The opening inventory of the top ten young emperors

After Empress Dowager Dou finished speaking, she slammed the table next to her. The servants and eunuchs present all knelt down in fear. Except for Liu Che, the others dared not even breathe.
Liu Che looked grim: "Grandmother, I don't have such an idea. If you insist on thinking so, I can't do anything about it."

"All right, all right. Your Majesty has ascended the throne and has become powerful. You no longer need Grandmother. Do you want to demote me to that Changmen Palace? All right, very good! You are such a good emperor!"
"Grandmother!" Liu Che could no longer bear it. "Where is the Changmen Palace? I think this scroll is just nonsense. There must be a demon who wants to disrupt the Han Dynasty..."

As soon as Liu Che finished speaking, he heard Lei Xiaomeng's voice in the heavenly scroll slowly saying:
[Some people say that when Emperor Wu of Han first ascended the throne, he established the Mingtang mainly to weaken the power of the Dou clan. But in fact, the real purpose of Liu Che's establishment of the Mingtang was to seize power from the Dou clan, but more importantly to deal with the vassal kings in Chang'an.]
[So, when this Mingtang was first established, it was not just the Empress Dowager's "cake" that was touched.]

[At that time, many powerful royal families found various reasons not to return to their own fiefdoms. They stayed in Chang'an and stirred up trouble, which brought great risks to the consolidation of Liu Che's throne.]
【Compared to the Empress Dowager who supported him to ascend to the throne, Liu Che initially just wanted to target them. 】

Just to deal with the vassal kings?
Empress Dowager Dou was stunned, and Liu Che's expression became even uglier.

Can't Tianjuan finish speaking in one breath?
He had just said that the Heavenly Scroll appeared to disrupt the Han Dynasty, and now it has taken such a turn.

This scroll was indeed very unfriendly to him. He had been expecting it to reveal the secrets of heaven to him. But now, let alone the secrets of heaven, he was about to be deserted by everyone.

Queen Mother Wang was quite smart. Seeing this, she quickly stepped forward to support Old Queen Mother Dou and asked her to sit down. "Mother, please be patient. How about we wait until we hear what the Heavenly Scroll says before making a conclusion? Your Majesty being wronged is a small matter, but it is a big deal if you get angry and hurt your body!"
Empress Dowager Dou had no reason to use this opportunity, so she could only say with an unpleasant expression: "Humph, you are all so filial!"

But after this incident, everyone around could finally read the Heavenly Scroll with peace of mind.

[However, although the establishment of Mingtang was not originally intended to specifically deal with the Dou family, the city of Chang'an was deeply rooted in the city, and in the process of Emperor Wu of Han's implementation of this matter, it was inevitable that the interests of some members of the Dou family would be affected.]
[How could the Dou clan members whose interests were affected watch themselves suffer? Naturally, they went to complain to the Empress Dowager. When they complained, they naturally exaggerated the story, which immediately angered the Empress Dowager Dou.]

[So, Empress Dowager Dou immediately asked Liu Che to cancel the Mingtang. Not only that, she was still not satisfied, and even arrested and executed the two officials who had pushed for this matter.]

【Okay, let’s think about this now. 】
[What did the newly enthroned Emperor Wu of Han think of this approach? ]
[Isn't this the same as rubbing his face against the ground? ]

【Not only that, this incident shows that Empress Dowager Dou’s power was unmatched at the time.】
[The Dou clan members, relying on the support of the old queen mother, have become so arrogant that they even ignore His Majesty the Emperor.]

[The emperor still had to listen to the advice of the officials, consider their attitudes, and take care of the people. But the Dou family didn't care about these things at all. If an official in the court offended them, they would kill him at will, and the emperor couldn't do anything about it.]
[In other words, offending the Dou family is more terrible than offending the emperor.]

At this point, a cartoon of an old queen angrily commanding people to chop off heads appeared in the scroll, with the little emperor trembling beside her. Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he glared at the little emperor in the scroll: "This little Liu Che is too cowardly. If it were me, I would just chop off that troublemaker and use his head as a sacrifice to the heaven."
"The threat of foreign relatives is indeed not to be underestimated. Our dynasty must also pay attention to it in the future." Crown Prince Zhu Biao nodded frequently, "I read history books and remember that the Western Han Dynasty fell because of this. So Emperor Wu of Han's measures at this time are not too drastic. It can only be regarded as a precaution."

"Biaoer, how do you think our Ming Dynasty should prevent chaos caused by external relatives?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"Hasn't Father already implemented it? Why is there any need to test his son?"
"Oh? Tell me."

"Father, the emperor always selects concubines from among the common people. This way, many corrupt officials who want to use women to gain power will be cut off from retreat."
"Biao'er is right, but it's far from enough."
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flickered.

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang only called the crown prince Zhu Biao to accompany him, and did not call anyone else.
Because he felt more and more that being able to appear on the Heavenly Scroll was not necessarily a good thing. So he calculated that the Heavenly Scroll was about to appear again, so he sent his brothers to patrol the camp outside the capital.

When he first started to conquer the world, his sons all married girls from his old friends' families. At that time, he just wanted to marry the girls from the same family and didn't think too much about it. Now, it seems that he needs to think about it carefully.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Zhu Biao suddenly ask: "Father, I remember the Heavenly Scroll mentioned something about burning the Qinggong Tower.
But later, I sent people to search all the buildings, temples, Taoist temples, and even restaurants in Daming, but I had never heard of this name. Father, do you have any impression of it? Could it be that it is in my hometown of Fengyang?"

"Burning down the Qinggong Building? Biao'er still remembers this?" A trace of relief flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes. He thought that Biao'er was worthy of being his. Even his focus was exactly the same as his.
"Does your Majesty have any ideas?" Zhu Biao did not point it out.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "I think what this scroll says is just like the storytellers in a teahouse. Although some of the stories are adapted from true events, some of them are exaggerated to attract attention.
And even if there is no celebration building, the other buildings and pavilions are the same, they are just names, it depends on whether the event will happen or not. "

Zhu Biao pondered for a moment, then bowed to his father and said, "Father, you are wise. I am not as good as you."

Qin Dynasty.
Qin Shi Huang: "The trouble caused by my relatives should not be underestimated, Zhao Gao..."
"His Majesty."
"Have you finished the matter I asked you to check last time?"
"Your Majesty is wise. I have registered the concubines in the harem. All those who have relatives are on the list. However, many of the concubines were princesses and noble ladies presented by the six countries. Their countries have all been destroyed."
"Very good." Qin Shihuang nodded.

The image of the little emperor trembling in fear disappeared, and was replaced by a portrait of Emperor Wu of Han that Lei Xiaomeng found in historical records. The portrait looked majestic and imposing.

[But what these relatives never expected was that they were not facing any ordinary emperor, but Emperor Wu of Han, who was almost as famous as Qin Shi Huang in later generations.]
【So, the feud was completely settled at this time. And the fact proved that Emperor Wu of Han was the most vindictive person! 】
