Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Mr. Hu are both old men, and they have a really bad taste.

You clearly knew it in your mind, but you just didn't say it out loud. Just laugh!

Obviously, for these two old men, it was very proud to see the Crown Prince Zhu Biao, who had long been famous for his virtue, asking such a "childish" question.

In other words, the two old men took this opportunity to have some fun.

It was not until Zhu Biao could no longer hold back the shame on his face that Master Hu finally spoke at Zhu Yuanzhang's signal.

"Prince, what you said is bound to happen."

"Nothing special. For matters like the relationship between the monarch and his subjects to be compatible, you have to rely on luck."

"Moreover, no matter how compatible the relationship between the monarch and his subjects is, it can only be achieved through compromise between the two sides."

"For those who can truly achieve the position of prime minister like I did before, and are selfish, you can suppress them with righteousness and then deal with them with all means."

"But what if the prime minister is wholeheartedly for the public good?"

"But his ideas and arrangements for state affairs are different from yours as the emperor. What can you do?"

"Killing him would be a bit too aggressive, but not killing him would be a bit restrictive!"

"Haha, this is actually the normal state between your majesty and this old man!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, only to find that Zhu Yuanzhang nodded as a matter of course.

"What's so strange about that?"

"When Weiyong was the prime minister, he also wanted to do something great, but his ideas were different from ours. Isn't that normal?"

"how?"

"Just because of this, do you think there is something wrong?"

"Besides, why did we abolish the position of Prime Minister and then establish the Cabinet?"

"Isn't it because you've had enough of this kind of shit?"

"Besides, if one person's plan is weak, three people's plan is strong. If we arrange a few more people, they can always be better than one, right?"

“Now it seems okay!”

Mr. Hu nodded as a matter of course.

He supports the cabinet.

This thing is much better than a prime minister position.

After all, the prime minister is just a person. If he is lucky and capable, then the emperor and his ministers will naturally assist each other. But if he is not, then he will be a disaster to the people!

The key point is that behind a prime minister there must be a large group of people standing!

It is certainly extremely difficult to ascend to the position of prime minister, but if the emperor wants to remove the prime minister, he will have to consider many things.

It is better to have a cabinet. They usually help with work, and once you feel something is wrong, replacing one or two of them will not be a big deal.

Logically speaking, that's about it.

But Zhu Biao's stubborn nature was aroused.

Perhaps he was unhappy because Mr. Hu and Mr. Zhu Yuanzhang had just laughed at him, so he turned around and asked impatiently.

"If that's the case, uncle already knows the deep meaning of this, then why do you still want to come up with the idea of ​​ruling by doing nothing?"

"If your uncle arranges this, then doesn't that mean the person you arrange will have more power than the previous prime minister?"

"If someone with evil intentions ascends to this position, wouldn't the entire world be in danger of being overthrown?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and raised his eyebrows at Master Hu, signaling Master Hu to answer quickly.

Obviously, Old Deng not only intended to stand on the shore and watch the fun, but he was also very interested in this issue.

Mr. Hu looked calm.

"This matter is not as simple as the prince thinks. It is not so easy to give up power!"

"First of all, the military power will not be let go, and the military strength will continue to increase!"

"With a vigilant military, the emperor has the ability to overturn the table at any time!"

"Of course, if we really do this, there will be chaos, but at least the government and the law will not be disrupted!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile.

He has a deep understanding of this!

Why could he, the founding emperor, kill people again and again and still keep the country in order?

Isn’t it because his prestige in the army is unattainable, and at the same time there are large armies both inside and outside ready for battle?

You don't know what it tastes like here!

Master Hu didn't care about Zhu Yuanzhang's boasting. Instead, he raised two fingers and continued talking with a smile.

"Secondly, according to my idea, the term of office of the Prime Minister, oh, that is the name I have chosen for this position, is five years!"

There is no wrong version in the 6 book forum!

“The most anyone can stay is two terms, which is ten years.”

"At the end of each year, not only should the court review the work of the year, but also make arrangements for the work of the coming year."

"Especially for the work in the coming year, we have to set corresponding tasks. If we complete them, we will be rewarded, but if we fail to complete them, we will be held accountable."

"If it causes major problems, he might even have to step down early!"

“And when it comes time for the handover every five years, not only will the review be more stringent, but there will also be other competitors who will pick out mistakes!”

"So, the incumbent prime minister must have been working very hard in the past few years, like a donkey pulling a millstone?"

Zhu Yuanzhang and his father were so angry that they couldn't close their mouths.

Zhu Yuanzhang in particular was not only extremely shocked, but his eyes were also shining.

He really liked this method of making his subjects work like slaves.

Although he had no intention of appointing a more powerful prime minister after abolishing the position of prime minister, he seemed to be able to learn a thing or two from this method.

Zhu Biao's eyes also lit up.

It's not anything else, he just thinks that arranging a summary and planning for the next year at the end of each year seems to make sense.

So can I learn from one or two of these?

"Uncle, what's the point of the year-end summary and plan you just mentioned?"

"Also, you just mentioned a five-year term. Why must it be five years? What's the logic behind this?"

"I hope my uncle will give me some advice!"

Master Hu took a sip of tea and then spoke slowly.

"The annual summary is not only a summary and review of the work of the year, but also a way to find out and fill in the gaps."

"The most important thing is that for the emperor and the prime minister, this is an opportunity to let the prefects in various places know how the court has developed this year and how his own jurisdiction has developed."

"At the same time, the most important thing is whether the work in his jurisdiction can keep up with the court's plan for next year!"

"As for why the term is five years, it's because for any long-term plan, you can always see some clues in five years, right?"

"Well, since five years have passed, there must be an explanation."

"In this way, the merits and demerits are laid out in the open, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were delighted to hear this.

This is good!

It's like whipping the officials behind their backs, good!
