Chapter 62
【Next, we will take stock of the two criminals responsible for the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Taizong of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yongle, and Zhu Di. 】
Ming dynasty.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the subtitles on the light and shadow, he felt a roar in his head and his face was full of disbelief.
But when he reacted, he was furious and roared at Zhu Di who was also extremely surprised:
"Fourth child, you fucking still said you didn’t rebel?"
"Father, I...I...have no idea...ah!!"
Zhu Di was also frightened in his heart. He couldn't understand at all, what happened in the middle?
He was obviously just a King of Yan, how could he become the emperor? He really never thought about rebellion?!
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's face became more and more complex. It became more and more ugly, and the veins gradually popped out. Zhu Di emphasized again:
"I really don't know"
"I am loyal to my father and brother and have never had any objections. How could I become the emperor?"
"Father, this really has nothing to do with it!"
Zhu Di felt extremely unjust and cried out to Zhu Yuanzhang.
But Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't listen to anything now. There was only one thought in his mind, that Zhu Di was an unfilial son.
He coveted the throne, raised troops to rebel, and killed He killed his eldest brother and seized the throne.
The brothers fought against each other, killed each other, and plotted to usurp the throne. When these words were intertwined in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, an uncontrollable anger began to rise in Zhu Yuanzhang's chest.
"Now, you still dare to quibble"
"You are the second son, but you have won the big position. Is there any other way besides rebellion?"
"Fourth child, you have committed a heinous crime by rebelling against your elder brother. We will put you on death row now and you will be executed at another day!!"
"Someone is coming!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang is full of murderous intent. Although Zhu Di is also his favorite son, he is definitely not qualified for Zhu Biao. In addition, the country of Ming Dynasty is now involved. If Zhu Di really rebels, all the people in the world will be devastated. Zhu Yuanzhang will never allow this to happen
"Father, no!"
Seeing that Zhu Di 07 was about to be executed by Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao was the first to stand up and plead for Zhu Di.
"Until the matter is clarified, the fourth child will not be punished until death. Father, maybe many unknown things will happen in the future, which will make you decide to pass the throne to the fourth child. It is also unknown."
"If my father doesn't care about everything right now and kills the fourth child, he will regret it later."
As the Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province, Hu Weiyong should have stepped forward to dissuade him at this time, but he did not move at all. Instead, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and his son with a playful look.
Song Lian, the Minister of Rites, came out to echo Zhu Biao and said:
"Your Majesty, things in the future have not happened yet, how can we be convicted based on this?"
"King Yan has guarded the country's borders for several years, fought against the Northern Yuan Dynasty many times, and made great contributions to the court. I hope the emperor will think twice!"
"Think twice? This bastard is about to rebel, you want us to think twice?
Zhu Yuanzhang was furious,"How could we pass the throne to the fourth child?" Our prince is our successor"
"When we die, the prince will be the sun of the Ming Dynasty, and this will never change!!"
"What if His Royal Highness leaves first?"
A blind official whispered BB below, but even though the voice was small, Zhu Yuanzhang heard it clearly.
This sentence rang in his ears, but it did not wake him up, but made him even more angry.
"Li Zhiyuan, you dare to curse our prince to die early. What are your intentions?"
"Come on, pull this man down and chop him to pieces with a thousand swords!!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I made a mistake. Please forgive me, Your Majesty...."
Li Zhiyuan frantically begged for mercy, but in the end he was pulled down by the imperial guards.
Although what Li Zhiyuan said may happen, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, this is cursing his white-haired people to send black-haired people.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't believe that Zhu Biao would die young, and he didn't want to believe it either.
Since Zhu Biao will not die young, then Zhu Di is the traitor. Seeing the killing intent surrounding Zhu Yuanzhang, his eyes pierced Zhu Di, and he spoke again:
"Put King Yan in prison, and no one is allowed to plead for mercy, otherwise he will be with him..."
"Wait!!"
Just when Zhu Di was about to despair, a familiar voice suddenly interrupted Zhu Yuanzhang's order.
Hearing this familiar voice, a flash of relief suddenly flashed in Zhu Di's eyes. With this person present, his little one must have died. His life should be saved.
