Let Zhu Yuanzhang become the Supreme Emperor...
In Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, Chu Ze's proposal was completely nonsense.
He is the founding king of Ming Dynasty! Now it is in its prime.
What kind of emperor does he think he is at this age?
However, facing Lao Zhu's threatening words, Chu Ze sighed helplessly.
He personally felt that his proposal was very pertinent.
Zhu Biao is in pretty good health now.
There's nothing wrong with it except being tired.
So it is conceivable that after Queen Ma died of illness, Lao Zhu's temperament changed drastically.
How much pressure did he put on Zhu Biao after that?
So much so that Zhu Biao's body was slowly crushed in the aftermath.
If you want to save Zhu Biao, then you have to solve the problem from the root!
Lao Zhu abdicated and became the emperor, and then let Zhu Biao take the throne directly. Lao Zhu should kill people and meddle less.
Doesn’t this eliminate all problems?
In Chu Ze's opinion, this is definitely a good idea.
"Your Majesty, that's all I can do. The rest...you can only figure it out by yourself. I will only be a commoner in future generations, so don't put too much hope in me."
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was obviously not satisfied with his answer, Chu Ze could only shrug helplessly.
I only have so much ability, so do whatever you like anyway.
After Lao Zhu looked at Chu Ze's expression that didn't seem like he was joking, he gradually fell into silence.
If Zhu Biao's death was caused by his existence...
So how should he choose?
"Is there no other way?"
Under the flickering lights, Zhu Yuanzhang's face looked particularly gloomy.
But Chu Ze saw a hint of struggle on Zhu Yuanzhang's face at this time.
He was actually really moved!
Look at the struggling look on the face of the legendary emperor in front of you.
Chu Ze couldn't help but restrain his concentration for a while.
Zhu Yuanzhang's fatherly love for Zhu Biao is definitely among the best among emperors.
It is difficult to judge whether he is a qualified emperor, but at least for Zhu Biao, he is definitely a qualified father.
"Your Majesty, there is actually something I know I shouldn't say, but... forget it, don't be so emotional. I will just say it directly. You! Don't think that you are too great. "
"Um?"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still thinking about the future, couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard Chu Ze's sudden words.
Then he looked at Chu Ze, who was sitting opposite, with a somewhat displeased expression.
Was this guy mocking him just now?
"Your Majesty, you don't have to look at me like that. I know very well what you are going to do next. Let me give you a general introduction. It won't be long before a shocking massacre breaks out in the tomorrow Dynasty!"
"Among them, I don't need to say who initiated this massacre. As for who the target of the massacre is, I don't need to say. After all, you know it very well."
"After this massacre, you abolished the prime minister system that has been passed down for thousands of years. You completed the most powerful centralization of monarchy! You concentrated all the power into your own hands. At the same time, you also hope that future generations will be able to monopolize power like you. , to avoid causing the prime minister to disrupt the government."
"This killing lasted for several years, and tens of thousands of people were killed!"
"And after this massacre, you did achieve your goal. You abolished the position of prime minister..."
"But for this, you also paid the price. During the process of this killing, Queen Ma passed away, and Prince Zhu Biao gradually developed differences with you because of disagreements."
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Chu Ze's unhurried speech. His eyes were fixed on the tea cup on the table from beginning to end. The tea in the cup seemed to be exactly what he was feeling at this time.
It looks calm but is actually turbid.
Facing the silent Zhu Yuanzhang, Chu Ze was still minding his own business.
"Your Majesty, do you think you are powerful by abolishing this system that has been passed down for thousands of years? Then by taking over the power alone, you can avoid harming the country and causing chaos in the government?"
"Why haven't you thought about how many things you have to deal with every day without the prime minister to help handle government affairs? The whole country must handle all matters big and small by yourself."
"Yes, you have been through hardships and wars since you were a child, and you seem to have endless energy and patience to deal with these things, but are your descendants really like you?"
"Isn't there a time when they want to be lazy?"
"You have left behind the ancestral teachings that future generations are not allowed to establish the position of prime minister! It is true that your descendants have not established a prime minister. But they have established an institution even more terrifying than the prime minister: the cabinet!"
"Your Majesty, the trajectory of history cannot be replaced. A person's energy is limited after all. With this killing, you have indeed achieved your goal in a short period of time, but what about the long term?"
"What is the result of your killing? What is the meaning? Isn't the foreshadowing behind your tolerance of Hu Weiyong for a long time just to watch him, the prime minister, make trouble and then take the opportunity to abolish the prime minister system?"
"The situation is invincible! The reason why dynasties rarely have regimes that can last for three hundred years is because under the monarchy system, the emperor's power is too great! It's okay to say that emperors are wise and capable, but once any emperor goes wrong, generations of people will be affected. Our foundation will be destroyed in one fell swoop!”
"This cannot be stopped by human power!"
When Chu Ze said these words, he showed a certain degree of maturity and stability that was inconsistent with his young appearance.
As Lao Zhu listened to Chu Ze's narration, his fists clenched involuntarily.
If someone else said these words in front of him, at least a scar as big as the mouth of a bowl would be left on the other person's neck.
But what Chu Ze said made Zhu Yuanzhang unable to kill Chu Ze.
Because, so far, only Zhu Yuanzhang himself knows that he wants to completely abolish the prime minister system.
He never mentioned this matter to anyone.
But Chu Ze said it right away and told him that his plan was successful.
But it wasn’t completely successful!
"Chu Ze, if we give Biao'er more power...will it make Biao'er less..."
"Your Majesty, please save it. Why should you give him more power? Give him more work? You can tire him out as soon as possible...Although Prince Zhu Biao is recognized as the most stable prince in history, he After all, he is just the prince."
"And... your murderous intention is too serious. And the prince has been practicing benevolence since he was a child. There will be absolutely no problem for him to govern a peaceful and prosperous age. But under your hands, the more he behaves like a wise king, the more likely he is to be a wise king." The ending becomes more fixed!"
"Unless he doesn't care about anything, he just eats, drinks and has fun, waiting for you to hand over the throne of emperor to him. But if that's the case, will you still trust Ming to him?"
