Lord of Demons

Zhu Di's first early court passed very quickly under the pressure of the Supreme Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.There were not many things in the early dynasty, but there was a very important change, like water pouring into a frying pan.It was only because of Zhu Yuanzhang's strong suppression and the secret deterrent effect of Mingjiao that the officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not openly resist. As for what kind of storm was brewing in private, it could not be seen so quickly.

After announcing the decision, there was nothing more important in the early court, and the time was shortened a lot. Not long after Lu Yunxi fed the Persian cat and the yellow lovebird with snacks, Zhu Yuanzhang appeared with his fourth son.

Before Zhu Di came to the throne, Zhu Yuanzhang granted his adult sons kings and released them to build palaces, and the minors also made corresponding arrangements.One is to ensure that Zhu Di's throne is safe, and the other is to prevent conflicts between his sons.Zhu Di is not the eldest son, and there are three older brothers above him, so it is inevitable that there will be estrangement between the brothers.

"Master!" Zhu Di saw Lu Yunxi, his eyes lit up almost reflexively, and he walked over quickly.He still remembered his identity, so he didn't just jump over like he did when he was a child.

"Your Majesty." Lu Yunxi showed a very shallow smile at Zhu Di, and as soon as he raised his hand, he rubbed the back of Zhu Di's head skillfully.In fact, he felt that the top of the head was the most tactile, but it was a pity that the other party had a crown on his head, so he could only settle for the second best.

He originally thought that Zhu Yuanzhang called him this time, which was no different from before, but when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, his mood became serious.

Zhu Yuanzhang is dying.

Just the day before, after Zhu Yuanzhang took the medicine, he was no different from the past, but in just one night, he had...

Lu Yunxi could clearly see that the upper limit of Zhu Yuanzhang's blood bar had been reduced by two-thirds, which he had never seen before.

After the maid and eunuch retreated, Lu Yunxi asked, "Brother Zhu, your body..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand: "I can hold on for half a month at most, so some things need to be resolved within half a month."

The "some things" in Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth refers to the party of Prime Minister Hu Weiyong.

The current bureaucracy in the court basically followed that of the Yuan Dynasty. Among the three provinces, the Zhongshu Province is responsible for handling the government affairs of the world and has the highest status.Its chiefs are the left and right prime ministers, with high positions and weights. Due to the great power of the prime ministers, it is very easy to have conflicts with the emperor, and the current prime minister Hu Weiyong is even more serious.Hu Weiyong's protégés and old officials were all over the court and the public, forming a power group, which seemed to have threatened the imperial power.

As the founding emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang's knowledge and thoughts are naturally extraordinary, and he has already realized the drawbacks of this system.He wanted to take it slowly, but this poisoning incident made him unable to wait any longer.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty had just stabilized for a few years, Hu Weiyong was powerful, and Zhu Di had not yet reached the crown. Zhu Yuanzhang was very worried that Hu Weiyong would follow the example of Cao Cao at the end of the Han Dynasty and coerce the emperor to make the princes.Even with Lu Yunxi's help, it would be difficult for Zhu Di to defeat Hu Weiyong.Lu Yunxi was always the leader of Mingjiao, not the prime minister.So Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to deal with Prime Minister Hu while he was alive.

"Yunxi raised a cat?" Zhu Yuanzhang said casually, "If this cat wants to eat that bird, what will Yunxi do?"

Lu Yunxi said: "Qiuqiu can't."

"This cat... is called Qiuqiu?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with astonishment, apparently he did not expect Lu Yunxi to name the cat such a name.

Lu Yunxi nodded expressionlessly.In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang's guess was correct. Lu Yunxi never thought of naming his pet. The name "Qiuqiu" was originally the name of the cat in the game.

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Zhu Di, who was in stark contrast to Zhu Yuanzhang's speechless appearance, showed his strong ability to accept: "Master, what is the name of that bird?"

Lu Yunxi said: "Lovebird."

"..." Now even Zhu Di was stunned.Such a lingering and pathetic name doesn't match at all with the Lu Dazhu leader who is always cold and paralyzed all day long, okay?

Lu Yunxi reminded slowly: "Brother Zhu sent out all irrelevant people, is it just to discuss Qiuqiu and lovebirds?"

"Of course not." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said, "On the morning of the court, I have announced the abolition of the Central Secretariat, and the establishment of the three divisions of the Ministry of Public Affairs, the Division of the Commander, and the Division of the Procuratorate. For rights, Hu Weiyong had almost no reaction, and his henchmen who jumped out were stopped after I took the opportunity to take down the official position."

Lu Yunxi frowned slightly: "So, brother Zhu thinks they are going to do something?"

A strange smile appeared in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes: "You have been in the palace every day, and they have already made them worry. Just now I abolished Hu Weiyong's position, he should take the risk."

If it wasn't that he didn't have much time, there was no need to rush them to do it.Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care whether he will be infamous in history, he just doesn't want the foundation of the Ming Dynasty to be turbulent.Many officials have been eliminated before, but Hu Weiyong has implicated too many people, rash actions will affect the entire scholarly society, and in serious cases, there may even be turmoil in the court.

