The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 590: The Wise King Card expires and the Foolish King Card is activated

[Assassinating the emperor is a very serious matter no matter what, but the record of the "Renyin Palace Change" in the "History of Ming Dynasty" is very simple:
"On the 10th month of winter, the palace ladies plotted rebellion and were executed. Concubine Duan Cao and Concubine Ning Wang were executed in the market."

A line of words, without a beginning or an end, written lightly. 】

[However, the Ming Shilu records: "Palace maid Yang Jinying and others conspired for treason, waited for the emperor to fall asleep, and then hanged him with a rope..."]

[Unlike other records with causes and consequences, the historian here also went against the grain and did not write the reason why the palace maid assassinated the man, but simply recorded the process of the assassination.]

[They tried to strangle the emperor with a rope, but in a panic they tied the rope into a knot, causing the assassination attempt to fail.]

[It was not until the publication of the Wanli Yewaibian, a collection of unofficial history of the Ming Dynasty, that people knew the cause and effect of this incident, namely, the so-called collection of palace maids' menstrual blood to make elixirs, and the palace maids could not bear the humiliation and fought back desperately.]

[As for the other detailed historical materials of the Ming Dynasty, there are only a few records about the "Renyin Palace Change". ]

[Even Zhu Houcong's rescue has two versions.]

[One is the currently popular saying that a palace maid regretted her attempt to assassinate the emperor and ran to find Queen Fang, who then rushed to Cao and rescued the emperor.]

[Another theory is that according to the Records of Imperial Ming Dynasty, on the night of the Renyin Palace Incident, Lu Bing suddenly had a psychological feeling and rushed to the outside of the palace with his lieutenant, received the Queen's order, and saved the Emperor.]

【This whole thing is murky and dark.】

【But one thing is certain. 】

[During the Renyin Palace Incident, Zhu Houcong was nearly killed by a palace maid, so he moved to the Western Garden and no longer summoned ministers easily. Only a few officials such as cabinet members and ministers could see the emperor.]

【The ambitious emperor disappeared overnight. 】

……

Tang Xuanzong Period
"There must be a conspiracy..."

"How could a palace maid who is good at needlework tie the rope into a knot?"

"Sixteen palace maids sneaked into the bedroom without any guards to stop them and worked together to assassinate the emperor. The emperor was sleeping and was completely defenseless."

"You said there's nothing wrong here, but I don't believe it."

Li Longji suddenly discovered a blind spot.

"It seems that Tianmu never said anything about him taking charge of the military power?"

Li Mi thought for a moment and said decisively:

"No, ever since the emperor took office, the two sides have been entangled in the etiquette system."

"I never mentioned military power at all."

Li Longji picked up a grape and threw it into his mouth.

"The two brothers Zhengde and Jiajing are quite interesting..."

……

Great Sui.

"Does this seem like a warning?"

Yang Jian didn't believe that these dozen or so palace maids were all fearless people.

Knowing that assassinating the emperor was a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the clan, why did he still do it without hesitation?
And there was no mention of the clan’s extermination?

Just the four simple words "Punishment for treason"?
Is it just a coincidence that these dozen palace maids are all fatherless and motherless?

This hidden chess piece has been buried for a long time!
……

Song Taizong period
Zhao Kuangyi twirled his beard, seeming to be lost in thought.

Generally speaking, the number of homicide crimes is proportional to the probability of exposure.

The more people involved in a crime, the greater the chance of being exposed.

After all, there are many people with different opinions and minds.

The principal offender may be tight-lipped, but the accomplice may be a chatterbox.

The principal offender may be willing to fight to the death, but the accomplice may just want to make a quick buck and get away with it.

No matter what, judicial personnel will eventually find a loophole.

And there were sixteen people, including sixteen palace maids, who planned to murder the emperor, who had supreme majesty.

But there was no exposure at all before the action. Why was that?
The answer is obvious, the enemy is in the palace!

Zhao Kuangyi set his sights on the two concubines.

Executing the concubine in the market is obviously nonsense.

Even if I kill someone, I won't do it in public.

"It's a sleight of hand."

……

【After experiencing the Renyin Palace Coup, Zhu Houcong began to become suspicious. 】

[He said to the cabinet minister Xu Jie: "During the Renyin Incident, there were people who died unjustly and are still wreaking havoc in the palace."]

[Xu Jie said: "He was born noble and close, and was wronged for no reason. How could he not turn into a ghost?"]

[The palace was haunted, and the emperor was troubled day and night. This matter was not only known to the scholars and people in Beijing, but also heard by the Korean envoys who came to China. They were recorded as an interesting story.]

