Chapter 94: Who Can Be the First Emperor of the Ages?
"Miss Xue? I haven't heard of it. ”
Lin Daiyu started from her departure in Yangzhou City, taking a boat along the Grand Canal to Beijing.
"The Grand Canal?"
Li Shimin finally heard what he was familiar with and asked, "Is it the Grand Canal dug by Emperor Yang Guang of Sui?" To the north or to the south? ”
"To the north, Jingshi is in Beiping Mansion."
"Beiping in Youzhou?"
From Sister Lin's words, and then contacting the end point of the Grand Canal to the north, Li Qingzhao finally figured out where Beiping Mansion was.
She said with a smile: "The Grand Canal to the north is to Zhuojun in the Sui Dynasty, and to the Great Song Dynasty, because... Youzhou was occupied by Liao thieves, and Liao thieves built Nanjing Road in Youzhou, so it is also called Nanjing. ”
The Great Song Dynasty had four capitals, east, west, north and south, but the Yingtianfu Nanjing of the Song Dynasty was different from Zhu Yuanzhang's Yingtianfu Nanjing, and the distance between the two places was three or four hundred kilometers.
Coincidentally, the Liao Dynasty also divided the five capitals, upper, central, eastern, southern, and western, and the south of the Liao Dynasty was Beiping.
Beiping was changed after Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition to the Yuan Dynasty won the Yuan Dynasty, and later Zhu Di set the capital here and changed its name to Bei-Beijing.
"The canals dredged and dug in the Sui Dynasty are still in use in later generations?"
Li Shimin sighed a lot.
Yang Guang designed to seize the crown prince, and after ascending the throne, he recruited millions of people to build the Grand Canal.
Although he did not see it with his own eyes, he also knew the events of the year from the people around him, building the Grand Canal, personally conquering Goguryeo three times, and building the eastern capital Luoyang.
Up to now, Yang Guang was strangled by Yu Wenhua, and the Sui Dynasty was almost destroyed.
"The merits of the Grand Canal are in the future, and the disadvantages are in the contemporary. Of course, later generations also repaired and re-excavated the Grand Canal many times, which was very different from that of the Sui Dynasty. ”
Chu Zhen commented: "Regardless of Yang Guang's faults, his exploits are far inferior to Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages. ”
"Qin Shi Huang is the first emperor of the ages?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him with a shocked face.
Li Shimin also looked at Chu Zhen, he had heard Mr. Chu say that Yang Guang, the first emperor of the ages, but at that time he must have been joking.
"The First Emperor has such a revered status here in Chu Langjun?"
Li Qingzhao was also quite curious.
Chu Zhen looked at them, there was no doubt that the four ancient people, including Lin Daiyu, did not have a good evaluation of Qin Shi Huang.
In the imperial temple built by Zhu Yuanzhang, in addition to the three emperors and five emperors, there are also Han Gaozu, Tang Taizong, Song Taizu, except for Tang Taizong, all of whom are founding emperors.
But there was no Qin Shi Huang.
The imperial temple of the Shun Dynasty is estimated to have no Qin Shi Huang.
The ancients' evaluation of the first emperor was mostly negative, which was different from that of today's people.
"Qin Shi Huang deserves to be the first emperor of the ages."
Chu Zhen said affirmatively.
"Why?"
Li Shimin disagreed with Mr. Chu's opinion, "The Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty Wu Tuo Ding Frontier was meritorious, but the first emperor was tyrannical and died; The Han Dynasty is arrogant and extravagant, and the country is unique.
If anyone can be called the first emperor of the ages, except for the three emperors and five emperors of the ancients, I only choose Emperor Wen. ”
"Emperor Wen?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Shimin and suddenly laughed.
"Who do you choose to be the Emperor of the Ages?"
Chu Zhen asked them with a smile.
"Tang-Song Taizu!"
Li Qingzhao, who almost said a certain emperor of the Tang Dynasty, changed his words in time and pushed the Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty to the position of the first emperor of the ages.
If she doesn't push, no one will do.
Chu Zhen laughed: "Zhao Kuangyin ended the troubled times of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and created a three-hundred-year foundation of the Song Dynasty. ”
In other words, Song Taizu is not up to the first emperor of the ages.
Li Qingzhao glanced at him resentfully, pursed his lips and did not speak.
Lin Daiyu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, and looked at Chu Zhen with her eyes:
"If I say that Shun Taizu resisted Jin Kou to the south, saved the Han people in Jiangnan from the war, recovered the capital of Beijing, and re-established the capital of Beiping, his merits can be the first emperor through the ages, and he will inevitably become tacky like his sister.
