Chapter 530: Reverence for Imperial Power

In the middle and late period of the previous dynasty, the five great families rose rapidly and radiated dazzling brilliance. At that time, the emperor of the previous dynasty was incompetent and indulged in sensual pleasures all day long, and did not care about state affairs.

Gradually, the power of the government fell into the hands of aristocratic families. Relying on the power and wealth in their hands, these aristocratic families began to manipulate the situation in the court at will.

As time went on, the phenomenon of aristocratic families becoming more and more powerful, and the prejudice of family background became more and more deeply rooted in people's minds. The selection of officials in the court was no longer based on their talents and morals, but entirely on their background.

This corrupt personnel system makes it impossible for people with real talent and knowledge to serve the country, while those who rely on family power to rise to power are just sitting there doing nothing and exploiting the people.

Due to the debauchery and tyranny of the previous rulers and the greed and exploitation of the aristocratic families, social contradictions became increasingly intensified. The vast majority of people lived in dire straits and suffered unspeakably. Finally, people who could no longer bear it raised the banner of rebellion, and the whole world fell into chaos, with people suffering and their lives in misery.

However, in this chaotic time, the founding emperor of our Dachong Dynasty came out of nowhere. He was wise and brave, leading the army of justice to fight north and south, overcoming countless hardships and obstacles, and finally successfully ended this protracted war. When the army arrived at the gates of Yuanjing, the originally impregnable city unexpectedly opened by itself.

It turned out that the five major families had secretly colluded and conspired to kill the last emperor of the previous dynasty, and took the initiative to open the city gates to welcome the new emperor into Beijing.

Faced with this situation, the new emperor was angry, but considering that the five great families had made contributions in overthrowing the previous dynasty, and that they now had deep roots and great power, if he acted rashly against them, it might cause greater turmoil. Therefore, the new emperor had to endure it for the time being.

However, the five great families were proud of their achievements. After more than a hundred years of painstaking management and having gone through the trials and tribulations of two dynasties, their relationships had long been complicated and intertwined like a huge spider web.

On the surface, they showed respect to the imperial power, but in reality, they never took it seriously. Deep down, what they pursued was only the interests of the aristocratic families themselves.

Although Your Majesty is a man of great talent and strategy, and has been weakening and suppressing the arrogance of the five major families through a series of thundering measures over the years, they have not truly submitted to our Da Chong Dynasty, nor have they willingly pledged allegiance to Your Majesty from the bottom of their hearts.

The former Minister of Works was personally interrogated by Your Majesty. His confession said that they even intended to murder Your Majesty and the Grand Princess and change the dynasty.

This also made you determined to clean up the cancer of the five major families.

After a long, in-depth and meticulous investigation, it was found that in recent years, among these five major families, the Wang family, which is ambitious and has attempted to get its hands on the throne, is the most arrogant and domineering.

The instigator of all the conspiracies and intrigues was none other than the sinister Wang Fengyu!

Such traitors and rebels must never be tolerated.

Not only should he be killed, but he should also be publicly executed in front of the other four great families in order to deter those with evil intentions.

Only in this way can everyone understand that those who dare to offend the imperial power will be severely punished and there will be no chance of luck.

For the officials in the court and the common people, they should treat the imperial power and His Majesty with both awe and fear.

Only in this way can the stability of the government be ensured and the country be forever secure. And the evil leader Wang Fengyu, who was full of evil, could be used as the chicken in "killing the chicken to scare the monkey".

By severely punishing him, it can serve as a warning to others to behave themselves and obey the emperor's orders.

Only in this way will they sincerely submit to the emperor's kindness and power and dare not disobey him in the slightest."
