Quickly wear "I am the empress"

Seeing the memorial thrown out of the hall by Zhiyu, an official looked around and stepped forward to pick it up.

After reading the contents, the official widened his eyes and looked at Zhou Yanru in disbelief.

"Master Zhou, how could you...how could you do so many bad things?"

Hearing what the official said, Zhu Youjian stepped forward and looked at the contents of the memorial.

After the memorial was passed around among the crowd, everyone fell silent and no one stood up to say anything.

Seeing this, Zhiyu waved his hand and ordered Wei Zhongxian: "Drag him away and execute him in the autumn."

Wei Zhongxian nodded: "Yes."

After saying this, he clapped his hands, and immediately the Jinyiwei people rushed into the hall and took Zhou Yanru away.

After Zhou Yanru was taken away, the court fell silent.

Zhiyu glanced at the sky and said calmly, "It's time to start the morning court."

After saying this, she straightened her back and looked at the people below with full momentum.

"Going to court............"

As the sharp voice rang out, all the officials knelt on the ground in an instant.

"Long live my emperor."

"Everyone, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I have just ascended the throne, and I don't know much about Ming Dynasty government affairs."

"But I also know a little about the current situation in Ming Dynasty."

"The Ming Dynasty is now facing internal and external troubles. To resolve the current crisis, the court must provide relief to the people internally and resist foreign enemies externally."

"The treasury is empty, and we really can't give out much money for disaster relief."

"After much thought, I have decided to stop distributing money to the royal family."

"From now on, the descendants of the Ming royal family can take the imperial examinations to serve as officials, do business in various places, and engage in any industry."

As soon as Zhiyu finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the court, and then voices of opposition emerged one after another.

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."

"Supporting the royal family's children is a policy left by our ancestors. How can we change it?"

"Our ancestors issued this decree to prevent the royal family from monopolizing power."

Zhiyu spread his hands and said helplessly: "Since you all think this strategy is not feasible."

"Then the money for disaster relief and military maintenance in the Ming Dynasty will be funded by you gentlemen."

Upon hearing this, the people present changed their expressions instantly, "Your Majesty, our salaries are limited. Even if we want to contribute to the Ming Dynasty, it is really............"

Zhiyu pursed her lips, "Then, gentlemen, tell me, what should the Ming Dynasty do now?"

"Since you are against my decree, I think there must be a better solution..."

"If there is no solution, you will not deny me."

"After all, if the Ming Dynasty falls, we will all become slaves of a conquered nation. I think no one wants to be a slave of a conquered nation, right?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in shock.

To understand what the fate of slaves of a conquered nation is, just look at the people of the Southern Song Dynasty. They naturally did not want to be the people of a conquered nation.

But if we stop supporting the royal family, the people in the royal family will probably make trouble.

Moreover, this is the rule passed down by our ancestors. How can we just say we won’t support them?............

If the imperial court no longer supports the royal family members, they will probably rebel.

Seeing that everyone was silent for a while, Zhiyu looked at Zhu Youjian below leisurely, "Prince Xin, do you have a better idea than this?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Youjian came out and bowed to Zhiyu, saying, "Your Majesty, I think we can crack down on corrupt officials."

Zhiyu raised an eyebrow, "It takes time to investigate corrupt officials, and the Ming Dynasty today doesn't have that kind of time."

Zhu Youjian was silent upon hearing this. "Your Majesty, if you stop supporting the royal family, I'm afraid it will cause unrest."

Zhiyu smiled nonchalantly, "What's there to be afraid of if there's unrest? Isn't the Nine Thousand Years Old here?"

"Just let him take people to suppress it."
