Chapter 2: Lin Hanyu's choice (ask for recommendation votes and collections)

In the early years of Yongle, the Ming Dynasty lost the fertile land of Guanxi and Hetao;

In the third year of Xuande, under the flickering of Wenchen, the Ming Dynasty gave up the rice that could be harvested three times a year;

In the second year of the Apocalypse, the Great War of Guangning and my Ming Dynasty were defeated by the Houjin, retreated to Shanhaiguan, and the entire territory of the Northeast was lost.

The population has skyrocketed, the land has decreased sharply, and the per capita amount of cultivated land in the Ming Dynasty is naturally pitiful.

"The poor have no place to stand, and the rich have no land", this is by no means an exaggerated adjective in this world, but an undoubted fact, and even exceeding.

To this day, Da Ming is like a terminally ill person, so that Zhu Youzhen, who has not received an imperial education at all and is longer than the hands of a woman in the deep palace, is unable to fight at all.

Unless one of them, such as Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who are recognized as the first emperor in history, come here, there is a glimmer of hope.

And it's not enough to be a Ming Jun, there must be a virtuous minister!

That is, the ministers under the Ming monarch must be: Guan Zhong, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Fang Xuanling and other virtuous ministers.

The generals must be: Meng Tian, Zhou Yafu, Huo Quzhi, Zu Di and other generals.

If only one of the conditions is met, it is just a headache doctor, and it is useless to treat foot diseases, and Daming will live for a few more decades at most.

Lin Hanyu also knew that Daming's accumulation was difficult to return, so he refused to become Zhu Youzhen, and always refused to accept the reality.

However, in this muddy month, Lin Hanyu occupied the soul of Zhu Youzhen in this body.

I always think of the bits and pieces that happened in this world, and watched the Ming Dynasty in my hands gradually perish, but I could only watch weakly!

What's that like?

It was a kind of heart-wrenching pain, it was a kind of hatred of the country, and it was a shame of the Chinese nation!

This monstrous hatred is always entwined in Lin Hanyu's ears, lingering and unforgettable.

At the same time, Lin Hanyu often dreamed at night that when he was a young man, he was carefree in the shade of his brother and sister-in-law, until his brother died.

The young man took over thousands of miles from his brother, and since then he has been eating and drinking, day and night, and has given birth to gorgeous hair early, wrinkled like a ravine.

But even if he has been conscientious and diligent for 17 years, the young man has become middle-aged, but he still can't recover the fate of the collapse of the dynasty and the destruction of the family.

How many times have you dreamed back at midnight, how many times have you woken up with tears and wet the pillow towel, how can you let the Qing Demon Clan enter the Central Plains!

From now on, I, Lin Hanyu, will be Zhu Youzhen, the thousands of miles left by my ancestors, and the safety of hundreds of millions of people in the Central Plains, I will bear it by myself!"

A month later, on the afternoon of August 11, the Emperor of the Apocalypse, who was already terminally ill, urgently recruited King Xin into the palace, whether it was because of the failure to break through the Spirit King Realm two years ago or because he had taken the wrong tonic, in short, the young Son of Heaven knew that his life was not long in coming.

The Spirit King Realm is a major barrier for monks, and it is also a pass of life and death, I don't know how many cultivators have died at the breakthrough threshold, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse is just one of them.

Although he is a descendant of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, this kind of thing obviously needs him to go alone, but he is a little easier than others.

Zhu Youzhen walked with the angel priest and eunuch Wang Tiqian, who came in a hurry, and came to the Forbidden City, the center of the Ming Dynasty.

After getting off the sedan chair, Zhu Youzhen, under the leadership of two palace people, entered the emperor's bedroom.

As soon as he stepped into the door, Zhu Youzhen smelled the strong smell of thousand-year-old elixir ginseng soup in the room, and his heart was shocked.

Counting the time, I immediately understood that Zhu Youxiao, the imperial brother who had depended on him since he was a child, was about to come to an end in his life.

At this time, a woman in palace clothes in the house who was a little more colorful than Princess Xin was taking care of the Emperor of the Apocalypse on the bed, and this woman was Empress Zhang.

Empress Zhang has always taken good care of Zhu Youzhen, and Zhu Youzhen said respectfully: "Imperial sister-in-law." Empress Zhang nodded at Zhu You, and whispered a few words in the ear of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Lying on the bed, the Emperor of the Apocalypse, whose originally sick face was filled with life, heard that Zhu Youzhen was coming, as if he was returning to the light, his face actually returned a little red, he forced a breath and said, "Is my brother here?"

"Yes, the courtiers came to visit the emperor. Looking at the Emperor of the Apocalypse, who had little time to do, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but think of the picture of the two of them relying on each other, and couldn't help but feel sad and shed two lines of tears.

Although Tianqi and Zhu Youzhen are only half-brothers, their biological mothers Wang Cairen and Lady Liu were beaten to death by the favored concubines Li Xuanzhi and Zhu Changluo respectively.

Especially Zhu Youzhen, his biological mother Liu Shunu was beaten to death by his father Zhu Changluo, and his father naturally looked down on Zhu Youzhen in every way.

Fortunately, the older brother Zhu Youxiao has always cared for him, and Zhu Youzhen can grow up smoothly.

In the haze, the Emperor of the Apocalypse saw that his younger brother had grown up, standing in front of him, his face couldn't help but show a little relief, and motioned to his attendant to move a stool for his younger brother and sit closer.

The attendants who could get to the Emperor of the Apocalypse were naturally not short of shrewdness, and soon moved a small stool, but no matter where Zhu Youzhen sits, the Apocalypse was not very satisfied, and it was not until Zhu Youzhen came to the sickbed regardless of etiquette that he showed a satisfied smile.

"Civil officials can't be trusted, don't listen to their nonsense. "With the satisfaction that my family has a younger brother who has just grown up, the Emperor of the Apocalypse has a strong spirit, and he admonished word by word.

Hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, Zhu Youzhen's face couldn't help but feel hot, ashamed, and even more admired Zhu Youxiao.

It is true that Zhu Youzhen was the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the history of time and space, but in the evaluation of the history books, Zhu Youzhen is still above his brother Emperor Tianqi.

However, the apocalypse who favored Wei Zhongxian and was falsely accused in the history books of not doing his job, although he also faced internal and external troubles, he always controlled the overall situation and did not let the crumbling Ming slide into a deeper abyss.

On the other hand, Zhu Youzhen, who has received a good evaluation in the history books, although he has done his best, is diligent and far-reaching.

Since Chongzhen ascended the throne, the rooster crows every day, sleepless at night, becomes ill from hard work, is diligent and thrifty, and there is no feast in the palace.

But the result is that there are many mistakes and mistakes, so that they lose the Ming Dynasty and then hang themselves on the southeast branch.

The reason for this result is precisely because Zhu Youzhen never took Emperor Tianqi's heartfelt sentence "civil officials are not credible" to heart, and mistakenly believed the civil officials.

When Li Zicheng broke through the capital, the civil officials rushed to eat pot pulp to welcome the king, and Zhu Youzhen lamented with grief and indignation, "Everyone can kill Wenchen", heh, what a painful realization!

"Minister, I know!" is different from the historical "hehe" reaction, Zhu Youzhen was extremely sincere when he said this.
