If Empress Ma is still alive, Zhu Di will not dare to rebel even if she has a hundred guts, and Empress Ma is here, which is the Dinghai God Needle of the Ming Dynasty.
Empress Ma was Zhu Yuanzhang's wife, and in the twelfth year of Yuan Zhizheng (1352), under the auspices of Guo Zixing, she married Zhu Yuanzhang, who was then a general of the Red Turban Army, and the couple had a deep affection after marriage, and in the years when Zhu Yuanzhang calmed the world and created the imperial industry, both of them suffered together, and it can be that Empress Ma was Zhu Yuanzhang's xiannai assistant and his politically close assistant.
In the first year of Hongwu (1368), Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne as emperor at Yingtianfu, with the name of Daming, Jianyuan Hongwu, and Ma Shi was crowned empress. Empress Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang had the eldest son Zhu Biao the Prince of Yiwen, the second son Zhu Zhu the Prince of Qin, the third son Zhu Tang the Prince of Jin, the fourth son Zhu Di the Prince of Yan (doubtful), and the fifth son, Zhu Shu the Prince of Zhou. It can be seen that the relationship between Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma is very good, and the five concubines are enough to prove the feelings between the two.
Empress Ma was not only the empress dowager of the mother's world, but also the proud political assistant of Zhu Yuanzhang. In the face of Zhu Yuanzhang's slaughter of the meritorious generals, Empress Ma always gently advised. The crown prince's teacher, Song Lian, was convicted of a capital offense because Sun Shenshi was implicated, and Empress Ma bluntly interceded for Song Lian, and Zhu Yuanzhang finally pardoned Song Lian's capital crime and placed him in Maozhou. The five sons born to Empress Ma all respected her, and the fifth son, Zhu Xu, the King of Zhou, had a promiscuous personality, and when she grew up, she was sealed to Kaifeng, and Empress Ma was very uneasy about him, so she sent Jiang Guifei to supervise, took off the old clothes on her body and handed them to Jiang Guifei, and gave a wooden staff to tell Jiang Guifei: "King Zhou Ding is at fault, and he can wear a cane to blame." If you dare to disobey, report to the imperial court. "Loving Mother Yin Yin taught that the King of Zhou was in awe and did not dare to act recklessly.
Such a near-perfect Empress Daming died in the fifteenth year of Hongwu (1382), only 51 years old, Zhu Yuanzhang was devastated, gave the title of Empress Dowager Cixiao, and was buried in the Ming Tomb in the same year.
Empress Ma's eldest son Zhu Biao the Prince of Yiwen and his grandson Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunjiao were both weak and benevolent people, and after Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, he vigorously advocated cutting the domain to curb the growing uncle of the king of the domain, but he cut the clan and feared his hands and feet, first easy and then difficult, knocking on the mountain and shocking the tiger, which caused the Yan king Zhu Di to rise up and raise troops from Beiping, under the banner of "leaning on the side of the king", we assume that Empress Ma was still alive when Emperor Jianwen cut the domain, so did Zhu Di dare to rebel?
Empress Ma was born in 1332, so she was only 67 years old in the first year of Jianwen (1399), and Wu Zetian had not yet established the Great Zhou at this age. Therefore, the horse queen should have no problems in terms of energy. Since Zhu Yunjiao inherited the throne as the emperor's grandson, Empress Ma naturally had to be honored as the "empress dowager", and with her experience of running the harem for more than twenty years, and her experience in often interfering in politics during the Hongwu period, it should be said that her political influence was still very large, moreover, her mother was in the world, loved by the subjects of the world, it can be said that the people's hearts are toward Empress Ma, the so-called "get more help from the way, lose the way and help less", Zhu Di rebelled, "the name is not right", he knows the huge risks that exist in the middle.
As the mother of a country, Empress Ma was loved by the subjects of the world, and she and Taizu accompanied her for more than thirty years, with deep feelings, and were the most prestigious empress of the Ming Dynasty. If Empress Ma lived to the Jianwen period, with her prestige and ability, whether it was feasible to cut the domain and how to cut it would have an impact on the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunjiao, you know, in history, Zhu Di rebelled, precisely because Emperor Jianwen improperly cut the domain. Empress Ma had a certain amount of political experience, so she would certainly provide a reference for The Jianwen Emperor to cut the domain.
The existence of Empress Ma was itself the Dinghai God Needle of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Di wanted to rebel and give him a hundred guts.
