Daming: Spoilers about the future, Zhu Yuanzhang collapsed

Zhao Kuangyin was so angry that he felt dizzy and for a moment, he felt that his blood pressure was about to explode.

He was really shocked by the news that Han Cheng and the others told him.

Endless anger arose in my heart.

This is the Privy Councilor!
The highest official position among military generals.

As a result, this also needs to be done by civilian officials? !

That bastard, is he planning to destroy the Song Dynasty?

It's fine that civil officials are in charge of military preparations at the local level, but they are also allowed to be civil officials when meeting with the Privy Councilors!

What is this for?
Military generals do need to be suppressed. After all, it is not good for them to have too much power.

However, being too repressive is not a good idea either!

If the military force is not strong enough, it will cause a series of major problems.

He suppressed the military generals so hard that the Song Dynasty had to walk on one leg.

There will definitely be big problems in the future!

"By the way, the only military commander who served as Privy Councilor in the Song Dynasty was named Di Qing.

This is a very capable fighter.

Because Di Qing had tattoos on his face, he was considered a bandit at the time.

Later, because of his great contributions, he became the Privy Councilor.

This set a precedent in the Song Dynasty.

The civil servants were completely furious at once.

The civil service group began to target Di Qing frantically.

Among them, the more famous one is that only the one who calls out the names at Donghua Gate is a hero.

It refers to one of Di Qing's subordinates, whose name was Jiao Yong.

Because he committed a small crime, he was caught by Han Qi.

To execute him.

Upon hearing this, Di Qing hurried to Di Qing to plead for mercy.

They wanted to save the general, saying that he had made great contributions to the country and was a good man, and it would be a pity to kill him.

It would be better to let him continue fighting on the battlefield.

Han Qi angrily shouted that the one who called out the names at Donghua Gate was a real hero!
What kind of hero is Jiao?
Han Qi ignored Di Qing's plea, and instead chopped Jiao Yong to death in front of Di Qing.

It is also said that when Di Qing and Han Qi were drinking, a singing girl came to sing and during the banquet, she directly offered a glass of wine to Hua Lian'er.

This is because when Di Qing was young, he once took the blame for his brother.

His face was tattooed and became a clown.

This is a satire on him being a thief in the army.

A singing girl dared to mock an important official in the court like this, and he was someone who had made great contributions.

Apart from anything else, just from this we can see how low the status of military generals is.

What it's like to be suppressed.

However, when Di Qing, a military general, took on the role of Privy Councilor, a position that should have been held by a military general, it was like stirring up a hornet's nest.

The entire scholar-official class was in an uproar.

Countless people attacked Di Qing in various ways.

They used ancestral teachings to pressure others.

It is said that from the founding of the Song Dynasty until now, there has never been a military general serving as Privy Councilor.

Various impeachments.

The final result was that Di Qing, who was the bravest on horseback and had made great contributions, was eventually banished from the capital by the emperor.

Later, he was tortured to death by the civil officials!"

When Han Cheng talked about this, he felt a little indignant.

These people in the Song Dynasty are really hard to describe.

The suppression of the generals is too severe!

Foreign wars were a mess, and they had to bow down and kowtow in various ways.

When it comes to internal affairs, they will really spare no effort when attacking their own people!
Through Di Qing's example, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin also had a deeper understanding of the bad precedent set by the beast Zhao Guangyi!
In the end, how many bad consequences did it bring to the Song Dynasty!

He also believed that the experience of Di Qing, a general in later generations, was just one of many.

There will be many people like Di Qing who suffer great injustice.

If we treat our soldiers like this, who will be willing to fight in future wars?
Let these scholars use their pens to kill the enemy? !
What does it mean to go too far and ignore the facts?
That's what this bastard did!

"Why does Zhao Guangyi, that beast, value culture over military power?

In our opinion, another important reason is that the bastard himself does not have the ability to lead troops to fight.

The two northern expeditions against the Liao Kingdom were so disastrous!
It's so embarrassing!
I was scared of being hit on the head and I don’t dare to fight again!

So I started to frantically try to make up for it from other places.

