The scene changed.
The background music became even more desolate.
On the tilted tree.
Emperor Chongzhen and the eunuch were both wearing white robes and hanging from it.
The distant shouts were getting closer and closer.
The uprising peasants surrounded them from the foot of the mountain.
Everyone looked at Emperor Chongzhen's corpse in surprise.
The emperor of a generation, the Ming Empire.
They were completely destroyed here.
A line of text slowly appeared on the screen.
"On the 18th day of the 3rd month of the 17th year of Chongzhen, the desperate and helpless Emperor Chongzhen gathered his spirits and held his last family banquet.”
"After the banquet that night, Emperor Chongzhen arranged for Crown Prince Cijian, his third son Prince Ding Cijiong, and his fourth son Prince Yong Cihuan to escape from the palace.”
"After that, Emperor Chongzhen personally killed his wives, concubines, and daughters in the palace. His youngest daughter, Princess Zhaoren, was killed, his eldest daughter, Princess Changping, was seriously injured, and the virtuous Empress Zhou hanged herself in the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.”
"Early morning of the 19th.”
"Wang Chengen left the Forbidden City and climbed the imperial forbidden garden, Mei Mountain. He hanged himself under an old pagoda tree at the age of 35.”
" When he died, he covered his face with his hair, wore a white blue robe and white thin pants, barefoot on one foot and silk socks on the other.”
"Blood on the clothes."
"The Ming Empire that ruled China for 276 years has been completely destroyed.”
When the video reached this point, the background music suddenly turned sorrowful, revealing a sense of sadness!
"I killed my wife and daughter?？”
Emperor Chongzhen looked at this scene in disbelief.
A huge terror instantly enveloped his heart.
His legs went soft.
He sat on the ground.
The crown on her head was also in a mess.
"I have actually fallen into such a situation."
Emperor Chongzhen watched himself in the video as he walked step by step towards the crooked tree and hung himself on it.
A generation of Ming Emperor had ended up like this.
Emperor Chongzhen's heart felt as if it had been cut into pieces by a thousand knives. It was a heart-wrenching pain!
The emperors of the Ming Dynasty in the parallel world burst into tears when they saw this scene.
"Big Ming is dead!"
"The Zhu family's Ming is dead!"
Emperor Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang, stared at the video in a daze. Tears flowed from his tiger eyes. His entire body was like a volcano that was about to erupt, and his entire body was trembling slightly.
"My Great Ming! My descendants were actually slaughtered by the Qing Dynasty!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was already in his sixties when he suddenly saw these things from the video.
His entire body suddenly bent.
Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth, his entire body trembling.
Her lips moved.
He muttered.
"Great Ming, the 17th generation is dead, dead!"
"The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed."
The current Zhu Yuanzhang was no longer the great emperor in history.
He was just an ordinary old man who had heard of the death of his descendants and the destruction of the Ming Empire.
Zhu Yuanzhang was no longer the young Zhu Zhongba who could fight with Chen Youliang at Poyang Lake for several months.
On the 18th day of the 9th month of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was born into a poor peasant family.
In the third year of Zhizheng, there was a drought in Haozhou.
In the spring of the following year, there was a serious locust plague and plague.
In less than half a month, Zhu Yuanzhang's father, elder brother, and mother passed away one after another.
Only Zhu Yuanzhang and his second brother were left. The family did not have the money to buy a coffin, nor did they have a piece of land to bury their loved ones. Their neighbor, Liu Jizu, gave them a cemetery.
The two brothers wrapped the bodies in a few pieces of torn clothes and buried their parents on the land of the Liu family.
In order to survive, Zhu Yuanzhang, his second brother, sister-in-law, and nephew were forced to separate and escape.
It was precisely because of this tragic experience that Zhu Yuanzhang cared so much about his family, more than any other emperor in history.
His son!
His wife!
His grandson!
His descendant!
