Chapter 87 - Laozi Sapphire

It's drizzling, crackling.

The spring rain in May falls on earth, like an elves falling into the mortal world, dancing and jumping between the world.

Spring rain is as precious as oil, and the precious spring rain represents a bumper harvest, hope and joy. No matter where the raindrops jump, people will look at it and follow it with a smile and happy gaze.

But here, it's not.

The raindrops fell on the bright yellow glazed tiles. Before they could bloom and jump, they turned into clear water, silently flowing from the gaps of the glazed tiles to the bronze water pipes, and then silently discharged into the canal covered with bluestone slabs.

This is the most supreme place on earth. Even among all human civilizations in this world, the most powerful, noble and glorious place.

This is the palace city of the Ming Empire and the Forbidden City of Yingtian (Nanjing).

This is the most solemn and solemn place in the world, and there is no trace of joy at this moment. Moreover, the palace is covered with plain white, and when you look around, it is full of shocking white. The glorious palaces are filled with depressing crying.

Bai, in the hearts of Chinese people, represents holiness. But at the same time, it also represents death.

The crown prince of the Ming Empire and the first heir to the throne, died of illness early this morning.

This prince was the eldest son born to Emperor Hongwu and Empress of the Ming Dynasty. In this era when Confucian orthodoxism was emphasized, his origin was determined by the sole heir to the Ming Dynasty.

Dad died at the beginning! Didn’t he play with me?

In a room in Feng'an Hall, where the prince is located, Zhang Hao looked at the familiar and unfamiliar face and his thin body in the bronze mirror.

His fair fingers stretched out, as if he was a little unbelievable. He gently touched his young face and immediately shrank back like an electric shock.

Then a different kind of brilliance quickly appeared in the cowardly eyes in the mirror, and the boy in the mirror suddenly grinned.

It turns out that I am not dead!

Zhang Hao stretched out his hand again, touching his new face a little greedily.

In my memory, he had already died in a car accident. The last scene he saw was the anxious face of the doctor. But his soul had traveled through hundreds of years and fell on this young man who fainted due to his father's death.

The young man in the mirror, Zhang Hao's new name, is Zhu Yunsheng.

Memories in the mind come one after another, and memories from past and present are slowly merged.

This is the most noble name of the Ming Empire and also represents the most prominent bloodline among the Ming royal family.

The Prince of the Ming Dynasty who died of illness today is Zhu Yunyu's father.

Zhu Yunxiu, the legitimate grandson of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, and the second legitimate son of Zhu Biao, the prince of the Ming Dynasty.

In this era, the word "正" represents orthodoxy and represents the right to inheritance.

His mother was a hero of the founding country of the Ming Dynasty, the daughter of Kaiping King Chang Yuchun. After being elected as the crown princess, she gave birth to the first eldest son and grandson for the Ming Dynasty royal family, Zhu Yunying's elder brother Zhu Xiongying. However, Zhu Xiongying was weak and sick. For the sake of the bloodline of the royal family, Chang gave birth to his second legitimate son, Zhu Yunying.

Four years later, Zhu Xiongying died young, and the Chang family was unfortunately passed away. While Zhu Yunyu became a motherless child, he also became the only legal grandson of the Ming Dynasty royal family.

Zhu Yuanzhang's legitimate grandson! Zhu Yunxiu looked at his face in the mirror and smiled satisfied. This identity is good!

But then, his smile immediately frozen.

He was Zhu Yunwen, not Zhu Yunwen. Because in the near future, a few years later, a generation of genius Zhu Yuanzhang returned to heaven and ascended the throne of Emperor Ming, but Zhu Yunwen, not him.

Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunwen wanted to call him second brother.

His biological mother was born in a humble origin and was a concubine's concubine. The son she gave birth to was a concubine's son.

After Zhu Yunyu's mother passed away, this concubine, who was not of high origin, was promoted to the official concubine because of her good deeds and tactfulness, and Zhu Biao had no intention of accepting a new concubine.

She was helped to the right, and her son Zhu Yunwen was noble because of his mother and was one year older than Zhu Yunsheng, so he became Zhu Biao's nominal eldest son.

However, in the eyes of the ministers, he was just the eldest son of the sacred family. Zhu Yunqiu was the one with the most noble bloodline and the most inheritance.

But the soul who came from later generations knew that in history, Zhu Yunwen was the one who really sat on the dragon throne, and his reign was Jianwen.

