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

Chapter 757: The Yang family generals defended Bao Zheng! Zhu Yuanzhang: I still feel a little unhappy after reading this!
The king of a country is written as such a useless person who can't even intimidate a few ministers. Is he worthy of being called an emperor?
Although the emperors came from different dynasties, their thoughts at this moment were surprisingly consistent.

They are all supreme rulers, so naturally they cannot stand seeing their subjects being so ignorant of their proper place.

The emperor in this play is just like a puppet, at the mercy of his subjects!

In this case, what is the use of imperial power?
Of course, many emperors also secretly rejoiced.

Fortunately, such a thing did not happen in my dynasty, otherwise how could I face my ancestors!
……

Han Dynasty plane.

Liu Chan held his chin and read the contents on the sky curtain, and rarely showed a knowing smile.

What was the name of this emperor of later generations?

Judging from the situation, he might be the same as me, who made my father shake his head when I was young.

However, this emperor was more thoughtful than his father and immediately arranged five ministers to assist him.

Back then, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang also gave such earnest instructions before his death, asking those old ministers to assist him.

Liu Chan touched his beard and couldn't help but sigh inwardly that being an emperor would be difficult if he didn't have a few capable ministers around him.

But then again, how unreliable does this have to be to make dad so worried?
It seems that every dynasty is bound to have such a worrying emperor, and I am no exception.

After thinking about it, Liu Chan felt a lot more at ease.

As for Bao Zheng, Liu Chan had heard a little about him and found him to be a rare loyal minister.

It would be a waste of talent if such a capable minister were to die in vain.

The late emperor probably left behind so many capable ministers and generals to prevent such stupid things from happening.

Thinking of this, Liu Chan couldn't help but nodded.

Although this younger generation was incompetent, fortunately, the ministers left by the previous emperor still remembered their duties.

It seems that although I didn't do very well back then, at least I didn't cause Prime Minister Zhuge and others to worry too much... probably.

……

Song Dynasty plane.

Zhao Kuangyin looked at the contents on the skylight, frowned and rubbed his temples.

What should I do if I still feel unhappy?
The performance of this younger emperor really gave him a headache.

If an emperor is so incompetent that he needs five ministers to protect him, this is not just incompetence, it is something that will be deeply recorded in history books!
Could it be that this young emperor treated the throne as a rocking chair, thinking that he could rest easy with his ministers protecting him?
But on second thought, Zhao Kuangyin felt that it was really difficult to say anything about this matter.

He had also heard of Bao Zheng in previous videos. He was indeed a rare honest official.

It would be a huge loss if such a loyal minister were to die in vain.

Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but recall the situation when he was in the court.

If there had not been a few ministers who dared to speak the truth at that time, even the foundation of the Northern Song Dynasty would have been difficult to stabilize.

Although the emperor is the supreme ruler, if there are few ministers who dare to give direct criticism, how can the court be prosperous?

Any wise ruler, even if he cannot bear to hear unpleasant words, will not kill people for a few straightforward criticisms.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kuangyin felt that the late emperor had good intentions in leaving behind these five ministers.

Rather than letting your son listen to the words of treacherous people and do evil things, it is better to arrange a few old ministers for him who can control him.

……

Ming Dynasty plane.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the contents on the sky curtain, and his eyes gradually became sharp.

He was very familiar with this plot. Wasn't it just a replica of The Yang Family Generals?
It was just that this time it was five ministers who joined forces, and they were even more arrogant than the Yang family. Thinking that these meritorious nobles dared to form an alliance to fight against the imperial power, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned more and more.

Although these ministers are trying to protect loyal officials, once this situation is formed, the consequences will be no joke.

Zhu Yuanzhang twirled his beard unconsciously, thinking in his mind.

He knew the moral qualities of these meritorious officials and nobles too well. They would shine with a little sunshine, but if they were allowed to stick together, what would happen?

Not to mention that these people are holding the treasures bestowed by the previous emperor. Isn't this a clear attempt to undermine the imperial power?
Although with his own methods, this situation would definitely not occur when he was in power.

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered, and any slight disturbance would be uprooted immediately by him.

But what about later generations? Can those young emperors suppress these old foxes?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of his grandson Zhu Yunwen.

If this kid were allowed to ascend the throne, the entire court would be filled with the students and former officials of those old ministers.

By then, these people will stick together for warmth and won’t even take the emperor seriously.

Zhu Yuanzhang touched his chin, thinking that this matter needed some preparation in advance.

Instead of waiting for these heroes to become powerful, it is better to give them some relief as soon as possible.

These people seem loyal now, but who knows if they will change in a few years?

But this is indeed cowardly enough for the emperor.

The country and the people are not to be trifled with. If these meritorious officials and nobles are allowed to take advantage of it, it will be a big trouble!

No matter who the loyal ministers and generals are, as long as they dare to form an alliance, it would be a challenge to the imperial power!
It's better to deal with this kind of thing as soon as possible!

……

Although the emperors were all very angry.

But this scene made people of all dynasties feel happy!
It would be a blessing for the people if there were a few ministers in the court who dared to speak the truth.

These loyal old ministers are not afraid of the emperor's wrath, and they all work for the peace of the people of the world!
Having such ministers in the court to help the emperor share his worries is much better than having those treacherous ministers who can only flatter and fawn on him.

What's more, these ministers were all selected by the late emperor himself, and they truly cared about the country.

It would be great if this kind of thing could happen more often, and it would be great if every dynasty could have a few ministers like this who are not afraid of death.

If this were true, then the people of the world would be blessed. At least they wouldn't have to worry about the emperor making stupid decisions and bringing disaster to the people.

If every incompetent emperor had a few ministers who dared to speak out and give advice, most of the unjust cases and grievances in history would probably be reduced.

Just like Lord Bao Zheng, if it weren't for these loyal ministers, he would have been beheaded long ago!
However, such a situation as the one on the sky curtain is really rare.

It is a rare sight to have so many loyal ministers working together.

If this had happened in other dynasties, they would have been wiped out long ago!
It seems that although this emperor was incompetent, he was lucky.

At least there are so many ministers around me who dare to speak the truth.

Otherwise, who knows what will become of this country.

[The Yang Family Generals, this name is familiar to everyone, but do you know what the real Yang Family Generals were like in history? ]

[Yang Ye, courtesy name Jiye, was nicknamed "Yang the Invincible". This was not just an exaggeration, he had real military exploits! ]

[In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, Yang Ye was famous for his military prowess. He led his army to fight against the Khitan army and made countless military achievements. He was a leader in the army at that time.]

[Interestingly, Yang Ye first served as an official in the Northern Han Dynasty. After the fall of the Northern Han Dynasty, he defected to the Northern Song Dynasty.]
