Daming: Spoilers about the future, Zhu Yuanzhang collapsed

Chapter 298 Zhu Yuanzhang was furious: Our Ming Emperor is easily soluble in water, right? good! Just wait!

Zhu Yuanzhang had deep feelings for the Ming Dynasty that he built with his own hands.

Even after listening to what Han Cheng said, among the later monarchs of the Ming Dynasty, there were many people who would have heard some stories that made their ancestors angry to death.

But after getting angry, Zhu Yuanzhang still wanted to know the subsequent development of Ming Dynasty.

And many things for subsequent descendants.

Who made him the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty?

This heart is still there after all.

To be honest, think about the series of bastard moves Zhu Youtang made.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt sad for his Ming Dynasty.

I just wish I could go over there right now, beat this unfilial descendant to half death, and kill him quickly.

At the same time, I am also worried about the future of Ming Dynasty.

I am even more worried about the descendants who will inherit Zhu Youtang's throne.

As for the mess left by Zhu Youtang, it will be really difficult for the successors to clean it up.

If the person who succeeds Zhu Youtang to the throne is the same person as Zhu Youtang, he will obey the words of the civil servants and only be a person who is exclusive to the civil servants.

Don't care about anything else.

As an emperor, he can definitely do everything smoothly.

Those civil servants must be eager to imprison him.

But once you really want to do something to change the situation of Ming Dynasty.

It is really difficult.

During the reign of Zhu Qi, the civil servant group began to grow in size, and Zhu Jianshen, who succeeded him, tried his best to suppress it.

This curbed the rapid development momentum of the civil service group.

As a result, after finding a successor like Zhu Youtang, all the constraints were cancelled.

There came a sharp rebound.

Civil service power became stronger.

There was no need to ask Han Cheng any more, he could just tell from what Han Cheng had told him before.

By that time, the power of the civilian clique became even greater.

The civil service group he faced was even more difficult to deal with than when Zhu Jianshen succeeded to the throne.

Under such circumstances, it was really difficult for the emperor to exercise his imperial power and do something.

It is precisely because of knowing this that Zhu Yuanzhang has been thinking about this matter.

When Han Cheng heard Zhu Yuanzhang, he asked this question out of the blue.

Although it was a bit surprising, it was not too surprising.

After being together for so long, he knew Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament very well.

Han Cheng sorted out his thoughts and said: "After Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youtang passed away, he and Empress Zhang's son, Crown Prince Zhu Houzhao, succeeded to the throne.

The name is Zhengde.

Zhu Houzhao was also a prince with an extremely stable position in the history of the Ming Dynasty. "

Hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little happy and unexpected.

"What's wrong? Could it be that Zhu Youtang treated his son Zhu Houzhao without reservation just like we treated our Biao'er?"

Just like us, he started training his son to handle government affairs a long time ago?

Father and son share the same team? "

No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang was so surprised. After all, he had no good impression of Zhu Youtang before this.

It's an existence that will kill you if you see it.

Who would have thought that now I would hear such a thing from Han Cheng's mouth.

Is this what Zhu Youtang can do?

After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Han Cheng shook his head and said: "This is naturally different.

Although Zhu Youtang hired many teachers for his son, he was still far away from the way his father treated his eldest brother.

The emperor and prince like father and eldest brother can be said to be the first couple in history.

It's simply unprecedented. "

After hearing what Han Cheng said, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh and said: "That's natural, we chose the prince personally and he is our son.

No matter how good we do, no matter how big the country we conquer, we will still have to leave the country in his hands in the future.

Our son, what should we worry about?

That is to say, your eldest brother still doesn’t want to be emperor at this time.

If he wants to sit in this position and shoulder this burden, he just needs to tell us, and we will definitely step down and make way for him. "

After saying this, the smile on his face became thicker.

But at the same time, I was even more confused. Since Zhu Youzhang treated Biao'er as he did, why did Han Cheng say that he was another prince with an extremely stable position in the history of the Ming Dynasty?

