It had to be said.
A son understood his father.
In Zhu Yuanzhang's space-time.
He saw himself on the rankings.
Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally overjoyed.
His first reaction after being overjoyed was that he had the same thoughts as Zhu Di.
"Good, good, good! I have indeed obtained the approval of the immortal god! In this way, the gods and immortals will bring good weather. My Great Ming will also have the confidence to trample on the foreign races in the world and prevent the foreign races from messing up the country for that disappointing junior emperor. In the Hongwu Dynasty, clearing out the hidden dangers of the foreign races will be my future burden!”
"Also…Biao 'er and the others hope that the immortals and gods will take pity on them and give me a way to save them.”Zhu Yuanzhang's first thought after seeing that he had been chosen by the immortal god.
Just as Zhu Di had expected.
It was also to eliminate the alien races.
It was to protect the future generations.
The second thought.
It was about how to save the Crown Prince and his other sons. Kill Zhu Di? No, Zhu Yuanzhang had already sorted out the matter. The deaths of his sons in the future had little to do with Zhu Di.
Zhu Di had become the emperor, but it was just as the immortal god had said. He had only picked up a big bargain. The deaths of his sons were only for other reasons.
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to find the reason.
Then, he would solve the problem.
Therefore.
They were also willing to use the divine artifacts that the immortals and gods might reward, or other extraordinary things, to exchange for such an opportunity. Among the many royal families in history, the unique characteristic of the Zhu family was that the founding emperor attached great importance to the deep feelings of family members.
Even though he had no idea how many generations of descendants, Zhu Yuanzhang still wanted to do something for them. It was precisely because of the importance he attached to his family that he had been searching hard these days to find out if his children were really dead. Naturally, he had been searching for a solution at the same time, but the future was uncertain.
He had insomnia.
Zhu Yuanzhang had not slept well for the past three days.
At this moment.
He was excited that the country would have a good foundation. At the same time, he was praying that among the rewards from the immortals and gods, there would be help that would allow him to reverse the fate of his sons.
Yes, it was.
This was Emperor Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang. Logically speaking, in his life, he had fought all over the world and experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood. With such an experience, he should be a ruthless emperor.
In fact.
There were indeed many things that could not cause too many waves in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart. However, it was an exception when it came to his family.
The most ruthless imperial family? Zhu Yuanzhang was not one of them. He had lost his family when he was young. He had seen his loved ones die with his own eyes and had deeply experienced the feeling of loneliness and helplessness.
Zhu Yuanzhang's family was very poor when he was young. In our words today, he was so poor that he couldn't even open a pot.
His parents and brother had all starved to death, but the fact that they still loved him in his early years had affected his entire life. Therefore, when faced with his relatives and family.
He would always be Zhu Zhongba.
It's not Emperor Hongwu.
To be honest.
In the future.
People had very different opinions about Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty.
Some people felt that Zhu Yuanzhang had been a monk and a beggar, but he was able to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty established by the Mongolians and create the Ming Empire. He was very impressive and worthy of praise.
However, there were also many people who thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was too cruel.
In his later years, he had killed many meritorious officials.
Many of the meritorious officials who had followed him to conquer the world had been killed.
Therefore, people felt that he was cooking the dead rabbit and dog. Was Zhu Yuanzhang a wise ruler or a fatuous ruler? Why did he kill so many meritorious officials?
Few people had investigated the reason behind this. The Beggar Emperor was the impression that many people had of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. The reason why this image was deeply rooted in people's hearts was because Zhu Yuanzhang was one of the very few people in Chinese history who had risen from the lowest level of society to the highest ruler of feudal society, the emperor.
Since ancient times, many peasant uprisings had suffered too much. After they turned over, they began to indulge in wine and sex and let down their guard. Their previous lofty aspirations had also been lost in wine and meat. On the other hand, Zhu Yuanzhang had started as a beggar and had suffered countless cold gazes and ridicule.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was different. He was ambitious and never relaxed.
After the people at the bottom of the society had risen, he did not become greedy for pleasure. Instead, he worked harder to govern the country and fight corruption. He hated corrupt officials and bullies who bullied the people to the bone. Therefore, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty could be called clean. However, it was also because of this that he killed countless people and slaughtered all the meritorious officials around him.
This was the reason why his image had been greatly reduced and why people said that he would be cooked if the rabbit died. In fact, although the people he killed were meritorious, which one of them should not be killed? As an emperor who had once been at the lowest level, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally could not stand corruption. He also knew that corruption was the root cause of the Yuan Dynasty's demise.
It was this understanding that made him start a massacre. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it was because of corruption that the world was in chaos and uprising armies were surging everywhere.
From the perspective of historical justice and the way a dynasty was maintained, no one who understood the laws of history could say that Zhu Yuanzhang had killed the wrong person.
Zhu Yuanzhang was born poor.
Since childhood, his parents and brothers had all died because of the disaster in his hometown. The local officials were corrupt and did not provide disaster relief. Therefore, he especially hated the corrupt official Zhu Yuanzhang.
Only after Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor did the punishment for corruption become especially severe. It was stipulated that "anyone who embezzled more than 60 taels of silver would be executed". The method of execution was very cruel.
