Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 458 The emperor’s corpse will forever rule the mountains and rivers, Chenghua is coming

Zhu Qiyu didn't care about being burned by fire, but Zhu Jianji did.

He didn't care about dismembering the body with five horses, Zhu Jianji was afraid of being scolded.

But Zhu Qiyu left a difficult problem for him.

Conspiracy theorists will definitely say that Zhu Jianji hated his father's will, so he was given the temple title of Shizu.

There was a huge quarrel between the DPRK and the Central Government.

The feudal lords also joined in the fun and agreed that their father's body should not be destroyed.

Maybe they don't know that his father was afraid of tomb robbery. The Ming Tombs were right there in plain sight, and sooner or later someone would dig out the bodies and put them on display.

It's better to be burned now than to be a monkey in the future.

This is called foresight.

Those who do not plan for the overall situation cannot plan for one area.

It's a pity that his descendants are too stupid and have to let him be an exhibit in the window. He doesn't want to be a mummy. Those pharaohs are now on display in the Ming Dynasty. It's not pleasant to be pointed at by those tourists.

The fight lasted for a month and a half.

The emperor's coffin rests in the White Tiger Palace. It's not an option to keep it there forever, as it will be broken if the corpse transforms.

Zhu Jianji hinted that Wang Shu had made a decision. Wang Shu had already pretended to be dead at home. He was too sad because the old emperor died of illness, and Wang Shu no longer went to court.

Asking Yu Zijun to make the decision, Yu Zijun also ran away.

Anyway, whoever Zhu Jianji sees now will take sick leave.

No one dares to take this shot.

The key is that if the old emperor is not buried, he, Zhu Jianji, will not be able to ascend the throne. His three days of mourning have already passed. According to the procedures, it is time to prepare for the enthronement ceremony.

But the old emperor cannot be buried. Should he wait until next year?

The corpse doesn't stink.

The key issue is that the government cannot afford to delay it. Opinions from the people are flooding the government and the public, and he must suppress it.

Finally, on the first day of September in the 70th year of Jingtai, Zhu Jianji decided to cremate him!
Zhu Qiyu's body was burned and divided into six parts.

They were buried separately in the northern Yuerhai Province, next to Baikal Mountain.

To the south, buried in Kuala Lumpur, Malacca Province, by the sea.

To the west, he is buried in Andiyan, Tianshan Province.

To the east, they are buried in Kamchatka Peninsula, the southernmost point.

Southwest, buried in Bengal Province, the mouth of the Ganges River.

A small part was left and buried in the Ming Tomb of the Capital.

There were huge crowds of people on the way to the funeral of each ashes. The local people spontaneously buried the old emperor, and mourning was everywhere.

The old emperor wants to use his ashes to guard the Ming Dynasty.

Mausoleums were built in the five places. The mausoleums were not large in scale. They were built in the 69th year of Jingtai and took only sixteen days to complete.

There are no burial objects, just a simple urn, put it in, erect a monument, and set up a temple outside.

A total of six temples were built, one for each religion.

There is also a memorial hall that displays the old emperor’s belongings and manuscripts during his lifetime.

The burial process was witnessed by the people all over the world, and it was marked on the stone tablet that no burial objects were allowed.

It's like telling the tomb robbers not to worry, there's nothing inside.

The regulations on tombstones are not high, and there are no restrictions on people's access, allowing anyone to worship.

On the second day after the old emperor was buried, the entire mausoleum was filled with sacrifices. A few days later, several streets were filled with sacrifices.

Moreover, people cry outside the mausoleum every day.

The court could only issue a decree allowing sacrifices to the old emperor, but prohibiting the burning of sacrifices.

This imperial decree has been scolded by the people. You are not filial to your father, but we are filial to His Majesty. Why do you still care?
Zhu Jianji succeeded to the throne on the seventh day of September.

He became the eighth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his reign name was Chenghua. In the 71st year of Jingtai, the reign name was changed to Chenghua and became the Chenghua Dynasty.

He is also worried now, and the people are scolding him for being unfilial.

No matter how I explain it, these mobs won’t listen.

Okay, just scold me, it doesn't matter if I'm thick-skinned.

But you are not allowed to offer sacrifices, because every sacrifice will cause a fire and burn those who cry outside.

The key point is that the more the court took control, the more people burned, and more and more people came outside to cry. Those who were not afraid of death were crying there, as if their own father had died.

Some people went to the mausoleum to commit suicide, saying that they wanted to bury the old emperor.

After repeated orders from the DPRK, the old emperor issued an imperial decree before his death, canceling the burial system and prohibiting burials.

The more the imperial court decreed, the more people took the initiative to go to the funeral.

