Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 163 His death is greater than his lifetime contribution

"Yunwen?" Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao looked at each other, neither of them understood what Li Qing meant.

Under the signal from Lao Zhu's eyes, Zhu Biao took Zhu Bai out and returned him to the eunuch just now.

Suddenly, Lao Zhu suddenly asked: "Could it be that this guy Zhu Yunwen cut down the vassal clan after he came to power?"

Since Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao didn't have much impression of Xiang Wang Zhu Bai at this time, Li Qing planned to let them get to know what a good boy Xiang Wang Zhu Bai was.

I don’t know how good King Xiang is, but how can he lower his blood pressure in a while?

"Let's watch a video first." Li Qing said, reaching out to create a light curtain.

The Zhu family father and son immediately raised their heads and looked at the screen. Both of them were amazed by this fairy-like method.

"In the [-]th year of Hongwu, King Zhu Bai of Hunan enfeoffed the Jing Kingdom. This is the scene before he and his brothers prepared to set off."

In the picture, Zhu Yuanzhang and his disciples who have grown up appear.

"Before the feudal lordship, Lao Zhu gave each of them a jade belt. Here, it is the one they are wearing."

Following Li Qing's explanation, all the kings put on the jade belts around their waists.

"Turn around, let's take a look at the decoration at the back." Lao Zhu in the picture said to the princes with satisfaction.

When all the kings heard this, they all turned their backs to Lao Zhu. Only Zhu Bai turned the jade belt around his waist to Lao Zhu for inspection.

Lao Zhu couldn't help but be a little curious, and he asked: "Hey, Lao Twelve, why don't you turn around like your brothers?"

King Zhu Bai of Xiang replied sternly: "You cannot carry your father on your back!"

Hearing these words, both Lao Zhu in the picture and Lao Zhu beside Li Qing had a look of relief on their faces.

"What a good boy." The two old Zhus said in unison.

Li Shimin also has a bit of a taste for it. Why isn't his son so good?

In the picture, Zhu Bai's life passed quickly. He likes to read, often reading late at night, and set up "Jingyuan Pavilion" to recruit talented people to proofread and organize books; he also likes military affairs, has extraordinary physical strength, is proficient in eighteen kinds of weapons, is especially good at equestrian, and is quite a hero. gas. And he always likes to bring books with him, and he will never give up reading no matter it is severe cold or scorching heat. Every time he passed by famous mountains and rivers, he would often stay there and recite poems and write poems about them.

Moreover, Zhu Bai's military skills were also very good. He went on several expeditions to conquer the barbarians, often risking his own weapons and charging forward. Lao Zhu also praised him very much and specially summoned him to the capital to express his gratitude for his military exploits.

"Lao Zhu..." Li Shimin called out subconsciously.

"What?" Lao Zhu stared straight at the handsome and handsome young man in the picture, feeling uncontrollably satisfied.

This is our son! Ha, our good son! It’s really cool for us!
  "Are you interested in getting married? I have a daughter named Xincheng, who is about the same age as your junior this year." Li Shimin was obviously attracted by such a good young man.

Knowing Li Qing's bad taste, he immediately understood that this Zhu Bai would definitely not end well. So he is also thinking, if he can become his son-in-law in the year of Zhenguan, we, Lao Li, will definitely favor him to the heavens.

"Hey, that's okay." Lao Zhu was also interested. Of course he knew that Princess Xincheng was Lao Li's legitimate daughter. She was the sister of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, whom Li Zhi held in his hands and was afraid to melt away.

But before he could ask further, the scene suddenly changed.

In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, Lao Zhu passed away. When King Zhu Bai of Hunan learned the news of his father's death, he was deeply saddened. In particular, Zhu Yunwen did not allow the kings to come to the capital to mourn, which made him want to abandon the world.

"Idiot! Idiot!" Lao Zhu's heart was almost broken. Such a filial and good boy, hey...why can't he think about it like this?
  However, before he could feel uncomfortable for long, King Zhu Bai of Hunan soon encountered a crisis.

In the first year of Jianwen, Zhu Bai was accused of conspiracy, counterfeiting of treasures, and murder without authorization. Zhu Yunwen issued an edict and ordered Zhu Bai to go to the capital for questioning. After a meeting and discussion, the ministers of the DPRK and China decided to send troops to hide weapons in cars filled with piles of wood and disguise them as caravans.

After the caravan arrived in Jingzhou, soldiers preparing to arrest Zhu Bai unexpectedly surrounded Zhu Bai's mansion.

*Rage value +20000 from Zhu Yuanzhang
  "Villain! What a despicable and shameless villain!" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and scolded Zhu Yunwen repeatedly that Yang Ying had pulled out his teeth - baby toothless, "How could we, Zhu Yuanzhang, the hero of the first life, give birth to such a rat-like grandson! Wow ya ya ya ah……"

Zhu Biao's chest was also heaving violently. If Zhu Yunwen hadn't been born yet, Zhu Biao would have sworn that he must beat this bitch to death!
  After Zhu Bai in the picture learned the news, he was surprised at his eldest nephew's shamelessness and felt angry. He looked up to the sky and sighed: "Oh, I think the previous ministers were imprisoned when they met with violent dynasties, and they often committed suicide. As the son of Taizu, when my father passed away, I could neither visit the patient nor attend the funeral. I feel sorry for him. It’s so painful, what fun is there in living in this world! Will I be humiliated by slaves again today? How can I survive like this!"

