Chapter 60 The murderous intention from Emperor Hongwu

Chapter 60 The murderous intention from Emperor Hongwu (Please read, vote for the monthly ticket, and recommend!)
"Reset the inspection!"

As Zhu Gang finished speaking, all the civil and military officials looked at each other, with surprise and shock flashing across their faces.

Even many court officials couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Jianxiu was responsible for secretly monitoring the behavior of court officials.

In particular, it was responsible for monitoring the unfair and illegal behavior of officials in all government offices in Beijing, as well as collecting various rumors.

They can even be directly responsible to the emperor.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the post of Censor was abolished by Zhu Yuanzhang, but what the officials did not know was that the post of Censor was only abolished in name only.

But secretly, Zhu Yuanzhang integrated all the members of the inspection team into the Royal Army Commandant's Office and the Yiluansi.

His duties are still to secretly monitor all civil and military officials.

"Your Majesty, the Lu family's attempt to murder the Crown Princess is tantamount to the crime of treason."

"And if the Crown Prince hadn't noticed a clue, how could we have found out?"

"If the Crown Princess dies because of this, wouldn't it bring shame to the Ming Dynasty royal family?"

"So I ask Your Majesty to re-establish the Inspection Office to monitor the whole country and prevent such incidents from happening again."

Zhu Gang's expression remained normal, but the chill in his voice was clear to everyone.

But at this time, who can stand up and stop Prince of Jin Zhu Gang from re-establishing the post of Inspection?
Don't forget that the trigger for the re-establishment of the Inspection Office was the Jiangnan Lu family's plot to murder the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess Chang Qingyun was the Crown Prince Zhu Biao's legal wife and the mother of the Emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying. However, she almost died because of the Jiangnan Lu Family.

This was a huge provocation to the Ming imperial family, so even if they wanted to stop Zhu Gang, they were powerless.

After all, at this time, the Mandate of Heaven had returned to the Jin Dynasty, and no matter how fantastic the court officials' words were, Zhu Gang could refute them.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Because now is indeed a good time to reset the inspection.

If we miss today, we will have to deal with Hu Weiyong before we can re-establish the post of Inspector.

"Your Majesty, I think that the move to re-establish the Inspection Office must be done with extreme caution."

"It's because the old system of inspection and supervision was helpful in rectifying the government, but the spies were everywhere, and the officials were wary."

"Besides, although the power of the inspector is not great, he can be directly responsible to His Majesty."

"In the past, there were many villains who used the name of the inspector to frame loyal officials, resulting in many unjust, false and wrong cases."

But before Zhu Yuanzhang could speak, the right prime minister Hu Weiyong took another step forward and bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang.

After Hu Weiyong finished speaking, even Zhu Gang glanced sideways.

That's why there's almost nothing wrong with these words.

Hu Weiyong did not say that it was wrong to re-establish the Censorate, but he only warned Zhu Yuanzhang to be extremely cautious.

In particular, the hidden meaning is that once the inspection and correction system is re-established, it will surely cause disunity between the ruler and his subjects.

It may even cause the same thing that happened in the past where the inspectors deceived their superiors and framed loyal and honest people.

It seems that Hu Weiyong is thinking about Zhu Yuanzhang, but isn't the sharpness behind his words also a warning?
So Hu Weiyong could be said to be smart, but he used his intelligence in the wrong place.

As expected, Zhu Yuanzhang on the dragon throne looked gloomy again, but he did not get angry. He just looked at Hu Weiyong coldly.

The two fists hidden under the sleeves were clenched slightly.

After all, Li Shanchang didn't dare to speak to Zhu Yuanzhang like this back then, but Hu Weiyong did it today.

It is true that the waves behind push the waves ahead. Could it be that Zhu Yuanzhang really did not have many years of education and could not understand the meaning of Hu Weiyong's metaphorical warning?
While thinking, Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head slightly, and his eyes flashed with crazy murderous intent.

"Prime Minister Hu, this is wrong. The Ming Dynasty today is no longer the same as it was in the past."

"Especially the matter of the Lu family in Jiangnan is like a thorn in my side. It is also a warning to me that there are hidden dangers in the court that must be noticed."

"So the purpose of re-establishing the censorship system is to nip problems in the bud. As for the problems of the past, they were not the fault of the system, and we only need to enforce the law strictly."

"As for Prime Minister Hu's words of being extremely cautious, are the court officials wary?"

"I can't understand why you are so cautious and fearful."

"Could it be that all the civil and military officials in this palace are breaking the law?"

After saying this, Zhu Gang looked at Hu Weiyong coldly again.

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers in the hall were shocked, and they all bowed together, saying respectfully and eagerly, "Your Majesty, we have absolutely no intention of doing anything wrong, and we hope Your Majesty will understand!"

At the same time, all the ministers secretly cursed Zhu Gang for being nosy!
Hu Weiyong's words were almost perfect, and it seemed that there were no loopholes at all, but Zhu Gang was still able to counterattack with an extremely tricky response.

They even interpreted the cautiousness and fear as meaning that all the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall were afraid of the review and re-establishment.

Because they themselves are not clean to begin with, and once they are found out, it will be a capital crime.

Therefore, they will naturally try every means to obstruct the re-establishment of the inspection office.

However, the ministers did not understand what the re-establishment of the Censorate had to do with Zhu Gang?
Moreover, he had offended all the civil and military officials in the court to death. What good would this do Zhu Gang?
As for why Hu Weiyong spoke up about the matter of inspection?
In fact, it was very simple, because Zhu Gang suggested re-establishing the Censorate, which was also a blow to Hu Weiyong. After all, it was true that he formed a clique for personal gain in the court.

But on the surface, Hu Weiyong could still control the degree well so as not to make Zhu Yuanzhang suspicious of him.

But once the inspection was re-established, Hu Weiyong, as the right prime minister of the Secretariat, would naturally be the focus of attention.

Hu Weiyong didn't dare to gamble his life and property.

Another reason is that Hu Weiyong knew Zhu Yuanzhang too well, so he never spoke too confidently.

However, the words "be extremely cautious and all ministers should be wary" were not meant entirely for Zhu Yuanzhang, but included all the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall.

After all, disunity between the emperor and his subjects can be a serious matter or a minor one, and even the emperor has to give his subjects some face.

Zhu Gang's proposal to re-establish the post of inspector was thus dealt with in a dignified manner.

But who could have thought that Zhu Gang did not play by the rules at all. Instead, he overturned the table and chose to confront Hu Weiyong directly.

As for Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on the dragon throne, and Crown Prince Zhu Biao, there was a flash of understanding in their eyes.

By offending all the civil and military officials, Zhu Gang was completely cutting off his own roots. This was also a disguised message to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao.

Zhu Gang would use practical actions to tell Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao that he had never set his sights on the throne of the Ming Dynasty, and that he had a broader future ahead of him.

Therefore, the establishment of the Censorate offended all the civil and military officials, and Zhu Gang took all the blame!

And if one day, Zhu Gang can no longer bear this blame, that will be the day when he, Zhu Gang, leaves the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, an inexplicable look flashed across Zhu Biao's eyes again.

"Your Majesty, I have no objection."

Afterwards, Hu Weiyong looked at Zhu Gang deeply before looking at Zhu Yuanzhang and bowing.

Now that it seems that the re-establishment of the Inspection Office has been decided, we must be doubly careful in the future and must not leave any evidence behind.

As for Prince of Jin Zhu Gang, after this court meeting, he became Hu Weiyong's opponent.
