Qianbulang is the office space of the central government organs in the Ming and Qing dynasties, mainly the office space of various ministries, the Governor's Office of the Five Army and the Nine Ministers. The office is based on the layout of the East and West military officials. The civil servants are in the East and West Qianbulang, and the military officers are in the West Qianbulang. There are 144 rooms on each side, with a total of 288 rooms.

Zhu Hongsan's new dynasty was different from the former Ming Dynasty. He expanded the six ministries to thirteen ministries. With more ministries and commissions, there would be more officials. With more officials, there would be naturally not enough rooms. Therefore, Zhu Hongsan expanded three streets on the basis of the original two auxiliary streets in Qianbulang, which were used to accommodate an increasing number of officials.

Of course, so many officials do not have the opportunity to attend the court meeting. The court stipulates that only officials above the fifth rank can participate in the court meeting in Beijing. The doctors of various ministries, the Yuanwailang, the Censor of the Kedao, the prefect of Shuntian, and the two counties with the capital can all attend the court meeting.

Apart from these other ambassadors in charge of warehouses, the various departments, experiences, Tongzhi, Promoters and other officials in Shuntian Prefecture, these officials have a good grade, but they have no chance to attend court.

Today, officials who did not attend court in various departments came to work in the department as daily, but saw the sedan chairs of the masters at the gate of Chengtian were still there. It seemed that the court meeting had not dispersed. These officials were puzzled, but they didn't take it seriously. However, as the sun rose, the old men who had dispersed early in the past did not come to work today. Some people began to think that something had happened in the palace?

When it was almost noon, a large number of Jinyiwei rushed in from outside Hongwu Gate, one by one, and hurried to Chengtian Gate under the leadership of several thousand households.

This is a major incident. The palace stipulates that no urgent matters are required to walk quickly, so as not to cause any misunderstandings. I have never heard of running forward like today.

Some low-level officials had experienced wars and thought something had happened again when they saw a large number of Jinyiwei entering the palace. They were so scared that they all trembled all over.

The leader of the Jinyiwei was Ding Wei, who was in charge of the security of the palace. He received the emperor's imperial edict and ordered him to lead the two thousand Jinyiwei into the palace quickly. Ding Wei thought something big had happened in the palace, so he was so scared that he let go of everything, so he quickly drew up people and hurried into the palace with these people.

When I passed by Jinshui Bridge and entered Fengtian Gate, I found that the entire Fengtian Palace Square had become a vegetable market. The officials who were originally as sluts cursed and fought each other like roosters!

Ding Wei was relieved when he saw that the emperor on the Golden Platform of Fengtian Palace had nothing to do. He quickly ordered his subordinates to take 300 people to protect the emperor, and then rushed into the square with the remaining hundreds of people to separate the officials who fought together.

Zhu Hongsan was relieved when he saw the reinforcements coming. Today's scene was really dangerous. There were more than 400 civil servants present, and there were less than 200 generals standing guard around him. One scene was that blood was flowing all over the ground. There was no way that Zhu Hongsan had someone to send an order to Ding Wei, asking him to bring people into the palace and suppress these lawless civil servants.

The Jinyiwei is the emperor's slave, but no matter what kind of civil servants you are, you will immediately rush into the crowd after receiving the emperor's orders, kick them with your feet and scabbards, and quickly separate these civil servants.

Seeing that the situation was finally under control, Zhu Hongsan held back and stood up and cursed, "What do you bastards want to do? Do you think I'm easy to bully?"

Today, the civil servants did a bit too much. They fought in groups in front of the emperor, or in front of an emperor who claimed to be the emperor of the ages. This is too disrespectful to Zhu Hong. But these civil servants also held on to one point, that is, the law does not blame the public.

Just now, all the civil officials took action. What can you do? Can you still kill all these civil officials? These civil officials present are all pillars of the court, and the government will be paralyzed immediately after they are killed. The emperor will never do this if he is not crazy.

Zhu Hongsan also knew that there was nothing he could do with these guys, but he was really angry. Zhu Hongsan stood up with the help of Li Chengen and cursed: "Okay, I can't control you, I quit! Whoever the emperor loves, I will be a hooligan when I go back to Wuchang!"

Zhu Hongsan wanted to give up the prostitute, which scared the ministers in the court. It was not that these ministers liked Zhu Hongsan and were reluctant to let Zhu Hongsan go, and they wanted Zhu Hongsan to die quickly and replace Zhu Hai with the more obedient Zhu Hai as the emperor. But if the emperor really quit in this scene today, he would write a big note in history, and forcing the emperor to abdicate, which is only a treacherous minister. These ministers all compare to Xiao He and Zhang Liang, even Wang Meng and Zhuge Liang, have to retreat in front of them. Now, he has to bear the crime of treacherous ministers.

Under the leadership of the chief minister Ma Mingyuan, these ministers knelt in front of the Jintai and shouted loudly to keep the emperor.

Zhu Hai was also frightened by the side. He knew that as long as he showed a happy face, he would be deposed immediately. So when Zhu Hai heard that his father was about to abdicate, he quickly knelt down and cried: "Father, I will not be the prince of Erchen. I will follow my father back to Wuchang Chenghuan!"

