The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 327 If I want to, I can do it

With several thousand soldiers, this was an extremely large force.

No sooner had Zhu Xiongying left than many people began to target her previous policies, and some even vandalized the schools that Zhu Xiongying had previously established.

For a time, the entire Yingtian Prefecture was in chaos.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't joke with these people and directly arrested them and punished them in the Ministry of Justice.

Several learned scholars who came to plead for mercy were also thrown out by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Many officials and scholars in the court twitched at the sight, because they were all too familiar with this scene; Zhu Xiong Ying had used the same method when he confronted them.

They expected Zhu Xiong Ying to learn from the Crown Prince Zhu Biao, but instead the son didn't learn from his father, and the grandfather learned bad things from his grandson. It's really such a bizarre thing.

This was said by an official.

"Your Majesty, I impeach the Crown Prince. During your period of recuperation, His Highness listened to slander and changed many of his governing principles. These new policies are extremely arrogant, and the people of our Great Ming are suffering greatly as a result. I implore Your Majesty to abolish them all!"

Following this, many more officials stepped forward, but this time the number of officials who stepped forward was only about one-tenth of the number of officials in the court.

Most officials have long since learned to be shrewd. The Zhu family is united, so there's no way they'd try to sow discord or trip them up. They might even be working together in secret, and everyone knows each other's backgrounds.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at these people and said with a cold laugh.

"These policies seem to have worked fine while the Crown Prince was still regent!"

"How come the problems have surfaced so soon after the Crown Prince left? Was it because the Crown Prince did a good job and you were all useless, or is someone deliberately causing trouble?"

The officials' expressions changed drastically upon hearing this, when one of them spoke firmly.

"Please forgive us, Your Majesty. It's not that we insist on doing this, but these policies are simply too outrageous. If they were implemented, our Great Ming Dynasty would perish in no time. This is utter nonsense and misleading the public. We implore Your Majesty not to carry out these policies, otherwise, it will be a calamity for our Great Ming!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, as if the actions of the Crown Prince Zhu Xiong Ying would inevitably lead to the ruin of the country and the depletion of its talent pool.

Zhu Yunwen, who was standing to the side, was extremely excited and seemed about to speak.

However, at this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at these officials and said...

"It seems you don't fully understand these things yet. Fortunately, there's a school in Yingtian Prefecture. Why don't you put aside what you're doing and go to the school to study for a while?"

The officials in the court were extremely displeased upon hearing this. They were all highly respected officials, many of whom had gone through the imperial examinations to finally reach their positions. To have someone who did not understand the Four Books and Five Classics serve as their teacher was an utter disgrace.

They'll probably never be able to hold their heads up in front of their apprentices again. Although that's what they think, no one dares to refuse. To dare to contradict the emperor would be truly asking for trouble.

They could only follow the story of the emperor's performance and go to the school to study the textbooks compiled by Zhu Xiong Ying, which made them very depressed.

At this moment, Boyalunhai looked at Zhu Xiong Ying in front of her with great curiosity. Zhu Xiong Ying was so much younger than her, so why did he look so mature? Moreover, he had already developed such a powerful force. Very few people could do such a thing. After thinking about this, she sighed. The Ming Dynasty had produced three wise rulers in a row. If this continued, she wondered how their grasslands would develop.

Besides, the Ming Dynasty has already developed to this state, so what will become of them? Thinking of this, she sighed, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

They seem to be worried about the future of the Mongolian steppe.

"Why do you suddenly want to leave Tianfu? Don't you know that many people are eyeing your position? And those policies you issued, if you hadn't been there to keep them in check, they might all have been abolished once you go back!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"It's truly impressive that you've considered so many things, but unfortunately, these aren't issues you should be concerned with!"

"Besides, I've never taken those guys seriously!"

"My place will always be mine, and no one can take it away!"

Bo Yalunhai sneered when he heard this.

"When Qin Shi Huang sent Prince Fusu to inspect the Great Wall in the north, Prince Huhai conspired with Prime Minister Li Si and Zhao Gao to alter the edict, ultimately leading to Prince Fusu's wrongful death!"

"I think your future fate will be no different from that of this young master Fusu!"

Zhu Xiong Ying burst into laughter.

"Fusu died because he was stupid. Otherwise, how could Meng Tian's 200,000 troops have lost to a mere Hu Hai?"

"Could a mere eunuch really cause chaos and bring down the entire country?"

"So what if one of the positions in Yingtian Prefecture doesn't belong to me? I can lead my men to conquer an even larger territory!"

"There are still many powerful countries in the world that need to be conquered. I've heard that there is also the Timurid Empire in the west, which is a branch left over from Genghis Khan's westward expedition. How much do you know about this country?"

Bo Yalun Hai felt extremely proud upon hearing this.

"When Genghis Khan conquered the west, he annexed a vast territory. In addition to the Central Plains, he divided the land under his control among his four sons, which later became the four Khanates!"

"But in reality, there were many other countries besides these four Khanates, but they were not recorded!"

"And the Timurid Empire, which has now grown powerful, is undoubtedly one of the most powerful ones!"

"It's a pity that so much time has passed, and the blood ties are no longer as close as they used to be. Our relationship with the Yuan Dynasty isn't as good now!"

"Many of them have even been corrupted by those guys and are no longer of the Golden Family bloodline!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled.

"That is indeed interesting. Perhaps one day in the future we will be standing on Timur's territory and discussing these things again!"

Bo Yalun Hai was extremely surprised to hear this.

"Do you intend to wage war on that place? That's a very far place to the west!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled.

"Back then, your Northern Yuan also claimed to be extremely powerful, but didn't I still manage to destroy it?"
