When the queen came to the military camp, naturally no one would stop her.
To put it bluntly, this is still a family matter, and they can just obey orders and there is no need to get involved.
"What do you want to do?"
Queen Zhang came over and asked very directly, "Do you really want to be Li Shimin?"
"Then the prince must be the target."
Li Yunze, who was smiling, sat down at the side and said, "I'm just following grandpa's last edict."
"Stop talking to me about this." Queen Zhang certainly didn't believe it. "You won't tell the truth to me either. Are you crazy?"
Li Yunze responded sternly, "The emperor trusts the civil servants too much, which is very dangerous for the Ming Dynasty."
Empress Zhang became increasingly puzzled, "What's wrong with the civil servants? Bachelor Yang and the others are all very good people."
"Of course there are good people in the civil service." Li Yunze nodded, "But they wanted too much, and the result was that everything was ruined, but the royal family took the blame."
Regarding these remarks, Queen Zhang was noncommittal, "Don't talk about these big principles, just say what you want!"
"The military power must be controlled by me." Li Yunze also became sincere in his words. "There is nothing to say about this. This is what the old man means. If you agree, I will naturally be a good prince. If you don't agree...then I can only ask your Majesty. Became Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty."
After hearing such remarks, Queen Zhang did not get angry. She just nodded, "I understand."
As the daughter-in-law of the royal family, she naturally knows that when the Tian family is fighting for power, she will definitely not care about anything.
Any talk of family affection at this time is just a joke.
The only thing she can do is to take the conditions back and see how Zhu Gaochi chooses.
"You want me to be Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty?" In the imperial study room, Zhu Gaochi pointed at his nose, "He really dares to say that!"
"The words have been brought, I don't care about the rest." Empress Zhang glanced at the many civil servants in the imperial study, then looked at the empty space left by the removed sand table, shook her head helplessly and left.
That's right, these civil servants are really quick to act.
What civil servants dislike most is an emperor who is on his way, and what he likes most is an emperor who governs from an arched position.
Because the emperor will not listen to them immediately, and the generals will ride on their heads to dominate.
An emperor who rules from the top down is the best, because he is obedient and decentralizes power. Not only can he have great power, but he can also be remembered in history. If he has to control the military with civility, it will be complete.
They even made up a random rule of the Three Emperors. It was obviously a cruel era of competition between you and me, but it was shaped into a utopia.
I originally thought that the lie would become true after being told for two thousand years, but I didn't expect that everything would be exposed as soon as the archeology came out.
As soon as the news of Zhu Di's death came back, which overwhelmed the civil servants, they secretly encouraged Zhu Gaochi to remove the sand table from the imperial study.
It’s really an eyesore!
"Dear gentlemen." The panting Zhu Gaochi sat on the dragon chair and looked around at the many civil servants. "Tell me what to do."
"It's better to arrest all the generals' relatives and let them..."
Even before Dasheng finished speaking, everyone around him was staring at him like a fool.
Zhu Gaochi was also very angry, "It's better to arrest all the family members of that brat. Come and arrest me first."
This is really embarrassing.
On both sides are the emperor and the prince, and the civil servants and generals.
Under this status, there are many things that cannot be done.
In the end, Yang Shiqi came up with a solution that was barely reasonable: "The only way to suppress it is with righteousness. You can send famous officials, village elders, and university students to the military to persuade."
Zhu Gaochi was not very optimistic, "If he could listen to his advice, the queen's trip wouldn't have been in vain."
"Everyone in the world has said it." Yang Shiqi stroked his beard and smiled, "If you don't listen, you will be the target of public criticism."
"He has the old man's edict in his hand. When the time comes, he will take out the edict. Why should he criticize him?"
Zhu Gaochi was not very interested in this method, but he had experienced the Jingnan War.
I know very well in my heart that Li Yunze and Zhu Di both have the same character. As long as they hold military power in their hands, anything they say is nonsense!
After thinking for a while, Yang Shiqi saluted again, "Your Majesty, you may grant the prince the right to supervise the country."
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.
"How can this be so?" Someone immediately couldn't help but retort, "If you already have the power of the military, and if you have the power of supervising the country, who is your majesty?"
The power of the state, government and military is in one hand. This is the power that only an emperor can have.
"You have misunderstood." Yang Shiqi sighed, "What I mean is that the prince's power to supervise the country is exchanged for military power."
The people in the royal study are basically human beings, and they know the elegant meaning of what they say.
The military power is in hand, and you can't move it even if you want to.
But the power to supervise the country, to put it mildly, can be removed at any time as long as the military power is taken back. Even if it’s for the sake of face and reputation, it can only be replaced after a year and a half.
This is a good idea, the only question is whether it will be fooled.
"Hahahaha~~~"
While everyone was racking their brains, thinking about how to take back military power from Li Yunze, a burst of laughter came from the back of the queue.
The ministers were surprised and turned their heads to look over.
But it was a young censor who was leaning forward and back, stamping his feet and laughing with tears streaming down his face.
Yang Pu, who was promoted to the imperial censor of Zuodu, was his standard supervisor: "Yu Qian, why did you lose your manners before you?"
The young man's name is Yu Qian... not Uncle Qian.
A native of Qiantang, he was a Jinshi in the Imperial High School in the 19th year of Yongle's reign, and is now the censor of the Inspectorate.