Originally, he wanted to prove through two Northern Expeditions that his military capabilities were no worse than yours as the big brother.

In fact, it can even far surpass you as the big brother.

Then, his face was not revealed, but his butt was.

Shame on Dafa.

So they began to frantically belittle and suppress military generals and promote civil governance.

He can only advocate civil governance.”

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth from the side to make the final move.

“By the way, in addition to these, there is another famous thing.

You can see how beastly this guy is. That is Xiao Zhouhou, the wife of Li Yu, the last emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty. "

Han Cheng waited until Zhao Kuangyin's emotions seemed to have calmed down a little before he started telling his story again.

When Zhao Kuangyin heard Han Cheng mention the name of Xiao Zhouhou, a figure suddenly emerged in his mind.

She was a very charming woman.

Her appearance and Li Yu's talent in writing lyrics are truly a perfect match.

A serious beauty paired with a talented man.

However, Li Yu's talent was gained at the cost of the Southern Tang dynasty.

Although Li Yu was good at writing lyrics, he was only good at writing lyrics.

For a monarch, the most important thing is not writing lyrics.

After Li Yu surrendered, he was quite nice in settling Xiao Zhouhou and others.

No offense was ever given.

Gave them a pretty good life.

No worries about food and clothing.

How could this be...According to Han Cheng, that beast had done many shameful things to Xiao Zhou Hou? !
Han Cheng said: "He has been coveting such a beauty as Xiao Zhou Hou for a long time.

But when you were alive, he was not the emperor and did not dare to act recklessly.

So I just kept these things in my heart.

But later, after you died and he became emperor, he let himself go.

He directly took action against Xiao Zhouhou.

He often summoned Concubine Xiao Zhou to the palace for pleasure.

After Xiao Zhou Hou returned, she often cried..."

"Oh!"

Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but punched the table in front of him hard.

How can he be a king if he behaves like this?
If Li Yu died, and you really coveted his beauty, it would make sense for you to take Concubine Xiao Zhou into the palace.

But Li Yu is still alive, after all, he was once the emperor of a country.

Now he is insulting the other party's women like this, how can this be allowed?
This is not what a monarch should do!
It's shameful!
Just when he thought, this was infuriating enough.

But what Han Cheng said next clearly told him that this was just the beginning.

Zhao Guangyi’s shamelessness is not limited to this.

"Once, he called Xiao Zhouhou over to accompany him for drinking, and flirted with her in front of many people.

Later, he was so excited that he did something dirty and asked the painter to watch and draw it.

This is a widely circulated and extremely famous painting.

She is called the Night Queen Zhou. "

"You bastard! You beast! Why did the King of Hell give him a human skin?!"

After becoming emperor, Zhao Kuangyin gradually stopped swearing, but today he broke the rule in the Ming Dynasty.

Just start cursing here.

If he and this bastard weren't from the same mother and there weren't many things they couldn't say to him, he would have cursed even more harshly!
Zhao Kuangyin was really going crazy!
It was shameless enough to force Concubine Xiao Zhou to do all kinds of shameful things!
But this bastard actually did something even more shameless!
In front of so many people, he even asked someone to draw it!

Why doesn't he die?
Why don’t you just die!

This beast!

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin really wanted to chop Zhao Guangyi to death with a knife!

"This beast, what else has he done?"

After a while, Zhao Kuangyin, who had calmed down a little, looked at Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang and asked again.

Han Cheng thought for a moment and said: That means killing your brother Zhao Tingmei.

When Zhao Kuangyin heard this, his eyes froze!
How come... this beast killed Tingmei too? !

What is the beast thinking!

Is he crazy?!

"If we really talk about this matter, we have to look back to the past, mainly because of the Golden Casket Alliance.

The matter of the Golden Casket was first officially made public in the court in the sixth year of Zhao Guangyi's reign.

In the sixth year of Taiping Xingguo, the "Golden Casket Agreement" presented by Zhao Pu, discovered and made public by Zhao Guangyi was the Duchuan Agreement.

It is recorded in the "History of the Song Dynasty: Biography of Empress Dowager Du" that in the second year of Jianlong, the empress dowager was ill, and Taizu always stayed by her side to serve her.

