In this era of exclusive power by aristocratic families and the rise of princes, the emperor with a weak country and a young ruler is destined to be divided and eaten.
Bad news: Cheng hope is the unlucky last emperor of the Central Government.
Worse news: She was bound to a "human lie detector" system, and everyone's mask of hypocrisy suddenly disappeared.
Even worse news: The system actually told her not to openly disobey the family and the princes, otherwise she would die in the next second.
Cheng hope looked at the Manchu officials who had fallen below the lower limit of loyalty, and the princes who had reached the upper limit of rebellion.
Decide to abide by the system's warnings and survive one day at a time.

The great Sima, who had monopolized power, brought his sons to meet the emperor. He kept praising others and devaluing himself. In fact, he was asking Cheng hope for the position of the Guards in disguise.
Cheng Xi immediately held Da Sima in his arms with tears in his eyes: "There is nothing better than a father who knows a son, and does not avoid relatives when promoting virtuous people. It is really noble to love you! I will promote that person and never hire your son who loves you!"
The expression on Da Sima's face suddenly dried up.
The royal family was accused of seizing paddy fields and forcing good people into slavery. The cousin, who knelt in front of Cheng hope, cried bitterly and admitted his mistake and reflected on it. In fact, he tried to play the emotional card to mitigate the crime.
Unexpectedly, Cheng hope reluctantly wrote an edict while crying: "My cousin is willing to plead guilty and be punished. Although I am heartbroken, I can only fulfill my cousin's wish. Which one is more painless to my cousin: poisoning wine or swallowing gold."
Prince's cousin:? ? !
The princes who were suspected by the central government burst into tears and expressed their loyalty to Cheng hope and actively requested to be merged into the central government. In fact, they were retreating in an attempt to dispel Cheng hope's suspicion.
Unexpectedly, Cheng hope was moved to tears, and the edict was issued immediately: "I love you for your righteousness! I will immediately start the matter of leaving the country, and send the edict to the world for your noble deeds!"
The princes of Chen State rolled their eyes and completely lost their luster.
Cheng hope dutifully followed the system's requirements and satisfied the requirements of ministers and princes.
Many years later, the world was unified and the systematic lie detector no longer sounded. Cheng hope looked at the loyal courtiers in the dynasty and fell into deep thought for a long time.
