On the morning of the thirteenth day of the first month of the sixth year of the Ming Dynasty.

Taiming Emperor Zhu Jianyan called Zhu Jingyuan to his bedroom again:

"Tomorrow, I will escort your grandfather's coffin north to Shuntianfu for my father.

"After I left this time, I won't be coming back for a short time.

"Now I officially hand over Emperor Guangwu's last words to you."

Zhu Jingyuan was obviously stunned, and then he realized in an instant that Emperor Guangwu and his old man had really left a booklet.

"Emperor Shizu's Last Words—"

Zhu Jianyan took his son into the basement of the dormitory.

The new palaces newly built in the last years of Ankang have basements, which can be connected to the underground comprehensive line traffic pipes.

The upper and lower entrances and exits have multiple complex blockades, and it is more troublesome to enter through the underground passages than through the palace.

There is also a dedicated little secret storage room and a fixed safe in the basement.

Zhu Jianyan took out a small box that had been inherited for more than 100 years from his special safe.

On the table in the middle of the basement, open the lock of the box with the key you have with you:

Zhu Jianyan lifted the lid of the box, carefully took out a silk package, and said to Zhu Jingyuan with emotion:

"This is something that His Majesty Emperor Guangwu left to future generations, and only the Ming Emperors of the past dynasties can read the legacy of the ancestors.

"Actually, after I ascended the throne for a year, your grandfather passed it on to me.

"But I didn't give it to you a year after you ascended the throne.

"First of all, because when I ascended the throne, I was already forty-five years old, and I was past the age of impulsiveness.

"Second, your grandfather and I feel that the knowledge and guidance left by Emperor Shizu are of little significance to you now.

"Thirdly, your grandfather and I also feel that you already have your own thoughts and ideas, and you can be regarded as self-contained.

"At that time, you were already concentrating on the changes in the situation on the Tessie continent and preparing for war.

"In order to prevent some of Emperor Shizu Guangwu's ideas from disturbing your thinking, we decided not to pass this booklet directly to you for the time being.

"Now that the war is finally over, I am also going to Shuntianfu, and now I will officially pass it on to you.

"According to Emperor Shizu's will, this thing is related to the stability of our Daming Jiangshan Sheji, so only the Ming Emperor can watch it.

"Do not divulge it to anyone, including your wife and concubines, and your children.

"Originally, you had to carefully seal it yourself, and you made a copy of your daily reading by hand.

"In order to avoid errors in copying and memorization, the manuscript should not be passed on to future generations as the original, but only as the original.

When the heir succeeded to the throne, he burned his own manuscript.

"No two copies shall be left in the hands of any two different persons.

"This is Emperor Shizu's request, but I think you might have your own ideas.

"So it's up to you to decide what to do with it in the future."

Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly with a little curiosity and agreed:

"Erchen understands."

Then under Zhu Jianyan's gaze, Zhu Jingyuan carefully opened the silk package, revealing four hand-edited books.

The book as a whole has been yellowed, and there is no writing on the cover.

Zhu Jingyuan, with the mentality of admiring the relics of his predecessors, opened his first glance with curiosity and looked at the contents inside.

Then I couldn't help but frown very quickly.

Zhu Jingyuan originally thought that he should see a diary of a traverser's predecessor, and he might see a large number of words and phrases that he was familiar with in his previous life.

As a result, all I saw was a copy of "Emperor Ming Zu Xun - A New Chapter of the Ancestors".

These things seem to have been written by Emperor Guangwu Zhu Cihong himself.

But the things he wrote, the words and sentences of all the chapters, are completely devoid of the characteristics of modern people.

And in the opening part, he directly gave himself a "deification".

It is said that in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, that is, when the city of Beijing was broken and Sheji was overturned, he suddenly received a reminder from the ancestors of the Emperor of Heaven and obtained knowledge of ancient and modern times.

Only then can we turn the tide of the tide.

Zhu Jianyan on the other side looked at his son's reaction, and couldn't help but ask:

"Does it seem a little disappointed? Your grandfather also thinks that you may be disappointed, and he thinks that you already know everything about it. ”

Zhu Jingyuan couldn't explain why he felt stunned:

"I can't say it's a disappointment, I don't have time to look at it carefully now, maybe I'll have feelings in the future."

Zhu Jianyan didn't say anything, and asked Zhu Jingyuan to put away the ancestors' testaments first, and then go with himself to say goodbye to Emperor Zhenzonghuan of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Jingyuan followed Zhu Jianyan to the royal station.

Zhu Jingyuan took the existing ministers in the court and the close branch clan of Zhu Zhongliang's grandchildren.

