Quickly wear "I am the empress"

Not long after the Qin Liangyu incident, news came from the public that the epidemic situation in various places had worsened and had reached a point where it was difficult to control.

Looking at the memorials delivered to his desk, Zhiyu was overwhelmed. The problem of poor grain harvests in various places had not been resolved yet, and now an epidemic had struck.

During this period at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were constant natural disasters and man-made disasters.

Fortunately, she was well prepared. As early as when she first ascended the throne, she asked the imperial doctors to speed up the development of a treatment for the plague.

I think with the ideas she provided, the imperial physician should be able to develop a medicine that is effective against the plague soon...

Not long after the plague broke out, news came from the north that Nurhaci had died of illness.

Upon hearing this news, people in the Ming Dynasty court instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Nurhaci was a powerful enemy to the Ming Dynasty.

Now that he is dead, it is good news for Daming.

However, before the ministers could be happy for long, a shocking piece of news made them dizzy.

Zhiyu issued an edict that she would lead the army in person and take the initiative to attack the Later Jin during Nurhaci's mourning period.

Originally, many ministers were happy to see Zhiyu go to the battlefield.

After all, no one could really accept Zhiyu becoming the emperor.

If she goes to the battlefield and never comes back, it is not impossible for them to appoint a new king in the court.

But what they couldn't accept was that Zhiyu not only wanted to go to the battlefield himself, but also planned to take them, the ministers, with him. This made them very anxious.

They have been officials for so many years, living a life of luxury. If they go to the battlefield, who knows if they can come back.

As soon as Zhiyu issued the decree, a group of ministers stood up and expressed their opposition.

Many old ministers snorted coldly and cursed the new monarch for being confused in their hearts. They were the ministers of the country. If they were not there, how would the state organs function?

However, no matter how much they objected, Zhiyu seemed determined to take everyone to the battlefield.

She declared, "The emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies for the country."

"I am the ruler of a country, and I can go to the battlefield in person. Why don't you dare to do the same?"

"Could it be that all the civil and military officials in the court are inferior to a woman like me?"

"You asked me to call Qin Liangyu back a few days ago, saying that she is a woman and should not lead troops outside to show off."

"Now that I am taking you men to the battlefield, why are you unhappy again?"

After saying that, Zhiyu issued a tough imperial decree, specifically ordering that hundreds of officials, both big and small, be taken to the front line.

royal palace.

Zhu Youjian frowned, and a look of worry appeared on his handsome face.

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"

"Although Nurhaci is dead, his sons are not easy to bully......"

"You are the king, you should stay in the capital, how can you run to the battlefield?"

"Swords have no eyes on the battlefield. What if I hurt you?"

"If anything happens to you, the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos."

Seeing Zhu Youjian so anxious, Zhiyu shook his head calmly and pushed the teacup on the table forward.

"Don't worry, my brother. I have my own plans."

Seeing Zhiyu's calm look, Zhu Youjian sighed heavily and slumped down in the chair in a somewhat decadent manner.

He sighed in his heart, it seemed that the Ming Dynasty was really going to be destroyed in the hands of these brothers and sisters.

Now the treasury is empty, there are powerful enemies outside, rebellion inside, and plague among the people...

It is not a wise move for Eighth Sister to lead the army in person at this time.

And those ministers... After the eighth sister ascended the throne, she killed many court officials. Now those who are left are the pillars of the country.

Take them all to the battlefield. If anything unexpected happens, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed.

Seeing Zhu Youjian's dull eyes and dejected appearance, Zhiyu put down the pen in his hand, looked at him and smiled.

"Brother, have you ever heard of the saying 'one must be put to death before one can survive'?"
