The fourteenth Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, Emperor Xianzong was mediocre
He continued to tell the story, and the walker returned to Huaguo Mountain. Press the falling clouds, open your eyes and watch, there are no flowers and plants on the mountain, the smoke and haze are gone, the peaks and rocks have collapsed, and the forest trees are scorched. This mountain was burned by the god Erlang, who led the seven brothers of Nameishan, to set fire to it.
Later, seven or eight little monkeys jumped out, surrounded and kowtowed, and wept and said, "Since the great saint captured the upper realm, we have been suffering from hunters, and it is really difficult to bear it! It's just a deep dive into the cave and a nest away. Hungry to steal grass before going to the slope, thirsty to the stream to suck the spring. At this time, the "Great Sage captured the upper realm" that the little monkey said should refer to the death of Zhu Yuanzhang in 1398. After that, until the civil engineering change in Zhu Qizhen in 1449, the Ming Dynasty army's operations were intermittent, and it was even more scarce during the Xuande and Orthodox years, and the ability of more than 100,000 large legions to cooperate in combat has not been practiced for many years. And the war in Mongolia was continuous, with foreign wars and internal strife. Although the Mongol losses were not small, and the total number of troops dropped from more than 200,000 in the Hongwu period to more than 100,000 in the Orthodox period, its combat effectiveness was always maintained, and even only strong but not weak. In the civil and engineering changes, the Ming Dynasty army of more than 200,000 was defeated by the people of Wara 8 or 90,000 (the initial soldiers were trapped in Tumubao was indeed the first to lead only more than 20,000 cavalry vanguard troops, and soon the follow-up troops (3-40,000) and the Arajun army (3-40,000) also surrounded and reinforced. There were also about 10,000 cavalry led by Tokhoff Buhua, cruising in the northeast of Beijing to lead the way. The total Mongol army of these three men was at least 100,000. As mentioned earlier, the Ming army's individual combat capability has declined sharply, but the large army is stronger than the rabble. From the mouth of the little monkey, it can also be learned that there has already been a big problem in the supply of military salaries for the Ming army, and there are many contradictions between the commanders of the border towns, even if the interior of a major town is also inseparable. The combat effectiveness of individual soldiers, the attack power of the group army, and the coordinated operation of the large army are all greatly behind, so the failure of the civil engineering change is inevitable, even if it is led by Yang Hong and Shi Heng, it will be defeated in the end, but it should be able to avoid the annihilation of the whole army.
Poor ah, after the first glimpse of the heavenly cliff, the Moore Rock Ear gradually grows, and this great sage has just returned sadly, and he has encountered a tragic thing. Caesar concluded that if the eyes of Rulai saw Sun Wukong, it was estimated that the monkey's ears would be at least four.
When the great sage (this great sage is not the previous great sage, it has been transferred from Zhu Qizhen to Zhu Qiyu, and at this time it was still the state of the king of Yu, that is to say, from mid-to-late August to early September in 1449) heard this, and became more and more miserable, so he asked, "How many of you still have on this mountain?" The group of monkeys said, "The old man and the small one, there are only a thousand." "At that time, there were more than 47,000 monkeys in Huaguo Mountain, and Erlang Bodhisattva burned most of them, and then half of them were starved. In the past two years, he has been robbed of half by some hunters, and he said that this hunter is hateful! He took those who were shot by arrows and poisoned, and those who were poisoned and killed, skinned and deboned, steamed in sauce, steamed in vinegar, fried in oil and salt, and eaten as a side meal. Or there are those who are caught in the net, and those who are detained, and take the work, and teach him to jump in circles and do plays, somersaults, erect dragonflies, and screen gongs and drums on the street, and do everything naughtily.
(In the Tumubao Rebellion of 1449, the 200,000 Ming troops, whether killed or captured, ended up in extreme tragic, as can be seen from the mouths of the monkeys.) There is also "half of the starvation", what does it mean, it is nothing more than saying that there were a large number of empty heads in the army of the Ming Dynasty in the Xuande and Orthodox years.
What's more, Lao Wu vaguely pointed out that the battle between Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng was tragic. Erlang God turned out to be "Erlang Bodhisattva"? It is just saying that Mr. Wu Chengen and Mr. Li Chunfang highly recognize Zhang Shicheng and do not judge heroes by success or failure. )
This can see Lao Wu's ambivalence about the local monkey play, on the one hand, he is willing to watch, and on the other hand, he laments for the group of monkeys. So why do you say this, the most important thing is that Lao Wu lamented the damage of the war to the people of Li and the tragedy of the civil war. Looking at this, you can think of the scene of Zhang Shicheng and Zhu Yuanzhang at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.
When I saw this, I understood that Erlang God must be alluding to Zhang Shicheng, the king of Wu, or Zhang Shixin and other brothers, which also shows that Lao Wu's views on Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng are quite complicated.
But what Mr. Wu Chengen really expressed his desire was that before the fifth day of September 1449, Zhu Qiyu (who was still the king of Yu at this time, in charge of supervising the affairs of the state) was facing a dangerous situation in which the generals were scattered and the army's morale was shaken, and Wara was about to invade Beijing. The past has happened, and it is too late to remember and learn from the pain, it depends on how Zhu Qiyu handles it.
Fortunately, there is still a dog-headed military advisor in the deacon, and the news is quite well-informed, and he also knows that the monkey went to the west to learn the scriptures (what "the west to learn the scriptures", the good thing is that it is implied that Zhu Qizhen is hunting in the north, in fact, he was captured by others). At this time, Marshal Maliu was still there, but General Bangba became Pemba. The original book reads, "The horse ran to Ba and heard the news, and hurriedly went out to kowtow to welcome (the great sage) into the cave." Why is this, is it a clerical error? Obviously not, looking at historical records, as of February 1457, Zhu Qiyu died.
Xu Da was the Duke of Wei, Xu Huizu (Xu Da's eldest son) was the lord, then Xu Qin (the son of Huizu), and then Xu Xianzong (the son of Xu Qin), Xu Xianzong's son died young, so Xu Xianzong's younger brother Xu Chengzong succeeded to the Duke of Wei.
Xu Da's youngest son Xu Zengshou was killed by Zhu Yunwen in 1402, and Zhu Di posthumously named him the Duke of Dingguo. Xu Zengshou's son Xu Jingchang was knighted in the second year of Yongle, Xu Jingchang's son Xu Xianzhong was knighted in the third year of orthodoxy, and Xu Xianzhong's son Xu Yongning was knighted in the sixth year of Jingtai.
