"Today is the ranking of the fifth and six emperors. Do you have any candidates in mind? Let's talk about the sixth emperor today!"

Yongzheng: It's hard for others to guess, but I can guess one or two. I can't say that the First Emperor is definitely the first. I think the second, third and fourth are Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and Taizu of the Ming Dynasty. The ranking is not clear. , among the fifth and sixth positions, I think it is Han Gaozu and Emperor Yongle. It is difficult to rank which one is fifth and which one is sixth!

Liu Bang: I think you, Yongzheng, carry the brand of Qing Dynasty. You are better than Kangxi, and your several speeches are of a certain standard!
Yongzheng: Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty read it!
Zhu Di: I also think I can be on the list. What Emperor Yongzheng said is indeed somewhat true. I don’t know if I, Mr. Zhu, ranked sixth or fifth. I think I should be sixth!
Zhu Yuanzhang: Ranking sixth is pretty good. My Ming Dynasty ranked two in the top ten. Not bad, really good!

Liu Qi: Then did my big guy get three of them? This really makes the big guy look bad!

Cao Cao: Awesome!If Yongzheng is right, wouldn't this big man have three of them?

Yang Jian: This big man is indeed strong!
"Emperor Yongzheng was actually right, but he is just not sure about the ranking. Let's talk about the sixth outstanding emperor - Yongle Emperor Zhu Di."

"Everyone knows a lot about this emperor, so we can mainly talk about his merits and demerits."

"Emperor Yongle was also a controversial emperor. In your eyes, the emperor's ability is based on merit. Although Zhu Di has had his faults, his merits outweighed his faults. This is an honor."

"As for us future generations, although achievements are very important, there is another more important thing, which is "legacy." Why I often call Zhu Di the Yongle Emperor instead of Ming Chengzu? This stems from one of Zhu Di's achievements, "Yongle Emperor" "Grand Ceremony".

""Yongle Grand Ceremony" is an achievement of Zhu Di, which has left a profound mark on the historical research and cultural heritage of future generations."

"Yongle Dadian brings together seven or eight thousand ancient and modern books, covering a wide range of content and knowledge. Zhu Di's original intention of compiling "Yongle Dadian" was to demonstrate the country's prestige and benefit future generations, and this masterpiece has indeed realized its own value. understand Zhu Di’s ideals and goals.”

"However, the "legacy" Zhu Di left to future generations is not limited to this."

"Renovating the Great Wall is another contribution Zhu Di made to the flower-growing country and future generations during his reign."

"We all know that the First Emperor built the Great Wall, but in fact, most of what we saw in Kyoto that day was the "Ming Great Wall", which was the Great Wall that was renovated during Zhu Di's reign. The workload was so large that it was built by the First Emperor. Times or even dozens of times.”

"Without this move, perhaps all we would have seen at that time were broken rubble and dust blown all over the field by the wind."

"If Qin Shi Huang "gave birth" to the Great Wall, then Zhu Di was the character who raised him up."

"Secondly, there is the Grand Canal. When I introduced the second generation Emperor Sui Yang, I said that this Grand Canal was blocked after a short time."

"Zhu Di later dredged the Grand Canal, which was also evaluated as a "good deed" by later generations. Although his original intention was to allow the food and materials transported to BJ to arrive smoothly and quickly, this move not only achieved this goal, but also The economic development and cultural exchanges between the southern and northern flower-growing countries also play a vital role."

"These three points mainly talk about the impact on future generations. When it comes to the ranking of emperors and their achievements, Emperor Guangwu and Emperor Yongle must have changed. Emperor Yongle had many mistakes. If we look at the "legacy", then Zhu Di Ranking sixth is no problem." "We are talking about Zhu Di's policies during his administration."

"After Zhu Di ascended the throne, he established the capital in BJ. I almost forgot about this. The "Forbidden City" left by Zhu Di can also be regarded as a "legacy."

"After taking power, he began to conquer Mongolia to consolidate the Ming Dynasty's position in the Central Plains, and occupied Annan to expand the territory of the Central Plains."

"At the same time, major reforms have also been carried out in the bureaucracy to make the government more stable."

"We'll talk about the war later. Let me summarize it first."

"Zhu Di's biggest policy should be diplomacy."

"After Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, came to the throne, he continued the folk "sea ban" policy during the Zhu Yuanzhang period, restored the management of the three municipal shipping departments of Mingzhou, Quanzhou, and Guangzhou, and opened the door to overseas countries to welcome tribute from the Ming Dynasty."

"Zhu Di stipulated that "when all vassal states send envoys to the court, they should all be treated with sincerity, and those who come to trade with earth and goods should be listened to as they wish."

"In addition to continuing the tribute trade, Zhu Di took the initiative to send Zheng He to the Western Seas to vigorously develop friendly exchanges and economic and cultural exchanges with Asian and African countries."

"Whether Zheng He's voyages to the West were in search of Emperor Jianwen, or because Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty felt that his throne was not glorious enough to promote his imperial power, I personally think that there may be some truth to it."

"But no matter what the purpose was, the result of Zheng He's voyages to the West was undoubtedly an objective and greatly promoted the economic and cultural development of the country and Asian and African countries."

"Now I mainly want to talk about Zheng He's voyages to the West. This period of history also had a profound impact on later generations."

"Zheng He's original surname is "Ma". He was born in Kunming Prefecture, Yunnan. He is a Hui nationality. His ancestors believed in Islam for four generations."

"When Zheng He was young, he was captured when the Ming army invaded Yunnan. He became a eunuch and was sent to the Yan Palace to serve Zhu Di, the then King of Yan."

"Later, King Yan raised an army to quell Jingnan, and Zheng He followed Chengzu on the expedition. He made many military exploits and was given the surname "Zheng"."

Li Longji: I*!This one is still a eunuch!

Cheng Yaojin: It’s hard to imagine that a eunuch has a great influence on future generations!
"After Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty came to the throne, Zheng He was promoted to an internal official and eunuch, and was ordered to lead a huge fleet to visit Western countries."

"There is a reason why Zhu Di chose Zheng He to visit Western countries. Otherwise, he would not be a eunuch traveling to various countries."

"Although Zheng He is just a eunuch, he has rich military experience and is brave and good at fighting. Zheng He also believes in Islam, which makes it easier to visit Islamic countries. After Zheng He entered the palace, he was influenced to believe in Buddhism and Taoism at the same time."

"During the Ming Dynasty, Borneo was the main boundary. The east of Brunei was called "Eastern Ocean", and the west of Brunei became "Western Ocean"."

"In this way, Zheng He was appointed as the envoy to the West and led the mission seven times from the third year of Yongle to the eighth year of Xuande."
