Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

"Your Majesty! Xiong Tingbi is the criminal who destroyed the Liao Dynasty. He caused heavy losses to our country in the Liao Dynasty and encouraged the arrogance of the Jianlu. How can you use such mediocre people again!!"

"Your Majesty! I have gathered at the Meridian Gate to hope that Your Majesty will take back your order and arrest Xiong Tingbi in the Heavenly Prison to await trial. Such treacherous sycophants are not worthy of assisting in the military affairs of the capital!"

"Your Majesty!! You can't do it because of..."

A large number of people were kneeling outside the Meridian Gate. They were wearing various official robes, including green robes and green robes. They were kneeling neatly according to their rank. They were all very excited.

When such a large-scale kowtow appeared, the various personal guards who were on duty at the Meridian Gate all had serious expressions and stood firm at their respective posts.

The sun is high and the ground outside the Meridian Gate is slightly hot.

"It's really lively."

At that time, a slightly joking voice sounded on the Meridian Gate Tower. Standing at this height, the crowd kneeling outside the Meridian Gate was clearly visible.

"Your Majesty, this matter must be settled as soon as possible, otherwise it will definitely affect the government and the opposition."

Zhang Weixian, who was slightly out of breath, glanced at the situation downstairs. His expression was very solemn. He bowed to the emperor and said, "After all, the Meridian Gate knocking tower is already..."

"Why calm down?"

Zhu Youxiao, who was standing with his hands behind his hands, looked at the scene in front of him and said with half a smile: "I am lucky that Xiyuan fell into the water and I didn't see what they said, but I just re-activated Xiong Tingbi and wanted to clean up the rotten things." In the capital camp, everyone is dancing and gathering at the Meridian Gate to kowtow at the gate. It’s really a good show.”

This is a bad thing! !

Wei Zhongxian, Liu Ruoyu, Zhang Weixian, Wei Shitai and other people gathered in front of the imperial court. After hearing what the emperor said, they all secretly speculated in their hearts.

Anyone who has stayed in the central court knows that the knocking on the Meridian Gate must be related to the Meridian Royal Staff, because every time the truth about the knocking on the palace is revealed, the emperor will be angered. If the situation changes further, the Royal Staff will often happen!

"Have all the guards arrived at the Meridian Gate?"

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand and patted the female wall, looked down at the crowd gathered below the city, and asked with cold eyes.

"Your Majesty."

Wei Shitai, who was nervous, glanced at Zhang Weixian beside him, then stepped forward to bow and said: "All the honorary guards who entered the palace to perform their duties have arrived at the Meridian Gate..."

"Okay! Then tell me my will."

Zhu Youxiao flicked his robe sleeves and turned around suddenly, "All the military guards will go out of the Meridian Gate immediately, holding sticks to punish these people who are seeking fame and fame. In this special period, if we have to make such a fuss, we must show off." You just want to embarrass me!"

Zhu Youxiao had no good impressions of some people in the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty. They were proficient in gaining fame, speculating, and clinging to the powerful. However, asking them to do something practical was as difficult as climbing to the sky. The Ming Dynasty was destroyed. This is up.

"Think twice, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Weixian's expression changed after hearing this, and he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him: "The Xunwei can't be sent out. Right now, this group of officials and censors from Kedao are gathered at the Meridian Gate to knock on the tower. Before the situation is clear, they rashly use the imperial staff. I'm afraid …”

"What are you afraid of?"

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and asked: "Afraid that the Ming Dynasty will fall? Afraid that I will be criticized by the world? If this is the case, I am still determined to use the imperial staff. I want to see what they are talking about. It’s as hard as the wooden stick held by Xun Wei!”

Zhu Youxiao saw what Zhang Weixian was worried about at a glance.

It is just that he is afraid that things will get serious, and public opinions will spread among the government and the public, saying that he is a fatuous king. After all, once the imperial staff is released, no matter what the real situation is, the reputation of the civil official who is punished will rise, and the reputation of the emperor who issued the decree will fall. In this way, many people with active minds want to touch the imperial staff the most.

As long as he is not beaten to death, his career will be prosperous in the future. The most important point is that the fame gained by risking his life will also bring various benefits.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't care about the so-called reputation.

So what if someone calls me stupid?

If he cannot change the Ming Dynasty, even if he can live well, he will not be able to escape the fate of a subjugated king. Rather than doing that, it is better to throw off these shackles!

"Your Majesty, would you like to summon some officials and censors first?"

Wei Zhongxian hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said: "First understand why they knocked on the que. After all, what the British Duke said is right. If it is really a direct stick, I am afraid that there will be some bad remarks among the people."

Having fought with the Donglin Party members before, Wei Zhongxian was very aware of the moral character of these civil servants.

A civil servant's mouth can kill.

The mouth of a civil servant can cut the heart.

If you dare to offend a civil servant without a good attitude, you may be angry to death.

"Wei Banban."

Zhu Youxiao lifted up the sleeves of his robe, walked to Wei Zhongxian, reached out and tapped the three-mountain hat Wei Zhongxian was wearing, "Who has the final say in this Ming Dynasty?"

"It's the emperor!"

Wei Zhongxian was startled and fell to his knees on the ground.

"It turns out to be me."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and glanced at the people in front of him, "Then what I just said, why didn't anyone get the order to spread it?"

Wherever they looked, everyone lowered their heads.

"This slave will go and deliver the message."

Wei Zhongxian kowtowed in response, and then under Zhu Youxiao's gaze, he stood up and headed down the tower.

Zhu Youxiao drove to the Meridian Gate not because he wanted to see the gang of officials and censors who were knocking on the door, but because he wanted to show a new attitude to the people around him, including Zhang Weixian and the others.

How were the royal rituals established?

Compromise and tolerance are absolutely impossible.

If you want to establish it, you must rely on beatings and killings. Only by doing this, the imperial authority will not dare to be easily offended.

"British Sir, I will have to work hard for you next and sit here at the Meridian Gate."

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian, "As long as they don't retreat on their own, we will keep fighting. Even if the cabinet ministers come, they can't stop."

"The minister obeys the order."

Zhang Weixian, who was in a complicated mood, bowed and responded.

Although he knew that something big would happen, Zhang Weixian could clearly feel that there was a hostility hidden in the emperor's heart. This also made Zhang Weixian clear that no matter how hard he tried to persuade him, he could not change the emperor's mind.

For creating such a farce, I want to see how you continue to sing.

Zhu Youxiao's cold eyes turned to the bottom of the Meridian Gate. At that time, a group of warriors wearing armor and carrying swords rushed out of the Meridian Gate very quickly and ran towards the kneeling officials and censors. This scene Many civil servants were stunned. No one expected that so many people would rush out of the Meridian Gate not long after the ceremony started.

Obviously the emperor knew about this.

"hurry up!"

"Get 'em!!"

Under the bursts of shouts, Zhu Youxiao, who was standing on the Meridian Gate Tower, turned and walked towards the bottom of the city wall. Since he had finished expressing his attitude, there was no need to stay here anymore.

Seeing how these civil servants were beaten, Zhu Youxiao couldn't arouse any interest.

However, Zhu Youxiao knew very well that his reputation would be ruined after this incident, but it seemed that it would not have any impact on him. After all, he never thought about being a benevolent or wise king, he wanted to be a tyrant...
