The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 499 Lan Yu’s “groundless accusation”

[In February 1393, Jinyiwei commander Jiang Li reported Lan Yu for treason]

[It is said that he colluded with Jingchuan Marquis Cao Zhen and other dukes and tried to launch a mutiny when the emperor went to the suburbs to hold the "borrowing land" ceremony.]

[The last of the four major cases in Hongwu, the Lan Yu case, finally began. ]

……

Ming dynasty.

Old Zhu's head looked like it was hit by a pig during the Chinese New Year.

It's not just him.

Empress Ma and Zhu Biao also seemed to be pushed.

Zhu Biao came to see his mother and to persuade his father not to get involved.

I didn’t expect the melon to fall from the sky!

You said that Lan Yu was causing trouble because of Thaksin, this man is indeed arrogant.

You said he rebelled?!
It’s not that he looks down on his daughter-in-law’s uncle.

He really doesn't have the brains!
He doesn't have the foundation!
The mother and daughter looked at Zhu Yuanzhang at the same time.

Queen Ma said worriedly:

"Zhongba, shall I ask the imperial physician to take a look at you? You..."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned purple with anger.

"I'm not sick! Why do I need to see a doctor?"

"Maybe this kid is in trouble!"

"Look! We can't be wrong!"

……

[Lan Yu was the brother-in-law of Chang Yuchun, a founding hero, and was originally under Chang Yuchun’s command]

[Because of his bravery in battle and his success in every battle, he was promoted to the commander of Wude Guard.]

[In 1378, he was granted the title of Marquis of Yongchang for his meritorious service in the expeditions to Gansu and Qinghai.]

[In 1381, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Fu Youde as the General of the Southern Expedition, Lan Yu as the Left Deputy General, and Mu Ying as the Right Deputy General, and led infantry and cavalry to conquer Yunnan, where they won a great victory]

【Lan Yu was also appreciated by Zhu Yuanzhang from then on】

[In 1387, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Feng Sheng as the general, and Fu Youde and Lan Yu as the left and right deputy generals, and led an army of to march north]

[Lan Yu led his light cavalry to launch a surprise attack in the heavy snow and won a victory, causing the Yuan general Nahachu to surrender to the Ming.]

……

On the canopy.

A burly general was running wildly across the lush green grassland!
He has a thick mustache and a rough appearance.

His eyes always flashed with a sneering light, showing his complete cynicism.

Behind him was an army of more than a thousand soldiers with swords and spears.

"Brothers! Now is the time to achieve success!"

"Come with me! Sweep across Beiyuan!"

"Seal the wolf to live in Xu!"

The riders behind him howled with excitement.

Not far away, the Mongolian royal court is clearly visible.

……

[In 1388 AD, Lan Yu became a general who could take charge of everything. He led his army to launch a surprise attack on Emperor Toghon Temur of the Northern Yuan Dynasty at Buyur Lake (now Lake Buir).]

[The Yuan army underestimated the enemy and did not expect the sudden arrival of the Ming army, resulting in heavy casualties in a hurry]

[Only Emperor Yuan Toghon Temur, Crown Prince Tianbaonu and dozens of others fled north.]

[Lan Yu captured Emperor Yuan's second son Dibaonu, his concubines, princesses, and tens of thousands of others]

[There were also a large number of livestock, as well as the Northern Yuan Dynasty's imperial seal, precious jade, gold and silver seals, and other items. ]

【After a great victory, Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed and conferred the title of Duke of Liang on Lan Yu. 】

……

Big man.

Liu Bang looked up at the sky and his expression darkened.

Poor parents in the world...Liu Che doesn't count.

Old Zhu must be making plans for his son.

What a pity for such a great general.

This kind of general is much rarer than those sour Confucian scholars.

"Your Majesty, will you come down?"

Liu Bang was lost in thought.

The little eunuch under his feet could hardly hold on any longer.

Liu Bang, whose thoughts were interrupted, leaned against the wall and glared at the ground below.

"Why are you so weak?"

"Hold on! I'm shouting a few more times."

Then he climbed onto the wall and shouted into the courtyard:
"Zhang Liang! Zifang!"

"Naigong is here to see you!"

"Stop pretending you're not home!"

"Open the door!"

"If you don't wait for me to climb over the wall, you'll be in big trouble!"

After a few breaths.

A long sigh filled with helplessness and sadness came from the courtyard.

"I am here..."

……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
"Your achievements are so great that they threaten your master?"

Li Yuan judged based on his own experience.

"That's not right either."

"No matter how high your achievements are, they can't be higher than Zhu Yuanzhang's?"

"Swine fever?"

"Well, he is indeed not normal."

The two brothers opposite looked at Aye who was mumbling in the bed.

A look of helplessness.

……

[Just when Lan Yu was feeling very proud.] [The Imperial Guard reported to the emperor that Lan Yu had taken the treasures, camels and horses that he had plundered, and had taken the Emperor Yuan's concubines for himself.]