They were all the people that Zhu Yuanzhang valued the most when he saw his family starve to death!
Zhu Yuanzhang's greatest wish had always been for his descendants to live a carefree life and not have to worry about insufficient food.
This wish had not changed even after he became the emperor!
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to make the princes and generals loyal to the Zhu Ming Dynasty, in the fifth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang made the Iron Banner to warn the princes and marquises.
In the eighth year of Hongwu, he compiled "Zi Zhi Tong Xun," repeatedly emphasizing that his officials should be loyal to him, not to deceive, not to deceive.
In the 13th year of Hongwu, he compiled the Record of Officials 'Commandments, which recorded the actions of 212 rebellious officials of the princes and princes in the past to educate his officials.
In the 19th year of Hongwu, the Records of Zhi Jie was issued." This book collected more than 100 things from the Han, Tang, and Song Dynasties that were rebellious ministers. It was given to the ministers and instructors to teach them so that they could learn from it."
In the 13th year of Hongwu, in order to allow the next emperor of the Ming Empire to easily take over, Zhu Yuanzhang removed the thorns for him and killed Prime Minister Hu Weiyong in the name of conspiring against him. He massacred three clans and implicated more than 15,000 people.
After that, there were a few more big prisons, causing the "Hu Weiyong Prison" to continue to expand.
In the twenty-third year of Hongwu, Li Shanchang and others were also sentenced to death for conspiring with Hu Weiyong, and more than seventy adult family members were killed.
The famous Confucian minister Song Lian was exiled to Sichuan because of his grandson. He also died of illness on the way. The case lasted for ten years, and dozens of nobles were implicated, totaling more than thirty thousand people.
In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, the commander of the Royal Guards reported that Lan Yu had rebelled. Zhu Yuanzhang immediately ordered him to be arrested and interrogated by the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Three days later, Zhu Yuanzhang executed Lan Yu, followed by a large-scale purge and execution.
After Lan Yu was imprisoned, the prison said that he and Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan, Zhang Yi, Marquis of Heqing, Zhu Shou, Marquis of Dingyuan, Wang Bi, Marquis of Dongguan, He Rong, Minister of Civil Affairs Zhan Hui, Minister of Revenue Fu Youwen, etc. rebelled.
There were 25,000 people who were implicated in this case.
After the Hulan Prison.
Zhu Yuanzhang was not satisfied. After more than a year, Fu Youde, the Duke of Ying, petitioned to give Huaiyuan a thousand acres of land. Not only was he not allowed, but he was sentenced to death.
Wang Bi, Marquis of Dingyuan, was ordered to commit suicide.
Feng Sheng, Duke of Song, was also sentenced to death. After a few party jails, a large number of meritorious officials in the early Ming Dynasty were killed.
Everything that Zhu Yuanzhang had done.
He did it for his descendants.
The fault lies in the present generation, and the merit lies in the later generations of the Ming Dynasty.
"Ever since I ascended the throne, I have always wanted to remove the threat to Yun Wen's succession.”
"But now, it seems that doing this can only benefit the current generation. I can't help or control the next Ming Emperor.”
"Great Ming is destined to perish, and our descendants are destined to suffer humiliation?”
"Is this the fate of our Zhu family?”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the Ming Dynasty and his will to fight against fate, just like the little monk from Huangjue Temple.
But it was a pity.
His life was tough, but it did not mean that the lives of his descendants would be as tough as his.
"We can't interfere with the peasant uprising of the Ming Dynasty, but since the dynasty is going to be inherited by the Qing Dynasty.”
"Then we will completely eradicate the Manchu forces at the border for the rest of our lives!”
"No matter what danger our Big Ming is in!”
"We must uproot everything that can be uprooted!”
Zhu Yuanzhang, who originally had nothing else to ask for, now had the greatest wish in his heart, which was to save the descendants of the Ming Dynasty who had died in his 17th generation.
He had never even considered himself.