Logically speaking, a newbie like him is not qualified to stand here.
It was purely because Yang Pu felt that this person was a man of talent because he dared to speak and act, and his ancestors were from a famous family, so he brought him here to see the world.
I never expected that this boy would dare to disobey you!
"Don't blame me, General Xian." Yu Qian smiled, his face flushed, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "I just heard some strange stories and couldn't bear it anymore."
Yang Pu darkened his face and said, "Shut up!"
Over there, Zhu Gaochi shouted, "Who is it? Come over and talk."
He did treat civil servants favorably, but if Zhu Yuanzhang were here, such behavior would only result in a beating.
Yu Qian quickly stepped forward and saluted, "My lord, Yu Qian, the censor of the city patrol."
"Why are you laughing?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I just laughed because I saw the ministers racking their brains to think of ways to deal with the prince."
Before Zhu Gaochi could speak, Yu Qian had already raised his head, "The prince is the prince of the Ming Dynasty! The soldiers and horses are also the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty! Today, the officials of the Ming Dynasty are actually here discussing how to deal with their own prince and how to deal with their own soldiers and horses. Isn't it impossible? laugh?"
Everyone yelled and yelled, and Yang Pu even stomped his feet angrily, "Shut up!"
If he could just obey and shut up, then he wouldn't be Yu Qian.
"Your Majesty." The fearless Yu Qian stepped forward, stared directly at Zhu Gaochi and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want Yi Chu?"
"How is that possible?" Zhu Gaochi responded subconsciously, "I have never had such an idea."
"Your Majesty." Yu Qian's voice gradually became louder. "Your Majesty, are you going to violate the late emperor's decree?"
This is even more impossible. The late emperor's edict contains the most solid and righteous title for Zhu Gaochi to ascend the throne as emperor.
If he violates it, wouldn't it mean that the very foundation of his ascension to the throne will be shaken.
Zhu Gaochi already understood what Yu Qian meant. He shook his head repeatedly, "Of course not. It's just that the country's soldiers and horses are not in the king's hands, but they are in the hands of the prince..."
Yu Qian stepped forward again and asked, "Does the prince have any objections?"
"He even asked me to become Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty..."
"Then you are not forced by these people!" Yu Qian is still a little sober and does not directly say that it was forced by His Majesty. "You are bent on seizing military power. What does this make the prince think?"
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.
Yes, no one has thought about what the prince is worried about.
With all his heart set on taking away military power, should the prince think that he would be deposed? Otherwise, why are you so desperate to seize my military power?
"The late emperor's decree entrusts military power to the crown prince." Yu Qian, who was just a small green-robed official, turned around and glared at the many nobles, "You are so aggressive. Could it be that you want Yi Chu!"
No one dared to answer this.
After giving everyone a hateful look, Yu Qian turned around again and saluted Zhu Gaochi.
"Your Majesty! The late emperor has passed away and the new emperor has ascended the throne. This is the time for ambitious people to fish in troubled waters! If your Majesty wants to save money easily, please speak up. If you don't have such intention, then I will ask for an order to kill these treacherous people who encourage your Majesty. Villain!"
Yang Pu, Yang Shiqi and others all rolled their eyes.
I am a horse-riding man who is upright and has become a treacherous villain?
I dare not say it was an enlightenment, but Zhu Gaochi definitely came back to his senses.
I had never thought about Yi Chu. After all, the other sons were nothing compared to that boy.
And that kid doesn't look like he's planning to commit rebellion. So what exactly is he fussing over?
"His Majesty!"
Yu Qian further enlarged his tactics here: "I am the censor of the city. When I was patrolling the city, I heard rumors everywhere, and even nursery rhymes that reflected the prince. Throughout the ages, many people who are like flies and dogs have used this to cause trouble. Rumors are spread behind the scenes. , the people who drive a wedge between His Majesty and the Crown Prince are either these noble officials or a few princes."
"Yu Qian!!"
Yang Pu really couldn't bear it anymore. This bastard really dared to say anything!
He stamped his feet angrily and pointed at Yu Qian tremblingly, "Shut up!"
Is this because you are afraid that the matter is not big enough and you want to drive everyone to a dead end?
You bastard really dares to say anything!
What if the emperor and the prince became suspicious and thought that the prince was behind it? They even thought that a noble person was assisting and tried to peek into the reserve.
Hey~~~I don’t even dare to think about it!
It’s not that he was suspicious, Zhu Gaochi already believed it at this time!
Just like Yu Qian said, throughout the ages, who has peeked at the position of prince, has not always done this?
The most typical one was Yang Guang. Zhu Gaochi was even thinking about whether the boys who came to greet him yesterday wanted to pretend to be filial.
Yu Qian, a man in green robe, ignored his immediate superior's immediate superior at all. He saluted directly to Zhu Gaochi, "For the Heavenly family's plan, for the emperor's plan. Your Majesty, please issue an order to respect the late emperor's edict, grant military power to the prince, and welcome the prince and the victorious army." Back to the city!"
"well."
Zhu Gaochi nodded repeatedly and looked at the green-robed official in front of him, "What's your name?"
"My name is Yu Qian, from Qiantang."
"Okay." Zhu Gaochi nodded again, "Yu Qing's family, take the imperial edict out of the city to find that boy, and tell him to give him whatever he wants."