Zhu Jianjian would be scolded whenever he took charge.

His father's influence among the people was too great, and in Jingtai's seventy years, three generations had died, which was really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Look at the recording his father left behind. He was all talking to the people. It would be strange if the people don't love him to death.

The most interesting thing is that at Zhu Qiyu’s mausoleum, some people spontaneously formed a tomb guard team and were willing to guard his tomb.

The tombs of all dynasties have been specially assigned to guard the tombs. Emperors Genghis Khan and Taizu all had tomb guard troops.

Only Zhu Qiyu did not.

Because Zhu Qiyu's strict decree did not allow anyone to guard his tomb, there was only a handful of ashes in his tomb and nothing else. Where could the tomb robbers come from?
If you have so many good things buried inside, don't you just attract tomb robbers? Tell the tomb robbers, come and rob me!

Zhu Qiyu's ashes were buried in full public view. From burning to transporting and burial, everything was done in full view of the public.

Zhu Jianjian had previously thought about switching the package and replacing the old emperor's with someone else's ashes.

But he was rejected by the courtiers. If you do something, you must do it, and you must be upright. This is the thought left by the old emperor.

Zhu Qiyu's tomb has no tombkeeper and is open to the public.

Except for the tomb, all other places are open to the public free of charge. He wants to turn himself into an attraction.

Let everyone in the world know that I, Zhu Qiyu, am buried here.

No one can steal it.

Even if the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, the rulers of subsequent dynasties will be too embarrassed to steal it. An emperor who smashed himself to pieces, are you too embarrassed to dig out his ashes and raise them?
Even if the Ming Dynasty was invaded, the invaders would have to kneel down and kowtow three times.

Zhu Qiyu finally studied his posthumous name thoroughly.

Now, various places have spontaneously formed tomb guards to guard the tomb of Emperor Zuwu of the Ming Dynasty.

The facts are just as Zhu Qiyu expected. His burial place has really become an important local attraction and the most popular attraction in the country.

If people all over the world want to pay homage to the old emperor's remains, they can just go to the cemetery to pay homage.

It is overcrowded every day, with huge crowds of people.

Of the six cemeteries, five are open to the public. The ones in the capital are not open to the public. If they are opened, it would be equivalent to opening the royal cemeteries.

Zhu Jianjian has been subjected to endless abuse since the death of the old emperor.

The next year is the first year of Chenghua.

Zhu Jianji issued the first imperial edict. After my death, I, Zhu Jianji, will be shattered into pieces and buried on the border like the old emperor. I will protect the border forever!

I, the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, will always defend the Ming Dynasty!

This rhetoric barely alleviated the public criticism.

After Zhu Jianjian ascended the throne, he felt empty. He did not live in the Yangxin Hall, as if his father was everywhere there. He always felt uncomfortable living there.

Since the death of the old emperor, he has never been there once.

He moved to Qianqing Palace, but the place he lived in was not comfortable. When he was not dealing with government affairs, he would always wander to the entrance of Yangxin Palace, and then come back feeling lost.

To be honest, when his father was alive, he didn't have much feelings, and he even hoped that the old man would die soon every day.

But when the old man really left, he felt uneasy.

As the old man said, the burden of Ming Dynasty falls entirely on you.

Even though he is sixty-three years old, he does not feel relaxed at all.

Some emperors who ascended the throne at a young age were ambitious because they did not know what responsibility was and what the price would be if they did something wrong.

Ignorance is precisely the greatest reliance.

Like Zhu Jianji, he is no longer young and ignorant. Under his father's deliberate training, he has evolved into Lao Yincoin.

Therefore, he began to look forward and backward when doing things, and thought deeply.

Only five months after the old man left, he felt that he could not hold on any longer. To govern a vast empire, he had to compete wits and courage with the ministers in the court, while also guarding against the vassal states.

The feudal state was already in chaos.

The first to start the fight was Europe.

Sparks of war have also emerged in Africa. On the contrary, the Americas are quiet, but the footsteps of war are very close at hand.

Zhu Qiyu said that there may be several large-scale wars in the world in the future, which may become a catastrophe for mankind, and Ming Dynasty will not be able to survive alone.

He predicted that World War I would occur in the future world in about fifteen years.

Reasons: 1. Countries will gear up first, using neighboring countries as a touchstone to hone their military strength; 2. The economy will continue to decline, and the bottleneck of the industrial revolution is the financial crisis, which is inevitable; 3. When the powerful plunder and harvest assets, , the financial crisis will expand indefinitely.

4. The willingness of the people at the bottom to reshuffle. When the upper and lower channels are closed, a very small number of particularly accomplished people at the bottom want to cross the class and urgently need to fight a war.

