This kind of major national affair is a long story, first of all, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chang Yuchun.
Chang Yuchun died young, and the history books say that he lived forty years, but in fact, this is the Chinese algorithm of "imaginary one year".
Inaccurate!
Often meet spring film and television stills
Chang Yuchun actually lived only 39 years, and then suddenly died of a violent illness, on the seventh day of July (lunar calendar) of the second year of Hongwu, which was the legendary ghost of hell during the ghost month.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very sad, really sad.
Chinese-style sadness, close friends and spirits can not avoid complaining.
According to common sense, referring to Zhu Yuanzhang's later actions, we guess that Zhu Yuanzhang probably complained:
Often you came to my old Zhu at the age of 25, and followed me to fight for ten years and four years, and it was not easy for us to come to the Blood Sea Corpse Mountain. I became the emperor, you became the "Wu Zai Xiang" Zhongshu Pingzhang military and state important thing, and you were also knighted as the Duke of Eguo, and our monarchs and subjects saw that this was going to enjoy prosperity and prosperity! Often you leave Old Zhu and I say go.
Often you don't pay attention to it!
But my old Zhu is a person who pays attention to people, and people in the world look at it! Old Zhu, I must not forget your usual merits, I must treat you well in your family and your children well, in order not to live up to your and my courtesan's feelings.
Because chang Yuchun's last city was Kaiping City, the capital of Yuanshang, Zhu Yuanzhang posthumously awarded Chang Yuchun the title of "King of Kaiping", gave him the title of "Yiyun Tuicheng Xuande Jingyuan Meritorious Servant", and promoted Chang Yuchun to the position of "Kaifu Yi Tongsan Division, Shangzhu Guo, Taibao, and Zhongshu Right Minister".
This grace can be given! Can't add any more, can't add up. In Zhu Yuanzhang's time, there were only six kings with different surnames, and Chang Yuchun was the first.
To express great sorrow and grace.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang took his wife Ma Dazu to invite Chang Yuchun's wife Lan Shi and Chang Yuchun's children to hold a private family gathering.
Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife and Lan Shi are old acquaintances.
Fourteen years ago, in April, the crowd at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was in full swing. Zhu Yuanzhang led a group of Zihuaixi disciples to break away from the county seat of Hexian County, which Guo Zixing had just laid, and Guo Zixing gave him an official position of "Hezhou Commander-in-Chief" before he could be regarded as having a foothold.
Chang Yu Chun brought more than ten people to vote, please be a pioneer.
"Old Zhu, I often encounter spring and are good at fighting hard battles, you use me to fight forwards, you can't eat losses!"
Zhu Yuanzhang often met Chun and the two sat down to chat, and suddenly found that the two had three things in common. That is, both of them were born poor and married late, Zhu Yuanzhang was 27 years old, chang Yuchun was 25 years old, and they had no heirs. But god pity, fortunately, the world is in chaos, the two of them are really no owner because they have nothing, but they can play to the fullest, and if they don't die, they will do it! Nowadays, both of them are still small achievements, and they have also married their wives, coincidentally, and their wives are also pregnant, both are the first child.
Oh! In fact, there are four things in common.
In such a situation, it is impossible for the two to not be close.
There is a legend that in this year, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chang Yuchun set up a doll kiss, and agreed that if the two wives gave birth to a man and a woman, Zhu Chang and the two families would marry as children and daughters.
Shi Wuxian said that this one thing could not be done accurately.
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang certainly did not have a deep mansion compound to live in. Although Chang Yuchun was a vanguard officer, at this time Zhu Yuanzhang only had a few thousand troops, and Chang Yuchun's men were at best a few hundred soldiers, so Chang Yuchun certainly did not have a residence in the Great General's Mansion. The two great heroes went out in all directions, the days were dangerous, of course, there were no old people around to help take care of pregnant women.
So The two pregnant women, Bigfoot and Lan, must take care of each other.
Ma Dazu and Lan Clan chatted deeply again, and found that they were still Dingyuan fellows, not outsiders, and they formed a sisterhood.
You know, Bigfoot has no close relatives. Zhu Yuanzhang also has a second brother-in-law and a nephew, Lan Shi has a younger brother Lan Yu, and Ma Dazu has nothing.
This girlfriend sisterhood is not simple, as close as a sister.