Han Cheng looked at the curious Zhu Yuanzhang and spoke directly without showing off:

"The reason for this is because he is the only son of Zhu Youtang and Queen Zhang."

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Well, it turns out that this is how he, another stable prince in the history of the Ming Dynasty, came to be.

If you calculate it this way, it's really safe.

There was not even anyone to compete for the throne for him.

"After Zhu Houzhao passed away, he was also called Ming Wuzong."

"Wuzong?"

Upon hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately thought of many things and smiled on his face.

What he was most worried about did not happen. After Zhu Houzhao succeeded to the throne, he did not blindly listen to the civil officials like his father Zhu Youtang.

Not to mention anything else, just this Ming Wuzong can explain a lot of things.

Although according to the rules of temple names, Wuzong is not a purely complimentary temple name, but it can be crowned as Wuzong.

That shows that this emperor must be fond of martial arts.

For an emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang who conquered the world, his favorite thing was this kind of descendants.

At the same time, we also know that after Zhu Youtang left such a mess, what Ming Dynasty needs most is an emperor who is heroic, dares to fight, and is good at martial arts, to suppress the civil servants.

Have a fight with these civil servants.

"Zhu Houzhao must have had quite a bit of controversy in history, right?"

After learning that Zhu Houzhao's temple name was Wuzong, Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at Han Cheng to ask.

Although it was a question, in fact, I already knew it in my heart.

After all, he knew very well how disgusting these Ziwen people were.

Anyone who offends them or restricts their disorderly development will be punished with Spring and Autumn brushwork.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew how powerful Chunqiu's brushwork was.

The same sentence, just interrupted in different places, can sometimes have completely opposite meanings.

When it comes to picking out words and playing with the Spring and Autumn style of writing, each of these literati is better than the last.

They started to attack, each one darker than the last.

Zhu Houzhao was an emperor who encountered an unprecedentedly large civil service power as soon as he came to power. However, after his death, he was given the temple title of Wuzong.

It can be seen from this that there will definitely be unhappiness between him and the civil service group.

Then, some things become natural.

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Han Cheng nodded and said: "Father-in-law, you are right.

Regarding Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Wuzong of Ming Dynasty, the controversy is indeed very big.

Of course, the controversy was not that big in ancient times.

After all, the Ming Dynasty was followed by the Qing Dynasty, which was the Qing Dynasty that was swept away by Li Ting of the Ming Dynasty. It was also the Qing Dynasty that had been compiling the history of the Ming Dynasty for more than a hundred years.

But as we get closer to modern times, the controversy over Zhu Houzhao becomes louder.

Especially in our time.

Because in our time, our minds were much more open than in the past.

Many of them have broken through the shackles of feudal ethics.

When looking at history, from the perspective of the country, more and more people now look at issues from the perspective of the people.

It is no longer the past time to simply look at history from the perspective of the civil servant group or from the perspective of scholars.

The results obtained are naturally different.

According to historical evaluations of Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao was a child who messed around all day long and never grew up.

He has an out-of-touch personality, is dissolute, and is very difficult to learn.

He is simply a complete playboy.

He did a lot of things that seemed childish and ridiculous.

For example, Leopard Fang was whipped and laughed at countless times.

The so-called Leopard Room is a new palace built by Zhu Houzhao in Xiyuan in the second year of Zhengde.

Some constructions were completed within three years of Zhengde's reign.

Construction continued until the seventh year of Zhengde.

There are more than 200 houses, costing more than 240,000 taels of silver.

When many people mention Ming Wuzong, they will talk about his leopard house, saying that it cost a lot and was completely unnecessary to build.

He said that the Ming Dynasty originally had many palaces and residences, but he didn't want to spend so much money to build such a place.

He said that in order to raise leopards, he spent so much money that he turned the palace into a zoo.

He also said that he kept countless beauties there and lived in debauchery.

It was the leopard room, his special place for sexual pleasure.

