Zhu Houzhao discovered that since the Ming Dynasty had a free Japanese district, the whole society had suddenly become much quieter.

There were fewer noisy scholars, and there were also fewer demonstrations.

It seemed as if all the noisy scholars had gone to the Japanese District. Perhaps the disorder in the Japanese District is now making these people realize that it is impossible to achieve a free society that is not controlled by others. Even if they set up their own government offices, they will cause chaos in order due to people's selfishness.

Chen Yiqin, the Minister of Rites, was very sad now. He did not expect that this would be the case in the Japanese district where there was no king and he was elected officials. Now even his son was killed, the criminals were not punished because there were no law and law enforcement people.

"Etiquette cannot be abolished, nor can it be abolished. The chaos in Japan now tells us that in the face of power struggle, you can never think of anything crazy to satisfy your greed. And the reason for all this is that the way of struggle is not a contest between individuals, but a contest between groups, or even an armed group! Otherwise, there would be no assassination and large-scale armed fighting!"

Zhu Houzhao has always taken the heart to see how the Ming Dynasty will take the future. Although he is confused, he has been thinking.

Now, following the mainstream ideas of the gentry class, namely the middle class, i.e. freedom and civil rights, the political pilot results in the Japanese district have inspired Zhu Houzhao. He couldn't help but call his emperor's son Zhu Zailei and the crown prince Zhu Yijian together and held a meeting to decide the future development of the Ming Dynasty in the form of a family gathering.

certainly.

The reason why the family gathering of Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Zailii and Zhu Yiqian can determine the future of the Ming Dynasty is because the Ming Dynasty is still an empire now, and the main wealth and violent organs of the Ming Dynasty are still controlled by their Zhu family.

Therefore, even though the Ming Dynasty generally accepts the values ​​of equality for everyone today, the royal family can still determine everything about this empire.

However, Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Zailei and Zhu Yiqian did not just enjoy and seek most of the interests of the Ming Dynasty and possess most of the power of the Ming Dynasty, nor did they truly regard the entire empire as their own private property, but they still regard themselves as a member of the entire Chinese civilization and as one of all the Han people.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao and his sons and grandsons have been thinking about how to make the Ming Dynasty better and make this peaceful and prosperous era last longer, rather than just thinking about how their royal family can have more social wealth and how to become the master of everyone more lastingly. After all, with the development of science, materialist ideas have become more and more common, and it is difficult for the royal family to say that they are descendants of God to enslave the people of the world. Even if they still preach to the people of the world, they must be descendants of God who can bring the gospel in the world. After all, people believe that God is kind and kind, and only the devil is cruel and greedy.

"So, if our Ming Dynasty wants the people to truly achieve the dominance of the Ming Dynasty and to truly achieve the goal of harmony and equal wealth, we cannot have multiple groups with violent armed forces, as this will only cause melee, but grouping is human nature. After all, people are crowded, so we cannot eliminate the existence of groups; the only thing we can do is to separate the violent organs, that is, the soldiers of the court, from these groups, and all social parties cannot have an army!"

After Zhu Houzhao said this, Emperor Zhu Zailei couldn't help but say: "But, father, now the sergeant officers and officers of the court are members of the Loyalty Society."

"Yes, this is also my last resort to control military power, concentrate power, and carry out reforms. If it weren't for the Loyalty of the Lord, I would not be able to curb the power of the civil servants and gentry who had dared to abolish the emperor."

After Zhu Houzhao said, Zhu Zailei said again: "But the Zhongjun Society is different from the Zhongjun Society built by his father back then. Now the members have already exceeded tens of millions, and there are people from all walks of life, most of them are rich. Moreover, most of the members are not pure members, and there are even those who do not believe in them, and even the most reactionary. They are of varying quality, and they are all just to be promoted and make money."

"I have also discovered this phenomenon, so it can be said that the Zhongjun Society has been in name only. Therefore, I decided that we can ban the Zhongjun Society and abolish all the social organizations of the Guards and Border Guards. In short, it is to make the army independent of the government."

After Zhu Houzhao said this, Zhu Yiqian hurriedly stood up and said, "Grandpa, no! Although the Zhongjun Society is different from before, it is not all hypocritical people. There are also people who really believe in this, and even a large number of people. If they are directly abolished, such people may fall into despair. The grandson believes that the Zhongjun Society has become like this, which is not the fault of the Zhongjun Society's philosophy, but the different pursuits of people."

