After looking at Chen Sihai, Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Since you said that, I naturally have no reason to refuse."

"This matter is decided. Go back and hand over the matter of Tongzheng Department, and then go to the internal office with Qu Dalun to establish the tax department!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Sihai was surprised and hurriedly agreed.

After Chen Sihai left, Zhu Youxiao sat on the chair with a little hesitant expression on his face, and at the same time hesitated.

He didn't know if he should do what he wanted to do now.

He sighed softly, and Zhu Youxiao was in a bad mood.

This matter is a bit big, but he hasn't decided whether to do it yet. After all, this matter involves too much, but now is the best time; if he doesn't do it, he may not have such a good opportunity in the future.

After thinking about it, Zhu Youxiao rubbed his temples and said to Chen Hong: "Go and find the Duke of England for me."

"Yes, the emperor." Chen Hong agreed and then blew oil into the soles of his feet and went to find someone.

In fact, what Zhu Youxiao had to do was very simple, that was to set up a yamen similar to the Military Affairs Office and reuse the noble forces; at the same time, it also found something for civil servants to do, so that they would always point the finger at the inside and put some pressure from the outside.

Zhu Youxiao planned to take advantage of this opportunity to give the nobles some rewards and comfort them well. In addition, it can also be regarded as winning over and dividing the nobles.

Next, Chen Sihai and Qu Dalun will definitely find something. These two people are not those who deal with errands, so they will definitely do things well, and then they will find out a large number of illegal things between nobles and relatives, and they will also be severely punished by them.

The purge of nobles and relatives has reached the point where it is imperative.

But just purging and not rewarding will lead to losing people's hearts, everyone below will be panicked, and many things will be difficult to deal with, so we should give some benefits to win over.

This newly established Military Affairs Office is the benefit given by Zhu Youxiao.

But Zhu Youxiao also has some concerns, that is, are the nobles willing to do it?

If the nobles are unwilling to do it, things will become bad, and rushing the ducks to put them on the shelves is not a solution; if they are willing to do it, then it will be much better.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao asked the British Duke, the leader of the military. If the British Duke was willing, there would be no big problems with the nobles and the nobles, otherwise there would be a lot of trouble.

Soon, the British Duke arrived.

The British Duke was in a good mood. Although today's court discussions were not a great success, they also undermined the civil servant's intentions.

I can't succeed, but you can't succeed either. That's what the Duke of England thinks, and now his purpose has basically been achieved.

"I will meet your Majesty." After seeing Zhu Youxiao, Zhang Weixian quickly bowed and said.

"Okay, please don't give me a gift." Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and said with a smile: "I've called me today. I want to discuss something with you and want to hear my advice."

Zhang Weixian was stunned for a moment and said respectfully: "Your Majesty has nothing to do, just give me instructions."

"I want to restore the old system of the Grand Governor's Office and want to hear my dear's opinions." Zhu Youxiao said in a plain tone.

But just such a plain sentence caused a storm in Zhang Weixian's heart.

It’s not because of other things, but just because of the four words of the Grand Governor’s Office.

The so-called Grand Governor's Office was actually established by Emperor Taizu.

It was in the early Ming Dynasty, imitating the Privy Council system of the Song Dynasty, and the central government established the Grand Governor's Office as the highest military organ, which controlled the national army, and had the power to command military command and dispatch military command.

In the 13th year of Hongwu, in order to disperse the military power of the central government and avoid the "harm of the powerful ministers holding troops", the Grand Governor's Office was changed to the Five Army Governor's Office, which had only the power to command military power, and the power to transfer military power to the Ministry of War, and the two powers were separated.

In terms of civil servants, Emperor Taizu abolished the prime minister; in terms of military generals, Emperor Taizu abolished the Grand Governor's Office. It was precisely because of these two policies that Emperor Taizu's power was strengthened.

The yamen of the Grand Governor's Office has only existed for 20 years. It has been more than 200 years since the Ming Dynasty, and no one has mentioned this yamen again.

Everyone knows why this yamen was abolished.

Now His Majesty is actually going to re-establish the Grand Governor's Office?

What did Your Majesty think?

Zhang Weixian knew that His Majesty asked himself at this time, maybe the governor of the Grand Commander's Office would be him. How could this not make him excited?

But Zhang Weixian was also very hesitant because this matter was too big, and he might get hot when he sat on it.

That is really a place to roast on the fire. Could it be that Your Majesty is just testing himself?

But if you test yourself, you don’t have to use the Grand Governor’s Office to try it?

"Today is just a private discussion between the king and the minister. What do you think of your dear friends, but it doesn't matter." Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and said with a smile.

After hearing this, Zhang Weixian said hesitantly: "The Grand Governor's Office that Your Majesty mentioned is the Grand Governor's Office during the Hongwu period?"