It is the wine pond and meat forest of King Zhou.

It is also a powerful evidence that Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, was extremely stubborn and extravagant.

For another example, he ignored the dissuasion of his ministers and insisted on leading his troops to conquer the country.

Fight against the little Mongolian prince.

He also changed his name to Zhu Shou and made himself a mighty general.

After spending countless money and food, using countless soldiers and horses, and fighting the little Mongolian prince for five days and five nights.

Fifty-two Ming soldiers were killed and 16 Mongolian princes were killed.

When it comes to this matter, many places will treat it as an anecdote.

This fully reflects Zhu Houzhao's unreliability.

As the king of a country, he actually did these things like a child playing house. "

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but frowned after hearing what Han Cheng said.

He looked at Han Cheng and asked, "What's going on in this leopard room?"

Could it be that he really built such a huge palace specifically to raise leopards? "

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Han Cheng said:

“That’s really what the mainstream is saying.

But later, with the development of the times, everyone in future generations can afford to read.

The most important thing is that with the development of the Internet, many people have had the opportunity to speak out and have access to a lot of knowledge that was previously unavailable.

People's wisdom has opened up, and what many experts and scholars say has become a joke.

The common people are not so easy to be deceived.

I have my own understanding of various things.

Many people have found many loopholes in their rhetoric based on various documents.

I also learned more and more about the true purpose of the Leopard Room.

Zhu Houzhao's reputation also began to gradually reverse.

His leopard room did have leopards, but only one.

The real purpose of the Leopard Room is actually Zhu Houzhao's office.

Many things are handled in the Leopard Room.

He also set up a training ground and other places to practice martial arts..."

After hearing what Han Cheng said, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"We knew that there must be a lot of words in it, all of which were deliberately discredited.

Now it seems that it is indeed the case.

Sure enough, as long as the interests of civil servants are harmed, these people will dare to use spring and autumn brushwork to smear you in all kinds of ways! "

After saying that, he suddenly looked at Han Cheng and said:

"If we remember correctly, Zhu Houzhao's mother, the bitch who married into our Zhu family, but whose heart is still in her mother's family, is still alive.

Are his two brothers still alive? "

For Zhu Youtang's wife, and the two brothers-in-law, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.

He was Zhu Houzhao's uncle, and Zhu Yuanzhang was deeply impressed.

For what they did, they had died countless times during his Hongwu Dynasty!

"Yes, they are all still alive. After Zhu Houzhao died, the three of them were still alive.

Several of them survived until after the Jiajing Dynasty before they were killed one after another. "

Hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart couldn't help but twitch.

Zhu Houzhao didn't even have his mother, and he lived a long time with his two bastard uncles.

It seems that he also died young.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but clenched his fists.

Why did all the accomplished emperors of the Ming Dynasty die so early?

Is it true that he, the ancestor, lived too old and took away their life?

The last time I asked Han Cheng about Zhu Youtang, I talked about the endings of Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling brothers.

Most of Zhu Yuanzhang's attention at that time was attracted by these two evil relatives.

Without thinking about it, the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao was ranked in front of the Jiajing Dynasty.

When I thought about it for a moment, I saw this fatal problem.

At the same time, I also somewhat understood why Zhu Houzhao started building the Leopard House in the second year after he ascended the throne.

Later, my work and even my place of residence were moved here.

There is his mother, this extremely stupid stupid woman, and those two bastard uncles.

As well as the increasingly large civil service group left to him by his father Zhu Youtang.

Living in that place, he would be overwhelmed and out of breath.

It was fine before I became the emperor. Once I became the emperor, I wanted to accomplish something and touch their interests.

Everyone he was familiar with brought him pressure from all aspects.

The most important thing is that these people are still his mother and his uncle.

There is also the minister Gu Ming who his father left behind for him.

Lord and Master of Heaven and Earth, a set of restraints, even if many people really can't stand it, they can only find a way to endure it.

You can't really do it.

What to do in this situation?

The only option is to stay away from them and find your own comfort zone.

