Chapter 249: The Age of Hengjing
When simulating this paragraph, Zhu Di seemed to be immersive, and resonance rose in his heart, although it was a simple text, he seemed to have seen a looming figure.
In front of him, a young man standing with black pure eyes, heroic and dignified, wearing a dragon robe, with a barrier knife at his waist, there seemed to be thousands of troops and horses behind him, and the voices of people roared and the horses roared.
With the flickering of light and shadow, the figure of the young man dissipated, and the thousands of troops and horses seemed to have never appeared. turned to only the old man in a red dragon robe, similar to Zhu Di, with white beard and silver hair, as if there was a mist, and his breathtaking eyes made people dare not look directly, not angry and arrogant.
Spanning time and space, Emperor Hengjing glanced back and looked at Emperor Yongle.
[After Su Wen and Su Wu left, your father left you alone, and you became more and more uneasy in your heart, and you didn't know what your father was planning. 】
[You are not a very bad heir, on the contrary, you are very good, you have had the ability to never forget since you were a child, young and old, whether it is government affairs or military affairs, you can draw inferences and insight into people's hearts, even Su Ge Lao, who taught you, couldn't help but sigh when you were thirteen years old: "The prince can already be a teacher, and the minister's skills have already been learned by you, and there is nothing to teach." ”】
[After the thirteen-year-old in government affairs, my father asked you to worship the British general Zhang Fu as a teacher, learn the way of using soldiers, and in the next ten years, you led the Ming army to fight in the south and the north, and successively destroyed the Timurid Empire, the Golden Horde and other large countries, and made immortal contributions to the expansion of the territory of the Ming Dynasty. 】
[Despite this, you are still in fear all day long, worried that you will not be recognized by your father, because your father's light is too dazzling, and the dazzling makes everyone feel inferior, and you are his son, the heir of the Ming Dynasty, and the person who is most seriously affected by this emotion. 】
[Stupid people don't think, this is actually a kind of happiness, if you don't think, you won't be miserable, and you, because you think too much, will feel more and more sad. 】
[Even if everyone thinks that you, the crown prince, are the most talented person in the Ming Dynasty and the only one who is qualified to inherit the great cause of Hengjing, you still feel that you are not worthy of virtue. 】
Emperor Hengjing's crown prince Zhu Zhanqi seems to be beautiful, but in fact there are words of suffering.
The position of the prince is the foundation of the country, it is precisely because the light of Emperor Hengjing is too dazzling that his prince feels uneasy, sometimes the sun is too dazzling, it will burn others, and Zhu Zhanqi is the person closest to the sun of Emperor Hengjing, and it is also the person who is most likely to be burned.
The alarm bell rang in Zhu Di's heart: "Is it possible, is the fourth child going to raise his crown prince?" ”
This kind of thing is not without precedent, and it is Zhu Di's own brother, his good big brother.
- Prince Yiwen, Zhu Biao.
Including Zhu Di, everyone felt that the crown prince Zhu Biao was virtuous, benevolent, talented, and had tough political methods, and was the most suitable heir to Zhu Yuanzhang.
However, Zhu Biao himself does not necessarily think so.
He is very good, but there is someone more excellent than him, that is his father Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang is like a Hongri, illuminating the Central Plains that has been trampled by aliens for a hundred years with his light, his political methods make everyone feel frightened, and Zhu Biao is also too close to this round of sun, feeling the powerlessness of the pain.
Even Zhu Di himself felt scared when he dreamed of Zhu Yuanzhang, he didn't know how heavy the pressure of his eldest brother Zhu Biao should be.
He still remembers that when he saw Zhu Biao for the last time, the eldest brother was no longer as confident and heroic as he was back then, but a strange state, difficult to describe in words, as if he was covered with a layer of gloomy emotions.
Although Zhu Di knew that Zhu Biao died of illness after inspecting Xi'an, according to Zhu Di's guess, the reason why his eldest brother Zhu Biao died young actually had a lot to do with the huge pressure he was carrying.
Now the prince of the Hengjing Dynasty, Zhu Zhanqi, is very similar to the prince Zhu Biao of the Hongwu Dynasty.
