Short videos tell the story of ancient times, bringing tears to the eyes of all dynasties

Chapter 43 Mingbaozong: I am the only one who has been tied here in the past five hundred years

[Yu Qian lived his life with integrity.]

Although he held a high position, he was honest and upright. He had never engaged in corruption or accepted bribes for decades. Although he lived in poverty, he never thought of abusing his power for personal gain.

After Yu Qian's death, among Cao Jixiang's subordinates, there was a commander named Duo'er, who admired Yu Qian's character very much. He poured wine on the place where Yu Qian died and cried bitterly.

Cao Jixiang was angry and whipped him, but the next day, he still poured wine on the ground to express his condolences.

The governor-general Chen Feng was moved by Yu Qian's loyalty and collected his body.

A year later, Yu Qian's adopted son Yu Kang buried him in Hangzhou.

The Empress Dowager did not know about Yu Qian's death at first. After hearing about it, she sighed and mourned for several days.

After Yu Qian's death, Shi Heng's henchman Chen Ruyan replaced Yu Qian as the Minister of War.

But in less than a year, Chen Ruyan was reported for corruption and abuse of power, and the bribes he received amounted to tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Zhu Qizhen found that the situation was true, and asked with a sullen face: "Yu Qian was highly valued in the Jingtai Dynasty, and he had no extra money when he died. Why did Chen Ruyan have so much?"

Shi Heng lowered his head and could not answer.

Soon there was an alarm on the border, and Zhu Qizhen looked worried.

Wu Jin, the Marquis of Gongshun, was waiting nearby and advised: "If Yu Qian were here, he would definitely not let the enemy do this."

Zhu Qizhen was speechless.

In this year, Xu Youzhen was slandered by Shi Heng and exiled to Jinchikou.

A few years later, Shi Heng was also arrested and imprisoned, where he died.

Cao Jixiang rebelled and his entire family was exterminated.

The truth about Yu Qian's affair was finally revealed. 】

Yu Qian's life was just like his poem, open and honest, shining as brightly as the sun and the moon.

See here.

Throughout the many dynasties of China, many people had tears in their eyes.

Such a great man was killed by a tyrant. Everyone felt it was unfair for Yu Qian.

"I am not afraid of being torn to pieces, I just want to leave my innocence in this world."

In prison, Wen Tianxiang looked through the window at what was displayed on the sky curtain.

After a long while, he paid his respects to the full moon in the sky from afar.

People today cannot see the moon of the past, but the moon of today once shone on the ancients

Yu Qian respected him and took him as an example.

But at the same time, Wen Tianxiang was also proud of the existence of Yu Qian in later generations.

At this time, Zhang Hongfan came to the prison and persuaded him, saying, "The prime minister has done his best to be loyal and filial. If he can change his mind and serve the emperor as he served the Song Dynasty, he will not lose his position as prime minister."

"The country is in ruins and there is no way to save it. As a subject, I deserve death. How dare I live in disgrace?"

Wen Tianxiang looked at him and said, "Today I know that Yu Qian has not regretted his decision even though he died nine times. You should send someone to kill me."

At the same time, in another time and space, Wu Mu Yue Fei in prison had tears in his eyes.

He felt more sympathy for Yu Qian.

Because their experiences are so similar.

Since ancient times, heroes have admired each other. Although Yu Qian was a person of later generations, from Tianmu's introduction to him, Yue Fei was full of respect for Yu Shaobao of the Ming Dynasty.

……

"'Mo Xu You' killed Yue Fei, 'Yi Yu' killed Yu Qian. What a wonderful farce!"

Zhao Gou looked at the comment on the sky and his face turned red.

……

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.

"He favored treacherous ministers, ruined the country's destiny, humiliated the country, and killed loyal officials. Now we know why future generations hate Zhu Qizhen so much."

Old Zhu said angrily: "Qi Yu has made such great contributions to our Ming Dynasty, and this bastard still has the nerve to accuse Qi Yu of being unkind and unjust. In my opinion, this bastard is the most unkind and unjust!"

"He even abolished his title as emperor and refused to allow him to enter the imperial mausoleum after his death. How could he have the nerve to do this? We are all ashamed for him!"

"A tyrant! An evil creature! Even worse than Zhao Gou and his ilk!"

Old Zhu cursed at the sky.

It really pissed him off.

You are clearly despicable, but you turn around and accuse others of being unkind and unfilial. Is this a human thing to do?
Old Zhu has lived his entire life and has never seen such a shameless person!
……

"You almost destroyed our ancestors' foundation, but instead of reflecting on your own mistakes, you attempted to restore the monarchy and even killed loyal ministers like Yu Qian. Grandson, you really gave birth to a good emperor for our Ming Dynasty!"

