Zongwu: Daming wrote a diary, Lao Zhu took concubines for me

Chapter 17

Daming Palace, Imperial Study.

At this time, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was a little tangled.

He'd been fiddling with the inky book for the past two days.

He had a deep suspicion that the book was broken

If it's not bad, then why did a question keep him waiting for so many days?

You must know that although the other party answered the previous question a little absurdly, the speed of reply is still relatively objective.

And this is the problem that worries him the most-

The other party has hung him alive for so many years.

Rao is calm-hearted old Zhu is also a little ugly at the moment.

His dignified Emperor Ming, the Ninety-Five Emperor, is there anything more important than answering his question?

Looking at the questions he left before, Zhu Yuanzhang let out a long sigh.

[How did the Ming Dynasty fall?].

Originally, he wanted to ask the second question!

He Zhu Yuanzhang expelled the Tartars, revived the Central Plains, and created an immortal dynasty, which even the fierce and barbaric Mengyuan people were afraid of.

It should have been more indestructible.

As a result, a huge country has become a short life and early death in the mouth of the diary owner!

This is really puzzling to him!

How short is a short life?

How early is it to die young?

Is it 500 years or 300 years or ...... Less than a hundred years?

If it's really that miserable-

Isn't it worse than Xia Shangzhou?

After he left, what did this kid Zhu Biao do?

Why did you toss our Daming like this?

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was anxious——

There was a vibration in the inky book.

...

[How did the Ming Dynasty fall?].

This question is obviously much easier to answer than the previous one.

Because it's objective.

But it's a little bit of thought.

There are many reasons for the demise of a country, and it is impossible to attribute it to one place.

It was the straw that broke the camel's back, yes.

But that's also the accumulation of countless straws!

After thinking about organizing the language slightly, Zhu Ming picked up his pen and began to answer.

[Emperor Hongwu was wise and martial, expelled the Tartars, restored the Central Plains, and made immortal achievements, making the Ming Dynasty the top dynasty in the world. 】

[But after his death, the Ming Dynasty lasted only more than two hundred years——].

[The Ming Dynasty collapsed!].

[The land of the Central Plains has once again fallen into the clutches of foreigners. 】

[Its rise is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden, which is embarrassing!].

[There are many factors in this, and it is not possible to judge one or two things. 】

[In my opinion, it can be summarized as follows. 】

[One].

[Emperor Hongwu quietly cultivated the crown prince Zhu Biao and died early. 】

[Let Emperor Hongwu be too eager to help Emperor Sun Zhu Yunwen ascend the throne. 】

[In order to remove obstacles for Zhu Yunwen, Emperor Hongwu in his later years wantonly killed the former princelings and founding heroes. 】

[As a result, there were no talents available in the Ming Dynasty after Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, and it also laid the groundwork for the civil strife in the later period. 】

Writing this, Zhu Ming couldn't help but think of his gentle and generous eldest brother Zhu Biao, and couldn't help but feel sorry for a while.

If it weren't for overwork, he would have died young-

He is indeed the perfect successor to the emperor's father.

Who is Zhu Biao?

That was the crown prince who was determined when the Ming Dynasty was founded!

He was named the prince of Wu at birth, and at the age of thirteen, he was named the prince of the Ming Dynasty.

That is the only heir selected by him Zhu Yuanzhang, who is the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

He had unprecedented hopes for it.

There is a saying that in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, there are only two sons.

One is Zhu Biao, and the other is the other.

Although this sentence is a bit excessive, the truth is not much different.

Zhu Biao's status in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart is indeed not comparable to other princes.

Since he was a child, Zhu Biao was taught the Four Books and Five Classics, benevolence, righteousness and etiquette by the great Confucian Song Lian, Liu Bowen, and Li Shanchang.

He was taught military integration by the Ming Changsheng general Chang 100,000 Chang Yuchun, the first military general of the Ming Dynasty Xu Da, Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and other military generals.

It can be said that he is proficient in all kinds of martial arts.

This is the appearance of the Holy King.

No matter who sees Zhu Biao, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, he will nod his head and praise, the holy monarch is angry, and the Ming Kingdom is fixed!

And Zhu Yuanzhang taught Zhu Biao how to govern the country and how to control the emperor's mind early.

It was even more important to let him supervise the country early and be familiar with government affairs.

It is for the future that Daming can prosper in the hands of Zhu Biao.

Since the tenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang has almost become a "hands-off shopkeeper".

Responsible for the operation of the entire Ming Dynasty, it was the crown prince Zhu Biao, until Zhu Biao died of illness, and Zhu Biao was the "second emperor" of the Ming Dynasty for almost fifteen years.

This also explains the question of whether later generations posthumously crowned Zhu Biao as the "Emperor Xiaokang" or not.

The answer, of course, is yes, and it is absolutely.

Zhu Biao, the eldest son of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.

In the eyes of the more traditional-minded emperor's father, Zhu Biao is his heir to all his lives and his favorite son.

So Zhu Biao was named the son of Zhu Yuanzhang and King Wu, there was no suspense, even if the other brothers were also excellent, but they couldn't compare to Zhu Biao's favor.

At this time, seeing the answer on the ink-colored book, Zhu Yuanzhang was like a thunderbolt from the sky.

At this moment, the wind stopped and the rain fell silent.

Zhu Yuanzhang's mind went blank.

In the imperial study, there was a dead silence.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat slumped in his chair, his face changing.

His expression was a little bitter and a little helpless.

He muttered to himself.

"The Crown Prince... Zhu Biao... Early death?".

At this moment, there was no Emperor Hongwu in the imperial study

There is only one grieving father.

And the next content made him even more stunned.

"The successor... Zhu Yunwen?".

"It's... How is this possible? How can it be Yun Wen?".

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little incredulous, and his heart was messy.

"Where's Xiongying...... What about Xiongying?".

Standing up is not young, this is the ancestral training we set!

How could we let Xiongying not stand up and stand up for Yun Wei!

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"Unless... Unless something happens to Xiongying..."

Halfway through his mouth, Zhu Yuanzhang's pupils shrank sharply, and he looked at the ink-colored book on the table in disbelief.

He already had a vague answer in his mind.

Seeing the shocking words presented in this ink-colored book, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was stunned.

It turned out that he became the butcher of Zhu and slaughtered the founding of the country, but it turned out to be to clear the obstacles for Yun Wei to ascend the throne!

Lan Yu, the general who has been fighting with him for many years, was even more severely punished!

Ask yourself, will you lose your mind when you lose the crown prince Zhu Biao, and desperately push Yun Wei to the top position?

The answer is obviously yes!

Even if he is now in his heart, there is a nameless fire!

It's just a pity that those old brothers who used to work hard with themselves in the past!

To say that the most pitiful emperor is still Zhu Yuanzhang.

He lost his parents and brother at an early age.

Middle-aged widow and grandson.

Lost a son in old age!

There is no tragedy in the world than a white-haired person sending a black-haired person!

At this time, another question couldn't help but rise in his heart.

What happened after Zhu Yunwen took the throne?
