Chapter 159 Your Majesty, please be a little bit hard, don't play around,
I have something to say?

What can I say?

And you think I have something to say.
After hearing Zhu Biao's words, Chu Ze felt as if he had been infected with bad karma.

And when he was wondering, Zhu Yuanzhang was also staring at him.

"What's wrong with Zhu Liangzu? Tell me directly."

After Chu Ze heard Lao Zhu's words, he briefly explained what he knew about Zhu Liangzu.

When I heard that Zhu Liangzu framed Zhongliang, a fish and meat commoner.

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprisingly not angry this time, but his expression became more and more calm.

And when he knew that his father and son were finally whipped to death in the hall by him, Zhu Yuanzhang did not take any action.

It seems that I have seen through everything.

"Hey, arrogant soldiers are the most difficult to control. In wartime, in front of foreign enemies, they are brave and resolute. But in Taiping years, these people lost their restraint, and each of them thought that they had military exploits, and they were unscrupulous and unscrupulous. "

"It's hard to restrain, and I can't persuade you. Hey..."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he sighed silently.

Sometimes, he doesn't really want to.

But unfortunately, these former subordinates are really disappointing.

"I wanted to share this peaceful and prosperous world with them, but none of them know how to restrain themselves."

At this time, although Zhu Yuanzhang spoke in an extremely calm tone, he did not conceal the killing spirit between the lines.

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Empress Ma opened her mouth to say something, but finally endured it.

Although she is kind-hearted, she can't understand Lao Zhu's wanton killing.

But everything is right and wrong, if Zhu Liangzu really deserved what he deserved, then Empress Ma would definitely not stop Zhu Yuanzhang,

However, taking into account the past affection, she would persuade Zhu Yuanzhang to give him a decent way to die.

That was all she could do.

At this time, Zhu Biao didn't know what to say.

But Chu Ze shrugged indifferently.

"Your Majesty's words roughly mean that it is useless to give you a chance. It is understandable."

Chu Ze was generally aware of how harmful the arrogant warriors in the early Ming Dynasty were.

And since this time, he has gradually understood the meaning of some words.

Sharing adversity is easy, but sharing wealth is difficult.

Sometimes it is not all the fault of those in power. When we are in trouble together, we all have a common goal.

Everyone is working towards this goal.

However, when we started to share wealth, everyone's goal changed again.

Those in power need to maintain their own rule, and they need to gradually prosper the world that has been finally conquered.

However, the followers couldn't reverse their position for a while.

After all, I thought that I was still sharing weal and woe, and did not regard the world as a part of myself.

There is a small family in the heart, but there is no everyone.

There will inevitably be conflicts and differences between the two.

"How do you see that you are gradually understanding us?"

Looking at Chu Ze who was spreading his hands aside, Zhu Yuanzhang asked him with a slightly teasing tone.

However, facing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Chu Ze just waved his hand.

"Your Majesty, don't misunderstand. I understand that you are dealing with these arrogant soldiers. At least I don't think that you are crossing the river and tearing down the bridge."

"However, I still don't agree with your handling method."

"Each of these former followers thinks they have meritorious service and can be unscrupulous."

"However, coincidentally, when seeing your former colleagues handle it for you, many people will not feel that there is anything wrong at all."

"On the contrary, they will feel that the other party's merits are not enough or that they have offended you. And they think that they will not be dealt with."

"Because everyone will think that he has done a lot..."

"Especially, Your Majesty, when you still issued such nonsense as death-prevention scrolls."

"If you can't police the hundred by killing one, then you can only leave a label of ungratefulness on yourself."

...

After Chu Ze finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang gradually fell silent.

In fact, what Chu Ze said was exactly what troubled him the most.

Killing chickens to warn monkeys mainly plays a deterrent role.

But judging from the current situation, the deterrent effect is not obvious.

After seeing their former colleagues submit to punishment, many people not only did not feel cold, but were still complacent.

