The short videos I watched from all dynasties

Chapter 114 If You Became the Emperor...

After watching the movie which lasted more than three hours, Li Ranran turned off her phone and took a rest.

Qing Dynasty, the 18th year of Daoguang

Even though the light curtain gave a spoiler of what the Qing government would face in the future, it only served to temporarily delay the outbreak of the "Opium War."

In the original history, Lin Zexu destroyed opium in Humen in the 19th year of Daoguang.

In April of the 4th year of the reign of Emperor Daoguang, the British Parliament passed the China War Bill.

The Opium War broke out on June 28, the 20th year of the reign of Emperor Daoguang.

The only information known to the Qing court at this point was that the Opium War would break out in two years, and the most discussed topic during this period was how to avoid war or how to win the war.

Emperor Daoguang himself preferred to avoid war. The court was facing financial difficulties and it would be difficult to support another war.

Lin Zexu and others believed that the reason for the failure of the war revealed in the light curtain was the officials' concealment of the truth and the poor military equipment... If preparations for war had been made in advance and the court had been reformed, the chances of winning the war would have been great.

Just as the court was arguing over this issue, some knowledgeable or evil-minded people began to plan riots and rebellion.

As early as Guangmu revealed the harmful effects of opium, the people began to spontaneously ban smoking. Although their strength was weak, it had awakened a large number of civilians.

It was another boring night. Li Ranran opened Station 13 with little interest and watched the videos that interested him.

[Q: If you were an emperor in ancient times, what position would you give to your good friend?]

Huh? Li Ranran's numb brain started working a little when she saw this question. My best friend will definitely enjoy the happiness with me. The King of One Word!!!

As someone who has been immersed in the Internet for many years, Li Ranran already knew that the answer to this question would definitely be very interesting, so she opened the comment section to see what everyone was saying.

<I am the emperor now, so he must establish an emperor no matter what [dog head]>

<Do what Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin did>

<Of course I will give him great wealth and power. I will make him the eunuch in charge of the East Factory and the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department>

<Good fellow, both of them are ruthless people, they are all castrated and become eunuchs>

<Adopted as his son and named King of Jin>

<The King of Jin is not popular>

<Sima Zhao, Sima Yan, Yang Guang, Li Zhi, Zhao Guangyi [eating melon]>

<Of course, he was named the Great General of the Universe and the Commander-in-Chief of the Six Directions’ Military Forces>

<You have to choose between Bai Ling and He Ding Hong>

<Call your best friend a princess and find her a handsome prince>

<I will let her be the emperor directly, and I will be the emperor emeritus [covering face]>

Sui Dynasty, 9th year of Kaihuang

Yang Jian hated Yang Guang for taking the throne with great effort but failing to keep it, and Yang Yong hated Yang Guang for killing him and taking away the throne that should have belonged to him.

Yang Jian thought about the common points of the several Jin kings mentioned in the light curtain and understood, "The good titles have been ruined."

"That's right." Whenever it came to matters related to Yang Guang, Yang Yong would interrupt and make sarcastic remarks.

"This King of Jin is very different from the other Kings of Jin. Look at those emperors. What level of emperors were Sima Zhao, Sima Yan, Li Zhi, and Zhao Guangyi? Tsk tsk tsk, they were not the kings who destroyed their country..."

When Yang Jian heard Yang Yong's yin-yang talk about Yang Guang, he felt uncomfortable.

Yes, they are all Kings of Jin, so why is Yang Guang the only one who became the king who lost his country!

Yang Jian said he had a headache!

Tang Dynasty, the second year of Zhenguan

Empress Changsun had given birth to her third son, but Li Shimin still named him Li Zhi according to the original history.

The ten-year-old Li Chengqian also smiled happily when he saw the small Li Zhi held in the arms of Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun patted little Li Zhi while observing Li Chengqian's expression. The light curtain had previously said that Crown Prince Li Chengqian's rebellion had failed and Li Zhi would become the future emperor.

These things made Empress Changsun very worried, and she did not want to see her own children end up fighting each other.

Li Shimin was also puzzled as to why the crown prince would rebel. Li Zhi was obviously his third son, so why did he take the throne instead of his second son Li Tai?

He ascended the throne through the "Xuanwu Gate", so did his sons do the same? This time, Guangmu listed Li Zhi among Sima Yan, Yang Guang and others. This made Li Shimin have to suspect that he also became the emperor through some kind of unrebellious method.

Song Dynasty, Qiande 7th year

Zhao Kuangyin was the first to attack and cursed: "What a good King Jin!"

Zhao Guangmei wished that Zhao Guangyi would be even more miserable, and silently said in her heart: Guangmu, please tell me more about the shameful things that Zhao Guangyi has done.

Ming Dynasty, the first year of Zhengde

Everyone in the hall knelt down. The light curtain actually said that the eunuch Liu Jin was the emperor! Then what was the proper emperor of the Ming Dynasty?

Zhu Houzhao also put away his previous attitude of watching for fun. He was aware of some of the things Liu Jin had done. How could he not know the reason for promoting him?

But...the imperial power is inviolable. Liu Jin violated all the taboos of being an emperor by establishing himself as emperor.

Zhu Houzhao immediately had Liu Jin brought to him.

"Tell me, why did the light curtain say that you were the emperor?"

Although Zhu Houzhao said this with a smile, Liu Jin still heard the chill in his words.

"Your Majesty, I... I don't know... There must be some kind of frame-up that caused Guangmu to misunderstand me." Liu Jin didn't dare to say that it was Guangmu's fault. Could Guangmu be wrong? Guangmu was a miracle, how could it be wrong!

Liu Jin could only say that it was a frame-up and misunderstanding, hoping that His Majesty would forgive him because he had always served him.

In his heart, Zhu Houzhao did not want to kill Liu Jin. Liu Jin was a good sword for Zhu Houzhao now, and he could not afford to lose it. But if he let him go easily, what would happen to his dignity as an emperor?

After all, Liu Jin had been with Zhu Houzhao for many years, and he could guess from Zhu Houzhao's facial expression: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault! I have caused Your Majesty to be talked about by thousands of people, I really deserve to die."

Liu Jin knelt down and kowtowed while crying: "But please give me a chance to catch the person who framed me. I will never let your reputation be damaged again."

Seeing that he was so sensible, Zhu Houzhao agreed. Zhu Houzhao looked at the light curtain with an unclear expression.

Zhu Houzhao believed that the national strength of the Ming Dynasty was weak during his father's time, and that his father had been a decoration for the court officials all his life! And he was unwilling to be a decoration!

After becoming emperor, there was only one way to deal with the civil servants, and that was to support the forces that were opposed to the civil servants.

"Guangmu, Guangmu, the next emperor is my cousin, why? Why did I die early..."

After having the answer in his mind, Zhu Houzhao made up his mind.