Chang Yuchun was named the Duke of Hubei by Zhu Yuanzhang, and his son Chang Mao attacked the lord, Chang Mao had no children, so his younger brother Chang Sheng was renamed the founding prince, and was demoted to a concubine during the Yongle period, and Chang Sheng's son Chang Jizu was degraded to Yunnan when he was 7 years old.
Deng Yue is the Duke of Weiguo, and his son Deng Zhen first attacked the Duke of Weiguo, and then changed the title to the Duke of Shenguo, and then was implicated in the Hu Weiyong case and was killed, and the title was removed. Deng Zhen originally had no children, so he succeeded his younger brother Deng Ming's child as his heir Deng Yuan.
Tang He is the Duke of Xinguo, the eldest son Tang Ding is the lord, Tang Ding's son Tang Sheng and grandson Tang Wenyu died early and did not have time to inherit the title. When Tang Wenyu's son Tang Jie grew up, he asked for a knight. But Ming Yingzong thinks that your Tang family has not inherited the Duke of Xinguo for almost fifty years, and after the statute of limitations, the title of Duke of Xinguo of the Tang family will be exempted.
After Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, when he was honest in employing people, he planned to select generals from the descendants of meritorious heroes, and what could really be used was that in 1450, Xu Chengzong, the Duke of Wei, was in charge of the former military governor's office; Tang He's great-grandson Tang Yinyun was named a hundred households by Zhu Qiyu in July 1450, and was later promoted to a thousand households, but in the Tianshun period, he was dismissed by Zhu Qizhen as a citizen. In general, the meritorious descendants can't be counted on, and the leading ones have to be the new Shi Heng and the veteran Yang Hong. Regarding Yang Hong's father and son, there has always been quite a controversy. However, it would be unfair to conclude that the cause and content of the denunciation are based on official records. Yu Qian is very fair and knows people very accurately, if the Yang family really did not report the defeat at the beginning and waited and watched, could they still be recommended and reused by him? In the battle to defend the Beijing Division, would the Ming army still work together to defeat a strong enemy? Yang Hong's son Yang Jun has many shortcomings, but he still has a military and political vision. He knew that with Zhu Qizhen's words, he would have a problem sooner or later. So in 1450, he complained to his subordinates, saying that if Yingzong could return to the Ming Dynasty, it would be the source of the disaster. didn't want to be betrayed by some people, which became the biggest internal reason for Yang Jun to be killed. Zhu Qizhen definitely can't use this as an excuse, so he killed him in the name of other "reasonable", and smeared Yang Jun in history. Affirming Yang Jun also means denying Ming Yingzong, so how should historians and Confucians draw conclusions? No matter from which point of view, Yang Jun will be "portrayed" as a rebel in history.
Continue to read, the great sage wants to take revenge, and sure enough, the hunter came, and there were more than 1,000 horses on the flash, all with eagles and dogs, and swords and guns. The Monkey King looked at those people carefully, and they came dangerously. I was furious in my heart, twisted the recipe in my hand, and recited words in my mouth, and took a breath into the Xun land, and when the breath was about to blow, it was a gust of wind. Good wind! Crush those more than 1,000 people one by one, and sand and seahorses are all injured. The ginseng officer Guiling was busy in front of him, and blood stained the cinnabar ground. It is difficult for the aconite to return to his hometown, how can the betel nut return to his hometown? The corpse is light powder lying in the mountain field, and the red lady's family is looking forward to it.
There are poems as proof, how can people return home when they die? Wild ghosts and lonely souls are like numbness. Poor and vigorous heroes, who do not distinguish between the virtuous and the foolish, and the blood stains the sand.
Now the monkey is full of grief and indignation, and the four ears have been completely formed, and it has reached the point where it does not distinguish between the good and the foolish. However, after slaughtering many so-called hunter legions, the monkey's mind calmed down a lot, and he comprehended a little bit of creation and made some yuan gongs. By the way, Lao Wu quoted a lot of Compendium of Materia Medica in Journey to the West, and he can bring Chinese medicine and people together.
The great sage pressed his head and clapped his hands and laughed, "Creation, creation!" Since I returned to Tang Seng and became a monk, he has always advised me to say that if you do good in a thousand days, good is not enough, and if you do evil in one day, there will be more than enough evil. I followed him and killed a few goblins, and he blamed me for the murder. When he came home today, he brought out so many hunters. ”
This is the creation given by Buddhism, there is a cause and effect, but only in this way may be able to achieve the Yuan Gong. Lao Wu's imagination is too rich, and there is no boundary.
(Zhu Qiyu's mother, Wu, is a famous family.) In the last years of Yongle, as Zhu Zhanji's maid, she was not named a virtuous concubine until she gave birth to Zhu Qiyu to Ming Xuanzong in 1428. Soon after, the mother and son moved out of Ouchi. In February 1434, Zhu Zhanji named Zhu Qiyu as the king of servants, and many ministers only knew that Zhu Zhanji had a second son, but few people knew what he looked like, and now the mother and son are known to everyone. Wu made great contributions to the Confucian education of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Qiyu was neglected and suspicious when he was a child and teenager, so he had to live in seclusion, as if he would only attend on some special occasions. After ten years of orthodoxy, Zhu Qizhen chose a concubine for his younger brother, and at this time Zhu Qiyu was already 18 years old, and it stands to reason that he could get married last year. Even so, Ming Yingzong did not release him as a vassal king, and always guarded the feet of the Son of Heaven. In July 1449, before Zhu Qizhen set out on an expedition, he ordered Zhu Qiyu to supervise the country. This is also a last resort, because Ming Yingzong only has such a brother. This year, Zhu Qiyu was 22 years old. He ushered in a long-overdue turnaround, bursting out of the brilliance of life, but at the cost of overdrawing his life. In February 1457, Emperor Jingtai died with hatred, injustice, sorrow and bitterness. Less than a month ago, Yu Qian was killed, and he was honored as a Han hero for posterity. Zhu Qiyu can also be regarded as a hero. His martial arts and Yu Qian's exploits should be remembered by future generations. Ming Dynasty Zong is also a benevolent and righteous Confucian, if he had secretly killed Zhu Jianshen and several other nephews, eliminated dissidents, and even killed the emperor, maybe his son Zhu Jianji would have survived. Zhu Qiyu couldn't be so ruthless, so he couldn't become a character like Li Shimin and Zhu Di, and finally put himself in. The only son Zhu Jianji died mysteriously early, and his daughter should have no descendants to continue later, as later in the book, "there is no such thing so far", which is regrettable.
