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

Chapter 664: Sun Chengzong's family is full of loyal heroes! But there is no posthumous title

{Qiangziling is located at the Great Wall pass east of Miyun, and the terrain is steep.}
{It took the Qing army three days and three nights to cross the fortress, and they did not encounter any resistance from the Ming Dynasty defenders during this period.}
{Because the Governor of Ji and Liao and the Minister of War Wu Aheng was holding a birthday banquet for the eunuch Deng Xizhao, the general Wu Guojun who was guarding Qiangziling, accepted the invitation of his immediate superior and threw the defense of the border wall out of his mind.}
{After receiving the alarm, they hastily went into battle, but were defeated at the first blow and fled to Miyun.}
{When Wu Ahheng received the news of the "Qing troops entering the country", he did not take it seriously and continued to drink hundreds of cups with Deng Xizhao at the banquet, hoping to wish him a long life.}
{By the time he was completely drunk, the Eight Banners cavalry had already arrived at Miyun, and this governor who loved wine and meat died in the chaos.}
……

Later Zhou Dynasty: Emperor Shizong's reign
Guo Rong couldn't understand why these people were so relaxed.

“It’s like peace in the world.”

Zhao Kuangyin, who was assisting in handling government affairs, pulled his head out of the desk and whispered:
“Because I have no ambition.”

"The emperor is unclear about rewards and punishments, and the generals on the border just muddle along."

"The scholars and officials at the top look down on those below."

"The soldiers and military households below are too lazy to listen to their superiors."

"In that case, let's just throw the broken jar away."

"It's not our kingdom, why bother taking it so seriously?"

Guo Rong still couldn't understand.

Maybe he was born in troubled times, so he couldn't understand the sense of comfort of these emperors in their last years?
"However, he called Lu, Hong, and Sun away."

"Wouldn't the ten-net strategy collapse on its own?"

……

[On October 2, the capital was under martial law. The emperor ordered the Liaodong vanguard general Zu Dashou to come to the rescue, and ordered the generals Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei under the Xuanda governor Lu Xiangsheng to defend Yizhou as the left wing, and transferred the Denglai Tianjin garrison as the right wing, and Shandong general Liu Zeqing to contain the vanguard. ]

[In order to unify the command of the various reinforcements, the emperor specially granted Lu Xiangsheng the Imperial Sword and authorized him to command the reinforcements from all over the country to defend the capital.]

……

On the canopy.

Sun Chengzong, wearing armor and covered in dirt, was tied to a chair.

He was guarded by two Qing soldiers.

A Qing army general strode in, carrying a man in his hand.

"Prime Minister Sun, the Ming Dynasty has run out of luck, and the Qing Dynasty is about to rise. How about submitting to our dynasty and becoming a founding hero with a share of land and a title of nobility?"

Sun Chengzong glanced at the Qing general and said coldly:
"You stinking slave, why don't you kill me quickly!"

The Qing general sighed and pushed the man with his hands tied behind his back to Sun Chengzong's feet.

"Don't you consider your children and grandchildren?"

Sun Chengzong remained calm:
"Grandson, do you think Grandpa should consider you?"

The man who was thrown to the ground tried to sit up straight, looked at the Qing army in the house, and turned to Sun Chengzong and said sadly:
"grandfather."

"My father, fourth uncle, and fifth uncle."

"Zhijie, Zhipang and others all died in the battle."

"Even my aunt and sister-in-law, no one begged for mercy!"

Sun Chengzong nodded and said to the Qing general:
"You filthy dog ​​slave, do you understand? This is my offspring!"

The man then kowtowed three times to Sun Chengzong, then stood up and said to the Qing general:

"It is enough for me to see Grandpa, but you can kill me now."

The Qing general said nothing and waved his hand.

Two Qing soldiers pulled him out, and then a head was thrown at Sun Chengzong's feet.

Sun Chengzong looked at the dirty head, straightened up and said:

"Kill me quickly."

……

[The Qing troops crossed Beijing in late October and headed for Zhuozhou from Liangxiang, advancing in three directions.]

[One route goes out of Yizhou via Laishui, one route goes out of Xiongxian via Xincheng, and one route goes out of Ansu via Dingxing, with the intention of besieging Baoding.]

[On the tenth day of the eleventh month, the Qing troops crossed Baoding and marched southwards, conquering Gaoyang.]

[Sun Chengzong, a university scholar who had made great contributions in defending against the Qing army, was already 76 years old. He retired and lived in Gaoyang City, leading his family to fight against the Qing army in the streets.]

[Before and after this, Sun Chengzong's five sons, six grandsons, eight nephews and more than 30 women and children were either killed in battle or captured and killed.]

[Only the six-year-old Sun Zhili, the son of Sun Ce, and his mother escaped by hiding in the bushes.]

【After being captured, Sun Chengzong refused to surrender and hanged himself. 】

……

{Then, Zhu Youjian, who once compared Sun Chengzong to "Kong Ming of the Han Dynasty and Pei Du of the Tang Dynasty", lamented after hearing the news that "Sun Chengzong's former service is hard to forget, and his death is even more righteous", and ordered relevant officials to provide preferential compensation. The powerful people such as Yang Sichang and Xue Guoguan captured him and only restored him to his original position and granted him a funeral, but did not give him a posthumous title.}
{The posthumous title "Wen Zhong" given to Sun by later generations was given by the Hongguang Emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty after the fall of the Ming Dynasty.}
{When it came to the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong remembered the many ministers who died for their masters in the late Ming Dynasty, and their righteousness and bravery were commendable. He also hoped to praise the loyal and good people and set an example for the future, so he wrote a book "The Imperial Records of Ministers Who Died for Their Lordship in the Victory Dynasty" and gave Sun Chengzong the posthumous title of "Zhongding".}
……

Yanhan·Mingdi period
Liu Zhuang felt that this emperor was really...

