All-Heavens Luck Seizing Path

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, struggled from beggar to emperor, started a bowl, struggled for several decades, and finally achieved the Supreme Position.

But because it is not easy, Zhu Yuanzhang is very fond of rights, and no one can tolerate his rights.

Later, with the help of the "Hu Weiyong case", he directly abolished the inheritance of the thousand-year-old "prime minister system". From then on, the power was concentrated on the emperor.

But the power is greater, the obligations to be assumed will also increase, and all the affairs of the world are decided by the emperor alone.

The huge and heavy workload is enough to crash anyone!

Zhu Yuanzhang is in good health and can support it, but his descendants are not so strong!

When Ming Chengzu Zhu Di was reigning, the emperor knew how to fight all day long, and where he was willing to deal with official affairs all day long, so he created a "cabinet system" to help him handle heavy official duties.

The number of auxiliary ministers in the cabinet ranges from one to seven.

In the beginning, the cabinet was only an emperor's consulting agency. The cabinet scholars seem to be famous, but in fact they have no power in their hands.

However, with the death of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di and Ming Renzong succeeded to the throne, this dear friend was even a short-lived emperor. He went to find his father Zhu Di to play chess after being the emperor for less than a year.

Ming Renzong was not in good health before he became the emperor. When he became the emperor, he was faced with that many official duties, and he almost didn't get on the ground.

Since the emperor can't do anything, he naturally let those who can do the job, the power in the hands of the cabinet expands a little bit, and the emperor becomes a mascot! Until Ming Xuanzong succeeded!

The young emperor of Ming Xuanzong did not have the ability to control the officials like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di. In order to check the "cabinet", he began to support the Court Eunuch group to balance the forces of both parties.

The head of the cabinet had the power to vote, and Ming Xuanzong gave Court Eunuch the right to serve the award.

The powers of the First Affiliate Scholar are the same as the former prime ministers, but they must cooperate with the eunuchs in order to be in charge of the great government, and the emperor will aloof and remote to balance the power of both parties.

But this balance is fragile, because once there is a cabinet chief who cooperates with Court Eunuch, he can control the power and raise the emperor!

Just like Zhang Juzheng in later generations!

But now Zhang Juzheng, it is estimated that even his grandfather has not been born yet!

The emperor, the cabinet and the Court Eunuch group, the three forces started tug-of-war for several decades since Ming Xuanzong, until the first emperor Ming Xiaozong Hongzhi, some changes occurred!

Emperor Hongzhi was a benevolent monarch, who was diligent in administration and loving the people all his life, appointing virtuous officials, and he was the lord of Zhongxing.

Unfortunately, Emperor Hongzhi was too lenient and indirectly allowed the expansion of the cabinet's power. In his later years, the cabinet's power was too heavy and it was hard to return.

When the throne was handed over to Emperor Zhengde, the little emperor found out that there is no him in the world. In fact, it has nothing to do with the major event in the world. The cabinet has the final say. What really happened? The problem was also solved by Zhu Wushi from "Divine Marquis".

The emperor has completely become a mascot. The only role of Emperor Zhengde seems to be to stamp a seal on the imperial edict.

But this right is actually the job of Court Eunuch, the superintendent of the ceremonies!

After Emperor Zhengde succeeded to the throne, he discovered that he had three big mountains on his head!

The first is the cabinet, the second is Divine Marquis Zhu Wushi, and the last is Emperor Zhengde’s mother, the Empress!

It’s ridiculous to say that at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that the group of relatives would grow bigger and set an ancestral motto. The children of the Imperial Family were not allowed to marry with the Aristocratic Family. Therefore, except for Zhu Di, the descendants of the Ming Dynasty The queens are all born as pretty daughters in a humble family.

But this phenomenon changed a little when Emperor Hongzhi took the throne!

Emperor Hongzhi is not close to female sex, and only Empress Zhang is a woman in his life. He has truly accomplished what no one has done since Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

As an emperor, there is only a woman as the queen, who truly adheres to the monogamy system to the end. For the ages, there has been only Emperor Hongzhi!

Sometimes the emperor’s ill-humor is not a good thing.

As a result, the heirs were less selective. When Emperor Hongzhi died, only Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao was the only son, but this son was not fertile yet. Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi’s this lineage was going to be extinct, it was also given to Zhu. Wushi's chance to inherit the position.

Secondly, there is only one queen in the harem. Although the position of the queen is stable, the strength of the foreign relations group has also skyrocketed because no one can compete with it!

The rise of the Queen Mother’s family has made the opposition between the cabinet and the Court Eunuch Group gradually develop into a wrestling force among the three major groups of the Cabinet, Court Eunuch, and Xungui!

To be honest, Lin Li still admires Emperor Zhengde a little bit, a 15-year-old child, facing the old fox of the dynasty, he was able to hold the throne firmly. This can be seen by the political innate talent. .

If Emperor Zhengde was not destined to have no sons, Lin Li would not have thoughts of seizing the throne!

The biggest obstacle for Lin Li to seize the throne is the cabinet. To be precise, it is the courtier headed by Li Dongyang, the chief minister of the cabinet!

Li Dongyang is the Minister of Gu Ming left by Emperor Hongzhi to Zhengde. He is still loyal to the Imperial Family, but unfortunately he has always been wary of Zhu Wushi.

However, Li Dongyang is very old and has a good life in the past few years. Lin Li doesn't worry much about him. The real powerful person is Yang Tinghe, the cabinet's second assistant.

Yang Tinghe is the teacher of Emperor Zhengde and the firm supporter of the Imperial Family.

In history, after the death of Emperor Zhengde, Yang Tinghe was an absolutely ruthless role in supporting Emperor Jiajing to the throne.

If Lin Li wants to sit on the throne, the first person to deal with is Yang Tinghe.

But this cabinet secretary is very difficult to deal with. Not only does he not make money, but his personal ability is second to none in the entire Great Ming!

Lin Li has sent a large number of spies to monitor Yang Tinghe, trying to find his weak spot, but so far, nothing has been achieved!

Instead, while investigating Yang Tinghe, Lin Li discovered that he had close contacts with "Xing Wang" Zhu Youzhu, but there was nothing illegal in private. It seemed that the two were just ordinary contacts between friends.

"Xing Wang" is the younger brother of Zhu Wushi, and the later Emperor Jiajing is the second son of Xing Wang!

Yang Tinghe chose Jiajing to succeed after Emperor Zhengde's death. It seems that it was not without reason.

Even the death of Emperor Zhengde may be a conspiracy!

In history, Emperor Zhengde died without a problem. It has always been a historical unsolved case. Perhaps there is a terrifying political conspiracy behind it. Lin Li does not know now.

Liquidating the cards in his hand, Lin Li must not support the queen mother, secondly he is not seen by the cabinet, and thirdly he has no heirs.

In this way, it is indeed not an ideal heir to the throne!

Only Lin Li also has advantages. First, Zhu Wushi has been pretending to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic over the years. He has an excellent reputation and is loved by the people.

Secondly, "Dragon Guard Mountain Villa" controls the ten Great General of the frontier fortress. The critical moment is a force that cannot be underestimated.

Thirdly, Zhu Wushi's own bloodline and Emperor Zhengde are the most recent. Once Zhengde has died and has no children, Lin Li will be the first successor.

So put together, Lin Li is not without hope, even hope is still great.

Lin Li is not a person who is waiting to die, he has planned everything well, starting with the eradication of Cao Zhengchun!

This 1st Step is to use Gu Santong to eradicate Cao Zhengchun!