"Do we have to have a drink to release our military power?"

"Ah... this is your business. My only suggestion to you is that unnecessary killings can be reduced. After all, during your entire Hongwu reign, you killed nearly 15 officials..."

"It is impossible to remember exactly how many people were implicated to death."

"Such a huge population, if all of them are sent to farm, the harvested food will be a lot more every year."

"Moreover, these populations and the new population that will be born later must also be counted."

"In your era, population represents labor force and food production capacity."

"Everything doesn't have to be about killing, right?"

When Chu Ze reported this number, Empress Ma frowned immediately.

During Hongwu's reign, so many people died.
This number is really too bloody.

"Chongba, what Chu Ze said about this matter is also reasonable. Although killing people is the fastest and easiest solution, you are the king of a country after all, and those you kill are all your people .”

"Whether they are officials or affiliates, these people are your people. From now on... everything doesn't have to be solved by killing people, maybe there are other ways."

After hesitating for a moment, Empress Ma also began to persuade softly from the side.

Killing people can indeed solve the problem once and for all, but after killing these people, what can they do?

In particular, if the purpose of deterring the living cannot be achieved, then the killing will be worthless.

And although Zhu Biao also wanted to speak a few words of persuasion, but after a second thought, Chu Ze and his mother had already spoken, if he spoke again at this time.

On the contrary, it seemed that his father had betrayed his relatives.

So Zhu Biao rolled his eyes, and then he spoke.

"Actually, I can't blame my father for killing. After all, the government affairs are already busy, and these nobles are people who have lived and died with my father. Now that the world is at peace, instead of helping, they are making trouble behind."

"Father, how heartbroken is this! When you are popular, you will inevitably lose some reason."

"Father, are you right?"

"Yes, yes, it's better for you to see our bid, our bid understands our painstaking efforts!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been talked to by Empress Ma and Chu Ze in such a manner similar to accusations, had a big bag in his heart.

After all, he himself does not think there is anything wrong with what he did, even if he killed 10,000+ people during his administration, so what?
Since they can be killed by him, it means that they are all damned.

Since they are all damned, is it wrong to kill them?
A perfect logical closed loop was thus born.

And because Zhu Biao spoke for himself, Lao Zhu's mood suddenly became much brighter.

When he looked at Zhu Biao again, his eyes became kind.

"It's useless for you to tell us these things now. We don't care about things now, do you know? Especially sister, you can't scold us anymore. We are now close to retirement."

"Chu Ze, you too, if you have something to say, if you have anything to persuade, you go discuss it with Biaoer, don't tell us about us retreating behind the scenes, it's you who brought it up yourself. You see Look, we are now close to retirement!"

"How you want to deal with it is your own business. Let's serve as a big banner for you and scare Xiao Xiao."

"Biao'er, you should handle Zhu Liangzu's matter according to what an emperor should do. Remember one thing. You are the prince, but in our eyes, you are the emperor now. Don't worry about the friendship of the elders or me. old ministers and things like that.”

"Everything is subject to the law and the will of the emperor. Those who deserve to be killed will be punished."

"You just need to know that we support you."

After having Zhu Biao speak for himself, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand in a good mood, and left everything to Zhu Biao to handle by himself.

And after saying this, he raised his eyebrows provocatively at Empress Ma and Chu Ze beside him.

Aren't you all persuading us to kill less people?

Hey, it's all right now, let's just ignore the matter.

You can't say that we are not right now, can you?
We don't care about anything, as long as the general direction is not wrong, we will just sit in the rear like this.

Watching the chaotang turbulent.

Watching our standard punish all directions.

Now, it has nothing to do with us!

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was full of embarrassment, Empress Ma also made him laugh for a while.

"Look at your age, you still have such a childish face. Are you ashamed!"

"Hey, Biao'er, we plan to take your mother out to go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers for a while, and you can deal with the recent affairs in the court by yourself, can you?"

