Daming Zhu Di: Father, why aren't you dead? !

The pen falls and the ink dries.

When these princes and princes of the Ming Dynasty read the content on the rice paper and saw the words "Law of Dynasty Cycles", they all looked less thoughtful than before. Judging from everyone's emotions and expressions, At this moment, he seemed a little disappointed. He was filled with thoughts of the Immortal Master's departure and was no longer interested in going to class.

"What are you all thinking about?!"

"Listen carefully to us!"

Lao Zhu glanced at his group of children and grandchildren in the audience who had no intention of going to class, and gave a sharp shout.

Instantly.

Under the fierce shouts of their great ancestors, these emperors and princes all straightened their backs and returned their wandering minds a little bit.

As a teaching assistant, Abiao also stood up at this time, standing on the edge of the podium, staring at the descendants of the Yan clan sweeping the audience, and insisted on completing his final duties as a teaching assistant.

"This is the last lesson that the Immortal Master teaches us. Are you going to be so perfunctory? Do you think you are worthy of the Immortal Master's efforts over the past few years?!"

"Anyone who fails the Immortal Master is not worthy of being a descendant of my Zhu family!"

Abiao, who had always been gentle and gentle, now had a stern tone in his voice.

Under the repeated beatings of Lao Zhu and A Biao, these princes and princes of the Ming Dynasty straightened their backs even more. They finally regained their concentration and took deep breaths to temporarily put away the feeling of loneliness in their hearts. After suppressing it, they all concentrated their minds on the rice paper, in the body of the immortal master, ready to listen to the teachings from the immortal master, and prepare to take this last lesson.

Everything has a beginning and an end.

"Don't be too nervous."

Podium position C.

Ji Boying glanced at the group of upright emperors and princes sitting in the audience. If it were in the past, when these people didn't pay attention to the lectures, he would indeed get angry.

But at this time, he felt very calm.

perhaps.

It's because it's all coming to an end.

When things come to an end, tolerance is greater than ever.

Taking a breath, Ji Boying put one hand behind his back and started his class as usual.

"Dynasty Cycle."

"This is a historical inevitability. It cannot be avoided by any dynasty in the past dynasties under normal circumstances, including the Ming Dynasty."

As the Immortal Master's voice sounded, all the emperors and princes in the audience had their expressions tense, and they all listened carefully with bated breath.

They naturally agreed with these words.

There were so many dynasty changes before the Ming Dynasty. The Zhu family emperors present all understood that all they could do was to make the Zhu family dynasty last as long as possible. It was unrealistic to want eternal prosperity.

Swish.

As the immortal master finished speaking.

Instantly.

I saw that the surrounding scenery had changed in an instant.

36D holographic projection, on!
"This is…!"

Everyone subconsciously looked around at the different scenery.

The ancient palaces are all topped with khaki stone pillars and dressed in unfamiliar clothes. In this ancient palace, there are people wearing animal skins. They are paying homage to the man sitting on the throne.

Whether it is the worship rituals or the accent, it is a completely new version that they have never seen or heard before.

The name of the man sitting on the throne is Qi, Si Qi to be precise. Later generations will also call him Emperor Qi and Xia Wang Qi.

This is the son of Dayu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty. He is the second monarch of the Xia Dynasty and the official founder of the family world.

"Since Dayu was passed down to Emperor Qi, the family world was officially opened, and the dynasty came into being."

The voice of the immortal master, accompanied by Dolby reverberation, sounded in the main hall and fell into everyone's ears. Everyone watched carefully and felt the shock from thousands of years ago.

of course.

There are different opinions about the replacement of monarchs in the ancient Xia Dynasty. Some say that Dayu originally meditated in Boyi, and Emperor Qi killed Boyi to seize the throne, officially changing the Gongtianxia to Jiatianxia. Others say that Dayu made the decision during his lifetime. Become the next Xia Jun.

These things can no longer be verified with certainty.

But judging from the result, the emperor opened up the family world. From now on, the monarch will only be passed down to one family and one surname, and there is no such thing as the gift of abdication.

Swish.

The holographic scene around him changed again at this moment.

When the picture condenses.

This is a battlefield. The fighting between the two armies has ended. A mighty middle-aged man wearing a battle armor and a beard is stepping on the head of a man in royal robes. No matter how unwilling the man in royal robes is, Under such a situation, he could only lie down on the ground.

