Chapter 24 There are new discoveries

While Qin Tai was still reminiscing about Liu Ji's words, Zhan Xiaoxiao made a new discovery. On the side of Koike, she found a small stone box, and inside the stone box was a piece of brocade. There are a lot of words on the brocade, and Zhan Xiaoxiao read it.

"God bless me, don't fake me with the time of the day. If you give me another fifty years, why worry about the immortality of Beimeng? Why worry about the country without a successor? I want my parents to die when I was a child, and I have been supporting myself since I was a child. He has been a monk, a beggar, a cow, and a beggar's food. In order to survive, in order to be able to build my own territory and country, I can sacrifice everything. In my life, the only thing that has been best to me is my bigfoot wife, Ma Xiuying. It's a pity that God took her away early, and even my eldest son Zhu Biao left me prematurely. Some people say that I am cruel and unkind, some people say that I should not be the emperor, and some people want to make my food and take away my world. But I'm not worried at all, I'll be good if I have the ability. Whoever dares to speak ill of me, I will cut out their tongues; Those who dare to scold me, I want them to live without heads; Those who dare to rebel, I want their family to know what it means to never turn over; I want them to know what life is better than death, and what it means to regret it. I want them to know what happened to me. Their children will always be lowly eunuchs for men, and prostitutes for women. What good brothers, all some ungrateful guys. Only my old brother Chang Yuchun is the most loyal to me. The others are self-reliant or insatiable creatures, don't they know what they are? A group of gangsters, little hooligans, can be high-ranking officials and are not satisfied, do you want me to give them all my country? For the sake of my children and grandchildren, for the sake of the world, I will kill all these unrighteous people. Even my nephew Li Zhong is not a good person, I heard that he has more than 80 wives and is a groom almost every day. I, the emperor's uncle, only have more than 30 wives, and he dares to ask for so many women. Every time he came to Beijing, Li Zhong always pretended to be poor, and when he returned to his fiefdom, he would eat a lot of fish. He thought I didn't know, and he thought I was deaf, blind, and stupid. I took matters into my own hands and sent him to see his son and wife. I can't blame all of Xu Da's affairs, I just want him to lie in bed for a few more years, but I didn't expect him to ask for his own life, and the basin was buckled on my head, everyone thought that I wanted Xu Da's life. Even Liu Ji lied to me, saying that he would build a secret base for me, but he left after he did it. Am I really a bad person? Am I really going to kill Liu Ji? I just want to keep him here and let him take care of this treasure for me and for my children and grandchildren. Why can't he think so? Didn't he force me to hunt him down? ”

It turned out that this was written by Zhu Yuanzhang himself, and it is estimated that few people have seen it. This emperor doesn't have much literary background, but a man who says whatever he wants. At least from this point of view, there are many things that are not what everyone thinks, and he has to do it as a last resort. Some things about Liu Jike are also different.

Qin Tai listened to Zhanxiao's words while fiddling with the jewelry casually. In this pile of jewelry, a wax-sealed box was found. The method of sealing with wax to preserve some important calligraphy, paintings or letters was very popular in ancient China. As long as the seal is good, it will be effective even in the past thousand years. Legend has it that China's first realistic painting "The Great War Map" was preserved in this way. Legend has it that Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, the founder of the Chinese nation, once used an animal skin to paint the scene of his battle with the demon king Chiyou. The animal skins in this painting, as well as a lot of pigment materials, are gone, and this painting is a peerless masterpiece. After King Wen of Zhou in the Western Zhou Dynasty got this ancient painting, he personally sealed it with wax and handed it over to his son King Wu of Zhou, which was passed down as an heirloom of his family. It's a pity that after thousands of years of war, no one knows what's inside. The emperor at that time, Tang Taizong Li Shimin, accidentally got this painting and asked someone to open it in public. This thousand-year-old painting was reproduced and became a major event at the time. It's a pity that this peerless ancient painting was given to Yang Yuhuan, the princess of Shou, as a gift by Tang Xuanzong Li Longji to please Yang Yuhuan, who was still his daughter-in-law at the time. When Yang Yuhuan entered the palace and became the imperial concubine, this priceless ancient painting disappeared. Since then, the whereabouts of this No. 1 painting have not been known. Some people say that Yang Yuhuan gave the painting to his brother Yang Zhao, that is, Yang Guozhong, who later brought disaster to the country and the people. When Yang Guozhong was hacked and killed by the rebels, the painting was also destroyed. Some people also say that this ancient painting was privately hidden by Yang Yuhuan and later brought to Japan. Some people even say that this ancient painting has already been sold to Yang Yuhuan, otherwise it would have been so much money from the family to buy land and buy a house.

Seeing this sealed box, Qin Tai immediately became interested. He said to Zhan Xiaoxiao: "Do you have a knife? Lend me a favor. Hurry up, I'm in a hurry. ”

Zhan Xiaoxiao glanced at Qin Tai, and slowly took out a small silver knife with a simple style from his arms.

