Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

But in the court, there were still various voices of support or advice.

The three people who first seconded the motion, Liu Sanwu, Zhan Hui, and Fu Youwen, realized it later and became a little flustered:

"It's over! Your Majesty hasn't even mentioned the Qin and Jin princes' rebellion yet, only mentioning the reduction of the feudal lords, and I'm already so hastily following suit! There's already been rumors circulating throughout the court and the public lately, saying the three of us are using Your Majesty to control the Ming Dynasty. After this move, won't it only make us even more suspicious?"

Liu Sanwu acted on impulse, but Zhan Hui and Fu Youwen... were simply led astray by Liu Sanwu.

For a moment, the three of them felt guilty and annoyed...

If they really were controlling the Ming Dynasty behind the scenes and manipulating Zhu Yunhuan, it would be fine if people would just point fingers at them and say a few words about them.

But they got nothing and still had to bear the blame...

Who can they turn to for justice?

The most crucial thing is that after all this time of criticism and suspicion from both the government and the public, His Majesty has not made any statement or clarification. This can only mean one thing - this is the situation that His Majesty currently wants to see or maintain.

more than this.

The current situation of criticism from both the court and the public is in fact intentional by His Majesty. Either he is planning something or he has some special purpose.

They have experienced too much of the person who is full of evil intentions. If Your Majesty does not express his opinion on this, they dare not even say a word to clarify themselves.

“Oh… I was so careless!”

"That old Liu was talking nonsense at the critical moment, and I accidentally got led into a trap by him! Ugh!"

Zhan Hui and Fu Youwen looked at each other and exchanged glances. They both shook their heads secretly, lowered their eyes helplessly, and silently returned to their original positions, secretly praying that no one else noticed them.

And just when the court was in an uproar and everyone was talking at once.

Ma Sanbao immediately whipped his whip.

Shouted: "Silence!!!"

The discussions of the people in Fengtian Hall suddenly quieted down.

Another eunuch who served Zhu Yunhuan brought up a wooden tray, on which were various letters, documents, papers, etc.

Zhu Yunhuan, who was sitting on the dragon throne with his chin supported, slowly stood up at this time, raised his eyebrows, picked up a few letters from the tray in the hands of the eunuch, and said: "This is the correspondence between Zhu Chong, the former prince of Xi'an and now a traitor, and the Shaanxi commander-in-chief." After that, the letters were thrown on the ground.

Then he picked up another document.

He said in a cold voice: "This is the evidence of the Shanxi commander-in-chief secretly mobilizing the Shaanxi garrison troops in the name of training!" After saying that, he threw it down again with a little anger.

"This... is evidence that Zhu Gang, the former Prince of Taiyuan Border Guard and now a traitor, secretly mobilized tens of thousands of personal guards!"

"This is……"

Zhu Yunhuan's voice was very calm, neither hurried nor slow, yet it seemed to carry a chill as if it were the coldest days of winter. He picked up the evidence one by one and read it out. Not long after, all the evidence that had been thrown on the Fengtian Yiluan in front of him was piled up into a piece, which was shocking!!!

As Zhu Yunhuan read out and threw out the evidence one by one, the entire Fengtian Hall became increasingly quiet, even to an eerie degree.

Everyone stared with wide eyes, stunned at Zhu Yunhuan standing high atop the imperial throne with a stern expression and evidence of his crimes scattered across the floor. Their faces were filled with disbelief – the King of Qin… and the King of Jin… rebelled together! !?

Of course, what shocked them most was not the rebellion of Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang.

After all, among the princes of the previous emperor, they were the two with the highest order of succession to the throne, and their domineering and ostentatious personalities were known to everyone in the court and the country.

The young emperor, seemingly easy to deceive, had suddenly gained popularity, and the Yingtian region was not entirely stable. The sudden news of the rebellion of the King of Qin and the King of Jin shocked everyone, but they were not surprised.

But the most outrageous thing about this matter is...

These two guys were rebelling, but when everyone present hadn't heard anything about it and didn't even know about it, all the evidence of rebellion had been collected and appeared in the Fengtian Hall!

It's like a rebellion in vain!

The King of Qin and the King of Jin were among the two most powerful vassal kings, yet their rebellion was suppressed without even a whimper?

He was caught red-handed just as he was about to mobilize troops. Yingtian Prefecture is thousands of miles away from Shaanxi and Shanxi. In other words, the intention of rebellion had just reached His Majesty's ears, so he was caught red-handed just as he was about to mobilize troops!

Think of this.

Everyone stared at Zhu Yunhuan in disbelief, feeling a little unreal for a moment...

As the Fengtian Hall fell into silence.

Zhu Yunhuan was silent for a moment, then slowly sat back on his throne. He raised his eyebrows and said, "My dear ministers, what do you think? Should I reduce the power of this vassal state or not?"

After hearing this, the civil and military officials who had been in a daze finally came to their senses.

Rebellion and treason... this is a serious crime.

There is definitely no problem in using this crime to reduce the power of the feudal lords. It is legitimate and no one can complain about it.

Besides... you've already thrown the evidence in our faces.

Who can still say that this vassal state should not be reduced?

Or... you have already quietly suppressed the rebellion of the vassal kings, which is equivalent to you having reduced the power of the vassal kings by half, and you still come to ask us whether we should reduce it?

He pondered for a long time.

Finally, someone spoke awkwardly, "Your Majesty is absolutely right! Treason is a serious crime, and the perpetrator must be executed!"

How can this be called an inquiry? This is called a notification!