In addition, Zhu Qizhen's two sons, Zhu Jianxiang and Zhu Jianchun, died early in 1451 and 1453 respectively. After August 1450, Emperor Taishang and his family were under house arrest in the Nangong of the Great Inner Palace, so the death of the two sons and Zhu Qiyu had absolutely no inevitable relationship. )
The great sage asked the little ones to come out and peel the clothes of the slain hunters, wash the blood stains and put them on to protect them from the cold, to push the corpses of the dead into the deep pool, to drag the dead horses to the future, to skin them, to make boots to wear, to marinate the meat, and to eat them slowly, to exercise the bows, arrows, guns and knives with you in martial arts, and to collect the variegated banners for my use.
(The damage caused by the war to both sides is enormous.) However, comparing the attitudes of Wara and Ming Dynasty Sect towards opponents, it can be seen that Zhu Qiyu is a good person. )
The great sage made a variegated flower flag, which read, "Rebuild Huaguo Mountain and reorganize the water curtain cave Monkey King", recruiting demons and beasts day by day, accumulating grass and grain, and not inscribed the word monk. His favor is great and his means are high, so he went to the Dragon King of the Four Seas, borrowed some Ganlin fairy water, and washed the mountain away. The front is planted with elm and willow, and the pine is planted later, and the peach and plum are all prepared. At ease, happy to live in peace.
On the sixth day of September 1449, Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne. Because the Ming army lost more than 200,000 soldiers and horses during the Tumubao Incident on August 14 (it may also be the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, but for the sake of sounding, the Ming Shilu records it is August 14), Zhu Qizhen was also captured. Under the resentment of the ministers, they killed a number of Wang Zhen's henchmen, but unfortunately they were not slaughtered, at least Cao Jixiang, a eunuch, was left. However, Zhu Qiyu was in danger, Ren Yuqian and others, and the army and the people worked together to successfully command the defense of the Beijing Division in October. After that, he repelled Warat several times, and forced him to return to the Emperor Zhu Qizhen. Without Zhu Qiyu, he has been an emperor for more than 7 years, although there are also many maladministrations and shortcomings, but he is finally the country and the people.
The Ming Dynasty imitated Zhu Yuanzhang and mobilized the whole country, and those vassal kings, ministers, merchants, rich people, monks and veterans gritted their teeth and bleed to support the construction of the Ming army. 1450-1455, or can be called "Jingtai Zhishi". When Zhu Qiyu was the emperor, Wara's first gradually dispelled the idea of continuing to invade the Ming Dynasty on a large scale, and instead defeated Tokhtarbuhua and proclaimed himself Khan. Later, in 1454, he was also killed by his subordinates. It is also a pity that it is a pity to be annoyed and pitiful.
came back to read the book, but said that Tang Seng insisted on driving away the demon monkeys, the mountain road was rugged, but the pine forests were clustered, the trees were dense, and it was necessary to guard against demons and monsters. At the right place, the elder was actually hungry, so Bajie volunteered to find some fasting to eat, bragging without panting. I didn't know that the nerd was walking hard, and I remembered in my heart that Brother Monkey was a good son. Throw down your head and just fall asleep.
Bajie is now happy about Wukong's departure, and he has become a big apprentice. Soon I realized that this boss was not good, and realized that the monkey had paid a lot at that time, and it was not easy. However, Bajie and Wukong are a bit similar in this regard, although they have some opinions on others, but they have more true feelings, and they are all hot-hearted.
Needless to say, Bajie slept here, but said that the elder's hungry ears were hot and his eyes were beating, and his body and mind were uneasy, so he hurriedly called back to Sha Seng and said, "Wu Neng went to fast, why didn't he come back sooner or later?" Sha Seng said, "Master, you don't know how many monks in this West are fasting, and he has a big belly, so he cares about you? "Sure enough, I didn't plant a sand monk at all, and when I was on my own, my words were sharp and I talked a lot. I was proud in my heart, and finally got rid of a monkey, and it was time to say bad things about Bajie, but it wasn't like wronging the pig, either patronizing himself to eat or sleeping lazily. This pig's mouth is too sweet, coaxing the Tang monk to turn around, and it is really difficult to deal with.
Sanzang said, "Exactly, if he is greedy for fasting there, we will meet him there? It's getting late, this is not a place to live, we need to find a prescription." Sha Seng said, "Don't worry, Master, you sit here and wait for me to find him." "Sanzang Dao," exactly, exactly. It's just that there is fasting or not, it's just that it's important to find the next place. Tang Seng was like a mirror in his heart, knowing that he was ready to starve if he relied on Zhu Bajie, but now he has no regrets about driving away the monkeys.
The sand monk took the scepter and walked out of the pine forest to find the eight precepts. Tang Seng was very tired, so he had to fight his spirit, jumped up, and put his luggage in one place; tied his horse to a tree, took off his hat, and inserted a tin cane; he put on a whole coat, walked slowly into the forest, and was bored. The elder had seen all the weeds and flowers, but he could not hear the noise of the homing birds. It's just that he is in a disordered mood, but he has gone the wrong way.
The description of this paragraph also verifies that Tang Seng's current spiritual cultivation is still far away, and he has not been planted. It is said that at this time, you should chant Buddha and meditate, but he, looking at the flowers and plants, is completely an ordinary mortal in a robe.
The elder turned around for a while, but he went to the south, and when he saw a pagoda, he ran away, not even the luggage and white horse, just to rest for a while, not to worship the Buddha. I don't want to meet a demon to carry the general, in fact, people know Tang Seng, and it's really you. I was about to eat you, and I tied it up.
But it was said that the sand monk was looking for the eight precepts and found that he was sleeping and talking in his dreams. He called the nerd long and the nerd short, and he didn't take the eight precepts seriously at all. The two of them went back to see the master together, and found that they had lost it, so they continued to look for it and arrived at the entrance of the Boyue Cave in Wanzi Mountain. Sha Seng said, "Brother, this is not a temple, it is a fairy cave mansion. My master is here, and I can't see it. Bajie said, "Brother, don't be afraid, you should tie down your horses, guard your luggage, and wait for me to ask him for his letter." "Sure enough, Bajie has already seen it, this sand monk doesn't look fierce, but he is actually a coward. This Sha Wujing is very interesting, when he is timid, there are times when he begs for others or plays badly, he is generally called "brother".
The monster came out and made a small episode, the yellow-robed old monster came out and invited the Bajie Sha Seng to also go in and eat a meat bun. This nerd was about to go in seriously, but Sha Seng grabbed him and said, "Brother, he coaxed you, when did you eat human flesh again?"
The nerd only realized that he fought with the monsters, or with the help of the little Buddha gods, he didn't know whether he won or lost, not that the two of them were stupid, but that the monsters were too powerful, and his ability was probably more than ten times that of the two combined.
