Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 239 I can't guess how they will arrange me

"Your Majesty has such fantastic ideas that your son-in-law really doesn't know what to say?"

Wang Buli completely followed Zhu Yuanzhang's ideas.

As for whether it was beneficial to Ming Dynasty, he didn't care.

"Just tell me, what do you think of the idea?"

"After six lifetimes, His Majesty's descendants will surely be countless.

If they were not allowed to use their talents and reimbursed Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it mean that Ming Dynasty had lost many outstanding talents? "

Wang Buli's rhetorical question made Zhu Yuanzhang and his son a little uncomfortable.

After all, they had just learned that too many future generations were useless.

Now Wang Buli praised the emergence of outstanding talents, which made Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously feel that he was being arrogant.

But according to Wang Buli's understanding, with so many children in the Lao Zhu family, there will always be mediocre ones, bastards, and outstanding talents. For details, please refer to the old Liu family of the Han Dynasty.

Since ancient times, there has been no celebration ceremony for the birthday of an emperor.

After listening to Lu Ben's advice, Zhu Yuanzhang, as an independent husband, was a little unhappy.

It doesn't make sense no matter what.

However, the ancestral instructions were changed to the birthday of the emperor, and sacrifices were first performed in the ancestral temple, followed by family rites, celebrations by officials, and a banquet.

If the feudal princes of Zongzhengji were colluding with the emperor, wouldn’t they be ministers who were not even qualified to give advice? "

It's better to let go and let them find their own way.

Lu Ben was speechless by Zhu Yuanzhang's idea.

There was only one person in Zongzheng Temple, so he had nothing to do.

The emperor planned to take away the power of the Ministry of Rites and transfer it to a fifth-rank official.

This department was originally a gathering place for idlers, and Zhu Yuanzhang was ready to turn this department into a business.

But Lu Ben felt that he had done nothing wrong, not to mention that his daughter's belly was getting bigger.

Many children bring good fortune, and outstanding talents will always appear.

This is also a rule that ministers can use to restrain the feudal king!

"I intend to let the Dazong Zhengyuan handle this matter specifically."

Zhu Yuanzhang established this yamen in the third year of Hongwu.

It would be extremely difficult for Lieutenant Feng Guo to support a large family by himself.

"Go and call Lu Ben."

There is only one person under this yamen who has the experience of being a fifth-rank official, and he is in charge of sending and receiving official documents, which is actually just an idle job.

After Zhu Di came to power, most of these official positions were held by relatives.

In addition, many of them require ceremonial discussions from the feudal king and others. Doesn’t the minister know that this can be done?

Nowadays, the second to sixth lao hold official positions, all of them are full-time, and all are temporary positions.

What do you mean by collusion? Even though you are Biao'er's father-in-law, you can't talk like this.

In his opinion, it is much better for his own family to criticize his own family than for outsiders to restrict the imperial power.

"In this way, it can be regarded as providing more outstanding talents to the Ming Dynasty."

Manage the genealogy of the royal family, clan, and relatives, and protect the royal mausoleums.

Your Majesty worked hard to compile the ancestral instructions just for them.

Lu Ben was very surprised. He frowned and retorted directly:

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate. If the ministers are not informed of the contents of the ancestral injunctions, ministers will not be able to participate in many of the matters contained therein."

Lu Ben quickly admonished: "Nowadays, your Majesty's princes are all wise and powerful, but since ancient times, it is difficult for a wise king to last for three or four generations, and there will always be incompetent descendants.

So the experience officer is not busy at all, just sending and receiving nonsense official documents!

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that it was better to imprison his descendants and make them impoverished, unable to receive education, and even have no names.

At least they won't starve to death.

Nowadays, no one has died, no mausoleums or temples have been built, and in Fengyang the people from the Ministry of Rites are presiding over the worship ceremonies.

Zhu Yuanzhang told him to destroy the records of ancestral teachings stored in the Ministry of Rites directly, and he would carefully rewrite them. He told Lu Ben that the records of ancestral teachings stored in the Ministry of Rites should only be distributed to the heirs of the clan.

Zhu Yuanzhang touched his beard a little and couldn't help but smile:

Today, on this day, I offer sacrifices in the ancestral temple with ceremony, and then talk about family etiquette, but the officials do not celebrate.

No external communication or anything like that.

So Lu Ben, the Minister of Rites, was called over. After saluting, he saw Wang Buli sitting on the side of the prince, and he immediately remembered those rumors.

Wang Buli nodded in agreement, feeling that he was a bit like a smiling man with a mask.

"Yeah."

Whether they will succeed or not, we know better than you, an old man.

But Zhu Yuanzhang was secretly embarrassed, but he still agreed with the steps given by Wang Buli.

In the Tang Dynasty, Xuanzong began to celebrate the Qianqiu Festival on his birthday, but later generations could not reform it because of their establishment.

"Think twice, Your Majesty!"

The lesser of two evils, Zhu Yuanzhang preferred that the imperial power should not be interfered with by outsiders.

Lu Ben was familiar with the ancestral teachings, otherwise he would not have been transferred back by Lao Zhu to be the Minister of Rites. Before he was deposed by Lao Zhu, he was still the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments.

This is how the power of the officials of the Ministry of Rites can be given to other yamen.

What's more, he had just transferred him to serve as the Minister of Rites and had thrown away this important power. Lu Ben didn't even dare to think how the Ming historians would record this incident.