After that, Zhu Bai burst into tears and drank farewell with his family in the palace, with tears streaming down his clothes.

He set fire to the palace and concubines with his own hands, put on the prince's clothes, mounted the white horse that had been with him in battle for many years, held a bow and arrow in his hand and shouted at the soldiers besieging the palace: "How can I, the emperor, be humiliated by the blood of a traitor?" !”

After saying this, he jumped into the fire and committed suicide.

"Little Twelve!" Lao Zhu cried out sadly. Li Qing's words were far less impactful than the real scene. Seeing his own son being forced to death by his grandson for no reason, he now wanted to kill Zhu Yunwen with a knife. .

However, the bigger ones are yet to come.

Zhu Bai had no children. After his death, the feudal kingdom was removed. His posthumous title was Ru, and he was the King of Xiang Ru.

*Incoming Zhu Yuanzhang’s rage value +50000
  It has to be Lao Zhu, his blood pressure is worthy of Emperor Hongwu.

Lao Zhu roared and kicked Zhu Biao.

"Your son forced our son to death, and you want to add such an evil posthumous title!?"

Zhu Biao fell on the ground, wailing. Why didn't he feel heartache? That was his younger brother who had grown up with his own hands.

Lao Zhu gritted his teeth, grinding his teeth and sucking blood.

He could already imagine what kind of fate his other sons suffered.

"Dad! Please take back my life! Even if the daughter of the Lu family is as beautiful as a fairy, my son will not marry him!" Zhu Biao lay on the ground and begged loudly.

Even if Zhu Biao didn't say anything, Lao Zhu would not let him marry Lu Ben's daughter.

He figured out that the scholar-bureaucrats in Jiangnan could not be trusted. Even if they dare to do little tricks when they are here, let alone what tricks they will do after they are gone.

What a deception!
  "Don't worry, boss, even if we let you marry a pockmarked man, we don't want that Lu family!" Lao Zhu said fiercely.

At the end, he pointed at Zhu Biao's nose and warned: "Let me tell you, Xiongying, please teach us well. If he drives his uncle to death after he comes to power, we will skin you!"

"Yes, yes, dad is right, you don't need to peel it off, my son can do it himself." Zhu Biao said immediately.

"Actually, there is a conspiracy theory in history," Li Qing withdrew the light curtain and said to the two of them: "It is said that the deaths of Crown Princess Chang, Zhu Xiongying, and Zhu Biao were all related to Lu."

"Why do you say that?" Zhu Biao was shocked.

"You are also a smart person. Think about it for yourself, who is most beneficial to this situation?"

Although it is a bit result-oriented, this suspicion is indeed the biggest. Just like the death of Princess Andingsi, her death would be most beneficial to Wu Meiniang, so the suspicion cannot be eliminated.

"In addition, after the death of Crown Princess Jingyi, Zhu Yunxi was raised by the Lu family and was extremely cowardly. He did not even have the courage to compete for the position of the emperor's grandson..."

As soon as these words came out, Lao Zhu immediately sentenced the Lu family to death in his heart.

"In fact, whether it is the Lu family or the Song family, as long as the daughter of the Jiangnan scholar-bureaucrat group enters Xiao Biao's harem, they will rely on this result..." Li Qing stretched out his hand and shook his finger in the air, "You Mingyi During the dynasty, many emperors died in mysterious circumstances, especially Ming Wuzong, the Zhengde Emperor who was easily soluble in water."

"We understand!" Zhu Yuanzhang said through gritted teeth.

Li Qing turned to Li Shimin, who looked sad, and said to him: "Brother Li, don't worry, your Tang Dynasty poisoned the emperor before it was the turn of the civil servants, and all the eunuchs in your Tang Dynasty were deposed."

*Depression value from Li Shimin +10000
  "The topic then turns back to Zhu Yunwen. In fact, it was not just the King of Xiang. The first one he captured was the King of Zhou Zhu Ji. In August of the [-]st year of Hongwu, only three months after Lao Zhu died, Zhu Yunwen asked the King of Zhou, do you want to die or live? Then he deposed Zhu Ji as a commoner and was exiled to Yunnan. In November, he ordered Zhang Bing, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, to be the envoy to Peiping, and Xie Gui and Zhang Xin were in charge of Peiping. They all commanded the envoys to secretly supervise the affairs of Prince Yan's palace."

Many people believe that Zhu Di is not Queen Ma's biological child based on Huang Zicheng's belief that "Zhou King Zhu Ji and Yan King Zhu Di have the same mother". In fact, it was not the case, because among the five sons of Queen Ma at that time, Prince Zhu Biao, King of Qin Zhu Xi, and King of Jin Zhu Fan had all passed away. Then Zhu Di’s only half-brother was Zhu Ji? Furthermore, if Zhu Di was really not the son of Empress Ma, Zhu Yunwen would have told the world long ago, so why wait for future generations to speculate?

