Chapter 374 Sima Zhong: Is King Joffrey a fool?
Because Game of Thrones is a popular American TV series.

So there are a lot of barrages on the screen.

By watching these comments and everyone else in the picture looking confused, only Emperor Joe himself is full of vigor and vitality.

Those who previously supported Emperor Joe.

The ancients who thought Joffrey was an iron-blooded king also fell silent.

Because of the comments from other viewers on the sky screen.

We can roughly draw an idea of ​​the political situation at that time.

It should be Eddard Stark, who represents the entire Northern forces.

The northern forces have already taken up arms.

The main purpose is to rescue Eddard Stark.

Junlin is equivalent to the Zhou emperor and has great righteousness.

The key is that they hold important hostages.

It is entirely possible to negotiate.

And Eddard Stark has already admitted his defeat.
Gave full face to King Joffrey of King's Landing.

At this time, let Ed go to exile to the border wall by himself.

The rebellion in the entire North will also end.

The two sides can even form an alliance through marriage to jointly fight against other rebellious forces.

This exchange of interests and temporary alliance is in the interests of all parties.

It is also a method that ancient politicians are very familiar with.

But Joffrey insisted on having his own way.

Forcefully beheaded Ed.

Further escalate the war that could have been avoided.

The ally that could have been won over turned into a mortal enemy.

This political level

It was really something that the ancient kings looked down upon.

Late Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao saw Eddard Stark's head fall to the ground on the sky.

Combined with the comments in the barrage.

I have a rough idea of ​​the political situation in the plot on the sky screen.

Then Cao Cao felt that it looked very familiar.

Eddard Stark is Ma Teng.

Now he is an official in the court.

It's like being controlled in your own hands.

Ma Chao and his men in Xiliang are equivalent to the Northern Territory in the TV series.

If Ma Chao rebelled, he would naturally control Ma Teng's entire family first.

But even if Ma Chao really rebelled, or even sent a large army to invade, the two sides were already on the verge of war.

I would not kill Ma Teng and the others right away.

And will hold Ma Teng in his hands.

As a potential bargaining chip.

Joffrey on the canopy was fine.

He clearly holds the leader of the northern forces, an important bargaining chip.

And through this bargaining chip, he can transform the North into his ally.

But in order to gain momentary pleasure, he ended up chopping off the other person's head.

Cao Cao would never be able to do such a thing.

Cao Cao then shook his head and said:

"When I first saw this King Joffrey, I really thought he was an emperor!"

“Now it seems, haha.”

"It's just Tianmu's mockery of it."

"No matter how King Joffrey behaves in the future, he chopped off the head of a potential ally despite everyone's opposition."

"This is destined. His level can never be too high."

It's not just Cao Cao.

Basically emperors of all dynasties.

Including those emperors who once thought that Joffrey might be a good person.

Now it’s all in my heart,
The evaluation of Joffrey was lowered significantly.

Even Sima Zhong, Emperor Hui of Jin, said with some doubt:
"Why did Joffrey have to kill Eddard?"

"Is Joffrey a fool? He doesn't look like one."

"Could it be that Joffrey wants to centralize power?"

"I am from Dajin, so I don't need it."

Sima Zhong speaks foolishly.

Talking about some sensitive content.

The other princes present could only lower their heads in embarrassment.

I was thinking: Why did the emperor mention the centralization of power? Was it a fool trying to stir up trouble? Or was it Jia Nanfeng's idea?
anyway.

As the sky curtain plays.

Joffrey's reputation took a sharp turn for the worse among the ancients.

But some people still have certain fantasies. After all, it is possible that the young and energetic Joffrey just can't stand rebellious people.

Anyone who is a traitor must die!
There is no room for negotiation!
This idea is a bit radical and unwise.

But it’s not that big of a problem.

Makes sense.

But this sky curtain only played the first quote of King Joffrey.

Then other classic quotes began to be played.

For example, in the palace.

A singer performed.

Joffrey applauded him and asked:
【Fingers or tongue? 】

The singer looked confused. What does that mean? It feels a bit dangerous.
And Joffrey continued:

[If you can only keep one, what would you choose? ]

【Fingers or tongue? 】

[Or should I just slit your throat? ]

[Singer: People cannot live without hands. Your Majesty, please have mercy on me. Your Majesty, I will never sing again...]

And finally.

The flustered singer had his tongue cut out.

……

For example, Joffrey, his uncle Stannis rebelled and was about to lead a large army to attack the city.

Joffrey was trapped in the city.

But still very arrogant said:

【If my uncle comes to King's Landing. 】

【I will ride to meet him myself. 】

The uncle of the emperor, the little devil, complimented him: [This is a very brave decision, Your Majesty. Our army will definitely follow behind you.]

[Joffrey: I heard Stannis, he never smiles.]

【And I will make him smile. 】

【Smile bloodily, and cut from his left ear to his right ear. 】

……

Of course there are also classic scenes.

I Am The King!

Joffrey wantonly humiliated his disabled uncle, the Tyrion, and called him a monster.

As a result, his brain was not enough and he was choked by the little devil's words and became incoherent.

I could only shout angrily:

【I can cut off your tongue.】

【I will punish you! 】

【I am the king! 】

Then, the grandfather who actually held power calmly taught him: [Anyone who always says "I am the king" can never be a real king.]

……

A series of quotes from Emperor Joe.

He perfectly portrayed the image of a greedy, rude, arrogant, cruel and stupid young tyrant.

Although it is not real history.

Even though it's just a TV show.

But after this short ten minutes of cut video.

This has already made many ancient people feel jealous of Joffrey.

Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Liu Yu couldn't help but say after seeing Joffrey's performance:

"This Joffrey's stupidity seems to be even worse than that of my unworthy descendant Liu Ziye!"

"Forget about the tyrant."

"The key is that you don't have a brain yet!"

"If Joffrey lives past 20, I lose!"

……

Even in the Southern Dynasties, Liu Song.

At this time, Liu Ziye had already lost power and was imprisoned, waiting for his death from unknown reasons.

See Joffrey's performance.

They couldn't help laughing crazily and said:

"When I was driven out of office, you always said I was cruel."

"Now look at Joffrey!"

"I think I am no worse than him!"

"If I am killed and Joffrey is still alive and well, I will really not accept it!"

Liu Ziye, looking forward to seeing Joffrey's death.

Simultaneously,

It's not just Liu Ziye.
