Chapter 40

Li Shimin looked at the sky and felt somewhat sympathetic to that Ming Chengzu.

He even felt that Ming Chengzu was worse than him.

After all, he hasn't been forced to eat shit yet.

Liu Che remembered that the emperor with a fairly good reputation in later generations was forced to such a point, and smiled on his face: "Sure enough, those who make big things don't care about small things."

Yongle period
The veins on Zhu Di's forehead popped up, and he almost smashed everything on the desk by mistake.

What does it mean that he was forced to eat shit and pretend to be crazy to survive?

He didn't, how could he eat that thing?

But now, no matter whether he eats or not, everyone will think that he has.

Not only the Ming Dynasty, but also previous dynasties and later generations knew that he ate it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di's face was wonderful.

When Zhu Gaochi saw that his father was so angry, he wanted to run away with a wink.

It's a pity that he is too fat, and when he walks around, it's like a small tower is moving. It's hard for Zhu Di not to see it.

"What are you doing?"

Zhu Gaochi quickly stopped and stared at Zhu Di, not knowing how to explain it for a while.

"My son, my son thinks, I miss my mother."

He can only move out his mother now, otherwise he will definitely be beaten again, even if he has bad skin and thick flesh, he can't stand Zhu Di's strength.

Zhu Di waved his hand: "Get out quickly."

Zhu Gaochi immediately took a few steps, and he really rolled out like a meat ball.

However, the fairy on the sky curtain seemed to be afraid that Zhu Di was not embarrassed enough and continued to expose his shortcomings.

"Well, speaking of Ming Chengzu, there is another historical scene."

As soon as these words came out, everyone under the sky became full of energy.

Everyone likes Tianmu now. The fairy not only teaches people to read and write, but also teaches a lot of useful knowledge, enlightens the common people, and tells a lot of interesting things.

The emperors and generals were inspired by these historical events, and the common people just listened to the excitement, so they should watch the big drama.

There were too few recreational activities in ancient times, especially the common people, who really had no other entertainment except for work and food, but now there is a sky screen, it is different.

Fairies often appeared in the sky, and they were very happy to hear the things they said.

Nowadays, the people of all dynasties and generations are looking forward to the appearance of the fairy every day. As soon as the fairy comes out, they know that they will have fun again.

"Zhu Yuanzhang died in the 31st year of Hongwu. In other words, there is only the 31st year of Hongwu in the record, and there should be other years after that. But our Yongle Emperor Zhu Di may have wanted to erase the traces of Zhu Yunwen to show that he had The legitimacy of the throne lasted until the 35th year of Hongwu's reign. He also claimed that his throne was passed down to him by his father. Let's just say, Zhu Yuanzhang could still climb out of the coffin and pass the throne four years after his death? This is not true. Who?"

Zhu Di: ...

I'm tired, I don't love anymore, whatever.

Zhu Yuanzhang: ...

Did the fourth child eat shit and eat his brain?

汉朝
After hearing this, Liu Che couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Haha... It's really interesting. This Ming Chengzu is a bit unscrupulous and too thick-skinned."

Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin was also speechless.

How to say this kind of thing?Even he doesn't know how to evaluate it.

Qin Dynasty
The First Emperor had the same idea as Zhu Yuanzhang. He was also wondering whether Ming Chengzu was stupid for eating shit.

Many people from all dynasties and generations couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Those who dare to be emperors are very cautious."

"This Ming Chengzu seems to be as thick-skinned as Sun Ergouzi in our village."

"The royal stuff is pretty interesting too."

"What was he thinking?"

"It's a little too particular."

After Wuyou finished exposing the dark history of Ming Chengzu, he still praised him a lot: "Well, we will talk about the historical facts later. Generally speaking, Ming Chengzu was a promising emperor. He moved the capital to BJ , guarding the country as a king. Militarily, he went to the north five times to consolidate the northern border defense. Culturally, he ordered people to compile the Yongle Dadian, sent Zheng He to the West many times, strengthened friendly exchanges between China and foreign countries, and strengthened domestic affairs. On the other hand, he improved the civil service system, established a cabinet, prospered the economy, strengthened the national power, and created the Yongle era."

"In the 22nd year of Yongle, Zhu Di died and was buried in Changling. The temple was named Taizong. More than a hundred years later, Ming Shizong changed the temple name to Chengzu, and later generations were called Ming Chengzu, also known as Yongle Emperor."

