The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 304 Zhu Yuanzhang: What? All my descendants are weird?!
[Tang Wenzong Li Ang was only 18 years old this year, only four months younger than his brother Jingzong Li Zhan.]

[In addition, his father and brother's actions were very disappointing, so when Emperor Wenzong of Tang first came to power, the ministers did not think highly of him.]

【But the performance of Wenzong, who had just succeeded to the throne, was eye-opening. 】

……

On the canopy.

The young emperor sat high on the dragon throne, his face forced to remain calm.

His Highness and his ministers stood in silence.

The eunuch standing next to the emperor read the decree aloud.

"According to the old Yuanhe rules, all the hawks and dogs in the five quarters must be released."

"The Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Salt and Iron, the Ministry of Revenue, and the prefectures shall pay tribute every year according to the old quota set by Xingyuan and shall not increase it."

"It is forbidden to increase the clothing and food rations of the eunuchs under the jurisdiction of the various departments of the inner court."

"On every odd day, all civil and military officials will go to court to discuss matters!"

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers looked at their superiors in astonishment.

……

[On December 826, , palace maids without jobs were released, more than people who were eating idle meals in the palace music academy, Hanlin academy artists, and garden directors and sorcerers were laid off, and the newly added clothing and food allowances for various departments were stopped.]

[The land occupied by the Imperial Horse Farm, the Ball Court, and the money and grain stored in recent years shall all be returned to the relevant authorities.]

[During the reigns of Emperor Muzong and Emperor Jingzong, it was announced that all tributes of embroidered and carved objects and beds decorated with gold baskets and precious stones would be stopped.]

[During the reign of Emperor Jingzong, the emperor only attended court once or twice a month. Emperor Wenzong restored the old system and attended court on odd days. He was very serious in discussing government affairs with his ministers during the court meetings, and sometimes he even forgot the time to leave because he was so involved.]

……

Big man.

"Liu Bang, do you think this little kid can eliminate the evils of the Tang Dynasty?"

Liu Bang yawned loudly, scratched his thigh and said boredly:
"Looking at all these, we can only say that he is a good person, but whether he can be a good emperor... is hard to say."

"As I said before, what the Tang Dynasty lacks right now is not good people or good emperors."

"What is lacking is decisiveness, an emperor with the determination to go forward regardless of the consequences."

Lu Zhi frowned, expressing a slightly different opinion.

"Prohibiting the eunuchs in charge of the various departments of the inner court from increasing their food and clothing, isn't this clearly a move against the eunuchs?"

"Isn't that considered determination? They are eunuchs who hold the power of life and death."

Liu Bang glanced at her.

Why are you so excited? Have you not given up on letting Liu Ying become the crown prince?

Why is this person so stubborn?
"Speaking, anyone can do it."

“It all depends on how you do it.”

"Li Ang's reforms hit the interests of the eunuchs in power."

"How could such an undisguised thought not make the eunuchs uneasy?"

"All the power is in their hands. What can he do?"

"I'll make you a bet that this man's various measures will be frustrated one after another!"

Lü Zhi looked at Liu Bang, who was full of confidence, nodded and said seriously:

"Okay, you're right."

"I don't bet."

Liu Bang was choked and gave her a helpless look.

"You've learned bad things."

Lu Zhi immediately fought back.

"I learn it from you!"

"Tsk tsk, I love your energy!"

"Bah! Disgusting."

"Hehe, I love you even more!"

"..."

……

[In February 827 AD, the reign was changed to Taihe.]

【The ministers worked day and night, disregarding their own interests, to offer advice and suggestions to the emperor.】

【Emperor Wenzong also spent the whole day with his ministers, discussing military and national affairs and deciding on the most important national policies for the future.】

[From the court's employment to the treasury's storage, from the disasters in various places to the construction of water conservancy projects, he asked about everything. ]

【From major policies to specific measures, all were discussed and studied in detail with the prime minister and ministers.】

[It is also required that various holidays or absences from court be arranged on even-numbered days as much as possible so as not to affect court attendance on odd days.]

[At the same time, Emperor Wenzong also ordered the casting of the "Seal of the Court of Censors", changing the situation where censors had to apply for seals from other departments when submitting memorials to the emperor in order to prevent the leakage of secrets.]

……

Tang Xianzong Period
Li Chun's eyes lit up as he looked at the sky.

"I think Li Han is not bad, so why not just make him the Crown Prince!"

Guo frowned, looking a little dissatisfied.

"He is Heng'er's son... He surpassed his father to become the crown prince..."

"Isn't that against etiquette?"

Li Chun raised his eyebrows, slapped his palm on the table, and shouted loudly:
"What time has it been!"

"How can etiquette and law be so inconvenient!"

"Will you let him succeed to the throne and completely destroy the good situation I have created?!"

"That's it!"

"I said so!"

……

[In March 828 AD, Emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty issued an imperial decree to select candidates based on their virtue, integrity, and outspokenness.] [As a result, candidates recommended by various places came to Kyoto to take the exam.]

