preface
Jing's ascension to the throne was smooth, and the relocation of the capital was twisted and turned. The yellow dust of the northern desert of the five expeditions is fixed, and the blue waves of the Western Ocean are set off seven times. The Mohai Shu Lin Xiu Grand Ceremony, the Majestic Palace Wei Hall towered over youyan. The year is called Yongle Ann The World, who can the King of the Ten Thousand Worlds be? ---- "Seven Laws of Wing Ming Chengzu Zhu Di"
Zhu Di was the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty, a majestic monarch who did many good things for the benefit of the country and the people during his tenure. However, his throne was not inherited, he ascended to the throne after the Battle of Jingnan. When he invaded the city of Nanjing, he did not rush to the throne, but wanted to kill all the concubines of the harem, why was this?
History always carries some contingencies, just like the Battle of Jingnan, there are too many uncertainties in the early stages, and Zhu Di seized these opportunities with his excellent sense of smell, and Zhu Yunjiao was much worse, fainting, the good situation was corrupt, and finally lost everything.
In these accidents, in fact, there is also inevitability, Zhu Di's side is well-planned and precisely planned, while Zhu Yunjiao lacks experience and is full of loopholes. History has no if, and Zhu Di has the upper hand in this desperate fight.
Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was the emperor of the horse and fought for half his life
He laughed to the end in the contest with various demons and ghosts at the end of the Yuan, and his heart and strength were beyond doubt. But such an iron-blooded tough man also has tenderness, and this tenderness he gave to his wife Empress Ma and son Zhu Biao.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma met at the end of the year and walked through the hard years together, and they had deep feelings
。 Therefore, when their son was born, Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely happy and poured everything into this son. In order to cultivate Zhu Biao, he cheekily went to ask for help, invited the famous Confucian at that time to be a teacher, and set strict requirements on Zhu Biao, and let his son follow him to learn how to govern when he was a little older.
This painstaking effort was soon reaped, and Zhu Biao had already begun to take shape as an emperor under the teachings of Zhu Yuanzhang, and he could clearly see the shadow of Ming Jun. He was benevolent and kind to people, but he was impartial in handling political affairs, decisive in handling things, and very good, and the ministers of the DPRK and The Chinese ministers were very supportive of Zhu Biao and very satisfied with this heir.
However, the good times were always very short, Zhu Yuanzhang's beloved Empress Ma died, and a few years later, the crown prince Zhu Biao also died of illness, and Zhu Yuanzhang was greatly shocked and fainted for a long time.
Zhu Yuanzhang really couldn't bear such a big injury, and his dearest loved ones died one after another, which ordinary people couldn't stand. But Zhu Yuanzhang must cheer up, because he is not an individual who represents, behind him is the Ming Dynasty and hundreds of people.
Zhu Yuanzhang beat the spirit and began to deal with government affairs, while also searching for heirs
。 Because Zhu Yuanzhang was old, he needed a new helmsman to control Daming after a hundred years. However, the rest of the princes are not qualified enough, Zhu Di is a good choice, excellent ability, and courageous personality, but Zhu Di's identity is very important. Zhu Biao's son Zhu Yunjiao was still very young at the time, and Zhu Yuanzhang still made him an heir in order not to break the rules.
At the same time, at that time, the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty had not yet been completely eliminated, and Zhu Yuanzhang divided his sons and righteous sons to the frontier, hoping to guard the border with the strength of his son. This starting point is very good, but Zhu Yuanzhang is not a saint after all, he failed to think it through, ignoring the hidden danger that the power of the border prince is too strong, which may lead to civil strife in the country, and such negligence laid the groundwork for the subsequent Battle of Jing.
In 1398, Zhu Yuanzhang died, and Zhu Yunjiao officially succeeded to the throne
。 Zhu Yunjiao performed very well during the time of the Emperor's grandson, familiar with Confucian classics, gentle and humble, and made people feel like a spring breeze. But after he ascended the throne, these qualities could not support him to control the entire country. He has Zhu Biao's benevolence, kindness and kindness to people, but his ability is not enough, he lacks courage when handling things, and he is partial to Confucianism and does not know people, which caused the tragedy that followed.
Zhu Yunjiao listened to Confucian rumors and could not wait to cut down his domain as soon as he came to power to consolidate his rule
。 However, Zhu Yunjiao was too anxious, and as soon as he came up, he used fierce fire to stimulate these princes to the fire, and some of the princes with violent personalities even forced them to die and killed people. At this time, you should restrain a little and stop doing things in the right way.
But he did not, but intensified, using various methods to deprive and squeeze his uncles, even when Zhu Di pretended to be crazy. In this case, Zhu Ditu died of fox sorrow, the surrounding oppression was heavier, Hengzhu had the idea of rebellion, and with Yao Guangxiao on the side, Zhu Di made up his mind and began the Battle of Jingnan.
The Battle of Jing
After Zhu Di made up his mind, he began his own action, first killing the officials who were monitoring him, and then quickly sweeping through the entire Yanjing City, making a sound to the people of the world. Zhu Yunjiao dispatched his troops and surrounded Zhu Di on all sides, and Zhu Di was facing a desperate situation. However, under such circumstances, Zhu Yunzhi made another mistake and asked the front-line generals not to kill Zhu Di.
Zhu Di was desperate, relying on the luck of the heavens and excellent insight, he killed a bloody road
。 After that, he used his strengths and created a lot of momentum. At this time, the strategic situation had changed, Zhu Di occupied the initiative, Zhu Yunjiao was powerless, lost a large amount of territory in the north, and many generals also joined Zhu Di's team, and Zhu Yunjiao was trapped in Nanjing, waiting for death.
Traitors in The city of Nanjing opened the gates, Zhu Di's army drove straight in, and Zhu Yunjiao's palace was reduced to rubble in the fire
。 Zhu Di organized people to extinguish the flames, but the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen were not found, several charred bones could not prove Zhu Yunjiao's identity, and the entire city of Nanjing did not find his traces, Zhu Di was greatly ignited, and sent his men to search for Zhu Yunjiao's whereabouts.
At the same time, he also gathered Zhu Yunjiao's palace daughters and concubines together and asked his henchmen to execute them. The reason why Zhu Di was so cruel is also very speculative, that is, he hopes to cut the grass and remove the roots, because his throne has never been the orthodoxy inherited, and now that Zhu Yunjiao is missing, these concubines are a time bomb, so Zhu Di will cut them off.
Another reason is that if anyone in this group is pregnant with Zhu Yunjiao's flesh and bones, then things will become complicated and there may be waves at that time, so Zhu Di killed these concubines fiercely and imprisoned and killed Zhu Yunjiao's son. Although Zhu Di was cruel in his means, he was a good emperor and more suitable for the profession of emperor.