Film and television photos
As for ma Dazu later, he gave birth to a boy Zhu Biao, Lan Gave birth to a girl, and the two children of course played together every day. Two children should be regarded as two small no guesses, green plum bamboo horses.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang's career became bigger and bigger, and the two families built large mansions to live in, and the two children also had servants to use, so they rarely met.
As for Zhu Yuanzhang, there is no interest or time to pay attention to the growth of a little girl.
Now Lan And her children were in front of Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the eldest daughter of the Chang family, she had grown into a big girl, with a degree of progress and retreat, a situation left and right, a decent speech, a generous move, and no matter how she looked at it, she was a good girl who knew how to read and reason, and her future was unlimited, and she couldn't help but rejoice. Looking at his eldest son Zhu Biao, he was even more happy, the little guy was a bunch of teenagers and old, and the temperament of the pony of the Ang Ang Thousand Mile Colt always lingered on him, and at first glance, he looked like a holy lord and a ming jun. Last year, he had been made crown prince and designated him as crown prince.
The "Ming" of Daming, a day and a month, a yang and a yin merge into two "Ming". These two excellent children, a man and a woman, are one, King's Landing Daming, Daming is not the sun and the moon!
Zhu Yuanzhang had the intention of merging the two families into one, which was also a big gift to the old people under the Nine Springs! "You can rest assured, your child is my child, my old Zhu can't be as rich as you, I can make the Zhu family and the Chang family rich and noble."
However, in the face of new funerals in the spring, it was not good to immediately mention the matter of letting the Chang family add officials into the marriage of men and women, so they put up with it.
The next year, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the time had come, and then he sealed the positions of the second child of the Chang family, the eldest son of the Chang family, Chang Mao Zheng Guo, Right Pillar Guo, and Tejin Guanglu Doctor. This year, Chang Mao was only 14 years old, and he had not even been on the battlefield, and he had not made any achievements.
Another year, the fourth year of Hongwu, also in April, Zhu Yuanzhang issued a holy decree to crown the daughter of the Chang family as "Crown Princess".
This is equivalent to designating Chang Yuchun's eldest daughter as the second mother of the Zhu Family Dynasty!
Old Zhu is really good to meet spring! Be a good big brother and worthy of the dead.
Zhu Yuanzhang
All right! Let's take a look at Zhu Biao's foreign relatives.
Zhu Biao did not have an uncle, nor did he have an aunt. His nearest, capable relative had to find it from his wife.
The first is that Zhu Biao's father-in-law often meets Chun, although the others are gone. However, he was brave in his life, leading his army to capture the fortified city of Quzhou, occupying jiuhua mountain and looking north at the Yangtze River, commanding the city of Jiqing, and then crossing the river to lead the vanguard army to lay the base for Zhu Yuanzhang to lay the base of Jiqingcheng, and then ambushing at Liuquankou to give Chen Youyu a fatal blow, so that Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Chen Youyu and dominated the Yangtze River. Later, he attacked Shaanxi and Gansu in the west, and the Northern Expedition to capture Yuan Dadu and Yuan Shangdu.
In these battles, Chang Yuchun was promoted step by step, promoted to knighthood, by the vanguard, and the general, and the marshal, and the duke of Guo, and the king of Kaiping. However, the big and small generals who followed him to charge the battle were also added to the ranks together! At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, many guys who were knighted for their military achievements were once Chang Yuchun's subordinates!
China is a society of human feelings, Zhu Yuanzhang is gone, if Chang Yuchun's son-in-law and grandson become emperors, who among these people is good not to give face!
Then there is the early Ming Dynasty rising star who attacked the invincible great general Blue Jade.
Lan Yu is Chang Yuchun's brother-in-law and Zhu Biao's wife and uncle.
There is also a Dingyuan man Feng Sheng, who fought in the Southern Expedition and the Northern War, Shanxi was fought by him, Liaodong was pacified by him, and he was also a big man in the DPRK, who had face and a foundation, or a Huaixi person. His daughter is Chang Mao's wife, Chang Yuchun's daughter-in-law.
That is to say, Feng Sheng and Chang Yuchun are also the sons and daughters of the family, and they are in-laws who are both prosperous and lost.
The Chang family is really not small.
Sapphire stills
Parents love their children, and they have far-reaching plans for them.
Zhu Yuanzhang was a very qualified father.
Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang's plan was very good, in order to get Emperor Zhu Biao's seat in prison, he used his power and viciousness to clean up his old men, those Huaixi compatriots Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong, as well as Xu Da, Tang He and other so-called twenty-four generals of Huaixi, banished, marginalized, and killed.
In Hu Weiyong's case alone, Zhu Yuanzhang killed Lu Zhongheng, Tang Shengzong, Fei Ju, Zheng Yuchun, Chen De, Gu Shi (who killed his son after illness), Wu Frame (who settled accounts and destroyed his family titles after his death), and Chen De (who met Wu Frame) of the twenty-four people he had taken out from his hometown.
Note that the rest are not unslain. Instead, some of them had died in battle long ago, and some of them were people who had often met spring, and they were left behind and used by sapphire. For example, Chen Heng, such as Xie Cheng, these two people later died in the Blue Jade case.
As for the magical figure Liu Ji Liu Bowen, he was marginalized as early as the third year of Hongwu, and he was sealed as a "sincere uncle", and even a Marquis was driven back to his hometown to honestly do yugong.
Every fierce person was sent away by Zhu Yuanzhang, which also showed the might of the Chang family's blue jade.
The history books clearly record that Lan Yu initially fought around under Chang Yuchun, Fu Youde, Xu Da, Mu Ying and others, although he had repeatedly made military merits, in fact, he was not too good. After all, there were too many fierce people in the early Ming Dynasty, his qualifications were too shallow, and he had always been like that, mixed up here, mixed up there, and never led the army to fight alone.
It was not until the eleventh year of Hongwu, in 1378 AD, that he followed Mu Ying to conquest Xifan. The next year, after a victorious battle, Mu Ying went to Yunnan, and Lan Yu returned to the capital Yingtian. It was the twelfth year of Hongwu, 1379 AD.
Note that this year is the year of Hu Weiyong's case.
In this year, Blue Jade was given the title of "Yongchang Hou" and has since entered the array of senior military generals. At the same time, Feng Sheng has always been reused and has never been unlucky.
The rest are out of luck.
What an "empty printing case"! What a "Hu WeiYong case"! What "Guo Heng case"! As well as the strange "Hu Mei case", Hu Mei, one of Zhu Yuanzhang's fathers-in-law, only visited his daughter once in the palace, and the son and son-in-law of the Hu family accompanied Hu Mei to the underworld together. Of course, there are bureaucratic corruption and laziness and disrespect. But if there is something to say, why kill the ring? How about killing tens of thousands of people as soon as you kill them, and killing entire families when you kill them?
Every gua man raid, every massacre, in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang is clearing the obstacles to Zhu Biao's governance.
Zhu Yuanzhang, can be described as the first in the world to be fierce and poisonous.
Zhu Yuanzhang's plot can be described as exhaustive. All are in his bowl, if you want to live, you will live; If you want to die, you will die, and the last one left will be used by me.
Zhu Yuanzhang chose to let the people belonging to the chang yuchun family's forces live, not for anything else, but only because they would naturally support the chang family's son-in-law Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang managed the heavens and the earth, and managed people to fart.
This is not a joke.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who is playing idle and chatting with friends at home, also has to be managed, because there are Jinyi guards to help him spy on him, and whoever dares to let go of idle farts will be killed without forgiveness.
However, there is one thing that Zhu Yuanzhang can't manage, and it belongs to God, that is, everyone's life span.
The Changyuchun family lacks longevity genes, and each one of them does not live long.
Chang Yu Chun died at the age of 39.
His eldest daughter, Zhu Biao's wife, is only 24 years old.
Chang Mao, the eldest son of the Chang family, died prematurely at the age of 35.
The second son of the Chang family, Chang Sheng, lived for how many years he lived, although there is a lack of clear historical data, but one said that he lived to the early years of Yongle, and the other said that he disappeared during the Hongwu years, and it is estimated that at most he will be forty years old. He's still an incompetent cargo.
The most unfortunate thing is that Zhu Xiongying, the eldest nephew of the Chang family, the eldest son of Zhu Biao's concubine and the legitimate third generation successor of the Zhu family dynasty, only lived for 8 years and died early.
It was in 1382.
What a shame.
What a shame!
And then, ten years later.
In ten years, a lot can happen.
In 1392, the sunny day thunderbolt, for Zhu Yuanzhang, was really a sunny thunderbolt, and Zhu Biao also died.
