Deducing the Fate of the Great Ming Dynasty for a Hundred Years (1)
Although he was secretly delighted, Zhu Gaochen still teased,""Dad, didn't you say you didn't want to eat?"
"How can you talk to me like that?" Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and pretended to be unhappy."You caused a ruckus in Jiming Temple. This one has eaten this chicken, but you're not allowed to eat it again!”
As he spoke, Zhu Di acted like a greedy old man and took the entire Beggar's Chicken for himself.
"Alright, alright, alright. You are the emperor, and your words are the imperial edict.”Zhu Gaochen waved his hand helplessly. He was completely defeated by Zhu Di's childish personality. He could only sit obediently at the side and watch him eat.
After Zhu Di finished eating, he patted his stomach in satisfaction. At the same time, it reminded him of his memories.
He said in a daze,
"This meal reminds me of Jingnan more than ten years ago. I led the army to attack Jinan, and Jianwen sent Ping An to encircle me.”
"This Ping 'an is also a rare general. He sent troops to rob my grain ships and sent 5,000 soldiers who were good at swimming across the river to Dezhou.”
"During that period of time, my troops did not have food supplies and could only kill horses to maintain their food. As time passed, my soldiers began to chew on tree bark.”
"Left with no choice, I can only retreat.”
"It's a pity that Ping 'an was unable to be used by me in the end.”
After saying that, Zhu Di sighed deeply.
Zhu Gaochen listened quietly without interrupting.
"Alright, I want to talk to you about serious matters now.”
After a moment of melancholy, Zhu Di's expression suddenly became serious. He said,"I hope that you can keep your mouth shut about what I'm about to say.”
Zhu Gaochen saw his serious expression and a trace of killing intent in his eyes. He said seriously,""Father, don't worry. I guarantee it with my life!”
"Zhen went to look for Yao Guangxiao earlier. Firstly, I asked him to deduce the fate of the country for the next hundred years! Secondly, I will calculate your fate."
"Let's talk about the first thing first. In deducing the fate of the Great Ming Dynasty for a hundred years, the old monk said that there would be three changes. The first change, the year of Xin Chou, the dragon flying in the sky, has already happened.”
"There are still two more changes. The old monk refused to elaborate. He only mentioned the second change, Gengyin Year, Dragon Battle in the Wilderness. The third change, blood-red, black-yellow, Jiawu Year, Proud Dragon Regrets.”
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochen with a serious expression and said,""Although you are mischievous, you are talented and intelligent. Do you know what the old monk meant by the remaining two changes?”
He was willing to tell Zhu Gaochen because he could tell that Zhu Gaochen had no intention of fighting for the throne.
Moreover, this matter was still a rock in his heart. He might as well say it out and see if Zhu Gaochen could understand what it meant.
"The Great Ming Dynasty had a hundred years of national fortune. In the year of Gengyin, the dragon fought in the wilderness. In the year of Jiawu, the arrogant dragon regretted!”
Zhu Gaochen rested his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought.
According to the 100-year period.
The Battle of Jingnan had already happened.
Since the year 1399 was the starting point, the deadline would be 1499!
To Zhu Gaochen, it was actually very simple. He referred to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches mnemonic chant and deduced it from the period of 1399 to 1499.
Yao Guangxiao said that there were three great changes in the Ming Dynasty in a hundred years.
For example, in 1399, which happened to be the year of Xin Chou, Zhu Di successfully seized the Ming Dynasty from Jianwen during the Battle of Jingnan!
The second variation was the year of Gengyin, or the year of the tiger. The corresponding number was: 30, which was the year 1430!
Zhu Gaochen thought about it again and again. In the history he had learned, nothing major happened in the Ming Dynasty in 1430.
If there was, it should be in 1426 AD, when the Han King Zhu Gaoxu rebelled!
Therefore, Yao Guangxiao deduced the second change in the fate of the Ming Dynasty, Gengyin Year, Dragon Battle in the Wilderness.
It should be a sign that Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, would rebel, but the timing was wrong and it was delayed for four years.
After all, besides being a monk, Yao Guangxiao was also an outstanding physiognomist.
However, the physiognomist's deductions were both true and false.
As for the third change, in the year of Jiawu, the arrogant dragon had regrets.
In the year of Jiawu, the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches were one of the Heavenly Stems. They were ranked 31st, and the corresponding numbers were: 4。
According to this point in time, the third change in the Ming Dynasty's fate, the year of Jiawu, referred to the 14th year of AD, the incident of Zhu Qizhen's northern expedition to Wala being defeated and captured.
History called it the Tumu Fortress Rebellion!
Zhu Di saw that Zhu Gaochen was silent for a long time. Sometimes, he frowned, and sometimes, he looked calm.
"What?" he asked curiously. Do you have any leads?"
"No, I haven't." Zhu Gaochen shook his head. It was enough for him to know about this historical process alone. There was no need to tell the old man.
"Forget it, you don't know physiognomy." Zhu Di did not blame him.
Worried that Zhu Di would ask, Zhu Gaochen quietly changed the topic and asked,""Oh right, Father, didn't you tell the old monk my fate? What did the old monk say?"
"That old fellow said that you are blessed by the heavens and that your life is made by yourself!”Zhu Di said.
"This old monk only knows how to be mysterious.”Zhu Gaochen couldn't help but complain to Yao Guangxiao.
