Ming Dynasty: Regrets about the Jingnan Rebellion? I changed it in a dream!

Chapter 123 In the Zhengtong year, Taizong, Renzong and Xuanzong were resurrected one after another!
On the way, Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Gaochi asked with some curiosity.

"What do you mean by the sword of the previous dynasty not killing officials of this dynasty?"

"Has the Ming Dynasty already perished?"

There are paved roads, bricks, and tall buildings all around.

The fast-moving cars on the road all demonstrate the prosperity of this era.

Zhuang Mu nodded: "In 1644, the peasant army led by Li Zicheng besieged Beijing. The troops in Beijing were unable to resist. On March of that year, Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, accompanied by the eunuch Wang Chengen, surrendered."

"At Shouhuang Pavilion on the top of Coal Hill, he hanged himself under a crooked tree, leaving a suicide note."

"The Ming Dynasty fell."

"In essence, the Ming Dynasty is the predecessor of the previous dynasty."

The three brothers were a little stunned when they heard this, but their emotions did not fluctuate too much.

Yao Guangxiao also seemed very indifferent.

The change of dynasties may be difficult to accept, but it is the law of all dynasties.

Something that no one can avoid.

I just don't know the reason. If I knew it in advance, could the Ming Dynasty's reign be extended?

"So, the drunkard who appeared in the tavern that day should be the Emperor Chongzhen."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaochi hurriedly asked.

"Chongzhen?"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded.

"A few days ago, there was a drunk man who kept saying that the Ming Dynasty would be overthrown in my hands."

"He was still wearing Ming Dynasty clothing, so we guessed at that time that he must be the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

"I wanted to ask him some questions, but my father avoided me and let him go."

If it were normal times, Zhu Di might not have escaped.

But now, the Hongsheng Emperor Zhu Biao and the Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang have appeared.

This made Zhu Di somewhat unable to accept the reality.

Simply put, it's all about face. If Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang knew about this, the throne of his lineage would be lost.

Although it has little to do with the Yongle Dynasty, Sun Guoye still took the blame.

Zhu Di used dreams to change Zhu Biao's past to make up for the Fengtian Jingnan incident.

How could Zhu Di make up for the fall of the Ming Dynasty?

On the way back, Zhu Gaochi was a little surprised to see people busy and happy everywhere.

"I wonder if this is the capital of our dynasty? I didn't see any beggars on the way there and back."

Hearing this, Zhuang Mu explained.

"In this era, although it is impossible for everyone to be rich and happy, at least no one dies of hunger and cold."

"In this era, most people can have enough food and clothing. I'm afraid that the enjoyment of ordinary people is better than that of you, the top people in the Ming Dynasty."

Live better than them?
"How can this be?"

This is certainly not Zhuang Mu bragging. In modern society, having enough food and clothing is the basic requirement.

Computer games, mobile phone videos, gourmet food, travel, etc. are not exclusive to the nobility.

"What's impossible about this? Your Highness, do you know how long it took our dynasty to achieve this?"

Yao Guangxiao, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui looked at each other.

Hunger and cold have always been the main solutions to people’s livelihood issues.

During all these years of governing the country, he has been working towards these goals.

Don’t even say that people all over the world will no longer suffer from hunger. Even in Yingtian Prefecture, people may die of hunger and cold.

The Hongwu dynasty ruled the country for thirty years, and the Yongle dynasty ruled the country for sixteen years, a total of more than forty years, but they were only able to prevent the people from starving to death.

But the problem of keeping warm in winter has never been solved.

Zhu Gaosui was the first to speak: "Three hundred years?"

Zhuang Mu shook his head.

"Two hundred years?" Zhu Gaoxu took over the conversation.

But Zhuang Mu still shook his head.

Yao Guangxiao also joined in the speculation at this time, and after thinking for a while he said, "Seventy years?"

Seventy years had passed, and he had lowered and lowered his expectations of himself.

But looking at Zhuang Mu's appearance, Zhu Gaochi said in disbelief: "Could it be fifty years?"

If it is fifty years, that would be too dreamy.

It is now the sixteenth year of the Yongle reign. Together with the thirty-one years of the Hongwu reign, the Ming Dynasty has been established for forty-seven years.

Not to mention ensuring that the people had enough to eat every day, there was also the money from the Northern Expedition, the money for building the canal, and the money for building Beijing.

