Ming Dynasty Red Pill Strange Case: Zhu Changluo died violently after only one month on the throne, and the truth has not yet been solved

author:Let's talk about memorabilia

As the last feudal dynasty dominated by the Han Chinese, Daming is undoubtedly the intention of many people.

It has the iron skeleton of the Son of Heaven guarding the gate of the country and the death of the king, and also has the feat of seven voyages to the West. The emperors of the Zhu family were all very individualistic, and they had been fighting with the ministers all their lives.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there were four major cases, and at this time, the Zhu family was the supreme ruler in the world, holding the power of life and death. At the sound of an order, countless families were destroyed. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were also three major cases, but they were the subject and the guest, and the emperor became a pawn in the hands of the ministers.

The next thing to talk about is the Red Pill case, one of the "three major cases at the end of the Ming Dynasty".

Ming Dynasty Red Pill Strange Case: Zhu Changluo died violently after only one month on the throne, and the truth has not yet been solved

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="2" > shortest-lived emperor</h1>

On July 21, 1620, the Wanli Emperor fell ill and died. Zhu Changluo, who had been trembling and suffering for a long time in the position of prince, finally "became a wife for many years" and ascended to the supreme throne.

On the first day of August, Zhu Changluo held an enthronement ceremony and changed his name to Yuan Taichang. When the new emperor succeeded to the throne, he was bound to appease the world, so Zhu Changluo issued a silver reward of 1 million taels to the border guards stationed in Liaodong and dismissed miscellaneous taxes, which made the "government and the opposition moved."

For Zhu Changluo's state at that time, the historical records are "Yu Lu Anhe" and "Chong Pu no disease", in short, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it, and everyone is looking forward to his subsequent ruling career.

However, things did not go according to people's wishes, and only ten days after ascending the throne, Zhu Changluo fell ill.

The magic thing was that Zhu Changluo actually reprimanded the tai doctor who came to see the doctor and let the internal servant Cui Wensheng see him. This Cui Wensheng is not a medical saint, but he brags that he will have two shots on weekdays. In order not to lose face in front of the emperor, he had no experience and directly opened a square.

One dares to open, one dares to eat.

Trust is sometimes a "double-edged sword", which can bring true feelings and disasters.

Zhu Changluo, who had finished taking the medicine, pulled his stomach thirty-four times overnight, and fell unconscious, directly becoming a critical state.

At that time, the first assistant was Fang Congzhe, who had a good relationship with Zheng Guifei, and he hurried to the Taihe Gate with his cabinet ministers to ask the Tai doctor about the emperor. The tai doctor said that the emperor hated that their medicine was too slow to effect, so he used the miscellaneous medicine, and if they changed back to their original formula, they might be saved.

"I will then go and advise the emperor to use the medicine according to your formula." Fang Congzhe said solemnly.

After noon, Fang Congcao had eaten lunch and was about to write a fold of advice. The sharp voice of the inner attendant came from the Taihe Gate: "The emperor urgently summoned the first assistant to enter the palace." ”

What followed was naturally a touching dialogue between the monarch and the courtier. Zhu Changluo was afraid that he would not be able to resist, and Fang Congzhe said that the problem was not big, and the emperor would definitely get better and so on. It's just that no matter what Fang Congzhe said, Zhu Changluo still couldn't believe in Taiyi. In desperation, Fang Congzhe had no choice but to say: "Long live if you can't believe in the Tai Doctor, the subject should spread the word to the world and summon famous doctors." ”

Hearing the words of the famous doctor, Zhu Changluo came to the spirit and asked, "Didn't you hear that someone from hongxu temple had taken medicine, and why hadn't it been sent over?" ”

Fang Congzhe frowned and replied, "Li Kezhao of the Hongxu Temple said that he had an immortal to cure the disease of longevity, and after several deliberations, the minister thought that he could not be gullible, so he rebuked him." ”

"The Tai Doctor is useless, and the Immortal Fang is not credible, so why don't you let Shuo wait for death?" Zhu Changluo looked at Fang Congzhe angrily. Seeing that the latter was so frightened that he prostrated his head, he said with great excitement, "You should pass on the will, and you must try this immortal formula." ”

Although Fang Congzhe had been delaying, he could not withstand Zhu Changluo's urging in the end. He had no choice but to accompany Li Kezhao into the palace with the so-called immortal medicine, planning to act opportunistically.

At this time, although Zhu Changluo was somewhat emaciated, his sanity was still clear. After Li Kezhuo offered the medicine, he saw that everyone around him was suspicious, so he ate one himself. Zhu Changluo's eyes lit up, causing people to take water and swallow it directly into the dragon's body.