"So, it's a lie that he kept many beauties in the leopard room and lived in debauchery?"

Han Cheng nodded and said: "Of course it's fake. In order to portray him as a foolish king, there must be a lot of drinking and sex. Later people, details picked up from many places, can prove that these are slanderous words, specifically to smear of.

Not to mention the rest, such a licentious king is accompanied by so many beauties every day.

He didn't even leave any heirs. Is this reasonable?

Not reasonable at all.

It wouldn't matter if he was a sick boy, but Zhu Houzhao had been strong and smart since he was a child.

He likes to practice martial arts, and he can personally lead troops and conquer people thousands of miles away.

Isn't it sheer nonsense to raise so many beauties and live such a debauched life without even having a single heir? "

"What? He didn't even leave a son behind?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked when he heard this.

"Wouldn't this mean that after talking about him, the heir has been extinct?"

Han Cheng nodded and said: "It is indeed the extinct heir.

After him, Emperor Jiajing, who succeeded him on the throne, was his cousin.

The image recorded by Zhu Houzhao is seriously inconsistent with the image that more and more people later uncovered. A big reason is that he died.

He failed to leave any descendants.

Those people bullied him for not having a son, especially a son who didn't become emperor.

He became the emperor's cousin, but he was not close to him.

Of course you can come however you want.

Of course, if you have an emperor's son, he will be like Zhu Youtang, who wears the same pants as those civil servants and vents his anger through the same nostril.

If you become a full-time official approval and sealing tool, you will be easily blackmailed. "

"Zhu Houzhao changed his name to Zhu Shou, named himself a mighty general, and led his troops to fight. What happened?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a while, concentrating his mind and no longer thinking about Zhu Houzhao's death.

Instead, he asked about another thing that sounded incredible.

“This is quite sad to say.

Before talking about this matter, I need to tell my father about the little Mongolian prince.

This man's name was Dayan Khan, and he was the leader of Mongolia's Zhongxing.

During his reign, he unified Monan Mongolia, which had been scattered and divided for hundreds of years.

Established his rule.

This person is good at fighting and full of ambition.

When he was forty-four years old, after consolidating huge power, he began to lead his troops south to conquer the Ming Dynasty.

He didn't take Daming seriously.

This is because during the Ming Xiaozong period, various operations by the government and the public led to the weak border defense forces of the Ming Dynasty.

Meng Yuan people often invaded border areas.

At that time, many trade gateways between the Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties were also closed.

This is very uncomfortable for the Mongolian and Yuan tribes.

So what did they do?

If you need something, just come to the area near Daming to get some.

After beating the Ming Dynasty hard, the Ming Dynasty will continue to open the border to trade with them.

The Ming Dynasty at this time is no longer the Ming Dynasty before.

Knowing that this man personally led more than 50,000 elite troops to the south, many civil servants panicked.

It was under this situation that Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, stood up and expressed his desire to lead the expedition in person.

There is no doubt that his decision was unanimously rejected by the civil service group.

By this time, most of the military power had been in the hands of civilian officials.

The Minister of War is a civilian official, and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is also controlled by civilian officials.

They, the civil servants, had good reasons for refusing the emperor's expedition.

Then Zhu Qizhen, the Ming emperor who had achieved glorious results, was brought up.

Use him as a negative teaching material to tell Zhu Houzhao how dangerous it is for the emperor to have a personal certificate. "

Hearing what Han Cheng said, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but clenched his fists.

First, he was angry at those civil servants for being so arrogant and domineering.

The second is that he is angry that Zhu Qizhen cannot live up to his expectations.

How many years of Ming Dynasty and lifespan he had lost in one battle!

If it hadn't been for that bastard and that extremely embarrassing battle, maybe his Ming Dynasty would have lived through three hundred years!

And it was not that difficult for Zhu Houzhao to lead his troops on an expedition.

"Of course, in addition to these superficial reasons, there is actually a more important reason that is tacitly understood by each other.

