【Missing Xiao Zhu】

Lao Zhu reluctantly passed away and handed over his Ming Dynasty to Xiao Zhu!

Lao Zhu is definitely self-taught and has learned all the knowledge in the world. Lao Zhu once asked Liu Bowen how long the Ming Dynasty could continue. Liu Bowen was very euphemistic and said "Ten Thousand Sons and Ten Thousand Suns" in "The Song of Shaobing", saying that it refers to the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and the great achievements of the Ming Dynasty will be enough! This made Old Zhu Longyan very happy. Although the Ming Dynasty was bound to perish, it was not something he could consider after thousands of generations. He promulgated the "Huang Ming Zhu Xun" and even took great pains to stipulate names for his descendants. Each son has his own generation order of descendants and will never conflict with the common people. Lao Zhu really loves the people like his own son. , his descendants are named according to the order of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the five elements complement each other. In this way, if the name is good, the descendants will grow. At the same time, it is clear to the people of the world that naming him will not violate royal taboos. For example, Lao Zhu's son Zhu Di, grandson Zhu Gaochi, and great-grandson Zhu Zhanji used wood, fire, and earth respectively.

At the same time, Lao Zhu hopes to leave a peaceful world to his descendants through his constant killing. He enfeoffed all his sons, hoping that they would be stationed in various places and defend the capital. However, Liu Bowen had already said that when a swallow passes through the city wall, the King of Jinling will lose his temper. How could the uncles and kings with heavy troops assist little Xiao Zhu, who was like a child, especially since Xiao Zhu had read too much "Book of Han", and at the instigation of several scholars, he began to forcefully cut down the vassal vassal. It started smoothly, and several uncles agreed. Zhu Laosi, who was not willing to be cut off from his vassal, rebelled and invaded Nanjing from Yandi, which was known as the Battle of Jingnan in history.

Xiao Xiaozhu's most fatal flaw as an emperor is his kindness to women. He issued the most fatal edict to the generals who led the troops in the war: his fourth uncle was not allowed to be harmed, and he was only allowed to be captured alive! It was a pity that the conquering army watched helplessly as Zhu Laosi escaped, but what they got in exchange was that the other party had the confidence to massacre his own army. Xiao Zhu's indecisiveness ruined his dynasty. Many ministers loyal to him were deliberately killed by Zhu Laosi, especially poor Fang Xiaoru, who was the only one of the ten tribes in the ages.

Xiao Xiaozhu disappeared, there was a fire in the Nanjing Palace, and there was no trace again. Some people say that Lao Zhu had made arrangements and left a secret edict for him. According to the secret edict and the secret path guided by him, Xiao Xiao Zhu escaped and became a monk!

[Capable Zhu Laosi]

Zhu Laosi is a sensible person, and what Xiao Zhu did was actually right. How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch? Even if you are a biological brother, I'm sorry, you should go sleep somewhere else. Cut off the feudal clan, cut off the feudal clan! With the backing of a powerful army trained in the Jingnan Campaign, both King Zhou and King Ning will reduce their guards. Stay away from me and go.

Xiao Xiaozhu is gone, so look for him. Zheng He was a good eunuch, capable of both literary and military skills. He made seven voyages to the West, and once searched for people on a deserted island. What if he found Xiao Zhu? The second is to promote our Ming Dynasty, and it is reasonable for Emperor Yongle to ascend the throne. After several years of hard work and vast mist, although Xiao Xiaozhu was not found, many countries came to pay tribute.

It was too hot in Nanjing, and the Mongolian cavalry was still harassing the north. Zhu Laosi led the army to go out in person, killing Bei Yuan and fleeing. Zhu Laosi’s dreams were all about Beijing with distinct four seasons, so he moved the capital to Beijing! This way the emperor can guard the country! This is a high-sounding reason. The more important point is that Zhu Laosi's throne was not obtained cleanly, and southerners privately looked down on him. Zhu Laosi was in Nanjing. From time to time, he dreamed of Lao Zhu scolding him, and his eldest brother, the talented and virtuous Zhu Biao, often sighed and looked at him. The longer he stayed on the throne, the less at ease he felt. Let's go back to our former feudal city, that's where we should live.

But Zhu Laosi wanted to save face and could not let go of Nanjing easily. He simply made Beijing the capital and Nanjing was still the capital. It wasn't until his great-grandson ascended the throne that he officially designated Beijing as the capital.

A man who is capable of literature and martial arts is a true hero. Zhu Lao moved the capital four times, and began to count all the scholars, and began to compile the "Yongle Dadian". Not only did he get rid of the notoriety of killing Fang Xiaoru, but he also achieved his eternal reputation!

Zhu Laosi was actually exhausted. Otherwise, according to his body, it would not be a problem to live for 180 years. The war between uncle and nephew, which sounds good is Jing Nan, but bad sounds means usurping the throne, has created his paranoia. He likes autocratic power too much and wishes that everything in the world could be done by himself. Zhu Laosi is very smart. I can take care of the big things and leave the small things to others. Establish a cabinet and improve the supervision system. They read the memorials every day. If they encounter problems, they should come to me to solve them.

Even so, the common problem of Lao Zhu's family is paranoia. What if these officials collude and fail to report to Mr. Zhu? Zhu Laosi thought for a long time and felt that his father's trick was still effective, restoring the Jinyiwei and the East Factory!