(Old Man Wu is objectively telling that Zhu Youzhu and Zhu Zhanji on land have the ability to personally command and fight, but in fact, they are average, and there is a considerable gap between them and Zhu Yuanzhang.) The eight precepts of Yunzhan Cave, that is, Zhu Di, are quite good, and the sand monk in the water-Zhu Zhanji is also okay. So at this time, this monster is so powerful, which shows that its mapping characters is not simple. )
Tang Seng cried at this time and was let go by Baihuasha. The princess also made a strategy to deceive the monster back, so that the Tang monk and apprentice could gather, and went to the treasure elephant country to send a letter. The two of them were noisy, and Tang Seng couldn't persuade them. At this time, the three of them had actually come up with an idea, it would be nice if the monkey was still there. However, it didn't take long for it to fade down, and this is also normal, one is that he can't pull his face to ask Wukong to come back, and the other is that there are too many things that happened later, and he can't take care of it.
When he arrived in the capital, the king wanted the monks to save his daughter, Bajie and Sha Seng were so bold that they drank some wine and forgot that they had hugged their heads and ran away before. As a result, they returned to Wanzi Mountain, fought with the monsters for a round, and Bajie slipped into the artemisia grass and thorn vines. The sand monk was caught off guard and was caught by the blame.
Monk Sha is not stupid at all, he can even speak well, his words are strong, he fooled the monsters, he is self-interested and altruistic, and he is also very proud. The shy princess is a woman's water, and Lao Wu is unceremonious to the woman who is an official.
The goblin turned into a beautiful man and arrived in the country of Baoxiang, and after some rhetoric, the situation reversed, but turned Tang Seng into a tiger, and he went to drink and eat people.
Baima was originally the little dragon king of the West Sea, and he recognized Tang Seng as his master, but Tang Seng did not take it as an apprentice. But the white horse still tried to kill the demon, but was injured in vain, and it happened that Bajie came back and persuaded him to go to Huaguo Mountain to find the monkey. White Horse's blind worship of Wukong also shows that the two have a close relationship with each other. Of course, Zhu Qizhen is Zhu Jianshen's father, and although Zhu Qiyu abolished Zhu Jianshen's crown prince, he didn't feel sorry for him much.
Jin Shunmu is tamed into a positive fruit, and the heart ape wood mother is Danyuan. The brother and the younger brother will form three deeds, and the demon and the demon should be the five elements. The pun of this poem is not only the entanglement of the five elements, but also the allusion to what it refers. Gold gives birth to water, and water grows wood. Jin Mu's achievement "Dan Yuan" (Lao Wu definitely didn't dare to write Dan Ming) refers to water. Zhu Jianshen and his brothers get along well, which is worth mentioning. Zhu Jianyun, 1448— In 1517, he was named King of De and died well; Zhu Jianxiang, 1449-1451 (the second year of Jingtai), died young, without a title; Zhu Jianchun, 1450-1453 (the fourth year of Jingtai), was named King Xu, died young, and was called King Xu Mourning; Zhu Jianshu, from 1452 to 1472, was named King Xiuhuai, died of illness; Zhu Jianze (1454-1505), was named King Chong, died well; Zhu Jianjun, 1456-1527, was named King Ji and died well; Zhu Jianzhi, 1458― In 1472, he was named King Xin and died well, and Zhu Jianpei, from 1560 to 1506, he was named King Hui and died well. However, Zhu Jianshen favored the (demon) monk Jixiao, the eunuch Wang Zhi, and the (demon) traitors Li Zixing, Wan An, and Liang Fang, which was his failure.
He also said that Monkey King, my grandson returned to the Water Curtain Cave, and his heart chased the scriptures and monks. The master is in trouble every step of the way, and there should be disasters everywhere, and the kindness and righteousness of the Monkey King are undoubtedly revealed. The five elements are born together, easy to change, and the great sage should return!
The Eight Commandments Righteous Monkey King, sure enough, the monkey got off the donkey down the slope and went to save the master. At this time, the monkey has cultivated for a while, but his heart has matured, and his practice has been smoother and deeper. However, the mountains and rivers are recovering from the peaks, how can Wukong's road to Wukong be so simple?
(In 1457, Zhu Qiyu died.) Ming Dynasty Zong and Yu Qian were united and shared weal and woe, and Wu Chengen wrote here, I am afraid that his clothes were wet with tears. How Lao Wu and Lao Li hope that Emperor Jingtai can live a long life and be full of children and grandchildren, all in the "common joy and innocence".
What's more, it can be seen that Zhu Youji's attitude towards his uncle and grandfather Zhu Qiyu is also very friendly. Ming Xiaozong also wanted to learn from him and make a difference. )
The great sage took the eight precepts and drove the clouds hand in hand, left the cave, crossed the sea of the East Ocean, and went to the sea to purify his body on the west coast. Because since I came back, I have made some goblins in my body in the past few days. Master is a clean-loving person, I'm afraid I will hate me. At this point, the eight precepts realized that the practitioner was sincere, and had no other intentions. Bajie originally thought that the monkey was hypocritical to the master, so the sand monk was even more so. Bajie and Sha Seng were not pure in their intentions towards Tang Sengcai, but after that, they gradually became on par with their senior brothers.
Why did Sun Wukong take a bath? After Zhu Qizhen was restored, he pondered how to clear his name (although the Emperor Taishang sounds very good, in fact, everyone knows that this is a scum; there is also the fact that he was the one who Shi Heng and others staged a coup d'état to support the establishment of power, how to block the mouth of the minister and the people). Xu Youzhen gave him a lot of ideas, and most of them were adopted. For example, Ming Yingzong planned to issue an edict to abolish his younger brother's throne and re-ascend the throne himself. But Lao Xu said, King Yu has never been the lord of the world, you have always been the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how can you say that you will ascend the throne again?
Continuing to read, the monkey arrived in the monster cave, and the sand monk came high up. As soon as the sand monk heard the three words "Monkey King", he felt like an initiation, and the nectar nourished his heart. One side is naturally happy, full of spring, and it doesn't seem to smell a person, just like picking up a piece of gold and jade. You see him holding his Buddha clothes, walking out of the door, and saluting the walker, "Brother, you really fell from the sky!
The walker smiled and said, "You Shani, Master recited the mantra of the hoop, can you make it easier for me? We are a defeated general, don't be brave, save me and save my son!" said the walker, "You come up." The sand monk jumped onto the stone cliff. Hey, the monkey said that the sand monk was a stupid nun, but he didn't know that the sand monk was actually a real monkey spirit, and Wukong, a Lingming stone monkey, was a stupid nun on the contrary. However, Sha Seng also began to accept this senior brother at this time, one is that the monkey is indeed capable of the monsters on the Great West Heavenly Road, and the other is that he still takes care of the junior brothers and sisters.