The name of this mighty middle-aged man is Tang, also known as Chengtang, and the name of this man in royal robes is Jie, also known as Xia Jie. He was the last king of the Xia Dynasty.

"In the Battle of Mingtiao, Shang Tang completely defeated Xia Jie and exiled him to Mount Li, thus declaring the fall of the Xia Dynasty."

Saw this scene.

These princes and princes all have shortness of breath.

The founding and fall of the Xia Dynasty can only be known from historical records and legends. Now that we can see it with our own eyes, it is really sad.

Jie's death was due to his indulgence in enjoyment and wanton bullying of the princes, which ultimately caused the anger of the whole world.

Chengtang grasped this point and won the support of the princes with his virtue.

Swish.

After staying for a while, the picture changed again.

The picture condensed again.

What will catch everyone's eyes is still the palace scene, but this time the palace is much grander and majestic than the Xia Dynasty Palace. The construction technology has made a qualitative leap.

At this moment, in this palace, all the leaders and princes from all over the world knelt down and surrendered, paying homage to Shang Tang who was sitting on the throne. Tang established his power with virtue and brought the world to its center. From then on, it was the Yin-Shang Dynasty.

These Xia and Shang scenes from thousands of years ago are like phantom lanterns, changing in an instant.

Next scene.

The first thing that caught my eye was the raging flames. The flames soared into the sky and reflected half of the sunset red.

On the top of the Star-Zhaing Tower, the majestic King Zhou, wearing royal robes, looked up to the sky and laughed, jumping into the sea of ​​fire, announcing the end of the Yin Shang Dynasty for five hundred years.

It also starts from this moment.

The dynasty respects heaven and regards itself as the emperor. From a certain perspective, the name of the human emperor no longer exists.

………………

Xia, Shang and Zhou, Qin, Han and Jin, Tang, Song and Yuan.

Scenes were changing around them. The establishment and fall of various dynasties were played out in the eyes of these emperors and princes. Everyone's expressions looked very solemn, especially when they saw the scenes of the collapse of various dynasties. It's not about feeling frightened.

The last capital of Zhou was conquered by Qin. From then on, there was no emperor of Zhou in the world, and it entered the end of the Warring States period when the seven kingdoms stood side by side. Qin was captured by the Han in Xianyang. After the Western Chu overlord entered Xianyang, he beheaded the last Qin prince in the city, declaring the demise of Qin.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was coerced by Cao Cao's son, King Cao Pi of Wei. His ancestors wept in every possible way, but finally gave up the throne three times and managed to survive. From then on, King Wei Xing of Han Dynasty, and then Cao Mao of Wei refused to be a puppet king. , personally led hundreds of guards and slaves in a battle, and killed the rebels. The drama between Han and Wei was staged between Wei and Jin, and the world was divided into three parts.

During the troubled times of the Jin Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, with the north and south divided, and the barbarians ravaging the Central Plains. A hundred years later, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty finally ended the troubled times, reunified the Central Plains, and restored peace to the world.

After the death of Sui II, during the troubled times, General Tiance swept across the Central Plains, and the Tang Dynasty finally prospered.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Wen also brought chaos to the country, killed the king and usurped the throne, ushering in the troubled times of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. After decades of chaos, the Central Plains changed its masters five times. You just sing and I will appear on the stage, and finally the world will be settled with the yellow robe of Zhao Kuangyin.

........................

The changes in this picture completely performed the various dynasties before the Ming Dynasty, from the rise to the fall of the dynasty, in front of everyone at an extremely fast speed.

finally.

The scene is fixed on the scene of the prime minister jumping into the sea with the young emperor on his back at the end of the Song Dynasty. It is a sad and sad scene, announcing the death of the Song Dynasty.

As for the Yuan Dynasty after the Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown by Lao Zhu himself, so there is no need to show it to these great emperors and princes again.

then.

This frozen scene of jumping into the sea disappeared like a dream bubble, returning to the original scene of the main hall.

Podium position C.

Ji Boying glanced at the group of emperors and princes in the audience, and it could be seen from the eyes of these people that everyone saw their own side from this VCR.

"Dynasties come and go, and there is no such thing as eternal dynasty."

"When a dynasty falls into decay and is unable to recover, as far as the people of the world are concerned, it is better to survive than to perish."

The Immortal Master's voice fell in everyone's ears word by word, like a warning bell to everyone.

Needless to say about the early Ming Dynasty, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, whether it was the emperor or the courtiers, even if there were various problems, it was a new dynasty after all. The emperor and courtiers were working hard to build the country, and everything was moving towards Develop the good aspects.

