Zhu Gaoye was pouring tea for Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di.
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, his hands did not stop moving.
Instead, he poured tea and said,
"I wonder what the two of you think of the rise and fall of the dynasty?”
Hearing Zhu Gaoye's words, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was originally satisfied, instinctively frowned.
There was no other reason than the question that Zhu Gaoye asked.
It was a taboo that ordinary people could not touch.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's brows relaxed again.
Because the person in front of him was not an ordinary person.
The blood of the Zhu family flowed in his body.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment and said,
"The rise and fall of a dynasty is naturally because the ruler is unjust, causing the people to live in poverty.”
"If the commoners can't survive, they will naturally rebel and fight for their own survival.”
What Zhu Yuanzhang said was only the most obvious reason.
Because since ancient times, the reason why people rebelled was nothing more than natural disasters and man-made disasters.
Either way, as long as the commoners could not live.
The common people would rise up.
He had rebelled because he could not live anymore.
Coupled with the chaotic times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he wanted to earn his own life.
In the end, they managed to conquer such a huge empire.
However, this was just the surface.
The reason for the fall of a dynasty was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Including Zhu Yuanzhang, he had also experienced some political influence after becoming an emperor.
Only then did he know that the matter was far from as simple as he thought.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's current identity was Zhang San, who met Zhu Gaoye for the first time.
Naturally, he couldn't talk too much about it and just brushed it off lightly.
Zhu Di sat there without saying a word. His father was there.
This was not a topic that he was qualified to participate in.
He only needed to listen quietly.
Zhu Di was only worried that Zhu Gaoye would say something outrageous.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy.
Zhu Gaoye, who had refilled Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's cups of tea.
He looked at the two of them and said,
"Please!"
Zhu Gaoye was not surprised by Zhu Yuanzhang's answer.
If he were to stand in the position of Zhang San.
This was the most he could say.
And at the end, he had to praise the current imperial court.
It meant that the current imperial court was different from the previous one.
Otherwise, these words would spread.
It would be very easy to bring death upon oneself!
However, Zhu Gaoye didn't care about this.
Instead, he changed the topic and said to the two of them,
"Then do the two of you know what kind of crisis my Big Ming is in now?”
Hearing Zhu Gaoye's words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were stunned.
The Great Ming Empire had only been established for over twenty years.
He was like a newborn baby.
It was growing healthily, and Zhu Yuanzhang severely punished corrupt officials.
Everything was developing in a beautiful direction.
What kind of crisis could Da Ming be in right now?
Speaking of danger, Zhu Yuanzhang looked deeply at his grandson in front of him.
I'm afraid you're the biggest danger to Da Ming!
However, although she thought so in her heart, she said,
"This old man doesn't know. I hope that young friend won't be stingy with your guidance!”
Zhu Di also pricked up his ears.
He was ready to hear what Zhu Gaoye had to say.
When Zhu Gaoye heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he waved his hand and said,
"I don't dare to teach you. I just have my own opinion.”
After saying that, Zhu Gaoye said solemnly,"
"Today's Great Ming seems to be developing vigorously."
"But many things are beginning to show.”
"The decline of a dynasty doesn't wait until the end of the dynasty.”
"Usually, it's the third generation of the dynasty's founding, at most five generations of monarchs."
"It can determine how long this dynasty can prosper.”
"Let's not talk about the distant past. Let's just talk about the Tang and Song Dynasties. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty worked hard to make the country prosperous."
"When it came to Tang Xuanzong, of course, the Tang Xuanzong in his later years was too muddle-headed. Other than an emperor who reigned for more than ten days, there were five emperors.”
"These emperors worked hard to govern the country, allowing the Great Tang to last for 289 years!”
"This is also because the Great Tang is rich in martial virtue. It has dragged this dying empire along for more than two hundred years.”
"When we reach the Song Dynasty, the Song Taizu Chen Qiao mutiny, and the emperor's robe is draped over his body.”
"From the moment he became the emperor, the Song Dynasty had already entered a period of decline!”
"Because he didn't get the country properly, he was afraid that Chen Qiao's story would repeat itself, so he emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, crazily suppressing the generals.”
"By the time the Northern Song Dynasty is destroyed, the entire Zhao Song Regime will be destroyed.”
"The so-called Southern Song Dynasty is just a regime that is struggling to survive.”
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang had a flash of understanding.
The Great Tang was founded on martial arts and had enjoyed the country for nearly three hundred years.
The Northern Song Dynasty was founded on literature, and in the end, it only lasted less than 200 years.
Although there was only a 100-year gap between them.
It didn't seem like much, but it seemed to be going downhill.
The last part was always the fastest.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang roughly understood the meaning of Zhu Gaoye's words.
But what did this have to do with his Big Ming?
Ever since he ascended the throne.
In addition to punishing those corrupt officials,
There were many restrictions on the generals who had made contributions.
According to Zhu Gaoye, he didn't seem to have done anything wrong.
At this time, Zhu Gaoye continued,
"What I said is just the tip of the iceberg of a dynasty's problems!”
"The rise and fall of a dynasty is caused by many reasons!”
"It's not just between civil officials and generals."
"But civil officials are the most commonly used tools in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor."
"Their problems are often the biggest!”
Zhu Gaoye's words resonated with Zhu Yuanzhang.
From the first day of the Ming Dynasty,
He had never stopped killing corrupt officials!
And these scholars, who had read a lot of books and regarded themselves as the children of saints,
Once he became an official, it was as if he had changed into another person.
Embezzlement and bribery, he was no longer that official who took the world as his own responsibility!
This also gave Zhu Yuanzhang a headache.
It was as if these corrupt officials could never be killed!
Even if he had already done the heavy punishment of skinning the skin and planting the grass,
It still couldn't stop these people from embezzling.
At this moment, Zhu Gaoye said again,"
"I have a method that can kill Saints. I wonder if the two of you want to hear it?!”
As soon as he finished speaking, thunder suddenly sounded in the sky outside the door.
In an instant, a torrential rain fell between heaven and earth.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di heard Zhu Gaoye's words.
He instantly sat up straight and said in shock,
" What did you say?!"
