The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 572: Can the Death-Free Gold Medal really save you from death? When the Death-Free Gold Medal meets the Imperial Sword, which one is stronger? !

"Gold medal of immunity from death!? I'm familiar with this!"

Great Sui, Yang Guang slapped his forehead, a smile appeared on his face, and he waved his hand to the ministers in front of him and said generously:

"Do you still have the golden medal of immunity from death in your hands?"

King Patron Yang Lin stood up and said to Yang Guang: "This is a gift from the late emperor. I dare not not treasure it!"

Are you kidding? The golden medal of immunity from death can really save you from death.

At least this was the case in the Sui Dynasty. Yang Jian inherited the legal system of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, along with the golden medals of immunity from death that the Northern Zhou Dynasty had previously issued to its ministers.

He was extremely arrogant and gave generous rewards to his old brothers who helped him to the top.

With the golden medal of immunity from death, not only could the government raise slaves, it could also carve out pieces of land and go against the national taxation system.

It can be said that it was the happiest era for military heroes and powerful people. As a result of Yang Jian's actions, the power of aristocratic families had the opportunity to rise again.

And on Liangshan Lake, in the gathering hall, many heroes turned their eyes to the little whirlwind Chai Jin, who had been drinking alone next to them.

"Gold medal of immunity from death? I remember that Mr. Chai also had one at home. I wonder how it is now?"

Speaking of this Black Whirlwind Li Kui, he specializes in exposing people's shortcomings and never changes his ways despite repeated warnings. Now he is even getting close to them and attacking them with all his might, leaving Chai Jin in tears.

"You black bastard, why are you bringing up all these things? Why don't you apologize to Master Chai right now?"

Song Jiang on the stage hurriedly pulled Black Whirlwind Li Kui and said to Chai Jin.

But Mr. Chai obviously didn't care. Instead, he looked sad and said with deep sympathy:

"Alas! To be honest, this Zhao family emperor really doesn't give us a way out. He is simply going back on his word! He doesn't recognize the red letter of trust from my Chai family at all!"

The audiences from different time and space each have their own difficulties. They look at the sky with sad faces, ready to see what the sky says about the golden medal of immunity from death.

[The death-free gold medal, as mentioned before, has existed since ancient times, but it is not made of gold. It is a document issued by the emperor himself or by the government.]

[With this thing, theoretically you can avoid death nine times. Nine times! ]

[The era when the red-lettered iron certificate and the golden medal of immunity from death were most prevalent should be the Northern and Southern Dynasties. At that time, these things were more trustworthy. ]

Dugu Xin: "Oh, yes, yes, the red seal and iron certificate that Yuwen Tai gave me is still at home. So what? Didn't Yuwen Hu tear it up anyway?"

The most powerful father-in-law in history said he had something to say.

[Of course, when all this came to the hands of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, things got a little distorted. He first reduced the number of death-free gold medals to three.]

[And the gold medal of immunity from death cannot save one from death. ]

[Afterwards, he started to distribute death-free gold medals to the heroes in bulk. How many were there? ]

[It is said that in the official circles of the Hongwu court at that time, almost everyone had a red-lettered iron certificate and a golden medal of immunity from death, on which were engraved Zhu's seal.]

Seeing this, it is the Ming Dynasty, during the Hongwu period.

In the main hall of the Yingtianfu Palace, Old Zhu's expression was a little unbearable.

He felt that today's video was directed at him, and he had solid evidence!
Thinking in his heart, Old Zhu stared at the ministers below with an amusement look on his face, which made his old brothers below silent.

"Zhongba, why are you so fierce? You have gone through mountains of swords and seas of fire. Why are you showing off here?"

Empress Ma's words brought Zhu Yuanzhang back to his original state, and the ministers below finally breathed a sigh of relief. Their gratitude to the Empress was like a torrent of water, endless. If it weren't for the Empress, they would have died here.

May your Majesty live a long life!
On the other hand, in the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin had seen the introduction of Zhu Yuanzhang more than once, and he had a very good impression of this successor monarch who drove out the Tartars and rebuilt China.

However, I am not optimistic about his behavior of giving away the gold medal of immunity from death as wholesale free gifts.

"The golden medal of immunity from death can only be obtained by meritorious officials and important ministers. Even though our Tang Dynasty is full of talented people and has destroyed countless countries, there are only a few people who can obtain it."

As he spoke, Li Shimin looked down. Among the civil officials, there was only Li Ji (Xu Maogong), and among the military generals, there were only veteran generals such as Li Jing and Yuchi Gong.

Not even Qin Qiong!
"Your Majesty is absolutely right. The indiscriminate issuance of death-free gold medals will probably make the court's laws like waste paper. The descendants of high-ranking officials will trample on the law and take human lives lightly, but they will not be able to punish them!"

Changsun Wuji below spoke righteously, his righteousness almost overflowing from his body.

The role of the golden medal of immunity from death in the Sui and Tang dynasties was that it allowed Xue Rengui's family to maintain their aristocratic status even after they offended Wu Zetian. One can imagine how effective it was.

However, what these "ancients" did not expect was that the Ming Dynasty eight hundred years later would open their eyes and let them see what the new dynasty's elegant politics was.

[The consequences of Zhu's indiscriminate issuance of death-free gold medals soon became apparent. With the gold medals as a guarantee, his former brothers quickly became corrupt, and this led to the complete collapse of the top-level system of the Ming Dynasty court.]

[One of the officials embezzled the relief grain for the people because his salary was too low. As a result, because of the golden medal of immunity from death, he was only beaten with a few sticks and returned home to be an old man.]

[This situation also had a great impact on the newly born Ming Dynasty. Everyone felt that they had a golden ticket to avoid death, and began to become bolder.]

[The most outstanding one was Prime Minister Hu Weiyong, who felt that he could appropriately challenge Zhu's authority.]

"Ahem! Take the throne! I definitely don't mean to do that. Queen, please save me!"

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu period.

Hu Weiyong looked at the sky with his eyes blazing with fire, as if he wanted to pull out this guy who was talking nonsense and give him a beating.

But everyone knows that the video on the sky screen has shown the whipping of Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang more than once or twice, and Zhu Yuanzhang has long been accustomed to it.

He waved his hand to let Hu Weiyong stand up, then looked down at the ministers below and smiled, making everyone tremble:
"Has my golden medal of immunity from death made you too presumptuous? Do you need me to help you feel better?"

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

The ministers were so frightened that they trembled and dared not even look up.

At this moment, Zhao Kuangyin in another time and space felt the same way.

The newly established Song Dynasty had too many meritorious officials. In order to appease these military leaders who had lost their military power, the Song Dynasty could only give them land and gold and silver.

Moreover, their safety had to be ensured, and the number of red seals and iron certificates issued was almost turning into a money printing machine.

However, the next sentence on the sky curtain left the simple emperors of the Song Dynasty, Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty dumbfounded.

[After realizing Hu Weiyong's intention to rebel, Zhu Yuanzhang took action without hesitation, and the golden medal of immunity from death was of no use at all.]

[This Ming Dynasty emperor also creatively invented a new word - "to die".]

[That is to say, your sins are enough to earn you several deaths. As we all know, the death-free gold medal can only last three times. You will have to bear the consequences of the rest! ]

[Moreover, this mathematician always mentions the Three Clans and the Nine Clans, frequently making extensive inferences about them. The death-free gold medal is like waste paper in the hands of this master...]