Wuyou summarized the life of Ming Chengzu in a few words: "There is another saying about Changling. It is said that the archaeological team wanted to excavate Changling at that time, but because the scale of Changling was so large and the conditions at the time were limited, it was difficult to excavate. It’s very big, so I thought I’d test the waters with the smaller Dingling first, and then… everyone knows what Dingling is like, and in order to protect cultural relics, Changling has not been excavated.”

Zhu Di heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.

This was the best news he heard today.

But after Wuyou said something, he almost pouted again.

"But now the Ming Tombs are open to the public, including the Changling Tombs. The Ming Tombs have been designated as a cultural relic protection unit and have been open for people to visit. If I have time to go to BJ, I can take everyone to see the Ming Tombs." Take a look and also visit Changling."

Zhu Di's face was ashen: No, I don't want to go.

The First Emperor who had already visited the Terracotta Warriors: "Very good, you can go and see, but I don't know how the tickets compare to my Terracotta Warriors?"

Liu Che, who was also visited Maoling: "It is very large? Can it be as large as my Maoling? How much is the ticket price?"

Li Shimin: "It shouldn't be as good as my Zhaoling. If you are free, you can go and see it."

Zhu Yuanzhang: ...

Zhu Yuanzhang had complicated thoughts.

Being able to visit his son's tomb while he was alive always gave him an almost insane feeling.

Wuyou had a smile on his face: "Because I want to talk about the entire Ming Dynasty, I can only briefly talk about Emperor Yongle first. When I have time later, I will talk about each emperor individually. By the way, Ming Dynasty There is another major event that needs to be mentioned during the Chengzu period, and that is Zheng He’s voyages to the West. During the Yongle period, Zheng He made seven voyages to the West, reaching as far away as East Africa and the Red Sea, which greatly promoted cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries and also promoted The national prestige of the Ming Dynasty was established earlier than the Age of Discovery in the West. Unfortunately, after Zheng He, the Ming Dynasty never sailed to the Western Seas. After the Age of Discovery in the West began, the Ming Dynasty was still stuck in its own ways, leaving our descendants far behind Falling behind the West also caused a century of national humiliation. If possible, we all hope that Zheng He could go further, and we also hope that Ming Dynasty can open its eyes to see the world..."

On the sky screen, a huge world map unfolded.

Emperors of all dynasties and generations felt their hearts tightening. Seeing such a detailed map, they immediately ordered someone to draw it.

The map marked the land area of ​​the Ming Dynasty and also marked the routes of Zheng He's seven voyages to the West.

"More than 80 years after Zheng He's voyages to the West, the Portuguese came to Macau. The sea where the Sanbao ships were sailing had been controlled by Westerners. In the following years, Europe explored the world through great voyages, embarked on bloody colonization, and madly plundered the world. Wealth, but the entire Ming Dynasty was addicted to pleasure, tired of internal fighting, and complacent with its superficial prosperity...until many years later, when the powerful ships and cannons of the West opened the country."

Wuyou's expression was serious, with deep grief on her face: "If you can, please take a good look at this world and learn more about the outside world. Back then, Ming Taizu drove the aliens out of the Central Plains and restored the Chinese clothes. You must not want this land to be lost again..."

"Well, the time for this live broadcast is limited, and the story of the Ming Dynasty will be told here first. In the next issue, we will continue to talk about the emperors of the Ming Dynasty after Ming Chengzu."

"Finally, let's talk about the significance of Zheng He's voyages to the West. Later generations will name the Xisha and Nansha Islands after the leader of Zheng He's voyages."

"The Xisha Islands include the Yongle Islands and the Xuanhe Islands. The Nansha Islands include the Zhenghe Group of Reefs, Yinqing Group of Reefs, Mahuan Island, Feixin Island, and Gongzhen Reef. In addition, place names related to Zheng He have also been left in Indonesia and other countries, such as Sanbao Ridge.”

"There are also four postage stamps issued to commemorate Zheng He's voyages, and the State Council officially approved July 7 as China's Navigation Day."

"Okay, this live broadcast will end here first, and we will see you next time."

Wuyou turned off the projection. This live broadcast lasted longer than every previous one. The talk made her mouth dry, so she picked up the water glass and filled it with more than half a glass of water.

She has nothing to do here.

But billions of people in all time and space have complicated feelings.

Yongle Dynasty

Zheng He looked at the navigation route drawn in the sky, and then heard about the islands and reefs named by later generations in memory of his voyages to the West. His heart beat faster, and his chest was filled with unspeakable emotions, which made him feel like he was about to burst into tears. Feel.

Hearing that later generations designated July 7th as China's Sailing Day, his blood boiled even more, and he felt that such an achievement and being so respected by later generations would be worth dying immediately.
