Chapter 1201: The Faint Monarch, the Tyrant and the Ming Monarch (II)

Previous Chapter

Sun Ning laughed: "That's right, if you don't get rid of them, the innocent people who die because of them will only be ten times and a hundred times greater! Therefore, I have never regretted raising a prison and killing everything that has caused trouble in the world.

"Look at how many years it has been since there has been any more chaos in the world? The people are even more sufficient, the cultivators have their fields, the old have their support, and the young have their education? The court can afford to do all this, isn't it because of the ten years of raiding and destroying the family?"

Guo Chong said yes again. Yes, it's better to cry all the way than to cry all the way, it's better to cry all the way than to cry in a county, all those wealthy families were killed, in exchange for today's world Datong, it is naturally worth it.

However, after being a little excited, the smile on Sun Ning's face was retracted: "But you tell me the truth, after a hundred years, how should future generations evaluate me?

"Is it the Faint King, the Tyrant, or the Ming King?"

was looked at by Sun Ning with a solemn gaze, and the reply that naturally came to his lips made it difficult for Guo Chong to speak for a while.

"It's hard to say, right?" Sun Ning himself laughed clearly, "There must be a lot of people who say that I am a faint monarch, who made me really too ridiculous in the years when I first succeeded to the throne, which led to rebellions, ghost invasions, and chaos in the world, causing hundreds of people to suffer?"

Guo Chong opened his mouth again, wanting to deny it, but he couldn't export it in the end, because all this is a fact.

In the first four or five years of the reign of the current emperor, he was indeed the most traditional faint king, indulging in alcohol, uninterested in government affairs, and appointing female cadres...... This led to the chaos that swept the whole world, and he almost died in the chaos.

"But in the end, Your Majesty came back and changed his ways. And it took many years to re-dominate the world and return the people to stability and peace. Therefore, in the eyes of the minister, what His Majesty has done is even more extraordinary than that of ordinary Ming monarchs and heroes, and it will make future generations admire it even more."

"Hahaha...... You can talk. I'm just cleaning up the mess I've made, but one thing is good, if it weren't for the turmoil at the beginning, I wouldn't be where I am today, and I wouldn't be where I am today."

Sun Ning said this, and his smile was a little more playful.

In this world, except for himself, no one will know the biggest secret, that Emperor Baoqing, the faint monarch, was actually dead as early as when the world was in turmoil...... So if someone in later generations insists that Sun Ning is a faint king, then the injustice will be great.

Guo Chong nodded hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty is right. In the eyes of the minister, saying that His Majesty is a tyrant is clearly a crime that he wants to add, and he reverses black and white. Although His Majesty has indeed killed many people over the years, which of them is not to blame and is not a person who deserves to die?

"And more than killing, Your Majesty is more about saving people, so that those poor people who have no food and clothing can live...... Therefore, in the eyes of the minister, His Majesty is a Ming monarch, a rare Ming monarch since ancient times!"

Sun Ning chuckled, "I believe that what you said is the truth from the bottom of your heart, but unfortunately, your Guo Chong's words may not work. Those who can deny their predecessors in later generations will eventually be those who read, and they may not have such a high opinion of me. Who has made me devote all these years to having others of real skill take their place?"

"Your Majesty's words are wrong, maybe the so-called saint disciples who are waiting to read the Four Books and the Five Classics will complain to Your Majesty, but as Your Majesty said, there are still a group of people who have benefited from it, and their influence will inevitably be above those who die reading.

"I believe that in a few decades, the only people who will really write history will be those who have not been influenced by the words of the so-called saints. Moreover, justice is in the hearts of the people, and even if the people cannot write it, they will pass on the merits of His Majesty to the next generation and leave them to future generations."

"Yes, some things are indeed changing, I just hope everything is still in time......" Sun Ning suddenly thought of something, and said something that made Guo Chong a little confused.

Immediately, he put the question aside, apparently not too much about what future generations would say about him: "Confucius once said that he knew that I sinned against me, and he only did spring and autumn...... I think that as long as I am worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, it is enough, and as for what future generations will say, let them go.

"By the way,

What kind of nickname and temple name do you say you will get after a hundred years?"

This question made Guo Chong a little difficult to answer, after all, the emperor is still alive now, and it is too unlucky to say what the temple number is.

Sun Ning didn't care, and said with a smile: "I really thought about it, this nickname, if there is a martial word, there is a strong word, and I will be satisfied, and the rest can be tossed by the people below."

"As for the temple number, do you say that I am called a sect or an ancestor?"

At this point, Guo Chong still didn't understand, and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, although you think that you are said to have inherited the great unification of Emperor Muzong, it is actually no different from the creation.

"And over the years, Your Majesty has also made many rectifications to many of my Dayue's laws and regulations, which has completely created a new era, and it is natural to be called an ancestor!"

"Well, that's what I thought. That Kang Mazi can be called a Holy Ancestor, so it is nothing for me to be called an Ancestor."

Who is Kang Mazi?

Guo Chong was a little puzzled, but the emperor has always said something confusing in recent years, like what kind of lightning five whips, chicken, you are too beautiful, I think this Kang Mazi is similar to these two.

As a close and important minister, Guo Chong had long been accustomed to this, so he didn't answer the words, but just echoed: "What Your Majesty said is that your merits are not under the Taizu, and you should be the ancestor."

"Hahahaha, that's it, it's even better." Sun Ning laughed, got up, looked at the wind and dead leaves outside the pavilion, and the clouds rolled up, and unconsciously remembered the few nouns of his past life that he could remember, and couldn't help but whisper:

"The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes. Success or failure turns empty, the green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times.

"On the white-haired fisherman Jiangzhu, I am used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, and many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking."

After the song was finished, Sun Ning thought about all kinds of things in this life, and the whole person stood there unconsciously, a little stupid.

And Guo Chong also seemed to be impressed by the grandeur and loneliness in the words, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

At this time, only the autumn wind is everywhere, and the yellow leaves are all over the sky, lining the white hair on the heads of the two kings and ministers, which is more and more vast and lonely......
