The emperors of the Ming Dynasty are more and more strange than one, and each emperor's personality is very strong, but the Ming Dynasty is also the most admirable dynasty, there is no land, there is no peace, the son of heaven guards the door of the country, and the king dies. In the 276 years of the Ming Dynasty, there were 16 emperors, and the most bizarre of these emperors was Emperor Mingxi Zhu You.
Ming Xi Zong Zhu by school
Zhu Youxiao is the eldest son of Emperor Mingguangzong Zhu Changluo, his grandfather is Ming Shenzong Wanli, Wanli Emperor reigned for 48 years, is the longest reigning emperor of the Ming Dynasty, his father is the emperor, as the crown prince Zhu Changluo can only wait, this wait is 20 years, Zhu Changluo was the crown prince for a full 20 years, and finally in 1620, the Wanli Emperor died, Zhu Changluo really became the emperor, but Zhu Changluo was really indisputable, waited for 20 years, but became the emperor for a month and died, known as the "Son of Heaven in January".
After Zhu Changluo's death, the illiterate Zhu Youxiao was hastily pushed to the throne by the Donglin Party, Zhu Youxiao was really illiterate, his father Zhu Changluo was not welcomed by his grandfather the Wanli Emperor, Zhu Changluo himself was trembling every day, there was no time to supervise his son to study, plus Zhu Changluo may feel that literacy and hyphenation may be a disaster for his children, so he did not care much about him, but Zhu Youxiao is also the son of the prince, and he cannot go out to play around like ordinary children in other families. But in his father's prince's mansion, he was idle and bored every day, so poor Zhu Youxiao could only find things to play with himself, and the woodworking artworks that were used as decorations became his first toys, and it was precisely because of this that Zhu You's strong interest in carpentry was cultivated.
Ming Guangzong Zhu Changluo
After Zhu Changluo's violent collapse, only 16-year-old Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne as emperor, Zhu Youxiao did not know how to be emperor, no one taught him, his father Zhu Changluo did not care about him at all, his mother died very early, the person closest to him was his grandmother Keshi, Zhu Youxiao took the throne at the beginning of the reign, he named the nursing mother Keshi as Lady Fengsheng, quite graceful, the ruling Donglin party people were worried about Keshi's interference in politics, so they suggested driving Keshi out of the palace according to the custom, Keshi was a woman with a heart, she knew that as long as she firmly grasped the emperor, Then no one else could help her. Keshi also joined forces with his rival Wei Zhongxian to form a castration party to confront the Donglin party.
Although Colonel Zhu You did carpentry work every day and did not care about political affairs, he was not stupid, the eunuch party and the Donglin party were the most favorable to himself, if the internal and external dynasties were all united, then his emperor would not be able to do well, although he single-handedly supported the eunuch party and used the eunuch party to fight against the Donglin party, but he was never ambiguous in state affairs, he appointed Yuan Chonghuan to resist the Houjin troops, and used Xiong Tingbi to serve as the shangshu of the military department and the right deputy capital, Yushi, and slightly Liaodong.
He promoted the general Mao Wenlong to deputy commander-in-chief and sent him to guard Zhenjiang. At the same time, Zhu Youxiao also issued an edict to rehabilitate Zhang Juzheng, record fang xiaoru's widow, give him a good pension, and give him a funeral and a posthumous title. This series of measures at least shows that Zhu Youxiao still has something to do, Wei Zhongxian is just a pawn of his, if there is no support for him, Wei Zhongxian is no matter how cunning is a eunuch, at that time the Donglin Party was too powerful, so it was necessary to suppress and suppress them, but the ministers of the DPRK were basically henchmen of the Donglin Party, so he had to cultivate his own forces, at this time, just Wei Zhongxian came out, plus Wei Zhongxian was an eunuch, and he was essentially not a threat to the imperial power. In all the dynasties and dynasties, only ministers sought power and usurped the throne as emperors, and they had never heard of eunuchs as emperors, so for Wei Zhongxian, Zhu Youxiao was a hundred hearts.
But Wei Zhongxian is also a human, there is also a desire for power, especially through the power to alleviate the pain of physical inadequacy, at first Wei Zhongxian is a dog, but after a long time, the dog has become a wolf, and is a vicious wolf that eats people, Zhu Youxiao likes to do handicrafts, tireless all year round, Wei Zhongxian is also very good at things, every time he plays things, he always picks zhu Youxiao's carpentry is nervous, Zhu Youxiao has no patience to listen, only to say that this matter is already clear to you, as for how to do it yourself, you can see it yourself. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian used the name of Zhu Youxiao to correct the abuse of power, and there was no evil in corrupting the law, and even later people called Wei Zhongxian nine thousand years old, just one step away from long live.