[In the Joseon Dynasty's "Records of King Jungjong" in the first month of the 1544rd year of the Jiajing reign (), it was recorded that after the Imyin Palace Coup, Zhu Houcong often "saw ghosts" and was terrified.]

[The Taoists taught him a method: Use glutinous rice crumbs to make human figures, and place them in a dark place where ghosts are often seen. Set up a pot of oil next to them and boil it.]

【Then the Taoist priest led the emperor to a dark place and suddenly said, "There is a ghost here!" 】【He grabbed the human figure and threw it into the frying oil. 】

[The Taoist priest caught the ghosts one by one and blew them up, and the emperor's illness was cured! ]

[Zhu Houcong already believed in alchemy, so he was even more superstitious about these "magic tricks"]

……

Datang.

"The disease of a lowly heart."

Li Shimin muttered quietly.

Sun Simiao once said that when a Taoist priest plays tricks on others and catches ghosts, he is actually catching the ghosts in his heart.

After catching the "ghost", I felt a little relieved.

Natural recovery of the sick body.

"It is easy to catch the devil in your heart, but it is difficult to destroy it."

"Suspicion breeds ghosts. Suspicion is not extinguished, ghosts and monsters will continue to exist."

……

Ming dynasty.

"You big XXX!"

"You xxx believe this!"

Zhu Yuanzhang’s defense was broken again!

What a childish method!

He has traveled all over the country over the years, what kind of magic has he not seen?

Can you be fooled by this trick to deceive fools?
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized.

I have really protected these descendants very well.

"Decided!"

Queen Ma's eyebrows jumped and she felt something was wrong!

"We need to write down these tricks one by one and compile them into a book!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously:

"From now on, all princes must study this book carefully! If you can't memorize it, you will not be allowed to take the throne!"

……

On the canopy.

Xiyuan.

Inside a hall that doesn't look like a hall.

The copper stove with the Bagua image hollowed out continuously emits a faint smoke.

A voice came from behind the heavy veils in the hall.

"I have practiced until my body is like a crane, and I have two boxes of scriptures under a thousand pine trees."

"I came to ask Wu Yu said, the clouds are in the blue sky and the water is in the bottle."

……

{I have trained myself to be like a crane, so I am not afraid of being strangled by palace maids!}
{As expected, all immortal cultivators are afraid of the immortal rope (dog head)}

{God's damn rope!}

……

Ming Dynasty Jiajing Period
Zhu Houcong was so angry that his face turned green.

"A bunch of ignorant youngsters!"

Is it funny?
I almost died!
……

[In October of the same year, the Datong border troops captured three traitors. Zhu Houcong believed that it was the help of ghosts and gods, so he appointed Taoist priest Tao Zhongwen as Minister of Rites and Junior Teacher, and concurrently as Junior Tutor and Junior Protector.]

【Tao Zhongwen thus became the only minister in the Ming Dynasty who held three titles.】

[As we said before, Zhu Houcong was able to outwit the civil officials because he mastered the rules of the game.]

[But at the same time, the ministers who were good at guessing the emperor's intentions also began to understand the rules of the game. ]

[In March of the 1549th year of Jiajing (), Crown Prince Zhu Zaizhen died and was posthumously named Crown Prince Zhuangjing.]

[According to convention, the prince would go out to study before the age of ten, but Zhu Houcong kept delaying this matter, which led to the ministers writing letters to the emperor.]

【Zhu Houcong was forced to agree and held the marriage ceremony. Soon after, the prince fell ill and died.】

【After that, Zhu Houcong strictly followed Tao Zhongwen's theory that the two dragons should not meet each other, and he would not meet Prince Yu and Prince Jing unless it was required by etiquette.】

……

{Why is this so similar, treat, behead, accept as a dog?}

{The emperor was in poor health and converted to Taoism. A palace maid strangled him and killed him wrongly. The Taoist priest cured the emperor's ghost disease, and then the two dragons were not allowed to meet.}
{Your conspiracy theory is a bit too ridiculous...}
{It's a bit far-fetched, but there is one thing that is true: there is great terror between life and death.}
{Zhu Houcong was obviously not a person who could see through life and death in the midst of great terror. On the contrary, he began to become a different person after the Renyin Palace Coup.}
{The story of collecting palace maids to make elixirs started after the Renyin Palace Incident, but the story was reversed to make it seem like it had already happened.}
{And judging from the results alone, the emperor stayed indoors and indulged in Taoism, so who would have the prince's teachings and advice returned to?}
{Don't forget, the Hongzhi era wasn't that long ago.}
