"Then Fang brat, how did our grandson Gao Chi perform after he ascended the throne?”
After listening to Fang Yunfei's description, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more interested in his grandson. For the first time, he used the word " ascended the throne ", which was a disguised admission that Zhu Di ascended the throne in another timeline.
"After Gao Chi ascended the throne…"
Fang Yunfei dragged his words, pondering how to open his mouth.
After all, Zhu Gaochi had only been in power for a short period of time. It had only been nine months, not even a year!
Wouldn't it be too hurtful to say it out loud?
He was so understanding, how could he do such a thing without EQ!
Who knew that Fang Yunfei's silence would directly give Zhu Yuanzhang and the other two a fright!
Little Fang/Mr. Fang suddenly stopped talking…
Could it be that something had happened to Gao Chi?
"Fang brat, did something happen to our grandson Gao Chi and he didn't take the position of fourth brother?”
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked.
Whether it was Jianwen cutting the vassal state or the King of Yan's Jingnan, the most fundamental reason was the accidental death of Crown Prince Zhu Biao and Crown Prince Zhu Xiongying.
Therefore, when he saw Fang Yunfei's expression, Emperor Hongwu immediately wondered if Gao Chi's grandson had also passed away unexpectedly and did not survive until the day he ascended the throne.
The others also thought of this.
As the father, Zhu Di looked at Fang Yunfei nervously. He was no longer as high-spirited as before.
"Not really. Zhu Gaochi himself succeeded the throne without any mishaps.”
Fang Yunfei shook his head and denied Zhu Yuanzhang's guess.
Zhu Gaochi lived for forty-seven years before he died.
Among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, whose average life expectancy was only forty-two years, it was considered to have died of old age.
"Could it be that my nephew Gao Chi's temperament changed drastically after he ascended the throne and did something that offended the heavens?”
Zhu Biao couldn't help but interrupt.
Although Zhu Yunwen was only five years old, she was well-behaved and quiet. She was very doted on by him.
Who would have thought that after he became the emperor, he would actually do something that would force his uncle to death?
Moreover, in addition to Zhu Yunwen, there were many emperors in history who changed their personalities after ascending the throne.
Because of this, Zhu Biao thought that Zhu Gaochi's personality might have changed.
Hearing his brother's question, Zhu Di, who had just heaved a sigh of relief, became nervous again.
No way, no way!
Would his son become as stupid and bad as his brother's son?
"Not really. Zhu Gaochi was the Emperor Renzong Xiao of the Ming Dynasty, who founded the rule of benevolence and propaganda after the Yongle Era. He could be considered one of the few wise emperors in the past dynasties.”
Fang Yunfei denied Zhu Biao's conjecture.
It is called benevolence if you do not forget your parents; It is called benevolence if you are not arrogant when you are rich and noble. Virtue to the people is called benevolence, benefit to the world is called benevolence; Benevolence is the essence of benevolence.
It is called filial piety to love the people with kindness and kindness; It is called filial piety to be good to parents. It is called filial piety to educate and punish the people of the four seas. It is called filial piety to not forget your parents. Virtue is added to the people and called filial piety.
Just from Zhu Gaochi's temple title and posthumous title, one could see his moral character and character.
Furthermore, Fang Yunfei had said that he had created the Rule of Renxuan.
This made Zhu Biao even more jealous.
She looked at Ling's child and then at her own child.
They were all children of the same age. Why was the difference so big?
He really had a son like Zhu Gaochi!
"Kid Fang, don't pant so much when you speak in the future! This old man was so scared that he thought that something had happened to Gao Chi's grandson!”
"That's right, Mr. Fang. You don't have to be so scary! Can't you just directly talk about Gao Chi's performance after he ascended the throne?”
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di protested.
"Let's put it this way, Zhu Gaochi's performance after he ascended the throne was also very outstanding.”
Fang Yunfei took a sip of tea and decided to pick a good topic to talk about."After Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, the year title was 'Hongxi'. He first stopped large-scale military operations. In other areas, he reduced corvee and taxes and let the people rest.”
"Not bad, not bad! After so many years of war, the people really needed to rest and recuperate.”Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
In the past dynasties, there would always be a period of recovery after a large-scale war.
For example, at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and less than one in ten people survived. Liu Bang could not even find four horses of the same color when he went out. Prime Minister Xiao He could only come to court on an ox cart every day.
Therefore, the Great Han Dynasty had always followed the old Huang's way of governing by doing nothing, giving the people time to recuperate.
Da Ming was the same!
After the cruel rule of the Mengyuan Tartars and the hegemony of the warlords at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the population and grain production of the Ming Dynasty were still at a low point, and they really needed to recuperate.
Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang had planned to finish those troublesome matters by himself and wait for Crown Prince Zhu Biao to ascend the throne before restoring the country.
He did not expect that this matter would actually be done by Fourth Brother's child.
It can be considered a great fortune!
"That's right, Mr. Fang. I wonder what else my nephew Gao Chi has done?”
Crown Prince Zhu Biao also stood up and poured a cup of tea for Fang Yun Fei.
The Crown Prince had always been generous, and after hearing what Zhu Gaochi had done, he felt that it was to his liking, so he could not help but ask a few more questions.
Fang Yunfei took a sip of tea and said slowly,"
"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that we should be close to the virtuous and alienate the villains, compensate the victims, cut off redundant officials, relax the punishment and prison, and move the people to open up wasteland. Basically, he had done everything that Emperor Renzong and Emperor Xiao could do in history.”