"Ah? Father, are you leaving the palace?"

"Yeah, we've been tired of staying in this palace for a long time, and now we have nothing to do anyway, so we naturally want to take your mother around for a walk. What's wrong? You still don't agree!"

"No. I'm just worried about the safety of my father and queen mother. And"

When Zhu Biao heard that his father was going to take his mother out of the palace to play, he shook his head in disbelief.

I am afraid that I have heard wrong.

And after seeing his son's unbelievable face, Lao Zhu muttered a little unwillingly.

"We told you a long time ago that I'm going to take your mother out for a stroll. What's the matter, you have to take care of us when we go out now?"

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Biao was speechless immediately.

What else can he say.
Zhu Biao was speechless, and Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at Chu Ze again.

There was a hint of questioning in his eyes.

"You?"

"Uh what's wrong with me?"

"Do you have any opinions? Don't we have to set off at that time, you will come and scream again, disturbing our interest! If you have any opinions, tell us quickly, let's talk ugly first."

Chu Ze looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who asked him seriously if he had any opinion on this matter.

The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

When you asked Zhu Biao, you spoke softly and smiled happily.

Now that you ask me, you grit your teeth, your fists are so bruised, even if I really have an opinion, how dare I speak at this time!

You old double standard monster!
When Chu Ze didn't know how to answer these words, Empress Ma stretched out her hand under the table and gently pinched Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Chongba, ask questions carefully, how dare Chu Ze speak when you are acting so viciously?"

"Don't be afraid, child. The godmother will support you. If you have anything to say, just say it. Nothing will happen to your adoptive father."

Being interrupted by Queen Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang could only let go of his clenched fist resentfully.

However, he still did not forget to send Chu Ze a warning with his eyes.

It took him a long time to coax his sister to go out this time before she agreed.

If Chu Ze dismissed the matter in a few words, then this kid will suffer a lot!
"I don't have any complaints about His Majesty's tour. But you have Jinyiwei, you are always going out anyway, so you can take it as a tour around the place. While traveling in the mountains and rivers, let the Jinyiwei check it out, and then Go to some iconic places."

"Look at what kind of life the people in your world live."

"What are the defects in various places, why the people are safe, or why the people are not doing well, these reasons can be summed up."

"If you need anything in the future, you can make some adjustments after you come back."

After hearing Chu Ze speak, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression became better.

As long as this kid doesn't make trouble, it's fine.

As for what he said, even if Chu Ze didn't say it, he would still do it.

But Chu Ze didn't forget to add a sentence at the end.

"Your Majesty, when you go out, don't go out with the emperor's gift, or else you will come everywhere, and if you don't say anything else, you have to pretend to be fake. At that time, what you will see is full of false appearances of prosperity in various places. , Although your Majesty is in a good mood, it is not a good thing for the people of the world."

"The godmother is not in good health. The ordinary carriage is too bumpy. If you travel for a long time, it will not be good for your health. I will ask the proving ground to make a new carriage in the past two days. It will be used when you travel."

"Others, I have no opinion."

"Count your kid's fun!"

"Heavy eight!"

After Chu Ze finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand impatiently.

Immediately started chasing people away.

Now the son and adopted son have no objections.

And the things that should be asked have been asked.

Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally not happy that the two of them squatted beside the light bulb.

Zhu Biao and Chu Ze, who were driven away, could only look at each other with a speechless smile at this time, and then silently bowed and left.

But before leaving, Chu Ze seemed to think of something again.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, and then said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, let me say one last thing. The godmother is old and her health is not good. She is no longer suitable to have children at this age, and her life will be in danger."

"So, please don't mess around!"

As soon as Chu Ze finished speaking, a teapot was thrown towards him and Zhu Biao.

This movement scared the two of them as if their butts were on fire, and the one who had fun ran away without a trace.

 Ask for a monthly ticket, ask for support!Don't ask, you don't even give monthly tickets!
