Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 101 Marriage?I, Liao Wang, do not agree!

Chapter 101 Marriage?I, Liao Wang, do not agree!
As soon as he mentioned marriage, Zhu Qi thought of a very famous sentence in later generations: In the Ming Dynasty, if we don't marry, we don't pay compensation and don't cut off the land. The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies!
However, during the Hongwu period, the Ming Dynasty did not actually have such a concept. At least Zhu Yuanzhang did not set the capital in Beiping, but in Nanjing.

Every part of this sentence actually comes from the early Ming Dynasty and the late Ming Dynasty.

The previous sentence "My Ming Dynasty does not reconcile with relatives, does not pay compensation and does not cede land" is actually what Emperor Yongle said.

The original saying is "The honor of our dynasty's national power is beyond the ancient times. He controls the northern captives, the west, the South Island, and the western barbarians. There is no marriage between the Han, no alliance with the Tang Dynasty, no thin coins like the Song Dynasty, and no brothers and enemies. present".

And it was said when the Mongolian squadron returned to the court during the second Northern Expedition, it can be said that it swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger.

The emperor guarding the gate of the country is also a saying that appeared in the folks of the Ming Dynasty after Emperor Yongle moved the capital to Beiping, and it was indeed done in the Ming Dynasty.

The king died in Sheji because at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng captured the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Chongzhen did not quit the capital for various reasons until his death, and hanged Meishan. The folks called this event "the king died in Sheji".

That is to say, at this moment in Daming, naturally there is no unspoken rule for not getting married, and the court does not completely reject the matter of getting married.

Zhu Qi listened for a while, and waited for the internal officer to leave, then leaned forward and asked Zhu Biao what was the matter.

There is nothing to hide about the marriage, Zhu Biao quickly talked about it.

After Zhu Qi listened to the ins and outs of his elder brother Zhu Biao, he began to feel that things were a bit beyond his imagination. In other words, the flapping wings of his little butterfly finally began to change the course of history in the early Ming Dynasty!

First of all, it is Goryeo, because Zhu Qi directly pushed the Beiyuan navy in a way that destroyed ancient times on the Bohai Sea, and this feat was accomplished when the Beiyuan navy was nearly twice as large as the Ming army!
Koryo was watching the battle from the beginning to the end, but because of the slow speed, when they wanted to join the battlefield, the vanguard of the Beiyuan Navy was defeated.

Seeing this situation, the Korean navy silently withdrew from the battle.

This is also the reason why the Northern Yuan Army was almost wiped out in the Bohai War, but the Koryo Navy was able to retreat completely.

Because of this, Goryeo's gallbladder was broken, so this year an envoy was arranged for an unprecedented visit.

Due to the history of marriage with the previous Yuan Dynasty, the king of Koryo asked a princess of Ming Dynasty to come and marry him, and from then on he was willing to become a subject of Ming Dynasty and accept the canonization of Ming Dynasty.

Just like in the Yuan Dynasty, he became the son-in-law state of the Central Plains Dynasty!
Zhu Qi panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Zhu Biao:

"Brother, this Goryeo was determined to get along with Beiyuan before, we might be playing tricks, he just wanted to appease Beiyuan and me, Daming, and take advantage of the opportunity!"

After Zhu Qi finished speaking, Zhu Biao continued:
"I thought so too at first, but today I heard that the former king of Koryo, Wang Zhuan, was hacked to death on the main hall by his eunuchs in September of the seventh year of Hongwu. Xuan became the king of Goryeo."

Zhu Qi hurriedly said again:
"Like a father, like a son, we must be on guard!"

Zhu Biao smiled and said:

"The key lies in the fact that the great king of the Jiangning Mansion, Yu, might not be the son of this Wang Zhuan.

Hearing that Wang Yu was the son of a powerful official named Xin Tun, Wang Zhuan abolished Wang Yu's position as the son of the eldest son. Later, Wang Zhuan was killed, and Wang Yu was supported by his courtiers as the new King of Koryo. "

After Zhu Biao finished speaking, Zhu Qicai remembered that this seemed to be a famous historical event in the history of Goryeo.

Xin Tun is also a famous Goryeo figure in history, also nicknamed "King Quan".

However, I vaguely remember that the newly succeeded King Xuan of Gaoli seems to be quite rampant.

Later, he also took the initiative to launch the Liaodong Campaign, trying to occupy Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty.

However, Li Chenggui, the general who was sent to the front, knew that he was no opponent of Ming Dynasty, so he returned to his division and successfully rebelled, and established the Lee Dynasty Korea.

The name of the country of North Korea is also Zhu Yuanzhang, so it was canonized.

In the original history, after the last king of Goryeo, Wang Xuan, continued to flirt with Beiyuan after he succeeded to the throne, it was not expected that because of the beginning of his succession, Zhu Qi directly fought a battle in the Bohai Sea, and the Goryeo Kingdom directly sent envoys, wanting to The relationship has eased.