"Is he so impatient?" Lao Zhu flew up, but was reluctant to kick Zhu Biao. He turned around and kicked Zhu Biao on the stool: "We have only been dead for three months, and our bones are not cold yet!"

"In February of the first year of Jianwen, Zhu Yunwen issued an edict that the kings could not control the civil and military officials of the palace; in March, in order to guard against Zhu Di, the king of Yan who was enfeoffed in Peiping, Zhu Yunwen issued an edict to weaken his army and ordered the governors Song Zhong, Xu Kai, and Geng Ying He led troops to be stationed in Kaiping, Linqing, and Shanhaiguan around Peiping, and transferred the troops and horses of the Peiping and Yongqing Guards to Zhangde and Shunde. In April, the King of Xiang set himself on fire, and Qi King Zhu Su and Dai King Zhu Gui were deposed as common people due to their crimes. ; In the sixth month, King Min Zhu was found guilty and was deposed as a commoner and exiled to Zhangzhou."

At this point, Li Qing sighed to Lao Zhu: "Lao Zhu, did you owe Zhu Yunzhen something in your previous life? It feels like he is here to take revenge on you..."

*Rage value from Zhu Yuanzhang +100000
  Li Qing is really eye-opening. My brother Zhu is really awesome. This is the first time we have seen someone so angry that he can explode with [-] rage points at once.

"This beast! Beast!" Lao Zhu cursed angrily, and then he couldn't help but worry: "Then... what about the fourth child? Will the fourth child also let this beast..."

Lao Zhu was really uncomfortable. Zhu Di was his favorite son besides Zhu Biao.

"Yes, Zhu Di had no choice but to pretend to be crazy in order not to suffer the same fate as other brothers." Li Qing sighed and said to Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao: "He pretends to be crazy on the street, acting like a madman. No one in Zhu Yunwen believed it, so in desperation, Zhu Di had no choice but to run into the pig pen and live with the pigs..."

"Fourth..." Zhu Yuanzhang was really distressed, and his heart was twitching: "You are so confused! With so many troops in Peiping, you rebelled against your mother! Just sit back and wait for death, we don't have you This son!"

Having said that, I feel really distressed.

The fourth child has been so proud since he was a child, and now he is fighting with the pigs for food in the pig pen in order to survive...

"Hey, Brother Chongba, he really rebelled." Li Qing said with a bang: "In July, Zhu Di planned to capture Zhang Bing and Xie Gui, and ordered the Yanfu guards to command Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng to lead troops to attack Beiping Jiu at night. Gate, and then occupied Beiping. Later, it was said in the "Huang Ming Ancestor Instructions" that "there is no honest minister in the court, and there is treachery in the court, the army must be raised to punish it, so as to eliminate the evil on the emperor's side." "For the reason, he swore to go out with [-] people to fight, claiming to "kill the treacherous officials Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng" to bring peace to the country. It was called the "Battle of Jingnan" in history."

"Then...did the Fourth Brother win in the end?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked eagerly. He didn't want anything to happen to the Fourth Brother.

"Emperor Jianwen replaced Geng Bingwen and appointed Li Jinglong as the commander-in-chief. He combined [-] troops to fight against Zhu Di." Li Qing said this, clapped his thigh and said happily: "Then Li Jinglong is really a young man who likes to kill people on the battlefield. He has successively Defeated the imperial army at Zhengcunba and Baigou River."

"At this time, Zhu Di, who defeated the imperial army, also felt that he had reached a crossroads in his life." Li Qing said with a smile: "In June of the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di was as strong as a broken bamboo. The kings of the valley, Zhu Lu and Li Jinglong, opened the Jinchuan gate to surrender to Yan. .At the same time, a fire broke out in the palace, and Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen disappeared."

"On June [-], Zhu Di paid a visit to Xiaoling Mausoleum. He ascended the throne of emperor in the Fengtian Hall of Yingtian Mansion. He was named Yongle and became Emperor Taizongwen of the Ming Dynasty."

"Okay!" Zhu Biao was the first to applaud: "Fourth brother did a great job! Is an unfaithful and unfilial person like Zhu Yunwen worthy of being an emperor?!"

"Indeed, his death was greater than all the contributions he made in his life." Li Qing winked and said with a smile: "It is simply unsightly that he used those few sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks. That Fang Xiaoru even advocated returning to China. The well-field system of the Zhou Dynasty..."

Li Shimin, who had listened to Li Qing's lectures for a long time, certainly knew the principles of productivity and production relations. He couldn't laugh or cry at Fang Xiaoru's idea of ​​reversing the course of history.

"Dear brother! Since you can travel through time and space! Can you take us to the Jianwen period!" Zhu Yuanzhang roared through gritted teeth: "If we don't skin Zhu Yunwen today, our Zhu characters will be written backwards!"
