Chapter 37 Queen Sun

Zhu Zhanji knelt down and said, "My son, I would like to be taught."

Empress Zhang looked at it for a while and said: "This demon queen's mother is going to die. You should go and apologize to the child of the Hu family. If she is willing to be the queen, then you can reset her. If she is not willing, let her go." without?"

"My son obeys the decree." Although Zhu Zhanji was the emperor, he was still the well-behaved son in front of his mother.

Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Zhanji, sighed, and said, "Go to the Ancestral Temple and kneel down. After talking about Sun, go and see Qi Yu. You have to remember that you are a father and he is your biological son."

"My son, I obey the order." Zhu Zhanji nodded obediently.

Empress Zhang drove Zhu Zhanji away and said to the eunuch, "Give him death."

The eunuch agreed, and Queen Zhang looked helplessly at the trembling Zhu Qizhen. It was still unbearable for her to take action against a child. But she is the Queen Mother and cannot be soft-hearted.

She didn't look at Zhu Qizhen, but said: "Imprisoned in Nangong, just be a wealthy idler in this life, and you will be dead to the outside world."

Zhu Qizhen kept crying. Empress Zhang looked at him. She obviously looked like Zhu Zhanji, but she just couldn't feel pity for him.

Is it really his son's biological cub? His son doesn't seem to be a fool, he was quite clever when he was a child.

But Zhu Qizhen looks very similar to Zhu Zhanji, and Empress Sun has no sense of involvement at all. Empress Zhang couldn't deceive herself that this was not her grandson.

Zhu Qizhen: QAQ.

Su Yue continued: "Come on, the next one is Empress Sun's achievement."

In the early Ming Dynasty, there were "civil engineering changes" and "gate seizing changes" that shocked the government and the public. Empress Sun used her rich political experience and irreplaceable dignity as the empress dowager to turn the tide and control the two "changes" and play an important role in maintaining the rule of the Ming Dynasty. and national stability.

In August of the 1449th year of Zhengtong (), elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and important ministers from various ministries and departments of the Ming Dynasty were besieged and annihilated by the Oala cavalry in Tumubao. The young emperor Zhu Qizhen, who led the army in person, was captured and held hostage to continue to plunder the Ming Dynasty. In the important town in the north, the capital was in emergency, and the Ming Dynasty fell into an unprecedented crisis.

After a brief period of chaos, Queen Mother Sun decisively abandoned the idea of ​​some courtiers to flee south, adopted the opinions of Yu Qian, the Minister of War, and other main war factions, and successively adopted the policy of letting the emperor's younger brother Zhu Qiyu ascend the throne as Emperor Jingtai, and respecting Zhu Qizhen as the Supreme Emperor. , made Zhu Qizhen's son Zhu Jianshen the prince, actively mobilized troops and generals to stick to BJ, and a series of correct decisions, finally resolved the crisis.

After repelling the Wala attack, Emperor Jingtai clung to the throne and placed the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen under house arrest, who was sent back to Beijing. He deposed the crown prince Zhu Jianshen established by the Empress Dowager Sun and made his own son the crown prince instead.

As the "sage empress dowager", Empress Dowager Sun allowed Emperor Jingtai to depose and establish the prince, and carefully protected the imprisoned emperor Zhu Qizhen and the deposed young prince Zhu Jianshen, maintaining the overall political stability of the Ming Dynasty and watching the changes of the times.

Emperor Jingtai had a difficult life. His son and his wife, Queen Hang, died one after another, and he had no heirs. In the first month of the eighth year of Jingtai (1457), when Emperor Jingtai was seriously ill and stubbornly refused the courtiers' proposal to re-establish the crown prince, and the Ming Dynasty throne faced a crisis of succession, the Empress Dowager Sun clearly supported some courtiers in implementing the "Change of Seizing the Gate". Supporting the restoration of the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen as the royal heir, thus eliminating another political crisis in the Ming Dynasty.

In the "History of the Ming Dynasty", "Shi Heng plotted to seize the door, secretly revealed it to the Queen Mother, and promised it", which fully explains the role of Queen Mother Sun.

Not allowed to grow old in the world: Is this surely an achievement and not a crime?

I send my thoughts to Mingyue: Yes, the change of seizing the door is not a good thing.

goin: That’s right, compared to her mother-in-law, Empress Sun is really a little woman.

care: Empress Zhang is the prototype of the heroine in "Prince Concubine's Promotion". How could she be compared to this kind of demon queen who needs magical transformation to be cleansed? They are not allowed to grow old on earth: it’s a pity that we don’t even know their names.

I send my thoughts to the bright moon: Yes, the queens of the Qin and Han Dynasties all had names after all. For example, Lu Pheasant and Wei Zifu not only have names but are also very famous.

I send my love and the bright moon: But in the early Ming Dynasty, so many outstanding queens only left their surnames, and they didn’t even know their names.

goin: This is really a pity.

care: Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty: Imperial concubine Sun, the emperor Taizong chose me as his concubine. For more than ten years, his virtue and righteousness have been outstanding in the harem. Zhu Zhanji is so blind.

Fuling: That’s right.

……

Su Yue continued: "Some people may reject the next part, but history is history. Please watch it rationally."

"History of the Ming Dynasty: The First Biography of the Concubine" records: The concubine also had no children, so she took the son of the palace man as her own son, that is, the Yingzong. That is to say, the Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen was not actually born to Empress Sun.

Empress Xiaogongzhang's Sun family lived through the Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande, Zhengtong, Jingtai, and Tianshun dynasties. As the queen of the Xuande dynasty, the empress dowager of the Zhengtong, Jingtai, and Tianshun dynasties, and the main caregiver of Emperor Chenghua (Zhu Jianshen), the Qing Dynasty compiled the history of the Ming Dynasty. There are many slanders.

According to the fact that Emperor Xuande was nearly thirty years old and had no prince at that time, everyone in the palace was concerned about who would give birth to the first prince, and the Queen Mother Zhang was still alive at that time.

Empress Sun was just a concubine at the time, and it was impossible to control the sky with one hand. It was almost impossible at that time to pretend that she was pregnant and control the palace maid who was really pregnant.

First of all, Concubine Sun had to hide it from the emperor within ten months, and then she had to hide it from Queen Mother Zhang on the day of delivery. These two points were very difficult to achieve, and for the concubine who had undoubtedly won the emperor's special favor and had given birth. It seems that Concubine Sun, whose daughter is Princess Changde, will not take this strategy regardless of the future of her possible biological son in the future.

Moreover, there are many people involved in this matter, and it is impossible to bribe all the people involved in this matter. Therefore, the theory of Empress Dowager Sun stealing his son is not valid.

Don’t let the world grow old: As long as we conduct a calm analysis, we can judge that the statement about Sun’s seizure of the son is also difficult to withstand scrutiny and cross-examination. This should be some conjecture and attachment made by later generations to sympathize with Queen Hu.

I send my thoughts to the bright moon: That is, Zhu Zhanji is just a lover, not a fool. How can he not know whether the child looks like him?
goin: Yes, yes, it is not possible for everyone to confuse the royal bloodline.

care: Just like Liu E, they say the civet cat is replaced by the prince, but how many emperors are fools like Hu Hai?

……

Qin Dynasty
Ying Zheng wants to run away now, really. Why mention Hu Hai? He didn't know if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty doubted whether his son was his biological son. Anyway, he doubted it.

However, he doesn't care what Hu Hai looks like, as long as his Fusu is his own.

Qin Shihuang didn't know that he was already approaching Zhu Yuanzhang crazily, preferring to smash his eldest son.