That's because they didn't want the emperor to regain military power.

They know very well whether military power is important or not.

Until the time of Zhu Jianshen, the emperor had military power in his hands.

They finally met a person like Zhu Youtang and took the opportunity to seize military power.

At this time, it is natural to not want to hand over part of the military power.

The emperor with military power in his hands is too difficult to deal with..."

"So Zhu Houzhao changed his name and made himself a mighty general, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice sounded, already filled with anger.

In order to fight for power and gain, these people have lost their faces.

He doesn’t even care about such a powerful enemy!

Han Cheng nodded: "Yes, he changed his name and added himself as the Governor-General Military Affairs General Wuwei and the Chief Military Officer.

Although this method seems ridiculous, it perfectly circumvents the various restrictions set by the civil servants.

A big loophole was exploited.

After all, it was Zhu Shou who led the army. What did he have to do with his Zhengde Emperor, Zhu Houzhao?

It can be said that his operation directly confused many civil servants.

No one thought that he could still play like this.

After getting the name of personal expedition, he immediately set off without stopping.

He also organized food and fodder for various soldiers and horses, led 50,000 soldiers and horses in Yingzhou, and encountered the little Mongolian prince.

The two sides fought for five days and five nights.

He repulsed the little Mongolian prince who was ambitious and wanted to trample the Ming Dynasty.

This battle was called the Great Victory of Yingzhou.

One battle shattered Mongolia in the north and its ambition to conquer the Ming Dynasty in the south.

The fighting was fierce, and some of the Meng Yuan people on the opposite side were able to kill Zhu Houzhao's emperor.

After all, Zhu Houzhao personally killed a Meng Yuan man in this battle. "

"Okay! Well done!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help but cheer.

"These are like our children and grandchildren!

This is the style our Ming Emperor should have!

Afraid of them!

We were able to drive out the Tartars back then, but there is no reason why when our sons and grandsons are here, we can’t lead our own troops to conquer them! "

Zhu Yuanzhang's mood finally cheered up.

But after getting excited, he remembered what Han Cheng had said before, and suddenly frowned.

“In such a battle, only sixteen Mongolian soldiers died?

Fifty-two people were killed on the Ming side?

Five days and five nights to achieve such a brilliant result? "

Han Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, only so many people died.

At least that's what's written on it. "

"Fucking fart!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he cursed loudly and his hair and beard were spread out.

"Are you fooling around here?

These people really have no shame at all!

Have you really fooled others into thinking they were fools?

Not to mention fighting, that is, not fighting this battle, just taking more than 50,000 people, running back and forth, and marching down long distances.

There are more than this number of people dying on the road!

Both sides invested more than 100,000 troops, all of whom were elite soldiers, and fought for five days and five nights.

All the Meng Yuan people came to Zhu Houzhao, and Zhu Houzhao even beheaded a Meng Yuan man with his own hands.

In the end, only sixteen Meng Yuan died?

So, out of fifty thousand soldiers, only fifteen people were killed?

Come into it mother!

How dare they stare and tell lies!

How dare you write it down so openly!

Not to mention the elite armies of both sides, which numbered more than 100,000, were fighting against each other.

There are conflicts among some large villages competing for water sources, and sometimes more people die than this.

Let's fuck their mothers! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang cursed loudly, obviously very angry.

How could he not see how outrageous this matter was?

If you think about it carefully, you can understand some of the psychology of those people.

It is nothing more than trying desperately to discredit the emperor and make the emperor angry.

After all, Zhu Houzhao had taken advantage of their loopholes before.

He found a hole in their carefully woven web and slipped out in front of them.

The most important thing is that they also won such a beautiful victory.

Naturally, these people are unhappy inside.

In this case, he would not enjoy the pleasure of being an emperor.

Then use their unique skills to give you a change in Chunqiu's brushwork.

Let your victory turn into a joke.

Thinking about it now, it really worked.

