Are you crazy?The four beauties are chasing after me!

Chapter 120 Everything I Do Is For The Common People!

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath, and he looked at the sky above the hall, as if it was an empty gate to hell.

He said in a deep tone: "I killed a lot of people."

"[-], [-] living people, all killed, it's time to bleed like a river."

When Zhu Yuanzhang talked about this incident, he himself seemed to be in disbelief.

"But why do I have to kill them? Can't I let them go? No!"

"Because I watched for a long time, one by one, I found that among the 3 people, there was not a single one innocent!"

When he said that, Gu Feng felt a little breathless.

But Zhu Yuanzhang's heart-wrenching disappointment was revealed in his eyes, and he suffered more than anyone else.

"More than 3 people, do I kill too many?"

"not much!"

"They are greedy. I will kill any such people if I can!"

"Can't kill? Impossible!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, and flicked his sleeves suddenly: "If I was afraid that someone would hold great power and be against me, then why did I give those people important positions in the first place?"

"It's ridiculous. Will future generations think that corrupt officials don't deserve to die?"

"It can only be said that maybe they are corrupt officials, or they are not good things in the first place."

"Will those corrupt officials who are corrupt and anointed by the people think about you when they plunder your money?"

"I abolished the prime minister just because even if another person was replaced, he would still be greedy!"

"In this case, is it necessary to retain the position of Prime Minister?"

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang talking so happily, Gu Feng thought, let him talk enough, so that future generations can take a good look at what kind of emperor Zhu Yuanzhang is.

"Do you remember the empty seal case?"

Hearing his question, Zhu Yuanzhang fell into memory. He snorted coldly and said, "Of course I remember."

"A group of court officials colluded with local officials. They traveled thousands of miles to meet and discuss how to fill in the stamped blank ledger to pay taxes and fees."

"Hmph! It's another group of bloody thieves!"

"They deceived their superiors and concealed it from their inferiors, and they worked in collusion!"

"These people, even I dare to expire, if they face the common people, what kind of rampage will they be?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Guo Feng back: "Why, do you think I'm angry at them for cheating?"

"If I don't kill these people, how can this court get better?"

Gu Feng said lightly, "Then Guo Huan..."

Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly: "He deserves to die even more!"

"He steals and sells official grain, colludes with officials to cheat, and embezzles tax revenue. When collecting taxes, he uses clever names to collect various kinds of money for water, food, treasury, and gods and Buddhas..."

Zhu Yuanzhang was angry in his heart. He grew up under the rule of the Yuan people, and he deeply knew how difficult it is for ordinary people to live under such a system.

"People have to pay taxes when they are alive, and they have to pay taxes when they are dead! It's just unreasonable!"

"Guo Huan, who doesn't care about the life and death of the people, shouldn't be killed?"

This time, there was no need for Gu Feng to speak, Zhu Yuanzhang said sadly: "There is still blue jade!"

"he……"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "He is young and talented, and he has made great contributions to Ming Dynasty."

"I treated him well, and he received a lot of compliments."

"But it's this appreciation that ultimately hurt him."

"He is running rampant and lawless, occupying people's fields and wives..."

"Time and time again, dissuasion is impossible. Shouldn't people who harm the people like this be killed?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's words were cadenced, his chest heaved violently, his eyes looked at the empty hall, and his expression couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, the 24 meritorious officials above the court are all gone now.

This throne is lonely after all.

He lowered his head and sighed: "I killed so many people who deserved to die."

"It's just to keep good officials who are dedicated to serving the people."

His face is already old, and his figure is not as tall and straight as when he was young.

But he still stubbornly straightened his back.

It seems that even if everything in the world is against him, but for the ideal in his heart, Zhu Yuanzhang still moves forward without complaint or regret.

……

at the same time.

The audience watching the live broadcast was numb from the shock.

"I... have nothing but admiration for Zhu Yuanzhang."

"He went from being a beggar to becoming the founding emperor, but he didn't forget the people."

"He is a generation of emperors, but he wants to go against the sky for the people of the world. He deserves my evaluation. He is really a good emperor."

"Actually, based on the fact that he cares for the common people, I don't think the title 'one emperor through the ages' is enough to judge him."

In fact, Gu Feng said before that Zhu Yuanzhang was an emperor through the ages, and some people were not convinced, but when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang killing corrupt officials, he loved the people like a son.

They looked at the back of the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and felt a little distressed at the same time.

And in the history forum, the discussion became even more frantic.

"If you really want to call Zhu Yuanzhang that way, let's not talk about other things. Since he has always considered the people and has never forgotten the hardships of being a people, I think it is nothing to say that he is a good emperor. Zhu Yuanzhang is indeed worthy of the name." One emperor through the ages!"

"Ah! The four major cases in the early Ming Dynasty were really shocking when I watched them before. I couldn't understand why the cruel emperor wanted to kill so many people. Those were all human lives. At that time, I really hated Zhu Yuanzhang, but now I know, I was wrong, terribly wrong!"

"From now on, we will find that there are reasons for that!"

"I think it's ridiculous to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is afraid of someone rebelling against him. That emperor didn't have this concern?"

"The Ming Dynasty where Zhu Yuanzhang lived had corrupt officials. If it were another dynasty, it would be even more terrifying."

"Old Zhu is very suspicious. I saw him getting old just now, and thought he was very peaceful, but in fact he is not at all!"

"He doesn't trust these officials at all, which is actually a good thing."

"Those four big cases actually didn't kill ordinary people. What Zhu Yuanzhang killed were corrupt people. However, some ordinary people in later generations, who knew a little about history, even complained about the corrupt officials who harmed the people. They turned their heads and scolded them. For Zhu Yuanzhang's sake, he was cruel."

"It's funny, but it's also very sad."

"That's right, the emperor loves the common people, so he punishes the corrupt bureaucrats, but these common people don't appreciate it, and they still feel sorry for the bad guys. It's really laughable."

"There were such people in ancient times, but now there are more!"

"Zhu Yuanzhang himself climbed to the throne from the bottom. Doesn't he know how hateful corrupt officials are? He just knows, so he can't tolerate sand in his eyes!"

……

inside the screen,

Zhu Yuanzhang looked ahead, as if lost in thought.