[Zhu Yuanzhang was furious when he learned of this: "Lan Yu is so rude, how can a great general behave like this!"]

[However, Lan Yu did not know how to restrain himself. After returning from the northern expedition, when he arrived at Xifeng Pass at night, he allowed his troops to break into the pass before the customs officials opened the gate in time.]

[This made Zhu Yuanzhang even angrier.]

……

Cao Wei.

"You are really courting death."

Doesn’t Cao Cao know that this guy only has muscles but no brains?
The concubines of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were of great political significance.

To put it bluntly, you are trying to steal the emperor's woman.

"Wine and sex can lead to misleading people..."

He thought of Zixiu.

……

Ji Han.

Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others were half-believing and half-doubting.

This behavior is really stupid!

Moreover, they always felt something was strange.

“It’s a little too methodical.”

“It’s a bit too detailed.”

……

[After the Imperial Guards report Lan Yu's treason.]

Zhu Yuanzhang quickly arrested Lan Yu on charges of treason, and imprisoned and interrogated him severely at lightning speed.

[Finally, a long confession was extracted from Lan Yu, and the book was written into "Records of Traitors"]

[The book records the crimes of treason committed by 15,000 people.]

[None of the 15,000 people who were Lan Yu's accomplices were spared and all were killed.]

[The meritorious officials and veteran generals during the Hongwu period were almost wiped out by the Lan Yu case.]

【Zhu Yuanzhang softened his heart a little because he thought that Lan Yu and he were related by marriage, and changed the death penalty from lingchi to skinning.】

[This human skin was given to Lan Yu's daughter, Princess Shu, as a souvenir]

[When Lan Yu was executed, the King of Shu was also summoned by Zhu Yuanzhang to Nanjing to "enter the court to express his gratitude"]

……

{Lan Yu: Do you want me to thank you?}
{In fact, this "Record of Traitors" collected the confessions of nearly a thousand people, but the only ones missing were those of Lan Yu and Cao Zhen.}

{This means that the two main culprits do not admit to treason at all?}
{Yes! And let's try to think about it from Lan Yu's perspective. Although he made countless contributions, his military foundation was really not strong.}
{And this plan can’t be called a joke, but it must be said to be a joke.}
{Without adequate planning and preparation, how can you possibly rebel? Rebellion is no joke.}
{If it is said that Lan Yu died because of his own disregard for the law and arrogance, it would not be worth it for Zhu Yuanzhang to start a war and kill tens of thousands of court officials.}
{The scheming frog keeps touching your belly! There is only one truth!}

{That’s right, it’s to clear the obstacles for Zhu Yunwen!}
……

Song Dynasty (Gaozong timeline: Xiaozong ascended the throne early)

Yue Fei thought of the past that he didn't want to recall.

"There's no need to blame someone if you want to."

"Generally speaking... it's probably groundless..."

……

Ming dynasty.

There was deathly silence in the palace.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the three words "Zhu Yunwen", his heart skipped a beat.

Strange name.

What does this mean?
The crown prince is not Zhu Biao.

The prince was deposed?
Even if I am disabled, the standard will never be disabled!

Then there is only one possibility...

Old Zhu held Zhu Biao's hand tremblingly.

"Son... don't be afraid... Daddy is here..."

Zhu Biao looked at his father with a look of shock on his face.

I felt an indescribable pain in my heart.

"Dad, don't be afraid."

"My mother and I are here."

……

Ming Dynasty - Jianwen Period
"If Dad were still alive..."

Zhu Yunwen looked at the battle report from the front with a pale face.

"How dare the traitor do this..."

……

Ming Dynasty Yongle Period
Zhu Di sighed.

"Brother, I admit it."

"That bastard didn't even consider us as his own!"

"Dad, you really got the wrong person!"

……

[Historical books comment on Zhu Yuanzhang's indiscriminate killing of innocent people and his cruelty and violence]

【But killing many of Zhu Yuanzhang's meritorious officials was not Zhu Yuanzhang's original intention.】

[On the contrary, Zhu Yuanzhang killed civil officials at will, and his mood was high.]

【Therefore, the Hongwu period became a hell for civil officials.】

【However, Zhu Yuanzhang was unusually tolerant and gentle towards his meritorious officials. 】

[Even after Hu Weiyong was killed, he further expanded his marriage relationship with the founding generals to stabilize the emotions of the meritorious officials.]

[He personally appointed the second daughter of Xu Da, Duke of Wei, as the Princess of Dai and the third daughter as the Princess of An]

[The eldest and second daughters of Duke Xin Tang He were the Princesses of Lu. ]

[The princess was married to the son of a meritorious official.]

[As long as you behave cautiously and modestly, you can protect yourself under Zhu Yuanzhang's rule]

【But a piece of news on April 1392, the th year of Hongwu ().】

【Break it all.】

[Zhu Biao, the crown prince whom Zhu Yuanzhang had trained for more than 20 years, unfortunately died of illness at the age of 38.]

【He was posthumously named Prince Yiwen.】