Not to mention the distortion of the causes and consequences, let’s focus on describing the fact that Zhu Houzhao changed his name to Zhu Shou, and was granted the title of mighty general and led his troops to fight in person.

Then let’s focus on describing the astonishing battle losses on both sides.

A super victory that could clearly shine in the annals of history has turned into a joke.

These people really know how to do it!

Damn it too!

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were a little red.

These bastards really dare to sit on the emperor's head and shit!

How dare you bully his descendants, Zhu Yuanzhang!

Zhu Yuanzhang's anger rose.

I have made up my mind to follow Han Cheng to the Zhu Houzhao period.

I must raise my butcher knife again and kill all these people to relieve the hatred in my heart!

"That's not all. The great victory in Yingzhou is a serious victory.

The young Mongolian prince who unified all the Mongolian tribes in southern Mongolia and was powerful and full of ambitions was not only defeated but retreated.

Failed to enter the Ming Dynasty.

And the little Mongolian prince also died at the age of forty-four.

This man had always been strong before this.

Otherwise, he would not have led his troops south this year to conquer the Ming Dynasty.

But it happened that he died in this year.

Although neither the Ming side nor the Mongolian side recorded the cause of this person's death at all.

But after careful analysis, I'm afraid it has a lot to do with the battle Zhu Houzhao fought with him in Yingzhou.

This was also after this battle, with the death of the little Mongolian prince, the unified Monan Mongolia fell apart again.

This was a well-deserved victory, but it was not recognized by the court.

They refused to admit that this was a great victory.

When the emperor led the victorious soldiers back home in triumph, the princes in the court refused to cheer them.

Not recognizing their merit.

Not only that, they also used their power to distort the battle in various ways in the countryside.

To say that Zhu Houzhao and his troops were able to defeat the little Mongolian prince was simply due to bad luck and unlucky luck.

It was the little Mongolian prince and others who encountered a strong sandstorm.

Soldiers who retreated as a last resort.

The power of those civil servants is strong. Whether it is in the court or in the vast places, they hold the right to speak.

For many things, of course, whatever they say is what they say. "

"boom!"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but slap him hard. He slapped it on the table in front of him.

His eyes were already bloodshot.

"Bullshit! These donkeys got in!

Let’s fuck! How dare they confuse right and wrong like this! Such insult to our descendants!

We see that they all don’t want to live anymore!

If our descendants are really stupid and incompetent people and do some bad things, there is no harm in them adding fuel to the fire.

But damn!

This is obviously a wise master!

He also fought such a victorious battle, only to have them be smeared and turned into a joke! ! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang cursed loudly, his chest heaving violently.

"Han Cheng, can you take us there now?

We must skin every one of these bitches! Kill all nine of them! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang's chilling voice contained overwhelming murderous intent.

He was really blown away by the manipulation of the civil servants during Zhu Houzhao's period.

Han Cheng took a look at the lover system and found that there were no changes.

The passage to Zhengde time and space has not been opened.

Then he shook his head and said: "Father, it's not possible yet, it's not time yet."

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and had to endure all the anger in his heart.

"There were many civil servants during the Zhengde period, right? We remember you!"

He chanted aloud.

When Han Cheng saw this posture, he knew that the civil servants in the Zhengde Dynasty would be lucky again.

Being able to be talked about like this by Zhu Yuanzhang, the ancestor of the dynasty, is a good thing for them.

From now on, if you take Zhu Yuanzhang to the Zhengde Dynasty, there will definitely be a bloody storm.

Serving it to them comes from the warmth of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

"By the way, Han Cheng.

From what you said before, Zhu Houzhao passed away at a young age. Could it be that... his health became worse later on? What disease did he suffer from? "

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been angry for a while, looked up at Han Cheng again and asked his doubts.

He wanted to know the cause of Zhu Houzhao's death.

Han Cheng said: "No, it was because of falling into the water.

After all, Emperor Ming is easily soluble in water. "

"Falling into the water?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes narrowed, like a bloodthirsty tiger!