But said that the Bajie stood in the air, saw the sand monk out of the hole, that is, pressed the cloud head, and shouted, "Brother Sha, heart endure! heart endure!" Sha Seng saw his body and said, "Second brother, where are you from?" This Sha monk's attitude towards Bajie has also eased a little, and now the second brother is more sincere.
(Of course, if Zhu Qizhen is restored, his descendants will be able to inherit the Ming Dynasty.) Therefore, the Bajie and Sha Seng here are also alluded to Zhu Youzhu and Zhu Zaiyuan by the way. )
At this point, the relationship between the three brothers began to thaw, but the harmony is still far from it, don't worry, take your time.
(Zhu Bajie escaped, but Sha Seng was pitiful and was caught by a monster.) After Lao Sha was rescued, he kowtowed to the senior brother and the second senior brother to admit his mistakes and curry favor, indicating that there was a problem. Thinking of mentioning the martyrdom of Guo Guifei at this time, let's make a bold speculation.
It was Zhu Zhanji who was sent to Nanjing by Zhu Gaochi to manage the relocation of the capital together with Zheng He. But Zhu Zhanji was reluctant, so he procrastinated. Then Zhu Gaochi got a small report from Jinyiwei, and he was very unhappy. Zhu Gaochi experienced ups and downs in his early years and was psychologically fragile, but moving to the capital is his biggest wish at present, which can effectively save money for the country and help the people's livelihood. Akihito first went to his empress Zhang to complain, saying that the crown prince did not understand that his father, as a monarch, had to think about war and care about the suffering of the people. However, Zhu Zhanji was Zhang's biological son, and the queen patronized to say good things to the prince, so she forgot to accommodate her husband more. Zhu Gaochi was even more depressed, and couldn't help but come to Guo Guifei to relieve his boredom. Guo Guifei used tricks, and after lingering with Zhu Gaochi several times at night, she suggested that the crown prince be transferred to a son born to her. Because it has been less than a year since Zhu Di's death, Zhu Gaochi is still in the period of filial piety, so theoretically he can't do that. But Akihito couldn't stand the temptation and teasing, but he still kept a little calm and didn't agree to her unreasonable request to remove the crown prince. Guo Guifei frequently rejoiced with her husband for several nights in a row, and mobilized her parents to continue to suggest to Zhu Gaochi during the day, so that she could achieve her wish. The result backfired, not only did the goal not be achieved, but on the contrary, Zhu Gaochi, who was fat and sickly and depressed, died suddenly. Queen Zhang must have known about it, so she counted the new and old hatreds against Guo Guifei together, and she must be killed. In the end, Zhu Zhanji pretended not to know, and let the Empress Dowager Zhang order Guo Guifei to be martyred.
Only in this way can we explain why Guo had three sons born and he was himself martyred? Then most of the ministers understood Zhang and Ming Xuanzong, after all, Guo was likely to interfere in court politics and cause Zhu Gaochi's indulgence, so they did not raise objections. However, everyone is also more optimistic about Mingrenzong, a virtuous monarch, so they have a lot of complaints about Zhu Zhanji's procrastination in Nanjing, which stimulated Zhu Gaochi. Including Wu Chengen and Li Chunfang, it was the same later. )
Wukong criticized Baihua Shay with Confucian filial piety, and turned into a princess to trick Linglong Neidan, a relic of monsters. I don't know how much work this thing has done, it has been refining for several years, and it has been matched with a few turns of male and female to refine this Neidan Relic.
Since the monster has an inner "Dan", it shows that the characters he reflects are by no means trivial, and they are bound to be in power.
The description of this place should be noted, eating Neidan can increase cultivation, which everyone can understand and accept. However, Lao Wu's intentions are very deep, why did the later monsters eat people? Why do the high-level immortals of the Taoist and Buddha families maintain some of the monsters that eat people? There must be a connection, Lao Wu is slowly guiding step by step, to point to a secret that mortals don't know.
Then Wukong and the monster fought, the monkey was more powerful, the monster ran away, the monkey recognized that it was a god in the sky, so he went to the sky to visit, it turned out to be the thirteenth day of the Kui Wood Wolf's nether realm. It turns out that the treasure is like a king and princess, and an extraordinary person. He was originally a jade girl who served incense in the Phi Xiang Palace, because he wanted to have an affair with Kui Wood Wolf. Afraid of polluting the heavenly palace victory, he Sifan went to the lower realm first, and was born in the inner courtyard of the palace, it was the Kui wood wolf who lived up to the early stage, turned into a demon, occupied the famous mountain, took him to the cave, and matched him with a husband and wife for thirteen years. A drink and a peck, it is not predetermined, and now Sun Dasheng has succeeded here.
I see, it seems like a simple story. But after careful analysis, it was found that husband and wife are allowed to live in the sky, but they must be married by Ming Media. Fornication is a big crime, and the gods who are not big officials will definitely give a click.
But what's interesting is that the monkey is said to be here, and it should be slaughtered, and the crime must be much bigger than that of Sha Seng and Bajie. When the Jade Emperor heard this, he just belittled him to go to the Tushi Palace to burn the fire with Taishang Laojun.
Hmm? Did the Jade Emperor soften his heart at this time? Was he moved by the love story of the two? The Jade Emperor accepted the gold medal from the waist of the Kui Mu Wolf, and turned the big things into small things, and sent them to Lao Jun.
Let's speculate whether this Kui Timber Wolf and the maid of the Pil Xiang Hall have an affair, which cannot be verified, it is all said by Kui Timberwolf. Whether there is anything between the two or not, it doesn't really matter. But it shows that many immortals in the heavens and even high-level immortals, regardless of whether they are married or not, have the possibility of fornicating with others. Hey. Then, the Jade Emperor is actually sending the Kui Wood Wolf to the Nether, taking some special native products, coming back to Lao Jun's furnace to refine them, and then handing them over to the Jade Emperor, that gold medal must be a detailed list of local specialties. This is the first time that the Jade Emperor has secretly made a move, so can Lao Jun not know? Is Lao Jun so fuel-efficient? You take your road to the sky, install my single-plank bridge, and the eight immortals cross the sea to show their magical powers.