I don't know if it is a psychological effect, Zhu Changluo, who felt the medicinal power for a while, opened his eyes, smiled and said, "Sure enough, it is an immortal medicine, Li Kezhuo, if you take another pill tomorrow, you will probably be cured." ”

Li Kezhao respectfully replied, "There is indeed a pill in the minister's house, but the chief immortal pointed out that after the first pill is eaten for three days, he can take the second pill, and the minister will give it to Banzai when he arrives." ”

Zhu Changluo naturally nodded and agreed, "Well, after Yuan's illness is cured, he will definitely give you a promotion." ”

It is strange to say that Zhu Changluo, who took the immortal medicine, seemed to have really healed most of his illness. In the next two days, in addition to recuperating in the study, he walked out of the door of the main hall twice. If you stop taking the second pill at this time and continue to let the doctor condition it, there may be no later things.

Unfortunately, there was no if, Zhu Changluo still took the second pill in the end, and then suddenly returned to heaven that night.

He became the shortest-reigning emperor of the Ming Dynasty and served only one month.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" > a messy aftermath</h1>

Putting the emperor to death, such a heinous event, according to common sense, it is impossible to pass without implicating a thousand children and eight hundred people. However, the end was that Fang Congzhe withdrew from the case, and the main culprit, Li Kezhuo, was also sentenced to "deportation" two years later, and still saved his life.

Isn't that messy? The reason why the "Red Pill Case" is called the mystery case at the end of the Ming Dynasty is also here.

The reason for this situation is, in the final analysis, the problem of party struggle that has not been resolved during the Wanli calendar.

In the fourteenth year of the Wanli Calendar, Emperor Mingshenzong's favorite Concubine Zheng Guifei gave birth to the third prince, Zhu Changxun. Under Aiwu and Wu, The Myōshin Sect wanted to abolish Nagatochi and make this young son the crown prince. This operation was performed by almost every emperor of every dynasty, and the result was a chicken feather, and Daming was no exception.

At that time, the imperial court had roughly three forces. They were the forces of the Donglin Party, the Qi Chu Zhejiang Party, and Zheng Guifei. The three factions fight openly and secretly, the emperor is in the middle of the reconciliation, not to make one side sit large, but also in line with the imperial power technique, but the level of the emperor is extremely demanding, and the slightest carelessness will overturn.

Studying under Zhang Juzheng's Wanli, the level is still passable. At the beginning of the struggle, the three forces did not do anything out of the ordinary. However, the harmonious situation was broken by a "strife case".

In the forty-third year of the Wanli Calendar, a man named Zhang Cha suddenly broke into the Ciqing Palace of the crown prince Zhu Changluo with the intention of assassinating. The weapon this person took was a stick made of jujube wood, also known as a stick, so it was called a "hammer case." ”

An ordinary person without any background can accurately find the prince's residence and commit the murder, saying that there is no one behind it, I am afraid that no one will believe it. This also means that one side has begun to do things without a bottom line.

Well, let's "no bottom line" together.

So you sang and I took the stage and attacked each other with the power that we each had. For example, after the QiChu Party seized the power of Jingcha, it vigorously cleaned up the Donglin Party. During the Battle of Salhu, the Donglin Party counterattacked with various mysterious operations, which eventually affected the war situation.

This chaotic situation, although Wanli can suppress it, will eventually affect many things. To give a simple example, if you want to do something, if you do, it will greatly increase your strength and pose a threat to me, so I will do everything I can to ruin your business. The end result is that nothing can be done.

This is the greatest disadvantage of party struggle.

After Wanli's death, Zhu Changluo succeeded to the throne, and the three forces once again dueled. They all wanted the support of the new emperor and let their side sit on the throne. However, the path taken by Zhu Changluo is still balanced in the middle, which has become a stumbling block for the three parties.

As a result, Zhu Changluo was killed by two "red pills".

But when everyone is a murderer, there is no real murderer. Therefore, Fang Congzhe and Li Kezhao, under the protection of the already Fang camp, both fell back with their whole bodies.

The Emperor of the Hall, such a magical method of death, turned out to be a thunderous and rainy ending. It seems that the end of the Zhu family dynasty is revealed in the dark, and the cycle of history is nothing more than that.

Of course, this conclusion is only a speculation based on the situation at that time. Although it can justify itself, in the end, there is no substantial evidence to prove that Zhu Changluo was victimized by the conspiracy.

After all, Zhu Changluo was already more than forty years old at that time, and in ancient times, this age was already considered an old man. Moreover, from the beginning of Jiajing, the descendants of the Zhu family were more obsessed with Dan Medicine, and before the Red Pill, Zhu Changluo was likely to have taken a lot of medicine, otherwise he would not have attached so much importance to the so-called immortal medicine.

Therefore, whether his death is related to the red pill is still unsolved. What exactly is the ingredient in the red pill is also very controversial, and it has naturally become a mystery for eternity.
