Sky Curtain: My Great Qin must have an aircraft carrier!

When Li Shimin saw this, he felt like his head was about to explode.

If Huang Chao had some talent, then Hong Xiuquan exposed all the flaws of a shrewd and ambitious man to the fullest extent.

If you can't even control your own desires, how can you dream of conquering the world?

This kind of person, let alone conquering the world, could turn a county into chaos within six months.

Li Shimin turned around and complained to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

"Both Huang Chao and Hong Xiuquan rebelled after failing the imperial examinations, but at least Huang Chao had real talent but nowhere to use it, while Hong Xiuquan was purely incompetent yet loved to cause trouble!"

Fang Xuanling continued, "Once those peasants gain even a little wealth, their true colors are revealed; they only know how to indulge in pleasure."

"No one can compare to His Majesty, who has devoted himself to the cause since ascending the throne and has never relaxed even for a moment since sitting on the dragon throne."

"Such unwavering resolve and dedication are far beyond the reach of those farmers."

Li Shimin felt extremely pleased by these words, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

He quickly realized what was happening, and feigned a serious smile as he scolded, "You old codger, are you trying to flatter me?"

Fang Xuanling remained unmoved: "I was merely stating the facts; how could that be considered flattery?"

"Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has worked tirelessly day and night, sparing no effort—isn't that a fact?"

"Ahem!"

Li Shimin coughed twice and quickly turned his back to the assembled officials.

That smile was so wide it was harder to suppress than an AK.

Fang Xuanling may look honest and unassuming, but he has a knack for praising people, and it sounds really pleasant to listen to.

Just then, Wei Zheng's untimely voice rang out.

"Your Majesty may be pleased, but please do not forget Huang Chao."

"If there is even the slightest mishap in the reform of the imperial examination system, the Tang Dynasty will inevitably face such bandits sooner or later."

"You country bumpkin, I will definitely kill you!!"

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom not only lost the hearts of the people, but the infighting among its leaders was also a fatal blow.

Yang Xiuqing, the Eastern King, was proud of his achievements and was no longer satisfied with the title of Eastern King, believing that Hong Xiuquan was just a figurehead.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rose to power through the worship of God, with Hong Xiuquan claiming to be the second son of God. This quickly won over the people, but it also sowed the seeds of future troubles for himself.

If Hong Xiuquan can be the son of God, then why can't I, Yang Xiuqing, be God himself?

Yang Xiuqing invented the "Heavenly Father Descending to Earth" trope, using the Heavenly Father's name to issue orders to Hong Xiuquan.

In the magnificent hall, Yang Xiuqing suddenly began to convulse.

His attendants quickly helped him up, and everyone in the hall looked over.

The convulsions lasted for quite a while before Yang Xiuqing gradually calmed down.

He straightened his back, and his voice became deep and resonant, "Here is the Father."

The expressions of the surrounding generals were incredibly varied; they could only kneel down and shout that the Heavenly Father had descended to earth.

Hong Xiuquan stood beside the dragon throne, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.

Looking at the eccentric Yang Xiuqing, he wished he could draw his sword and chop the charlatan to pieces.

But Hong Xiuquan had no choice; exposing Yang Xiuqing was tantamount to exposing himself.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Hong Xiuquan, feeling extremely aggrieved, bent his knees and knelt before Yang Xiuqing.

Yang Xiuqing, with his eyes closed, pointed at Hong Xiuquan's nose and cursed, "Heavenly Father asks you, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom soldiers are fighting bloody battles on the front lines, have you treated them unfairly?"

"Father, I ask you again: the great cause of the Kingdom of Heaven is not yet accomplished, yet you are content with pleasure. What kind of behavior is this?"

"Take him out and give him twenty lashes as punishment!"

Hong Xiuquan buried his head in the ground, his back teeth grinding together.

He clearly wanted to slap the other person twice, but he had to respectfully reply, "I know I was wrong, and I will definitely correct my mistakes and follow the teachings of God the Father."

Yang Xiuqing's performance was so convincing that it made the emperors of various dynasties feel nauseous.

"Oh God, please, God strike them down! We can't take this anymore!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang covered his eyes with both hands, so embarrassed that he dug his toes into the ground.

If the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was only like this, then it would be better if the world didn't fall into their hands.

Even if the Qing Dynasty was bad, it was still a legitimate dynasty with basic social order and laws.

If these charlatans really gained power, who knows what kind of mess they would make of the country.

They might not even be as good as the Western Jin Dynasty!

During the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty.

Emperor Kangxi clenched the Buddhist prayer beads in his hand, so angry that he was laughing.

How could future generations have lost half of their country to a bunch of clowns?

Even if Emperor Kangxi was very patient, he felt that he had lost all face.

If the opponent were a powerful ruler like Li Shimin, the Qing Dynasty would have perished, and that would have been the end of it; they were simply outmatched.

But it was Hong Xiuquan!

Relying on a flawed cult theory, they managed to defeat the Qing Dynasty so decisively that it could not retaliate!

Emperor Kangxi wished he could immediately take up his sword and go back to the late Qing Dynasty to kill all those unworthy descendants.
