Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

A thick layer of snow clung to the east city of Zunhua. Although the sun was already high, the chill could not be concealed at all.

"Your Majesty asked me to come here. Is there anything you want to announce?"

"I don't know. It's been a few days. Your Majesty has not given any instructions on the rebellion and civil unrest in Lulong, Qian'an and other places. You can't just wait in vain, right?"

"Yes, we can't wait to suppress the rebellion and civil unrest. If we just sit back and watch this chaos intensify in various places, I'm afraid there will be more problems."

"At this time, I'm afraid everyone in the capital is aware of this matter, and there are many people in the government and the public discussing this matter."

"It's been a troubled year, it's been a troubled year, how could the Ming Dynasty be like this? What's going on?"

On the east city wall, the nobles accompanying him all had worried expressions on their faces. From time to time they looked at the emperor who was standing not far away with his hands behind his back, and they were talking in low voices.

Regarding the mutinies, civil unrest, and riots that have occurred in various places, there is no one in Zunhua City who is not talking about this matter in the past few days, whether it is the accompanying ministers of the two studies, or the serving nobles, or the accompanying sects, There is no need to worry about this. Although this kind of thing is uncontrollable, it is still unacceptable in the heart when things happen and come out.

Daming shouldn't be like this.

This is what many people think.

"Your Majesty, it's cold, please put on your cloak."

Under this situation, Lu Jiude held the big cloak and walked towards Zhu Youxiao with his head lowered. As he spoke, he put the big cloak in his hand on Zhu Youxiao's shoulders.

"Did they quarrel?"

Zhu Youxiao's face was calm, his deep eyes were staring at the snow in front of him, and he asked Lu Jiude in an indifferent tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Jiude truthfully reported: "Prince Rui and the others were very sad and wanted to come to the imperial court to admonish the emperor, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Tang princes and grandsons. During this period, Prince Rui and the others said some things they should not have said, which made Prince Lu and Ji The king and others were a little dissatisfied. When the servants left, they were still normal, but His Highness King Xin stopped the quarrel. "

"It's true that time passes and people's hearts are revealed."

Zhu Youxiao smiled, and a cold light flashed across his eyes, "The more critical the situation, the more it can test a person's character."

The more things he has experienced, the more Zhu Youxiao understands the truth: the human heart cannot stand the test. The more it is tested, the worse the feedback will be.

The bustle in the world comes because of profit, and the hustle and bustle in the world all ends because of profit. I don’t know how many people and things have been ruined by the word profit.

But for Zhu Youxiao, sometimes he still has to test. Without testing, how can he know the attitudes of the people around him.

Zhu Youxiao can tolerate other things.

Only in terms of stance, Zhu Youxiao couldn't tolerate it at all.

You can be bad, you can be evil, you can be greedy, you can be lustful, but when it comes to some big things, you can have both sides, and you can only get benefits without paying for it. That is absolutely wishful thinking! !

"Brother Royal."

"His Majesty."

While Zhu Youxiao was thinking, the voices of Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian sounded, which brought Zhu Youxiao back to his senses. When he turned around, faces came into view.

There is dignity.

There are worries.

There are complications.

And fear...

"Do you know why I asked you to come to Dongcheng?" After looking at Zhu Changhao and the others, Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand and tightened his cloak, and said calmly.

"What happened in Shanhaiguan Town in the past few days, I guess I won't mention it. You know it better than anyone else. Do you think this Ming Dynasty is still the Ming Dynasty of the Zhu family?"

Ok?

Hearing what the emperor said, every one of the sects and vassals who came to the imperial court showed surprise, and their eyes changed when they looked at the emperor.

They didn't know what the emperor meant when he said this.

Daming is not from the Zhu family.

Whose could it be?

The Ming Dynasty has been passed down for more than two hundred years, and the Zhu family emperor is the symbol of the Ming Dynasty. Who in the world doesn’t know about the Zhu family emperor? Who doesn’t recognize the Zhu family emperor?

"I know that there are some among you who want to escape."

Looking at the sects with different expressions, the corners of Zhu Youxiao's mouth turned up slightly, showing a half-smile, "I feel that even if some territory is lost, it is not a big deal for the Ming Dynasty, but the reality is this Like?"

