[Your army trapped 300,000 imperial elites in cages formed by cutting off battlefields one after another. If nothing happens, these 300,000 elites will be devoured one after another. This is already a dead game. 】
[Emperor Xuande was no stranger to this situation.]
[When conquering the entire southern territory, Qi Division's method of cutting up the battlefield was not uncommon. It can even be said to be their best tactic. They cut a piece of barbecue that is difficult to swallow into small pieces and then eat it bit by bit.
.Facing this situation of being surrounded layer by layer, the soldiers had no morale at all, and most of them surrendered to Qi Division.】
[King Qi was originally the legitimate son of Emperor Taizong Wen. He surrendered to the Zhu family. There was no psychological burden at all. His commanding skills were inferior to others. Because of this, King Qi’s army was able to expand rapidly in a short period of time and capture the captured imperial troops.
Recruitment. If King Qi is defeated, his sergeants will also surrender to the court.】
【It’s just that the winner is King Qi.】
【The trapped beast still fights, it’s like the emperor.】
[Emperor Xuande will never allow himself to suffer such a humiliating defeat. He has the dignity of an emperor, and the arrogance in the bones of the Zhu family does not allow him to just sit back and wait numbly for death!]
[He gathered all the tribesmen he could, personally led the Twelve Guards guarding the old camp, and launched a final desperate breakout! 】
[Emperor Xuande wants to die standing up!]
[Things are unpredictable. Emperor Xuande, who wanted to die on the battlefield, was surrounded at all levels. The elite of the twelve imperial guards were wiped out. In the end, only Emperor Xuande was left to fight alone. Ignoring the dissuasion of everyone, you rushed towards the city with a sword.
Emperor Xuande.】
[Even when Emperor Xuande was in his prime, he was no match for your ten thousand enemies. What's more, now that you are exhausted, you easily knocked the sword from Emperor Xuande's hand and chopped him off his horse.]
【But you didn't kill him.】
[You are riding on a horse, holding the tip of your knife against Emperor Xuande's throat, your eyes filled with indifference.]
[Emperor Xuande closed his eyes, waiting for a clean death.]
[However, he waited for a long time, but the cold blade never came. 】
[Emperor Xuande opened his eyes and saw King Qi jokingly saying: "Nephew, are you going to cry, oooooooo~~ Do you think I can imitate him like you?"]
[Emperor Xuande was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect that the opponent who defeated him would be such a fool.]
[He was so angry that he wanted to pick up the tip of the sword and kill himself to avoid being ridiculed by King Qi. However, you mercilessly knocked the sword from Emperor Xuande's hand away again, and with the knife in his hand, blood spilled from Emperor Xuande's wrist.
】
[You ride on a horse and walk around Emperor Xuande. No one around the soldiers dares to approach. You say leisurely: "To be honest, if you were still a grandson or a prince, I would chop off your head without hesitation."
Come down. As for whether the history books of future generations will record my infamy for killing my relatives, it doesn't matter. Success is the king's failure, and when the old man rebelled, he was already ready to kill Emperor Jianwen."]
Zhu Di: "...No, I'm not ready for this."
When Jing Nan attacked Nanjing, his original intention was to capture Emperor Jianwen alive and let Emperor Jianwen give him the Zen position "from the bottom of his heart". Then he made a symbolic concession and declined Emperor Jianwen's kindness.
He himself became the regent in a down-to-earth manner.
After that, Emperor Jianwen was allowed to survive for a few months. One day, Emperor Jianwen got playful and invited the regent Zhu Di to go to Xuanwu Lake with him. Unfortunately, he fell into the water and drowned. Before his death, he happened to leave a legacy to pass the throne to Zhu Di.
Despite the support of the ministers, Zhu Di still refused to ascend the throne, saying that although Emperor Jianwen drowned, he still had surviving heirs. Coincidentally, Emperor Jianwen's queen and heirs all died of various reasons within a few months after Emperor Jianwen drowned.
A country cannot be without a master for a day, but Emperor Jianwen has no sons alive. For the sake of the stability of the country, Zhu Di was forced to be crowned and ascended the throne in accordance with the wishes of the people.
In this way, the right person will ascend to the throne.
However, due to the sophistry of the world, Zhu Di's imaginary words flowed from his mouth outside the palace gate. Finally, someone told him that there was a fire in the Qianqing Palace. Only then did he realize that the fun was getting too big and rushed into the palace. Unexpectedly, Emperor Jianwen had already He ran away, and the old man regretted it.
Nephew! How can I survive if you leave? Come back quickly and let me stab you twice!
[You said: "But you are the emperor, you can't die like this. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty died in the same way as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. How can the emperor kill himself with a sword?"]
[Emperor Xuande smiled bitterly: "Thank you."]
