After Zhu Qizhen was released by Vala, would Zhu Qiyu abdicate and cede the throne to Zhu Qizhen? Could something like this happen?
History has already felt that it is basically impossible, just like a child who got a piece of sugar that he liked very much, and was licking and eating it with joy, and an adult next to him teased the child and said, Give me a taste, if the child gives the adult a taste, then he is not a child.
How can you take the initiative to let people do things that you like or things that you can't stop?
For example, a woman has a beloved dress that she wears on her body. It was a sibling next to her or someone else who asked her to take it off and let herself wear it for two days, and it was also impossible.
Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has been bloody, and such things have often happened between brothers and fathers and sons.
Everyone must remember the change of xuanwu gate, the axe candle shadow, and of course, they will not forget this change of seizing the door. So why couldn't Zhu Qiyu take the initiative to cede the throne to Zhu Qizhen?
First, Zhu Qiyu has the legitimacy of the throne, and Zhu Qiyu will not let it.
Zhu Qiyu inherited the throne of his brother Zhu Qizhen at a time of national peril, which was supported by the ministers and agreed by the empress dowager, and Zhu Qiyu had the legitimacy of the throne.
It's like if you buy an item and pay for it, and you bring it up to your home, then the thing is yours and no one can grab it.
Moreover, Zhu Qiyu was not bad when he was the emperor, and he appointed a virtuous person, actively resisted the enemy, and defeated his brother Zhu Qizhen's undefeated Vala first. Compared with the two, Zhu Qiyu was leveraged and did a good job.
Moreover, when the emperor is addictive, a hundred responses, the world is his own, almost everything is his own decision, sitting on it, that feeling is really good.
So can this person who feels very good, that is, the emperor, take the initiative to come down from above? No, it won't. Moreover, Zhu Qiyu was young and strong at that time, and there were still many negative reports that had not been completed.
Second, Zhu Qizhen's faults are too great to be worth letting go.
After a year of tribulation, Zhu Qizhen came back in ashes, not in the scenery.
Because Zhu Qizhen almost lost the Ming Dynasty, it was simply a re-edition of the Song Dynasty's Jing kang difficulty, Zhu Qizhen was comparable to the Song Huizong, Song Qinzong at that time, and Zhu Qiyu was equivalent to zhao zhao at that time.
Zhu Qizhen not only lost himself, but also destroyed the 500,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty's elite divisions and 60 or 70 civil and military officials. What a sin.
The difference is that Zhu Qizhen finally returned to the Ming Dynasty, and he was luckier than Song Huizong and Song Qinzong.
So in the face of the faulty, former monarch and now very good monarch, if you were to vote for one, would you choose the monarch who was once a bad monarch? Of course not. That is to say, Zhu Qizhen's fault was too great, and it was impossible to take the initiative to let him become emperor again.
Third, the ministers have a scale in their hearts, and they all support Zhu Qiyu for their own interests.
The ministers have a scale in their hearts, and it is clear who is right and who is wrong. Moreover, the ministers who had once fallen to Zhu Qizhen had all been lost by him, and now after several years of training, these ministers were basically inclined to Zhu Qiyu.
Even if Zhu Qiyu proposed to take the initiative to cede the throne to Zhu Qizhen, it is estimated that the ministers would not agree. The ministers not only cared about who would become the emperor, but also about who could run the position of emperor better. The ministers cared about who was more favorable to themselves as emperors, and in the absence of external worries, everyone wanted to live a quiet and stable life.
So why did Zhu QiZhen change after that?
First, Zhu Qiyu was seriously ill, and the crown prince he established died prematurely, and there was no successor to the emperor, which was a very big inducement.
Zhu Qiyu was seriously ill, and his son Zhu Jianji, the one he had once made crown prince, also died prematurely.
In the face of the leaderless future, everyone has no bottom in their hearts, each has its own algorithm, and each has its own small abacus.
On the one hand, although Zhu Qiyu was very good as emperor, he was about to reach the end, and on the other hand, Zhu Qizhen's father and son, Zhu Qizhen was imprisoned in the Nangong, and his son Zhu Jianshen grew up very well.
So after a hundred years of Zhu Qiyu, will Zhu Qizhen become the emperor again, or Will Zhu Jianshen become the emperor, or will he be the emperor? No one knows, and their hearts are like a small drum beating.
Second, Shi Heng and others must not be reused by Zhu Qiyu, which is also a reason.
On the night of the sixteenth day of the first month of the eighth year of Jingtai, because Emperor Jing was seriously ill and could not come to the court, Shi Heng, Cao Jixiang, Xu Youzhen and others led more than a thousand troops to infiltrate the Chang'an Gate and enter the palace from Donghua Gate. In the early morning of the seventeenth day, Xu Youzhen loudly announced the restoration of Emperor Yingzong.
So why did Shi Heng and others dare to take the lead in launching a change to seize the door? Don't they know that there are risks in doing so? And it's a lot of risk. Of course they know. However, they were not reused in the imperial court of Zhu Qiyu. Therefore, if they dare to give it a go and succeed in the change of seizing the door, then they will have the merit of supporting the establishment and will get glory and wealth.
Third, Yu Qian's acquiescence is an important factor.
After the change of Tumu Fort, Yu Qian vigorously defied public opinion and actively organized an offensive, and at the same time, zhu Qiyu was made emperor. After Zhu Qiyu became seriously ill, he was ready to write a letter with the ministers to restore Zhu Qizhen's son Zhu Jianshen as crown prince, but coincidentally the next day there was a change in the door.
So on that night, Shi Heng and others led 1,000 people to make such a big move, why didn't Yu Qian come forward to stop it?
Obviously, Yu Qian acquiesced, just like it was going to rain, and Zhu Qizhen's reset was a natural thing. The country cannot be without a monarch for a day, and instead of waiting until after Zhu Qiyu's death and the imperial court is in chaos, it is better to come to an early handover.
Yu Qian thought more about the stability of the world than who would become the emperor.
In summary, the wheel of history is rolling forward, and no one can stop it, and there is a reason for existence. History has no illusion, life cannot be repeated, no matter what, Zhu Qiyu will not take the initiative to give up the throne to Zhu Qizhen. Zhu Qizhen either grew old in the Nangong, or obtained the throne through the form of force, through the form of a change in the door with the help of others.