[Among them, there was a candidate named Liu Fen, who pointed out in his examination paper that the eunuchs’ monopoly of power was detrimental to the country and the people.]

He believed that the overthrow of the country, the chaos of the whole country, and the crisis of the government were all caused by the eunuchs' monopoly of power. He also discussed the many dangers of the feudal lords' usurpation of power and the dominance of treacherous officials. He advocated that in order to stabilize the country, eunuchs should be excluded, political power should be handed over to the prime minister, and military power should be handed over to generals. 】

[The examiners passed it around and praised it highly, thinking it was a rare and excellent piece of writing.]

[However, when it came time to decide on the admission, no one dared to express their opinion, because if Liu Fen was admitted, they would offend the eunuchs and their own official positions would be in jeopardy.]

[Tang Wenzong agreed with Liu Fen's views, but because he was not yet fully prepared, he had to appoint other candidates, but did not dare to appoint Liu Fen.]

……

{History says that Emperor Wenzong liked to discuss things with his ministers, but his decision-making ability was not good. If he had power, who would be so good at making decisions?}
{Those people are really talking without any worries.}
{He still has the ways of an emperor but not the talent of an emperor.}
{He had no choice. It wasn't that he didn't want to make the decision, but the eunuchs behind him were unwilling to do so.}
{To be honest, even in the late Tang Dynasty, most of the emperors were very good emperors, all of whom had ideals and ambitions, while in the Ming Dynasty, except for the first three, all the others were weird.}
……

Late Han Dynasty (Timeline of Cao Cao's surprise attack on Yizhou and capture of Liu Bei.)
Zhuge Liang looked at the sky and sighed:

"If anyone claims to be a state murderer, no one in the state will forgive him!"

"Emperors Xianzong and Jingzong were murdered. Who among these ministers can be exempted from the unforgivable crime?"

"How can they stand before the new emperor?"

"The power of eunuchs... has expanded!"

"But it's not like the eunuchs during the reigns of Emperors Huan and Ling who killed loyal and good ministers and wiped out all the scholars in the world!"

"There is no such thing as Cai Zhonglang being shaved and shackled, or Zhang Yuanjie fleeing!"

"Why are the ministers of Emperor Wenzong's reign afraid not to voice their public outrage?!"

"It is a pity that the country has no one to this extent!"

Cao Cao, who was drinking rice wine, glanced at Liu Bei who was throwing green plums into his mouth and muttered quietly:

"Why do I feel that... your 'Prime Minister' is hinting at something?"

Liu Bei chewed the green plum in his mouth and looked at Cao Cao with a smile:

"King Wei is worrying too much."

Cao Cao's complexion improved slightly.

"Kong Ming will scold you again."

Cao Cao's face turned completely black!

Big-eared thief! If I hadn't been reluctant to part with Kong Ming...

Hateful!
Why are Yunchang and Kongming so stubborn?

How can this big-eared thief be better than me!

……

Datang.

Li Shimin looked at Tang Wenzong's choice in the sky and sighed secretly.

The little bit of hope that rose up disappeared in an instant.

They are full of confidence when discussing national policies, but seem hesitant when it comes to implementation.

The so-called eunuch control, to put it bluntly, is simply because the emperor is afraid of death.

But this is the responsibility of the Son of Heaven, and it cannot be done for the sake of seeking profit or avoiding harm.

And this whole court of ministers...

Li Shimin looked at the civil officials who were arguing and even fighting over whether or not to bring the political power under the secret cabinet, and were then pushed aside by the military officers.

He looked again at the ministers who were pretending to be dead in the sky.

No integrity!

……

Ming dynasty.

"Look, girl!"

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at the sky and said loudly:
"After three generations of our Ming Dynasty, they are all weird!"

"Yeah!"

Old Zhu paced back and forth on the ground excitedly.

"It's good to be weird, it's good to be weird!"

"Hehehe! How powerful must these descendants be to be able to surpass me and Biao'er!"

"Good! Good!"

Empress Ma was confused as she watched Zhu Yuanzhang walking around in circles.

"That's enough, stop wandering around! You're like a donkey pulling a millstone!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped and sat down next to Empress Ma.

"Sister! We are so happy!"

"Each generation is a freak, even the Han Dynasty didn't dare to say so!"

Queen Ma poured him a cup of tea and said calmly:
"I know, I know. Drink some water!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him lightly and snorted, but did not dare to talk back.

He picked up the jade cup and drank it down directly, then put the cup down, stood up and walked out.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

Queen Ma asked hurriedly.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even pause, he just waved his hand and said:

"Let's go find Biao'er!"

Queen Ma looked at Old Zhu who was getting farther and farther away and smiled helplessly.

"It's really hard for you not to show it off."

Then he looked towards the sky.

"Strange? Chongba can finally put the worry down."

"But...what about that Jiajing?"