You don’t have to tell me, but if I find out, the consequences for you will be serious!

[Those things about Ren Xuan]

Zhu Laosi died, and his temple name was Taizong. But no one thought that a hundred years later, Emperor Yongle was almost invited out of the Ancestral Temple by a young emperor. It must be said that in the minds of future generations, that was all he was. But the Ming Dynasty was consolidated and developed in his hands.

Zhu Laosi's obese eldest son became emperor, as Emperor Hongxi. At the beginning, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, was the bravest, helping his father and his cousin fight for the world. Once Zhu Di was in danger. If Zhu Gaoxu hadn't desperately come to rescue him, the battle of Jingnan would have ended prematurely. Having experienced life and death, the gratitude felt precious even to a father and son. Zhu Laosi couldn't help but sigh. He couldn't imagine living in this world without some martial arts. After sighing, he patted his second son on the shoulder and said that Zhu Gaoxu looked like him. He also said that the prince had a lame leg and worked hard. The implication is that if you work hard, you might become more than just a vassal king in the future. Sometimes it is said that only the sons are the ones who cheat the father. In fact, the father is no different when it comes to cheating the sons.

Zhu Laosi's words may have been spoken out of emotion without careful consideration, but the King of Han took it seriously. His father was very good at martial arts and could compete with his cousin for the world. He could do the same. What's more, his father said it himself, the King of Han had Li Shimin. The feeling of possession. It's just that the ministers didn't do it. The prince is kind and has been the heir for twenty years. He is benevolent and stable. He is the hero of the world. I don't know how many people hope that he will take power as soon as possible. The King of Han was like his father, but what he resembled was his shortcoming - cruelty. The ministers said that they would not be able to get another cruel master in their lifetime. When the world is settled, what is needed is civil rule. Maybe it was because the ministers were surprisingly unanimous and firmly supported the prince, or maybe Zhu Laosi woke up in his later years. He did not establish the King of Han, and asked the King of Han to leave the capital immediately.

When Emperor Yongle returned to the west, Renzong ascended the throne. Although it only lasted ten months, the Renxuan rule of the Ming Dynasty began. Zhu Laosi is a famous tyrant, and his tyranny is even greater than that of his father. Behind the martial arts are thousands of corpses piled up. Be generous to support the people, calm down the troops and govern the country. Zheng He's mighty treasure ships no longer sailed, palace purchases were stopped, taxes were reduced or reduced, and physical punishment was abolished. A series of policies soon led to unprecedented social development in the Ming Dynasty and a strong national power.

The King of Han had always wanted to rebel and become emperor like his father. Not to mention that the opportunity did come up. Renzong only became emperor for ten months before leaving. At that time, the prince was in Nanjing to pay homage to his father, while the King of Han was near Beijing. He felt that this This is an opportunity to directly enter Beijing and proclaim himself emperor. As a result, when he saw the city tower of Beijing, he also saw the envoy of Emperor Xuanzong, and his nephew was proclaimed emperor! This is a historical mystery. No one knows how the prince learned the news of his father's death thousands of miles away, but managed to come back in time to proclaim himself emperor. Some people say that it was actually Jin Yiwei's spy who informed the prince of the situation in the capital in time.

The King of Han quit and finally rebelled. He thought it would be as successful as his father's Jingnan campaign, so he could only underestimate his nephew's strength. Before he could emerge from his fiefdom in Le'an, the emperor's army arrived at the city gate. , Surrender. Although you are my uncle, you have to surrender. Although you rebel, I will not kill you because you are my uncle. Xuanzong was very kind and gave King Han a chance to survive.

If he were an ordinary person, he would just go down the hill and enjoy his old life, but he happened to meet two stubborn uncles and nephews. When Xuanzong was a child, the relationship between uncle and nephew was harmonious, and his grandfather spoke nonsense, which caused a estrangement between his parents. Although his uncle rebelled, he surrendered after all, and so was his relatives. One day, Xuanzong went to visit his uncle who was imprisoned on a whim. He said that he was imprisoned, with no torture tools and no ill treatment, just house arrest. Xuanzong even gave up the etiquette of the emperor meeting his ministers, and instead performed family rituals with the King of Han. He walked around with his uncle and talked about old memories. However, the uncle was so excited that he stretched out his leg that he should not have stretched and tripped. Xuanzong, in front of a group of royal guards who were supporting him on both sides, the majestic Ming Emperor threw a dog to eat shit. Xuanzong was angry. You plotted to rebel. The ministers' memorials were like snowflakes. I rewarded you with property and hope that you would change your ways. You rebelled. I won’t kill you, but I also hope you will change your ways. The Zhu family has killed too many people! I treat you like an uncle, but you treat me like a child and roast him! The king of Han turned into a roasted whole sheep in the copper vat! And he was so cruel that he killed all his cousins!

Xuanzong was an accomplished emperor. Although he liked to fight crickets, he inherited Renzong's philosophy of governing the country, and Ming Dynasty's society was unprecedentedly prosperous. The policy of recuperation and recuperation with the people, the appointment of talents and advice, and the harmonious relationship between the monarch and his ministers. He is the Emperor of Peace, and the world has become peaceful because of him! He can spend his time fighting crickets and make good Xuande stoves, but society is still developing steadily!
