King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

"Your Highness, please forgive me."

“This is a military camp.”

"We have absolutely no intention of offending you."

While speaking, the military generals and meritorious officers who were already kneeling on the ground kowtowed again to admit their mistakes in order to show their attitude and also to acknowledge the words of Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu, although they really didn't understand it in their hearts.

Why would the Prince of Han be like this? Why would he let the Crown Prince act like this, in order to increase his cohesion among the soldiers in the barracks and make all the soldiers remember his kindness.

But since Prince Han has approved of this matter, what else can these people say? What else can they say?

to this end.

No matter whether they were willing or not, no matter whether they were happy or not, since the boss had nodded in agreement, what else could they say?
I could only nod in agreement.

Soldiers' duty is to obey orders. What else can they say?

It is naturally impossible for them to be two-faced like the civil officials, or to only focus on their own interests and ignore their boss's ideas, and may even destroy their boss's plans.

Of course, they absolutely cannot accept such a thing, and they would never do such a thing.

It was precisely because of this that, even though they were unwilling and had no idea what was going on, all the military generals and heroes had to admit their merits in response to Zhu Gaoxu's call.

Seeing that the matter was solved so easily, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi could not help but be slightly stunned. He looked at the military generals and heroes kneeling on the stage with some disbelief, and then looked at the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu standing next to him. He always felt that things were not that simple. There must be something going on here, something that he did not know, hidden in it.

but……

Zhu Gaochi had no intention of pursuing this matter, because there was no point in pursuing it further since things had come to this point.

It is impossible for these people to tell me the truth, so I have to taste and ponder the things here carefully.

Thinking of this and confirming his idea, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi had no choice but to quit while he was ahead and not embarrass everyone with this matter, which would have made everyone lose face.

Then, Zhu Gaochi put on a faint smile, stretched out his hand with an extremely helpless expression, pointed at the kneeling military generals, shook his head slightly, and said:

"Okay, okay"

"You bastards are the only ones who have so many ideas. You bastards are the only ones who really care about the soldiers below."

"If we have anything to say, just tell us directly."

"It makes us think that you have something else to ask for!"

"It's so unclear, let us think you are waiting."

"but."

Having said this, Zhu Gaochi paused, as if he had thought of something, his expression suddenly became extremely serious, and he said in a deep voice:
"We don't care what you think."

"But you must remember one thing: what the court gives you is yours."

"Rather than what you personally want, or what the soldiers want."

"But after the court distributes it to you, what you guys think and what you want to do for your subordinates is your own business, and it is not for us to control."

"Therefore, all these things you are thinking about are completely unnecessary."

"By then, as long as you think of a solution, won't these problems be easily solved?"

"Why act like this?"

This statement.

It seemed to be Zhu Gaochi's concern and a joke.

But these words and actions were also a test for them as individuals. Of course, they also wanted to see if they could get some useful information out of the mouths of these military generals and meritorious officers.

However, it is obvious that Zhu Gaochi really underestimated the merits of these military generals. Although they all had many twists and turns in their minds, it did not mean that they were really fools. King of Han Zhu Gaoxu gave them a way out and pointed out the way for them, or gave them a clear direction.

For this reason, it is naturally impossible for these individuals to be so foolish as to admit it, let alone to really express their own opinions.

"So it is Your Highness the Crown Prince, and it is a gift from the court to the soldiers."

"How can we, as individuals, behave like this?"

"Where does this move put the imperial court, and where does this move put His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"That's why we don't know how to talk to His Highness and the Crown Prince."

"Please forgive me, His Royal Highness."

There is absolutely nothing wrong with what he said, and it is completely unreasonable.

Everything was done in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and the court and the face of the crown prince were put first.

Even though he had some doubts and suspicions in his heart, he was too embarrassed to say anything.

How to say?
Is it that what these people did was wrong?
In this way, wouldn't these individuals be allowed to ignore the rules? This is naturally not the result they want to see.

After a brief pause, Crown Prince Zhu Gaoxu looked calm, pointed at the people kneeling on the ground, smiled helplessly, and said:
"Okay, okay"

"You have spoken so bluntly."

"If I don't show some attitude, it would seem that I don't understand your efforts for the court."

"Hahaha"

"Okay okay okay"

"Since you guys have said this about this matter, then naturally we have nothing to say, and everything will be done according to what you just said!"

"Don't think too much. You want to open a so-called convenient channel for soldiers to exchange, that's your own business. Just make your own decision. We won't interfere too much in this matter, and the court won't cause you any trouble because of it."

"certainly."

“All of these things must be based on equality.”

"The soldiers don't get much in return. You can provide convenience to some soldiers, but this convenience cannot be used to exploit the soldiers' rare benefits, or the benefits they have gained after fighting for their lives."

"If we knew about this kind of thing, what would be the result if we tried it according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty? I don't think we would need to explain it to you in detail one by one!"

"Don't blame me for not considering friendship. You know your income and benefits, and you should know better than anyone else what benefits those soldiers have." "For this reason, we don't want the soldiers to shed blood and tears for the court."

"If I find out, I will punish you severely."

That's it.