You should know that among the feudal dynasties, the most important thing is the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate. Legitimate represents orthodoxy, and in the original time and space, whether it was Emperor Jianwen or later Emperor Yongle, he had never relaxed his defense against Zhu Yunsheng, the legitimate son after ascending the throne.

Zhu Yunxiu, Emperor Hongwu, was named King of Wu before his death.

Wu was the king's title before Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne. Wu was in Jiangnan and was the most prosperous place in the world, which shows Zhu Yuanzhang's love for this grandson.

However, after Jianwen ascended the throne, he did not let his younger brother go to the fiefdom and was locked up in the palace.

After the Yan King Zhu Di launched the Jingshen and became Emperor Yongle, what was waiting for Zhu Yunxi was a cold ban.

His identity is too noble and too legitimate. Therefore, no one of the two emperors is at ease with him.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxiu's young and beautiful face in the mirror frowned slightly. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang choose a concubine's grandson instead of a legitimate grandson?

The brain was a little painful, and the dusty memory seemed to give the new Zhu Yunxi an answer.

The owner of this body, Zhu Yunxi, the original Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, has noble blood, but he is an A Dou who cannot be helped.

He is weak and doesn't like to study. Because he lost his mother since childhood, he has a weak personality and is submissive without any opinion. Sometimes, he can't even speak clearly when he is nervous. However, in private, he is naughty, irritable and mean.

Who is Zhu Yuanzhang?

A generation of outstanding people, a generation of geniuses, a generation of heroes, and an emperor through the ages!

The emperor with the lowest origins in Chinese history started from scratch and defeated the unparalleled Mongols, creating the Ming Empire that was once in a 300-year splendid and splendid Ming Empire.

Since ancient times, Zhu Yuanzhang has achieved the right to the country.

He was not a minister who was usurped the throne, nor was he a rebellious minister from the previous dynasty. He was not a nobleman, nor a family of military generals from generation to generation.

He is the child of ordinary people!

Because I can't eat enough, because I have no way to survive, and because of the chaos in the world, I joined the rebel army.

However, in the eyes of many so-called experts and intellectuals in later generations, he was a tyrant.

Because he hated corrupt officials, he skinned corrupt officials for more than fifty taels of silver, lit sky lanterns for more than one hundred taels, and used the human skin of corrupt officials to make a drum for the people to make a complaint.

Because in his later years, he slaughtered heroes and criticized officials in the world for the sake of stability.

Moreover, because Zhu Yuanzhang was an emperor with a clear class stance. Even if he became an emperor, he always regarded himself as a suffering ordinary person in his heart. He always stood on the side of the people and uphold justice for the people of the world.

Therefore, those smug literati in later generations called him a tyrant.

However, no matter who it is, it cannot be ignored or denied that Zhu Yuanzhang's greatness.

Such a great monarch was not only great in civil and military affairs, but also in family affection. He loved all his children deeply and hoped that they would become successful. He hired famous teachers to teach them since childhood, and taught them by example and deeds to educate his children to be simple and family-oriented and not to enjoy themselves.

In Zhu Yunyu's memory, Zhu Yuanzhang always had coarse cloth clothes, and for several years, the cuffs were grinding until they turned white and opened.

Such an emperor can be a jackal, a tiger or a leopard, a general who traverses the desert and fights the Hu people, or a gentleman who is strategist and a place above the temple.

But you must not be a coward who is unscrupulous and has a weak personality.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxiu's mind showed the scene of Zhu Yuanzhang meeting him on weekdays. Every time he saw him, Zhu Yuanzhang's loving eyes always had some heart-wrenching regret.

These days, a tiger father has no dog son, and my hero son must also be a hero.

The answer to Zhu Yunxiu's failure to become the emperor is about to emerge. How could a hero like Zhu Yuanzhang give the throne a cowardly grandson with many flaws in his personality? Even in the Confucian orthodox orthodox, he is the legitimate grandson who cannot be more righteous and respected!

The legitimate grandson is heavy, and the country is even heavier!

So in the end, the country was given to Zhu Yunwen. The richest King of Wu, the most orthodox throne, was given to the legitimate grandson.

No wonder others! You blame yourself!

Zhu Yunxiu looked at himself in the mirror and smiled, "If you don't do your best, how could your grandfather give you the throne!"

As he smiled, Zhu Yunxi's smile restrained. A sharp light shone in his eyes.

Since I have come to this world and become the most noble grandson, I will never let the throne of the Ming Dynasty slip away!