Look at the original work, "When the Jade Emperor heard this, he accepted the gold medal, and degraded him (Kui Wood Wolf) to go to the Tushi Palace to burn the fire with Taishang Laojun, take the poor to exercise, and reinstate him with merit, and recount his guilt without merit." When the traveler saw the Jade Emperor distribute it like this, his heart rejoiced, and he sang a big song upwards, and said to the gods, "Rank, it's started." The Heavenly Master smiled and said, "That monkey is still such a village custom, and he accepted the strange god for him, and he didn't thank the heavens, but he just retreated." The Jade Emperor said, 'It's just that he has nothing to do, and it's a blessing to end up in the sky.'" This description also reveals that during the Hongji and Jeongdeok years, there was some turmoil in Korea. And by the way, the Ming Dynasty figure implied by this Kui Wood Wolf was born in the Orthodox, Jingtai, and Tianshun (i.e., 1436-1464) years, and more precisely, it should be the Jingtai period, that is, 1449-1457. And when he passed away, it was about the time of Zhengde and Jiajing. Perhaps, in the end, he was sent to North Korea by Zhu Youzhu or Zhu Houzhao or Zhu Houxi.
Lee, born from 1476 to 1506, also known as Yeonsanjun, was the 10th monarch of the Joseon Dynasty and reigned from 1494 to 1506. It is recorded in the Ming Shilu that in May of the second year of Zhengdeok, the Korean side played that King Li had no heirs and was ill and could not handle state affairs. Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty appointed Li Yi, the younger brother of the king of Joseon, to act as the king of Jincheng, Li Yi, and the matter of adding the title will be discussed later. It was not until December of that year that Zhu Houzhao officially appointed Li Yi as the king of Joseon.
But the real situation is that during his reign, Li destroyed Buddhism and Confucianism, which aroused the unanimous opposition of his subjects. In April 1506, a coup d'état was staged by some ministers, forcing Yan Shanjun to abdicate. Soon, Yan Shanjun fell ill and died, and his descendants were all given to die. Because he was deposed as a tyrant, his younger brother did not give Yanshan Jun a temple number or a nickname after he ascended the throne.
Anyway, the monkey came to the lower realm and found the poor Tang Seng, others saw him as a tiger, and the lone wanderer looked at him as a human, a pun. The walker smiled and said, "Master, you are a good monk, how can you make such an evil appearance? You blame me for doing evil and driving me back, you want to be good, how can you make such a face?"
Bajie said, "Brother, save him, don't just expose him." The walker said, "You are a good apprentice of his pride in everything, if you don't save him, what will happen to the old grandson? "The monkeys are still coming up, did you say that to the little monkeys in Huaguo Mountain not long ago? Hehe, this has to be completely admitted by Bajie and Sha Seng and given a big enough face before they can give up.
Sha Seng knelt down and said, "Brother, the ancients are cloudy, don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha." Since my brother is here, I hope to save him. If we can save it, we don't dare to come far away to invite you. "Monk Sha can't help it, but "the big husband can bend and stretch", he has figured out the character of the monkey, and it must be no problem to make a small means.
Only then did the walker relieve the tiger's anger, and the elder appeared in his original body, qualitatively opened his eyes, and only then did he recognize that it was the walker, and hugged him, "Wukong, where are you from?" Sanzang thanked him endlessly, "Virtuous disciple, I have lost you, I have lost you! This time, I will go to the West early, go back to the East Soil, and play the Tang King, your merit is the first." The walker smiled, "Don't say it, don't say it!" But if you don't read it, you will feel love." "Wukong's mouth is still underpumping. In addition to the Bajie Wukong, Tang Seng and Sha Seng are really hypocritical now. If the relationship between the four masters and apprentices, including the white horse, is really to be integrated with each other, then they have to undergo various tests.
The twenty-ninth chapter of Journey to the West is to get rid of the difficult rivers and come to the land, and to turn the mountains and forests with the eight precepts of grace. talked about some things about Zhu Gaochi's emperors, and also mentioned the old pig "Cheng'en". At this time, Zhu Bajie is obviously Zhu Youji, why does he want to "accept grace"?
Looking at the life experience of Ming Xiaozong, he was born in 1470 and died in 1505. Zhu Jianshen's third son, his biological mother is Xiaomu Jihou. Zhu Jianshen's eldest son was born to Wan Guifei, born in 1466, and died early in the second year, and the second son, Zhu Youji, was born in 1469, and his mother was a virtuous concubine. In 1471, he was crowned crown prince, but in 1472, he was posthumously named Prince Gong. So Zhu Youzhu was born in 1470, and his childhood fate was very bumpy. The matter dates back to 1465, when a riot broke out in Guangxi, and Zhu Jianshen sent Han Yong to lead a large army to quell the rebellion. In October of that year, Han Yong attacked Datengxia and won in 1466. There is a big vine on the surface of the Dateng Gorge River, so it gets its name. Han Yong cut it off and renamed it Broken Teng Gorge. It was in the battle of the Yao Miao Uprising that the Ming army captured some Yao boys and girls to Beijing and sent them to the palace. There is a man and a woman in it, and the famous ones will also end miserably in the future. The boy is Wang Zhi, that is, one of the objects of the Kui Wood Wolf in the book, and the girl's original name is Li Tangmei, who was adopted by the local local official surnamed Ji at an early age, so she changed her surname to Ji. In 1466, she was already 17 years old, and because she was clever and clever, she became a female official. In 1469, he was favored by Zhu Jianshen and gave birth to Zhu Youzhu the next year. Because the Ji family was born in the Yao clan, Zhu Jianshen and the Queen Mother didn't like Zhu Youzhu very much. At this time, Zhu Youji was still alive, so he canonized Zhu Youji as the prince in the second year, and he didn't want Zhu Youji to die early in 1472 when he had just been the prince for less than two months. Zhu Jianshen was very sad, and when he saw Zhu Youzhu and Ji's family, he panicked and became even more estranged from his mother and son.
Time flies, and Zhu Youji's childhood is not easy. However, as the years passed, Zhu Jianshen loved Concubine Wan too much, and no prince was born. The Queen Mother Zhou was anxious, so she began to care for Zhu Youji, after all, this is her own grandson. Zhu Jianshen's attitude towards this "baby bump" is inferior, otherwise how could little Zhu Youji's fate be so bumpy? It can be guessed that the Queen Mother once tried hard to persuade her son, but Ming Xianzong did not listen.
Zhu Youji's life ushered in a turning point, and by June 1475, Zhu Jianshen's only son Zhu Youzhi was 6 years old. It should be the Empress Dowager Zhou who instructed the ministers, anyway, the ministers began to write on the seventh day of the first month of June to ask for the early establishment of the prince. The ministers' intentions are good, but they may not know the story behind the prince's mother, Ji.
But Zhu Jianshen must know, but he can't say it. Maybe some ministers also knew it, but he was scared to death and didn't dare to reveal it to others. So Zhu Jianshen deduced that Zhu Youji was still young and not in a hurry (in comparison, Zhu Youji was made the prince when he was only 3 years old, and now Zhu Youji is 6 years old). The ministers were unwilling, and they wrote vigorously, and in the end, Zhu Jianshen was helpless and discussed with the Queen Mother what to do.