You need to save, save and save again.

As an emperor, Zhu Di’s daily meals consisted of three dishes and one soup.

Zhuang Mu said slowly: "It took almost 30 years from the time when the people were facing starvation to the time when every family could eat meat every meal."

"These tall buildings, the cars on the road, etc., have all developed rapidly in the past 30 years."

Thirty years?!

Zhu Gaochi was slightly stunned, with a slight longing in his eyes.

Actually...it seems to be okay to be a commoner in this dynasty.

Because Zhu Gaochi was fat, Zhu Di basically restricted Zhu Gaochi from eating meat.

You can only eat two meals a day, you can't eat staple foods or meat, but you can drink soup.

Yao Guangxiao was also a little surprised that the development speed was so rapid in thirty years.

It really makes people curious.

Zhu Gaochi asked: "Excuse me, Manager Zhuang, can you tell us more about the development history of our dynasty?"

"If possible, I would like to borrow its useful parts to the Ming Dynasty."

His lifelong goal in governing the country was just one sentence.

Let the people have enough food to eat and enough clothes to wear.

That's it.

But throughout history, has anyone ever truly been able to eat meat for every meal and wear warm clothes without fear of the severe cold? Neither the Reign of Emperors Wen and Jing nor the Kaiyuan Prosperity met this standard.

There are no standards to refer to, so we can only grope our way forward on our own.

If we could learn from its policies, perhaps the Ming Dynasty could have achieved such success in 30 years.

At this time, Zhuang Mu stretched out his hand to stop a taxi.

He said, "If Your Highness wants to listen, I can explain it to you when I have time, or demonstrate it to you directly through dreams."

“But it’s too difficult to learn from it.”

“After all, it takes thirty years to grow crops, but it takes more than forty years to cultivate the soil.”

Zhu Gaoxu laughed at this time.

"It's difficult. What's the difficulty? Just copy it."

Anyway, when he was in the Imperial College, he needed to learn arithmetic and take exams, but sometimes he couldn't figure it out.

Directly copy from Zhu Gaochi or Zhu Gaosui.

Zhuang Mu smiled.

"The answer is correct, but the question is different, so it's still zero points."

"Without suitable soil, no matter how good the crops are, they will wither, right?"

As they chatted, Zhuang Mu brought Zhu Gaochi and others back to the tavern.

Coincidentally, Zhu Di was waiting in the tavern at that time.

When he saw Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi was a little confused.

"Dad? Why are you here? The court is..."

Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Gaochi, then turned to look at Zhuang Mu.

Inquiring: "How is the prince's health?"

Listening to Zhu Di's questions, Zhuang Mu directly gave part of his physical examination report to Zhu Di for review.

Of course, he definitely couldn't understand this.

Zhuang Mu explained, "There's nothing wrong with the prince's health."

"Three highs: high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high blood lipids."

"There are many minor problems, but as long as you pay attention to good eating habits and good living habits, there should be no problem living to your age."

"Of course, the most important thing is to control your eating habits and your lifestyle habits."

Zhu Di listened to this and sighed slightly.

"Can't it be completely cured?"

He knew very well that it would be strange for Zhu Gaochi to have such self-control considering that he had to eat two meals a day, could not eat meat, and had to deal with state affairs.

When I was alive, Zhu Gaochi was afraid of me and could still control himself, but now I am gone.

Zhu Gaochi would definitely ruin his health within a year just like Zhu Gaoxu did in his dream.

The harder the pressure, the stronger the rebound.

"It seems that I still have to consider changing the crown prince."

The atmosphere in the pub suddenly became a little lonely.

It seems that Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu are not in a good mood.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't know why, but when Zhu Gaochi was alive, he hoped that Zhu Gaochi would die. But when he knew the date of Zhu Gaochi's death, he no longer wanted Zhu Gaochi to die.

"There's no need to make the atmosphere so tense."

"Old man, aren't you just afraid that Zhu Qizhen will lose face?"

"Is it because Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji did not teach Zhu Qizhen well?"

Zhu Di nodded.

"Then is it possible to prevent Zhu Qizhen from being born?"

"Has the problem been solved soon?"

Suddenly, Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi and Yao Guangxiao fell silent.

This sounds a bit strange, but it seems to be okay.