Sure enough, after seeing the person coming, Zhu Yuanzhang relaxed his brows slightly and said:
"Girl, why are you here? Didn’t we say not to disturb you during the morning court?"
The visitor is none other than Zhu Yuanzhang's married wife, Queen Ma, this strange woman who accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang all the way from Haozhou City.
"If I don't come again, my son will die soon!"
Empress Ma rolled her eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang and said resentfully:
"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you? As the old saying goes, tiger poison can't even eat its seeds, let alone the royal family."
"You are the emperor and we are the royal family. If even the royal family is killing father and son, what impact will it have on the people of the world?"
"What will the people think of us? How can the imperial court continue to use the word filial piety to educate the world?"
Empress Ma went to plead for Zhu Di from the perspective of family ties.
But Zhu Yuanzhang's face was still very ugly, and he pointed at Zhu Di and said:
"But this bastard actually dares to rebel. This is treason!!"
"rebel? When did the fourth child rebel? He guards the border for his country, eating wind and swallowing sand every day, just to protect the border of Ming Dynasty. Is there any sign of rebellion in him?"
Empress Ma argued hard and refused to give in.
Zhu Yuanzhang criticized the light and shadow in the sky and said:
"Sister, you see clearly, the fourth child has become the emperor, Ming Taizong, Yongle Emperor Zhu Di!!"
"It's clearly written on it. Isn't this evidence of his rebellion?"
"Those are things in the future. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous to use things in the future to judge people in the present?"
Queen Ma glanced at the shadow and continued:
"That light and shadow is just a possibility of the future. Now that the light and shadow are emerging, it is destined to change a lot in the future. If the fourth child does not rebel by then, if you kill people now, it will be unwarranted."
"Chongba, the future cannot be seen, the past is the criterion for judging a person."
"And even if the fourth child becomes the emperor, you don't have to execute him now. If he doesn't rebel and eventually becomes the emperor, wouldn't it be a huge injustice for you to execute him?"
"The inventory is still going on. Wouldn't it be better to wait until the ins and outs of the matter are understood before judging the fourth child?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent. Faced with Empress Ma's persuasion, he finally felt shaken. The fourth child was also his son. If it was not a last resort, he did not want to execute the fourth child. He just saw the moment when Zhu Di became emperor. , Zhu Yuanzhang was so shocked that he lost his mind. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"In this case, let's wait and see what happens. If the fourth child really dares to rebel, don't stop me."
Empress Ma was noncommittal, and several people looked at Guangying again.
Zhu Di prayed silently in his heart, only hoping that his future self would never rebel, otherwise he would suffer for his current self.
Da Qin[]
"Who is this Zhu Di? To be named the Great Emperor, he seems to be an incredible emperor."
When Ying Zheng saw Zhu Di's title, he immediately realized that this emperor was extraordinary.
"But if he was a powerful emperor, why was he still one of the sinners who destroyed his country?"
"Your Majesty, no gold is pure and no man is perfect."
Li Si came out and bowed his hands towards Ying Zheng and said:
"As long as you are human, you will have seven emotions and six desires, because it is always inevitable to make mistakes on impulse"
"That’s why the world must rely on the rule of law and rule the country by law. Law has no emotions and will gradually be improved. It is the foundation of the empire."
Ying Zheng did not answer, but said again:
"This Zhu Di is not Zhu Youjian's grandfather Zhu Yijun. Doesn't that mean that the Ming Dynasty has been passed down for at least five generations?"
Ying Zheng has always had a grudge against the death of the second generation of Qin Dynasty. Now that he sees that the Ming Dynasty has been passed down longer than the Qin Dynasty, he can't help but feel a little rippled in his heart.
Seeing this, Feng Quji stepped forward and said:
"Your Majesty, there must be a reason for the dynasties of later generations to be passed down for so long. We can take this opportunity to learn the systems of later generations from light and shadow and implement them in Da Qin, so as to improve Da Qin's laws."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Si retorted:
"No, the national conditions of the Qin Dynasty today are completely different from the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty in the future. If it is copied and used, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the world. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said:
"Take the essence and discard the dross. Our country in Qin needs reforms, so let’s start with learning from the Ming Dynasty!"
Da Ming Dynasty, Yongle period
"Am I actually the sinner of the country’s subjugation? ?"