The Queen Mother knew that her life was coming to an end, so she summoned Prime Minister Zhao Pu into the palace.

The Queen Mother asked Taizu: "Do you know how to gain the world?"

Taizu said: "The reason why I was able to gain the world is all due to the accumulated blessings of my ancestors and the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother said: "No, it is precisely because Emperor Shizong of Zhou allowed the young child to rule the world.

If the Zhou family had a long-term ruler, would the world belong to you?
After your death, the throne should be passed to your brother. The world is vast, and it is a blessing for the country to have a long-term ruler."

Taizu bowed his head and cried, "How dare I not teach you!"

The Queen Mother turned to Zhao Pu and said, "You two must remember my words and not disobey them."

Zhao Pu wrote the oath in front of the bed, and wrote "This is from you" at the end of the paper and hid it in the golden box.

He ordered the cautious palace maids to take charge of it.

This is the origin of the Golden Casket Alliance.

There are also other versions.

It is said to be the Golden Casket Alliance, which stipulates that you, the emperor, will pass the throne to your younger brother Zhao Guangyi.

Later, Zhao Guangyi passed the throne to Zhao Tingmei.

Then, Zhao Tingmei will pass it on to your son Zhao Dezhao."

"But screw him... that bastard!
What the hell are you talking about here?

Pure fabrication!
There is no such thing as the Golden Casket Alliance!
I do not know how?!"

Zhao Kuangyin cursed directly.

From the moment he paused there, it could be seen that he didn't originally intend to curse like that.

Finally he realized what was happening and changed his words temporarily.

After hearing what Zhao Kuangyin said, Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang understood it all at once and nodded.

I knew there was something fishy going on with this matter.

As for Zhao Guangyi, after Zhao Kuangyin's death, he immediately became anxious and tried various ways to prove that he was the legitimate successor and had succeeded to the throne in a normal way. It seemed that he had killed his brother to seize the throne.

If the Golden Casket Alliance really existed, he would definitely take it out at the first possible moment.

Why would you wait until five or six years have passed before bringing this up?

This is definitely fake at first glance.

“After a person tells a lie, he will use countless lies to cover it up.

Zhao Guangyi came up with the Golden Casket Alliance to prove his legitimacy.

But soon, this matter came back to him.

It became something that kept him awake at night.

That is his younger brother Zhao Tingmei.

According to the Golden Casket Alliance, his younger brother Zhao Tingmei can also inherit the throne in the future.

So, a murder plot against Zhao Tingmei soon began.

In March of the seventh year of Taipingxingguo, the Shuixin Palace of Jinming Lake was completed, and Zhao Guangyi prepared to go boating there.

Someone came out to report Zhao Tingmei, saying, "He planned to launch a rebellion at this time. If that failed, he would pretend to be sick at home and wait for the emperor to come to the province, and then start a rebellion."

After receiving the report, Zhao Guangyi said that he "could not bear to expose the matter", so he dismissed Zhao Tingmei from the post of Kaifeng Yin and sent him to Xijing to stay behind.

Zhao Tingmei was given a robe, a rhinoceros horn belt, 100,000 coins, and 10,000 pieces of silk ribbons...

In April, when Zhao Tingmei was about to leave Kaifeng and head west to Luoyang, Zhao Guangyi ordered the Privy Councilor Cao Bin to hold a banquet in Qionglin Garden to see Zhao Tingmei off...

... Seventy-four people including the Prince's Grand Tutor Wang Pu jointly submitted a memorial, saying that Lu Duosun and Zhao Tingmei "looked back and forth and cursed, which was extremely treasonous and should be executed to correct the criminal law. Zhao Bai and others requested that they be executed."

Zhao Guangyi then issued an imperial decree to strip Lu Duosun of his official title and exile him and his family to Yazhou.

Zhao Tingmei was allowed to return to his private residence.

Zhao Bai, Yan Mi, Wang Jixun, Fan Deming, Zhao Huailu, and Yan Huaizhong were all beheaded outside the capital, and their property was confiscated.

He also ordered Zhao Tingmei's children to be stripped of their status as princes and princesses...

