"After the reward, can I update the second half as soon as possible?”
"Since that's the case, then reward me!"
"Pass down the decree! Reward: 100 taels of gold! Ten bottles of fine wine!"
Pre-Qin historical juncture!
First Emperor Ying Zheng said. He really wanted to know who the next five meritorious emperors would be!
There were actually four people who could be said to be the 'One Emperor of the Ancient World'!
That was the 'One Emperor of the Ancient World'!
Not everyone could afford such a title!
Even Yang Jian, who had saved China from disaster, was not known as the greatest emperor in history!
In that case, besides him, Ying Zheng, the Ancestral Dragon of Huaxia, was there anyone else who was worthy of being called the 'one emperor of the age'?!
Ying Zheng did not believe it!
He didn't think that in the future, there would be anyone who would have greater achievements than him!
He wanted to see which juniors could be compared to him!
……
……
……
At the same time!
The historical juncture of the Great Han Dynasty!
"Out of the remaining five emperors, four of them can be called the one emperor in history?!”
"The title of the One Emperor of the Ages isn't something that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry deserves!”
"Zhen would like to see who else is worthy of these four words besides Zhen!”
"Pass down the decree! Reward: a Ferghana Horse! Ten bolts of Shu brocade!" (Shu Brocade existed in the Spring and Autumn Period, and flourished during the Three Kingdoms Period.)
"Wei Qing, go pick it yourself! Pick the best Ferghana Horse!"
Liu Che waved his hand and started rewarding them!
In fact, this emperor of the Han Dynasty even let Wei Qing personally pick it!
Who was Wei Qing?
That was the Great Commander-in-Chief and Great General of the Great Han! He was ranked among the three dukes! His power was overwhelming!
For such a big shot to personally pick a horse, it could be seen how eager Liu Che was to see the second half of the Ten Great Merit Emperors!
……

……
On the other side!
A historical juncture in the Great Tang!
"Reward: one beast head agate cup and ten bottles of Western Region wine!”
Although our Emperor Taizong Li Shi Min was in a very bad mood, he still rewarded him!
And it was a great reward!
Beast Head Agate Cup!
This was a national treasure in modern China! Moreover, it was a national treasure that was not allowed to be brought out of China!
One had to know that national treasures were also divided into levels! Ordinary national treasures could be brought out of China and exhibited overseas!
However, top-notch national treasures were not allowed to be taken out of the museum!
The beast head agate cup was a top-notch national treasure!
Li Shimin, if you don't reward him, then it's fine. If you reward him, it's a national treasure!
From this, one could see how wealthy the Great Tang was and how desperate Li Shimin was!
The reason why he rewarded him so heavily was so that he could see the second half of the Ten Great Merits of the Ten Great Emperors faster!
Yes, it was!
Our Emperor Taizong, Li Shimin, is very eager to see the next round of stocktaking!
He really wanted to know if he was selected or not!
If he was selected, it meant that the heavens had recognized him!
For Li Shiming, who had no glorious means of getting to the top, the recognition of the heavens was too important!
If Heaven's Will approved of him, it meant that the future Chinese people would also approve of him!
Then he would no longer be a tyrant who killed his own brothers and desired power, but a sage who had both virtue and integrity and left his name in history!
……
……
……
A historical juncture of the Ming Dynasty!
The style of Yingtian Prefecture was completely different from that of the Pre-Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, and the Tang Palace.
Ying Zheng of the Pre-Qin Dynasty, Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, and Li Shimin of the Tang Palace were all being rewarded.
Only Zhu Yuanzhang did not!
He was a cowherd boy from a truly poor family. When he was young, he could not even afford to eat. He knew the sufferings of the people at the bottom. Therefore, he would not use the money from the Ming Dynasty's national treasury to reward the so-called heaven!
With the silver, wouldn't it be good to help the victims?!
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty had just been established, and there were a lot of things to do. One tael of silver had to be split into two, so how could there be spare money to reward?!
In any case, the second half of the Ten Great Meritorious Emperors would be announced sooner or later, so there was no rush.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed his curiosity and anticipation for the second half of the Ten Great Meritorious Emperors.
He took a deep breath and looked at Zhu Di.
Yes, it was.
The King of Yan, Zhu Di, had returned to the capital!
He had not gone far. In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang had sent people to rush 800 miles. In less than half a day, they had caught up with the King of Yan.
At this moment, the ten-year-old Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, was kneeling in the hall. His hands were constantly tugging at the corner of his clothes. He was obviously very nervous.
He did not dare to look at his father.
When Zhu Yuanzhang urgently summoned him back to the capital, he already knew that the matter had been exposed. His father must have seen the painting.
At that time, Zhu Di wanted to run away and even wanted to rebel, but he did not have the strength!
Now, he was still young, so how could he fight Zhu Yuanzhang?!
He could only accept his fate and allow the imperial guards to rush 800 li to bring him back to the Ying Tian Prefecture!
Zhu Di didn't know what his fate would be.
But since he had already returned, he would leave it to fate!
At the thought of this, the ten-year-old Zhu Di bravely raised his head. He was no longer afraid and actually looked into his father's eyes!
One had to know that this was disrespectful!
But Zhu Di just had to do it!
"Not bad!"
"If you want to become an emperor, you must have the courage to fear nothing!”
"You know that your ambition has been exposed, but you still dare to look at us.”
It was beyond Zhu Di's expectations!
Zhu Yuanzhang was not enraged!
His father was actually praising him. Moreover, a hint of admiration flashed across his father's eyes!
Was he hearing things or seeing things?
His father knew that he had the intention to usurp the throne, but not only was he not angry, he even praised him?!
Little Zhu Di was still a child after all. He was not that shrewd and could not guess Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts, so he was a little confused at this moment.
"Di 'er, let me ask you, do you want to be the Crown Prince? Do you want to inherit the throne after a hundred years?”
After praising Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang did not dawdle and went straight to the point.
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was very serious, and his gaze was very sharp!
He stared at his son, wanting to get the real answer!
"Father…"
Zhu Di was stunned.
He did not expect Zhu Yuanzhang to ask him such a fatal question!
How was he supposed to answer that?
Tell the truth? Answer yes?
No!
Once he told the truth, it meant that he had the intention to fight for the throne! And the struggle for the crown prince was precisely the root of the country's chaos!
For example, the Rebellion of the Eight Princes during the Western Jin Dynasty had directly led to the chaos of the Five Princes!
Based on Zhu Di's understanding of his father, once he revealed his desire to fight for the throne, the old-fashioned Zhu Yuanzhang would most likely send him to the border for the sake of the country's stability!
Therefore, he couldn't tell the truth!
But…should he lie?
If he lied, he would lose the chance to become an emperor forever!
Little Zhu Di gritted his teeth. His brain was working rapidly, and his eyes were flickering!
A moment later.
Zhu Di gritted his teeth and made up his mind to tell the truth!
Since his ambition had already been exposed, he might as well tear open the window paper and be honest with him!
Even if his father sent him to the border in the end, it didn't matter!
Everything was for the great cause!
Everything was for the throne!
I'm going all out!
Zhu Di took a deep breath!
His gaze turned from flickering to firm!
His expression changed from fear to determination!
He looked straight at Zhu Yuanzhang and said word by word,"
"Imperial Father, your son wants to!"
