Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

No matter what you do, you must pay attention to logic, whether it is politics, military, or anything else, everything is supported by underlying logic.

Without underlying logical support, it means there is no root to speak of, and it is impossible to operate because there is no basis for existence.

All the things Zhu Youxiao is doing nowadays are closely revolving around this point, that is, the great righteousness. It seems that this is very illusory, but in fact it is very important!

Because I don’t know when, the great righteousness firmly in the hands of the emperor was actually given away by others. This caused the emperor to want to do something. As long as some vested interests are involved, there will be a lot of criticism and doubts. This in turn leads to the occurrence of self-certifying traps.

If you want to break this mess, you must understand one thing, that is, no matter how many things you do to undermine vested interests, it will not cause the foundation of rule to be shaken. Even if there are many rebellions, even if there are many riots, as long as there is a Power can shock the world, so even if there are too many challenges to face, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Therefore, all kinds of deductions point to one point without exception, which is the control of military power!

Everything seems to be back to the starting point, but Zhu Youxiao clearly understands that most of the military systems under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty are rotten. No matter how much money is spent and how much food is consumed, it cannot be recovered from the rotten army. , gathering a strong and loyal army.

This is the fundamental reason why we went to Liao to fight.

This world belongs to your Zhu family, and this country is ruled by you, Zhu Youxiao. Even you are not willing to risk your life, so why should you ask others to shout and kill?

Therefore, everything Zhu Youxiao is doing now is closely related to the great cause. As long as he can win this huge gamble, the situation will be different.

In the early morning in Zunhua City, there was nothing but cold.

Even though the morning sun is slowly rising, bringing light and warmth to the world, the remaining coldness still makes people shiver.

Outside Zunhua City.

The imperial chariot is stationed there.

Inside the royal tent.

"Your Majesty, all the remaining traitors and sycophants in Zunhua City have been eliminated by my troops."

Sun Zushou's voice was a little hoarse, and his whole state was very tired, but in front of the emperor, Sun Zushou still bowed respectfully and said: "There are more than thousands of people arrested now. How to deal with these people, please ask His Majesty's Holy Judgment!"

"Give Sun Qing a seat and pour some tea."

Zhu Youxiao, who was leaning on the cushions, was not in a hurry to express his opinion on the matter. Instead, he looked at Lu Jiude who was standing aside and said calmly.

"minister…"

"Okay, we are the monarchs and ministers here, so we don't have to worry about the common etiquette." Looking at Sun Zushou who was about to shirk, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said.

Zhu Youxiao still valued Sun Zushou very much, even though he had not had much contact with him before, but based on what he saw and heard in Shimen Town and Zunhua, especially in Zunhua, after many days of purges and arrests, Sun Zushou proved his loyalty and position with practical actions, and Zhu Youxiao felt that this person was useful!

Ming Dynasty took too many wrong paths in the past, which led to the prevalence of many bad trends. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao must set an example and reverse it through practical actions.

"I thank God for his grace!"

After taking the cup of hot tea from Lu Jiude and looking at the brocade stool beside him, Sun Zushou's heart felt warm, and his eyes even turned red, so Sun Zushou hurriedly bowed his head to the emperor.

"Okay, let's talk about business."

Zhu Youxiao lifted up his robe sleeves, looked at Sun Zushou and said: "Those who were arrested, as long as they are involved in the specific case, will be taken to the execution ground for a public trial, and let the soldiers and civilians of Zunhua decide how to kill them. It's Lingchi, it's Skinning and cutting in half are all done according to Sanhe and Jizhou."

"As for those family members and relatives, they are also treated according to the customs of Sanhe and Jizhou. As long as they are young and strong, including the servants, they will be incorporated into the criminal camp. They have made meritorious services on the battlefield and can atone for their sins. If you want your relatives to survive and live like a human being, That also requires accumulating military merit. This Zunhua public trial will be presided over by the Qing family. "

hum.

Sun Zushou's heart tightened. He originally thought that the public trial in Zunhua would be called by the emperor himself, but he did not expect that it would fall on him in the end.

Sun Zushou was not a fool. He understood that the emperor's arrangement was to let him make a choice. Whether he was willing to do this or not would indicate his future path.

This is Zhu Youxiao.

If he chooses to reuse a group of people, he will use them without reservation. Even if someone in this group of people messes up things or fails, he will not punish them. After all, they are working according to their own will. work.

If you encounter some setbacks, just blame the people below. After a long time, who will still follow you wholeheartedly?

This is the emperor's promise!

This is the root of employing people!

However, before re-appointing a group of people, Zhu Youxiao has to do one thing, which is to bundle interests and completely brand the party of God. This is the key.

The imperial party is one of the important components that defends the imperial power.

Just like in the past, cleaning the inner court, identifying nobles, and cultivating sects and vassals were all part of defending the imperial power. Treat friends as much as possible and enemies as few as possible, and reduce the number of opposites as much as possible. Of his generation, Zhu Youxiao's attitude is very clear.

dead!

If they don't die, Zhu Youxiao will die.

"The minister obeys the order!"

After pondering for a moment, Sun Zushou hurriedly stood up and bowed.

Seeing Sun Zushou like this, Zhu Youxiao smiled happily. Of course he knew what Sun Zushou had guessed, but what if he guessed it?

What Zhu Youxiao wants is an attitude!

If he doesn't even have the attitude he should have, how can he be reused? To trust?

"Your Majesty, something happened!!"

In this atmosphere, a voice sounded outside the imperial tent, breaking the calm.

"Come in."

Zhu Youxiao frowned.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Shen Tingyang, who was standing outside the tent, hurriedly walked into the tent with his head lowered. In his hand, he held a stack of memorials. Zhu Youxiao frowned slightly when he saw these.

"Your Majesty, urgent delivery from Jianchangying."

Under Zhu Youxiao's gaze, Shen Tingyang bowed and said: "There was a military rebellion in Lulong. Many officials headed by the Yongping prefect were killed. Now Lulong is completely in chaos."

what? !

Sun Zushou, who was sitting here, was shocked when he heard this. He never thought that Lu Long would be in trouble just a few days ago?

Lulong is such a special place. It is located in the hinterland of Yongping Prefecture, with Shanhaiguan Town to the east, Santunying, Jianchangying and other important towns to the north, and Shuntian Prefecture to the west. It is an important passage in and out of the customs. At this time, Lu Longsheng Chaos is not a good thing for Ming Dynasty! !

Especially the point where Lu Long changed his life was too subtle. It happened after the emperor entered Zunhua, so there is no guarantee that something else will happen.