Uncle Chu asked me to choose, then I will choose Emperor Hongwu, who has the same merits as Shun Taizu. ”

"I am the first emperor of the ages? Hahaha! The little girl has a good eye. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was also not modest, and laughed at the "Emperor of the Ages" high hat handed over by Lin Daiyu.
The results are in.
Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Tang Taizong, Song Taizu, Zhu Yuanzhang each had one vote, and Shun Taizu was tied - Sister Lin voted two votes alone.
Chu Zhen said with a smile: "From ancient times to the present, those who evaluate emperors and generals are nothing more than commenting on cultural governance and martial arts, and personal personal morality is basically not considered. It's just that in modern times, martial arts are far more respected than Wenzhi. ”
"Martial arts...... Private morality. ”
Li Shimin suddenly fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.
Chu Zhen pointed to the map on the wall and said: "Today's China can stand majestically in the jungle of the world as a whole, and Qin Shihuang has made great contributions to the unification of the six kingdoms and created a two-thousand-year imperial era. ”
"No wonder you say that it is an immortal achievement to collect Liaodong in Yunnan and occupy Xiaoliuqiu."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map of China, and there was a strong desire to expand the territory in his eyes.
"Yes!"
Chu Zhen said: "If the national strength allows, every inch of land will be contested. Even if it is a barren place, as long as it can be defended, it must be occupied, after all, we don't know whether there are minerals, oil, coal, natural gas, etc. buried under those lands. ”
"The bigger the territory, the better the strategic depth."
"Those who took the land that the soldiers had fought hard to defeat and then handed it back are not highly regarded in contemporary times, and are even spurned and reviled."
After Chu Zhen finished speaking, several people were silent for a while.
They may not understand what oil and gas are, they don't pay much attention to coal, and there are enough minerals, but they all understand the saying that the land of their ancestors cannot be lost.
The Song Dynasty was weak, but it still missed the sixteen states of Youyun.
Soon after Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he waved his army to the Northern Expedition, which was also bound to win the land of Liaodong, and he made five Northern Expeditions before and after to sweep away the remnants of the Mengyuan and Yuan forces.
The Shun Dynasty is still in a confrontation with the Jin State.
Tang dynasty...... The world is undecided, so let's not talk about Erlang for the time being.
"In this way...... Li Qingzhao asked Chu Zhen: "Duke Wen ceded the land under Yuanfeng's Western Expedition to Western Xia, and was severely criticized by later generations?" ”
"Sima Guang returned the land that was beaten down by 200,000 soldiers, and modern people do not have a high opinion of him."
Chu Zhen said: "But considering the force of the Song Dynasty...... It may be difficult to hold on to the land. ”
Li Qingzhao was ashamed.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "In the Song Dynasty, since the Battle of Emperor Taizong's Gaoliang River, force has not been enough. ”
Li Qingzhao opened his mouth and had nothing to say.
Chu Zhen couldn't hold back a laugh and didn't say a certain nickname of Taizong of the Great Song Dynasty.
"How do I rate?"
Li Shimin asked suddenly.
The four of them looked at him in unison.
"I... This, yes, is just that when he heard Taizong, he asked casually. ”
The young fierce general, his face turned red rarely, and Zhiwu said.
Li Qingzhao and Lin Daiyu covered their mouths and laughed together, Zhu Yuanzhang was also overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Tang Taizong created a prosperous era of Zhenguan, and the Quartet Yidi respected him as the Khan of the Heavens, and I admired him very much.
But Li Jiajilang can't. ”
The last sentence took a sharp turn and almost broke Li Shimin's waist.
Chu Zhen drank tea to hide the expression on his face that was smiling heavily, and said: "Erlang will take down the world first, let the troubled times end soon, and he will also be able to go down in history." ”
Leaving a name in history may not be enough for today's King Qin.
Li Shimin couldn't help but ask: "If I calm the world and get grain, seeds, medical books and other things from Mr. Chu, the people will be rich, and the sick will have medical treatment...... At that time, I wonder if my father will make me the crown prince? ”
He had anticipation in his heart.
I expect that I will be made the crown prince by my father because of my merits.
Before Chu Zhen could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Recently, I have been thinking about whether to remove Tang Taizong from the Imperial Temple. ”
Li Shimin: "......"
You move yours, don't ask me.
Chu Zhen smiled and did not answer Li Shimin's childish question.
Even he could hear the naivety.