It's too late to clean up a little bit, so it will create the illusion that he wants to do things indiscriminately and let the other party take action. In this way, no matter what the other party does, it can be distorted into seeking to usurp the throne.

Lu Yunxi nodded and said, "I understand." He silently lit a series of candles for Hu Weiyong in his heart, and sympathized with Zhu Yuanzhang and his son by the way.One is still a junior high school student, and he has to manage a country; the other is not long in the world, and he has to continue to worry about it, using his last bit of light and heat.

Being an emperor is really not easy.Lu Yunxi sighed.

It was almost evening when Lu Yunxi came out of the palace, and when Lu Yunxi returned to Hefangzhai, there was another eleven or twelve-year-old boy beside Yu Luocha.

The first to know that he was back was the white lovebird flying above Yu Luosha's head.The white bird flew to the side of the yellow bird, and then the two birds began to kiss me completely ignoring the human eyes.

"Yunxi, did you bring the bird and cat back from the palace?" Yu Luocha carefully observed the Persian cat Qiuqiu and Lovebird, "Zhu Yuanzhang gave it to you?"

"I picked it up." Lu Yunxi didn't blink her eyelids, her voice was cold, "Is this your child?"

The child held a sword in his hand and looked at him stubbornly, like a wolf cub that had just left its den.

Yu Luocha immediately denied it and said: "This child was sent by Wang Lianhua, who is said to be the son of Bai Feifei and Shen Lang, nicknamed A Fei."

hooligan?Lu Yunxi was taken aback, could it be that Ah Fei who will be with Li Xunhuan (...) in the future?

He turned around and walked towards the child, raised his hand and rubbed his head skillfully, and said in one go, "Good boy."

hooligan:"……"

Seeing the struggling Ah Fei being easily suppressed by Lu Yunxi, Yu Luocha said that she has become accustomed to it, and that's how her sweetheart touched Zhu Di's head in the first place!

So he continued to explain while watching the play: "After Bai Feifei died, this child has been living with Wang Lianhua. Recently, Wang Lianhua planned to go to sea, and he didn't know when he would come back, so he sent the child here and asked me to help find it. A reliable family to send to foster care."

Overseas is really so attractive, why do both of them like to go overseas?Lu Yunxi thought of Zhou Zhiruo, who had been gone for many years, and couldn't help feeling emotional.

A reliable person... Lu Yunxi's mind flashed, and he said, "How about sending it to Xunhuan?"

Yu Luocha naturally knew that he was talking about Li Xunhuan, the "Little Li Flying Sword" who had been rumored to be "unknown" in recent years. Lu Yunxi also briefly mentioned the origin of it.Although the Li family is a scholarly family, Li Xunhuan's reputation in the world is not small, and his family background is good, so he is a suitable choice.

Lu Yunxi's considerations were one more level than Yu Luocha's.

Li Xunhuan participated in the imperial examination a few years ago. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was still in good health and had a good memory. He was impressed by Li Xunhuan's outstanding appearance and temperament, and appointed him as Tanhua.

According to Li Xunhuan's article, it's okay to nominate once, but Zhu Yuanzhang felt that Li Xunhuan and the word "Tanhua" should be bound together by nature when he first saw Li Xunhuan.Therefore, although Li Xunhuan's treatment is much better than that of the champion, Tanhua is the one with the highest name.

After hearing the news, Li Shuyuan shook his head and sighed softly.His father, he and his son all passed the imperial examinations.

Lu Yunxi used her identity as "Ximen Lu" to comfort him, and then fooled Li Xunhuan to Zhu Di without any trace.Even though Zhu Di was only a minor prince at that time, his magnanimity and vision were extraordinary, otherwise he wouldn't have attracted Li Xun Huan to befriend him.

Today, after Zhu Di ascended the throne, Li Xunhuan will naturally become the new nobleman of the court.This made Li Shuyuan feel relieved, and he resigned and went back to Li Yuan to retire with peace of mind.It was very difficult for the Han people to be officials in the Yuan Dynasty, and they were even more troublesome on weekdays. If they were not careful, they would harm the whole family.If the Ming Dynasty hadn't been established in advance, it is estimated that Li Shuyuan either died in the chaos of the army or died of overwork.

Lu Yunxi also expressed his delight at this.He has acquaintance with Li Shuyuan, Li Xunhuan is naturally his nephew.The few remaining memories of stories related to Xiao Li Feidao made him vigilant. He must keep his good nephew Li Xunhuan away from the scum, so as not to give away all his ancestral property, and brother Shuyuan would have nowhere to retire.

He grew up with Zhu Di, and the Ming Chengzu in history was such a wise monarch, I believe he would not do anything stupid to make Li Xunhuan sad (...) and leave, nor would he watch Li Xunhuan being bullied by scum Regardless.So after leaving Li Xunhuan to Zhu Di to watch over, Lu Yunxi expressed that he felt relieved to go back to Hyundai after patting his ass.

It's just that Zhu Di is the emperor, and it is impossible to pay attention to the private life of his subjects all the time, so at this time, he sent A Fei to be raised by Li Xunhuan. I believe this wolf cub will definitely pay more attention to Li Xunhuan.Lin Xian'er and Lin Guier's are all pink skeletons!
