Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 127: Chu Nan, stop being so cruel. Even I, Zhu Yuanzhang, can’t stand your evil schemes!
But Zhu Yuanzhang did not think the same as the other princes. It was not that he, Zhu Yuanzhang, had to listen to whatever Chu Nan said, but because he, Zhu Yuanzhang, did not want to be influenced by Hu Weiyong's power.

This world should belong to Zhu Yuanzhang alone, and he should not share it with Hu Weiyong.

So he urged Chu Nan again: "Chu Nan, just tell me, how should I deal with this Hu Weiyong issue?"

"I now do not want Hu Weiyong to continue to be the prime minister, nor do I want the world to continue to have the prime minister system."

"This..." After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's clear words, the princes and Yao Guangxiao present were shocked beyond words.

It seems that Your Majesty is determined to depose the Prime Minister. Abolishing the prime minister system is an inevitable trend and no one can stop it, right?
They were silent. Since Zhu Yuanzhang had made up his mind, what else could they say? Now it depended on what plan Chu Nan would come up with.

"Your Majesty." Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang asked this, Chu Nan did not say any more and started talking directly.

"My idea is actually very simple. This prime minister must be removed because his power is too great and affects your majesty's power. However, removing the prime minister will definitely cause unrest in the court and shock the world."

"Therefore, Your Majesty should never bring up this matter first. Instead, you should let Hu Weiyong become arrogant first, and then make everyone in the world hate him. After Hu Weiyong is eliminated, you can use the opportunity to point out the dangers of being a prime minister to the world and take the opportunity to depose him."

"Ah?" But after Chu Nan finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.

Chu Nan was really too bold and daring to openly discuss the extermination of a prime minister? This was really a taboo!
If there was a traitor here, Chu Nan would probably have been killed by Hu Weiyong, but fortunately there is no traitor here.

But after hearing Chu Nan's words, Zhu Yuanzhang did not think there was anything wrong with it.

On the surface, Hu Weiyong was not as arrogant as Lan Yu, nor did he do as many wrong things as Yang Xian.

But Zhu Yuanzhang was very good at judging people. He could feel that Hu Weiyong was definitely a very ambitious person, and his ambition had been growing in recent years. So how could Zhu Yuanzhang tolerate him?

Therefore, after hearing Chu Nan's words, Zhu Yuanzhang not only did not think there was any problem, but he also thought about it seriously and then looked at Chu Nan.

"Chu Nan, keep talking. How did Hu Weiyong become so arrogant first?"

"Of course, give him power." Chu Nan continued.

"Your Majesty, the power you have given Hu Weiyong now is not enough. You need to give him more power and make him feel a sense of crisis. That is, make him feel that Your Majesty will harm him in the future."

"The reason for doing this is simple. If we just give Hu Weiyong power, he might just enjoy it and become a powerful official."

"But if he feels a sense of crisis and thinks that Your Majesty will harm him, he might rebel. And if Hu Weiyong rebels, wouldn't it be legitimate to kill him and then remove him from office?"

"What?" The people present were not so shocked at first, but after hearing Chu Nan's words, they were shocked again.

What is Chu Nan talking about? This is too outrageous, isn't it? This is just nonsense?
Chu Nan wanted to depose the prime minister, so he had to kill Hu Weiyong first. And the way to kill Hu Weiyong was to force him to rebel? Wouldn't Hu Weiyong have to die?
This is too shocking. They all want Hu Weiyong to be injustice. Can't Hu Weiyong live? Can't he take the initiative to retire and return home, and then live?
In order to kill someone, they forced him to rebel even though he was innocent. Isn't that too much? Don't they think it's too unreasonable?

"Hmm..." But after listening to Chu Nan's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's face became silent.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not a merciful emperor, but a cold-blooded one. So after hearing Chu Nan's words, he did not think much about whether Hu Weiyong should die. Instead, he considered whether Chu Nan's method would work. After thinking about it, he nodded directly.

"Chun Nan, your method is fine and legitimate, but how are you going to force Hu Weiyong to rebel? How are you going to make him feel a sense of crisis?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care whether Hu Weiyong died or not. He only cared about whether his imperial power was stable. He thought it was better for Hu Weiyong to die.

The reason is simple. Because Zhu Yuanzhang removed Hu Weiyong from the position of prime minister, Hu Weiyong must be resentful.

Once Hu Weiyong becomes resentful, he will definitely be a hidden danger, so it would be better to let him die directly.

"This..." The princes were shocked when they heard this. Their father really didn't care about Hu Weiyong's life or death? It was too scary...

It seems that no matter whether the attempt to depose the prime minister is successful or not, Hu Weiyong will be finished sooner or later.

But when Chu Nan heard this, he was very calm, because he had long expected that things would develop like this and that Zhu Yuanzhang would think this way.

The reason is simple. He has read history and knows that Zhu Yuanzhang is just that kind of person. He would never allow the power of the prime minister and the power of the emperor to compete, nor would he allow people like Hu Weiyong to exist.

So in fact it’s not that my strategy is brilliant, but that I am just adding fuel to the fire.

Chu Nan was also very happy at this moment, because at this moment, he not only took Zhu Yuanzhang into account, but also Hu Weiyong.

This time Hu Weiyong was doomed to die, and the reason was simple, because he absolutely did not believe that Hu Weiyong would give up his power as prime minister so easily.

Therefore, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang forces Hu Weiyong a little, Hu Weiyong will definitely have ulterior motives and will definitely rebel. Therefore, Chu Nan is now waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to find a way to give Hu Weiyong a sense of crisis.

Therefore, when Zhu Yuanzhang asked Chu Nan how to give people a sense of crisis, Chu Nan did not say anything more and spoke directly.

"Your Majesty, it is very simple to make Hu Weiyong feel a sense of crisis. Just attack the people around Hu Weiyong, or attack Hu Weiyong's opponents."

"People like Hu Weiyong have many political enemies. These political enemies are not only enemies of Hu Weiyong, but also closely related to him. They fight and make enemies, but they also balance each other. Only in this way can they feel that Your Majesty can rest assured."

"So if your majesty kills Hu Weiyong's opponent, he will definitely feel grief for the loss of his opponent, become terrified, and then take actions to rebel."

"So, my plan is very clear now. Your Majesty, please take action against Yang Xian, and it would be best if Hu Weiyong were to supervise the execution!"

"Ah!" After hearing Chu Nan's words, all the princes present were stunned.

Chu Nan is too vicious, isn't he? Everyone knows that Yang Xian, Hu Weiyong and Chu Nan have a grudge against each other, but Chu Nan's plan is to get rid of Hu Weiyong and Yang Xian directly.

Isn't Chu Nan too vicious? Anyone who becomes his enemy will be poisoned to death?