Zhu Di put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I am really getting old and confused. Why didn't I think of this idea!"

"Second brother, do you know who Zhu Qizhen's mother is?"

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui looked at each other.

Then he said, "It seems to be my nephew's childhood sweetheart, Sun Ruowei."

Hearing this name, a cold light flashed in Zhu Di's eyes.

Perhaps Zhuang Mu’s suggestion was just to prevent Sun Ruowei and Zhu Zhanji from getting married.

But what Zhu Di was thinking in his heart was to kill Sun Ruowei directly to eliminate the trouble forever.

Perhaps Zhu Zhanji would hate his grandfather for this, but national stability comes first, and the death of a woman will not matter.

"Zhuang boy, I listen to you."

"When we get back, I will issue an edict to execute Sun Ruowei and put an end to the trouble forever."

Zhuang Mu was slightly stunned.

"Death sentence? Old man, that's not necessary."

"In fact, exile her or marry her to someone else, anything is fine, right?"

Zhu Di chuckled, patted Zhuang Mu on the shoulder and smiled.

"You're still too young."

"Zhanji will definitely become the emperor in the future. He and Miss Sun have a very good relationship."

"If I exile him, won't Zhanji summon him back?"

"If I marry her off, won't Zhanji snatch her back?"

"With the power of the emperor, it is very easy to do these things."

"Only by killing him can we completely prevent Zhu Qizhen from being born."

Only death can completely separate Zhu Zhanji and Sun Ruowei.

Zhuang Mu looked towards Zhu Gaochi.

What Zhuang Mu didn't expect was that Zhu Gaochi, who was always kind, said something rare.

"I agree with Dad on this matter."

"According to the second brother, Zhanji died young, and as the queen, she failed to teach the emperor well."

"He has committed a heinous crime and deserves death."

As a mother, it is your obligation to teach your son well.

As the queen, it is her duty to teach the crown prince well.

Why is his personality so similar to Zhu Biao?

Because Zhu Biao's personality and way of doing things were all taught by his grandmother, Empress Ma.

His personality and way of doing things were taught by his mother, Empress Xu.

Empress Xu stayed in the palace for a long time and was taught by Empress Ma. Naturally, her personality was very similar to that of Zhu Biao.

When the emperor has no time to educate his children, the queen's role is crucial.

Normally, a son's personality and behavior are very similar to his mother's.

Obviously, the target of Zhu Qizhen's reckless learning should be Sun Ruowei.

Yao Guangxiao at this time.

He persuaded: "Your Majesty, it would be better to do this."

"Let the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince enter the King of Han's dream and learn about the details of the Tumu Fortress Incident."

"It's not too late to make a decision."

Zhu Di nodded.

Because at that time I just entered Zhu Gaoxu's dream for fun.

I don't know much about the stories of Renzong and Xuanzong.

Who knows that it wasn't a dream made up by Zhuang Mu, it might be true.

So Zhu Di quickly summoned Zhu Zhanji.

Not long after.

Zhu Zhanji came to the tavern.

"Grandpa, are you looking for me?"

Because it was time for Zhuang Mu to go back upstairs to sleep.

In the tavern, there were only Zhu Di and his three brothers, plus Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Zhanji.

There were also six glasses of dream wine that had already been prepared on the table.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji in front of him and said, "Boy, don't you always want to know why I don't let you drink Zhuangmu wine?"

"Today, Grandpa will tell you the answer."

"Give."

Zhu Di picked up two of the six glasses of wine on the counter.

Pass it to Zhu Zhanji.

And then to the lounge chair.

There were only four lounge chairs in the pub and there were six of them.

Two of them definitely cannot have reclining chairs.

Zhu Di did not hesitate and directly asked Prince of Zhao Zhu Gaosui and the Crown Prince to sit on the ground.

The two youngest.

Zhu Zhanji is still a little confused.

Zhu Gaochi then hurriedly warned: "Zhanji, drink this glass of wine and hold my hand."

"clear?"

Although he didn't understand what was going on, Zhu Zhanji still trusted what Zhu Gaochi said.

Soon, Zhu Gaoxu took the lead in drinking, holding Zhu Di's left hand and Yao Guangxiao's right hand.

To the left of Zhu Di were Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji, and to the right of Yao Guangxiao was Zhu Gaosui.

soon.

