Chu Ze's appearance was just like what he described.
After a tiny stone was thrown into the originally calm pond, the water waves began to sweep over everyone.
For now, for Zhu Yuanzhang, the most important thing is no longer rectifying the court or corrupt officials.
The most important thing for him now is how to modify the rules he has made.
At today's court meeting, Lao Zhu brought up the matter again, but in the civil and military circles of the court, there were very few people who dared to speak out.
Even capable people such as Hu Weiyong and Wang Guangyang, when they heard that Lao Zhu wanted to show off the issue of family support, no one dared to speak.
Because none of them could tell what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking at this time. If...
You know, many people opposed the idea of enfeoffing a vassal king.
The prince has no merit and is crowned king!
This is undoubtedly a case of trying to rule by splitting the earth, which is a situation that many people do not want to see.
However, not long after the enfeoffment happened, His Majesty suddenly brought up the old matter again, and in his words, he mostly wanted to reduce the vassal king's treatment and other issues.
This fact is really confusing.
Therefore, no one dares to speak rashly if what he says is inconsistent with His Majesty's wishes.
That would be very bad.
In addition, the situation between the DPRK and the Central Government is unclear, so when Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned this matter, most of the officials were evasive.
After all, it is never a good thing to speak hastily when the holy intention is unknown.
Under such a general environment, Lao Zhu came here with a gloomy face almost every morning.
It could even be said that he wanted to curse directly in the main hall.
But he still held back.
It wasn't until he returned to the imperial study that Lao Zhu's expression turned completely gloomy.
"Where is the Chuze man?"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who returned to the imperial study with a dark face, originally wanted to pick up the memorial on the table and take a look.
But as soon as he opened a memorial, his irritated heart caused him to throw the memorial back in his hand.
Lao Zhu currently has no clue about the clan support. But now, in addition to the clan support, he also has his eldest grandson...
These annoying things made Lao Zhu feel inexplicably irritable.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Chu Zeren is temporarily staying in the East Palace and is currently chatting with His Highness the Prince by the lotus pond."
Following Lao Zhu's inquiry, Erhu, who had been following him, took a slight step forward.
Although he had always been with Lao Zhu even when he was in court, he gave the answer without any hesitation when Lao Zhu asked about the matter.
"Find the prince and Chu Ze. I have something to ask them."
"yes!"
After receiving Zhu Yuanzhang's order, the sturdy Erhu replied angrily, then turned around to find Zhu Biao and Chu Ze.
However, he had just turned around, and before he could even take a step forward, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rang out again.
"Go and call the fourth and second sons. Also, what did Chu Ze and the prince talk about today?"
"yes!"
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's follow-up order, Erhu just nodded mechanically, then turned around and left quickly.
Not long after, a thick booklet was delivered to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Just as Chu Ze guessed, this book contains all the earlier conversations between Chu Ze and Prince Zhu Biao.
It even included notes on Chu Ze’s demeanor and tone when he spoke every word.
When Lao Zhu finished reading the booklet in his hand, he was already in a irritable mood, and now the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Jinyiwei...the name is quite good."
Only a few people in the entire Ming Dynasty know about the existence of Jin Yiwei.
Moreover, Jin Yiwei did not know each other's existence.
It can be said that today's Jin Yiwei is like a spider web, and the core of this spider web is Zhu Yuanzhang himself.
However, Chu Ze was able to tell so clearly the existence of this still-unnamed organization, and even its operating methods were clear.
This point undoubtedly once again shocked Zhu Yuanzhang to a certain extent.
"People from the hereafter..."
After reading the entire contents of the booklet, Zhu Yuanzhang closed the booklet heavily.
At the same time, he also let out a deep breath.
The people of future generations...the pebbles that originally fell into the calm pool...
And the impact on the completely unknown future...
Just one night later, Chu Ze stepped into the imperial study room again.
But this time when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang again, his mood changed slightly.
When he faced Lao Zhu for the first time, Chu Ze felt more nervous and uneasy.
After all, this is the great killer!
The total number of officials who died under Lao Zhu's order may be as many as 160,000 to 70,000.
Of course, this is only a possibility, and the specific number is probably only a lot more.
However, this time, when he stepped into the imperial study room again and looked at Lao Zhu sitting on the main seat, Chu Ze's mood became particularly calm.
"Your Majesty, how about noon!"
As soon as he stepped into the imperial study room, Chu Ze waved and greeted the other party enthusiastically.
It's just that I didn't get a response.
"His Royal Highness King Yan, good lunch! Have you eaten?"
"This one looks strange!"
...
After a good night's rest and his mentality gradually calming down, Chu Ze looked particularly sunny and cheerful at this time.
Of course, I'm a little bit skinny.
After seeing that Lao Zhu did not respond to him, Chu Ze turned his attention directly to Zhu Di who was aside.
He smiled cheerfully at the other person.
However, Zhu Di just rolled his eyes.
"You'd better not look at me and smile, I'm so panicked..."
Zhu Di really didn't have a good impression of Chu Ze at this time!
Especially when he thought about yesterday, when this guy cast not-so-kind glances at him from time to time, Zhu Di felt his head buzzing.
After returning to Prince Yan's Mansion yesterday, Zhu Di immediately found the counselor beside him.
When the other party heard about Chu Ze, the first warning given to Zhu Di was that this person was very dangerous!
The second warning is to keep Zhu Di away from him, and it is best not to have any relationship with him.
Of course, if possible, don’t communicate too much with Chu Ze.
Chu Ze claims to be from a later generation, so if His Majesty really believes what he said, this person may become the sharpest knife in His Majesty's hand in the future.
Of course, it is also possible that His Majesty will become the sharpest knife in his hand, but this is unlikely.
Next to Zhu Di was Zhu Yuanzhang's second son, who Chu Ze said was the Qin King Zhu Cang who was indirectly responsible for the death of Prince Zhu Biao.
However, at this time, Zhu Xi was still looking at this guy with curiosity, who was still so impudent in front of his father in the imperial study room.
He had no idea that he was going to be in trouble!