Qin Tai immediately took it, and while following the texture of the box, he cut the wax seal on it. While saying, "Xiaoxiao, your knife is very beautiful." Is it your family's ancestral? ”

Zhan Xiaoxiao blushed and whispered, "This knife is my ancestor." It's the fourteenth generation of my generation. My mother gave it to me with her own hands, and I want to keep it safe. She was only halfway there, and the origin of this knife was not ordinary. This knife is called "chaste knife", and it is a family heirloom that has been passed down by the Zhan family for more than ten generations. According to Zhan Xiaoxiao's mother, Zhan Xiaoxiao told Zhan Xiaoxiao that the Zhan family was a big family when they were in Datang. At that time, one of the ancestors of the Zhan family married a noble lady who had come from Japan to study in China. This aristocratic lady is one of the best families in Japan, and every woman has a small silver knife, which is the "chastity knife". This knife was made for the girl by the girl's father himself when the girl first came to the sunflower. It means that girls use this knife to maintain their chastity. When a girl marries into her husband's family, this knife, which symbolizes the girl's chastity, is also sent to her husband's family. If the husband's family is sure that the girl is chaste, he will return the knife ceremoniously. This knife will become the "chastity knife" of the next girl in the girl's mother's family. If a girl has lost her virginity on her wedding night, she will end her life with this knife. The husband's family will return the girl to the girl's mother's house along with the knife, and the two families will never interact again. So this knife is very important for the girl's family. Zhan's mother said that there were three girls in the Zhan family who had not been out of the cabinet who had been attacked. When they couldn't escape, they all chose to end their lives with knives. There has never been an unchaste girl in the Zhan family. Give Zhan Xiaoxiao this knife, but also to Zhan Xiaoxiao remember.

Zhan Xiaoxiao: "Adult, if you like it, this knife will be given to adults." In fact, it took a lot of energy when she said this. Giving Qin Tai this knife is to hand over Zhan Xiaoxiao's own life to Qin Tai. Qin Tai will not show small words in the future, there is only a dead end for showing small things. Even if Qin Tai refuses at this time, Zhan Xiaoxiao will have no face to live again.

Fortunately, Qin Tai really likes this knife, and it is really suitable to use it to do some small things. For example, shaving beards, peeling toenails, it is absolutely convenient to have this knife. If Zhan Xiaoxiao knew Qin Tai's thoughts, he would definitely want back her small knife, which was regarded as a treasure. This knife was so badly ruined by Qin Tai, even if it was the previous generations of the Zhan family, the ancestors of the Zhan family would not let go of Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao.

Qin Tai opened the box, and inside was a diary and a holy decree. The diary is the last history of Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen in the Nanjing Imperial Palace and his experience here. The holy decree is the last holy decree issued by Emperor Jianwen.

In the diary, Emperor Jianwen scolded his fourth uncle Zhu Di for being a thief, a wolf in human skin. On the one hand, he also deeply blamed himself for not obeying the minister's words in everything, and offended almost all the relatives of his family. It was he who really became a lonely man and an emperor with no relatives.

When Zhu Di raised his army, Emperor Jianwen didn't take it seriously, and under the instigation of the minister, he thought that Zhu Di was looking for death by himself. Unexpectedly, Zhu Di only took one year to kill the north of the Yangtze River. The ministers of the court still boasted how powerful they were, and Zhu Di would die without a place to be buried. The murderous Zhu Yunjiao did not even have the last chance to resist, and everything was harmed by the arrogance and contempt of the Chinese officials of the DPRK. These civilian officials have no actual experience in leading troops, and they have not carefully observed the terrain. Not to mention the exclusion and suppression of those generals with actual combat experience, he also encouraged Emperor Jianwen to change generals on the spot, replacing a loyal and famous general with a useless general who can only shoot civilian officials. With the operational policy on paper and the front-line generals who can't fight, how can they not lose in such a war? Zhu Yunwen believed too much in his civilian officials, and the civilian officials paid too much attention to their own faces, concealed their mistakes regardless of the safety of the country, and described some defeats as great victories. In their eyes, their dignity and honor are more important than the Ming Dynasty. It wasn't until Zhu Di's army was killed in Nanjing that Zhu Yunwen knew that the general trend had gone. At this time, the civil officials still made a lot of excuses for their incompetence, what they mistrusted the guards, and what they were deceived by Zhu Di. What emperor gave them one last chance to make meritorious contributions. They must influence Zhu Di with the rites of a saint. What Nanjing is still blessed by the yin spirit of the ancestor emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di will not and cannot enter.

But everything is empty talk,. Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen didn't believe these nerds anymore, but Emperor Jianwen's three-year-old prince was forcibly retained by the civil officials. Poor was killed by Zhu Di, an uncle and grandfather, at a young age. Emperor Jianwen escaped from the palace through the secret passage and came to this Xiaoyue Village. But he didn't live here for long before he fled, because there was a Jinyiwei who came here with Zhu Yuanzhang and had already taken refuge in Zhu Di. It was no longer safe here, so Zhu Yunwen had no choice but to take people south again. Many years later, they returned here with Ma He, the eunuch who had been renamed Zheng He by Zhu Di. At that time, the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di's country had been consolidated, and Emperor Jianwen had no possibility of recovering his country, so Zheng He took it upon himself to leave Emperor Jianwen in Xiaoyue Village. Zhu Yunwen, who has been ravaged by the war, has no ambition as an emperor, nor does he have the pride of self-righteousness, he knows the suffering of the people, and he just wants the life of the people of the Ming Dynasty to be better. The Zhu family's country has become more stable.