The five people then entered into dreams one after another.

Zhu Zhanji looked at this scene, feeling confused, and drank the wine in the glass.

……

Dream, the fourteenth year of Zhengtong.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui woke up in the palace as usual.

The two looked at each other.

He stood up quickly.

"Third brother, the eldest brother and the nephew are both dead. Could it be that they also woke up in the grave?"

Normally, if they were in this world, they would already have their identities.

Then he will directly inherit his original identity and wake up.

Just like Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao, both Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao woke up in their graves.

Zhu Gaosui hesitated for a moment and responded, "That should be it."

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji were both buried in the imperial mausoleum.

And it is not far from Zhu Di’s imperial tomb.

The facts were just as Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui had expected.

Ming Xian Mausoleum, placed in two coffins in the main tomb chamber.

One of the coffins began to make noises.

"Dad?! Second brother! Third brother! Zhanji?! Where are you? Why is it so dark here?!"

"anyone there?!"

Because of Zhu Gaochi's physique, he was unable to exert any strength to break free from the coffin.

Gradually, Zhu Gaochi began to yell and scream because it was too dark and he was so scared.

at the same time.

Tomb of Emperor Xuanzong, Ming Jingling.

Zhu Zhanji felt the surrounding environment and frowned.

Where is this place?
He only felt that after drinking the wine given by his grandfather, he became extremely sleepy, and came here when he woke up.

It's pitch black and very narrow. Why does it feel like the shape of a coffin?
Zhu Zhanji thought for a moment, in order to verify his guess, whether he appeared in the coffin.

So he just pushed hard on the coffin lid above his head.

The enormous force directly lifted the coffin lid and he sat up vertically.

Look around at the surrounding environment.

Zhu Zhanji was silent...

It turned out that he was really in the coffin.

It’s strange, how did I end up in a coffin?

At this time, Zhu Zhanji found that his voice seemed a little old.

There were many burial objects around, including bronze mirrors. Zhu Zhanji quickly found a bronze mirror.

The figure that appeared in the bronze mirror shocked Zhu Zhanji.

"Is this... me?"

Zhu Zhanji could naturally see from the bronze mirror that although he looked a little old and decadent, it was indeed his own appearance.

Strange, where is this?

Grandpa, Dad, Uncle Two, Uncle Three, where is Mr. Yao?
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji jumped out of the coffin.

Looking around the surrounding environment, I feel that the scale of this tomb is that of the emperor.

Could it be... this is my own tomb?

After walking around, Zhu Zhanji quickly found the door to the tomb.

After coming back from the dead, it seems that my strength is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Even Xiang Yu might not have had such tremendous strength to open the stone door of the tomb with his bare hands.

Zhu Zhanji soon arrived outside the tomb.

What Zhu Zhanji didn't expect was that Zhu Di had already been waiting at the door of the tomb.

So he hurried to Zhu Di and asked, "Grandpa, what is going on?"

"Where is this place? And why did I wake up from the tomb?"

Zhu Di explained: "This is your second uncle's dream."

Dream? How could there be such a real dream?

“Very real, isn’t it.”

Zhu Zhanji nodded.

"Just be real. You can treat this world as a dream or as reality."

"Let's go find your father first."

"With your father's body, he probably can't crawl out of his grave."

Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji soon arrived at Zhu Gaochi's tomb.

The fact was just as he expected, Zhu Gaochi had not come out yet.

Zhu Di came to the tomb, pried open the stone door and walked into Zhu Gaochi's tomb.

Before reaching the main tomb chamber, I heard Zhu Gaochi's voice.

"I'm afraid of the dark! Is anyone there?!"

Zhu Zhanji hurriedly took two steps at a time and ran towards Zhu Gaochi's coffin.

Then he opened the coffin lid, and Zhu Gaochi looked at the faint light and Zhu Zhanji's face.

The frightened little heart finally calmed down.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi, who was frightened half to death, and sighed helplessly.

"This stupid boy."

I guess Yao Guangxiao has already gone to the palace.

He only needed to take Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji to the palace.

"Let's go."

Although Zhu Gaochi was still bloated, his limp seemed to have healed.

Able to walk normally without assistance.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji hurriedly followed Zhu Di.

He asked, "Dad, is this the second son's dream of becoming the emperor?"