[You nodded slightly: "You're welcome, we are all family, as we should be. The people who owe me debts are your grandfather, your father, and your second uncle. They have nothing to do with you, and I will not hold them accountable."]
[Emperor Xuande said calmly: "There is three feet of white silk, give it to me."]
[You were stopped by this question: "What three-foot white silk?"]
[Emperor Xuande was also stunned: "Don't you want me to hang myself with three feet of white silk? You said it yourself. How can the emperor use a sword to kill me? Why, you regretted it?"]
[You suddenly realized and said: "You may have misunderstood me. The emperor of Ming Dynasty did not die in this way. What I want to say is that I will ask you to write a succession edict and meditate on me, and then choose a good day to go and fall into the water by yourself." Drown."]
[Three feet of white silk was the way to die for Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, and falling into the water and drowning was the correct way for the Ming Emperor to die.]
Zhu Di touched his chin: "I am the fourth type."
[Emperor Xuande: "..."]
[He held it in for a long time and then asked: "Why should I help you, a rebel?"]
[You shook your head: "You have no choice. If you don't help me, I won't let your father be buried."]
[Emperor Xuande succeeded to the throne in the military camp. If he did not return to Beijing, no one would be qualified to preside over the funeral affairs of Emperor Hongxi. Therefore, the remains of Emperor Hongxi have not been placed in the mausoleum. This is something that cannot be helped. Now The Ming Dynasty faced violent storms that shook the mountains and rivers, and could only delay the funeral of Emperor Hongxi again and again.】
[Emperor Xuande was shocked: "How could you do such a thing? He is your brother. If you can do such a thing, the whole world will criticize you with words and writings!"]
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! [You smiled disdainfully and said: "If I can't take this nominal succession, I will still be criticized by people all over the world. The old man has been scolded for his whole life, and it will still be the same after he dies. I will be scolded, but I have gone against it, so what if I do something more wrong?"]
[Emperor Xuande finally understood what kind of terrifying person the man standing in front of him was.]
[Such a person has no moral limits. He is not a gentleman. He is a villain who will do anything to achieve his goal. 】
[Emperor Xuande finally chose to surrender.]
[He knew that King Qi was really capable of such a wicked thing as preventing the late emperor from being buried. As he said, he had already suffered enough infamy, so why not add more. In order for his own father not to be under the influence of Jiuquan.
Unable to live in peace, Emperor Xuande decided to aggrieve himself.】
[In March of the first year of Xuande, the emperor had "peace talks" with Qi King Zhu Gaojie in the area north of the Yangtze River, and he readily agreed to remove Jian Yi. Yang Shiqi and other "treacherous officials" returned to Beijing safely under the protection of hundreds of thousands of Qi troops. After two
This is the end of the second Jingnan Campaign of the year.]
[Because Emperor Xuande was unwell, he ordered King Qi to supervise the country's administration. Not long after, Emperor Xuande invited King Qi to visit the lake. Suddenly, a strong wind blew up. Emperor Xuande accidentally fell into the water and almost drowned. Fortunately, King Qi rescued him.
Rescue Emperor Xuande from the water.]
[Although he saved his life, after this incident, Emperor Xuande's dragon body deteriorated and he was on the verge of death. Not long after, he was bedridden. The emperor felt that his time was short, and he was worried that after his death, the country would be unstable because he had no heirs, so he summoned him
When he came to King Qi, he said: "Fourth uncle, you can rule the world." King Qi declined, but Emperor Xuande had made up his mind, summoned all the ministers, ceded his throne to King Qi, and abdicated the throne as the Supreme Emperor.]
[After Zhu Zhanji became the Supreme Emperor, he still lived in Qianqing Palace. A few days later, he sighed to the eunuchs around him: "Zen is located after my fourth uncle. I am very relieved and my body feels a little better." The next day, Zhu Zhanji died.
Yu Qianqing Palace, the temple name is Xuanzong, he is only thirty years old.】
[After hearing the news of the death of the Supreme Emperor, you were extremely sad: "My eldest nephew, you died at a young age. How can I be worthy of my dead eldest brother? I failed to take good care of you!"]
[After wiping away the crocodile tears, you buried the Emperor calmly and visited the Crown Princess Sun, who was pregnant with Liujia. 】
[Sun is carrying Zhu Zhanji’s remaining dragon seed in her belly. You said happily: “Fortunately, the Supreme Emperor still has an heir alive. The Imperial Concubine must give birth to the Supreme Emperor’s heir safely and wait for the child to grow up in the future.
, I can safely hand over the throne to the Supreme Prince’s heir.”]
[The next day, the Crown Princess Sun died suddenly and was buried with Xuanzong in Jingling.]
【Simulation ends.】
Zhu Di pondered: "Is the fourth child too cruel? He even killed the unborn child... Wait a moment, the child in Sun's belly seems to be... Zhu Qizhen?"
