crown Prince's teachers.
This was the complete training program for the Great Ming Crown Prince.
At this moment, in the bullet screen…
"Eh, it's indeed strict. This isn't to nurture the Crown Prince, but to nurture an all-rounder!”
"No wonder the second generation of Ming Dynasty has no useless ruler. Each of them more or less has some ability!”
"It all depends on how they nurture the Crown Prince. They teach everything from astronomy to geography. Of course he's outstanding!”
"Really, no matter if it's Big Ming Number One or Big Ming Number Two, learn from them!”
"It's useless to learn these things. The Crown Prince only needs to read the books of the sages to manage the empire well. You don't know anything!"
"It's barking again!"
At this moment, the video began to progress.
When Zhu Xingtang finished the Crown Prince training course, the old Emperor passed away.
Thus, he naturally became the new emperor, and the year was named Yan Ming.
Not long after Zhu Xingtang ascended the throne, the Great Ming Meteorology Department sent a message.
The Little Ice Age predicted by Glory Sect was coming soon.
Zhu Xingtang knew about the Little Ice Age.
Food production decreased, and the weather turned cold.
Hence, Zhu Xingtang held his first meeting.
The Cabinet, Imperial Clan Court, and the Military Department all participated.
At the meeting, after rigorous reasoning and heated discussions.
They discovered that the Little Ice Age did not pose any threat to Da Ming.
The weather in the north was cold, so Ming had rye potatoes.
Moreover, they had not collected taxes for nearly two hundred years. Every family has a surplus of food.
With that, there was nothing to worry about.
However, under the insistence of Hai Rui, the cabinet sent a message to the entire country.
" The Little Ice Age will arrive soon. Take care to protect yourself and keep warm."
After that, Zhu Xingtang officially took over Da Ming.
The first thing he set his eyes on was the granaries in the north.
It was divided into civilian warehouses and military warehouses, which stored food for disaster relief and military use respectively.
Zhu Xingtang first checked the warehouse.
He sent out a large number of censors from the Department of Supervision to all the provinces of the Ming Dynasty to begin the inspection.
The process was not very smooth at the beginning.
This was because the last major investigation had to be traced back to the time when the late emperor had just ascended the throne.
Every emperor would do the same thing a few times.
Once a year.
Even the laziest ones would come back once every four or five years.
Only the previous emperor had only investigated once during his reign.
Hence, all the accounts were piled up in Zhu Xingtang's account.
It would probably take a lot of time to find out.
Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
The accounts reported below had been carefully checked.
In the end, it was only a few people's warehouses that were short of catty and two taels. The problem was not too big.
According to the relevant regulations and the laws of the Ming Dynasty, those who should be compensated should be compensated, and those who should be dismissed should be dismissed.
In fact, he would even get back the things he had lost in recent years.
After checking the civilian warehouse, they went to the military warehouse.
At this moment, the video suddenly changed.
The video was even thoughtfully captioned.
Yang Hong, the commander of the Northern Military Region of Ming Dynasty, was on the phone with the deputy chief of the cabinet of Ming Dynasty.
"The emperor is about to check the military warehouse, what should we do now?”Yang Hong's anxious voice came from the video.
"Don't panic. The weather has been dry recently. It's normal for the warehouse to catch fire."
"This... Will this work?" Yang Hong hesitated.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of the rest. Hai Gangfeng has been admitted to the hospital, so I'm in charge of the cabinet now."
"Alright then!"
The call ended and the video changed again.
At this moment, in the bullet screen…
"Oh my God, is the commander of the border defense colluding with the deputy chief of the cabinet? What are they trying to do!"
"What else can I do? It's just the same old trick. I've done this before. The higher-ups sent people to check the grain, but the grain had long been sold. What should I do?”
"Good heavens, no wonder the history books always record so many fire dragons burning the granaries. This was originally to cover up the crime!”
"Haha, this is an old traditional skill."
"This... How dare they sell all the grain in the warehouse?”
"As long as they can make money, those people won't dare to sell anything!”
At this moment, in the First Primordial Great Ming World.
Wenying Hall.
The civil officials exploded, or perhaps because of the ridicule in the bullet comments, their defenses were completely broken.
"Slander, absolutely slander!"
"Slander, they're slandering us!"
"How could a scholar like me do such a heartless thing? Lord Liu, have you done it before?"
"Of course not. What about you, Lord Zhang?”
"I didn't either."
Lee Shan Chang looked at the civil officials speechlessly.
It was impossible for these people to be young.
However, who among those who were in their fifties or sixties had not worked in the Yuan Dynasty?
To think that they could say it!
Hall of Heaven.
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.
How should he put it? It was someone else's originally exquisite porcelain that was suddenly stained with a drop of blood.
He felt both regretful and gratified.
It turned out that even the powerful Great Ming had darkness beneath it.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang even sent out a bullet screen specifically for Brother Number Two.
Zhu Yuanzhang: Haha, Brother Number Two, it seems that every family has their own difficulties.
At this moment, Number Two was transforming the Great Ming World.
Prince Chen's Mansion.
Zhu Yuanzhang saw this bullet screen at a glance.
"Haha, Biao Er, Chen Er, look at this old guy, he still doesn't admit defeat, haha!"
Number two, Zhu Yuanzhang, chuckled.