Zhu Zhongliang's coffin was sent to a special train car.

I saw my father and a group of retired ministers who were dying on the send-off train.

After the train left Yingtian New Town, Zhu Jingyuan returned to the Qianqing Palace.

Sitting in his office, he patiently read the articles left by Emperor Shizu.

When Zhu Jingyuan started, he looked at the words written by Zhu Cihong, and suspected that Zhu Cihong was Zhu Cihong, but he just got some memories from modern times.

After turning over a part, I slowly began to feel that it might be a modern person who merged with Zhu Cihong himself.

But after basically reading it, Zhu Jingyuan began to wonder again, is this Zhu Cihong a modern person who has crossed over?

As a time-traveler, it is reasonable to evaluate Zhu Cihong's actions from the perspective of his identity as a modern person in his previous life.

For example, he wrote the posthumous texts of the ancestors in the form of the Emperor's ancestral teachings in order to take care of the reading and comprehension skills of future generations.

At the same time, he also deliberately disguised the fact that he was not a person of this world.

Now that this posthumous story is really completely public, it will not directly think that he may be a traverser.

It is no different from the emperors of classical times who performed miracles for themselves.

But since there is no essential difference, how can I be sure whether he is really a "fellow countryman"?

What if he wrote about the process of obtaining information that was not made up by himself but was true?

The knowledge of the traverser can also be obtained in other ways......

In the end, this posthumous article seems to be of little use to himself and the current Da Ming.

In the testament of the ancestors, a large number of things are indeed predicted in the way of the gods.

Including the situation of the main powers around the world, and what may happen between them in the future.

Then there are the major resources, uses and distribution ranges and reserve levels around the world.

Finally, there are various ideas for technological upgrades and ideas for invention and creation, etc.

But first, he himself has changed history on a massive scale.

Even before his appearance, his predictions and actual historical developments had already begun to deviate on a large scale.

I have once again changed history into an even more mess.

The predictions he made about this world nearly two hundred years ago based on the history of another world have no real value now.

The various resource deposits mentioned by Emperor Shizu have now been basically proven.

Emperor Sejo was very vague about the details of the main mineral deposits.

Probably just a reminder of what type of mine will be in a certain place, as for the scope and reserves of the mining area, it is a very general statement like "moderate", "large amount", and "massive".

It may be that Emperor Shizu didn't know the details in the first place, or it could be that he deliberately didn't act like a traverser.

For example, for the oil in the Dashi area, Emperor Shizu just said that there was oil there, and then hollowly explained that this resource was important.

On a technical level, the basic principles of the steam engine and the internal combustion engine are mentioned, but the design details are fundamental.

Even the possible requirements and application sizes are ambiguous.

There are also planes and aircraft carriers in it, but again, there are no details, and they are at the level of ordinary people who do not care about the military.

As a result, there is not much content in the posthumous chapter.

Zhu Jingyuan stopped to think from time to time, and it only took an afternoon to finish reading.

Then Zhu Jingyuan subconsciously wanted to burn this posthumous article.

The existence of the posthumous text itself is too sensitive, and there are many secrets on it that are meaningless in themselves, but making them public may have a bad effect.

Regardless of whether Emperor Shizu Guangwu was a time-traveler or not, he should not want the ontology of Shizu's relics to be passed on forever.

It's just that I am worried that future emperors will not be able to grasp his intentions and experience, and will not be able to implement the right technology at the right time.

I had to leave behind this obviously very sensitive thing.

However, the idea of burning it directly was soon abandoned.

Although the direct prediction of history in the posthumous text is no longer meaningful, there are still many sociological reflections and analyses on it.

I am lacking in this area, and the point is that there is no one to discuss and think about directly.

The relevant content on the posthumous article can be referred to.

There is no point in predicting the future and envisioning future technologies.

Therefore, Zhu Jingyuan prepared to selectively transcribe, and then destroy the original left by Emperor Shizu.

Before the digitization of documents, the easiest way to "revise" non-popular documents, such as daily notes and various archival documents, was to destroy them.

Zhu Yuanzhang once wrote a book of "Imperial Records", which recorded the absurdities of his main sons and nephews.

This kind of thing was written by Zhu Yuanzhang himself, and it was not widely circulated in the market.

In the end, the versions that Zhu Jingyuan saw in his previous life and in this life were only the affairs of King Qin, King Jin, King Zhou, King Chu, King Lu, King Jingjiang and others.

beating cooks, enslaving prisoners, killing people at will, snatching people's fiancées, arranging people to go to Yangzhou to buy skinny horses, etc.