"That's okay. Sun's sudden death has nothing to do with the fourth child."
…
In the back hall of Wenhua Hall, there were books as densely packed as the vast sea. The surface of the books was made of yellow paper. Zhu Gaojiu picked up a book and flipped through it. The household registration information was recorded in detail. The local government issued the household registration information to everyone.
Households must be filled out once a year, and the local government officials will verify the changes in their households, properties, properties, etc., and the changes will be accumulated year by year, and a large number of records will be created every ten years.
Yang Rong on the side looked a little depressed: "Your Highness, all the files in the Yellow Records Library in Houhu, Nanjing are here."
He almost collapsed from this imaginative task!
In just two months, Yang Rong moved millions of pornographic files from Nanjing to Beijing. Every step required careful planning, for fear of accidentally losing these booklets, which are more precious than gold.
.The most important thing is that he needs to race against time, but at the same time, he cannot damage the yellow book because of being too hasty.
In the past two months, Yang Rong was living like a year. He only slept for an hour and a half every day, and all the time he squeezed out was spent on transporting the yellow books, which really cost him his life.
Zhu Gaojie nodded slightly: "Okay, Mr. Yang Ge is really reliable in doing things. He went to the Ministry of Household Affairs to pay his salary."
Yang Rongru was struck by lightning: "Your Highness, Huang Ceku moved all the ministers here within the time specified by you. Why do I still have to collect my salary?"
Zhu Gaojiu said with a smile: "Mr. Yang Ge has misunderstood. I asked you to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to collect your salary. I am not asking you to resign and return to your hometown, but to collect your own incorruptible money. You have worked hard for Mr. Yang Ge during these days. As usual, this merit will be counted."
The money for raising integrity has to be settled at the end of the year, but you can also make a special decision occasionally and allocate funds from my East Palace, go to the household department, and give Mr. Yang Ge Xian 10,000 taels of money for raising money."
Yang Rong suddenly understood and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, this is just to raise honest money. I will be grateful if you can allow me to take a rest for two or three days and go back to have a good sleep."
"That's good. I happen to be planning to let Su Wu and Yu Qian work in the cabinet. You are allowed to take a rest for seven days. During these seven days, Su Wu and Yu Qian will take over the cabinet affairs first."
"With Su Wu's talent, it is no problem to join the cabinet, but..."
Yang Rong hesitated, "Is it appropriate to let Yu Qian join the cabinet?"
Since the Shangdonggong family became the dominant family in the court, Zhu Gaojie made a major change in the cabinet and kicked out all cabinet bachelors except Yang Rong for various reasons.
Now there is only Yang Rong left in the cabinet. If he takes a rest, the cabinet will stop working completely. Therefore, he has been reacting to the East Palace and suggested that two more talents be found to work in the cabinet.
The rank of the cabinet bachelor is not high, but the actual power is great, especially under the control of Zhu Gaojie. Although the cabinet has not yet become so powerful as the late Ming Dynasty, it has already faintly surpassed the six ministers.
At this time, when we want to stuff people into the cabinet, we can't be as casual as the first-generation cabinet team. New people of any level can be stuffed into it.
Naturally, Yang Rong had no objection to Su Wu joining the cabinet. They were all colleagues from Prince Qi's palace. Elder Yang Ge also recognized the young censor of Zuodu from the bottom of his heart.
But Yu Qian, a sixth-grade master of ceremonies, what kind of grade do you want to work with him in the cabinet?
Zhu Gaojie said calmly: "Yu Qian is my student."
Yang Rong was in awe: "Brother Yu is such a talented person, it is really more appropriate for him to serve as an errand in the cabinet. Your Highness is wise!"
Zhu Gaojie said playfully: "Yu Qian is only a teenager. You are almost old enough to be his father. You and he are brothers?"
Yang Rong waved his hand and said: "Scholars don't care about their age, they only care about their ability. If Yu Qian's scholarship can convince me, then what if I call him Mr. Yu Qian?"
"Then you scholars are really rough."
"What did your Highness say? Didn't you hear clearly just now?"
"It's okay. I praise you scholars for being so courageous."
The corner of Yang Rong's mouth twitched slightly. He seemed to have heard His Highness's voice full of contempt for scholars.
It's okay, he also looks down on scholars.
"It is said that a scholar holds a pen in his hand, and this pen is better than thousands of troops. But today, scholars read the books of Confucius, not the books of the Zhu family."
Zhu Gaojie suddenly asked wildly, "Tell me, what do you think if I form my own sect, independent of Confucianism?"
Yang Rong felt a little ridiculous: "Self-contained?"
"Yes, I plan to use Yu Qian as a driving force to establish a new school of thought."
Zhu Gaojie said seriously: "This new school is called...Xin Sect!"
