Zhu Youjian’s”Taizu” made the huge Fengtian Hall instantly audible.

Everyone’s eyes subconsciously fell on the face of the majestic man wearing Emperor Ming’s clothes, and then subconsciously turned away and did not dare to look at him.

But even if their gaze stayed for only a moment, it was enough for them to compare the face in front of them with the face in the portrait in their memory.

Taizu!

It’s really Taizu!

After nearly three hundred years, Emperor Taizu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, who had passed away as early as the early Ming Dynasty, once again appeared in the Fengtian Palace.

“Uh-huh!”

After a short period of silence, most of the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Palace knelt down towards the figure walking toward the throne with dragon and tiger steps.

“Chen et al…….See Emperor Taizu!”

Even Zhu Youjian, who stood up from the dragon chair, knelt down with him.

Only a few dozen people in the entire field refused to kneel down and looked at the sudden appearance of the queen with doubts. Emperor Zu

“Fake!”

The moment Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the imperial steps and turned to look at the ministers below.

Wei Zaode, the Minister of War in the crowd who refused to kneel down, scolded in a deep voice:

“He Fang Xiaoxiao dared to pretend to be Taizu Cholera Court

“As we all know, Taizu was the Hongwu Emperor who founded the Ming Dynasty, and he had already passed away for nearly three hundred years.

“After three hundred years, how could Emperor Taizu, who had already passed away, appear in the court three hundred years later?”

As soon as Wei Zaode spoke, the courtiers who did not kneel down like him all agreed:

“Your Majesty clearly sees that this person must be a thief in disguise”

“His Majesty! Princess Kunxing asked someone to pretend to be Emperor Taizu. Please punish Princess Kunxing for the crime of disrespect!”

“His Majesty! This person dares to pretend to be Emperor Taizu and break into the court without permission. Please call this person a traitor to the nine clans!”

“His Majesty! Taizu has passed away for more than three hundred years, and it is impossible for the real Emperor Taizu to appear in the court today!”

“Your Majesty, see you clearly! Today’s court is that of Emperor Chongzhen, not that of Emperor Hongwu in the early Ming Dynasty.

“How could the true founding emperor Taizu appear in the court of Emperor Chongzhen?”

More than a dozen courtiers were excited, and they persuaded Emperor Chongzhen earnestly.

In the chatter, both the courtiers kneeling at their heads and Emperor Chongzhen kneeling on the imperial steps understood the meaning behind their words..

It is now three hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. After three hundred years of vicissitudes, the dynasty has long been passed to the hands of Emperor Chongzhen.

Not to mention that it is impossible for the founding emperor Taizu to come back to life after his death in the 31st year of Hongwu and live for nearly three more years. Hundreds of years.

Even if he has really lived to this day, even if the person standing in the court now is really the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Then he should be fake, and must be fake. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, let alone a ninety-five person. Emperor?

The imperial power is supreme. Once he truly takes power, who can tolerate someone riding on his head?

Not to mention Emperor Taizu, who has been separated for more than three hundred years and more than 447 generations.

Even if he is a biological father and son, he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor. How many of those who have defeated the emperor hope that a great emperor will seize power over their heads?

After experiencing the shocking changes brought about by the resurrection of Emperor Taizu, after listening to the words of those courtiers, the other courtiers who had already knelt suddenly thought of this..

Emperor Chongzhen, who was also kneeling on the imperial steps, also thought of this.

Then……Now there are only two questions left before them.

1. Is the Emperor Taizu in front of me real or fake?

2. If the Emperor Taizu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was really in front of them, would they recognize him or not? admit……It means that there is a being above the imperial power who is higher than the imperial power and superior to the emperor of this dynasty. deny……Will I feel sorry for my ancestors?

Faced with such problems and choices, Emperor Chongzhen was filled with entanglements for a while.

Others may also wonder if they have made a mistake and whether the Emperor Taizu in front of them is pretending.

But as a direct bloodline of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Youjian, who grew up looking at Zhu Yuanzhang’s portraits and listening to Zhu Yuanzhang’s stories, is 100% sure.