5. The ambitions of the powerful. Those who divide the cake will never divide the cake perfectly. There must be more and less. The person who eats less will be dissatisfied, and they will become the promoters of world war.

War will definitely break out.

The reason why we say fifteen years later is because the second industrial revolution will bring many job opportunities to the market, ease social conflicts, and delay the arrival of the financial crisis.

And I am not the only one to see this.

All knowledgeable people in the world will see it.

Moreover, countries need time to prepare for war. The preparation time is about ten years before World War I breaks out. This war may be the largest war in human history.

In the 69th year of Jingtai, Zhu Jianjian talked with some close ministers. They were all not optimistic about the future and believed that the war was approaching.

Their views are different from those of the old emperor.

They believe that world wars are always wars between the powerful and the powerful.

In the final analysis, it was the old emperor's efforts to check and balance each other during the enfeoffment that led to serious uneven distribution. The old emperor's vassal protection system was also the inevitable trigger for this war.

This is a power war.

As for the impact on the financial sector and people's livelihood.

Confidants speculated that careerists may be pushing the people to deliberately cause unrest among the people, and then carry out mass recruitment.

From the beginning of the enfeoffment, it meant that a large-scale war would break out in the future.

It can be seen from the old emperor's world structure diagram that his idea of ​​​​containment is for Ming to dominate forever.

There are no fools in the feudal clan. When the old emperor was alive, the Jingtai clan system could still be maintained. After the old emperor died, the Jingtai clan system collapsed immediately.

Moreover, the idea of ​​​​great unity is deeply rooted in the hearts of the Chinese people.

Oceania, North America, South America, Africa, West Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, Eastern Europe, and Western Europe must move from division to unity.

The situation in the world in the future must be so strong that there will be no weak countries.

Jingtai Zongfan, from the beginning, was designed to allow the vassal states to fight wars, with the Ming Dynasty mediating, so a world war would definitely occur.

but!

There was an accident here.

The eldest brother Zhu Jianqi was deposed, and the fourth brother Zhu Jianji ascended the throne.

In two points:
First, the issue of identity.

Zhu Jianqi was the eldest son, so it was understandable that he was also the eldest brother of all his brothers. No matter what his character was, after he succeeded to the throne, the Jingtai vassal system could still be maintained.

If Zhu Jianji ascends the throne, he will definitely not be able to maintain it.

Because Zhu Jianji has three brothers above him. Why should people listen to your brother? Why!
Second, there is the issue of character.

Zhu Jianqi is the Lord of Shou Cheng. He has no ambition to annex the world, nor the ability.

Zhu Jianjian was different. He was an emperor on horseback. He was ambitious and capable. His ambition to annex the world can be seen from the fact that he turned the Hindu Kush Mountains into Guixu Province.

Therefore, when the Jingtai vassal system was originally formulated, it was tailor-made for Zhu Jianqi.

But something happened later.

Zhu Jianji ascended the throne.

This sect-vassal system will inevitably collapse in the hands of Zhu Jianji.

Because Zhu Jianji himself is a very pioneering person.

Don't look at the old emperor who suppressed him when he was alive.

Now that the old emperor is dead, no one can suppress him.

If the courtiers are careful, they will also find that Zhu Youyi is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Then the problem is big.

The emperors of vassal states are not fools. They regard the current world as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The kings of various countries can be said to be virtuous masters, and all of them have ambitions.

Moreover, there were no restrictions during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, systems were being explored, but now the world has sound systems and is even more bloody and brutal.

They knew Zhu Jianzhen better than the court officials of the Ming Dynasty. After all, everyone in the world knew what Zhu Jianzhen had done during his thirty years in Eastern Europe.

Such an ambitious fourth child ascended the throne.

Will he be willing to be the mediator of world order?

Absolutely not!

In the first year of Chenghua, it can be seen from Zhu Jianji's speech that Ming Dynasty will always be the world's hegemon and trample the earth under its feet.

So what maintains the Jingtai vassal system?
The emperors of the vassal states are now criticizing each other. Are they training their troops?
When the time comes, will they send their troops to face the Ming Dynasty, and will World War I happen in the Ming Dynasty?
Anyway, this is what Zhu Jianjian's confidants concluded.

Zhu Jianji shuddered.

Fifteen years later, he would be seventy-eight years old even if he were still alive.

How to go to the battlefield?
If all the vassal states in the world attack the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will definitely not be able to resist it.

Before him, he could either annex the vassal state in advance, and the result was obvious. The vassal state would immediately unite to deal with the Ming Dynasty.

Either the Ming Dynasty will participate in preparations for war. Once it participates in preparations for war, it will inevitably participate in the war.

