My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 2116 'Loyalty and patriotism'

Liu Mingzhi looked at the group of old foxes who had chosen to submit under the Longtai, and heaved a sigh of relief.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for these old foxes to convince him in such a short time.

However, some things only have zero and countless times.

As long as they surrender themselves the first time, there will be more submissions later.

Liu Mingzhi is confident that sooner or later these old foxes will truly convince themselves of their own charisma.

For example, lead them to dominate the world and look forward to the West.

As long as they can start their long-term vision of the West before they retire and return to their hometowns.

Liu Mingzhi firmly believes that no one will refuse the opportunity to be famous in history. Life is nothing more than fame and fortune.

These old foxes are in the second class. They have been in power for so many years, and they are more or less unclean.

Even Xia Gongming, who is famous for his uprightness, Liu Mingzhi dares to conclude that the bottom of this old man's buttocks will definitely not be clean without any filth.

Li already has it, and all they care about is reputation.

At the very least, Liu Mingzhi had a rough judgment in mind.

My uncle Song Yu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Jiang Yuanming, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, Wang He, Minister of Honglu Temple, and Minister of Dali Temple...their masters are not so disgusted with their self-proclaimed emperor.

Over time, let them get used to it slowly, and they will get used to the change in identity.

Du Chenghao, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Ye Kaiyan, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Qin Ziying, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Officials. The sons of these people are inextricably related to him.

As long as their sons Du Yu, Sun Mingfeng, and Ye Jinghui are still close to him, these old guys still can't get rid of their relationship with him.

Convincing yourself slowly is only a matter of time.

After all, their son was by his side, and he was a servant of the dragon in name.

If you want to get yourself out, unless you want to see yourself and others return home, your family will slowly fall without the support of yourself as the pillar.

Of the nine temple ministers, two of the temple ministers have been friends with him in the past, and the remaining seven temple ministers have to grind slowly.

As for the officials of other ministries.

Liu Mingzhi thought about it, and inadvertently glanced at Wei Yong and Tong Sansi, the ministers on the left and right.

Although Tong Sansi, his nominal half-senior brother, impeached him time and again, he was still fair and not a particularly difficult person to control.

On the contrary, Wei Yong, the left prime minister who is known as a treacherous minister, has dealt with him more than once. He is an unfathomable old fox.

To sum up, he is an out-and-out real villain.

Among the hundreds of officials in the Manchu Dynasty, Liu Mingzhi deliberately eliminated some officials who were not optimistic when they were officials in the same dynasty.

However, reason tells Liu Mingzhi that it is absolutely inappropriate to act like this at this moment.

Right now, the court needs to be stable, and I must secure my seat.

If you settle accounts after autumn, you should take your time. If you rush into some things, they will be self-defeating.

As for the military attache.

Thinking of this, Liu Mingzhi set his sights on a group of familiar military officers in the audience.

In the past, the military officer was mainly Mr. Wan Buhai, the Duke of Wu.

Mr. Wan took the coffin and set off to reclaim Heshuo, the land of Hetao. The time limit is coming to return the horse leather shroud.

As for the military officers, Yunyang, Duke of Jingguo, Wan Mingliang, the father-in-law of his elder brother Song Qing, the new Duke of Wu, and the general of the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang were the main ones.

It's just that neither I nor the veterans like Yunyang have been in the temple for a long time because of Dalong's battles every year in recent years.

On the side of the military attache, Cai Jun was honored, Lu Tao was Guan Ning, Chen Jin was Jingyuan, and they were veterans who had been idle for many years.

After careful weighing, the general's problem is not too big.

After all, a large number of generals under his command already have the qualifications to enter the temple and enjoy the glory and wealth.

A little promotion is enough to make the military officer have a double-footed situation.

After thinking silently for a while, the pressure on Liu Mingzhi gradually relaxed.

The only trouble now is Li's clan relatives and Old Marshal Yun, Zhang Kuang and the other generals who command heavy troops at the northern frontier.

Whether they will recognize their self-proclaimed emperor behavior is still unknown.

However, Northern Xinjiang was still under his control, and the capital was captured by him again.

Once Old Marshal Yun and the other five guards generals except Nangong Ye refuse to accept their act of proclaiming themselves emperors, I can cut off their food and grass, force them to submit and under my own persecution, slowly take them back Heart.

In this way, the problem of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the six guards of northern Xinjiang is not a big problem.

Cousin Zhang Mo has Rong Rong to balance, and he can slowly take over.