It is impossible to judge what the mother and son said, but on the 26th of that month, the prince's biological mother, Ji, suddenly fell ill and was already heavy, and on the 28th, Ji passed away naturally.
When the ministers saw it, they were all dumbfounded. No matter how stupid you are, you know that there must be a story in it, so they are silent, and no one mentions the establishment of the prince. About two months have passed like this, Zhu Jian couldn't hold his breath, these guys were fierce when they shouldn't have called, and when it came to the critical moment, they were all dumb again. So he instructed the ministers to continue to write to ask for the crown prince, and everyone blinked for a while and complied.
In this way, in September 1475, the show was staged for about half a month, and finally Zhu Jianshen "conformed to the wishes of the subjects of heaven and the wishes of the people" and asked the Ministry of Rites to discuss the selection of the day to register the treasure. Soon a few days later, it was agreed on November 18, 1475.
After Zhu Jianshen agreed, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but when he thought of that Ji, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. So he rarely didn't go to Wan Guifei, but wandered around the palace at night. I don't want to meet another female official, Shaw Brothers, who is chanting and singing. I admired Zhu Jianshen's eyesight and ability, and it was so coincidental that on the second day of July in 1476, Zhu Youqi was born. The fate of the Shaw Brothers was also bumpy, after the age of fifteen, he married seven people successively, but they all died unfortunately before marriage. Father Shao Lin also saw that his daughter was not pleasing to the eye, so he sold Shao Clan to a eunuch and was able to enter the palace as a palace maid.
Since then, Zhu Jianshen has several sons born one after another (the last son, Zhu Youkai, was born in the first month of the twenty-third year of Chenghua, and Zhu Jianshen died on the Double Ninth Festival of the year), but Zhu Youzhu has been established as the prince, and his status is unshakable. "Cheng'en Bajie turns to the mountains and forests", perhaps this is the story behind it. As he grew up, Zhu gradually learned about the past, which had a profound impact on his future behavior. The reason why Ming Xiaozong did not officially expand the harem is probably because he didn't want the story of his biological mother to repeat again.
Let's analyze Princess Baihua again, there is no doubt that she also has the shadow or soul of Wan Guifei. According to the Ming Shilu, she was born in Zhucheng County, Qingzhou, and entered the palace at a very young age, because she was smart and clever and was loved by Zhu Qizhen's mother. When she was 15 years old, she became the maid of the Empress Dowager Sun. At the age of 19, he began to serve the 2-year-old prince Zhu Jianshen, and more than ten years later, the two fell in love for a long time. After Ming Xianzong ascended the throne, he had a son with Wan, who was also the eldest son of Zhu Jianshen, and Wan was named a concubine. This child died young, and Wan did not give birth again (among them, there may be some secrets, because some people do not want Wan to have children again). In the twelfth year of Chenghua, that is, the thirteenth year of Zhu Jianshen's reign as emperor, he was named the imperial concubine, only under the queen.
In fact, Wan Shi is far from being as bad as Ming Shi said, and he is even a poor person. It's just because Zhu Jian loves the house and Wu deeply, and he named his father-in-law Wangui from a civilian to Jinyi Wei Zheng Qianhu, and later promoted Jinyi Wei to command the affairs. However, in the seventh year of Chenghua, Wangui retired. He was a good man, but he was worried when he received the reward, and he admonished his son not to be extravagant. It's just that his eldest son Wantong is a loser, and he didn't listen to his father's advice at all, and first became a brocade guard and a thousand households. In the twelfth year of Chenghua, Zhu Jianshen named his brother-in-law Wantong as the commander and Wanda as the deputy Qianhu. In the fourteenth year of Chenghua, the commander of Shengjin Yiwei made Wanxi the commander of the capital, and the commander of Tongzhi Wantong was the commander of thousands of households, and Wanda was the commander of the affairs.
In the eighteenth year of Chenghua, Wantong finally died. In the first month of the twenty-third year of Chenghua, the imperial concubine Wan Shixuan, Zhu Jianshen was very sad and died in the same year.
In the book of Journey to the West, Baihua stressed "thirteen years" several times, which should mean that she was named the imperial concubine in the thirteenth year of Zhu Jianshen's accession to the throne.
Wan Guifei was 17 years older than Zhu Jianshen and was the spiritual sustenance of Ming Xianzong (especially in 1452-1457). It's just because of his age and low background, and because Ming Xianzong took care of Wanjia, he didn't have a resolute opposition, so he was criticized by ministers and Confucians. Another fatal thing is that Wan listened to the instigation of the eunuch and tried to persuade Zhu Jianshen to abolish Zhu Youji's position as the crown prince.
Ye Shi and Ming Shi are also very unkind to Wan Guifei, but judging from Journey to the West, it is still a duty. The author also has both praise and disapproval for Wan's treatment, and the biggest opinion is probably that he fornicated with Zhu Jianshen and separated the father-son relationship between Ming Xianzong and Zhu Youji.
This princess of Baihua Shame returned to the country of Baoxiang, and the father and daughter sisters were reunited, and the narrative was very simple. There is a problem here, so the princess mapping object at this time may be changed from Wan Guifei to Ji. After Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youzhu ascended the throne, he posthumously honored his biological mother Ji as the Empress of Filial Piety, Cihui, Gongke, Zhuang Chongtian, Chengshengchun, and moved to Maoling and did not worship Fengci Palace. In the fifteenth year of Jiajing, he was finally given the nickname of filial piety, Mu Cihui, Gong Ke Zhuang, Chongtian Chengsheng Empress, and was lowered by half a rank.
Next, to analyze the identity of the Kui Wood Wolf, it is too complex and diverse, and it is very difficult to understand. The Boyue Cave of Wanzi Mountain, the Luolu Cave of Datengxia in Guangxi. The yellow-robed monster in Wanzi Mountain is Wang Zhi, as mentioned above, Wang Zhi of the Yao nationality entered the palace in 1467, and he was about 10 years old. Soon he was assigned to Wan Guifei's side (judging from the thirteen years repeatedly mentioned in the Journey to the West, perhaps 1471 at this time). Since then, Wang Zhi has been loved by the Wan family, and Zhu Jianshen has gradually valued him and appointed him as the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch.
In 1476, the demon Li Zilong hid into the palace and was later killed. Zhu Jianshen ordered Wang Zhi to investigate the ins and outs of this matter, and Wang Zhi and Wang Yue quickly figured it out, so Ming Xianzong was very satisfied with Wang Zhi, this is a spy seedling.