No matter what, the war will definitely break out in the Ming Dynasty.

Because the Ming Dynasty occupies too many resources in the world, who will have enough to eat if the Ming Dynasty is not divided?

Zhu Jianjian also talked with the old emperor, but his father said that he could not see the future.

After much thought, he realized two things that must be done: first, Ming Dynasty actively prepares for war and will not participate in the war if possible; second, once it participates in the war, the war must not spread to Ming Dynasty itself.

The second point is even more difficult.

The territory of the Ming Dynasty was so large that it was impossible to defend it.

And his father gave him another problem. His father buried the ashes at the border so that future generations would guard the Ming Dynasty and not lose an inch of land.

Even if the vassal state went to war with the Ming Dynasty, they would definitely not bombard his father's tomb, that's for sure.

The emperors of the vassal states were also of Zhu Qiyu's blood.

When necessary, Zhu Qiyu's mausoleum can be used to save his life.

But will you keep the emperor's mausoleum? You cannot trade space for time, you cannot use flexible tactics, you must defend the border.

Zhu Jianjian is actually not good at defense, he is good at offense.

He always believes that the best defense is offense, and he is the sharpest sword.

And Ming Dynasty needs defense precisely.

A confidant suggested that the strongest defense line in the world could be built to ensure that no one could break through the Ming Dynasty's defense line.

Zhu Jianjian gave him a haha.

What is the Great Wall used for?
When did we prevent the Hu tribe from invading the south?
It is useless to build any defense line. The stronger the fortress, the easier it is to open it.

Moreover, Zhu Jianji was not good at defending. He hated this kind of siege battle, which was grinding and annoying, but he could turn the siege battle into a field battle.

Until he ascended the throne, in the first year of Chenghua, he had no idea how to defend the Ming Dynasty.

He is the best marshal in the world, no one can surpass him.

He never imagined that if a war involving more than a million people broke out, what line of defense would be able to stop the enemy?

The day after the old emperor passed away.

Total war broke out in Europe.

The four countries of Yuan, Chen, Zhao, and France launched an all-out war against France and Germany.

Zhu Youtang enshrined the old emperor's tablet in Fengxian Hall, and then Zhu Jianshen's tablet was moved to Fengxian Hall.

Zhu Qiyu's tablets were also added to the seven temples of the princes.

As for Zhu Qizhen's tablet, he had already thrown it away.

After the war started, Zhu Youtang knelt in the Fengxian Hall and said, "Grandpa Emperor, your grandson is going to attack his fellow clan members. Can you forgive your grandson?"

"You have taught your grandchildren that war is a continuation of politics."

"My grandson wants the country to be named Dayuan, and his ambition is obvious. You also gave the country the title, which shows that you agree with my grandson."

"My grandson will be the emperor of Western Europe!"

"No, not just Western Europe!"

"My grandson will be the emperor of the Western world!"

"Dayuan, Dayuan's territory is vast, not weaker than today's Ming Dynasty. Sun'er wants to encompass Western Europe and Africa, so leave Eastern Europe to King Zhao."

"That kid's thoughts are very similar to those of my grandson."

"Grandpa, you won't blame your grandson, will you?"

"Fourth uncle is unfilial. I will lead my troops to the capital to ask you why you want to be crushed to pieces!"

"Grandpa, wait for your grandson."

Zhu Youtang commanded the chariot and rolled forward towards France.

No one knows that Dayuan has been hiding his strength. His country has long been organized, and he has been accumulating national strength, but he has not said it out, and no one in the world knows it.

this time.

The Yuan Dynasty sent troops from the north and south at the same time, taking France in the north and invading Greece in the south.

Zhao State united with Qi State to attack Germany.

The Shang State united with the Wei State to conquer the Sui Dynasty.

After Zhu Youqi heard that the old man passed away from illness, he vomited a mouthful of blood and said, "Grandpa, do you also love such a fourth uncle?"

"Why can't you share your love with your grandchildren more?"

"My grandson has made an agreement with his twentieth uncle. The Shang-Wei alliance will first train with the Sui Kingdom. After the troops leave the Western Regions, my grandson will go to the court with his sword and ask his fourth uncle."

"How is he better than my grandson!"

Europe was in chaos first, and West Asia was also in chaos.

The Ottoman royal family was restored, but on the fourteenth day of the restoration, it was strangled by the Ming army.

In Africa, Dai Guo raised troops to attack Feng Yin.

In the name of Zhu Jianji's unfilial piety by burning Zhu Qiyu's body, the acting king Zhu Jianjin declared his independence from the Ming Dynasty vassal, made the country independent, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, becoming the acting emperor!
