Li Zhongfu gave Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao a pack of spicy strips, just like giving cigarettes to friends: "How did the emperors after the Ming Dynasty do? Someone must want to hear this question."
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately guessed that it was the person behind Doctor Li who wanted to hear it: "A new patient came to the clinic? Who is this?"
Zhu Di was so scared that he trembled all over and his face turned pale.
Li Zhongfu didn't rush to answer Zhu Yuanzhang's question: "As for why Ming Sizong Zhu Youjian is the descendant of Yan Wang Zhu Di, I think this question is more convincing if it is answered by the person involved."
"Are you right? Emperor Wen of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yongle, Yan Wang, General Zhengbei." Li Zhongfu asked with a smile, gently bumping Zhu Di's back with his arm.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were both stunned.
Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty?
Emperor Wen Zhu Di?
Good fellow, as powerful as Li Shimin is, he is only Emperor Taizong Wen!
What virtue and ability do you have to dare to call yourself an ancestor?
Zhu Di turned around with difficulty and said with a wry smile: "Dad, big brother, long time no see."
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were a little dazed for a moment, thinking that the person in front of them looked like the fourth brother, but not like the fourth brother.
Similar in appearance.
Different in temperament.
After thinking for a while, the two realized that the fourth brother in front of them came from several decades after the eleventh year of Hongwu.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, and his smile was very sinister: "Emperor Chengzu of Ming? I understand. It turns out that you snatched the throne of the Ming Dynasty with your own hands.
Very good, you tell me, why would I pass the throne to you.
You, the Emperor Wen, killed your brother and imprisoned your father, and forced a confession to usurp the throne like Emperor Wen of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin?"
Zhu Di waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, how dare I, your son, do this? Yes... yes... yes..."
"What is it? Tell me!"
"In the 25th year of Hongwu, my eldest brother Zhu Biao died of illness, and in the 15th year of Hongwu, the grandson Zhu Xiongying also died of illness. In the 31st year of Hongwu, my father passed away and passed the throne to..."
"Who did you pass the throne to? Tell me quickly!" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with bloodshot eyes.
Zhu Biao had a question mark on his forehead.
I died young?
And Xiongying died directly?
Zhu Di could no longer bear the pressure from his father, and knelt on the ground with a plop: "I will pass the throne to my eldest brother's second son Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen then deprived several princes of their thrones and forced his twelfth brother Zhu Bo to death. Although I showed weakness in every way, he still refused to give in and wanted to kill me.
I was forced to raise an army to quell the rebellion, and became the emperor of the Ming Dynasty with the support of officials and princes."
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were stunned again.
Zhu Yunwen actually became the emperor?
This is really unbelievable!
"How many years has Zhu Yunwen been the emperor?" Zhu Yuanzhang took two steps forward and asked again.
"Only four years at most." Zhu Di bowed his head even lower.
"Four years? Four years, just four years, and a good country was lost, and so many of our sons were harmed. This Zhu Yunwen is really a good man." Zhu Yuanzhang said, and suddenly kicked Zhu Di.
With a 'bang', Zhu Di was kicked over and twitched in pain.
Although Li Zhongfu wanted to see Zhu Di in a rage, he also knew that he would not be able to escape the beating sooner or later, but Zhu Di was a patient after all.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang pull out his belt, he was about to beat Zhu Di violently.
Li Zhongfu quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty, calm down. Your fourth son almost died when he came here two days ago. He finally recovered a little. If you beat him again, you will have to send him to his death."
Although Zhu Yuanzhang loved Zhu Biao the most, he also had feelings for his other sons. He snorted: "For the sake of Doctor Li, I will remember this beating for you. When you recover, I will settle the score with you."
Zhu Di kowtowed: "Thank you, father, for sparing my life."
Zhu Biao stepped forward , advised: "Forget it, father, Yunwen has forced my fourth brother to this point, what else can he do if he doesn't rebel?
After all, the Ming Dynasty has been passed down in the hands of his descendants for more than 200 years. It is better than the country being taken by outsiders and perishing in two generations."
Zhu Di was grateful and said: "Brother, I..."
Zhu Biao helped Zhu Di up: "Don't say it, fourth brother, when did we brothers become so estranged?"
"I... I'm sorry for you." Zhu Di lowered his head in shame.
Li Zhongfu rolled his eyes and guessed that Zhu Di was not ashamed of robbing Zhu Yunwen of the throne, but was ashamed of killing all of Zhu Biao's descendants, which directly made his eldest brother's lineage extinct.
"There's no need to talk about the past. Hmm... This is a weird thing to say. After all, in my time and space, Yunwen is only a little over one year old now." Zhu Biao thought for a while: "Brother, let me ask you, apart from reducing the number of vassal states, how has Yunwen done in other aspects?"
Zhu Di shook his head: "The vassal states are too powerful to be eliminated and endanger the court. It is not wrong to reduce the number of vassal states. After I succeeded to the throne, I also used variousHe used various methods to reduce the power of the vassal states, but he tried to do it in a peaceful way, and no vassal king dared to be too dissatisfied.
If his methods were good enough, it would not be impossible for his brothers to be happy princes who would eat and wait for death.
The key is that he was a mess in reducing the power of the vassal states, and he did not do well in other aspects. Take the government offices and official names for example. He listened to the corrupt scholars such as Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, and Huang Zicheng, and changed many government offices and official names to ancient names, which made officials at a loss and the entire officialdom was in great chaos.
He also abolished many decrees from his father's time, and was determined to restore the past, and even intended to implement the well-field system, as if he could not reflect his rich knowledge without doing so. The people complained. "
Zhu Biao: ...
Is this child really my own?
Why is he so stupid?
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that his head was about to smoke: "Good Zhu Yunwen, has your head been stupid because of reading?
He actually listened to the words of those civil officials with all his heart. Who does he think he is? Prime Minister or saint? How can such a person be an emperor! "
Without any hesitation, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered: "Biao'er, after we go back, we will order your concubine to go back to Fengyang with Zhu Yunwen to guard the ancestral tomb, and never return to Beijing."
Zhu Biao smiled bitterly: "Father, Yunwen is only a one-year-old child. How can you blame him for the mistakes he made in the future?"
Thinking of his elder brother's protection of himself just now, Zhu Di also advised against it: "Yes, father, as long as you can protect Xiongying well and let him succeed to the throne smoothly in the future, Zhu Yunwen will not be able to make any waves, and there is no need to blame him.
He is actually... just not suitable to be an emperor, and he is still a good child.
When the son minister was in Fengtian Jingnan, he even ordered the front-line officers and soldiers not to kill the son minister, which made the front-line officers and soldiers restrained and let the son minister take a big advantage. "
Zhu Biao: ...
It is confirmed that Zhu Yunwen did not inherit any of my good qualities.
They have already started fighting, but you are showing mercy.
If you had done this earlier, the fourth brother might not have rebelled.
Zhu Yuanzhang was even more speechless.
Because he thought of a problem.
Since Zhu Yunwen is not suitable to be the emperor, then I am the biggest culprit for pushing him to the throne.
I am so tired.
Why are the mistakes made by our descendants all caused by us?