"Imperial Father, it's not easy for that person either. Why don't you give in to him a little?”Zhu Biao advised tactfully.
"Give way? How was that possible? This is everyone's first time being an emperor. Why should we give in to him? Let's see how we'll fight him!”
Thus, a fresh bullet screen was quickly released.
Second Zhu Yuanzhang: " Brother Number One is right. It's just that there are only a few words that are difficult to read in this scripture. As for yours, the entire scripture is filled with rare words. I can't understand it. Can you understand it, little brother?"
Zhu Yuanzhang:
Primitive Great Ming World Number One.
Hall of Heaven.
"I'm so angry!" Zhu Yuanzhang slammed the table heavily.
"I told you not to tease her. You're right!”Empress Ma gloated.
Number One Zhu Yuanzhang was unable to refute.
This was…This was indeed his fault, but why was he so aggrieved?
It's all Fourth Brother's fault. He made me lose face over there!
"Liu He, go and bring Fourth Brother over!”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At this moment, in the video…
Hence, Zhu Xingtang began to inspect the military warehouse.
However, every time they sent people to a place, the local granary would be burned down.
The fire was so strong that even the 'food' was burned into powder.
Even a fool could tell that something was wrong.
Zhu Xingtang felt that he might have to investigate it personally.
However, before he left, he still went to see the sick chief assistant.
Ming Royal Hospital.
"Your Majesty, the state affairs are of utmost importance. This old minister's illness will recover in a few days. There's no need to worry."
Hai Rui's face was pale and his words were unclear.
However, he still advised Zhu Xingtang to put his mind on state affairs and not visit him too much.
"The chief assistant assisted three generations of my Zhu family. It's only right for zhen to come and see you."
" Thank you, Your Majesty. I'm old, but I'm full of problems," Hai Rui said as he sat up.
"If Your Majesty has something to say, just say it. You should have something to do."
Zhu Xingtang smiled bitterly. He had made it too obvious.
Although Hai Rui was upright, they had been officials for three dynasties. Their foresight was not something that ordinary people could compare to.
"To tell you the truth, I…"
Zhu Xingtang told Hai Rui everything he had done recently, including the fire dragon burning the military warehouse.
Hearing this, Hai Rui's expression darkened and he started coughing.
"Your Majesty, at this moment, you must not leave the capital. Please!"
Before he could finish speaking, Hai Rui fainted from anger.
Zhu Xingtang hurriedly called the imperial physician over to treat him.
An hour later.
"Your Majesty, Hai Shoufu is just anxious. He will be fine after a rest."
Hearing this, Zhu Xingtang was finally relieved.
At the same time, he was also blaming himself.
He knew that Hai Shoufu was not in good health, but he still bothered him with these troublesome things.
Forget it, let Hai Shoufu recuperate.
Zhu Xingtang actually understood.
If there wasn't any collusion between the local government and the central government behind Fire Dragon Burning Barn…
That was strange!
As for who it was.
He could only guess one person at the moment, Yang Hong, the commander of the Northern Military Region.
The military warehouse was usually guarded by the army. The actual deployment required the signature of the emperor, the deputy commander-in-chief, and the chief of the cabinet.
All the military warehouses in the north were on fire.
Only Yang Hong had the ability to do this.
Moreover, there must be someone behind Yang Hong.
As for what Hai Shoufu said about not leaving the capital.
However, he had already sent out many people. The Inspection Division was almost empty.
The result was still the same. Either they couldn't find it, or the fire dragon burned the warehouse, and the dead couldn't testify.
Therefore, he had to go this time!
The next day, Zhu Xingtang informed the cabinet that he was going to personally inspect the military warehouse.
In the end, the cabinet strongly opposed it.
However, his voice was quickly suppressed by Deputy Commander-in-Chief Qi Jiguang.
The military must obey the emperor's orders unconditionally!
This was a rule that had been set since the time of Glory Sect!
The cabinet was against it, and the military supported it. The Imperial Clan Court's vote was crucial.
Thus, Zhu Xingtang and Zong Zheng Zhu Xingcheng discussed for a long time before the Imperial Clan Court finally voted for Zhu Xingtang.
The final motion was passed.
The various departments began to prepare for the emperor's ceremonial trip and various regulations.
At this moment, the video screen turned again.
Yang Hong suddenly received a call.
"Milord, how is the situation?"
"The Emperor going personally is a foregone conclusion. It can't be changed."
Hearing this, Yang Hong's expression immediately turned solemn.
"Sir, is there no other way?”
"Yes!"
Yang Hong seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw and quickly asked,"Please tell me, my lord!"
He couldn't help but be anxious!
This matter concerned his life and family, so he could not be careless at all.
"Hey, do you have any connections in the Southwest and Northwest military regions?”
"Yes! The commanders of these two military regions were all grasshoppers on this line! Even many officers from these two military regions were involved. Yang Hong's eyes lit up.
"What about Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia?"
" No one can have this." Yang Hong smiled bitterly.
These two places were different from the others.
This was Da Ming's main development area, and all parties were staring at it.
If he wanted to do something small, the Emperor did not even need to do anything.
The rest of you will take care of you.
"That's enough. Listen to me. This method is a little risky, but if it succeeds, I'll give it to you.
"Not only can we avoid this disaster, but it's also possible for us to be promoted." The voice on the other end of the phone was very tempting.
