Chapter 5 I admit that I have a gambling element



The next morning.

It was five o'clock in the morning.

Wei Yunyi, who was in a daze, was woken up.

With the help of a group of palace maids, she changed clothes, washed, and had breakfast.

In fact, he was very reluctant about things like attending the morning court.

Isn’t it normal for a foolish ruler to not attend court early in the morning and neglect state affairs?

But there's no way.

Wei Yunyi didn't want to be a thoughtless and incompetent ruler.

Because in order to ruin one's fortune, one needs to have authority in hand to proceed.

If they are sidelined and no one obeys when the time comes to issue decrees, then all their words will be in vain.

This wasn't just groundless worry; it was entirely possible. For example, Zhang Zhengming, the Grand Tutor, was the Prime Minister of the Cabinet and concurrently the Minister of Personnel. One-third of the civil servants in the court were promoted by him.

More importantly, many local officials have been taught by him.

Some people are simply Zhang Zhengming's students.

It is not an exaggeration to call him Zhang Banchao.

Wei Yunyi remembered.

In the original novel, this person made decisions on behalf of the emperor several times.

Although the original owner didn't say anything on the surface, he was very dissatisfied in his heart.

Now, he chooses to be a tyrant, and many of his proposals in the future will definitely be rejected by Zhang Zhengming.

Early morning court sessions are an important feature of the emperor's power, so they are very necessary. At least now, this matter is very important.

Of course, if he could train his own people in the later period and contribute to his future career as a tyrant, then it would make no difference whether he attended the morning court or not.

The Great Wei believed in the virtue of water, so the main body of the dragon robe is black, which looks quite domineering.

Soon, everything was ready and Wei Yunyi changed into court clothes.

Then, accompanied by eunuchs, he went to Chengtian Hall.

After receiving the greetings of all officials, the morning court session began.

Just as Wei Yunyi expected.

The entire morning court revolved around one thing: the Prince of Yan's enfeoffment!

Nearly one-third of the people in the court were talking about how serious the consequences of this incident were.

Especially the imperial censors, their words were very harsh, quoting scriptures at every turn, making it seem as if the Prince of Yan would start a rebellion the day after he returned. Even some military generals stood up.

Faced with this situation, Wei Yunyi was very happy, because the more people opposed him, the more right he was.

Of course, we still have to save face, so we act like the emperor is very angry.

In fact, he also wanted to refute it, but he didn't read much in his previous life.

So I can't criticize these censors at all.

In the end, he could only utter a few harsh words and hurriedly end the morning court.

In this regard, the ministers in Chengtian Hall were helpless and could only look at each other.

...

"Outrageous! Too outrageous!"

"Traitors, the whole court is full of traitors!"

In the Imperial Garden, Wei Yunyi, who had just come out of Chengtian Palace, was still in the act.

Not only did he look unhappy, he also directly called all the officials in the court traitors.

He knew he had to do this.

This is the self-cultivation of a tyrant.

Wei Yunyi's reaction was almost entirely captured by the young eunuch in blue. The young eunuch's expression was somewhat complicated. He had been helpless since childhood and was sent to the palace at the age of six.

If nothing unexpected happens, I might end up being a slave for the rest of my life, suffering all kinds of humiliation.

But he was a eunuch who was good at thinking and had read many history books.

Understand that as a eunuch, if you want to be different from others, you must have power.

Where does the eunuchs’ power come from?

emperor!

That’s right, only by relying on imperial power can one completely change one’s destiny.

The young eunuch in blue, who knew all this well, observed Wei Yunyi's expression and knew that his chance had come.

After a fierce ideological struggle, he gritted his teeth and immediately, without hesitation, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. The censors in the court are only alarmists and cannot take real action."

"But Your Majesty, don't you find it strange? Why are almost all the ministers speaking today?"

"But the Grand Tutor, who strongly opposed it yesterday and even tried to persuade us in person, didn't say a word?"

After saying this, the young eunuch in blue lowered his head, his heart pounding.

He knew that he was spreading rumors.

And the target of the attack is the current Taifu and the chief minister of the cabinet.

If one is not careful and angers the Emperor, he might be executed directly.

The young eunuch in blue admitted that there was a gambling element in his activities.

I bet that His Majesty the Emperor has actually had some opinions about the Grand Tutor in his heart for a long time, and I bet that His Majesty the Emperor will definitely release the Prince of Yan to his fiefdom.

Besides, he was not afraid of losing. It was just death. At worst, he would be a hero again in eighteen years.

But if you win the bet, you will become successful, rich and prosperous, and enjoy endless wealth.

You will never suffer humiliation or be bullied again.

And at this time.

Wei Yunyi didn't say anything, but looked at the young eunuch in blue, his eyes beginning to shine.

He remembered that this was the first person he met after traveling through time.

Of course, this is not the point.

The reason why his eyes were shining was because he thought of his past life, where there were many records about eunuchs.

As we all know, eunuch is a very promising career. For example, the great eunuchs like Zhao Gao and Wei Zhongxian were capable of disrupting the government, framing loyal officials, and anything that was detrimental to the country. As long as they wanted to, they could do it.

For example, if a wise ruler were to instigate Zhang Zhengming, he would definitely be punished.

But I am different. I want to ruin the fortune of the Wei Dynasty.

He is determined to become a tyrant emperor.

How can we let go of such a talent?