But there is no content of Zhu Di in it at all.

Zhu Di couldn't be an honest and good boy when he was young.

Obviously, after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he deleted his content.

In the same or earlier era, many conventional texts were "solitary".

If you burn it directly, there may be nothing, and future generations may not know that this thing exists.

For example, the queen of the time of Prince Qin Shi, the empress after becoming the first emperor, and the situation of the palace of Empress Qin, there is not a word in the official history.

Later generations naturally did not know anything about the relevant situation.

Some people can only make things up completely if they want to do things, and everyone knows that the relevant content is pure nonsense.

If someone really wants to "change history" and wants to change the bad into the good, and change one thing into another, it will be very troublesome.

Because "reform" means that there will be results, and the finished product must be left behind, and it must be seen by future generations.

Then future generations can look for clues and compare it with other records of the same era or similar eras to analyze the authenticity and credibility of the corrected information.

If you have to change it, try to change it privately.

For example, the details of various conspiracies in history, many historians seem to be immersed in the scene, recording the conspiracy process of the parties in detail.

Most of this stuff should be made up, but no one knows the real details, so there is no way to correct it.

But don't tamper with the well-known things that have been made public.

Li Shimin had no way to erase his eldest brother Li Jiancheng, and he couldn't delete the Xuanwumen file itself.

There is no way to change himself to the eldest son and the orthodox prince to succeed directly to the throne.

can only use the identity of the emperor and the family clan to expel Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji from the clan genealogy.

"The edict was completed and Yuanji was registered".

This kind of patriarch's expulsion of the brother's genealogy will also be recorded as a matter of course.

As for what happened to Xuanwumen at that time, how Li Shimin arranged Xuanwumen's plan in detail.

Probably no one can say it all the way.

However, the occurrence of the Xuanwumen incident itself, as well as the final result of this incident, were clear at that time and in later generations.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, many entangled things were actually similar.

After Zhu Di ascended the throne, he asked Xie Jin to rewrite the family tree for the royal family, that is, "Tianhuang Jade".

Xie Jin's first version of Tianhuang Jade said that only Chengzu Zhu Di himself and Zhou King Zhu Hu and their brothers were the sons of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.

The eldest Yiwen prince Zhu Biao, the second king of Qin, and the third king of Jin are all concubines born to other concubines.

The idea was obviously that Zhu Biao, King Qin, and King Jin were all dead at that time, and the five brothers on Zhu Di's side were left with himself and the old King of Wuzhou.

Anyway, dead people can't speak, so they can compliment Zhu Di.

But Zhu Di felt that Xie Jin's writing was too outrageous, and the generals and courtiers who were still alive around him in the early Ming Dynasty were not blind.

Before his father became the emperor, his brother and mother did not live in the inner garden of the deep palace, and often dealt with the generals and ministers below.

My father still has a large group of godsons......

A group of old courtiers and godbrothers all knew that their mother had given birth to five sons before she became the queen.

Even if you put aside the eldest brother's family, the descendants of the second and third brothers are still alive, and they are all a big family.

He erased his father's three sons-in-law, his mother's three sons, and his third brother and brother out of thin air, and he Li Shimin couldn't do it.

So Zhu Di finally rejected the original version and asked Xie Jin to rewrite the first version according to the normal situation.

The normal record of Queen Ma having five sons and two daughters was restored.

At the same time, although some people in later generations often questioned Zhu Di's background, many people questioned whether Zhu Yunwen was not a son-in-law.

However, Zhu Di and Zhu Yunwen's uncle and nephew have not publicly questioned each other's origins.

At the very least, no relevant records have been left, and the amounts left behind are normal records.

Zhu Yunwen, as a loser, did not leave any doubts about Zhu Di being the son of Queen Ma, and there may be a possibility that the record will be deleted.

But Zhu Di, as the victor, did not leave any doubts about the identity of Zhu Yunwen's eldest grandson.

Even, in the six hundred years of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the official and the people basically did not question Zhu Yunwen's identity as the chief.

Of course, Zhu Di did not recognize Zhu Yunwen's emperor identity and year name, just like Li Shimin expelled Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's genealogy.

But Zhu Di did not deny the existence of Zhu Yunwen, nor did he deny that he was the eldest son of his eldest brother.

If Zhu Xiongying is an adult, of course, he is the eldest son, but he died young, and according to tradition, he is not included in the family tree or the ancestral grave, so he can only be buried alone.

Therefore, in the general perception of Zhu Di at that time, Zhu Yunwen was indeed the eldest grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang's eight classics.

On the contrary, history lovers on the Internet in later generations like to question Zhu Yunwen's identity as a grandson from a different angle.

