Your Majesty, I am a person outside the world, so why do you talk nonsense!" Zhang Yuchu seemed so frightened.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, "I didn't ask you to say anything else, just talk about your family! When the initial emperor thought that since he was the beginning, the Qin Dynasty would be in the future for thousands of years, but it ended up dead for two generations... The rest of the dynasties have limited inheritance, but your Tianshi lineage has a long Taoist tradition, which is really amazing! Could it be that there is really a blessing from the gods that will make each generation of you outstanding?"

When Zhang Yu first saw Lao Zhu, he relaxed a lot.

"Your Majesty, I have worshipped Taoist gods for generations. If I can receive protection, it is also favored by heaven. However, if it is said that the Tianshi lineage has talents in every generation, it is an over-reputation. In fact, most Tianshi masters are unknown, otherwise how could the number of Tianshi masters be recorded in history is very small!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly, "You are telling the truth, continue to say, how do you maintain the inheritance of the Tianshi lineage?"

"There are only two things to tell Your Majesty... First, the descendants are smart and capable, and they come out of the mountain to preach and promote the Tao. If the descendants are incompetent, they close the mountain gate and pretend to be profound! Relying on the reputation of their ancestors, as long as they do not cause trouble, there will be no trouble! In short, those who can tolerate must be tolerated, and those who cannot tolerate must also endure!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly and pointed at Zhang Yuchu with his hand, "Why are you saying so badly about your family?"

Zhang Yuchu smiled and drew a circle with his hands, "The great way is invisible, and it cannot tell the difference between high and low. The Tianshi's lineage is not about cooking oil with fire, but about cycles and endless life, such as Tai Chi, which operates well and lasts for generations."

It is really meaningless to talk about illusory things with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhang Yuchu's words are half true and half false!

In fact, the title of Zhang Tianshi is mostly circulated among the people and has not been officially recognized by the official. The first official Zhang Tianshi to be enthroned was Zhang Zongyan, the 36th generation of Tianshi.

Therefore, compared with Yan Shenggong, Zhang Tianshi's foundation is much weaker.

Without official support, it is indeed necessary to pass on it. Even if it is vulgar, it is understandable.

"Work according to the opportunity, wait for the time to move, follow the will of heaven, and live a life..." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, "Your Tianshi's lineage is indeed extraordinary... By the way, there is another point, let's talk about it?"

Zhang Yuchu looked ashamed, "This... Your Majesty asked, I dare not ignore it. Is this the second thing? Don't accept smart people as disciples, so as not to be taken away by the master."

Zhu Yuanzhang grinned, but suddenly felt something was said in his words. He looked at Zhang Yuchu meaningfully and found that the Heavenly Master was drooping his eyelids and said nothing.

Old Zhu pondered for a long time and waved his hand, "You retreat first."

"I obey the order!"

Zhang Yuchu got up and left. In the bedroom, Zhu Yuanzhang sat alone and repeatedly pondered Zhang Yuchu's words.

Although Taoist inheritance is different from that of the royal family.

But there are also similarities.

Take his twenty-six descendants for example, there are loyal and kind, talented and stubborn, cruel and violent, and even disobedient and unfilial... and even the best son may not satisfy him. Not to mention the grandson's generation.

After several generations of inheritance, the emperors of which dynasty are not virtuous and foolish. Moreover, based on the experience of previous dynasties, the probability of a bastard emperor is far higher than that of a wise monarch and holy lord.

Having said that, aren’t you going to have a country and a country if your descendants are not worthy of?

No!

Whether it is good or bad, this country must be in the hands of the old Zhu family. This is the premise!

As for the second point Zhang Yuchu said, they can keep their smart children out of the door, but the emperor cannot!

All the affairs of the Ming Dynasty were ultimately attributed to the emperor alone, and he had no place to hide if he wanted to escape! Of course, he could also restore the prime minister. At that time, Hu Weiyong stole many government affairs that Lao Zhu had handled, and the emperor became a puppet... As a result, Zhu Yuanzhang killed Hu Weiyong in anger, and even deposed the prime minister!

The emperor cannot avoid responsibility, but must be more careful of being undermined. Who can undermine the emperor?

Two words: Powerful minister!

Who is the powerful minister?

The former Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang... these two people have been dealt with.

Among the remaining ministers, there is no real powerful minister, but there is a rising brat! His influence, his means, and his strength... are only one step away from the powerful minister!

Yunwen, this child, is really too weak.

Zhu Yuanzhang was sad to find that Zhu Yunwen only had Zhu Biao's form, but no Zhu Biao's spirit... and he was even more timid and timid, mean and ungrateful, and had no responsibility at all. He was really not a suitable candidate for the crown prince.

Because of Zhu Yunwen's performance at his son's funeral, he hurriedly decided to make him the crown prince. Now it seems that he is really not considering it.

With Zhu Yunwen's shoulders, he could not bear the Ming Dynasty's territory, so he had to change someone!

Old Zhu gradually made up his mind...but the question is, now if Zhu Yunwen is replaced, who will choose to be the new crown prince?

No matter who he chose, Liu Chun led the civil and military officials and abolished a crown prince!

After this battle, people will completely ignore Liu Chun's lack of age and qualifications and regard him as a real powerful minister!