[The father rubbed his eyebrows and asked lightly: "Two countries, do you have something on your mind?" ”】
["Liangliang" is your nickname, since you were made the crown prince, your father rarely calls you by your nickname, only when there is no one in private, your father will use this affectionate name. 】
[You hesitated for a long time before replying: "Father, the son thinks ...... He couldn't afford the position of the crown prince, and his son disappointed his father. ”】
[Emperor Hengjing was silent for a while and asked, "Do you think that I was hinting at you by abdicating Su Wu just now?" ”】
[You hurriedly said: "Erchen doesn't dare.] ”】
"You're thinking too much. The emperor sighed, "Two countries, you have been smart since childhood, young and old, when children of the same age were still playing with mud pile villains, you have already begun to discuss the concept of governing the country with Su Wu." Sometimes, thinking too much is not a good thing, I can tell you very clearly, in my heart, the only person who can inherit the Ming Dynasty is you, I have never thought of letting others inherit the throne. ”】
[You said bitterly: "My father has three sons and one daughter, and the second brother is brave and strategic, and he is like my father. The third brother is smart and polite, and he has a seven-trick exquisite heart, and even the eldest sister is a heroine and a general among women, and her sons are incompetent, which disappoints her father. ”】
[Father is silent, you don't know what your father is thinking, maybe in your father's eyes, you are a dou who can't be helped, cowardly and incompetent. 】
[Suddenly, there was a noise in the hall, and your father slapped you in the face, and you covered your red and swollen face a little confused, and you were stunned by this slap. 】
[In between, my father lifted a barrier knife from the shelf on the side, moved his wrist slightly, and threw out the scabbard, exposing the narrow silver blade. Father walked towards you with a sword with a blank face, and you were so frightened that you took a few steps back: "Father, father!" I am your son, what does my father mean by this, what is the crime of his son, and even caused my father to be so angry! ”】
[Although my father is already a sixty-year-old man, he is holding a long knife, but he has the might of a veteran, and his long beard moves slightly, you have no doubt that my father can still fight on his horse at this time, wielding a knife and slashing the enemy. 】
[My father asked, "Are you serious about what you just said?" ”】
[You gritted your teeth, stopped retreating, stretched out your arms and said: "Father, if you want to kill, kill it, if the son of the minister disappoints you, be a ghost of the father's sword, and the son will not complain." ”】
[However, in the end, you still didn't wait for your father's blade. 】
[My father stroked the blade of the obstacle knife and said leisurely: "I hold this knife, Fu Jigang, capture the King of Han, attack Mobei, destroy Jianzhou, go deep into Goryeo, reach Yingzhou, crisscross the world, invincible...... Live up to the ambition of a great husband! ”】
[Father said: "I have doubted many people, but I have never doubted myself, if you don't even believe in yourself, how can you achieve great things!" ”】
[You were stunned for a moment, and sighed: "The difficulties of life are like the endless long river, although you have the ambition to go east to the sea, but the process is slow and the journey is difficult. However, there is always a time when the river water enters the sea, but the ambition of life is often difficult to achieve, which makes people hate for life. ”】
["If you don't do it, how do you know you can't do it?" Father shouted, "The national fortune of the Ming Dynasty is on you, and the survival of tens of thousands of Li people is pinned on you, Zhu Zhanqi, you can surrender without a fight!" ”】
[Father's sudden shout is like drinking your soul back from a dream, shaking your heart and waking you up from your slumber. 】
[Father continued to ask: "Su Wen has been a general for a long time, and he has tens of thousands of soldiers in the Twelve Guards of Mobei, if I am here, then the north is at ease, and I am not here, how can you submit to him?" ”】
[At this time, you were regained by your father's shout just now, and said proudly: "At the age of thirteen, the son fought with the British general Zhang Fuda, got on the horse and galloped on the battlefield, did not taste a defeat, and led 500,000 troops to destroy Timur? What about Su Wen, the Duke of Mengguo, and what about the Twelve Guards of Mobei, I can calm down with a snap of my fingers! ”】
[Father asked again: "Su Wu is in charge of the cabinet of six ministries and nine secretaries, and the officials in Beijing regard him as respectful, if I am here, then the officials in Beijing are prostrate, and I am not there, how can you submit to him?" ”】
[You said: "Half of the officials in the DPRK and China were promoted by me, looking at the provincial capitals and counties of the Ming Dynasty, the officials of the East Palace occupy the world's style, on wisdom, on heritage, on the city government, I don't lose anyone!] ”】
[Father smiled with relief: "In that case, why be afraid? The prince has grown up, I am very relieved, there are entrusted people in this world, I can sleep with peace of mind. ”】
Emperor Hengjing is not Emperor Yongle, Zhu Gaoxian does not have a simulator, he is taking a road that has never been seen before, he has laid a great empire, if you don't want this empire to be a flash in the pan in the long river of history, you need to cultivate an excellent heir.
Human life is so short, and if you want to do infinite things in a limited time, you will eventually turn into withered petals, drifting in the wind and not knowing where to go.
Looking up, the sky is full of stars, and you want to drink wine and invite the moon to get drunk.