"So, my grandson suggested not to ban it, but to reorganize it. After all, it is no longer appropriate to ask all the people in the world to regard the king as the ruler, and even our royal family itself does not believe it. Therefore, my grandson believed that it could be changed to the Zhongguo Society and directly and clearly proposed that this society should take the world as the public as the ideal, that is, to pursue the purpose of public ownership of power and the people being rich."

Zhu Houzhao also thought that Zhu Yeqian said this, and he also thought that if the Zhongjun Society was abolished, it would be equivalent to making all the people in the world who rely on the Zhongjun Society to gain power and interests lose the basis for protecting their status, which would definitely cause dissatisfaction among millions or even tens of millions of people.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao agreed with Zhu Yijian's point of view: "Then let's reorganize. Among the high-ranking officials of the court, who are still the ones who truly regard the world as their public as their ideals?"

"My grandson knew that the second assistant Zhang Juzheng really believed in this, and had published such articles in the Huangming Pao many times. Although many people scolded him for his official words, his grandson knew that Zhang Juzheng really thought so. He also advocated that the court prohibits the establishment of academies by the people, prohibits students from discussing matters, and hopes that the court will strengthen its control over culture. These claims are very contrary to those officials in Jiangnan who pursued the return of power to the people."

After Zhu Yijian said this, Zhu Houzhao also felt that Zhang Juzheng should really regard the world as his public as his ideal: "Since that's the case, you and Zhang Juzheng will reorganize the company. I can see that you should also believe in this."

As he said that, Zhu Houzhao said again: "But the military power still belongs to the people of the world, so the Privy Council abolished the General Political Department, and all officers and soldiers either retired or gave up their status as a community."

"The grandson is obeying the emperor's will! I wonder what the father thinks?" Zhu Yijian looked at Zhu Zailii.

"Since it was your emperor's instructions, you should go directly to Zhang Juzheng to do this. Remember to be cautious and carefully distinguish. In the future, if you become the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, whether you can continue to let the Ming Dynasty develop according to your own will depends entirely on whether your new club is really for the public and the people."

Zhu Zailei said with a smile.

Zhu Houzhao also smiled and said to Zhu Yijian: "You don't have to worry too much. You can leave it to Zhang Juzheng directly. From my perspective, no matter what the Ming Dynasty will become, our royal family will continue to be rich. With your Taizu's world-class merits in expelling the Tartars and rebuilding China, with the glorious and prosperous era I created and the dignity of giving them true humanity, the people of the world no longer regard the royal family as their masters, but will not regard it as an enemy, but will only regard it as a symbol of national peace and harmony, and will respect and treat it well for all generations."

Zhu Yijian agreed.

A royal family gathering ended like this, but after this gathering, both Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Zailei, the two people with the greatest power in the Ming Empire, have clarified the future direction of the Ming Dynasty.

However, Zhu Houzhao did not let Zhu Zailiei and Zhu Yijian inform the world of this because it was just their own idea.

Of course, reorganization does not mean that reorganization can be reorganized just by reorganization, because most people are actually not sure whether they believe it or not. Most people are confused.

Therefore, when Zhu Yijian started to do this, many people began to think about whether they believed it or not, and even worried that if they said they did not believe it would affect their career. Therefore, even though they were confused, most of them said they believed it.

Even when Zhu Yiqian and Zhang Juzheng were having a conversation, a conflict occurred.

"Mr. Zhang, I have something to tell you. The Supreme Emperor intends to reorganize the Zhongjun Society. I suggest you let you take charge of this matter..."

After hearing Zhu Yi bracelet convey Zhu Houzhao's meaning, Zhang Juzheng was also shocked because he did not expect that the Supreme Emperor would make such a decision.

At this time, Zhang Juzheng asked Zhu Yijian in confusion: "I dare to ask the Crown Prince, what does the Supreme Emperor mean? Why should the good loyalty society be reorganized? Is it wrong for the world to be the public?"

"Mr. Zhang misunderstood, not because it is a question of whether it is right or wrong, but some people do not think that the world should be public, so now they need to exclude these people. Of course, this does not affect their status in the secular world, but they can no longer engage in military positions."

After Zhu Yijian said this, Zhang Juzheng stood up and bowed to Zhu Yijian seriously: "Your Highness, please forgive me for your own words. Those who dare not think that the world is a public servant will not take the world as their own responsibility. If such people are officials, they must be corrupt officials, and if they follow business, they must be a tyrant businessman. If they study, they must be deceived and robbed the world. They should be punished directly! Why should they still retain their status?!"