Of all the things in the world, Zhu Yuanzhang had the ability to take it and give it to Zhu Biao, but he didn't have the ability to let Zhu Biao live for even a year.
All calculations have failed! The old family is not blessed.
What to do?
How fierce is Zhu Yuanzhang!
Then "borrow another five hundred years from the sky", and then create a second Zhu Biao, for zhu Yunjiao, who looks very much like a blessed grandson, will once again "calculate the exhaustive strategy".
Originally, Zhu Biao and the eldest daughter of the Chang family also gave birth to a son, named Zhu Yunxi, who was only one year younger than Zhu Yunxi. The year Zhu Biao died, one of them was 15 years old and one was 14 years old. One is the eldest grandson and the other is the second grandson.
The eldest grandson is gone, and from the perspective of feudal etiquette, it should also be a good thing for the second grandson Zhu Yunxi.
But what about feudal etiquette? Daming was all decided by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang's old man was not easy, the palms of his hands and the backs of his hands were all meat, thinking about the short-lived fate of the Chang family, Zhu Yuanzhang gave good things to the eldest son, Zhu Yunjiao.
Zhu Yunjiao's parent genes are exceptionally good.
Zhu Yunjiao's paternal line Zhu Biao did not say, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally believed that the Zhu family was all destined generations, and the untimely death of his beloved son Zhu Biao was purely by the old Chang family.
Zhu Yunjiao's maternal family was the Lü clan of the Yuan and Song dynasties. Leaving aside their background, at least from the perspective of life expectancy, they are not short-lived and blessed people. Zhu Yunjiao's maternal grandfather Lü Ben died a normal death in a prominent position as the secretary of the Taichang Temple, and further up.
This is important.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's talented and strategic guy has a far-reaching strategy, of course, he will not choose Zhu Yunjiao just for this one reason.
Zhu Yunjiao's birth mother, Lü Shi, was not simple.
The potential of Zhu Yunjiao's foreign relatives.
1 Lü Ben has no children, only One daughter of Zhu Yunjiao's mother. This Zhu Yuanzhang likes more. The world is exactly like this, sadness and joy are not the same, people do not have sons are more sad, but some people are at ease because of this.
2 Lü Ben died exactly one year before Zhu Xiongying. Lü Ben died at the right time, and Zhu Yuanzhang was very relieved.
The above two points naturally determine that in the future, there will be no chaotic politics of foreign relatives in the era belonging to Zhu Yunjiao.
This can also be regarded as Zhu Yuanzhang's "conspiracy to go with the flow of heaven"!
However, there is still no way, Zhu Yuanzhang's thinking is unfathomable, we have to peel it off layer by layer.
The Lü family is incredible, and in the late Song and early Yuan dynasties, the Lü family once produced a big figure, Lü Wenhuan.
Lü Wenhuan was the fierce man who had blocked the Mengyuan file in Xiangyang for six years (there was an intersection with Guo Jing in Jin Yong's novel), and at that time, the Song family also had Lü Wende, Lü Wenfu, and Lü Wenxin, and the three brothers were all important ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Lü Wende was still a prince-level figure.
Obviously, the Lu family ancestors are very broad, not from a cat and a dog, and can afford to be rich and wealthy.
The Lu family is still very sleek, not a dead brain, and knows how to choose with the trend.
After the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Lü Wenhuan converted the court to Shun Dayuan and became a prominent figure of the Yuan Dynasty, and the inheritance was endless, passed to Lü Ben.
In the middle of this, the Lü family has had capable people from generation to generation, talents from generation to generation, a good family style, a good education, and is the kind of cultivating and reading family that has been passed down from generation to generation with excellent family learning, and it is not a family that is rich and noble because of the bravery and barbarians who dare to take their lives and get lucky.
This gene, it's really good.
By the time Lü Ben, Empress Lü's father, was in charge of the Lü family, Zhu Yuanzhang had become a climate in Jiangnan.
In the first year of Zhu Yuanzhang's reign, Lü Ben led his family to submit to Zhu Yuanzhang.
How sober!
Lü Ben also did a good job and was very popular with Zhu Yuanzhang.
In just seven years, Lü Ben began as a small clerk in Zhongshu Province, and was sent to Hubei Province to sit in the position of "Zhaomo" in charge of the file and Qiangu, and then returned to Zhongshu Province as Langzhong, and then Hongwu was promoted to the rank of Waiter of the Punishment Department for five years. In the same year, he was promoted to the rank of Shangshu.
