After transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Yuan advances with careful planning until he becomes the most powerful minister, wielding the blade for Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and wiping out the empire’s corrupt officials...
“Your Majesty, Tang Shengzong has rendered great service and risked life and limb for the Ming, yet Zhou Yuan confiscated his estate and exterminated his clan. Not a single one of the more than three hundred people in his household was spared!”
“He has also slaughtered dozens of our old brothers from Huai Xi!”
“We went to reason with him, and he actually ordered his men to beat us. He clearly has no regard for Your Majesty!”
“Your Majesty, we are all loyal ministers who fought to conquer the realm for the Ming!”
“We shed blood for the Ming, but Zhou Yuan makes us weep. Your Majesty, please execute this vile criminal and comfort the spirits of the meritorious men who died unjustly!”
“Your Majesty! Please execute this villain and avenge our brothers from Huai Xi!”
The ministers are enraged, but Zhou Yuan grows even more brazen. “I oversee the Embroidered Uniform Guard and investigate corruption. I have imperial authorization to execute first and report later. Who dares defy me? If you defy me, you defy His Majesty and the laws of the Ming! What are you trying to do? Usurp the throne?”
