Emperors chat group

The arena of the heavens.

The Tang Dynasty.

Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen raised his wine glass, poured it in front of him, and sighed:
"This cup of wine is for my defeated general, Wanyan Gou."

"This cup of wine is for my defeated and useless ancestor, Emperor Taizong of Song, Zhao Guangyi."

"This glass of wine..."

As time passed, after one jar of fine wine was spilled, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen casually exchanged it for ten more jars of fine wine.

There was no way. The underground tunnels that originated from the same source as the Heavenly Dao had all been destroyed. Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty really didn't think that they had any chance of winning.

……

Tang Dynasty.

In front of Ganlu Temple.

The heroic and vigorous Prince Li Chengqian of the Tang Dynasty sat on the steps, looking into the night sky, and asked:

"Zhi Nu, when do you think my father and his men will be able to return?"

"I just saw my mother sitting in the bedroom, hugging my father's armor... crying."

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, looked at the elder brother who was only a few years older than his son and said:
"Your Highness, rest assured. The methods used by our father are beyond the imagination of you and me."

"It's just an illusion, how can it be a match for Father?"

Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, recalled his father's great achievements and said:

"That's right. That's our father. How could he lose? How could he lose?"

"Oh, by the way, I just remembered that your temple name is quite interesting. Emperor Gaozong, when I heard this temple name, guess who was the first person you thought of?"

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, smiled bitterly and said:

"Brother, I didn't know that in the future there would be a Song Gaozong Wanyan Gou who ceded land to seek peace, cut off his own hands and feet, and even spared his own son."

"But I am not the worst. The worst should be Emperor Taizong of Ming."

"Think of Zhu Laosi, who worked diligently all his life and never dared to slack off. He led many northern expeditions and compiled the Yongle Canon."

"It was all for the temple title of Taizong, and to wash away his own eternal infamy, but the result was... Hahahaha, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, hahahaha..."

Thinking of the colorful expression on Emperor Taizong's face every time he heard the temple name of Emperor Chengzu, Emperor Gaozong of Tang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The Tang prince Li Chengqian also smiled brightly, looked at his younger brother, and said:

"Zhi Nu, the one who is more unlucky than Emperor Taizong of Ming should be his son, Emperor Renzong of Ming, Zhu Gaochi, right?"

"Hahahaha...it was actually moved out by Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty."

"I also discovered that the uncles and nephews in the Ming Dynasty seemed to be sworn enemies!"

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, counted carefully on his fingers.

"Your Highness, it seems to be true."

"In the front there was Zhu Wenzheng and Zhu Chongba, and in the back there was Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Di, and also the uncle and nephew Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Zhanji."

Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, said with a smile:

"I think the most interesting pair is Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Zhanji, the uncle and nephew."

"According to historical records, Zhu Gaoxu was favored by Zhu Lao Si because this second son had saved his life during the Jingnan Campaign and was also the son who was most like him."

"Well, if I were in his place, and were to switch places with Zhu Laosi, I would never choose Ming Renzong as the crown prince."

When reading "History of Ming Dynasty", Li Chengqian discovered that Zhu Laosi was a man with too little courage.

Is he really so naive as to think that by enthroning the eldest son as the heir, the Ming Dynasty can be passed on safely?

The eldest son, who needs several eunuchs to support him when walking and is also lustful by nature, is not the most suitable candidate even though he has been regent for many years and has great skills.

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, was thinking of something, and said with a serious expression:

"Your Highness, you can't say that. It's easy to judge what he did after he came, but it's hard to do what he did in his position."

"After all, Zhu Laosi would never have thought that Ming Renzong died after only ten months in office, and that [Good Saint Grandson] Zhu Zhanji died ten years later." Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, lay on the ground, looking at the night sky, and retorted:

"That's because Zhu Laosi is too timid. He only cares about his reputation and has no regard for the rest of the world or the Ming Dynasty."

"Prince of Han Zhu Gaoxu has made many military achievements. So what if he becomes a military emperor? At the very least, if he succeeds to the throne, the Ming Dynasty will never experience the defeat at Tumu Fortress."

"As an emperor, you should plan for eternity!"

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, turned his head with a complicated expression, looked at his young-looking elder brother, and said:

"Brother, you don't understand. The name is not right, the words are not smooth. These six words are too heavy. Even if you are Zhu Laosi, you can't do whatever you want."

"Besides, when Zhu Laosi was on the Northern Expedition, Zhu Gaochi was the regent. Some people joked that the so-called Yongle Emperor was just Ming Renzong's Northern Expedition General."

"Almost all civil and military officials in the court are Zhu Gaochi's followers. If Zhu Laosi dares to pass the throne to Zhu Gaoxu, the civil and military officials will be the first to disagree."

The Tang prince Li Chengqian turned around, facing away from Emperor Gaozong, and said:

"Chi Nu, maybe the emperor couldn't do whatever he wanted before, but can't the emperor today do whatever he wants?"

"Anyway, I think that as long as the person on the throne cares about the people, that's enough."

"What's the difference between the eldest son and the third son? They are all the same."

"I'm a little sleepy, so I'll rest here for a while. You can go back now."

When Emperor Gaozong of Tang Li Zhi saw this scene, his expression became even more complicated. He stood up silently and said:

"Brother, I'll go back home first."

Subsequently.

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, stood up and left. After walking a few hundred meters, he turned around silently.

Looking at the elder brother who was lying outside the Ganlu Palace without any scruples, using the sky as his blanket and the ground as his bed, he sighed.

"Brother, if your name is not right and your words are not smooth, sometimes it is really like a ravine that is difficult to cross."

"The position of the future ruler of the Tang Dynasty is yours, not mine..."

Just like, Emperor Taizong Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty and Prince of Yan would feel extremely embarrassed whenever they met each other.

Even many officials would confuse the two.

In the Tang Dynasty, his situation as the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty was more embarrassing than that of Prince of Yan Zhu Di and his grandfather who was obsessed with beauty.

Because, strictly speaking, Wu Zhou replaced the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty was destroyed in her hands.

Moreover, his father's eldest son, his elder brother, the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian, is still alive, so his situation is even more worrying.

He understood the deep meaning of what his elder brother said just now. What he wanted to say was that he had never blamed him, and even... recognized him, and perhaps had the idea of ​​giving him the position of the leader of the Tang Dynasty.

However, Emperor Gaozong of Tang did not dare to think about it too much, let alone agree to it.

The name is not right, the words are not smooth...