Zhu Di's eyes widened. He didn't expect that he worked so hard to govern. He didn't even have a good night's sleep since he came to the throne. In the end, he was still judged as a sinner of the country's subjugation. This made Zhu Di feel aggrieved.
"I raised an army to rebel, but that little bastard Jianwen forced me to do it. If he hadn't given us a way to survive, would I have raised an army to rebel?"
"The world only knows that I steal the country and engage in military warfare, but they don’t know that I sleep on the ice and sleep on the battlefield!!"
"For decades, I have never had a good day. I work hard and sleep hard every night."
"Could it be that my life’s achievements cannot clear my name?"
Zhu Di's face turned red and he was so angry that he babbled nonsense and even called me
"me". But in his heart, it was more fear than anger.
He was afraid that his rebellion would be punished by Zhu Yuanzhang. Seeing this, he was afraid that his descendants would be like him, killing each other and having their hands stained with the blood of his relatives. He was afraid that everyone in the world would come to poke the backbone of his old Zhu family.
"Dad, your achievements have long surpassed those of my grandfather. What are you afraid of?"
Zhu Gaoxu saw Zhu Di so excited and immediately said:
"This Tiandao inventory can only talk about your rebellion at most, but can you blame us for this kind of thing?"
"Our family rebelled, but it was also Jianwen's fault. Even if you see my grandfather underground in the future, you can confidently ask my grandfather to judge."
Zhu Gaochi's mind was racing, his little eyes turned twice, as if he had thought of something, and he said to Zhu Di:
"Father, I think Heaven will tell you about your aggressive military activities. I also ask your father to use your troops sparingly and cherish the power of the people."
Zhu Di took a deep breath, calmed down a bit, ignored his two sons, and just said lightly:
"Right and wrong will be judged by future generations. I just need to have a clear conscience."
After saying that, Zhu Di looked at the light and shadow by himself, while the two brothers Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaochi looked at each other in silence.
【Yongle Emperor Zhu Di was the fourth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.】
【He was born during the war. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was still the King of Wu and was surrounded by enemies on all sides. Zhu Yuanzhang did not even have time to name his son.】
【It was not until Zhu Di was four years old that Zhu Yuanzhang defeated his biggest opponent and named Zhu Di】
【Because of this, Zhu Di was brought up by his eldest brother Zhu Biao since he was a child, and the relationship between the two is also very good.】
【Zhu Di has been naughty and disobedient since childhood, but he obeyed Zhu Biao's words.】
【When Zhu Yuanzhang founded the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Biao was named Prince, while Zhu Di was named King of Yan, and their fiefdom was in Peiping.】
【Peiping is an important border town in the north, only about a hundred miles away from the customs. Zhu Yuanzhang named Zhu Di the King of Yan. His original intention was to hope that Zhu Di could guard the border on his behalf in the north and resist the intrusion of northern nomads.】
【Zhu Di was a genius and had a talent for marching and fighting.】
【Due to its proximity to the north, Zhu Di was able to follow many famous generals on the Northern Expedition, including the legendary commander Xu Da of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the founding fathers Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, Tang He, Lan Yu and others. This greatly strengthened Zhu Di's military ability】
【After the famous generals of the Ming Dynasty withered one after another, Zhu Di became the pillar of the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty. He went out to resist the Mongol invasion many times. He had outstanding military exploits and became a decisive vassal king who was relied upon by Zhu Yuanzhang.】
【If everything develops like this, Zhu Di will become a world-famous King of Zhenbei in the Ming Dynasty in the future, and will also be his eldest brother's most powerful helper in the future.】
【But accidents always come quietly. On April 25, the 25th year of Hongwu, the heir whom Zhu Yuanzhang had high hopes and devotedly cultivated, Zhu Di's good eldest brother, Prince Zhu Biaoyu Yingtian died of illness.】
【Zhu Yuanzhang's white-haired man gave away his black-haired man, the throne of the prince was vacant, and the government and the opposition were in turmoil! 】
Ming dynasty.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the content on the subtitles, his steps were unsteady and he actually took several steps back. He asked in disbelief:
"What? Our Biao'er actually died young in his prime?"...Dividing line...
