Section 161

Such crude assassination techniques were definitely not something that good second uncle could do.

"You are fighting outside. I don't know what your second uncle is doing recently."

Zhu Pangpang picked up a bowl of hot tea with a knowledgeable look on his face.

"What is your second uncle doing recently...that's what Zhan Kan said, that immigrant!"

"migrant?"

Zhu Zhankan laughed twice and saw Zhu Pangpang's serious expression.

Second uncle, is there really an immigration policy?

"That is to move all the Tatars and border residents who have their hearts set on the Ming Dynasty to the Hetao area."

"They were beaten like that before, how can they be willing to move?"

The situation of Tatar and Oara is special but not that special.

From a certain perspective, both families inherited part of the orthodoxy of the former Yuan Dynasty.

Why is it said that part of the orthodoxy is inherited?

They did not inherit the most authentic land at all.

The richest land of the Central Plains was lost in the hands of their fathers and grandfathers.

In other words, most of them have a hostile attitude towards Daming.

Not to mention that a few months ago, he was just exported by Ming Dynasty.

The organizational structure was almost reduced to pieces.

"As for relocation, how can the defeated Tatars decide how to relocate?"

Zhu Pangpang hesitated and said: "Second son...Oh, this is also unethical."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhankan became a little curious.

"Didn't Lao Er's subordinates train a bunch of warriors?"

"This Tatar Wala is a country in name, but in fact it is dominated by tribes."

"Basically, it's up to everyone to do their own thing."

"So, the second brother directly sent warrior Qing Mimi... to kill the tribe leader."

"Then, we ask the other party to move inland openly."

Speaking of this, Zhu Pangpang looked speechless.

"The miscellaneous taxes and arbitrary taxes along the way! When those tribes migrate to other places, they will only have a set of clothes left."

Good guy.

Zhu Zhankan called him a good guy.

Is this immigration? Is this pure robbery?

Still quiet.

As long as I kill all the enemies who have seen me, I will be Qing Mimi, right?

Zhu Zhanji turned the topic back to the assassins and took a sip of tea: "So, last night's assassins involved warriors under the second uncle's command?"

"That's not true." Zhu Pangpang shook his head honestly: "But the man behind the scenes is suspected to be the Chief of the Han Dynasty."

"puff!!"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji spit out a sip of herbal tea.

This might as well involve warriors!

Chang Shi, almost manages all matters related to 'name' in the palace!

Even to a certain extent, the power of the feudal king can be greatly restricted!

It can also completely represent the feudal king's intention.

Long history can be regarded as the extremes of two directions.

As for how to grasp this degree, it depends on the relationship between the feudal king and Nagashi.

Zhu Zhanji gloated: "Hey, maybe the second uncle is really in trouble."

Of course, neither Zhu Pangpang nor Zhu Zhanji believed that the King of Han would rebel or assassinate.

Others don't know Zhu Zhankan's strength, but they don't know it yet?

It’s probably not difficult to destroy a city with bare hands!

Not to mention that the foreign-minded Zhu Di is working on a new Ming Dynasty.

They, the princes and vassal kings, might be able to serve as leaders in the future.

Zhu Zhanji's expression turned gloomy: "So it was framed? Who?"

After hearing this, Zhu Pangpang didn't say anything. There were too many people involved.

Zhu Zhankan said in a positive tone: "Are ministers involved? There are many more. Are they ministers under you, dad?"

Zhu Gaochi did not hide anything, and nodded helplessly: "Indeed, even the cabinet bachelor is involved."

According to Zhu Zhankan's suggestion, the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty was not what it used to be.

In the initial version of the cabinet, a few people were selected as cabinet bachelors to temporarily assist in handling political affairs.

However, after system improvements, the cabinet directly became a fixed institution.

The categories of authority were also fixed.

The grade of the cabinet bachelor is fixed at the sixth grade, and the grade of the grand bachelor is fixed at the fifth grade.

The number also expanded from a few people to thirty-seven.

Moreover, the cabinet bachelors are only responsible to the emperor or the governor, and the appointment and dismissal of bachelors are entirely decided by the emperor.

It can be regarded as a low-end version of the military aircraft department.

Zhu Zhanji tightened his grip on the teacup: "These guys who eat everything inside and outside the house should learn from Grandpa Taizu and drag them all out to skin them and stuff them with grass!"

Zhu Pangpang looked even more worried: "If there were only one or two cabinet bachelors, this matter would be easy."

"Based on overnight interrogations and arrest investigations, at least seven or eight third- and fourth-grade officials were involved."

Zhu Zhanji wondered: "So what if there are so many officials involved? Are there still few people who want to be officials? If you pull in a group, there will always be someone who wants to climb up and become an official."

Zhu Pangpang shook his head repeatedly: "You have been fighting abroad for so long, so you may not know much about the situation in the court. It is not a good thing to be too involved."

Zhu Zhanji curled his lips and said, "What's wrong with that?"

Zhu Zhankan also echoed: "Dad, don't worry about the officials. It's just a little bit of trouble. When the emperor completely fixes the national destiny and condenses the official seal of the dynasty, officials will naturally flock to it after discovering the benefits of the official seal."

Zhu Pangpang coughed twice: "This is a huge scandal. It involves courtiers, nobles, and vassals. Maybe there will be rebellions everywhere."

"Wait a minute?"

Zhu Zhanji pulled Zhu Pangpang and said: "The courtiers and nobles can understand, why is there still something about the vassal king?"

"Hahaha."

Zhu Zhankan smiled and said: "Brother, have you forgotten so soon that Grandpa Huang reduced the feudal vassal?"

"The early years of Yongle."

"Almost all the military power of the vassal kings outside the country has been taken away."

"Grandpa promised to give the vassal kings wealth and glory."

"But last year, after the new vassal king policy was introduced, the vassal kings' minds..."

In the early Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu had to deal with the dilemma of no one to send to the north and no one willing to go.

Naturally, he had to appoint vassal kings to guard the north.

Expressing the attitude of a court that would not give up the north.

In order to ensure the safety of the vassal kings, the nine kings on the border almost each had a considerable number of troops.

In order to support the army and love his son "a little bit".

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang naturally did not skimp on annual salary and rewards.

In the early years of Hongwu, the vassal king system was actually quite adapted to the times.

After handing over the army and treatment to the vassal kings, the pressure of raising the army was alleviated to a certain extent.

At the same time, for personal safety, the vassal kings must work hard to train to ensure that the army maintains considerable combat effectiveness.

So as to achieve the effect of the vassal kings guarding the border.

But with the end of the Hongwu Dynasty, the problem of the vassal kings becoming too big gradually emerged.

That’s why Emperor Jianwen reduced the power of the feudal lords, which led to Zhu Di’s entry into Beijing to quell the rebellion!

Of course, it’s better to say that Emperor Jianwen eliminated the feudal lords than to say that he reduced the power of the feudal lords!

In just one year, he killed five feudal lords!