This Gaoli is definitely the one that Daming wants to win over. After all, Gaoli is now Beiyuan's right-hand man. If he can pull Gaoli over, it is equivalent to cutting off one of Beiyuan's arms.

It is only natural that the courtiers would discuss it emotionally.

Here Goryeo wants to ask for a Ming princess, and when the other foreign envoys in Honglu Temple heard this, they all yelled for the princess to get married.

For example, Champa, Java, Nan'an, Siam, Chenla, etc. Needless to say, these are old tributary states.

But there was one country that surprised Zhu Qi, and that was the country of Wa.

To be honest, Zhu Qi thought that no one had thought of the Wa Kingdom, because the current Wa Kingdom was the most famous Southern and Northern Dynasties era in history, and it was still hard to separate.

Of course, Zhu Qi knew that the final winner would be the Muromachi Shogunate of the Northern Dynasty if he did not intervene. I guess many people are not familiar with the Muromachi Shogunate. , everyone must be familiar with it.

The Warring States Period was the era of the last years of the Muromachi Shogunate.

At this time, the chief general of the Muromachi Shogunate was Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, who had just succeeded General Zhengyi.

At this time, the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom in the Northern Dynasty was Emperor Hou Yuanrong. This person is not familiar to everyone, but if another person is connected, everyone will be very familiar with it.

Emperor Hou Yuanrong is the grandfather of Monk Ikkyu.

In Zhu Qi's mind, he couldn't help but think of the magical BGM in his childhood.

chee chee gee gee gee gee...

After talking about the Northern Dynasty, the Southern Dynasty followed. As long as you know one thing, the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty at this time is Emperor Changqing.

Because there were really no famous figures in the Southern Dynasties, Emperor Changqing was considered one.

Because of the turbulent era of the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the Wa Kingdom, the Wa Kingdom still sends envoys to Daming, and one faction is that both the Northern and Southern Dynasties sent envoys.

Both the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Dynasties hoped to be recognized by the Ming Dynasty, that is, canonized. To put it bluntly, they wanted to form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty and obtain orthodox status.

The two emperors of the Northern and Southern Dynasties both wanted to get the princess of Ming Dynasty, and the quarrel was so intense.

All of a sudden, three No. 40 foreign envoys were begging for the princess.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang has many daughters, they are not enough for them to grab, and there is only one person who is not married at the age of marriage, Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest daughter, Princess Lin'an.

The rest of the princesses are too young, at least they have to wait another two or three years.

After hearing Prince Zhu Biao's detailed narration, Zhu Qi was a little surprised. Didn't Princess Lin'an marry Li Qi in history?
Li Qi is his good brother, and Zhu Qi would be very happy if he could marry his sister.

Although in history, the ending of Li Qi and Princess Lin'an was very bleak because of the involvement of Li Shanchang, but with Zhu Qi around, he would naturally think of ways to avoid these tragedies.

But she didn't expect that Princess Lin'an had already been discussed by the ministers about which foreign king she should marry before she got married with Li Qi.

Seeing Zhu Qi's expression, Zhu Biao smiled and asked:

"Why, third child, do you think this marriage should not be done?"

Zhu Qi nodded and said:
"During the Han Dynasty, marriages were made because of the power of the Xiongnu. In the Tang Dynasty, marriages were made for the sake of alliances. However, no matter in the Han Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty, marriages were actually of little use. Instead, they were a dowry gift, which was quite rich.

This has nothing to do with my Central Plains Dynasty. My Great Ming has abundant martial virtues. The only opponent in the world, Bei Yuan, is also useless. There is really no need for a marriage. "

Zhu Biao said with a smile:

"When did the third child talk like those sour scholars? In the past few days, some scholars have gathered to discuss this matter, and some of them have the same thoughts as you.

However, between countries, there is no fixed number of strengths and weaknesses, and the world is impermanent. This Wang Baobao is a strange man. Now his reputation is rising, and the future of Beiyuan is still unknown.

At this time, it is better to have more allies than more enemies.

Of course, this is also the view of some of these officials. "

Zhu Qi hurriedly asked: "Then what do you think, big brother?"

Zhu Qi didn't know Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude. After all, there were very few records about princesses in the Ming Dynasty, and there was no princess with any great political influence at all.

Zhu Biao's opinion is naturally very important, but Zhu Biao sighed and said:
"Yu Qing, I naturally don't want my sister to marry a foreign country, but Yu Guo, the ministers and workers above the court are all talking about getting married, and choosing Korea is the most sensible choice."

Zhu Qi was a little stunned, what Zhu Biao said was indeed true, getting married with Korea was indeed the wisest choice.

It's not to win over Goryeo, but to get close to Goryeo, which can effectively divide the relationship between Beiyuan and Goryeo.

