It was said to be an explosive beating.
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang was mainly using intimidation.
After all, although Jiajing's cultivation was good, his body was still very healthy.
But he was already fifty or sixty.
In Great Ming, this could already be considered longevity.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's threats were not so fun in Jiajing's eyes.
He was a man who had just returned from the battlefield a few years ago.
This murderous aura.
Even if they were beaten with cotton, it would still make people feel afraid.
The Jiajing Dynasty's national strength was displayed. 51 points!
From the 132 points of the Zhengde Dynasty.
It was 112 o'clock at Yongle Dynasty.
Then, it reached 89 points in the Hongwu Dynasty.
The average difference was about 20 points.
However, this time, it was a huge landslide, losing nearly 40 points.
From 89 points to 51 points.
It could be said.
The situation of the Jiajing Dynasty was even worse than what Zhu Yuanzhang had imagined!
After the Jiajing flogging ended.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat back on the futon.
Jiajing's face was covered in bruises, looking extremely miserable.
However, no one would pity him.
He brought this upon himself and could not live.
"If the fourth place Jiajing Dynasty is already like this, then what about the other two?”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hongzhi and Chongzhen.
He frowned.
He knew about the Chongzhen Dynasty. After all, it was the last dynasty of the Ming Dynasty.
So, let's make it worse.
He could still accept it.
After all, Chongzhen wasn't someone who couldn't be helped.
But for the Hongzhi dynasty
He couldn't understand.
Fifth place selection
The selection process was completed!
Fifth place: Hongzhi Dynasty!
Should they display their national strength?
"Show me."
Hongzhi said to the sky.
Actually, Hiroshi did not understand why he was ranked fifth.
After all, he had always felt that Da Ming was quite good under his rule.
The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the officials flourished.
Why was such a Hongzhi Dynasty ranked fifth?
Hongzhi really couldn't understand.
The Hongzhi Dynasty's display of national strength was about to begin!

As the countdown ended, the scene in the sky slowly unfolded.
In the 22nd year of Chenghua, Emperor Xianzong of Ming Dynasty died. As the Crown Prince, you ascended the throne on the sixth day of the ninth month, and changed the year title to Hongzhi in the second year.
In the first year of Hongzhi, due to the ups and downs of your childhood, you have always been weak and sick. However, you are still diligent in government affairs, advocating outspoken remonstrance and practicing thrift. Not only do you attend the morning court every day, but you also reopened the afternoon court, so that the ministers have more opportunities to assist you in handling government affairs.
In the second year of Hongzhi, your diligence quickly paid off. The cabinet chief, Liu Ji, Xu Pu, and others praised Hongzhi for its rare clarity of government and the appointment of talents! In the memorials from all over the world, there were many good news, and the world was peaceful.
The more you rejoice, the more you feel that you are more generous to your subjects and can talk to them from the bottom of your heart.
But you don't know that in a place you can't see, the power of the civil officials is growing at an extremely fast speed.
In the third year of Hongzhi, you began to suppress the power of eunuchs. The East Chamber and the Jinyiwei no longer dared to act arbitrarily and could only follow their own duties. In the same year, you corrected the legal system and formulated the Regulations on Interrogation and Punishment, because the Ming laws formulated by Taizu were too cruel in your eyes.
Hongzhi four years.
"I already roughly know what happened after the Hongzhi Dynasty.”
Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze shifted from the image in the sky and sighed.
Originally, he thought…
This Hongzhi must be some kind of fatuous tyrant.
That was why the country's strength was so weak that it could not even compare to the Jiajing Dynasty of the later generations.
but now it seems
Hongzhi was not a tyrant, but a 'benevolent ruler' in the eyes of those civil officials.
"I seem to remember that the Jiajing kid said that after the Hongzhi Dynasty, the Great Ming was the Great Ming of the civil officials?”
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly remembered something.
Jiajing, whose face was bruised and swollen, also nodded."Yes."
"It seems that they are all the root of trouble left behind in the Hongzhi Dynasty.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry that he did not fight back.
Your great ancestor, I, have set up all kinds of laws to guard against those officials.
Do you really think this is just for show?
Did he really think that he was smarter than his great ancestor?
He even took the initiative to lower the punishment for those officials!？
Hongzhi was also a little upset by Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze.
Until now.
He naturally understood.
It turned out that the saint he was so proud of was not what a qualified emperor should have!
"If that's the case, then wouldn't it be my fault that Houzhou fell into the water and died?”
Hongzhi suddenly thought of this.
His face turned pale.
He could accept it if it caused other consequences, but if it was his fault that his only son died.
That was not something he could accept.
"Father, raise your head."
Zhu Houzhao said indifferently.
Emperor Hongzhi used all his strength to look at Zhu Houzhao.
"Sorry, I…"
His eyes were filled with apology.
Although Houzhao had successfully regained power in the Zheng De Dynasty.
However, he had seen with his own eyes how difficult and dangerous it was to display the strength of the Zheng De Dynasty.
Hongzhi had always been generous.
Otherwise, he would not have treated his subjects so well.
"Father, now is not the time to apologize. I just want to tell you that Hongzhi still had many opportunities ten years ago.”
"Whether or not you want to stop all of this from happening is actually up to you.”
Zhu Houzhao said slowly.
In fact, in his world, he had tried to persuade Hongzhi many times, but he was only the crown prince at that time, so such persuasion was useless.
And now.
There were so many examples here, and there were also the evaluations of the two ancestors, Taizu and Yongle.
He had to believe his father in this parallel world, right?
The power of civil officials was never something that could be achieved overnight and then become uncontrollable.
Instead, it was a process from quantitative change to qualitative change.
Starting from Renzong, the power of civil officials had already shown signs of emerging.
During this period, there were many twists and turns.
It was only during the Hongzhi years that it started to grow crazily.
Finally, a complete qualitative change occurred!
Zhu Houzhao was not the only one who noticed it.
Jiajing also noticed it.
That was why Jiajing was so desperate and completely ruined.
"Ten years ago?"
Hongzhi's eyes slowly lit up.
The current him was only in the eighth year of Hongzhi.
In other words, there was still a chance!
And what Houzhao said just now.
Whether or not I decide to stop all of this is up to me.
His gaze shifted from Zhu Houzhao to Jiajing.
Then he swept over Chongzhen, Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang.
In the end, it fell into his hands.
It's all mine.
In a moment?
"I, understand."
Hongzhi slowly clenched his fists.
He muttered.
The light is thick and the hair is thick.
This time…
I will not disappoint you!
