Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

The snow keeps falling.

The earth is covered with silver, the cold wind is howling, and the scenery of the North is fully displayed. On the snow, a long team is slowly moving forward.

"Hey, yo~"

"Da da~"

There were endless sounds in the world, and a depressing atmosphere filled the advancing team. Even though the cold wind kept blowing, the team kept moving forward.

"Do you know why I want to issue an edict?"

Zhu Youxiao, who was at the core of the team and was sitting by the window, looked at the crowd outside the window through the wooden window. His expression showed no joy or sadness.

Ok?

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian, who were sitting together in the imperial chariot, subconsciously turned to look at each other after hearing what their royal brother/emperor said, with a little doubt between their brows.

When Yujia was stationed in Shimen Town, he was assassinated by a so-called mutinous team. After the imperial edict was urgently delivered to all places, Yujia stayed in Shimen Town for several days. During this period, no one else could get close to him unless he was specially summoned by the emperor. In front of the emperor, it is precisely because of this that a depressing atmosphere always hangs over everyone's heart.

The emperor's imperial chariots were assassinated one after another. This was a shocking thing in the Ming Dynasty, where the imperial power was authoritarian. This meant that the laws of the Ming Dynasty and the majesty of the emperor were not taken seriously.

Lord of Heaven and Earth, personal teacher.

The Ming Dynasty respected Confucianism and promoted science. In this atmosphere, apart from the emperor, the emperor and the empress, the emperor was the greatest and the supreme ruler of the world.

But there are treacherous people who commit treacherous acts again and again. This is simply deserving of death! !

"I decided to leave Beijing to patrol the border. I wanted to take a good look at the virtues of the Ming Dynasty's military." Zhu Youxiao frowned slightly, looked at Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian and said.

"The imperial court allocates so much money and food every year. In order not to treat the border guards badly, even when the national treasury is not rich, it allocates levies to the world to solve the insufficient supply of money and food."

"It's just that after I proposed this matter, I encountered opposition from many civil and military officials in the court, and even admonitions from the Supreme Court. At that time, I became suspicious, what kind of situation could make so many people react to this How intense?"

"So the more people object, the more determined your Majesty will be to leave Beijing to patrol the border?" Zhu Yujian, who was bolder, looked at Zhu Youxiao with a complicated expression.

"good."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "No matter how complicated everything in this world is, there is an iron law that remains unchanged forever, that is, everything in the world comes because of profit, and everything in the world goes out because of profit!"

"One benefit has bound many people."

"And the things I have discovered since I left Beijing to patrol the border, including being assassinated twice by traitors, all indicate that Ming Dynasty is ill, and the illness is very serious!!"

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian looked serious.

indeed.

Since they left Beijing with their car, all the incidents they have experienced along the way all support what the emperor said. Daming is indeed ill.

If this is not the case, Ming Dynasty will definitely not be like this.

"There is an old saying that goes well: reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles; traveling thousands of miles is not as good as reading countless people; reading countless people is not as good as being guided by a famous teacher; being guided by a famous teacher is not as good as enlightening yourself."

Zhu Youxiao gave a sneer, as if he had remembered something, "I used to trust others so much that I thought whatever others said was true. Haha, looking back now, it's so ridiculous."

"I am the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If I can't even understand what kind of situation the Ming Dynasty is up to and down, then the Ming Dynasty will really be doomed."

"I have thought of countless possibilities, but I never thought that some people would be so courageous. They would deceive those above and bully those below. As a result, many things that can be solved will become difficult to solve after accumulation!"

What Zhu Youxiao said reminded Zhu Youjian of one thing. To be honest, his imperial brother only started to change a little bit after Xing Xiyuan was assassinated.

It even became strange and scary to him.

His imperial brother loved killing people so much. The key was to kill them. He would arrest and kill them in groups. This made Zhu Youjian always feel that his imperial brother was very similar to Emperor Gao! !

"Brother Emperor, do you want to spur the world by issuing an edict stating the assassination in Shimen Town?" Zhu Youjian, who thought of this, pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhu Youxiao and told him what was in his heart. think.