All of Zhao Tingmei's children were sent to Xijing.

In May, Li Fu, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture who succeeded Zhao Tingmei in charge of Kaifeng Prefecture, said: Tingmei does not repent and is resentful, so I request to move him to a distant county to prevent him from making trouble.

Zhao Guangyi then demoted Zhao Tingmei to the Duke of Fuling County and settled him in Fangzhou.

At the same time, he ordered Chongyi Deputy Envoy Yan Yanjin to be the Governor of Fangzhou, and Supervisory Censor Yuan Kuo to be the Tong Magistrate of Fangzhou, and gave each of them 300 taels of white gold to supervise Zhao Tingmei.

In the first month of the first year of Yongxi, Zhao Tingmei died in Fangzhou due to "worry and illness".

After hearing the news, Zhao Guangyi "sobbed and shed tears, overwhelmed with grief."

He cried and said to the prime minister: Tingmei has been stubborn since he was young, and he has become so vicious when he grows up. I cannot bear to bring him to justice as we are close relatives.

Let him live in Fangling, hoping that he will reflect on his mistakes. I feel sympathy for him and never forget him for a moment.

I was just wanting to extend kindness to him and restore our friendship, but he passed away suddenly. I am so sad and heartbroken!

Everyone around was moved.

So Zhao Tingmei was posthumously named King of Fuling, given the posthumous title of "Dao", and court was suspended for five days.

After Song Huizong ascended the throne, he was renamed the King of Wei..."

"Bang!!"

After Han Cheng's voice fell, a bang was heard in the room.

It turned out that it was Zhao Kuangyin with red eyes, who chopped Han Cheng's desk with an axe.

Han Cheng's face twitched slightly.

Good guy!
He knew that if Zhao Kuangyin knew about these things, he would lose his table.

Now it seems that it is indeed the case!
This is the beginning of the axe!
But...where do we go from here?

There were so many emperors in the Song Dynasty, and they did so many inhumane things.

If he continues to talk like this, Zhao Kuangyin might even get so angry that he has a cerebral hemorrhage.
At this time, Zhao Kuangyin really wanted to kill someone, he really wanted to!

This is really not something a human would do!
He knew that money could move people's hearts, and he also knew that the throne could move people's hearts.

Having experienced five dynasties of chaos, he has witnessed too many struggles surrounding imperial power.

But he didn't expect that someone could be so cruel.

He killed his elder brother, killed his own son, and now, his younger brother Tingmei was also killed?
What they did was so cruel and shameless!

Still as damnable and shameless as before!
It's obvious that this bastard did it all himself!
He cried when his two sons were forced to death, and he cried when his eldest brother was killed.

Even now, Tingmei has been forced to death, and he is still crying!

hypocrisy!

ungrateful!

I have never seen such a beast!
I decided right then and there that when I got back, I would cut this man into pieces!
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the furious Zhao Kuangyin with some sympathy in his eyes.

He had experienced the same thing before.

I'm so angry.

Moreover, the things that Zhao Guangyi did were truly outrageous!

“His eldest son, Zhao Yuanzuo, was very angry because he was demoted without a certificate because he was dissatisfied with his uncle.

Openly questioned Zhao Guangyi.

Zhao Guangyi was furious.

From now on, he no longer loved this man who he had always been close to and felt was like his eldest son.

After the news of Zhao Tingmei's death came back.

Zhao Yuanzuo was so angry that he became insane. It took him a long time to recover.

However, later, when Zhao Guang held a banquet on the Double Ninth Festival, he deliberately left his son out and did not let him attend.

This caused him to become mentally ill again and his old illness relapsed.

Just set fire to the palace...

Later, Zhao Guangyi imprisoned his eldest son in the Nan Palace.

He was not allowed to come out... He lived to be sixty-two years old..."

After hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin's face turned pale.

I also feel it is extremely regrettable.

Poor Yuan Zuo, such an upright and loving person, but he ended up like this...

What a beast!
He was his own son! He treated him like this!
This beast deserves to die!
Zhao Kuangyin only felt that there were many things stuck in his chest!

The whole person is about to explode!
This beast!
I absolutely cannot let him go!
"Bang bang bang..."