"It's been almost six years since I, Yuji, ascended the throne. Time flies so fast. It's so fast that I don't even want to face it. Large areas of thousands of miles of territory in Liaodong have been lost. Many places in the southwest have suffered from chieftain rebellions. The loss of these territories , Haven’t you ever thought about it in the past?”

Although Zhu Youxiao's words were very light, they were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian, and a sense of shame arose in their hearts.

of course there are exceptions.

"Your Majesty, if these territories are lost, we can still send troops to regain them."

In this situation, King Rui Zhu Changhao stepped forward and said: "But if anything happens to His Majesty, the loss will be too great for Sheji and Ming Dynasty."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Hui Wang Zhu Changrun followed closely and said: "Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold, and you are my great emperor. I can leave anyone in this world, but I cannot leave you alone."

"Ha ha……"

Before King Gui Zhu Changying could say anything, Zhu Youxiao's laughter attracted the attention of many people, especially the group of civil and military officials gathered not far away, who all showed complicated expressions.

They didn't know what the emperor said to those sects, but they did know that the emperor seemed to be planning something big!

But they couldn't figure out what the big deal was.

"I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people."

When everyone was suspicious, Zhu Youxiao sneered, stared at Zhu Changhao and the others and said: "You are obviously afraid of death, but you insist on taking me with you, so that you can achieve the idea of ​​leaving Zunhua, right?"

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

When Zhu Youxiao said this, Zhu Changhao and the others lost their face. They could think of some things in their hearts, but they couldn't say them out. After all, they also wanted to save face. No matter what, they were all descendants of Shenzong. ah.

"The three kings Rui, Hui and Gui have bad conduct and are greedy for life and afraid of death. When the country is facing danger, they do not want to share the worries of the king and worry about the country. I am determined to seize the title and imprison him!!"

But when Zhu Changhao and others were planning to excuse themselves, what Zhu Youxiao said shocked the three of them, and they looked at Zhu Youxiao in disbelief.

Also shocked were Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian.

"Take it!!"

Following Zhu Youxiao's shout, the military eunuch who had been waiting for a long time quickly ran towards Zhu Changhao and the others. The scene that happened in front of them shocked Zhang Qingzhen, Wei Shitai and the rest of the civil and military personnel.

What's going on?

Why did the emperor suddenly want to arrest King Rui and the others?

"Your Majesty, I am wronged!"

"Let me go quickly!"

"Your Majesty, you cannot listen to the villain's slander!"

"His Majesty!!"

The controlled Zhu Changhao and others struggled hard, but their bodies had been hollowed out, how could they break free from Wu Yi's control?

Zhu Youxiao looked at the three people who were taken away, and there was no joy or sorrow in his expression. Zhu Youxiao was not willing to waste his words on useless people.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to completely reform the Ming Dynasty and cultivate a batch of useful talents to help him manage this messy Ming Dynasty, and even open up new sources of wealth for the Ming Dynasty.

But this does not mean that Zhu Youxiao will always tolerate some useless people.

After the King of Fortune Zhu Changxun was captured, King of Rui Zhu Changhao and others were also captured, but their fate was better. They were imprisoned for life, but at least they could still live. As for Zhu Changxun, there was no other way except death, even Zhu Changxun's descendants, including Zhu Yousong, will also die quietly.

Cutting down the weeds without eradicating the roots, they will grow again when the spring breeze blows!

Zhu Youxiao would not do such a stupid thing.

"Da da da……"

In such a special atmosphere, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and the green bricks under the feet seemed to shake slightly, and as time went by, the frequency of this shaking became stronger.

It's finally here.

Feeling this, Zhu Youxiao slowly turned around under countless surprised and suspicious gazes. A gust of cold wind blew in, blowing Zhu Youxiao's cloak.

I saw silhouettes of people swaying in the snow in the distance. The torrent they gathered was approaching Zunhua City at an extremely fast speed. There were more, more, and more. As a famous cavalry galloped quickly, behind them , followed by more cavalry and even infantry, the visual impact caused by this is extremely strong.

After Zhu Youxiao saw these teams, especially the flag fluttering in the wind, the smile on his lips grew wider. The team he had been waiting for had finally arrived!