This person in front of me……He must be the real Emperor Taizu.

That……Do you recognize it or not?

After struggling for a moment, Zhu Youjian gritted his teeth and yelled downward:

“Shut up, everyone!

“No matter how stupid I am, I will never fail to recognize my ancestors!”

In one sentence, the authenticity of Zhu Yuanzhang’s identity was confirmed.

The noisy courtiers below seemed to have pressed the pause button for a moment.

Only Wei Zaode looked at Zhu Youjian with a sad face, and his face was full of eagerness. Fighting to the death, His Majesty asked why he surrendered first.

Facing such a look, Chongzhen withdrew his gaze with some guilt.

Wei Qing is a good person, and everything he does is for me.

But……In front of him is the founder of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestor of his old Zhu family, and the ancestor that Zhu Youjian admires most and hopes to emulate.

Let him open his eyes and tell lies and deny his ancestors?

He really can’t do it!

He saw all the lawsuits between Emperor Chongzhen and the courtiers below.

After Zhu Youjian scolded the courtiers and came to a conclusion, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered,”What? You don’t want us to be fake?”

He emphasized the word hope very seriously.

Hearing this, Zhu Youjian was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice,”Although I have no talent or virtue, I will not deny my ancestors.””

“Okay,” Zhu Yuanzhang nodded:

“Since you still recognize our ancestor

“Then push it aside and leave the rest to us.”

After hearing the order, Zhu Youjian subconsciously wanted to do it.

But he glanced at Zhu Weiluo next to him, and thought of what Feiyufu had just said about the Queen’s enthronement, he hesitated for a moment.

“how? you are not willing?”

Zhu Youjian hesitated,”But……Since the Wu Zhou Dynasty, no woman has ever registered to be emperor.

“Even if Taizu ordered it, it might be difficult to convince the public!”

Hearing this, everyone below agreed:

“It is the first time in history for a woman to become the emperor. I ask Taizu to take back his order!”

“Taizu, please think twice, the hen rooster sitting in the morning is a sign of the destruction of the country!”

“I’ll give you my advice!”

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored the courtiers below, stared at Zhu Youjian for a moment without blinking, and then questioned word by word:

“If you don’t want to see a woman ascend the throne and become emperor, are you willing to see yourself become a subjugated king in two years’ time and ruin our three hundred years of Ming Dynasty?”

“If you don’t want to see a woman ascend the throne and become emperor, are you willing to kill all your wives and daughters after Li Zicheng arrives in the capital? When the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty open the city gates to welcome the intruders into the capital, you will have only one loyal eunuch left to hang you in Meishan?”

“If you don’t want to see a woman ascend the throne and become emperor, would you rather see Li Zicheng become emperor and be captured by the Qing army in Shanhaiguan on the 18th day?

“Do you want to see our land of China fall into the hands of foreigners again?

“Or would you like to see the Ten Days in Yangzhou, the Three Massacres in Jiading, and the absence of roosters for thousands of miles in Sichuan?

“Or are you willing to see the 80th day of wearing your hair to show your allegiance to Taizu in the 17th dynasty? One hundred thousand people die with one heart and one mind, leaving three hundred miles of Ming Dynasty and the last loyal soul to die?

“Do you want to see our land in China fall into the flames of war, with more than 60 million people slaughtered at the hands of foreigners?”

Quiet!

Every time Zhu Yuanzhang asked a question, the court became quieter.

After he asked several questions in succession, everyone in the Fengtian Hall, whether it was Emperor Chongzhen or the civil and military officials of the court, looked at their Emperor Taizu with shock.

“Two years?”

“Subjugation of the country?”

“Hang Meishan?”

“Ten days in Yangzhou?”

“Jiading Santu?”

“Within Sichuan……Killed all?”

“Sixty million people?”

After a brief silence, the Fengtian Palace suddenly erupted into an uproar.

Zhu Youjian, who was very close at hand, stared at the Emperor Taizu in front of him with wide eyes.