After hearing Zhang Weixian’s question, Zhu Youxiao did not speak.

Naturally, it is impossible for me to restore the Grand Governor's Office during the Hongwu period.

When Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the Grand Governor's Office in order to strengthen the imperial power. If he re-established the Grand Governor's Office, it would be like he was driving back.

The reason why the words "Governor's Office" are simply borrowing a name.

The purpose of the establishment of the Grand Chief Governor's Office is to decentralize power from civil servants and take back some of the power from civil servants, especially power in the cabinet.

Zhu Youxiao could not make the Grand Governor's Office another cabinet.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and said, "It's not the Grand Governor's Office."

"What Your Majesty is referring to? Zhang Weixian asked cautiously.

"It's better to say that this is the Grand Governor's Office than to say that it is another cabinet. This cabinet is in charge of military affairs and provides military services for me, and allocates local government offices during wartime to speed up and efficiency. After all, the military situation is like fire, and the current system is too weak and the speed is too slow."

When Zhang Weixian heard Zhu Youxiao say this, he was not disappointed, but was excited.

If it was the original Grand Governor's Office, Zhang Weixian would be really scared.

You know, the first general of the Grand Commander's Office was Zhu Wenzheng, the nephew of Emperor Taizu. It can be said that he had great military achievements, but what ended up in the end?

Incarcerated until death.

The position of the Grand Governor is simply a hot potato. It looks glorious, but it is easy to die if you go up.

I am now the first nobleman of the Ming Dynasty. My family has been passed down for more than 200 years. It can be said that it is extremely honorable and has a very high status. There is no need to accept such a hot potato. If I ruined the family for a great governor, it would really not be possible.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Zhang Weixian did not dare to accept the Grand Commander.

But what Your Majesty said is different. At this time, the Grand Governor's Office and the Cabinet have the same nature.

What was the nature of the cabinet when it was established?

It is just His Majesty’s adviser. To this day, his power is very great.

If the military does this, then the Grand Governor's Office is very powerful. I don't worry about being dealt with in this position, and I can have a lot of power, which is very important.

So Zhang Weixian calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Your Majesty said makes sense. But I think it's a little inappropriate."

"Oh, what is not suitable?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"When you go back to your Majesty, I think it is not appropriate to call the Grand Commander's Office. If you want to call the Grand Commander's Office, it may remind people of the previous Grand Commander's Office."

"But this is a new yamen, and there is no need to use the original name. In the first place, calling a new name can make people feel a new feeling and give the meaning of renewal of everything."

"Second, it is not called the Grand Governor's Office, so as not to let some people have some messy ideas. After all, this was abolished by Emperor Taizu. So I think I can change my name."

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and smiled with interest and said, "Why is my name more suitable?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, since you are a military officer, why not just call it the Staff Office?" Zhang Weixian glanced at Zhu Youxiao and said carefully: "In the late Tang Dynasty, there was a staff officer in the army, but most of them were privately hired by the governor."

"Since His Majesty wants to find some people to be in charge of military affairs, it is better to list them as a permanent member, and choose among all officials who can conquer and fight well, and join the Staff Office as a staff officer."

"This name is simple, and it makes people understand its meaning at the first glance. It also makes people know that this is just a place for His Majesty to advise on military affairs, not a place to command troops."

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian in surprise. He really didn't expect that he could think of this name.

In fact, this name has always been in Zhu Youxiao's heart. Of course, in addition to the Staff Office, Zhu Youxiao has several other names, such as the most direct Military Affairs Office.

However, in comparison, the staff office seems to be more taller.

After thinking about it, Zhu Youxiao said, "In this case, it is called the Staff Office. Since my dear friend has an idea, I will go back and write a presentation and send it to you. Let the monarch and ministers discuss it again."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Weixian quickly agreed.

"Okay, go, this matter should be as soon as possible. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there will always be a result." Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and ordered earnestly.

"Don't worry, your Majesty, I will do it when I go back." Zhang Weixian quickly bowed and said, "I will leave."

Zhang Weixian knew the Ming Dynasty very well. Nowadays, your power depends not on your official position, but on your distance and distance with the emperor.

How did those eunuchs get up?

Isn’t it because they have a good relationship with the emperor? They can meet His Majesty every day and make trouble more convenient than others.

If this staff office can be established, it will be the yamen that followed the king's patriarch.

The reason why the cabinet is powerful is, on the one hand, because it controls the power, and on the other hand, because they are His Majesty’s important officials.

If the Advisory Office could follow His Majesty, although he might not have much power at the beginning, as time goes by, his Majesty has gained more trust, and power will naturally come.

So Zhang Weixian saw this clearly, which is why he denied the name of the Grand Commander's Office and changed it to the General Staff Office.

The name of the Grand Governor's Office is so heartbreaking.

The Staff Office is much more low-key.
