Chapter 669: The Legend of ZTE's Famous Officials(2/2)

Now everyone knows that the Ming Dynasty was the prosperous era of Zhongxing, and that Your Majesty is the Holy Lord of Zhongxing. This matter has long been concluded.

Normally, everyone would say this when flattering the emperor. There are even more disgusting things to say than this. But who would have thought that the emperor would say it himself?

You said that throughout history, there is no such thing as a prosperous dynasty. No one can refute this.

Looking at history, the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty and the prosperity of the people are indeed unprecedented. It is natural to praise yourself in this regard, and it is not too much.

But look, what did you say next?

Who would believe this when we eat late at night, think about ourselves and work hard?

But there is no way, if the emperor says this, then you can only listen to it.

Everyone lowered their heads with serious faces, and some even started to nod, as if "that's it."

Seeing the reactions of the ministers, Zhu Youxiao's expression did not change much.

He said that on purpose. These days, his mood was very bad, and the mood in the court was even worse.

Even many old ministers have begun to think about retiring. They do not want to die in office and are planning to return to their hometowns to spend their remaining years, recuperate, entertain their grandchildren, and live for two more years.

For example, Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi were both included in the question book. I really don’t know what they were thinking.

So Zhu Youxiao came up with this method. On the one hand, he built the cemetery to appease people's hearts. On the other hand, he had to publicize their achievements and write books and biographies for them to leave their names in history.

The dead are naturally honored. Don’t the living want to write about your own achievements in a more beautiful way?

This is their seduction.

Since you want to praise your ministers, you must praise your dynasty to the point that no one can compare with it.

These are all learned from Li Shimin. When it comes to revising history books and belittling predecessors, the Tang Dynasty is definitely on the list.

Li Shimin belittled his father, belittled his brother, and promoted himself; Wu Zetian belittled Li Shimin, belittled Li Zhi, promoted himself, and tampered with history books. It looked like a madman.

It was the same in the Qing Dynasty, they were written according to their ideas.

Zhu Youxiao didn't even know whether 30% of those historical materials were true?

Probably less than 30%.

What can I do if I praise myself now?

I haven’t said that I am a perfect old man yet.

In this weird atmosphere, Han Xu changed his tone from praising the emperor and the court to praising his ministers.

In a word, the Ming Dynasty has such merits and virtues that surpass all dynasties. In addition to my wisdom and strength, it is also inseparable from the assistance of you people.

You are all existences that transcend the famous ministers of all ages!

I want to build a cemetery for the deceased ministers and place it next to my imperial mausoleum so that they can enjoy the commemoration of future generations.

At the same time, we must write a book and prepare a "Biography of Famous Officials of Zhongxing" to get you up there so that your names will remain in history and let future generations admire your achievements.

Then the topic changed. In order to imitate the old story of the eighteen ministers in Lingyan Pavilion of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, there were only eighteen people in the first batch of ZTE famous ministers, and everyone could recommend each other.

This is what Zhu Youxiao found for them, so that the court will not be lifeless all day long.

After the death of those people, I am very unhappy and unhappy. I can grieve alone, but there must be no such anger in the court.

The court as a whole should be positive, and everyone should be optimistic and cheerful, work hard, and work hard. Only then will it be okay.

There are so many things to do, how can there be time left for you to grieve?

That's why Zhu Youxiao came up with this plan.

Looking at the excited faces below, Zhu Youxiao knew that the plan was successful.

Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi will not leave either. You can tell from the looks of these two people. Even if they want to leave, they have to wait until the book is finished.
Chapter completed!