[In the middle of the thirtieth year of Hengjing, after 30 years of ups and downs in the lifeline of the dynasty, Zaifu Su Wu resigned from the positions of the first assistant of the cabinet, the imperial history of the left capital, and the secretary of the household department, retained the honor of the prince and the prince, returned to his hometown in Fujian to live in seclusion, died a good death, and posthumously presented the Taishi, Rongguo Gong, and Zhen Wenzheng. 】
[At the beginning of the thirty-first year of Hengjing, Su Wen, the Duke of Mengguo, resigned from his position as a general, returned the military power to the emperor, returned to his hometown in Fujian, built a Guogong Mansion in his hometown, and was able to die a good death, and posthumously crowned the king of Mobei after his death. 】
[At the end of the thirty-first year of Hengjing, the commander of Jinyiwei made Lv Chaoyang resign from his post and returned to his hometown in Guangxi, and was able to die a good death, which is also the only commander of Jinyiwei who died well, reigned for forty years, and was posthumously crowned the Duke of Gui Guogong after his death, and then posthumously named the king of Lingchuan. 】
[The era of Hengjing has come to an end, but in the long history, it will always leave a bright page for the prosperity of Hengjing, and you are a witness of this era. 】
[You have seen giants with your own eyes, supporting the sky with blood!] 】
[Eternal as the moon, majestic as the sun, that giant, is respected by later generations as the Emperor Hengjing! ] 】
[Zhu Zhanyu's random identity fragment simulation ends.] 】
After reading this paragraph, Zhu Di was fascinated.
What he saw this time was a completely different King of Qi from the past, no, to be precise, Emperor Hengjing.
An old emperor, a young crown prince, the end of an era.
Emperor Hengjing, who has come to the end of his life, controls the Ming Dynasty with one hand, and deduces the direction of the Ming Dynasty after his death with the other hand.
Zhu Di suddenly realized something, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Little orange, Tang Cheng, where the hell are you hiding, get out of here!" ”
When Tang Cheng heard the emperor's voice, he ran over with a rolling belt, without the demeanor of a great eunuch: "The slave is here, what does Your Majesty command?" ”
Zhu Di crossed his hands on his hips and said, "Prepare for the drive, I want to go and see my good holy grandson!" ”
Tang Cheng was stunned: "Is the emperor going to Jiangxi?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Tang Gong thought that this good saint grandson referred to Zhu Zhanji, the son of King Gan, after all, Xie Jin's sentence "good saint grandson Kewang three generations" left a deep impression on people, and when he mentioned the good saint grandson, he remembered Zhu Zhanji, and when he mentioned Zhu Zhanji, he remembered Xie Jin, and when he thought of Xie Jin, he remembered to play the board......
Zhu Di asked rhetorically: "Who said I was going to Jiangxi?" ”
Tang Cheng was a little puzzled: "Could it be that what Your Majesty is talking about is not the prince of King Gan?" ”
"What is the prince of Gan, I am talking about Zhu Zhanqi, the prince of King Qi!"
Zhu Di came back to his senses, "His mother's Xie Jin, this thief was mistaken, and the Ming Dynasty that was almost harmed was passed to the hands of the Son of Heaven, mother, the more I think about it, the more angry I become, where is Xie Jin now?" ”
Tang Cheng replied, "Uh...... Xie Jin is still locked up in Zhao Prison. ”
Zhu Di waved his hand: "Go, pass the order to Jinyi Wei Lu Chaoyang, and let him ruthlessly put Xie Jin on a twenty-big board!" ”
Tang Cheng lit an incense stick in his heart and mourned in silence for the scholar in Zhaojiao.
……
Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Yamen, Zhao Prison.
"What year is tonight, oh, tonight is the fifteenth year of Yongle."
In the gloomy Zhao Prison, Xie Jin held a dry grass root in his mouth, lying on the muddy couch, boring to pass the time, "I don't know if the prince forgot my old uncle, why didn't anyone tell me, hey......"
Bachelor Xie is really miserable, he has been squatting in this Zhao Prison for so many years, and no one cares about him, and there is nothing to pass the time in Zhao Prison, which makes Bachelor Xie so bored.
"Bachelor Xie, is Bachelor Xie still alive?"
Hearing a small greeting in his ears, Xie Jin jumped up from the couch: "Xie is here." ”
"Oh, it's great that you're still alive, Master."
The man opened the chain on the prison door and walked in, Xie Jin looked at it fixedly, and it was still an acquaintance: "Lord Lu? ”
The person who came was Lu Chaoyang, and Reconciliation Jin was also an acquaintance, after all, when Ji Gang conspiracy was in the case, Lu Chaoyang also came to Zhao Prison to squat, and Mr. Reconciliation was considered a cellmate.
It's just that Lu Chaoyang didn't have the ability to solve Jin, he squatted for a few months and was released, and Xie Jin's squatting is counted in years, and his ability to squat in prison is really admirable.
Zhao Prison is under the management of Lu Chaoyang, so after Lao Lu was released from prison, he took care of Xie Jin, a fellow inmate, at least Mr. Xie would no longer have maggots in his daily diet, and even occasionally there would be a book of sages to cultivate his sentiments.
Xie Jin rubbed his hands expectantly: "Master Lu, are you still here to deliver books this time?" I can memorize Mr. Yangxiong's book last time, but I wonder which Confucian's book is this time? ”
Lu Chaoyang groaned: "Bachelor Xie, this time I sent His Majesty's will, let me beat you with twenty boards." ”
Xie Jin was dumbfounded: "Again?" Endless? ”
Why is it that when His Majesty the Emperor thinks of me Xie Jin, he wants to beat me up?
You can say that you want my life in particular, but please don't torture me!