In the first month of 1477, Zhu Jianshen established the West Factory, which was in charge of Wang Zhi. For a time, the prison was repeatedly raised, and the ministers were afraid, so the cabinet and the six ministries and nine secretaries wrote to ask for the dismissal of the West Factory. In desperation, Ming Xianzong was temporarily abolished. A month later, the West Factory reopened.
Beginning in 1478, Wang Zhi was responsible for the handling of border affairs in Liaodong, and Wang Zhi and Chen Yue made many contributions; in 1480, Wang Zhi and Wang Yue went to Datong to supervise military affairs, and attacked the little Tatar prince at night in Maoerzhuang; in 1481, the Tatars took revenge and were repelled by Wang Zhi; in 1482, Wang Zhi defeated the Tatars again; in 1483, Wang Zhi was transferred from Datong and demoted to the sixth rank of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and Wang Yue was dismissed from his post as a citizen.
Just after Wang left straight, the Tatars invaded, and Xu Ning, the chief military officer of Datong, and others were defeated, but they were rewarded for their merits. At this time, the cabinet (the first assistant is Wan An) and the ministers were afraid that they would condemn themselves because of Wang Zhi's matter, so they jointly deceived Zhu Jianshen. In the second year, Ming Xianzong finally knew the truth, but he didn't want to make things too big, so he had to continue to put it on hold without Wang Zhi. Until the eleventh year of Zhu Youji's Hongzhi, Ming Xiaozong planned to enable Wang Zhi, but in the end it failed.
Wang Zhi was a controversial figure, and although he was hateful in Xichang, was the officialdom at that time so clear? Not to mention that Wang Zhi had many military exploits in guarding the border, and it would not be undesirable if he could always guard Datong and Xuanfu.
However, once this yellow-robed monster entered the Treasure Elephant Kingdom, he turned into a demon monk Jixiao and others. Although Zhu Jianshen himself favored Wan Guifei, later under the bewitchment of this fake monk and his comrades, he took medicine, spoiled her in the harem one after another, and frequently gave birth to a number of children, rejuvenating the second spring (not the imaginary Wan Guifei is powerful and arrogant). His last son was conceived a year before Zhu Jianshen's death. I will talk about Ji Xiao and others later, but I won't mention it for the time being, and I will also talk about the two "sons" of Kui Wood Wolf. These two sons are Wang Zhi's two assistant generals, Wang Yue and Chen Yue.
Wang Yuezhi, 1426-1499, Jingtai two years of Jinshi, Zhu Jianshen when the official to the military department, Feng Wei Ningbo. Because of his good friendship with Wang, he was removed from the title in 1483 and lived in Anlu. Wang Yue devoted himself to serving the country, and repeatedly failed to complain about grievances. Until Zhu Youzhu succeeded to the throne, he was able to return to his hometown in the amnesty. Continue to write to the court and get a new official. Wang Yue was disliked by the officials and dissatisfied, and Shang Si was still injustice for the country's defense of the enemy. In order to achieve his goal, he took the path of the eunuch Li Guang. However, in 1494, Zhu Youzhu was tired of hearing this, so he promoted him to the imperial history of the left capital, but ordered him to apply for retirement quickly. In 1497, the Tatars harassed the border passes. Wang Yue was reinstated and had many military exploits. In October 1498, Li Guang committed suicide in fear of sin, which affected Wang Yue. Wang Yue was disheartened and died soon in early 1494.
The "stain" on Wang Yue's life is probably nothing more than the close relationship with Wang Zhi and Li Guang, the two eunuchs. However, most of the officialdom at that time suppressed Wang Yue's performance, was it so peaceful? Wang Yue had no choice but to come, and Wang Zhi was indeed capable of being above himself, how to comment on Ye Feiye?
Chen Yue, a jinshi in the first year of Tianshun, is much inferior to Wang Yue. But with Wang Zhi, he also made great achievements. Chen Yue's biggest sin is to frame Ma Wensheng. Later, Wang Zhi and Wang Yue were separated, and they rode the wall in a slippery way. In 1482, Wang Zhi had already arrived in Datong, and Chen Yue (Ren Bingbu Shangshu) remained in Beijing and retired after being impeached in March. His life deeds are not recorded in the Ming Shilu, and it is difficult to objectively determine his merits and demerits.
On the whole, it is actually talking about Xianzong and the "powerful ministers" appointed by him. Lao Wu was very pitiful and angry with Yulong, and finally showed a lot of mercy in his writing.
Jade Dragon strongly invites Sun Wukong back, I am afraid that it is some recognition of Zhu Jianshen by Wu Chengen. Zhu Jianshen has a mediocre life, and treating his uncle Zhu Qiyu more fairly is really a bright spot. Deprecating Shang and Ma Wensheng, and appointing Wang Zhi to favor Jixiao, was the most indignant to Old Man Wu.
If Zhu Jianshen was just an ordinary person, maybe the story of him and Wan's would be talked about. It's just that Ming Xianzong is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he is addicted to this and even collapsed for the sake of Qing, and it is difficult not to be pointed at and poked by the world.
Many people think that Zhu Qizhen in the Ming Dynasty abolished the burial of concubines, which should actually be the credit of Ming Xianzong. Regardless of whether Ming Yingzong had this edict during his lifetime, if Zhu Jianshen insisted on the martyrdom system, it would not be impossible to achieve it. Even if Zhu Qizhen later "said well", that was the main credit of Peng Shi and Li Xian.
In these books, Yulong fought with Kui Wood Wolf, and invited back the "affectionate and righteous" Monkey King to Ba Ringming, which shows that Lao Wu's evaluation of him is still fair and objective, after all, Zhu Jianshen later abandoned the demon monk Jixiao.
Zhu Jianshen was also dissatisfied with the corruption of his subordinates, but he was unwilling to punish them. Just say that if your heir holds you accountable in the future, won't you be afraid?
Ming Xianzong treated his uncle Zhu Qiyu very well, and did a lot of rehabilitation work for him, which was much better than Zhu Di's treatment of his nephew Zhu Yunwen. also shows from the side that Lao Wu's praise for Zhu Qiyu is overflowing, and he is going to surpass his brother Zhu Qizhen.
Finally, Zhu Jianshen believes in Taoism, which is different from his father Zhu Qizhen.
His master and apprentice continued to go west, after all, I don't know what happened after that, when he will get the west sky, please listen to the nonsense next time.
In addition, Mr. Wu Chengen, the author of the biography of Journey to the West, is very likely to have been born in the thirteenth year of Zhu Youji's Hongzhi (that is, from January 31, 1500 to January 18, 1501, the "thirteenth" year is mentioned many times in these books), which may also be a fate of "Cheng'en Bajie Turning to Mountains and Forests".
