Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 274 Long live the Holy Emperor

“I boldly request your Majesty to move!!”

Looking at the chaotic scene below the city, Minister of Military and Aircraft Li Banghua raised his hands and bowed, with a worried look on his brows, and spoke in a sonorous and powerful tone.

This is really dangerous!

The military and civilian households gathered in Sanhe East City are now on the verge of going berserk. If the elites under the Royal Forbidden Army who are responsible for maintaining order fail to deter these people, if something extreme happens, the consequences will be unimaginable. !

Zhu Youxiao proposed to hold a public trial in Sanhe East City, and let the military and civilian households under Sanhe rule participate in the trial. The reason why Li Banghua and Wang Qia strongly opposed it was that they were worried about this happening.

When violations of the law broke out under the Ming Dynasty, especially those that caused anger and resentment, the first thing to do was to find ways to reduce the impact, reduce public opinion, and slowly fade away from the public over time, so that public resentment would not explode directly.

Li Banghua and Wang Qia have been in and out of officialdom for a long time. They have experienced many things in their official positions, and they know what will happen if public dissatisfaction breaks out directly.

"Your Majesty, please move to Sanhe!"

"Your Majesty, the people's grievances have been resolved. Your Majesty's body of gold cannot be put in danger!"

"His Majesty!!"

Zhu Youxiao stood with his hands behind his back, listening to the admonitions of the ministers behind him, but he did not make any movement, just quietly overlooking the city.

"Why should I move?"

After a moment of silence, Zhu Youxiao said in a low voice: "These are the people of the Ming Dynasty, and I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Am I going to leave here just because they want to vent?"

Li Banghua and Wang Qia's heartbeats accelerated a lot.

What does the emperor mean?

How could they not know?

But the scene in front of us is so dangerous. If something unexpected happens, if the emperor is in any danger, it will be a good thing for the country and the people! !

"Look at those people who are usually domineering. It turns out that they are also afraid." Zhu Youxiao's expression was indifferent, his eyes fixed on the wooden platform set up under the city. The treacherous scum who were being escorted knelt on the ground one by one. , some were even scared to the point of peeing, and they showed horrified expressions.

Zhu Youjian, Zhu Yujian, Zhu Changzi and other people, when they heard the emperor say these words, they all followed the emperor's gaze and looked over.

"Water can carry a boat and also capsize it."

Zhu Youxiao said quietly: "If I had listened to you and not chosen to convene today's public trial, once the public dissatisfaction boils over in Sanhe, I'm afraid there will be rebellion everywhere. By then, what they want to do , just rush into the Forbidden City and kill me!”

"Even though their suffering and misery were not caused by me, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, what caused them to be like this was these monsters wearing the official robes of the Ming Dynasty, taking the salary I gave, and eating the imperial food I gave. For My own selfish desires were imposed on them!”

Zhu Youxiao will not leave here, let alone Sanhe. He wants to let the accumulated resentment of the people here be completely released after experiencing this incident.

Otherwise, the foundation of Ming Dynasty's rule would be completely rotten in Sanhe.

There is a long way to go.

After saying this, Zhu Youxiao felt a different emotion in his heart. This was just Sanhe, but how many Sanhes in the Ming Dynasty were in this situation?

Zhu Youxiao didn't know.

But Zhu Youxiao knew one thing clearly. If he didn't do something and didn't let Ming Dynasty truly change, then the fate of the country's overthrow would not be changed.

Even if he tried his best to suppress the Jianlu rebellion, suppress the Tusi rebellion, and put an end to the Mongolian and Tatar invaders, once a wave of uprisings occurs under the Ming Dynasty, all of it will be in vain...

Time passed by minute by minute.

Li Banghua, Wang Qia and other ministers who accompanied him, Zhu Youjian, Zhu Yujian and other vassals of the Zhu family, Wei Shitai and other serving nobles, saw the surging crowd below the city, and many people had different emotions in their hearts.

Like fear.

Seems worried.

All in all, it is very complicated and cannot be described in specific words.

These usually docile lower-class people would actually explode in such a way, which seemed completely different from what they had seen and heard.

"Everyone be quiet!!"

Zhang Qingzhen, whose voice had become hoarse, stood on the wooden platform, looked at the temporarily suppressed Sanhe military and civilian households, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Your Majesty's decree is to let those who have been wronged come forward to accuse one by one. Your Majesty will You are making such a fuss in the city, how can your majesty defend you?"

The warriors under the wooden platform shouted loudly, so that all the families of the military and civilians in Sanhe, who had been suppressed for the time being, could hear.

As for the warriors responsible for maintaining order, although they were exhausted, they did not dare to slack off at all. The scenes that had just happened had already made them feel scared in their hearts.

"Your Majesty said that as long as the charges against these treacherous scumbags are proven, none of them will be able to fucking run away. It's all up to you to decide whether it's Ling Chi, skinning, beheading, or cutting in half!!"

"Your Majesty said that these treacherous scum are squeezing your blood and sweat. After the inspection, the imperial court will distribute relief food and wages in Sanhe!!"

"His Majesty said..."

Gradually, the expressions of the crowd gathered in Sanhe East City all changed. At some point, heads were raised in one place.

"Long live!!!"

Someone in the crowd cried and shouted, followed by chaotic sounds.

"Long live His Majesty Qingtian!!"

"Long live!!"

"Long live the Holy Emperor!!"

Zhu Youxiao stood with his hands behind his hands, overlooking the crowds of people in the city. As some people began to kneel on the ground, more and more people followed suit.

These are the people of Ming Dynasty.

In fact, what they want is not much, as long as it can give them a hope, even if this hope is mixed with other things, as long as it allows them to live with hope, then they will not rebel!

Zhu Youxiao's thoughts were very complicated.

What did he really do in this matter?

In fact, if we really look into it, there is no such thing.

The reason why he wanted to arrest those treacherous and scumbags was actually selfish. He didn't want any trouble in the rear, and he didn't want the foundation of Ming Dynasty's rule to continue to be destroyed.

Even the public trial that he clearly planned to convene has not actually taken place until now, but the military and civilian households gathered under the city became grateful one by one.

Just because the military and civilian families in Sanhe who had been oppressed and exploited finally saw hope for the first time, and how many people had been hoping for this to happen for countless days and nights.

"The decree is passed and the public trial is officially held."

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Youxiao said with a complicated expression: "Anyone who has a grievance can stand up and seek justice. I will make the decision for them!"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

Lu Jiude hurriedly bowed and responded.
