Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

"Your Majesty once said that those who carry firewood for the people should not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow. Although we, the people of Yingtian Prefecture, have had our firewood taken away, Your Majesty has never allowed us to freeze to death in the wind and snow. But what did we do before? Instead, we... caused Your Majesty to suffer injustice!"

"I deserve to die! I truly deserve to die!"

"Your Majesty! Long live! Long live! Long, long live!!!"

"Long live His Majesty! Long live the Ming Dynasty!!!"

"..."

Ma Sanbao shed silent tears, standing on the high platform with mixed emotions. He watched as the people below, starting from nowhere, all spontaneously knelt in the direction of the imperial city, kowtowed in gratitude, and shouted "Long live the emperor!"

Many people were already in tears in the heavy snow.

Even the snowflakes falling from the gloomy sky melted on their tears, without feeling any chill. They simply kowtowed repeatedly, their gazes toward the Imperial City filled with gratitude, excitement, joy, and guilt...

It has only been two days since the press conference was announced, and naturally, only the people present here are from inside and outside Yingtian Prefecture.

These people.

Before, they had complained, resented, and even dared to insult Zhu Yunhuan. The more angry they were in the past, the more guilty they felt now.

These cheers, which almost shook the sky, were earnest and sincere.

Such a scene happened once more than three months ago - that was when Zhu Yunhuan ascended the throne.

But that time, they did so only because of the pressure of imperial power, which was inviolable and they dared not offend according to the rules of etiquette.

And this time, it comes from the heart!

at the same time.

At the most marginal position among the people under the high platform.

The many Jinyiwei, who were dressed in casual clothes but still had a dignified demeanor, were looking at Ma Sanbao on the high platform with a look of realization on their faces, and at the people below the platform who were constantly kowtowing and shouting "Long live the emperor", with a look of emotion on their faces.

"Your Majesty pointed out... the secret is actually here!"

"The master we serve is a truly wise emperor!"

As Jinyiwei, they are well-trained and always do what they are told by their superiors. However, this does not mean that they do not have any thoughts in their minds. Naturally, they are extremely puzzled by the so-called "after reading this, these people will stop making trouble" passed down from above.

They picked out quite a few people from the crowd.

Which one of them didn't have extreme hatred in his eyes? Which one of them wasn't tricked out by their so-called "joint rebellion against this tyrant emperor" and then kidnapped without warning?

Expect these people not to make trouble?

In their opinion, unless these people are dealt with one by one, they will definitely make trouble!

But they never expected that there would be such a complete method!

Just as these plainclothes Jinyiwei looked at Ma Sanbao and the many excited people with a look of indignation on their faces.

But he heard the sounds of "Hmm... Hmm... Hmm... Hmm" beside him, and the other end of the rope in his hand was also struggling and shaking violently.

The many plainclothes Jinyiwei finally reacted.

He also had tied up many strong men from the people who had previously wanted to rebel.

"I forgot about you." The plainclothes guard chuckled, stepped forward, and quickly took the things stuffed in the mouths of these "rebellious radicals" and said, "How is it? Are you still making trouble? Are you still going to rebel...?"

The several men bound and standing at the edge of the crowd had their gags suddenly removed, but they had lost all the energy to stir. Their eyes no longer held resentment or anger, only disappointment and helplessness...

They all looked ahead in silence for a moment.

Then they exchanged glances, then dropped to their knees one after another, "thump, thump!" They said, "I... deserve to die!"

They knew full well that they held more than just resentment and verbal abuse against the current emperor. They had truly felt the urge to rise up in rebellion against the "tyrant" many times!

He even appeared here and was kidnapped by the Jinyiwei.

It was precisely because he had rebellious intentions and thought that these Jinyiwei were like-minded people who intended to rebel that he was deceived into coming out.

The crime of treason is set in stone.

If they had been caught rebelling under normal circumstances, they would have at most cursed him before dying and then died bravely. But now they learned that the emperor they had always hated and wanted to rebel against was actually the wise ruler who had always planned for all the people...

Everything that happened before was just a joke.

Even if they were really beheaded by these Jinyiwei at this moment, they would not be wronged!

Think of this.

Several people knelt straight on the ground, gritting their teeth and closing their eyes: "My lords, please let our brother die!" The crime of rebellion and treason had been confirmed, so they naturally did not expect to survive.

However, they never expected that what they felt the next moment was not the coldness on their necks, but the sound of a long sword being unsheathed, with a clanging sound of metal and stone.

Then, the hands that were tied behind his back suddenly loosened and fell apart, and the hemp ropes on his body also loosened and fell to the ground...

It turned out that it was this plainclothes Jinyiwei who picked up a knife and cut the ropes on their hands!

"Why are you dying? Didn't I tell you this long ago? His Majesty never intended to take your heads! If you have nothing else to do, just get out of here."

The Jinyiwei have always been the type of people who are ruthless and don't talk much. The order from above was to release the people immediately after the press conference. Now they understood the meaning, so of course they did it.