In addition, during the Ming Dynasty, the temples and mausoleums of the Ming Dynasty were all state institutions, which were actually semi-public.

Usually there are special people to maintain, and the emperor will regularly bring hundreds of officials to worship.

The layout and facilities in the Ming Tomb can also be regarded as semi-public at this time.

There are officials at a certain level, as well as officials from relevant institutions, who know what is going on inside.

It's no secret.

For most of the Ming Dynasty, there was no secret history of Queen Ma's children.

Everyone knows the actual situation, and it makes no sense to make it up, and someone can verify it relatively easily.

But by the time of the Qing Dynasty, the situation was completely reversed.

The mausoleum of the temple in the Ming Dynasty became a sensitive facility.

Officials with high enough status, in order to avoid the suspicion of worshipping the mausoleum of the former temple of the dynasty, will not take the initiative to investigate the mausoleum of the temple of the Ming Dynasty.

Low-level officials and personnel are denied the opportunity to enter.

Although the Qing Dynasty claimed to protect the Ming Tomb, it was impossible for his ancestors to protect it sincerely, just to win the hearts of the people in Jiangnan.

In fact, Xiaoling was soon reduced to a vegetable garden for the surrounding people and a racecourse for the banner people.

The ground facilities in the filial piety tomb were soon destroyed in a large area, and the tablets of the hall of enjoyment were naturally disappeared soon.

At this time, it is impossible to determine the placement of the internal tablet brush.

Therefore, at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there began to be a legend that the literati wrote down the affairs of the people, and some people saw the tablets of Zhu Yuanzhang and the harem concubines in Xiaoling.

"Let me tell you, the ranking next to Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma is 'Concubine Li Shu'.

"This woman is the mother of Zhu Yuanzhang's three eldest sons.

That is, the crown prince Zhu Biao, the second king of Qin, and the third king of Jin were all born to her.

"On the other side is a woman named 'Concubine Qi', this woman is the biological mother of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di.

"That Queen Ma actually has no son!"

This legend has influenced many people, including many folk historians, as well as modern Ming history researchers after the Qing Dynasty.

They take it for granted that literati such as Qian Qianyi should be relatively reliable, at least with a certain degree of credibility.

It wasn't until later generations discovered the epitaph of Concubine Li's father that they knew that Concubine Li's father, Li Jie, was only twenty-four years older than Zhu Biao.

A year after Zhu Biao was born, Li Jie was cast under Zhu Yuanzhang's account.

Unless Li Jie gave birth to Concubine Li Shufei at the age of twelve, Concubine Li Shufei secretly followed Zhu Yuanzhang at the age of twelve.

After Concubine Li Shu gave birth to Zhu Biao, she told her father Li Jie about the matter, and asked her father to go to her son-in-law Zhu Yuanzhang.

In this way, the actual situation is recorded in the notes of those literati.

And this is obviously impossible.

At the same time, many literati arranged that Queen Ma had no sons, but because of the limitations of the times, they ignored Queen Ma's two daughters.

Queen Ma has a daughter, which means that she can have children, and everyone knows that Queen Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang have an excellent relationship.

It is impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang to make the first son born to a twelve-year-old concubine as the heir in a hurry when his dearest wife can have children.

Zhu Biao, as the prince, shares a set of teams with the emperor's father, and this kind of over-standard treatment also shows that he is the real eldest son of Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.

It is impossible for the eldest son to be adopted, which is an outrageous treatment.

As for the claim that Zhu Di was the widow of Emperor Yuan Shun, or born to a Korean woman, it comes from the records of the Mongols and Koreans, respectively.

But when Zhu Di was born, Zhu Yuanzhang was still messing around in Jiangnan, and the emperor and concubine of Yuan Dadu were very stable at this time.

Eight years later, Xu Dacai broke through the capital of Yuan, and Zhu Di was already eight years old at this time.

Or when Zhu Yuanzhang was running a territory in Jiangnan, he secretly sneaked into the capital of Yuan Dadu and went to the concubine of Emperor Yuan Shun, and directly left a child.

Either when Xu Da broke through the capital of Yuan, he captured a concubine of Emperor Yuan Shun with an eight-year-old son, and dedicated him to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had already become an emperor, fell in love with this concubine, and by the way, he named this son the king of Yan and guarded the capital of Yuan.

Wild history may not be true, but it must be very wild.

Regarding the children of Queen Ma, the origins of Zhu Biao and Zhu Di and others, all the folk histories and notes have all kinds of unexplained loopholes.