After Zhang Juzheng's retort, Zhu Yijian didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, he said: "Mr. Zhang, even if he has different beliefs, there is no need to be incompatible. After all, whether it is a corrupt official, a profiteer, or a villain who deceives the world and steals his reputation, if he is punished, it is because he violates the law, not because he has different beliefs."

"This is not a matter of different beliefs, it is a matter of big trouble. In other words, Zhang believes that the Ming Dynasty can only have one belief, that is, the world is for the public!"

Zhang Juzheng said excitedly.

Zhu Yijian had to ask again: "You know this person, He Xinyin, this person put forward the view that there is no monarch and no father, but the father, and he directly said that he did not believe in the idea of ​​loyalty to the monarch and society, and only believed in himself. Do you think this person should be killed?"

"This man instigated the powerful to resist taxes, discussed the affairs of the world, and even supported the chieftains to refuse the kingdom. The court should have killed this man long ago!"

Zhang Juzheng's words surprised Zhu Yijian: "But he is a great scholar after all, and he is quite famous in Thai studies and has never violated the law. It is different from our beliefs."

"Your Highness! I am willing to take the blame! I have different views from you in this regard, so there is no need to continue talking! Your Highness does not think that He Xinyin deserves to die because he has not committed the crime of dying; however, I think that he deserves to die because his beliefs are different from truth. Those who are different from truth are those who are stupid or have secretly evil intentions and must be killed!"

"However, since Your Highness is passing on the will of the Supreme Emperor, I obey the order! But I still ask Your Highness to tell the Supreme Emperor that those who have different beliefs would rather handle it strictly than tolerate the evildoer!"

Zhang Juzheng said.

"That's what he said?"

After Zhu Houzhao found out about Zhu Yijian, he was also quite surprised. He did not expect Zhang Juzheng to react like this.

Zhu Yijian nodded: "Sun'er didn't expect Mr. Zhang to have such a big difference with Erchen in this regard."

"Forget it, since Zhang Juzheng has agreed to reorganize the Zhongjun Society according to the will of our royal family, as for what he thinks, he doesn't need to worry about it. We just do what we think is right, and let the rest be judged by history."

Zhu Houzhao can only say this now, and he also found out from this that even if they are really different from each other, even if they have the same beliefs, they still have different handling of certain things. Some are extreme and some are gentle.

Although Zhang Juzheng still acted according to Zhu Houzhao's will and did not give different treatment to those who no longer believed in the concept of the loyalty to the kingdom, the effect was not obvious in the internal affairs system and the entire society. No few people chose to withdraw, but the people who quit the most were the people in the army.

Because in order to save their military posts, officers can only give up their position in the political and ideological field.

"Uncle, the matter given to you by the Supreme Emperor is obviously not good enough. In the court, those who are loyal and loyal to the country like Mr. Tan and Mr. Yang have to retreat. However, Mr. Chen, the principal of the clan who is close friends with He Xinyin, did not retreat."

Gao Gong knew that the Supreme Emperor Zhu Houzhao was still a little dissatisfied with the reorganization of the Zhongjun Society to Zhang Juzheng, so he couldn't help but ridicule it at this time.

Zhang Juzheng replied directly: "The Supreme Emperor has its own reason to do this. Zhang believes that even if Mr. Tan and Mr. Yang retreated from the society, they only have the country in their hearts, and it is still as if they have not retreated."

"Uncle's words are reasonable, but the sudden action of the Supreme Emperor's sudden actions also show that there are indeed impure people in the court, otherwise the Zhongjun Society would not be reorganized. Therefore, Gao believes that the few people in our Political Consultative Office should carefully identify them in the future to see who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the first to be the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is now in the position of Governor Yingtian for a long time, so he should be promoted!"

Gao Gong said.

"Yes, Hai Rui should be promoted, Yuan Fu's words are reasonable!" Liu Tiqian, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, agreed.

"I think Hai Rui was indeed promoted, and the court could not make the ministers of the politeness and justice always stayed in the place as the shepherd guard!" Wan Shi, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, also agreed.

"It just so happened that Yang Lin, the left censor of the Censorate, retreated because of his age. Now, Hai Rui should be promoted. With Hai Rui in charge of the General Constitution, it will inevitably make the sea peaceful and the rivers clear," Zhu Heng, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, also agreed.

Zhang Juzheng didn't know that this matter was related to Hai Rui's affairs, but he had to admit that there were few people who were truly worthy of staying in the society.