Moreover, with Liu Chun's prestige, even his strongest son will be controlled by others and become a puppet in Liu Chun's hands... In any case, he cannot look at the Zhu family's country and let Liu Chun be the leader.

Things have developed to this point, and getting rid of Liu Chun has almost become an inevitable choice.

The abominable problem is that if Liu Chun is abolished, the reform will be lost... This reform is really tempting. As long as it is completed, the Ming Dynasty will be able to last forever!

At these times, Zhu Yuanzhang did not come forward much, but he was not idle either. He studied the proposals of the reformists in detail, especially the reform of the fiscal and taxation system.

Lao Zhu also had to admit that he thought it was too simple at the beginning.

It seems to solve one disadvantage, but in fact it creates several bigger disadvantages... This time the problem with Taicang is related to the grain chief system.

Do you want to reform?

Of course!

Who can reform?

Liu Chun!

There is no one else except him!

"Baby! Babies! You know I can't kill you, so you jump out and embarrass me, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he cursed.

Fortunately, Liu Chun was not here, otherwise he would have to be unlucky.

Lao Zhu walked around the hall... He gradually figured out the solution.

First of all, he wants to replace the crown prince!

In view of the last negligence, this time we must be more cautious and choose a qualified king to continue our great cause... God has not left himself much time, so we must never make mistakes again.

Secondly, this crown prince must have enough ability to suppress all parties... Therefore, he must give the future crown prince the opportunity to experience, so that he can make achievements and gain recognition from all parties.

As for the third item, it is actually more important than the first two items. Liu Chun can’t keep it anymore!

Don't get me wrong, it's not that I want to kill Liu Chun.

Instead, I can't stay in the capital.

If he keeps struggling, the new king has no way to control the constraints.

So... I want to send you a favor to the distance... Let you get out of the capital first. When I die, the new king ascends the throne and brings you back with one decree.

You kid has received great kindness from the new king, so you can only do things for my Zhu family obediently.

Lao Zhu simply wanted to give himself two thumbs up. Such a good way, the best of both worlds, just do it!

After making up his mind, Lao Zhu was a little reluctant to leave.

To be honest, this kid Liu Chun is really good at doing things. With him, he can save too much effort. Getting him away is like breaking one arm!

But it seems that there is no better way. If you keep breaking down, you will suffer the chaos!

"Where is Liu Chun?"

The old eunuch hurriedly said, "When the emperor says, Liu Chun will see you outside! Should you let him in immediately?"

"No, don't ask him to come in... I'll draft an order immediately."

The old eunuch was all jumped. How long has it been? Liu Chun always met as soon as he wanted to see him and never turned him out. What's wrong with His Majesty? He doesn't want to see Lord Liu anymore?

Is something going on with Lord Liu?

The old eunuch complained secretly that he was also a member of Pixiu Guard. Although Pixiu Guard was abandoned, his relationship with Liu Chun was still there. God blessed me, don't let Lord Liu get into trouble.

He secretly prayed and delivered the will to Lao Zhu. This time, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't use anyone else, so he simply wrote it himself.

"The young prince Liu Chun is a role model for others. He is not strict in teaching and violates the teacher's teaching. It is all because he is at a high position and lacks experience... I am heartbroken and have no choice but to demote you to the Chief Secretary of the Yongchang Weiyi in Yunnan. I hope you can deeply understand my intentions, study and think about your mistakes, cultivate your character, and wait until the next day, and you may have another opportunity to serve the country... The decree will be set off immediately after three days, and you must not stay and be delayed. I respect this!"

After finishing writing, Lao Zhu hesitated for a while, grabbed the jade seal seized from the Northern Yuan Dynasty and printed it hard on it.

"Take it! I'll send an order quickly! Don't let me pay attention!" Old Zhu felt a little guilty.

The old eunuch doesn’t know what to say, Your Majesty, are you going to change it or not? Isn’t this embarrassing us?

He turned around step by step, but Zhu Yuanzhang was in deep thought with the jade seal... It seems that it is not easy for the emperor!

The old eunuch hurriedly left the palace and went to pass the imperial edict.

Otherwise, there is no secret in this capital city. Before the old eunuch could wait for the Liu Mansion, the news spread... His Majesty dismissed Liu Chun!

The young master of the prince was driven to Yunnan and became the postmaster!

What is a big ups and downs?

Liu Chun perfectly interprets these four words.

He became an official from Daning, served as the Imperial College Office, the Prince of Washema, and served as the commander of the Jinyiwei. He was given the title of Prince's Young Master, and became the rank of the highest-level civil servant.

The speed is so fast that it is unprecedented, it is very rare.

But compared to the speed of promotion, Liu Chun's unlucky speed was even more amazing... He ordered the world in the first half of the day and threatened the crown prince. In the second half of the day, he was demoted to Yunnan and served as the postmaster.

Is this life really hard to describe?

Speaking of which, who is the most happy Liu Chun is dismissed from office, is the people from the East Palace.

After hearing this, Zhu Yunwen sat for a while and suddenly rushed to Huang Zicheng's duty room. He kept bowing to Mr. Huang and cried, "Sir, your trick has saved me... The emperor's grandfather demoted Liu Chun!"