This is a very high-ranking cadre, a large cadre who is in charge of the appointment and dismissal of bureaucrats in the world, commonly known as "heavenly officials".
Another year, Sheng Taichang Temple Qing. This official was also remarkable, but he was the supreme ruler in charge of the ritual sacrifices.
"The great affairs of the country are only the ones who are worshipped and honored." Zhu Yuanzhang himself firmly grasped the "Rong" and handed over the "Qi" to Lü Ben.
It can be seen that the two monarchs are close. Otherwise, it wouldn't have become a child's family!
With the harshness of Zhu Yuanzhang's use of people, Lü Ben could not climb up without two brushes.
This ability is really strong. The genes for doing big things are good.
Zhu Yunjiao is Lü Ben's only grandson.
Bloodline circulation, Zhu Yunjiao can't be wrong!
Zhu Yuanzhang then spread the world widely and gave the position of crown prince to Zhu Yunjiao, known as the "Emperor's Grandson". After me, Zhu Yunjiao.
Zhu Yuanzhang's heart is really deep enough!
The mind goes on...
The Changjia forces could not stay.
Zhu Yuanzhang understood that the matter of the throne could not be gentle and elegant, but could only be bloody and drifting pestle.
So the "Blue Jade Case" started.
The tragic and senseless massacre of the Blue Jade case will not be described in detail here, it is nothing more than a copy of the "Hu Weiyong case", what crime is not important, what is important is that those who have something to do with the Chang Yuchun family must die, and they can always find the crime.
Zhu Yuanzhang was really fierce.
But, still, but.
Being an emperor also needs helpers, there are too many things in the world, it is impossible for a person to be busy, not to mention staying mysterious in the deep palace! Must be commanded remotely.
Zhu Yuanzhang must again gather some loyal and naturally equal interests for his dear eldest grandson to help Zhu Yunjiao govern the world.
Of course, you have to go to find it from Lü Ben.
Lü Ben has many students, he is also the chief examiner of the first scientific examination opened by Zhu Yuanzhang, and there are several protégés, all of whom are full of economy and five cars. Among them, there are four most eye-catching, namely: Tie Xuan, Qi Tai, Lian Zining, and Huang Zicheng.
Zhu Yuanzhang is really a qualified good grandfather, looking at his arrangement, the military generals who protect Zhu Yunjiao outside are all Zhu Yunjiao's uncles, and they are connected by blood, everyone is so close, what can be the problem? Zhu Yunjiao's courtiers were all students of his maternal grandfather's family, and their interests were the same, let alone a problem.
Borrow another five hundred years from heaven! Zhu Yuanzhang almost succeeded!
When I die, everything is business as usual, my will extends for another five hundred years, and I die as if I were born.
It must also be said however.
However, God also arranged a Zhu Di.
Zhu Di this guy, his viciousness and scheming do not lose his father Zhu Yuanzhang.
The next "difficult thing" is not described in detail here, a simple explanation:
Tie Xuan, Qi Tai, Lian Zining, and Huang Zicheng all shed the last drop of blood for Zhu Yunjiao, and scolded Zhu Di for being tortured to death, but he fell into a good reputation as a "loyal and righteous soldier".
Actually! All four of these people and their families must die.
Zhu Di could accept Li Jinglong's surrender, he could accept the surrender of the great celebrity Xie Jin, he could accept the surrender of anyone, and he could even accept Zhu Yunxiong's surrender and let him die of illness!
It didn't matter if he accepted Fang Xiaoru's surrender, Zhu Di was happy to see him surrender.
The last one but.
However, in any case, Zhu Di could not accept the surrender of Tie Xuan, Qi Tai, Lian Zining, and Huang Zicheng, because Zhu Di was deeply taught by Zhu Yuanzhang: Wings cannot be left, and the king who destroys the country must first remove his wings, turn his foundation deeply, beat him to pieces, and then sweep them clean.
There's one more after all.
After all, Tie Xuan, Qi Tai, Lian Zining, and Huang Zicheng are also reading seeds! The world is well-known, and Daoyan and shang Yao Guangxiao did not ask for the lives of four people.
Zhu Yuanzhang still hadn't calculated the heavens.
Because God let him give birth to a son Zhu Di.
