Chapter 317: Support me, support me, I can’t do it!
Zhu Biao laughed and was not embarrassed about this matter.
I just feel a little headache. My brothers are all famous. If I really want to enforce military discipline, I'm afraid there will be a lot of resistance, but this matter must be done. Although he is the crown prince, he has nothing to do with himself. My brother is not completely relieved either.
Especially involving military power.
Over the years, Lan Yu has made herself wary of King Yan.
Although he has not said anything publicly, he has been deliberately suppressing it in private.
It’s just that in my father’s current layout, the vassal kings in various places are the key to seizing military power from the military generals. It’s not easy for him to intervene, otherwise he would have proposed reducing the military power of the vassal kings.
Xia Zhibai’s suggestion this time was exactly what he wanted.
He needs to use this kind of thing to test the control of the armies by the vassal kings and the loyalty of the armies in various places to the court. He does not want to wait until he takes power in the future and his brother and the generals will oppose him. Although it is unlikely, it must be guarded against.
After all
He will definitely cut down the feudal vassal in the future!
Soon.
He then thought of Xia Zhibai. Since it was Xia Zhibai who proposed it, Xia Zhibai must have a good idea. He subconsciously said: "Someone, go and call Xia Zhibai." As soon as the words were spoken, Zhu Biao waved his hand and said: "Forget it, let's wait a few days."
"You guys go down first."
"I will read a book by myself. If If I really want to ask you, I will ask you.”
Fang Xiaoru and Liu Sanwu looked at each other and said quickly: "I obey the order."
Fang Xiaoru and Liu Sanwu respectfully withdrew, but the sadness between their eyebrows became more intense.
I thought that opening my mouth this time would gain some favor from His Highness, but not only did it not happen, but it made me feel timid. What made them even more uneasy was that Xia Zhibai showed no signs of falling out of favor.
It is even becoming more and more popular.
Xia Zhibai had been weighing on them before, and I'm afraid it will be even worse in the future.
And judging from His Highness's tone, the reason why Your Highness has the idea of rectifying military discipline may have something to do with Xia Zhibai.
But they also had to admit that this was a good suggestion.
It's just difficult to implement.
As a prince, the people in power in the world will definitely seize the military power in their own hands in the future, and will never allow it to fall aside. This will definitely cause conflicts with the vassal kings everywhere.
Because the vassal king is not willing to hand over the military power in his hands, if we can secretly reduce the strength of the vassal king by rectifying military discipline while His Majesty is still there, then His Highness will undoubtedly take power. It will be much smoother, and there will be less resistance to running the country.
Again.
Strict military discipline is of great benefit to the country and the people.
Since ancient times, there have been many ruffians in the military. These people have often oppressed the local area. If we can rectify military discipline and deal with these sergeants who cause trouble to the local area, it can greatly win over the people's support for His Highness, and it can also improve the situation. Boost the morale of the troops.
But.
Who will do it?
Fang Xiaoru glanced at Liu Sanwu and said in a low voice: "Xueshi Liu, what do you think His Highness is thinking? Do you really want to take over the military power of the feudal king?"
Liu Sanwu turned around and looked behind him, and lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness How can I guess what you are thinking?"
"But no matter whether it is true or not, people will think so."
"But as long as it can be done, His Highness will govern the world in the future. There will be less resistance. "
"There are many Huaixi generals in the army today. These people have a high status in the court. To rectify military discipline, it might not be a blow to them. When the rectification is completed, these Huaixi generals will I just don’t dare to be as arrogant and domineering as in the past, so that we, the civil servants, can feel a little more relaxed.”
Fang Xiaoru nodded, and then said in a concentrated voice: "This is the truth."
"But it is so difficult to do it."
"And in addition to the Huaixi generals, there are also a number of vassal kings."
“If you don’t handle it properly, you may get burned. Although Your Highness is not afraid, it will inevitably damage His Highness’s reputation.”
Liu Sanwu shook his head and said with a smile: “Since Your Highness has beaten this How can you give up your idea so easily? Besides, this may not be His Majesty’s intention. We must not underestimate His Majesty. His Majesty’s methods are never simple, but he does not reveal them easily.”
"Things are indeed a bit difficult to handle." "But with His Highness's prestige in the court, if he really wants to do it, do people like Feng Sheng and Lan Yu really dare to be dissatisfied? King Qin, King Yan and other vassal kings really dare to complain to His Highness? Today’s sky belongs to the Ming Dynasty, and His Highness is the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Who dares to disobey?” It is much better than having no discipline.”
“If I really want the world to be healthy, I must get rid of some bad habits.”
"I am optimistic about His Highness's approach."
"I also fully support it."
Fang Xiaoru sneered.
Who can’t say they support you?
But if Liu Sanwu is really arranged, I am afraid that Liu Sanwu will immediately cry for father and mother, complain in all kinds of ways, and suffer from various physical diseases. Now, relying on his age, he knows that His Highness will not Will make things difficult for him, that's why he behaves so righteously.
He was deeply ashamed.
Fang Xiaoru's eyes were uncertain and he said: "From what His Highness just said, it seems that this was proposed by Xia Zhibai."
Liu Sanwu's face darkened and he said: "I don't know."
“But what Xia Zhibai proposed is not surprising.”
“Xia Zhibai is already bold.”
"It's normal to say these things to His Highness."
"It's just that he's not in the south? He hasn't explained to the generals in the army. Why did he suddenly say this? Could it be that when he was in the north before, He encountered unpleasantness, but it never happened. When he went to the south and saw that everyone had forgotten about it, he suddenly got angry? "
" If so, Xia Zhibai can really bear it. "
"But it's a bit too petty."
Liu Sanwu sneered, his eyes full of contempt and disdain.
Fang Xiaoru frowned.
He doesn’t think so.
It’s just that Xia Zhibai’s thoughts are always out of the ordinary. It’s even harder to guess Xia Zhibai’s thoughts, and they can’t do it.
Fang Xiaoru said with a sinister smile: "If it is Xia Zhibai who proposes it, then we can make some recommendations to His Highness and ask Xia Zhibai to go to the north, to those arrogant soldiers and powerful generals, and to the major vassal kings. He must be willing to go to rectify military discipline."
"After all, if he doesn't go, there's no way he can justify it!"
Liu Sanwu also stroked his beard and laughed.
The smile is very satisfying.
It seems that he has foreseen the scene where Xia Zhibai hits a wall and is taught a lesson.
Fang Xiaoru also laughed.
They are happy to see Xia Zhibai deflated.
Moreover, they were sure that Xia Zhibai would be defeated, because the vassal kings of Ming Dynasty were very domineering, and only His Majesty and His Highness could suppress him. Others, such as vassal kings of Ming Dynasty, did not take them seriously at all.
In particular, it involves the right to use troops.
I'm afraid that as soon as this news gets out, some generals will come looking for me.
There are many generals in Yingtian Mansion.
After this small episode, Fang Xiaoru and Liu Sanwu were in a much better mood. They returned to their desks and began the boring and tedious sorting of books.