Zhu Di nodded.

"Ah."

"Now the second and third sons have become emperors."

"All?"

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji were both a little confused.

Let’s not talk about becoming an emperor for now.

What does all mean?

"Well, the second brother led the third brother to follow the will of heaven and quell the crisis. When the country was in danger of extinction, he ascended the throne and became emperor."

"But he kept his word and allowed the third son to rule the country together, creating a dual-emperor system."

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji were both stunned.

Sure enough, Zhu Gaoxu was still so simple, the dual emperor system.

It is indeed a bit ridiculous.

Soon, Zhu Di prepared to go to Beijing with Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji.

However, at this time Zhu Di discovered that there were fires in the distance.

It seemed as if there was a war.

"Dad, what's going on over there?"

Zhu Di's face didn't look very good.

He said coldly: "It should be the Wala tribe that is harassing us."

"what?!"

Zhu Zhanji exclaimed.

"After the Battle of Tumu, the Ming Dynasty's control over the border was almost nonexistent."

"They naturally come here to plunder at will."

Fortunately, the city of Beijing is high, and it is unrealistic for Yesen of the Oirat tribe to completely capture the city of Beijing.

Therefore, we can only try to get as much benefit as possible.

Plundered various places along the Ming Dynasty's border.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui had ordered Yu Qian to fortify the city and clear the fields, and gather the surrounding people and food into Beijing.

Over time, these people will retreat.

Zhu Zhanji was somewhat incredulous.

Nearly no control?

What exactly happened in the Battle of Tumu?
"Grandpa, what exactly happened in the Tumubao Incident?"

Zhu Di held Zhu Gaochi with one hand and Zhu Zhanji with the other.

"Let's talk about it after we return to Beijing."

It's also time to give the officials in the court a little shock.

The return of Emperor Renzong and Emperor Xuanzong.

It is estimated that all the officials in the court and the country would be scared out of their wits.

After bringing Zhu Qizhen back, let Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Gaochi take action personally.

Kill this idiot.

Of course...there are some people who also need to be killed!

Before, because it was Zhu Gaoxu's dream to become emperor, Zhu Di didn't pay much attention to it.

It's just a dream, why bother so much.

But it’s different now. It’s still unclear whether this world is a dream or not.

In order to prevent this dream from becoming reality just like my own dream.

Then we must rectify it.

……

at the same time.

The main military camp of the Wala tribe.

Yesen raised his cup and gestured to Zhu Qizhen: "Cheers to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"

The other leaders raised their glasses and looked at Zhu Qizhen with great respect.

But Zhu Qizhen knew clearly that these people did not really respect him, but wanted to gain benefits from him.

That's how they respect themselves.

However, in order to survive, Zhu Qizhen naturally accepted their respect.

"Respectfully!"

After saying this, he drank the wine in the glass.

A hint of smile flashed in Yesen's eyes.

After Zhu Qizhen drank the wine, he suddenly felt hot all over, and then he suddenly realized.

Fell into a trap!
What Yesen didn't expect was that Zhu Qizhen simply bit his throat and vomited out all the wine he had just drunk.

As Yesen looked at this scene, the joy on his face suddenly disappeared.

With anger rising to his face, he came to Zhu Qizhen and said, "Boy, don't refuse my toast or drink the penalty wine!"

"You are now just a prisoner. If you want to survive, you must leave me a child."

Using marriage to control puppets is a method he often uses.

After all, he relied on this kind of marriage to annex the various tribes on the grassland and control the Mongolian Khan and his brother-in-law Toghto Bukha.

Zhu Qizhen said quickly: "Kill me? Then you will get nothing."

"If you keep me, you can at least get some ransom."

Yesen laughed loudly and said, "In exchange for ransom? The emperor of the Ming Dynasty has long been replaced. Do you think your uncle will use the ransom to exchange you?"

Uncle?

Looking at Zhu Qizhen's confused eyes, Yesen laughed even more wantonly.

"After you were captured, the Han King Zhu Gaoxu of Le'an raised an army to quell the rebellion."

"Your mother has been burned to death in the harem. You will never be able to go back in this life."

"In other words, either you obey me or I will respect you as the emperor!"

"Or, you will become a lost dog or a prisoner."

Zhu Qizhen's eyes suddenly dimmed.

How can this be? !