Then, the only troublesome things left are the Li clan and the royal family and nobles.

Gently glanced at King Qing who was staring at him with an inexplicable meaning in his eyes, King Yun and his brothers, and King Zhao and Li Tao who were always filled with righteous indignation towards him, Liu Mingzhi fell silent.

How to deal with the Li family clan, a force that has little power but has great influence, has become the most difficult problem for him at present.

Cutting weeds?

Liu Mingzhi shook his head hastily, disposing of the Li clan for no reason seemed to relieve his immediate worries, but in fact the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.

After all, I was rebelled by my relatives, my surname was Liu not Li!
You can only take one step at a time.

Let's see how they perform.

If they want to kill, they have to kill themselves.

Liu Mingzhi pinched his thigh suddenly after thinking about it, and looked at the officials under the dragon platform in a daze.

When did my heart become so insidious? I used to play tricks, and none of the officials present had played tricks, but the tricks I played would never treat human life like this.
Standing up in a daze, Liu Mingzhi looked down at the dragon chair behind him for a while, then frowned and muttered.

After a long time, Liu Mingzhi exhaled lightly.

"Department of Rites!"

"The minister is here!"

"Create a strategy to announce to the world that I will proclaim myself emperor, and all people will celebrate together!"

"The minister obeys the order."

"Department of punishment, Dali Temple!"

"Chen is here!"

"Amnesty for the whole world, those who are not the heinous ones, and the ones who have been sued for life, will be exempted from the pain of imprisonment."

"The minister obeys the order!"

"Ministry of Industry and Household Affairs!"

"Chen is here!"

"The two ministries joined forces to repair the city wall and the things damaged by the war in the city."

"The minister obeys the order."

"Military Department!"

"Chen is here!"

"In the name of King Zhao, appease the soldiers and horses under his command, and then use the Ministry of War to draw up a policy to order Gan Lianghou and his army to station on the spot. If they do not obey, cooperate with the Ministry of Officials to remove the position of General Dongfang Mingxiao Guowei and retain his position. Marquis of Ganliang, disarm and return home!"

"Follow the order!"

"Officials!"

"Chen is here!"

"Start with Enke in the first year of Taiping."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Liu Mingzhi issued a series of decrees proficiently, not like an existence who just became emperor, but like an old emperor who has been in power for many years.

Liu Mingzhi knew that some officials were a little reluctant about his will, and they didn't take it to heart.

Time will tell.

"The capital has stabilized, so let's retreat if there is nothing else to do!"

"The ministers and others will retire, long live my emperor!"

The officials wanted to stay and see how Liu Mingzhi dealt with the existence of Li Ye, the 'king of subjugation'.

However, the presence of tens of thousands of troops outside the hall made the officials let go of their unrealistic fantasies, and honestly rushed towards the outside of the Hall of Qinzheng.

Cheng Kai, who had gone back and forth, also waved to the soldiers and horses surrounding the Hall of Qinzheng to make way for a passage.

Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at the retreating figures of the Manchu officials, got up and walked slowly towards the outside of the hall.

"Marshal. No, Your Majesty!"

"Long live my emperor!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

"Your Majesty, you are the founding king of the country, and you should erect a stele of training children outside the palace to teach the virtues of future generations."

Liu Mingzhi looked at Cheng Kai quietly, Tang Ru and the others looked respectful: "How to stand?"

"Of course it's a warning to future generations and the officials of the DPRK and China to be self-restraining, to be loyal to the emperor and to love the country!"

Liu Mingzhi glanced around at the familiar imperial palace with complicated eyes.

"Self-restraint and courtesy, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism!

Every founding king hopes that his descendants will be self-restraining, loyal and patriotic.

But if I, Liu Mingzhi, were loyal to the emperor and patriotic, why would I stand here with bloody swords and soldiers? "

Cheng Kai and the others froze. Seeing Liu Mingzhi's complicated expression, they all fell silent, and hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to answer.

After a long time, Liu Mingzhi sighed faintly.

"Let's set up a stele without words. What should be engraved on the stele? Let future generations write it."

"Decree. Obey the order."

Liu Mingzhi glanced back at Nangong Meng who was comatose on Qian Lu beside the palace gate, and his old acquaintance Qian Lu who looked at him with a heavy expression. After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and raised his hand to pat Cheng Kai's shoulder.

"Find a jug of good vintage wine!"

Cheng Kai was stunned for a moment, as if he understood something, he nodded sadly.

"According to the order!"
