Chapter 396 is actually the history of the feudal nobility
Only the descendants of the prince's lineage will be long-lived emperors in the future.

Those descendants of yours can't do it.

So even if it is said to break the sky, we can't let the descendants of your line take charge of the Daming country.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, since there is no problem with our old Zhu's genes, then there is something wrong with his mother.Di'er's mother-in-law Concubine Yu was from Korea, and she was in poor health. She must have passed the disease on to Di'er.

After Ming Chengzu later became emperor, he insisted that he was the son of Empress Ma.

Even back then a lot of people thought that was the case.

Because Concubine Yu gave birth to Zhu Di, she was suspected of having an affair with others and was secretly executed by Zhu Yuanzhang. Because this matter humiliated the royal face, the palace records concealed his real biological mother.

Then it was said that it was born by Queen Ma and brought up by Queen Ma.

Even "Taichang Temple Chronicles" recorded in this way, so even Zhu Di himself and the officials at that time thought he was born of Empress Ma.In other words, Zhu Di still doesn't know who his biological mother is.

This matter is an absolute secret.

However, only Lao Zhu himself is clear about it.

Hearing that he had a hereditary disease, Zhu Di's expression turned ugly.He thought bitterly in his heart: the big deal is that in the future, this king should not marry a wife and have children, so as not to make future generations suffer.

"Student Huang Le, your complexion is a little bad. Are you sick? Why don't you ask Lingshu to help you take a look." Seeing this, Qin Yu asked with concern.

"It's okay, sir." Zhu Di said.

"Of course, the later emperors of the Ming Dynasty were short-lived, and it is not ruled out that some treacherous officials secretly played tricks." Qin Yu continued, "For example, explain the famous Hongwan case at the end. case, a man directly broke into the Ciqing Palace where the prince Zhu Changluo lived, and beat the prince, and later the man was caught and the man went crazy."

"Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that this is some powerful ministers playing tricks. Without their secret manipulation, it would be impossible for outsiders to break into the palace. What's more, the murderer went crazy later, and there is no evidence to prove it."

"Those powerful officials, do they have that much energy?" Zhu Yuanzhang's expression froze, "It's like playing with the royal family in the palm of your hand."

"In the later period of the dynasty, the feudal nobles really had such great energy." Qin Yu said, "When they united, even the emperor was at their mercy. For example, during the period of the second emperor of Ming Dynasty, Emperor Jianwen, Fang Xiaoru was the one who controlled the government. Huang Zicheng and other civil servant groups. They were the ones who instigated Emperor Jianwen to cut down the vassals, and Emperor Jianwen himself still had affection for his own uncle."

"Also, if Huang Zicheng hadn't been stupid later and sent all the sons of the King of Yan back to Yandi, Zhu Di would still be afraid to calm down."

"Damn civil servant!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"So basically when the feudal dynasty reached the second emperor's period, the imperial power had been weakened to the point of disrepair." Qin Yu said, "Let's say in the Wanli period, Zhang Juzheng, who represented the cabinet, controlled the government for decades."

"Wanli must report to Zhang Juzheng for everything he does, and he will be reprimanded if he makes a slight mistake. The Empress Dowager also supports Zhang Juzheng very much and insists on making Wanli a good baby in front of him."

"Let him respect Zhang Juzheng more than his own father."

"This is intolerable for an emperor, so when Zhang Juzheng died, he liquidated Zhang Juzheng. To a certain extent, Zhang Juzheng was like Aobai and Huo Guang."

"These things fully demonstrate that the feudal dynasties in ancient China were not the real family of the royal family, but the world of the feudal aristocrats. The royal family is just their puppet, the spokesperson of their interests."

"If an emperor doesn't represent their interests, they can even replace the emperor."

"And those feudal aristocrats happened to oppress the people of the world. That's why the prosperity of the people is suffering, and the death of the people is suffering. That's why they urge the emperor to implement the most severe control of the people."

"Because the feudal nobles are the actual power holders."

"Mr. Qin's analysis is too thorough!" Zhu Yuanzhang said, "For the dynasty, if the supremacy of imperial power is truly realized instead of feudal nobles in power, the life of the people will be better."

"That's for sure." Qin Yu said, "The founding emperors of the past dynasties basically achieved the real power of the emperor, and the imperial power is the most stable."

"So during that period, people's lives were relatively easier."

"It's a pity that the feudal dynasties of all dynasties later became the spokesperson for the interests of the feudal aristocracy and had to rely on them. As a result, the dynasty became a powerful tool for the feudal aristocracy to oppress the people."

"Later, the dynasty was ruined, and they took refuge in the new court."

"Looking at the history of China for thousands of years, it seems to be the history of the rule of several royal families, but it is actually the history of feudal aristocracy. It is the history of feudal aristocracy oppressing the people. The Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties are just superficial phenomena."

"Confucian concepts such as monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons are all tools they use to fool the general public."

"That's why the dynasties of all dynasties have regarded the people as the biggest enemy of the dynasty. They have to constantly target the people and try to make the people stupid. Because those feudal nobles who are in power are the direct oppressors of the people."

"For thousands of years, the feudal aristocrats have been the real rulers of this land and the real cancer."

"When the common people are enlightened, the first thing to oppose is the feudal aristocracy who oppresses them, not the emperor."

……

"So for the feudal dynasty, preventing the feudal aristocracy from growing is the top priority." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "To prevent the feudal aristocracy from growing, the founding emperor has the best chance, because they have the greatest power."

"That's right! You're very smart, you figured it out so quickly." Qin Yu said.

"It's a pity that none of the founding emperors saw this key."

"Not only can't see this, but they are still cultivating new feudal nobles."

"After they established the dynasty, they would immediately entrust ministers, reward the founding fathers, and distribute land, titles, and tenants to them. A new batch of feudal nobles came out, which became the bane and cancer of the dynasty later."

"So the change of dynasties in the past is nothing more than a new batch of feudal nobles replacing the old batch of feudal nobles."

"When the founding emperor died, those feudal nobles began to show their power. They controlled the government, exploited the common people, and harmed the court."

Qin Yu said: "I'm not opposed to rewarding those founding fathers. After all, they have made great contributions to the establishment of the dynasty, and they have worked for the emperor through life and death. They should be rewarded."

"It's just that their power must be limited in a cage."
