The next morning, Zhang Shize, who was dressed in neatly, was hesitant at Yongding Gate and kept looking back, as if waiting for someone.

But at all, no one he had to wait for appeared at the city gate.

Since her long talk with her father last night, Zhang Shize no longer thinks this is a good job, which is a huge challenge for the British Duke.

"Little Duke, are you leaving?"

This is the third time that the servants in the mansion asked.

Zhang Shize stared at the city gate for a while before turning around and saying:

"Let's go, but don't call me a little duke again in the future. Just like everyone else, call me a general."

The servant was stunned, nodded subconsciously, and followed behind.

Zhang Weixian did not go to the city gate to see him off because what he should have said had been said last night. How to go in the future depends on himself.

He stood in the overlooking building in the south of the city, looked at Zhang Shize and his servants, turned around and left.

For Zhang Weixian, no matter how much he hides it, it is useless, because someone behind him doesn’t want you to hide it, and this person is the emperor.

It turns out that the emperor today has long known his thoughts, and is using means to force himself to end. It seems that some things can't be controlled by themselves when sitting in this position.

Since that's the case, then it won't hide it, so just stand up and lead the situation.

Of course, we also need to show an attitude to the emperor so that the emperor can know his thoughts. So this time, Zhang Weixian did not return to the mansion or go to the Five Army Governor's Office, but went straight to the Qianqing Palace.

"Master, the British Duke is asking for a visit."

Zhu Youxiao left Kunning Palace shortly after he left, his butt was not hot yet. He just read three memorials, all about local famine in the second half of the fourth year of the Apocalypse.

Hearing Wang Chaofu's words, Zhu Youxiao did not rush to reply. He first made a note on the book about the severe drought in a certain place in Shaanxi, and then said inadvertently:

"Let him come in."

Zhu Youxiao has guessed what Zhang Weixian is doing.

It was himself who forced him to end up. If nothing unexpected happened, he was showing up. The British Duke was pushed to the position of the top nobles in the country, and it was not useless.

If Zhang Weixian insisted on continuing to play soybeans and fiddling with his cleverness as he did in history, Zhu Youxiao would not wait any longer this time.

If Zhu Youxiao could push the British Duke to the position of the head of the honorary and relatives, he could naturally easily suppress them.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't want to do this.

After a moment, Zhang Weixian stepped into the Western Warehouse Pavilion and saw that the emperor was reviewing the memorial, he saluted respectfully, stood beside him and said:

"I will report to Your Majesty. I have come here this time and I have something important to report."

"If there is anything important to the British Duke, you can just say it." After Zhu Youxiao said this, he opened the next memorial.

Seeing that this was the report of the Henan Road Inspection Censor’s report on the discovery of a small plague in Henan, he immediately frowned.

The plague, a great plague that took countless lives in the late Chongzhen period, was coming.

The plague in Henan is very small. The memorial book said that it was suddenly discovered in a village. The department handled it in time and sent many doctors to it. Now it has been successfully pacified.

The memorial also said that the plague only infected hundreds of people in that village, did not spread out, and there were no remains, so the court could rest assured.

But Zhu Youxiao, who is familiar with history, knows that this is just a signal of the beginning.

The greater famine and plague that swept across the Central Plains is moving towards the Ming Dynasty step by step.

Next, locust plague, plague, earthquake, famine and frost, the scale of various disasters was unique since the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao has stepped up the construction of granaries and expanded post roads in various places over the years, so as to deal with disasters in a timely manner.

The food and grass stockpiles stored in various places, sweet potatoes in the capital area, and mountains of gold and silver piled up in the treasury are all means of response.

Now it seems that this kind of emergency means is far from enough.

Just as he was thinking about his future plans, Zhang Weixian's words directly brought Zhu Youxiao back to reality.

"Your Majesty, the Five Army Governor's Office has been established since now, and there has been no real power!"

"It is commonplace for civil and military officials in various places to be humble. I am the Duke of England. I will naturally be clear about the current situation of nobles!"

"Since Your Majesty asked the child to go to Jizhou to rectify the military, why not let the children of nobles in various places who are talented and ambitious to serve the court have a way to lead the army."

Zhu Youxiao looked up at him, then lowered his head and looked through the book, frowned and said:

"What does the British Duke really think? The nobles also have to reimburse the court and lead the army to fight outside?"

"If this is the case, the nobles and the nobles, the young and strong children of ordinary people, must be treated equally, and the military law is dispatched, and the superiors are ordered to be the nobles. Can the nobles really follow the call of a general of ordinary origin?"

Since Zhang Weixian has come, he has made up his mind to end completely. When the emperor asked these words, he cannot hesitate.

He said:

"Your Majesty, I dare not guarantee the rest of the nobles, but my British Duke is the leader of the Beijing camp for the whole time. I had known the current problems of the Beijing camp!"

"Your Majesty also ask me to rectify the capital camp, and I will speak with the facts!"

"Speak with facts?" Zhu Youxiao repeated, raised his head and stared at Zhang Weixian suddenly, and suddenly laughed, "The position of left governor of the Central Army Governor's Office is still the Duke of England now?"

"Then I have an idea. While rectifying the Beijing camp, the Duke of England will rectify the various guards and offices under the Central Army Governor's Office. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Weixian widened his eyes.

Reorganize the Central Army Governor’s Office!

The Central Army Governor's Office led the Central Guards in Beijing, Shence Guards, Guangyang Guards, Yingtian Guards, Heyang Guards, Herma Qianhu Houses, and Fan Mao Qianhu Houses.

He also led dozens of garrisons including Yangzhou Wei, Hezhou Wei, Gaoyou Wei, Huai'an Wei, Zhenhai Wei, Chuzhou Wei, Taicang Wei, Sizhou Wei, Shouzhou Wei, Pizhou Wei, Dahewei and other dozens of garrisons.

The Five Army Governor's Office is very important.

Since Tumu Fort, the emperor's gradual loss of military power was actually the result of the gradual division of the military power of the Five Army Governor's Office being the civil servants and gradually declined.

Now, although Zhu Youxiao used various means, such as establishing the Yongwei Camp and the Jiangnan Daying, forcing the three Jiangnan guards to rebel, he was gradually regaining the military power.

But in the final analysis, Zhu Youxiao still has no direct authority to govern the military power across the country.

The direct responsibility of local military generals is either the local governor or the Ministry of War. Even ordinary ethics, training, and garrison affairs require the hands of civil servants.

This also caused local civil officials to control military generals, creating a situation where civil and nobles and military officials were inferior.

Although Zhu Youxiao has indirectly regained military power by controlling the Ministry of War at this stage, this is not a long-term solution.

This is just a temporary measure. The real way to make the emperors of all dynasties hold military power tightly in the hands of emperors. Now there is only the only way to rebuild Zhu Yuanzhang's Five Army Governor's Office.

Improve the rights of military honors and allow local military generals to obey the emperor directly through the Five Army Governor's Office.

Zhu Youxiao thought not only that he had the military power in his hand, but that the next generation of emperors and the next generation of emperors must firmly hold the military power.