He picked up the axe and chopped the table in front of him repeatedly!
The table was split in half!

"Um... I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself and used too much force..."

After using an axe to smash the table into pieces, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but apologize to Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand:
"It's okay, we understand how you feel."

Zhu Yuanzhang not only understood, he felt the same way!
Seeing Zhao Kuangyin smashing the table here, he remembered what he had done before to Han Cheng!
It’s exactly the same!
Seeing Zhao Kuangyin was like seeing himself.

"Has this beast done anything else?"

Zhao Kuangyin looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Han Cheng with red eyes and asked.

He was determined to go all out this time, even if it meant getting mad at himself, he had to listen carefully.

What a beast this has done, what a beastly thing!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Han Cheng looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "These are the only famous ones."

Zhao Kuangyin felt somewhat relieved when he heard this.

It’s finally gone!

Finally finished!
"This beast! When I get back, I will cut him into pieces!!"

He spoke out harshly.

Then he looked at Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Then... who will be the emperor of the Song Dynasty next?

How did you do after becoming the emperor?

At this time, he was really worried.

After all, the Liao Kingdom seemed very strong at that time.

That beast lost all the savings of the Song Dynasty in two terrible battles.

The Liao Kingdom was in a weak position.

The key point is that after being defeated twice in a row, he lost all his energy and was defeated.

It is also madly emphasizing culture and suppressing military power.

Under such circumstances, the situation in the Song Dynasty would definitely not be much better.

The situation is extremely precarious!

So I especially want to see what happened later in the Song Dynasty.

And at this time, he could already see that Han Cheng in front of him was the son-in-law of the emperor of future generations.

But because of his special status, he has a very high status in front of the emperor.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is my biological son.

Therefore, he became more polite to Han Cheng.

Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at each other, and Han Cheng said:

“Or…you should stop asking about this and go back first.

Don’t worry too much about what happens next. I’ve said enough. It’s okay to take a break first.”

Zhu Yuanzhang and Han Cheng were afraid that if Zhao Kuangyin continued to listen, he would not be able to bear the great shock.

I'm so angry that I'm going to get hurt.

If this is true, then the sin is too great.

So at this time, they wanted Zhao Kuangyin to stop for a while and go back to the Song Dynasty to deal with all the people who needed to be dealt with.

Quickly eliminate the crisis of the Song Dynasty.

Getting rid of Zhao Guangyi and resolving the candlelight and axe sound is the right thing to do.

After you finish this task, it won’t be too late to talk about the rest later.

After hearing what Han Cheng said, Zhao Kuangyin thought about it and said:
“You two, I know you have good intentions and are thinking about me.

But...if I don’t listen to what happens in the future, I’ll feel a little uneasy.”

After hearing what Zhao Kuangyin said, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about how he would feel when facing his descendants in the future about the things he had done.

But I can totally understand Zhao Kuangyin's thoughts.

I stopped trying to persuade him.

Seeing this, Han Cheng began to tell Zhao Kuangyin what happened next.

"The next person to inherit the throne is Zhao Guangyi's third son Zhao Heng.

He had nine sons in total, and Zhao Heng was the third oldest.

Originally, Zhao Guangyi liked his eldest son the most, but after his death, the eldest son ended up like that.

Later, he was planning to let the second son take over the throne, but he suddenly passed away.

So he set his sights on the third brother.

When he was in poor health, he asked Kou Zhun who should be made the crown prince.

After a series of questions and answers, Zhao Heng was finally made the crown prince.

After his death, Zhao Heng inherited the throne and became the third emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Heng came later and was called Emperor Zhenzong of Song.

At the same time, he is also the only emperor of the Song Dynasty who has performed Fengshan at Mount Tai!"

The only emperor who performed Fengshan at Mount Tai? !
After Han Cheng said this, Zhao Kuangyin was stunned for a moment!
Then I became extremely excited!
Since ancient times, those who have been enshrined in the Fengshan Temple on Mount Tai have all made great achievements.

Now Zhao Heng has also been enthroned on Mount Tai, doesn't that mean he has accomplished many great feats that have shocked the world? !
