Second, I want to collect and recommend! Book friends wish me a helping hand to go to the top three!

Ivan was tired of the endless strife within Muscovy. Even when his gaze swept over those courtiers, there was contempt and contempt in his eyes. It was full of rat-eyed fools, and Ivan IV cursed from the bottom of his heart these incompetent, stupid gray animals. Barbarians who grew up in the cold frozen soil had no idea that the world was being turned upside down.

Spain and Portugal thousands of miles away discovered the Cape of Good Hope, Europeans had begun the era of the slave trade, the emperor of Spain, the protagonist of the Habsburg era, Charles V opened the era of the armada, but what was Moscow doing at this time?

Still complacent about who can control the young tsar? Are you still busy fighting for power?

No. Kindness and forgiveness towards the grey animals will only make them gain an inch, and every great tsar, from Ivan the Great, to Peter the Great, to Catherine, every tsar recorded in the epic, has stepped on the corpse of his opponent and climbed up.

It's time for Ivan IV to let them know what an iron-blooded tyrant is.

The flame of the candle flickered, and the door to the dormitory was pushed open. The attendant cautiously walked in. After the bloody baptism of the day, no one dared to laugh at the young Ivan IV behind his back. They felt a genuine fear of the teenager sitting on the golden seat.

As if overnight, he had shed his coat of timidity and put on a robe of brutality.

Become a qualified Muscovite monarch.

"Chessiadnin, the warden of the horses, asks for an audience."

The attendant cautiously looked at Ivan's expression, and was relieved to see that he did not show impatience.

"See you."

Ivan IV waved his hand and let the squire out.

Relieved, the attendant hurried out of Ivan's bedroom, not wanting to stay in it for another moment. Around Ivan IV seemed to be a vacuum of air, and no one dared to approach it.

Just when Ivan IV was distraught, Ivanovich Chelyadnin, the royal warden and the last guardian of Ivan IV, asked for an audience with the Tsar. He was the teacher of Tsar Ivan IV and the last line of insurance arranged by Vasily III before his death.

Chelyadnin walked into the room, having just learned what had happened during the day.

Ivan IV threw a maid into Lefortov and arrested the guards in the Kremlin, much to his shock.

Chelyadnin had always taught Ivan IV to use mercy and forgiveness as the standard of moral considerations, guiding His Majesty to be positive and good. He didn't want a tyrant in Moscow who was careless about human life.

Also as an elder, he showed his majesty as an elder, trying to prepare for the criticism of Ivan IV with his years of life experience, and when he first entered the door, he had all the words in his mind.

However, when he looked at Ivan IV, he was surprised to find that the young Tsar had lost his previous fear of authority.

The child who was cowardly in his harsh and cowardly memory is now sitting on a chair mature and steady, waiting for him to come.

Chelyadnin had always been good at reading words, but he could not see any emotion in Ivan IV's face. It was as if he had disguised himself in layers, leaving only a mask to deal with his teacher.

At that moment, Chelyadnin realized that the words he had prepared were useless.

"You're here, teacher."

Ivan said calmly, "It's getting late, if nothing happens......"

"Will you have absolutely nothing? His Majesty Ivan. ”

The elder standing in front of him interrupted him firmly, and Chelyadnin looked at him with a serious expression, and asked rhetorically, "Your Majesty, how long will you make trouble before you let go?" ”

"I don't understand what the teacher means?"

Ivan IV deliberately pretended to be deaf and dumb, and he asked rhetorically, "Does Teacher Chelyadnin think that he is making a fuss?" ”

"Of course."

Chelyadnin slapped the table hard, and he pointed at His Majesty Ivan and said, "Throw the servant into Lefortov's prison without interrogation, and let the Grand Duke Tuchkov send a large number of people to hunt down the Kremlin attendants." You're messing around! Did Tuchkov say something to you? How many times have I said that a monarch ......"

"Shut up, old thing!"

"What do you call me?"

As Ivan's teacher, Chelyadnin angrily made the gesture of a guardian, and said to the disrespectful Ivan, "You call me an old thing? I'm your father's handpicked guardian on his deathbed! ”

"So what, old thing."

Ivan IV, who couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and said impatiently, "The guy who stepped into the coffin with half a foot dares to point fingers in front of me?" Think about it, this bitterly cold frozen soil is what the whole of Moscow has become like this thanks to your people. A bunch of quick-eyed guys, with no grand strategic ambitions at all, and you guys are embarrassed to claim to be the successors of Rome? ”

Chelyadnin was stunned by Ivan's words.

The young Tsar had never spoken to him like this before.

Ivan IV, who could not bear the fools, broke out in silence. He pointed to the territory and said word by word, "Look at the West, look at the people, look at the Holy Roman Empire that is not holy at all, not Roman at all, not imperial at all!" Under the leadership of Charles V, the people have begun to search for new continents, build powerful fleets, and carry out colonial expansion and slave trade! And what about you, what are you doing? You boil frogs in warm water in the midst of internal friction day after day. Completely unaware that the whole world is being turned upside down. ”

"Think the Ottoman Empire, the Golden Horde and the Polish-Lithuanian Kingdom are all you have? When will the ignorant grey animals open your eyes and really look at the world! ”

These words of Ivan IV are nothing less than heretical remarks for the Grand Duke, who was baptized in Orthodox theology, but these heretical remarks actually came from the mouth of a tsar.

He scoffed, "Compared to the Holy Roman Empire, the subjects of Moscow are really not qualified to claim to be the heirs of the Roman Empire." ”

"Your Majesty."

Chelyadnin was desperate to get up, but was pushed back by Ivan IV. The Tsar developed very early, and at the age of thirteen he was already far superior to his peers and tall.

There is also a maturity and indifference that is far superior to that of his peers.

"Listen, Mr. Chelyadnin. I call you a teacher now for the sake of the past. If, if you want to stop me from doing anything, I won't let you go in the face of the old master-apprentice relationship. ”

"Moscow has been sunk in darkness for too long, and it desperately needs a guide to the light."

When he accepted the reality of becoming the first Tsar of Russia, he also accepted the fate he had to bear.

Ivan IV stood up, and he made a gesture of please, hoping that his teacher would leave with dignity.

"So, I beg all the gray animals here in Moscow to stop pulling my hind legs!"

"This empire is preparing to rise!"