However, as the big ship of the dynasty traveled along the long river of history, various problems gradually appeared in the hull, until it was hopeless and the only choice was to change the ship.

Especially the emperors in the late Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taichang, Emperor Tianqi, and Zhu Youjian.

The moment they heard the Immortal Master's words, these people couldn't help but think about whether the Ming Dynasty under their rule had fallen into decay and whether it was necessary to continue to exist.

Thinking of the chronic diseases within their own dynasty, these people couldn't help but frown.

The determination in my heart to get rid of the bad government became stronger and stronger.

"of course."

"I just showed you this, and I am not talking about this to dampen your enthusiasm."

"On the contrary, I want you to be alert at all times, reflect on yourselves at all times, and do not let yourselves repeat the same path of past dynasties."

The immortal master finished speaking.

All the princes and princes of the Ming Dynasty in the audience lowered their heads and remained silent.

Suddenly.

Wu Zong Zhu Houzhao asked his own question.

"Immortal Master."

"In that case, what should we do to avoid following the same path of previous dynasties and break through the cyclical law of dynasties?"

The voice started.

Everyone's eyes lit up and they all looked at the immortal master on the podium.

Let me ask, which emperor does not want his dynasty to last for thousands of years, which emperor does not want his career to continue to be glorious for thousands of years, no one wants his dynasty to fall, and no one wants to repeat the so-called cyclical law of historical dynasties.

Even Lao Zhu couldn't help but stand up at this moment. Of course, he also hoped that the Ming Dynasty founded by him would have a more extended country, instead of just being limited to five hundred years.

His eyes were narrowed, and he vaguely remembered that he had asked his brother a similar question somewhere. It seemed to be before the Taoist Palace that was on fire in the Jiajing Daming Dynasty.

Facing the problem of Wu Zong Zhu Houzhao.

Ji Boying did not choose to answer directly, but raised his hand first.

All of a sudden.

Including Lao Zhu and A Biao, as well as all the princes and princes of the Great Tomorrow in the audience, two objects appeared in the hands of everyone, one on the left and one on the right in front of them.

To be precise, two plates.

On the left is the fresh bear paw, and on the right is the golden arowana. Both are already cooked, and the fragrance lingers in the main hall, enchanting the taste buds.

There is a saying that has been very popular from ancient times to the present. Even in later generations, it can be said that every household knows it.

“You can’t have your cake and eat it too.”

The person who said this is Yongle Lao Zhu Di.

The expressions of other people became solemn the moment they heard this. They didn't understand why the immortal master put these two things in front of them, and what he wanted to tell them.

At this time.

The voice of the Immortal Master sounded.

"Everything in the world follows a cycle of cause and effect, and yin and yang work together. If there is gain, there must be loss."

"Just like the fish and the bear's paw in front of you, you can't have both. Now the choice I give you is that you can only choose one of them. What is your choice?"

The words fell.

Everyone was confused.

If we simply refer to bear paws and golden fish, each of them is an emperor and has all kinds of rare treasures at their fingertips. How can they be so interested in these two things? It can be said that they actually don’t want any of them.

But it is obvious that the bear paws and golden fish that the immortal refers to are not the bear paws and golden fish themselves, but the metaphorical values ​​​​afterward.

"I made it clearer."

Ji Boying scanned the crowd and found that many people still had doubts in their eyes, obviously not understanding the meaning.

The Immortal Master's voice continued to ring in everyone's ears.

This time, it is no longer cryptic, but the words are spoken directly, so that some students who do not understand enough will remain confused.

"The golden fish and bear paws in front of you at this moment, the bear paw on the left represents the supreme imperial power in your hands, and the right represents the extension of the kingdoms of your dynasties."

"Tell me what your choice is."

"Should I choose the imperial power of the Emperor of the Zhu Dynasty, or the Guo Zuo Yongchang of the Zhu Dynasty?"

hum.

When the immortal master clarified the problem completely, even Lao Zhu fell into deep entanglement in an instant.

Because in the first subconscious mind of these emperors of the Zhu family, the so-called emperor of the Ming Dynasty naturally holds the supreme imperial power of the Ming Dynasty and is the unequivocal ruler of the empire of the Ming Dynasty.

If, as an emperor, he has no imperial power, then what kind of emperor is he? He is just a puppet at the mercy of others! (End of chapter)