It has always been the most effective way to prevent Beiyuan and Gaoli from joining forces and fighting one by one.

To put it bluntly, the reason for this is that Bei Yuan has not collapsed, but has become more and more courageous.

This Wang Baobao became the spiritual pillar of Bei Yuan, but after Wang Baobao won the Battle of Lingbei in history, he seemed to die on the grassland inexplicably in the eighth year of Hongwu two years later. History records are very confusing about the cause of his death. , He also said that he died of illness, and he also said that he was dying.

However, the possibility of dying is not very high. After all, Wang Baobao is only in his thirties now, and he is in his prime.

Wang Baobao in this time and space is still alive and well, but has changed many historical processes accordingly.

The crown prince Zhu Biao and Zhu Qi finished chatting here, and the banquet over there was almost over.

Zhu Qixin was thinking about Princess Lin'an, so naturally he didn't sleep well at night.

On the next day, at the first court meeting in the first lunar month, after a burst of ceremony and music, the envoys from various countries really raised the matter formally in the court hall.

First, the envoys sent by Goryeo expressed that the new king would succeed to the throne, and that they were willing to reconcile with Daming, expressed their acceptance of Daming's favor, and asked for another princess.

What he said was a sincere word, and he boasted Daming to the sky.

After the Koryo envoy finished speaking, the Japanese envoy next to him also jumped out, yelling loudly that he was also willing to accept Daming's grace, and only asked for a Daming princess!
The person who spoke was the envoy of the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom, but the envoy of the Northern Dynasty was naturally unwilling, and directly said that the envoy was a fake, sent by the puppet dynasty, and could not represent the orthodoxy of the Wa Kingdom.

In addition, it is said that our Northern Dynasty is the orthodox of Japan, and we are willing to accept the favor of Daming and ask the princess of Daming.

The two envoys almost fought directly in the hall, glaring at each other.

Naturally, the other envoys were not happy about it. The Wa Kingdom was divided into the Northern and Southern Dynasties. This Goryeo was Daming's deadly enemy before. Both of them had the cheek to beg the Princess of Daming. We were the ones who paid tribute at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. Tributary country!
We should be more qualified to marry the princess!
There was a quarrel for a while.

If the quarrel continued like this, of course the reason for the quarrel would not come out, but the court was very lively, and all the foreigners were vying to show their loyalty, and in the end it was nothing.

As for whether or not to get along with each other in the final analysis, there is still a discussion in the court, and the envoys will not be able to say anything, so let's go back to Honglu Temple first.

The discussion above the court naturally had nothing to do with Zhu Qi, the King Sai of Ming Dynasty had many people in charge of the army, but not many people participated in government affairs.

Zhu Qi didn't think too much about it, and planned to take Lan Xian'er to the temple fair that started on the first day of the new year.

But when he heard that Li Qi was looking for him, Zhu Qi went to receive Li Qi first. Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Qi came, he knelt down in front of him, crying and saying:

"Your Highness! Your Highness must help my little brother this time!"

Seeing what Li Qi said was so miserable, Zhu Qi hurriedly asked what was the matter, and then Li Qi started talking with snot and tears, only then did Zhu Qi know that this Li Qi came for the matter of Princess Lin'an.

This Li Qi had known Princess Lin'an before, and the two had a good impression of each other. In the eighth year of Hongwu, Li Qi's mother had told Empress Ma about this time.

It’s just that Li Qi followed Zhu Qi to go to the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. On the contrary, he missed the best time. He wanted to marry Princess Lin’an after returning from Beiping. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang also wanted to marry Li Shanchang. of.

But I didn't expect that because of the Bohai War, the envoys from Goryeo and the Northern and Southern Dynasties from the Japanese Kingdom somehow came, and even the small countries wanted to make marriages one by one.

The marriage of Princess Lin'an seems to have changed!

Even Li Shanchang didn't dare to object to the marriage. Is the family important and the country important?He, Li Shanchang, didn't dare to do such a thing to be caught.

Seeing Li Qi crying for his father and mother, Zhu Qi slapped the table and made up his mind.

This man is afraid of choosing the wrong career, and the woman is afraid of marrying the wrong man. Since my sister and Li Qi have a crush on each other, why not kiss her ass!

Looking around the world, which country is a good place?

Goryeo has a lot of ambitions, and if she marries a princess, she will also stare at Liaodong.

Not to mention the Japanese country, you can't marry a little Japanese if you marry anyone.

As for other small countries, some modern Nanyang island countries can also be said to be tourist attractions. These years, the Nanyang island countries used to blow northwest wind?
Not to mention the tropical rainforests in Southeast Asia.

Don't talk about it, this marriage, what to say, I, the king of Liao, will not agree!
Zhu Qi rolled his eyes and began to think of ideas...

(Continue to pay New Year’s Eve greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year! Everyone is making a fortune! Huge and powerful!)
