The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"He single-handedly secured decades of peace for the entire Song Dynasty?"

Zhao Gou's words did indeed intimidate Li Shimin.

In times of chaos, to be able to secure decades of peace single-handedly is indeed a remarkable achievement!

But as soon as Zhao Gou finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang almost burst out laughing.

Did he single-handedly secure decades of peace?

If that's the case, it really is!

If it weren't for Zhao Gou's efforts, the Jurchens wouldn't have had the chance to roam for so long, and Yue Fei would have already reclaimed the old lands of the Song Dynasty.

However, he didn't even get a chance to refute it; the words on the sky had already slapped Zhao Gou's face in the face.

[Top Ten Worst Rulers in History]

Seventh: The tenth emperor of the Song Dynasty, the founding emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty.

The founding emperor was a foolish ruler. Starting with Zhao Gou, the entire Southern Song Dynasty never stood up straight again, and it can be said that it knelt all the way to the fall of the country!

Emperor Gaozong of Song, Zhao Gou!

After seeing the words on the sky, Zhao Gou spat out the mouthful of wine he had just taken a sip.

How can it be!

"How could I possibly be a foolish ruler!"

"The immortals must have made a mistake. I single-handedly brought decades of peace to the entire Song Dynasty. I should at least be ranked among the top wise rulers!"

Zhao Gou retorted, his face flushed.

Qin Hui also quickly spoke up.

"The immortal must have made a mistake. His Majesty endured humiliation and actively sought peace, thus preserving the last piece of pure land for the Song Dynasty. He is definitely not a foolish ruler!"

Unfortunately, this is nothing but self-deception.

The writing on the sky continued to appear.

The Song Dynasty emphasized civil affairs and suppressed military affairs, which led to a strange phenomenon.

A military officer of the third rank must pay respects to a civil official of the fourth rank.

Throughout the Song Dynasty, military officers held no status whatsoever, which ultimately led to disaster.

Historically, it was always military generals who requested war and civil officials who sought peace. However, in the Song Dynasty, military generals had no power whatsoever, and the voices of those seeking peace far outweighed those advocating war in the court.

Emperor Zhao Gou outwardly advocated war, but inwardly he was equally cowardly and dared not wage war against the Jurchens.

Thus, the Southern Song Dynasty, which he founded, always ended in seeking peace in every foreign war.

After suffering a defeat, they knelt down, begged for peace, and paid reparations.

Even after winning a battle, they still kneel down, beg for peace, and pay reparations!

Liao, Xia, Jin, Yuan—every country bordering the Song Dynasty has experienced the Song Dynasty's subservience!

"?"

Li Shimin typed a question mark.

So this is how we fought for peace for decades?

Damn you!

He felt an urge to curse.

What the hell is this?!

"I cannot control the affairs of future dynasties; I can only do what I can do."

"My dear ministers, do you think such a weak emperor is fit to be the ruler of the world?"

Instead of immediately launching into a tirade on the sky, he calmly looked at the officials behind him.

"Don't even mention the emperor, a person like that doesn't deserve to be called a son!"

Wei Zheng's criticism was the most direct.

The ruler of the world?

shit!

"From this day forward, any foreign tribe that invades the territory of our Great Tang, regardless of whether they are civil or military officials, those who seek peace or those who retreat, shall be executed on the spot!"

"Anyone who, according to the Emperor of the Great Tang Dynasty, wishes to cede territory or pay reparations, will be deposed, expelled from the imperial clan, and executed!"

"Anyone who abandons even an inch of land shall not be buried in the imperial mausoleum after death!"

It's clear that Li Shimin was genuinely angry.

He said these words through gritted teeth.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Great Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng was still feeling much better, but when he saw the evaluation of Zhao Gou on the sky, he almost had a stroke again.

During the chaos of the Five Barbarian Tribes, it was only because the Western Jin Dynasty was weak that the Five Barbarian Tribes had the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

So, you Song Dynasty people just kneel down?

After winning a battle, why would they kneel down and beg for peace and reparations?

What a shame!

"I do not understand, how can such a person have the face to sit on the throne?"

Doesn't he realize he's tarnishing the title of emperor?

"Zhao Gou, you should pray that this challenge doesn't fall on me, otherwise, with a spineless coward like you, I will definitely crush every bone in your body inch by inch!"

Upon seeing Ying Zheng's comment, Zhao Gou couldn't help but shudder.

Immortal, please don't send this madman to the Song Dynasty!

But before he could even pray, he saw the furious comments about Zhao Kuangyin in the background.

"I never expected it, I never expected that the descendants would be so weak. Zhao Gou, confess! Whose descendant are you? I will eliminate any future troubles!"

"Don't think you can get away with it just because you don't say anything. Does anyone know? Please tell me, so that I can rid China of this scourge ahead of time!"

This was during the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Kuangyin had already gathered all his sons together.

As long as he gets an answer from the comments, he will not hesitate to strike without hesitation!

Killing him might be hard to bear, but castration is no problem!

"Zhao Guangyi".

Old Zhu slowly typed three words.

Upon seeing these three words, Zhao Guangyi trembled. He turned to meet Zhao Kuangyin's incredulous gaze.

"Is this really true?!"

Zhao Kuangyin's eyes instantly turned red, and he walked step by step toward Zhao Guangyi, sword in hand.

"Historical records state that one night you drank with Zhao Guangyi and then died suddenly. He then succeeded to the throne, and all the emperors of the Song Dynasty after that were descendants of Zhao Guangyi."

As Zhao Kuangyin read Zhu De's words, word by word, he let out a bitter laugh.

"Yeah."

"You must have coveted my throne for a long time, haven't you?"

"I won't give it to you, yet you dare to snatch it. You truly are worthy of being my good brother!"

Just as Zhao Guangyi was about to utter a few words of protest, Zhao Kuangyin's sword had already struck down.

He dodged to the side, but the guards on either side immediately stepped forward and pinned him down.

Zhao Kuangyin stepped forward in two strides.

"After you had a drink with me, I suddenly died. My dear brother, tell me, how exactly did I die?"

How exactly did he die?

Zhao Guangyi tried to argue his case, but found himself unable to find any room for excuses.

It was the work of an immortal, and historical records from later generations provide irrefutable evidence!

"Brother, I haven't done anything. Are you going to kill your own brother over something that hasn't even happened yet?"

He can only play the emotional card.

Unfortunately, Zhao Kuangyin didn't buy into that.

Without hesitation, the longsword slashed down, splattering blood everywhere.

"By imperial decree, the Prince of Jin has died suddenly in the palace. His eldest son will succeed to the throne. As for the position of Prefect of Kaifeng, I will make other arrangements."

Execute Zhao Guangyi and take back all the real power he held!

While it wouldn't lead to the slaughter of their offspring, it would be equivalent to cutting off any possibility of that lineage seizing the throne!

"Such a disgraceful thing cannot be allowed to happen in the Song Dynasty. From now on, the Song Dynasty shall not pay reparations, sue for peace, or endure this humiliation. Anyone who advocates for peace shall be executed on the spot!"

Looking at his younger brother's corpse, Zhao Kuangyin said in a low voice.

For every word he spoke, the eunuch beside him would write it down.

"From this day forward, military officers shall be of equal status with civil officials. No civil official shall be allowed to be superior to the military. If I discover such a situation, the military officer shall be severely punished!"

"Our Great Song Dynasty must never be as weak as the immortals described!"