On the contrary, according to the official history, Queen Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang gave birth to five boys and two girls normally, so that all aspects of the problem can be found to be reasonably explained.

In this world, Ying Tianfu has never fallen, and Zhu Yuanzhang's filial piety tomb has always been very well protected.

The claim that Queen Ma had no children has not been circulated either.

On the other hand, when it came to the Renmu Dynasty, Emperor Shizu organized an action to close the coffin and discern history openly and honestly.

It mainly recognized the status of Prince Yiwen, Emperor Jianwen, and Emperor Jingtai.

First of all, restore the emperor title given by Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen to Yiwen Prince Zhu Biao, Emperor Xingzongkang.

He also took out the temple number and nickname given to Zhu Yunwen by Nanming in his previous life, posthumously honored him as Emperor Huizongrang, and made up the seventeen-character nickname.

The emperor's meaning was obvious, saying that he took the initiative to give way to his more virtuous uncle Zhu Di, and gave him a statement that he could get by in terms of face.

In the end, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu was given the temple number of Daizong, which was also equipped with the seventeen-character name of the official emperor.

The historical Daizong appeared in the Tang Dynasty, which was originally supposed to be Tang Shizong, but the name of Li Shimin was avoided, so it was changed to Daizong.

By the time of the Ming Dynasty, although there was no need to avoid the word Shi, Sejong had already used it for Jiajing.

The status of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu is indeed suitable for the word "generation".

Although Emperor Jingtai had a good reputation in later generations, and although Zhu Qizhen itself had a bad reputation, the later emperors of the Ming Dynasty were the descendants of Zhu Qizhen.

Therefore, Zhu Cihong can only think that Emperor Jingtai is only the acting emperor during Zhu Qizhen's northern hunting.

In the end, the emperor was returned to the orthodox Zhu Qizhen.

Of course, whether it is Zhu Biao, Emperor Xingzongkang, or Zhu Yunwen, Emperor Huizong, and Zhu Qiyu, Emperor Zongjing,

None of them entered the temple to enjoy the sacrifice, after all, they were not the direct ancestors of the current emperor.

At the same time, Emperor Sejo also gave them an official evaluation.

After the death of Taizu, Chengzu directly succeeded to the throne, which was the best choice for Daming Sheji.

Emperor Daizong also completed the task of guarding the capital division very well.

Zhu Cihong faced up to the fact that Zhu Yunwen's father and son and Emperor Daizong actually existed, and gave them a reluctantly plausible conclusion.

Let all the people talk about it thereafter, and there is no need to circumvent their presence.

Zhu Jingyuan recalled the history and took out the pamphlets he had written over the years, as well as more blank books he had prepared.

Start selectively transcribing according to your own schedule.

Skip the various technical information and directions already in your own booklet, and skip the predictions and judgments of Emperor Shizu about the future.

It retains the thinking and analysis of Emperor Guangwu in society, economy, and history.

Zhu Jingyuan was busy in the office for three days in a row, completing the rearrangement of the ancestors' relics.

Then I put these books, which are almost 200 years old, together with a new book of techniques and ideas and thoughts that I have recorded.

I re-compared and looked at it again, and I made sure that I had copied everything that needed to be kept.

Then when he was about to officially destroy the body of the ancestor's posthumous chapter, Zhu Jingyuan suddenly had another idea in his heart.

Zhu Jingyuan looked through the booklet he had written again.

"It seems that the contents of this note do not need to be left to future generations......"

Zhu Jingyuan himself Chinese New Year's Eve six years old today, and if nothing happens in the future, he can still be the emperor for twenty-four years.

You should live for thirty to forty years, maybe even fifty to sixty years.

Under his own direct guidance, it should not be a problem for Daming to reproduce all the knowledge and techniques he knew in his previous life within forty years.

In other words, one's experience as a traverser may only be of some use in one's own life.

Whether it's space exploration or biotechnology, whether it's semiconductors or mobile communications.

The memories and experiences related to him will be basically used up before he dies, and there is no way to mention future generations.

I can't make a relatively reasonable prediction about the more distant future.

The current situation of the Ming Dynasty is completely different from any period in the original human history.

We have now entered a new historical period that has never been seen before.

By the time he dies, the development of the entire Ming Dynasty and even the world should far exceed the situation before his previous life.

What I can stay behind should only be some thoughts and ideas, and they are not necessarily correct thoughts and concepts.

So do these pamphlets I am writing now still have any important role for Daming?

It can only be used as a note to avoid forgetting.

Although I feel that the plot of this book should be over, I always find some details that I want to add when I think about it every day, or I find that the things I want to force are not finished.

(End of chapter)
