Chapter 61: The entrance of Crown Prince Zhu Biao, the presence of the Jin Wang Party in the court (Please read, please vote for the monthly ticket, please vote for the recommendation ticket!)
"Prince, what do you mean?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, then turned to look at Zhu Biao.

But as soon as these words were spoken, Zhu Gang, who was standing in the hall, frowned decisively.

Even Hu Weiyong's eyes flashed with surprise.

It was obvious that these were things that had already been decided, but why did Zhu Yuanzhang turn around and ask Zhu Biao?

What was he trying to do? To share the hatred for Jin Wang Zhu Gang?
Or did Zhu Yuanzhang not want to re-establish the post of Censor, so he wanted to seek help from this benevolent prince?

The re-establishment of the inspection system was terrible news for all civil and military officials, but for Zhu Yuanzhang, it would only make it easier for him to control the court.

So there is no reason for Zhu Yuanzhang to refuse, right?

"Old man, you should be able to see that I don't really want to drag you down with me, right?"

A hint of thought flashed across Zhu Gang's eyes.

But he was as confused as Hu Weiyong. After all, facing Zhu Yuanzhang's outrageous actions and the good situation before he asked Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang could not open his mouth.

So what is it all about?
"I think the King of Jin's suggestion is a good one. Re-establish the Inspectorate to supervise the whole country."

"But the Procuratorate is a thing of the past, so using it again would seem like going back to the old ways."

"So I propose that the Inspection Office be rebuilt into the Imperial Guard, and that the North and South Pacification Offices be established at the same time."

"."

"In this way, even if Your Majesty is sitting in the palace, you can still keep an eye on all directions and listen to all directions."

While thinking, Zhu Biao turned around, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and bowed.

But at the moment of turning around, Zhu Biao's eyes lingered on Qin Wang Zhu Chong for a moment.

"Flying fish suit, embroidered spring sword, night brocade clothes, blood all over the court!"

"Your Majesty, I request your permission to be the first commander of the Imperial Guards!"

Zhu Chong also understood the meaning of Zhu Biao's eyes, so he took a step forward, then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and bowed to ask for his instructions.

As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell into silence again, and all the ministers looked at each other in shock.

After all, Crown Prince Zhu Biao's proposal not only did not oppose the re-establishment of the Jianxiu post.

Instead, he proposed a more comprehensive and complete supervisory system, the Jinyiwei.

Moreover, its power is more than a hundred times greater than that of the former Procuratorate.

After all, he could completely avoid the three courts, directly arrest people and interrogate them in one go, and he would not be bound by any power, and he would still be responsible to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Therefore, this undoubtedly enhanced Zhu Yuanzhang's ability to supervise officials to a higher level. At the same time, it also meant that civil and military officials would face stricter supervision and constraints.

Even Hu Weiyong's face flashed with a complicated expression, and he secretly thought in his heart: "Is the Jinyiwei strengthening the supervision of the officials, or is there another purpose?"

To be honest, this was the first time that Hu Weiyong was so close to the truth. If he thought about it carefully, it would not be difficult to see the trick.

But unfortunately, Hu Weiyong has always been conceited and never thinks about himself.

"Boss, what on earth do you want to do?"

As for Zhu Gang, who was standing next to Zhu Chong, he was a little confused about Zhu Biao's actions. Why did he have to take action himself?

And they even dragged Zhu Chong, a guy with a lack of brains, into this?

"allow."

Zhu Yuanzhang tapped the dragon throne gently, as if he was thinking, and after a moment, he nodded.

I obey your order, thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Biao and Zhu Chong bowed together again.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

The ministers were helpless and said in unison. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's words were golden, so once they were spoken, they were facts that could not be changed.

Moreover, such a complete Jinyiwei system must have been planned by Crown Prince Zhu Biao for a long time, so even if there is any objection, it will be of no avail.

But agreeing is one thing, and putting obstacles in the way is another. After all, according to the Jinyiwei system, if this continues, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty will have a sword hanging over their heads.

If you are not careful, you will lose your head, so for the sake of your own life, you should either not be greedy or drive the Jinyiwei out of the court.

But if you are not greedy, the salaries of court officials are definitely not enough to support a family.

After all, the salaries in the Ming Dynasty were notoriously low among all dynasties, so only corruption could support the family.

The last way left is to drive the Jinyiwei out of the court, but this is not easy. However, everything depends on human efforts and there is always a glimmer of hope.

"If you have a certificate, please report it. If you don't, please leave the court."

Then, the chief eunuch Wang Jinghong spoke loudly in his unique shrill voice.

After he finished speaking, no court official came forward to make a report.

"Retreat."

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up calmly, turned his head slightly, waved to Zhu Gang and the other three princes beside him, and then stepped into the back hall.

"Farewell, Your Majesty. Long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty!"

All the ministers also praised in unison and watched Zhu Yuanzhang walk into the back hall, their tone full of respect.

As Zhu Yuanzhang's figure faded away, the atmosphere in the court relaxed and all the ministers breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the atmosphere of this morning court was so oppressive that it seemed to be strangling their necks and making it difficult for them to breathe.

"Prime Minister Hu, please come to my East Palace after noon. I have something to discuss with you."

At this moment, Zhu Biao's voice sounded, his words were gentle but contained deep meaning.

In particular, the sound of Zhu Yuanzhang's footsteps completely disappeared deep in the back hall.

Zhu Biao just glanced at Hu Weiyong and gave him a meaningful smile.

Although Hu Weiyong didn't understand, he bowed slightly and said with just the right amount of respect: "As you wish, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Just at the moment of lowering his head, a gleam of brilliance flashed across Hu Weiyong's eyes, but in the next instant, it disappeared without a trace.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, Your Highness, the Prince of Jin."

Duke of Weiguo Deng Yu and Marquis of Deqing Liao Yongzhong also came over and saluted Zhu Gang and Zhu Biao.

In response, Zhu Biao still had a smile on his face, and his attitude remained as gentle and humble as before.

As for Zhu Gang, he was more casual. He looked directly at Deng Yu and Liao Yongzhong and waved his hand: "You guys go to the imperial study first."

"As ordered."

Deng Yu and Liao Yongzhong exchanged glances, then saluted together with a respectful attitude.

Hu Weiyong, who saw the whole scene, had a hint of thought in his eyes before he bowed and left the Fengtian Hall.

It seems that the rumors are true. In addition to Duke of Wei Deng Yu and Duke of Song Feng Sheng, even Marquis of Deqing Liao Yongzhong belongs to the Jin Wang Party.

Jin Wang Party? That's right, whether it's Weiguogong Deng Yu, Songguogong Feng Sheng, or Deqinghou Liao Yongzhong, they are all Jin Wang Party now.

"You shouldn't interfere in the establishment of the Imperial Guard."

After all the civil and military officials had left the Fengtian Hall, Zhu Gang looked at Zhu Biao and said, "We shouldn't have dragged the second brother in."

"So I should let my brother stand in front of me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao just waved his hand.
