It's not just about punishing corrupt officials; it's also about reducing the number of titles to ease the burden on the court. This is clearly not a bad thing, and Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely support it.

Such a thing should be supported. In fact, in Lao Zhu's opinion, it should be used as an excuse to properly reduce some of the titles of nobility.

After all, the Korean front has just been captured, and many people are waiting to be rewarded. Furthermore, both the Chang and Xu factions are powerful, and their strength should be reduced.

Zhu Yunying's position was secure, so some of his maternal relatives could not become too powerful.

Zhu Yuanzhang is still young and needs some support in the court, but some of his maternal relatives should not be allowed to become too powerful.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be good for Emperor Zhu Yunying, nor would it be good for young Zhu.

Therefore, when it's time to cut back, it should definitely be done. There's no harm in that, and it's something the emperor should do.

This was Zhu Yunying's intention: to use this as an excuse to make a fuss, and to properly sort things out and re-establish the power structure in the court, which was also very necessary.

They discussed some things in detail with Old Zhu. Although Zhu Yunying made most of the decisions, it wasn't a bad thing to have Old Zhu help with the arrangements.

With everything arranged, Old Zhu said with a smile, "Things are settled, can Yin'er come over now?"

Zhu Yunying smiled and shook his head, "We'll just stay with Grandfather and let him tease Wenkun."

Old Zhu smiled and nodded, "Alright, whether it's you or Yin'er, at least one of you, father and son, has to be with us."

Old Zhu's requirements are quite high, but this is also what Old Zhu really thinks.

Zhu Yunying is narcissistic. Old Zhu's doting on Little Zhu is probably just a case of loving the house because of the crow.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Joo Yun-young is the one that Old Master Joo dotes on the most; at least, that's what Joo Yun-young thinks!