Moreover, Lu Ben didn't think that the royal idlers would restrict the emperor's actions, and everyone was not in the same mind.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Lu Ben's advice and nodded slightly:

"Biao'er, what do you think?"

Zhu Biao was a little confused when he was suddenly named.

He saw Wang Buli looking down at the gap in the ground.

Pretending to be deaf and dumb, right?

He stood up and took two steps first, pretending to think about it, but in fact he didn't think about it at all.

I just think what Wang Buli said makes sense. The book compiled by my father was originally meant for the emperor to read, and it was an "educational textbook" on the emperor's mental skills.

What my father was worried about was that ministers would use this ancestral instruction to restrict imperial power.

But what his father-in-law said just now makes sense. Zhu Biao has a much gentler temperament and is not as decisive as his father.

"What dad and father-in-law said are reasonable."

Zhu Biao first calmed down the two people who were arguing, and then said:

"It is better to destroy the ancestral training records stored in the Ministry of Rites first, and wait until the father compiles a new one, and then distributes it to Zongzheng Temple, and sends officials from the Ministry of Rites to explain the ancestral training records to the clan and relatives, and select the best ones."

Wang Buli then raised his head and heard that Zhu Biao's method of making peace with the mud was in line with his father's ideas.

The emperor.

How could he take the initiative to give people reasons to restrict imperial power?

This is the choice all single husbands make.

The world is big and I am the biggest.

I will kill anyone who checks and balances me like that!

Lu Ben tugged at his beard and was speechless.

His son-in-law has spoken out to support his father, so is it possible that he, the father-in-law, still wants to refute his son-in-law, the future emperor?

Lu Ben obviously hesitated.

Especially since his daughter is still pregnant. As a veteran of the Yuan Dynasty, he can argue with Lao Zhu, but for the current prince, Lu Ben can't say anything.

He could only cup his hands and say: "I hope His Highness the Prince will think twice."

"Let's do this first."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and did not let Wang Buli express his own remarks to refute Lu Ben.

He does not need to deflect the conflict.

Wang Buli is a person of great use, and it is not used to attract hatred at all.

In fact, after Wang Buli finished speaking, he had a conclusion in his mind. He called Lu Ben, the Minister of Rites, to tell him what to do, not to discuss with him.

He doesn't deserve it!

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Wang Buli, who said nothing. We can refer to this guy's opinions.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang feels more and more that Wang Buli's role as an outsider is very beneficial to him.

He didn't care about the factions, or whether the prince could successfully succeed to the throne, or whether Ming Dynasty had any better policies.

He only thought about whether he could be lazy and whether Ming officials could have two more days off.

Damn, this kind of temperament is quite similar to those of the Taoists Zhu Yuanzhang knew.

Love, don't delay my cultivation of immortality.

But Zhu Yuanzhang felt that Wang Buli had not cultivated immortality at all, but was still young and had been enjoying himself.

Because according to Wang Buli's complaints, officials came to congratulate Lao Zhu on his birthday.

In fact, it is equivalent to no vacation. In actual operation, there are two days of vacation a year. Daming Niu Ma is so damn capable!

Wang Buli would not try to change Lao Zhu's thinking.

There is no education for adult talents, only screening.

Old Zhu wishes he could be worked like a slave, but how could he make others become superior?

They are all fucking part-time workers. Wang Buli really can't sympathize with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Don’t even think about educating Lao Zhu.

Wang Buli didn't think Zhu Yuanzhang was a person who could change his mind easily.

It's surprising that he can listen to others' advice now.

Wang Buli and Zhu Yuanzhang would not share their inner thoughts with others.

Lu Ben saw Wang Buli still sitting there steadily without saying a word.

He knew in his heart that Wang Buli was a die-hard princeling.

The two of them are also natural allies and belong to the same faction.

Lu Ben felt that although Wang Buli was good at solving crimes, he didn't understand political struggles. He didn't say anything at this time, but he agreed with the temperament of being cautious in investigating cases.

Lu Ben couldn't persuade Zhu Yuanzhang, so he went back to arrange the matter and talk to his left and right ministers first.

There is no need to talk to Prime Minister Hu Weiyong about this matter.

Because Lu Ben knew that Hu Weiyong would definitely object.

He slowly exited the hall with a sad look on his face.

Could it be that the emperor's change was to allow Wang Buli, a close relative, to replace King Qin as the chief official of Zongzheng Temple in the future?

Anyway, this position is very relaxing.

But Lu Ben heard that Wang Buli was a capable man. How could the emperor place him in a idle position? Wouldn't that be a waste of talent?

So Lu Ben couldn't understand.

"Buli, what do you think of the prince's handling of the matter?"

"Everyone, please take a step back."

Wang Buli also knows that in the court, everyone must compromise with each other to achieve a delicate balance.

One group really got the better of the other group.

Will the other faction end well?

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Wang Buli, this guy is so damn thoughtful.

Even at this point, he still talks nonsense. He is a man who can get involved in official circles, but we don't like such officials.

Of course, few of the officials of the Hongwu Dynasty could satisfy Lao Zhu.

So far, Song Lian, who has served him for decades, can be regarded as an official who satisfies him!

Wang Buli didn't think there was anything wrong with him if he was ambiguous and didn't express his own opinions.

When dealing with Lao Zhu's inquiries, it's always right to be careful.

Zhu Biao was very satisfied that Wang Buli could see through his thoughts. This was called tacit understanding.

Zhu Yuanzhang returned to his chair:
