Bi Ziyan and Sun Chuanting left Zhu Xu's room, discussed for a while, and began to convene the cabinet, the six Shangshu, Zongrenfu Zongzheng and others to discuss.
More than ten people held a meeting, each with their own opinions and ideas, Bi Ziyan was not enough to subdue everyone, and the matter of 'demoting' was too complicated, so it was noisy for a while, and it was impossible to make a decision.
Zhu Xu could hear the sound outside inside, and looked at the design in his hand with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
This is a very detailed drawing of the cabinet expansion, redesign, and even all the class rooms, ancillary facilities, large chambers, etc.
This drawing comes from the Ministry of Engineering, and it can be said that it is considered comprehensive, atmospheric, majestic and in line with the mainstream of thrift.
After carefully observing for a while, Zhu Xu looked up at Cao Huachun not far away, and said, "Tell the cabinet, the Ministry of Industry, I am not satisfied with this drawing, and also, the cabinet and the generalissimo's office should be symmetrical, plan together, and cannot be designed alone, it must reflect the prime minister of the cabinet for government affairs, and the generalissimo's office for the army, and it must be majestic enough!"
” Cao Huachun stepped forward to take it and said, "Yes, the slave will transfer it to the cabinet." ” Zhu Xu was about to nod, but suddenly said: "Give the cabinet a name: the Yamen of the Cabinet of the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, and order the Ministry of Work to make a plaque." ” Cao Huachun's expression moved slightly, and then he said, "Obey the order." ” This name is to further elevate the status of the cabinet, make it clearer, and it is difficult to shake.
Zhu Xu didn't say anything more, and took the notebook casually.
When the cabinet was noisy, in the Wucheng Cabinet, Sun Chengzong, Shen Yongmao, Cao Wenzhao and others also continued to discuss the military reform of the 'Generalissimo's Mansion'.
Not only to meet Zhu Xu's requirements for the integration of coordination and coordination and to be able to have enough elite soldiers to respond quickly, but also to ensure that the Generalissimo's Mansion and the localities check and balance each other, and there will be no feudal towns that threaten the bottom line of the community, everyone is also trying their best and racking their brains.
Shen Yongmao was the most involved in the 'military reform', he looked at a group of people, and said: "The basic framework has been built, with nine departments and two bureaus, led by a duke, and the term of office is limited, the local provincial government garrison is 15,000, each military region has set up 50,000 battalions, and two battalions have been set up near the Beijing Division......"
Sun Chengzong sat on the throne and did not speak.
Cao Wenzhao was also listening silently, obviously, Sun Chengzong and others had basically designed it, and there was no room for him to interfere at all.
And this design seems to be more powerful, the local government has enough ability and power to respond quickly in the event of a special situation, and does not worry about the court being held accountable, and the camp can wait and see what happens during this time period, and play the court with enough buffer time.
Of course, if a large battalion needs to be dispatched, it must be a big thing, and the response of the imperial court will be quite fast.
Shen Yongmao talked for a while, glanced at Sun Chengzong, turned his head to Cao Wenzhao and said, "What do you think of General Cao?"
” Cao Wenzhao raised his head, glanced at a few people, then frowned and thought for a while, and said in a slow tone: "Your lords are all thoughtful, Xia Guan is a military general, it is not appropriate to say more, but about the candidate to lead the Generalissimo's Mansion, you must be cautious." ” Cao Wenzhao is regarded by everyone as a spy sent by the emperor and a representative of the emperor, and no one will underestimate him.
Sun Chengzong looked at him and said lightly: "What do you think?"
Sun Chengzong now seems to be as majestic as a mountain, deliberately putting pressure on Cao Wenzhao.
Sun Chengzong seemed to be asking Cao Wenzhao, but in fact, everyone knew that this was asking the emperor in disguise.
Cao Wenzhao has not seen Zhu Xu yet, and he is not clear about his thoughts, but according to his understanding, since the military reform is so big, it will never be a simple unified adjustment, and there should be other purposes.
"Xia Guan is just proposing for your lordship's reference."
Cao Wen edicted, his expression was immovable, and he cherished words like gold.
But Sun Chengzong, Shen Yongmao and others heard a different taste, and their expressions showed thoughtful expressions.
After a while, Sun Chengzong said, "I will write a recital overnight, go to the cabinet tomorrow, and present it to the emperor, and Cao Zongbing will also come." ” Cao Wenzhao didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Zhu Xu's pot now, so he pondered for a while and nodded, "Yes." ” "Then let's discuss the details."
Shen Yongmao looked around.
Naturally, everyone has nothing to say, the 'military reform' is a matter of great importance, and it is also a redistribution of power, and no one wants to miss it.
The palace is in full swing, and the outside of the palace is now becoming more and more lively.
The clan's 'demotion to the knight' has set off a heated discussion in the capital, I don't know how many people are talking about it, there are those who support it, those who oppose it, and there are many people who are silent.
The most concerned is the princes of the clan and the princes of the county, who are concerned about their glory and wealth, and their descendants are extensive, where do they dare to be careless.
Even if it was miserable enough to be tossed by Zhu Xu, at this time, they still came up one after another, expressing their dissatisfaction in various ways.
In Zongren's Mansion Zongzheng, after King Lu entered the palace, the princes and county kings from all over the country gathered in the Jin Palace, and now he can say something.
At the same time, a group of princesses, princesses of the county, etc., entered the palace one after another, asking to see the old concubine, Empress Dowager Zhang, Li Jieyu and others.
For a time, the palace and the palace were boiling, rumors were everywhere, and it was noisy.
What is said that the current emperor hates King Fu, and even has a deep hatred for the clan, and wants to kill them all!
What cabinet minister has a long-standing grudge against the clan, and now he has great power, and he wants to take the opportunity to take revenge!
What clan someone is plotting to rebel, the court wants to kill a hundred clouds, and the list goes on.
Zhu Xu sat in the cabinet, as steady as Mount Tai, letting the rumors outside pour in, he stood still and looked at the situation with a smile.
That night, inside the Cining Palace.
The old lady, Empress Dowager Zhang, and even Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu and others were all called over, looking like a three-hall trial.
Zhu Xu came in, looked at this posture, coughed, and said with a smile: "Concubine, imperial sister-in-law, why is there such a big movement?"
” Empress Dowager Zhang didn't speak, her face sank like water, and her eyes were cold.
The old lady's face was not very good-looking, she looked at Zhu Xu and said: "Emperor, how do you govern and clean up the world, the old woman doesn't care, and she can't care about it!"
It's just that what is the clan, that is our royal family's own people, guarding the Quartet for the emperor, ruling the world, to put it bluntly, it is the moat of our royal family, if there is no river, the royal family will be in danger......"
Concubine Liu's tone was unprecedentedly heavy, and there were lessons, exhortations, and even a faint hint of pleading.

Concubine Liu is the Dinghai Shenshen Needle in the palace, and after Zhu Xu ascended the throne, she has helped him resolve the crisis of the court situation many times, and she is a very respectable old man.
The stiff smile on Zhu Xu's face slowly put away, he couldn't ignore the old lady's words, and he couldn't help but listen to the voice of the Empress Dowager Zhang, and he was a little silent for a while.
Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Zhu Xu's expression, and finally felt a little unbearable, and said: "Your Majesty, the clan is different from others, flesh and blood are rooted, and you must not move lightly."
'Demotion is especially important', do you have any other filings?
” Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu and the others were not qualified to speak, and sat on the side, looking at Zhu Xu with a worried face.
Zhu Xu glanced at Empress Dowager Zhang, and then at Concubine Liu, the old lady is over eighty, although it seems to be improving, who knows when she won't wake up in the morning?
It's absolutely exciting!
The old lady looked at Zhu Xu, frowned, and said, "Emperor, tell me, what do you think in your heart?"
” Zhu Xu originally wanted to sit down, but looking at this posture, he couldn't sit down at all, looked at the old concubine, groaned, and said: "Concubine, imperial sister-in-law, the population of the clan, according to the statistics of the Zongren Mansion, there are about 400,000, what does this number represent?"
Even if each person has 20 stone a year, it is 8 million a year, plus weddings and funerals, etc., it can easily break 10 million, and my treasury last year was only 18 million, it's not that I have to 'demote the knight', it's me, I really can't afford to support them......"
Unable to hard-top, he decided to take the line of Bo sympathy.
The old lady's expression was slightly gloomy, and she was silent for a while, but she still said: "No matter what, the clan is its own family, and you can't let the adults in the outer court bully, the emperor has to express your position!"
” Although Zhu Xu has been working hard, hoping to break the confrontation between the inner and outer courts, it is obviously still not possible, and the deep-rooted concepts are difficult to eliminate.
The old lady's words are very firm, and her eyes are also very resolute, and she is overwhelming people with power.
Zhu Xu put one hand behind his back, rubbing his fingers and thumbs, if he wanted to complete the 'demotion of the clan', the harem was a hurdle that he had to cross.
After a while in his heart, Zhu Xu said, "In this way, concubine, imperial sister-in-law, this matter has not yet been decided, the cabinet should have a detailed transcript submitted tomorrow, and then I will discuss with some princes of the clan, if they do not agree, I will dismiss the cabinet, and in the next three years, I will not be allowed to talk about this matter again!"
” The old lady frowned, her face was still dissatisfied, and said, "Ten years!"
”