"There must be some such considerations."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and leaned on the cushions and said: "After encountering two assassinations in succession, I found that I was in the middle of the situation. If I do more, I am afraid that I will face more dangers."

"Isn't this possible?!"

Zhu Yujian was a little shocked and said: "Could it be..."

"impossible?"

Zhu Youxiao smiled and shook his head, looked at Zhu Yujian and said: "Taking someone's money is like killing your parents. This is an sworn enemy, even if you are an emperor."

"!!"

Both Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian were so shocked that they didn't know what to say.

What Zhu Youxiao said had a great impact on them. After all, the environment they had experienced told them that the emperor was superior, and whoever the emperor wanted to die must die! !

"So if I want to do more, if I want to save the Zhu family and the country, and if I want to reverse the fate of the Ming Dynasty, I must break the situation!"

Under the gaze of the two of them, Zhu Youxiao said slightly sadly: "Since what I do is destined to touch the interests of many people, then I will simply make the matter bigger and make it known to everyone. Only then can some people take action.”

"Of course, doing this will inevitably shake the imperial power. After all, before this, the emperor was a being that everyone respected and feared. But now there are people who dare to risk the nine tribes and assassinate them. This will inevitably make more people people to think about this.”

"So this patrol, I will not return to the capital easily. I have to do something big to make a point to the world. I am the Son of Heaven. If I find something, whoever I want to die must die. , Even if I am in danger, I will never be greedy for life!"

"Brother Emperor, don't you want to go to Liao Qian and take an opportunity to fight the Jianlu, right?" Zhu Youjian was shocked, seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Zhu Youxiao in disbelief.

"What did you say?"

This made Zhu Yujian look at Zhu Youjian in shock.

"good."

Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly and said: "This is another intention of my Ming Dynasty. I want those who still have confidence in Ming Dynasty and those who still have hope for the world to know it everywhere. After what I have done, I can withstand the pressure and calculations from all parties and do what I have clearly assigned to them with high morale.”

When talking about this, Zhu Youxiao's eyes became sharp.

There are too many problems and shortcomings in Ming Dynasty right now. If you want to solve them one by one, in addition to having a transcendent vision and assumptions, he, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, must also set an example!

How to lead by example?

Not afraid of death!

Dare to face danger.

This is easy to say, but difficult to do, especially when facing danger, not everyone can face it calmly, even the aloof emperor.

The emperor is also a human being and is mortal.

But since you sit in this position, you can't just enjoy yourself but completely forget your responsibilities and burdens. If you forget it in peacetime, you will forget it. At least you won't face the situation of national destruction.

It is a pity that the Ming Dynasty is currently in a whirlpool. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is in troubled times. If you don't want to take the initiative to take the initiative, then there will be nothing but defeat.

The more things he experienced, the more Zhu Youxiao understood a truth.

Ming Dynasty is in the current situation. If you want to change it, you can't just open your mouth and let the people below do things. You must also do something yourself.

In an environment characterized by official corruption, frequent disasters, and constant rebellions, after careful consideration, the only way to get the fastest response is to attack the rampant rebels head-on.

After all, starting from the forty-seventh year of Wanli, after the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Sarhu, the Ming Dynasty suffered too many setbacks and suffered too many losses in the face of the Jianlu rebel force in just a few years.

This also makes all parts of the world pay the highest attention to Jianlu.

If the Ming Dynasty can win a victory under the power of Jianlu, even if it is a tragic victory, as long as it can make the Jianlu suffer serious losses, it can regain part of the lost land in Liaodong, and it will be promoted under the leadership of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. All this, then everything can change!

This is what Zhu Youxiao wants to do.

In the overall environment of constant constraints, cascading internal worries, and constant foreign aggression, we must use the determination and will of others to gather the people who are still loyal to him and to the Ming Dynasty to do a strategic event that can affect the trend of the Ming Dynasty. As long as it can be done, Zhu Youxiao can trade space for time and lay a solid foundation for the next reform! !