Zhu Hai has matured a lot after all political struggles. His loyalty was exchanged for Zhu Hongsan's praise. Zhu Hongsan helped Zhu Hai up and said, "Son, I'm very pleased to say that! Now you have seen all of these ministers. For the sake of their own little interests, they disregarded the court and caused such a ugly thing! What should I do with them?"

Zhu Hai was stunned when he heard Zhu Hongsan say this. What can he say? Let’s deal with these ministers and offend people immediately. You must know that most of these people support him. But if they don’t deal with it, the father’s side will not be able to explain it.

Zhu Hai thought about it and couldn't grit his teeth and said, "Father, these ministers roared at the court, and they should be punished severely, but..." Zhu Hai meant so much, how to punish him? It's better to raise the board high and put it down lightly, and punish him a little.

But I didn't expect that Zhu Hongsan had just finished the first half of the sentence and then said: "Okay, the prince's proposal is very good. These ministers are too unrelated to me. Is I the emperor or are they the emperor? I decided that all the prime ministers in the cabinet will be suspended, and the thirteen ministers will be suspended together and we will go home to participate!"

When Zhu Hai heard that the matter was going big, all the senior officials were wiped out. What should they do if they all went home to do the government?

"Father, these officials are indeed guilty, but they are suspended from office and are waiting to participate in the government affairs?"

Zhu Hongsan sneered: "This is easy to deal with, Chen Mingxia!"

Chen Mingxia, the chief military aircraft of the Military Operations Department, stood beside Zhu Hongsan. He heard the emperor ask him to stand up and bow and said, "Your Majesty, I am here!"

Zhu Hongsan pointed at Chen Mingxia and said, "Chen Mingxia, during the suspension of the cabinet, your Military Affairs Office will be acting in the cabinet. I will add one of your Military Affairs Office positions to the important government affairs and prisons!"

The Military Affairs Office was a military institution at the beginning of Zhu Hongsan's establishment, which was similar to the General Staff Department in later generations. It was mainly responsible for the use of troops, including the number of soldiers, horses, money and grain, the simplification of military officers, the replacement of defense, introduction, name registration, and gifts. However, today Zhu Hongsan added another Senate Government Affairs, which has some cabinet functions.

In fact, Zhu Hongsan had an attempt a few years ago, which was to use the Military Affairs Office to directly give the cabinet an imperial edict, but Ma Mingyuan blamed him. At that time, the country had just ended the war and the political situation was not very stable, so Zhu Hongsan did not go into it in depth.

However, in recent years, with the national wars pacified, production has begun to develop in various places, and the authority of the cabinet has become increasingly important. Now, these lawless civil officials have fought in front of the emperor. Zhu Hongsan could no longer bear it and finally decided to take advantage of this matter to carry the Military Affairs Office to the front desk.

The appearance of the Military Affairs Office in history is similar to the current situation. In the late Kangxi period, because of the Nine Dragons' throne, some ministers in the court took sides and began to fight each other. Emperor Kangxi was deeply troubled by this party struggle in the later period. Therefore, after Yongzheng came to power, he founded such a Military Affairs Office in order to centralize power and weaken the prime minister's power.

The Military Affairs Office was just now appearing, and Yongzheng was also the name of the Northwest War, but the function changed later. The Military Affairs Office gradually overturned the cabinet and became a tool for the emperor to control the government.

The cabinet and prime minister system in the Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty were similar. They were all professional managers. These guys often sang against the emperor in the great principles of serving the country and the people. However, the Military Affairs Office was different. The Military Affairs Office was a military institution at the beginning, and the military was efficient and fast. Therefore, the Military Affairs Ministers all knelt down and took the transcripts and then implemented them according to the emperor's wishes. There was no objection at all.

When Zhu Hongsan became emperor in Guangdong, he also wanted to make things right. Zhu Hongsan came from later generations and knew that the Qing Dynasty was supreme and the system was rigid. Those ministers were bound by the military department and were bound to ask the Qing emperor for everything when they were warring with Britain. Guangdong was thousands of miles away from Beijing. The traffic conditions of the Qing Dynasty at that time were too late to wait until Guangdong officials received the emperor's instructions.

In order to avoid cultivating such rigid and incompetent officials, Zhu Hongsan decided to restart the prime minister system in the Tang and Song dynasties. This system has an advantage, that all officials know what they do, and the emperor is not that important. The victory of the three major battles of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty shows this point, and the generals of the front-line officials dared to take responsibility. However, if they were replaced by Qing officials, it would not work. They had to ask the emperor for instructions on everything, and they had completely become the emperor's puppet. It would be strange if they could do it well.

However, the cabinet prime minister system has thousands of benefits, and only one disadvantage, that is, the party struggles are fierce. Everyone is born into the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, so I don’t have to be a bad person. Why can you be the chief assistant but I can only be the second assistant? Just listen to you? In this way, the gangs and factions will naturally become a mess. The late Wanli period and the Chongzhen period of Tianqi were a good example. Everyone was playing politics, and no one cared about the life or death of the emperor. Therefore, Chongzhen left behind the famous saying "I am not a king who destroyed the country, but all ministers who destroyed the country" after his death.
