When Emperor Mingxi was resurrected, countless heads rolled down in the capital.
The officials and nobles who had mocked the young emperor in teahouses and taverns were shot dead on the spot in public just when the retired emperor cleared out half of the court and the country's troops.
The emperor didn't care, because he couldn't get rid of the reputation of being a tyrant and murderer.
When he passed away, he thought everything was arranged properly, but he never expected that power and wealth were so tempting.
Even the regent he personally selected secretly oppressed his children.
How could Emperor Mingxi not feel resentful?
The treasure he held in his hands was trampled upon and bullied in such a way that made him restless day and night.
Because the emperor was young, the retired emperor took over almost all state affairs, and he was the only one who was worshipped by court officials.
Not to mention how uncomfortable it was to face the cold-faced ministers every day, even King An, King Ping and others complained bitterly.
When His Majesty was still the emperor, he was not so difficult to talk to.
Now that he has been resurrected, he is truly a killing god on earth, and his murderous nature is even stronger than when he was twenty years old.
The aristocratic families stretched for thousands of miles, some were good and some were bad. Those who were disrespectful to the emperor were all confiscated and punished by Emperor Mingxi.
Among them, those who are rising to fame, if they are found to have real talent and knowledge, will be sent to the Imperial College to complete their study of ancient books.
On the surface, it was said that the court officials resigned voluntarily, but when they left, they left half of the officialdom, and everyone knew the reason.
Now that he's gone, who will take up such a large number of vacant official positions?
No matter how cruel and bloodthirsty Your Majesty is, the current emperor still needs manpower.
So everyone in the capital started to move around. If the imperial palace was not as strict as an iron barrel, these people would probably have tried their best to go to the emperor to beg for mercy.
Once he opened his mouth, even the emperor would not refute him.
Some who considered themselves clever began to try to curry favor with the Empress Dowager and the Queen, but were stopped in a very secretive manner.
"Those two have offended the Emperor and are now imprisoned in the palace!"
"Why is that? She is the former emperor's biological mother and the current emperor's biological mother!"
"So what? Can't you and I see that when the former emperor returns, he only has eyes for the emperor."
Time is not black and white, and His Majesty has long understood this.
The youngest son is lazy. It's okay when his father is not around, but if he is around, the brat will be too lazy to move a finger.
In order to make his son a worry-free emperor, Emperor Mingxi took great pains to plan for him.
Little did they know that as long as he stood behind the emperor, who would dare to repeat what happened back then?
Those who hold imperial power will be bound by its shackles and must endure the backlash of imperial power.
Suspicion and loneliness will accompany an emperor throughout his life.
The little fat boy was not among them. He had a pure heart and the court officials could not hurt him with their tricks, but his closest relatives could easily poke a hole in his heart.
The emperor has a dark mind and intends to alienate him from his concern for others.
In the eyes of Emperor Mingxi, the catastrophe has been overcome, and they do not need to reincarnate. In the next life, these people will be just passing clouds.
He once looked up to a few of them, but everything they did made him feel uncomfortable.
If you want to create alienation, you must first separate and then weaken.
Emperor Mingxi was even more mysterious and indifferent in front of others.
After being imprisoned for a year, the Empress Dowager and others were released. From time to time, they wanted to see the little fat boy, but were stopped by the Emperor.
Although Emperor Mingxi was cold in the past, he never put on airs in the harem.
It's just my nature.
But now, when the Empress Dowager, the Queen Mother and others saw him, the royal family's distinctions of status and strict hierarchy were fully demonstrated.
Logically speaking, the Empress Dowager naturally stood at the top of the legal system, but Emperor Mingxi was not a person who abided by the law.
He could even kill his own father.
Therefore, after he gave them a light glance, several people did not dare to move forward.
Although His Majesty would not kill the Grand Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother, the two of them might know this, but they still did not dare to approach him. After all, he was becoming less and less like a human being.
I really feel like an evil ghost crawling out of the underworld, coming to collect debts from the living.
Emperor Mingxi didn't care about their behavior. Perhaps he had waited too long and couldn't bear to leave the little fat boy anymore.
He raised his child from a small blade of grass, but never saw him grow up.
Now that the cause and effect have been broken, Yu'er will definitely grow up to be a young man in this life.
When people grow up, will they still cling to their fathers like this?
The emperor took his son fishing. He saw that his son was smiling, but when he smiled too, he could not hide his loneliness.
If he gets married and starts a family, and has three thousand concubines in his harem, I wonder if he will have time to think about his father.
Emperor Mingxi thought with some sadness,
The more you give to someone, the more emotions you place on them.
The emperor raised the fat boy for a long time and suffered a lot before he found the child. He had no intention of interfering with the child's marriage and having children, but he was afraid that the lonely old father would be abandoned.
At his age, with memories of the past, Emperor Mingxi also knew that these were nothing but his own selfish desires.
He interferes in his child's life. What kind of father is he? He might as well be a shadow puppeteer.
Therefore, although the emperor often had wild thoughts, he never thought of displaying them in front of the little fat boy.
If my son wants to play, I take him to play.
If you want to go to court, then go to court.
Emperor Mingxi thought further ahead. If his son got married, which girl should he choose? She must be the most beautiful woman on earth or a fairy in heaven.
His children are beautiful.
Your Majesty is really thinking too far ahead. The little fat boy is only six years old now. His appreciation of beauty is just instinctive and has nothing to do with love.
However, this also shows how much Emperor Mingxi loved the little fat boy. He often cried with sadness, fearing that his son would no longer want his father if he had concubines. He thought about this day and night and even took the initiative to think about choosing a concubine.
He regarded the little fat boy as the apple of his eye, but as the little fat boy grew older, the emperor never interfered with his decisions.
You must know that there are some things that His Majesty does not agree with.
Such magnanimity is more rare than pampering, because it is more difficult to habitually do something for your son than to let your son choose what to do.
Emperor Mingxi would also travel to heaven to see the parenting tips of the human world.
He gradually realized that letting go was what a father should do.
The little fat boy is not a silk puppet, he has his own heart of flesh and blood.
The emperor tossed and turned day and night, suffering the heartache and pain of his son's alienation from him.
Especially since Xie Ruyi and Yan Huajin had a child, as the emperor said, they held the child up for the little fat boy to see.
Perhaps because of blood, the child looks a bit like Fat Baby when he was young.
But his cheeks and body looked much thinner. Emperor Mingxi stared at the child, not wanting to reach out and hug him, but lost in memories.
After all, for him, that was more than ten thousand lifetimes away.
But he just looked at the child a few more times and the child burst into tears, which really touched the old father's heart.
He was already worried day and night, and when he was looked at like this by a child who looked like him, he actually fell ill.
It's really laughable to say the least.
The emperor doesn't care about others laughing at him. He is filled with sorrow and cannot stop feeling it.
When the child was young, he was chubby and silly. When his father hugged him, he would grin and giggle.
He couldn't stop feeling lonely.
The confused fat baby: "?"
