After all the ministers had retreated, Liang Qingbiao, Minister of the Household Department, was at the end.

Zhu Tao asked him helplessly.

"Master Liang, you are walking so slowly, is there something you want to tell me, if there is something, it's okay to say it."

In fact, Liang Qingbiao hit a soft nail just now, but he didn't want to give up. After all, Zhu Tao's power to appoint and remove officials below the fourth rank is too tempting.

"That's right, my lord, even though you said that just now, I don't think it's a self-serving business. My younger nephews are quite outstanding. As long as you can promote them, they will definitely do things for you."

In fact, what Liang Qingbiao said was too cryptic. What Liang Qingbiao wanted to express was that as long as you promoted my nephews, they would become your disciples and be used by you.

But this kind of words can only be hinted, but cannot be said explicitly, otherwise it will be charged with forming a party.

Liang Qingbiao was afraid that Zhu Tao was too young to know these ways of officialdom, so he wanted to give him some advice.

But he really misunderstood Zhu Tao. People who can be named county kings with different surnames basically have good brains.

Zhu Tao just glanced at Liang Qingbiao, and then said something lightly.

"Master Liang, I'll remember what you said. If I have time, I'll definitely have a good chat with my father. How about letting him taste what you said?"

It's just such a fluffy sentence, which almost scared the minister of the household department out of his wits.

If this word reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears, let alone dismissal from office, even cutting off the head would be expected.

This Liang Shangshu slapped himself twice before speaking.

"Stop joking with me, don't talk about running an official for your nephew, I can hardly keep my own head."

Zhu Tao looked at him seriously and asked.

"If I say this is a joke, can you laugh? Is there anything else, if it's okay, go back."

Liang Qingbiao knew in his heart that Zhu Tao was giving him a break, so he quickly got off the donkey. He bowed to Zhu Tao, then turned and left quickly.

After Liang Shangshu left, there was a sudden burst of laughter in the room, and an old monk came out from inside.

"Such a conspiracy, some people may be able to see it, but no one can decipher it. The only thing comparable to it is probably the Tweeting Order from Emperor Wu's time."

This old monk is Yao Guangxiao, he has been listening in the room for a long time.

When it comes to conspiracies and tricks, he is very confident. Even Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang can't surpass him when compared with him.

However, Zhu Tao's trick is really impossible to decipher. It should be regarded as a poisonous trick, an extreme conspiracy, but when the conspiracy reaches its peak, it will naturally become an overt conspiracy.

People of insight in the Northern Yuan court may not be able to see such a strategy, but even if they can.There is no way to stop it.

After all, the nobles of the Northern Yuan Dynasty could no longer control the needs of the people at the bottom to trade with the Ming Dynasty.

However, Yao Guangxiao compared this strategy with the Tweeting Order of the Han Dynasty, which made Zhu Tao a little depressed.

Zhu Tao glared at Yao Guangxiao, and said to him helplessly.

"You old monk, you are a monk yourself, to curse other people's life and family, you really have poison in your mouth."

But Yao Guangxiao said with a smile.

"The benefactor must not misunderstand, the poor monk is just talking about the facts, but he doesn't mean to compare you with the father Yan."

Zhu Tao didn't want to keep talking about this topic, he felt that Yao Guangxiao was indeed a talent, and he had strongly recommended it to Prince Zhu Biao.

Some wondered that when Zhu Yuanzhang and the other ministers arrived, Yao Guangxiao was already in the house, why didn't he come out to meet each other, and let himself recommend him for a job.

"Old monk, do you think that a conspirator like yourself is shameful, so you don't want to come out to meet people? Just now my father and Liubu Jiuqing were here. I wanted to recommend you. The third-rank servant is no problem."

Yao Guangxiao just smiled lightly and said to Zhu Tao.

"It's not that the old monk doesn't want to come out, it's just that it's not suitable to come out at this moment, and there will definitely be opportunities in the future."

In fact, what Zhu Tao felt more gratified was that since his identity changed, many people have also changed towards him.

From the fact that an ordinary owner of Zhujiazhuang was conferred the title of Lord Protector and King of Dingyuan, it was too late for how many people wanted to curry favor.

But the old monk in front of him didn't care about it, and treated him like he used to, which made him look at him with admiration.

"Old monk, you really think too much, what's wrong with this, I think now is the most suitable opportunity, but you missed it."

Yao Guangxiao shook his head mysteriously and said.

"It's not that I think too much, but that I don't think enough. For example, I have been trying to persuade you to rebel, but you have such a valuable status, and you have been named the king of Dingyuan County. I am afraid that the prince will also Hopeful."

In fact, Yao Guangxiao's ideal in life is to rebel, so when he saw Jin Wang Zhu Yan and Yan Wang Zhu Di, he didn't know their identities, and wanted to persuade them to rebel together.

Especially this Zhu Tao, originally thought that the owner of the villa was too talented and should be the person in power in charge of the government. It would be a pity if he didn't rebel.

But what he didn't expect was that the group of people he wanted to incite to rebel were already in power in the court.

In contrast, I don't know what to do.

Zhu Tao said to him with a smile.

"You old monk, if you don't recite scriptures in the temple, thinking about rebellion every day is your ideal in life. You should have another realistic goal, such as being an abbot or something."

Yao Guangxiao glanced at Zhu Tao firmly, and said.

"I still want to rebel, but it's just that the people who are suitable for rebellion are different. You are not the people I am assisting, so I will just find someone else."

Zhu Tao sighed, this guy is still so firm, he doesn't think there is a problem with his thinking at all.

"Old monk, why don't you run away now? Don't be afraid. I'll report your rebellion to the imperial court. As long as I say something casually, I'm afraid people from Bing Ma Si and the governor's mansion of the five armies will come. Got you."

Yao Guangxiao asked again.

"Why didn't you say it earlier? On the day the emperor's identity was made public, you should have made it clear to him. You didn't say it then, which proves that you won't say it in the future."