Wei Zhongxian and Keshi were in cahoots, one in the outer court and the other in the inner court, completely controlling the government, keshi raised a lot of beautiful women in the harem, and dedicated them to Zhu Youxiao for fun, and what was even more terrifying was that once she found out which concubine or palace girl was pregnant, she immediately killed them and had an abortion, even the empress did not escape her clutches, which is why Zhu Youxiao did not have a child until her death.
Zhu Youxiao loves to be a carpenter to a realm, he is skillful, has a strong interest in making wood, and all carpenter work such as knives, saws, axes, and lacquer, he must personally operate and enjoy it, and even forget to sleep and eat. His handmade lacquerware, beds, comb boxes, etc., are decorated with colorful and exquisite. The history books record that during the Ming Dynasty's apocalypse years, the beds built by craftsmen were extremely bulky, and more than a dozen people could move, with many materials and very ordinary styles.
Zhu Yu school on their own pondering, design patterns, personally saw wood nail board, more than a year to create a bed, bed board can be folded, carry and move are very convenient, the bed frame is also carved with a variety of patterns, beautiful and generous. It is said that all the wooden utensils and pavilions he has seen can be made. Zhu Yu likes to build houses, likes to be clever, often after the house is created, he is happy to dance, repeatedly appreciate, and when the happiness is over, he immediately destroys it, recreates the new sample production, and never gets tired. He demolished and demolished it like this, and never got tired of it.
From the fifth year of the Apocalypse to the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the Ming Dynasty carried out a huge reconstruction project of the Imperial Pole Hall, the Middle Pole Hall and the Jianji Hall, from the pillar and the upper beam to the sword hanging plate, Zhu Youxiao was present at the scene of the whole project. He is both a designer, an architect, and a builder, which is not to be described as powerful.
Because Zhu Youxiao was often busy with fun and neglecting the government, so he handed over all his official duties to Wei Zhongxian, and the Ming Dynasty was in the hands of Wei Zhongxian, and due to excessive play, Zhu Youxiao was ill, he was often bloodless, weak and weak, and in August of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao, accompanied by Keshi, Wei Zhongxian and others, went to Xiyuan to play on a boat. Drink alcohol on a large boat in the shallow waters north of the bridge. He went to the deep water with Wang Tiqian, Wei Zhongxian, and two close eunuchs to make a boat splash, but was blown over by a gust of wind, accidentally fell into the water, and almost drowned.
Although he was rescued, after this fright, he fell ill from then on, and many treatments were ineffective, and his health deteriorated. Later, Shangshu Huo Weihua offered a "fairy medicine" called "Linglu Drink", because its taste was sweet and delicious, Zhu Yuxue drank it every day, so that he suffered from swelling disease, gradually swollen, and eventually became bedridden. In August, Zhu Youxiao summoned cabinet ministers and ministers at the Qianqing Palace, and issued an edict saying that Wei Zhongxian and Wang Tiqian's loyalty to the emperor could be used to discuss state affairs. He also made Wei Zhongxian's nephew Wei Liangdong the Marquis of Dong'an.
Zhu Youjian
Zhu Youxiao had a premonition that he would not be able to come much, so he summoned the fifth brother Zhu You, the King of Letters, into the bedroom and said, "Come, my brother should be Yao Shun." He was ordered to succeed to the throne, and the next day, he summoned the cabinet minister Huang Liji and said: "Yesterday I summoned the King of Faith, and I was very happy, and my body felt slightly better." "In August, Zhu Youxiao died in the Qianqing Palace.
Throughout Zhu Youxiao's life, he was not a good emperor, but a good carpenter, he was to a large extent an emperor without choice of helplessness, the life of the Emperor of the Apocalypse was extremely rich, but also exhausted the last bit of national strength of the Ming Dynasty, only seventeen years after his death, the Ming Dynasty collapsed, the "History of Ming" evaluation of him is: Ming since the Shizong, gangji day to Lingyi, the last year of the Shenzong, the destruction of the extreme. Although there are strong and heroic warriors, it is difficult to recover. And the emperor's cowardice, the women's temple steals the handle, and indiscriminately rewards fornication. Zhongliang is a tragic disaster, and billions of centrifuges are centrifugal. Although you do not want to die, how can you get it?