What he said was indeed of high standard, but compared with the current military merits, it was complete nonsense.

As long as the imperial court could conceal the payment of salaries, these individuals never deducted a single cent from the salaries of the soldiers below.

Of course, it is not that they love their soldiers like their own sons, but they know better than anyone else what kind of life they live and what kind of life those soldiers live.

However, those soldiers have always been regarded as their core base. How could they do such a thing as killing the chicken to get the eggs? Isn't this just slapping themselves in the face?
Even for such things, for the military generals and heroes at this stage, they are still relatively proud.

Naturally, it is absolutely impossible to do such a thing as Zhu Gaochi said.

In response to the prince's warning, Wu Jianggong did not take this matter to heart at all, nor did he worry about it at all. He did not hesitate at all and replied very solemnly:
"Your Highness, please rest assured about this matter."

"I will never do such a thing."

"If His Royal Highness is worried about this matter, he can send officials from the Royal Guards or the Metropolitan Investigation Bureau to supervise it. In such a matter, if anyone dares to do so."

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, and the court don't need to worry about the person who did this. We all know what to do."

"It is absolutely impossible to let a bad apple spoil the whole pot of soup."

"It's definitely impossible. For such a small profit, I will bear the eternal infamy."

Now that things have come to this, what else can he say?
Can we continue to hold on to this matter?
This is obviously unlikely. If this were the case, wouldn't it seem that he is too petty and would be really laughable?

In response, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi smiled, nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand:
"Ha ha."

"You are worrying too much about this. I definitely don't have such thoughts, let alone such intentions."

"Of course, I believe in your hearts, and I believe in your love and cherishment for the soldiers and the court. Naturally, I don't believe that you would do such a thing."

Having said this, Zhu Gaochi paused, then suddenly changed the subject, his expression suddenly became extremely serious, and continued:

"Then let's not talk about this matter or anything else."

"Let's settle on what we just said. You all also said that the subsequent matters can be supervised by the Jinyiwei or the Metropolitan Investigation Bureau. Then let the Metropolitan Investigation Bureau intervene and handle the current matters with you. I think you should have no objection, right?"

"certainly."

"It's not that I don't trust you, but the court has put a lot of effort into this, and they definitely want to get some feedback, so."

Dele.

After all, it all comes down to not trusting these people!

Even though it sounds nice, there are hidden meanings and metaphors here. We are not fools and we know them better than anyone else.

However, since others have stood on the height of justice and they were the first to speak out, others can take advantage of the situation and go down the stairs, following what they said, and continue to speak. What can these individuals say?

Of course it is impossible to object.

If they really speak out against it, wouldn't it prove that they have something to hide?
Moreover.
As far as this matter is concerned, they originally had no such idea, and naturally they were not afraid of the supervision from the Jinyiwei or the Office of Investigation, and they had no worries at all.

Thinking of this, although the military generals and heroes were more or less dissatisfied with the way the prince handled things at this time, everyone was tactful and did not say much, and did not waste everyone's time by arguing about this matter.

Of course, there is no reason to leave these handles for others to use as an opportunity to attack me.

Then, the military commanders and meritorious officers in the field couldn't help but laugh, and their expressions didn't change at all. They just had a faint smile on their faces and said:
"fine."

"Since we dare to speak so openly about this matter, we are not afraid of any investigation, nor are we afraid of any intervention from external forces."

"Of course, we won't have any extra thoughts. The prince can do whatever he wants. No one among us has any objection."

"Everything is entirely up to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

That's what I said.

It can be said that he is quite confident and generous, and is truly dignified, without the slightest affectation, demonstrating the openness that is unique to the meritorious services of military generals.

Such behavior and this situation made the Crown Prince's words and behavior just now seem too mean, and he judged others by his own standards. It can be said that he had invisibly given Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi a big eye drop.

It's just like a dumb person eating bitter herbs, unable to express his pain.

I dare not say anything wrong about this, and I cannot make any different suggestions.

Although I achieved my goal and did what I wanted to do.

But for some reason, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi always felt uncomfortable in his heart. He always felt that he had been cheated invisibly, and had fallen into a trap dug for him by others, becoming a living target for others.

Although Zhu Gaochi had some doubts in his heart, things had already developed to this point, and it was not easy for him to say anything. It was even more impossible for him to give up something he had worked so hard to obtain just because of some feelings and disgust in his heart.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet, with a faint smile on his face, nodding in agreement, silently swallowing the loss, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, and said:
"Hahaha"

"Well, since all the nobles are so frank about this matter."

"Of course I don't have much to say. If I were to say anything, it would seem that I was being pretentious."

"Fine!"

"Let's not talk about whether or not to believe it. These things in the military camp should be recorded in the register. No records should be omitted."

"The Metropolitan Investigation Bureau or the Imperial Guards should stop planning to move in."

"As long as the account book is done well and can withstand the inspection of the imperial court, it will be fine."

"In this case, I think you will not have any objections, right?"

"This is a resolution that everyone can accept, right?"

Since the prince had already stepped back, they naturally took advantage of the situation and walked down the steps, bowing and saying respectfully:
"Your Highness is wise."

"Everything is up to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." (End of this chapter)