"That's a family of loyal heroes!"

No posthumous title?!

Still in power, I treat you like a slave!
You, the emperor, are the one with the greatest authority!
You are not a puppet emperor!
It is obvious who does not want to give this posthumous title!
"It's really... pathetic and deplorable, extremely hateful!"

……

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang held his forehead and closed his eyes.

"Have we violated the law of heaven?"

The emperors of the Qing Dynasty could give a posthumous title to the ministers of the previous dynasty. How could you, Chongzhen, be so stingy as not to give even a posthumous title?

Place great trust in someone but do not trust him.

Or is there endless resentment in your heart?

As for the Southern Ming...

Old Zhu felt tired again when he saw these two words.

No hope at all...

……

Ming Dynasty - Tianqi Period
Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath.

He decided to take good care of his health and have more children.

Anyway, no matter who you give this world to, it can’t be handed over to Lao Wu.

It’s so chilling… so chilling!

【At that time, Yang Sichang, the cabinet minister and the Minister of War, instructed Fang Yizao and Gao Qiqian to try to negotiate peace with the Qing army.】

【Lu Xiangsheng reprimanded Yang Sichang in person, saying that the alliance under the city walls was shameful in the Spring and Autumn Annals. If he made peace with the enemy now, "the people in Chang'an would be sharp-tongued, and how could he avoid the disaster of Yuan Chonghuan?"】

【Yang Sichang then asked him if he wanted to kill him with the Imperial Sword?】

[The relationship between the two broke down completely.]

[After this, Yang Sichang tried to trip up Lu Xiangsheng at every turn, and even assigned the elite Guanning Army to Gao Qiqian.]

[Lu Xiangsheng was nominally the governor of the reinforcements throughout the country, but in reality he could only lead 20,000 troops from Xuanfu and Datong.]

[In order to please the emperor, the cabinet chief Liu Yuliang volunteered to go out of the capital to inspect military intelligence in person.]

[When Chongzhen learned that the Qing army had broken through Gaoyang, he was overjoyed. He was worried about the enemy's advance, so he immediately approved it. He then issued an edict, severely blaming Lu Xiangsheng for being afraid of the enemy and avoiding fighting, which wasted his troops and brought back the Shangfang sword.]

[Liu Yuliang was just posturing and had no intention of commanding the war. When he heard that the emperor wanted him to act as governor, he was extremely terrified.]

【Yang Sichang quickly stepped forward to ease the situation.】

[Chongzhen rescinded the order, but stripped Lu Xiangsheng of his title of Minister of War and made him perform the duties of Governor-General as Vice Minister of War, thus making meritorious contributions while serving his sentence.]

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
A bronze cup flew into the sky and then fell down helplessly.

"You're just trying to make up for your crime!"

Liu Che was so angry!
"A mouse has teeth, but a man has no limits!"

"Even the Song Dynasty was not so shameless!"

"Who in this world dares to give their all?!"

……

Tang Xuanzong Period
Li Longji was happy.

"How could a king of a country treat you like this?"

Li Mi sighed and said:

"This is the greatest tragedy of the late Ming Dynasty."

"Because he can't trust anyone. In this respect he is very different from other late emperors."

"Just like what Tianmu said, his childhood experiences have left him with a great deal of insecurity."

“It’s a personality trait.”

"Just like your majesty after the horses were released to the southern hills."

Li Longji, who was laughing, suddenly stopped laughing.

……

Cao Wei and Emperor Wen's period
Cao Pi explained to young Cao Rui the abnormalities of Chongzhen, intending to establish a healthy view of being a monarch in young Cao Rui.

Because according to his observation, this kid will be somewhat extreme in the future.

"The Ming emperor held absolute power and had a huge eunuch system that he could use to supervise the ministers outside the court, which ensured that the emperor would not be threatened in any way."

"So the Wanli Emperor could go on strike and let the cabinet ministers run everything automatically, and the Tianqi Emperor could trust Wei Zhongxian so much."

"However, Emperor Chongzhen's attitude was contrary to that of ordinary people."

Speaking of this, Cao Pi couldn't help feeling a sense of absurdity.

"He was skeptical of things that others said had already happened, but he was often unreasonably optimistic about things that had not yet happened."

"So I don't spend a lot of time and effort to pay attention to the details when planning for the future."

"I believe it so easily, and then I start to doubt it once I use it..."

Cao Pi suppressed his speechless mood and said to Cao Rui:

“You must know that if you doubt someone, don’t employ him; if you employ someone, don’t doubt him.”

……

[Lu Xiangsheng was punished and became disheartened. He was deeply worried about the lack of soldiers and money and the difficulty of advancing. He was also severely reprimanded by the emperor:
The words I said the day before yesterday about daring to fight were just for fame and deceiving the public!

[Forcing Lu Xiangsheng to take a gamble.]
