"Not bad, not bad! Gao Chi, this child, was indeed worthy of being a benevolent and filial emperor!”
After listening to Zhu Gaochi's actions, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but praise him.
The emperors who could be called Emperor Renzong or Emperor Xiao did the same.
However, Zhu Gaochi was the epitome of this. Basically, he had done everything that Emperor Renzong Xiao had done. And he did it better and more thoroughly.
He could be said to be the first person in the history of Emperor Renzong Xiao!
"Mr. Fang, didn't Gao Chi do anything special?”
Seeing that Fang Yunfei was only focused on drinking tea and not saying anything, Zhu Di could not help but urge him.
After listening to such depressing words for so long, you're not going to say anything after saying so little?
This was nothing!
You're talking about an ordinary Emperor Renzong Xiao.
Gao Chi is my good son, so there must be something different about him.
Don't stop, continue praising!
"If there's anything special about Gao Chi…"
"There really is one!"
Fang Yunfei drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.
Zhu Di quickly refilled his cup and looked at Fang Yunfei with anticipation.
"After Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, the most famous and influential thing he did was to restore the reputation of those officials who were listed as traitors in the Battle of Jingnan.”Fang Yunfei said loudly as he handed out the teacup.
The Battle of Jingnan?
Jianwen traitor?
Vindicate the injustice?
Hearing these three words, Zhu Di's face immediately turned green again!
You can't get through, right?
Are you bringing up the sore spot?
Can't you change your strategy?
Zhu Biao was also nervous.
As the saying goes, every emperor has his own courtier.
An emperor like Zhu Di who rebelled against his subjects who were loyal to the court would definitely be like fire and water.
Therefore, after Jingnan succeeded, these officials would definitely be punished.
With Fourth Brother's clear personality, these officials would definitely not have a good ending.
These things were ultimately Yun Wen's fault.
Although it hadn't happened yet, Zhu Biao still felt guilty.
"Oh, how did Fourth Bro treat these people?”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked casually.
"It's nothing much. It's just exile, beheading, looting, and extermination. There's nothing strange about it."
"It's indeed nothing strange. Why don't you tell me what my grandson Gao Chi has done?”
Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of tea disapprovingly and did not care about the fate of these people.
Compared to the Crown Prince's kindness, Emperor Hongwu's personality was much more extreme.
In modern terms, Zhu Yuanzhang was a proper member of the society.
Either he didn't do it, or he did it absolutely!
Since these people had chosen to stand against Fourth Brother, they would definitely have to bear the price of Fourth Brother's success.
He wanted to oppose the Battle of Jingnan and retreat after the fourth brother ascended the throne.
How could there be so many good things in this world?
"Zhu Gaochi not only pardoned those exiled ministers, but also restored the reputation of those executed ministers. He also announced that these ministers who supported Jianwen were not rebels but loyal ministers.”
"As expected of Benevolent King! It seems that my nephew Gao Chi not only has great benevolence, but also great wisdom and courage!”
After hearing that Zhu Gaochi had vindicated all the ministers who had opposed the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Biao couldn't help but laugh.
The reason why he was so happy was not because these ministers were on Zhu Yunwen's side, but because these ministers were loyal to Ming and the court.
If Zhu Yuanzhang had passed the throne to Zhu Di instead of Zhu Yunwen, these people would also be loyal to Zhu Di.
This was because these people were loyal to the Ming Dynasty and not to any king.
Zhu Biao also admired Zhu Gaochi's courage and breadth of mind.
The biggest beneficiary of Zhu Di's success was Zhu Gaochi.
Under such circumstances, no one would expose their shortcomings.
Even if they wanted to restore their reputations, it would probably be a matter of one or two hundred years.
However, Zhu Gaochi had actually helped these people redeem themselves while he was still in power.
Even Zhu Biao was ashamed of his bearing.
Fang Yunfei poured a cup of tea to moisten his throat and continued,
"In addition, Zhu Gaochi also pardoned all the women who were banished to the Education Bureau and let them live the rest of their lives in seclusion.”
"Prince Yan, I have to say something to you about this. If you can't take it anymore, it's fine to exile these womenfolk or kill them. Why did you let them go and receive customers?"
"There are quite a few old women here. For example, Lao Da's daughter-in-law was already 57 years old, but she still had to receive customers every day. Can she do this?"
"Fourth Bro! Look at what you've done!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Zhu Di actually asked an old woman in her fifties or sixties to receive guests at the Education Department, he could not help but slap the table and reprimand!
In ancient times, being demoted to the Jiaofang Department was actually to let the female family members of the criminals become official prostitutes.
However, every dynasty would generally allow some young and beautiful female criminals to enter the Education Bureau. There was absolutely no such thing as the Yongle Dynasty that received guests collectively regardless of age difference.
Therefore, when he heard this, even Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but flare up.
Zhu Di felt extremely wronged!
I'm innocent!
Which emperor didn't just need to wave a pen to send a criminal's wife to the Jiaofang Department?
Who would check their ages one by one!
That was the work of the subordinates.
I, the emperor, must have been deceived by a villain!
