Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 15 I’m going to show you what acting is, and I’ve spent a lot of money just to fool you.

Zhu Youjian looked at Li Laiheng with interest. This guy was angry just now and looked like he wanted to fight him desperately, but now he was immersed in his own world.

it works!

Zhu Youjian didn't know if his bitterness card could impress Li Laiheng.

Considering the history of later generations, Li Laiheng has his own justice in his heart.

Otherwise, he would not have still adhered to the banner of the Ming Dynasty in the face of certain death, and at the last moment, he would have thrown his whole family into the sea of ​​​​fire.

He couldn't tell what justice Li Laiheng felt in his heart, but this man was really a national hero!

It would be great if we could pull such a capable hero over...

Now that Li Laiheng has been persuaded, the best way to strike while the iron is hot is to strike!

Zhu You calmed down and slowly put on the dragon robe. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the courtiers who dared not speak for the rest of their lives:

"I am not a king who has subjugated my country. However, all the ministers deserve to be killed. This is why the Ming Dynasty has reached its current situation."

Li Laiheng smiled bitterly, he could not refute the emperor's words.

His great-uncle King Chuang also said something similar - the emperor's heart is not bad, it was the officials below who deceived the superiors and deceived the subordinates, forcing us to survive, and that's why we rebelled against him.

When Zhu Youjian saw that Li Laiheng agreed, he reclined on the dragon chair again.

At this moment, Zhu Youjian became an actor!

Sadness covered his face, and his tone was sad and full of reluctance:

"My time has passed..."

Li Laiheng raised his head suddenly, and what he saw was the emperor's red eyes.

What kind of eyes are these!

Sadness is full of nostalgia and reluctance.

He just felt like he was seeing an old father. When he was about to die, his eyes were full of love and reluctance for his children.

Zhu Youjian, who is possessed by the movie king, almost believes it when he says it:

"I don't owe anyone, but I owe a lot to the people. This city of Beijing will be your Li family's world from now on..."

"After my death, I will have no face to see my ancestors in the ground. I should take off my crown and cover my face with my hair. You can split my corpse, but don't hurt any of my people."

Li Laiheng trembled all over:

This is a good emperor!

He sighed and murmured: "You don't have to die, as long as you surrender...surrender..."

Surrender to what?

Li Zicheng?

Li Laiheng himself didn’t believe this!

Would Li Zicheng let such a huge threat go without killing him?

……

The emperor is a good emperor!

There are so many emperors in this world, how can there be one like Emperor Chongzhen who wears clothes covered with patches?

The emperor is a good emperor, and the people are also good people.

But why has it come to a life-or-death situation?

……

Li Laiheng was in extremely complicated mood...

Who is to blame?

……

"But!"

Seeing Li Laiheng fall into the trap, Zhu Youjian changed the topic and shouted loudly, startling everyone.

"But Li Zicheng can't sit on the throne!"

Did Li Zicheng become emperor?

Done.

After the city of Beijing was captured, the officials of the Ming Dynasty turned to Li Zicheng's command one after another. In fact, the local officials even resisted the Ming army and raised the banner of Chuangwang.

It can be said that at that moment, King Chuang was the master of the world!

However, Li Zicheng, who hated all officials, began to impose high wages after taking over Beijing.

According to historical records, Li Zicheng found a total of more than 3 taels of silver from the Ming Dynasty's Ministry of Household Warehouses and palace funds. He also pried off the gold and silver decorations in the palace, and obtained a total of less than 10 taels of silver.

He paid the officials...

Incredible!

The historical records here are relatively confusing, but it is generally accepted that the minimum amount of silver Li Zicheng received was between 3000 million taels and 7000 million taels...

At least it is equivalent to the total amount of taxes from a few to more than ten years in the Ming Dynasty!

……

Even these courtiers who were paid by Li Zicheng were able to ruin the Ming Dynasty for their own benefit.

How could they tolerate Li Zicheng's behavior!

So, this vigorous leader of the Peasant Rebellion Army, after being emperor for 43 days, disappeared like a flash in the pan...

As vested interests, the role played by the officials and gentry in this can be understood by just thinking about it with your toes.

……

"impossible!"

Hearing the emperor's words, Li Laiheng jumped up suddenly and pointed at Chongzhen: "My uncle conquered the world for the people, and even promulgated the national policy of not paying for food..."

"Open the door to welcome King Chuang. King Chuang will not accept food when he comes..."

Li Laiheng couldn't talk any more!

Even Li Laiheng himself didn't believe this rumor spread by Li Zicheng to stabilize the people!

Without food, what will the millions of soldiers eat and drink?

As one of the main generals, Li Laiheng naturally knew that since the inception of the Chuang Army, part of the army's salary came from the treasury of various places...

Most of the food and wages are obtained through hard labor!

Moreover, when they entered Beijing this time, everyone in the Chuang army knew that they could no longer extract money from the people, so they all set their sights on the officials and gentry, and even...

The adoptive father Li Guo once said in a subtle way that after His Majesty decided to use up all the officials in the capital...

Continue to implement the payment policy!

In this case, will the group of respectful Shuoshu behind them still support them?

The more Li Laiheng thought about it, the more frightened he became...

Looking at the emperor's eyes that seemed to see everything, Li Laiheng couldn't help but shudder.

Li Laiheng suddenly raised his head and shouted hysterically: "You're talking nonsense!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Youjian looked up to the sky and laughed so hard that he was out of breath.

After his breathing had calmed down, he waved his hand to signal Li Laiheng to calm down and said slowly:

"If not, how about I make a bet with you?"

"Whoops, whoops!" Li Laiheng blew out a few clouds of white mist from his nose and gritted his teeth and said, "Say it!"

Zhu Youjian relaxed his posture and leaned lazily on the dragon chair: "If my words come true, you must agree to one condition."

"What conditions!" Li Laiheng glared at Chongzhen.

"Haha." Zhu Youjian smiled and shook his head: "I won't tell you now, but you will know later."

Later, when he was in college, Zhu Youjian planned to take the civil service exam first and then become an official, so he almost broke through the thick and black studies. Who knew that he would eventually end up on the road of coding and becoming a code farmer... I thought that this kind of emperor's skills would be useless. I went up, but I didn’t expect to arrive at the end of Ming Dynasty.

This is not up to me!

Zhu Youjian knew that in this situation, even if he moved Li Laiheng, he would not be able to persuade him to change his family. In this case, it was better to put a root in Li Laiheng's heart.

As long as this guy keeps his promise, judging from Li Laiheng's subsequent actions, there is no fear of him going back on his word.

……

There is a group of people whose spit is filled with nails!

It can be said that they are stupid, but it is this group of "idiots" who must do what they say and practice what they say, and they have supported the backbone of China at critical moments!

Li Laiheng is such a person who sticks to his word.

"There's just one condition. You don't need to ask what it is, you just need to tell me whether you dare to accept this bet!"

"You want me to commit suicide?" Li Laiheng looked at Chongzhen mockingly and secretly cursed:

Could it be that the old emperor knew what E was capable of and wanted to cut off E to weaken the strength of E Dashun's army?