He tried his best to see even if he could see from his face. A little exaggeration, even the slightest trace of a joke.

It’s a pity……No.

Taizu was extremely serious when he said these words.

He was so serious that he seemed to have personally witnessed and experienced the shame of national subjugation and bloody killings that he described.

Seriousness has arrived, his arrival……It seems to be just to change the future shrouded in darkness

“I……I……”

Zhu Youjian opened his mouth several times, but couldn’t say a complete sentence. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

He covered his chest with a trembling hand.

I can only feel the place on the left side under the palm of my right hand that should be beating vigorously…….Empty, twitching and numb to the point where I couldn’t feel the slightest bit of pain.

A drop of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Then two drops, three drops……Got the line.

The smell of blood made him feel like he was seeing an isolated city in the wind and rain.[]

I saw the guard general in the isolated city summoning all the generals and said:”I swear to die for the city, but in the panic, I must not fall into the hands of the enemy and die. Who can fulfill this important festival for me?”

I saw it in the sky. Under the rain of blood, someone shouted before dying:”It’s just death, and those who hate it (cjdg) have sent it to the ears of the people of the city in vain.”

Seeing the white bones that have only been seen in poems exposed in the wild, there are no chickens in thousands of miles. The desolate scene

“puff!”

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something more.

But he couldn’t make any sound. He only spit out a mouthful of blood, which turned into a mist of blood.

“Father!”

Zhu Weiyao on the side supported Zhu Youjian at the moment when his body fell weakly. He reached out and stuffed a pill into his mouth.

In an instant, Zhu was so stimulated that his mind lost control and his heart was broken. Youjian slowly opened his eyes again

“Taizu!”

Pushing away Zhu Wei’s support, Zhu Youjian knelt down in front of Zhu Yuanzhang with a thud.

“I am mediocre and have no talent or virtue, which makes the heaven angry.

“All kinds of sins can be brought upon me

“But I, the people of Ming Dynasty……He is innocent!

“Please Taizu save my Ming Dynasty!

“Please Taizu save my Ming Dynasty!”

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and curled his lips angrily.

He waved his hand to pick the man up from the ground and moved him aside.”It’s useless. Don’t say that the rise and fall of a country has nothing to do with heaven.

“Even if it is true, what if the heaven is so angry that it wants to destroy our Ming Dynasty and destroy that day?”

After saying that, he no longer looked at this useless king of subjugation, and turned his head to focus on Zhu Weiyu.

“Although you are ready to carry the entire Ming Dynasty, I think you are still a little uncomfortable with it now.

“Next, how about we help you sort out the current situation and government affairs?”

Zhu Wei’ao bowed to him and said,”Just do as Taizu orders.”

With the approval of the group of friends, Zhu Yuanzhang was no longer polite.

He lifted the hem of his dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair.

“Someone come!”

With an order, hundreds of guards in flying fish uniforms poured into the Fengtian Hall like ghosts.

A chilling atmosphere instantly enveloped the entire court.

“Anyone who impeached our status just now will be executed immediately and the nine tribes will be implicated.

“All those recommended, sponsored, and approved in the process of his career promotion will be investigated for three generations.”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes were sharp and clear, and a single instruction made people recall the tragic events of the four major cases in the early Ming Dynasty.

“Bang!”、”Bang!”、”Bang!”

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the Jin Yiwei without any hesitation, directly removed the heads of more than a dozen civil servants and generals.

The corpses fell to the ground together with the thrown heads.

These people have censors and six ministers.

But In Zhu Yuanzhang’s view, even the founder of the country, Emperor Taizu, couldn’t recognize them. They were just a bunch of useless trash.

All of a sudden, all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were stunned by this bloody scene.

It is recorded in the history books Was the court of Taizu’s dynasty so bloody and dangerous?

Why do you always feel that the original historian was merciful to Taizu’s cruelty?

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored the change of attitude of the officials. After an order was executed, another one followed immediately The second order was issued:

“Anyone who just impeached Kunxing will be executed and his entire family will be confiscated.