Especially his unique invention, the Skinning Dragon's Tongue Grass.
Moreover, if an official was corrupt, the entire family would be punished. This was not a big deal in a feudal society. In fact, it was more to deter corruption.
He also gave the people great power to supervise the officials. The people could directly go to the capital to complain. According to records, Zhu Yuanzhang killed more than 150,000 officials during his reign.
It could be said that the officials of Zhu Yuanzhang's era were indeed not easy to do. However, if you weren't corrupt, why would these things happen? As long as you didn't touch the red line, wouldn't it work? The real tyrants in history were temperamental, but Zhu Yuanzhang had clearly stated that he would only kill you if you did something.
How could such a person be called a tyrant? One should not persuade others to be good without suffering. If one had suffered like Zhu Yuanzhang, one would naturally understand why he hated corruption so much.
In fact, when Jiang Sheng was making this video about Zhu Yuanzhang.
He was very emotional about this.
Some marketing accounts had created things that directly misled many people, making them think that Zhu Yuanzhang was a tyrant. However, the strange thing was that these marketing accounts also said that Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty was a wise emperor.
This was really…laughable. They had both killed many people, so why was Kangxi called a sage king and Zhu Yuanzhang a tyrant? Was it because Zhu Yuanzhang killed nobles and officials, while Kangxi killed ordinary people? Who knew how many people in the future were misled by the marketing accounts manipulated by the rich and powerful?
They did not realize that as a commoner, the only person they could support was Zhu Yuanzhang. What Zhu Yuanzhang did was truly for the sake of the commoner.
After all, he was a great leader who had come from the bottom.
However, due to the tyranny of the Yuan government, the local officials of the Yuan Dynasty tried all kinds of ways to exploit the people, making the lives of the people very difficult. Zhu Yuanzhang's family was the same. His parents and an elder brother had nothing to eat and starved to death. This made Zhu Yuanzhang hate the Yuan Dynasty very much. He knew that only by defeating the Yuan Dynasty could he have a way out.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was 17 years old, his hometown was plagued by locusts and plagues. Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and brother passed away one after another. Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to become a monk in order to survive. Actually, at that time, it was very helpless. After all, filial piety was emphasized in ancient times.
If they were not forced to, no one would be willing to shave their hair and become a monk. This was a fate that was very difficult to accept in his time. However, Zhu Yuanzhang was, after all, a prodigy of his generation. Such a background did not affect him from establishing the Daming Dynasty. It really fulfilled the saying-heroes do not care about their background!
Zhu Yuanzhang's painful and tragic experiences in his early years also strengthened his belief in resisting the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty! He had cut through all the obstacles and thorns to kill his way out of the encirclement of various forces!
I was originally a commoner on the right side of the Huaihe River. What else can the world do to me?
Zhu Yuanzhang was originally a drifting duckweed. He stood up and took back the Han family's territory. At the same time, he liked to kill people, but the people he killed were all bad people.
What's wrong with this compared to the Braid Emperor?
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
In his youth, Zhu Yuanzhang was just a cowherd boy in the Huaihe River basin at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. He was just a little monk who had to wander outside for three years in order to barely survive.
However, it was this refugee who had once lost everything. From the age of 24, he joined the peasant uprising army and started as a soldier. After only 17 years of legendary struggle and war.
He actually ascended the throne of the founding emperor!
Such a character.
Would he not have the courage and breadth of mind?
No one would believe it!
Lan Yu was a great general. Many people regretted his death and felt that it was Zhu Yuanzhang's fault. However, if this guy was not greedy, why would Zhu Yuanzhang kill him?
The so-called fear of being overshadowed by merit?
Haha.
While killing these people.
The Zhu family's rule was already like an iron bucket. How could they only settle scores at the later stages? In the end, it was those people who stood at the top for a long time and began to harm the people.
Jun Bujian.
Even the husband of her beloved daughter was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang for selling tea horses.
Zhu Yuanzhang only hated corruption. His methods might be a little radical, but they were far from reaching the standards of a tyrant. Moreover, even a tyrant should not blame him.
However, many people could ignore the fact that if it weren't for Zhu Yuanzhang and his Ming Dynasty, China's culture might have completely disappeared in history.
The Central Plains at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was like a broken painting. Zhu Yuanzhang used himself as glue to piece the great rivers and mountains together again.
He still couldn't get any thanks?
This was a very sad phenomenon in the future. Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, established the Ming Dynasty, founded the Hongwu rule, severely punished corrupt officials, and built water conservancy projects. Overthrowing the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, restoring national equality, rebuilding the status of the suzerain of China, and allowing the Han people to escape the clutches of the Yuan Dynasty, such achievements were not recognized.
On the contrary, he held a plaited emperor in high esteem.
To be honest.
This made Jiang Sheng very unhappy when he was making the video and collecting information. Therefore, the purpose of the video he made this time was not just to commend Zhu Yuanzhang's achievements.
He also wanted to clear Zhu Yuanzhang's name!
Emperor Hongwu was indeed worthy of the title of Ming Zu!