“All persons recommended, sponsored, and approved during the promotion process will be strictly investigated.”

“Bang!”、”Bang!”、”Bang!”

Another thirty people were killed instantly, and the entire Fengtian Palace was filled with red and blood. The surviving ministers couldn’t help but burst into an uproar. Some even fought with each other, knelt down and kowtowed to beg for submission.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn’t even look at it, and then towards���Fang waved his hand and said,”Drag these roaring ones out of the hall and kill them with sticks.”

One after another, like dragging dead dogs, those who were lying on the ground or begging for mercy, questioning, or cursing were dragged out.

Along with the screams, all the surviving officials in the Fengtian Palace fell into silence, not even daring to breathe and make any sound.

After killing three waves in a row, Zhu Yuanzhang looked down at the officials who must have slipped through the net and asked:”Where is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry?”

No one answered.

“Um?”

“”Report to Taizu,” Zhu Yuanzhang’s face darkened. He looked left and right at the first and fifth-rank officials below, and found that the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the left and right ministers had been beheaded. He quickly went out to report back,”The Minister of the Ministry of Industry……Among the second batch of courtiers who were executed”

“Dead? Zhu

Yuanzhang nodded, not feeling sorry. He just looked at the fifth-grade official below and asked,”What is your position?””

“Reporting back to Taizu, I am Wu Qian, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry. Zhu

Yuanzhang nodded and ordered directly:

“Now you are promoted to the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, and you are responsible for building the concession stand.

“You are allowed to mobilize all your strength. It must be completed before noon and you will be responsible for the three tribes of Yi.”

“minister……Obey!”

Wu Qian was trembling, feeling both excited and nervous.

What was exciting was that he had been promoted. From a small official in the Engineering Department, he was promoted two and four levels to a third-level left assistant minister in the Engineering Department, and became the top minister. There is a vacancy in the Ministry of Industry, and his minister is not much different from the minister.

What is worrying is that once the task cannot be completed,……Not only will the newly promoted official be removed, but his head, his father’s family, mother’s family and wife’s family will also be buried with him.

Zhu Yuanzhang had no time to pay attention to Wu Qian’s complicated mood.

After giving the order, he continued to speak without looking at Wu Qian again:

“Where is the Grand Master of the Cabinet?”

“Ministers Zhou Yanru, Zhang Zhifa, and He Fengsheng paid homage to His Majesty Taizu.”

The three cabinet ministers all knelt in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Even though they had knelt down quickly enough, they were not sure that they could save their lives.

“Write the abdication edict and prepare for the abdication ceremony of the Queen’s accession to the throne.”

“My lord, please obey!”The three courtiers responded in unison.

After a brief meal in the court, Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order to the people he brought:

“Xu Da led a team of people to take over the defense of the capital city and ordered all the people to go home. Anyone who went out without permission would be killed without mercy!”

“Li Shanchang was fully responsible for all matters concerning the abdication. All the princes, nobles, civil and military officials and their families in the capital gathered in front of the abdication stage to witness the Queen’s enthronement.”

“Mao Xiang and Er Hu led the Jin Yiwei to comprehensively monitor the capital.

“All civil and military officials, wealthy country squires, and literati who criticized the Queen would have their homes confiscated and their clans exterminated.”

Orders were issued one after another.

Each instruction was completed quickly and orderly.

Not to mention all the civil and military officials in Fengtian Palace, even Emperor Chongzhen couldn’t help but sweat on his forehead:

“Taizu! this……Is it too much to kill?

“Wei Shangshu and Liu Shangshu were both rare and honest officials, and their court uniforms were usually patched.

“Yushi Wang and Yushi Fang were both loyal and upright ministers. Menjiu killed them like this…….It may be difficult to convince the public!”

As soon as he finished speaking, teams of uniformed guards returned to Fengtian Hall:

“His Majesty! 3.7 million taels of silver and 650,000 taels of gold were copied from Liu Shangshu’s house.”