During the Yongle period, Zhu Di kicked Zhu Zhanji in the butt again.

"Killing Yu Qian would chill the hearts of people all over the world. Who would be willing to work for our Zhu family in the future? Didn't your rebellious son think about this when he killed someone?"

……

"Quick! Release Yu Qian!"

And the person involved was Zhu Qizhen.

I'm completely panicked at this moment.

He never expected that killing Yu Qian would leave him with a bad reputation for eternity in future generations.

Zhu Qizhen realized that he had been deceived by Xu Youzhen and no longer had any intention of attacking Yu Qian.

After all, he is not stupid.

He knew that Yu Qian had made great contributions, and he did not intend to kill Yu Qian at the beginning. If Xu Youzhen had not insisted on not killing Yu Qian and his restoration would have been nameless, he would not have given the order to kill Yu Qian.

Zhu Qizhen was frightened at this moment. Fortunately, Tianmu told him the whole story, giving him a chance to save himself.

Otherwise, I will be infamous forever!
"Immediately send someone to arrest Xu Youzhen, Shi Heng, Cao Jixiang and others!"

Of course, Zhu Qizhen would not let Xu Youzhen and the other two off easily.

Especially knowing that the three men were going to do something evil and that Cao Cao was planning a rebellion, it was even more impossible for him to forgive them.

Poor Xu Youzhen and his companions finally succeeded in taking the gate.

Before they could even enjoy a few days of wealth and glory, the new master they supported was executed.

……

[In the early years of Emperor Chenghua of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chenghua Zhu Jianshen restored Yu Qian's official position and granted him sacrifices.]

[He also said in the edict: "When the country was in trouble, he defended the country from danger and insisted on justice alone, which made powerful officials and treacherous officials jealous. The late emperor knew about his injustice, and I really pity his loyalty." The edict was circulated throughout the country.]

In the second year of the Hongzhi reign, the emperor adopted the advice of Sun Xu, the Imperial Secretary, and bestowed upon Yu Qian the titles of Grand Master of Imperial Households, Pillar of State, and Grand Tutor, and gave him the posthumous title of Sumin. He also granted the emperor the right to build a shrine at his tomb, titled "Jinggong", for the local authorities to worship him during the annual festivals.

【During the Wanli reign, his posthumous title was changed to Zhongsu. Hangzhou, Henan, and Shanxi have all been worshipping and offering sacrifices to him for generations.】

[The later Ming history praised him: "His loyalty and righteousness were as fierce as the sun and the moon."]

[Yu Qian, Yue Fei and Zhang Huangyan are collectively known as the "Three Heroes of West Lake". ]

[People will never forget that it was Yu Qian who stepped forward in times of crisis, turned the tide, saved half of the Ming Dynasty, and saved the lives of countless civilians. ]

——As bright as the sun and the moon, as distinct as the movement of stars, no matter how strong the wind or waves, it remains the same!

——I am not afraid of being torn to pieces, I just want to keep my innocence in this world, rest in peace, Yu Shaobao!
——Yu Qian not only had extraordinary talents, but his moral character was also almost impeccable. There are only a few people throughout history who are both virtuous and talented!
——In my mind, among so many famous ministers of the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian should be ranked first, but unfortunately, after him, there is another person who can be called a rare genius.

——What Ming Yingzong? Ming Baozong is more like the same thing. He called himself the Son of Heaven, killed his meritorious officials, and snatched the throne from his own son. He can be said to be the worst emperor in history!
——One of Zhu Qizhen’s few contributions was that he gave birth to a good son who cleaned up the mess he left behind and extended the life of the Ming Dynasty for more than a hundred years.

——I think that Wala clown is waiting for the Ming Dynasty to send troops, so that they can know what a king's army and the wrath of thunder are. (Laughs)
——Ming Baozong: In the past five hundred years, I am the only one who has been tied up here!

——The dog emperor Zhu Qizhen will be infamous for eternity!

——From now on, there will be no more Shao Bao Yu, and Zhu Qizhen will be completely nailed to the pillar of shame, never to be able to turn over!
"A person like Yu Qian can only rank second in the Ming Dynasty?"

Throughout the dynasties, countless princes and ministers who noticed this barrage were shocked.

Just as what was said in the barrage, there are very few people like Yu Qian who are both virtuous and talented throughout history.

Throughout the dynasties, if there was a person like this, it was a blessing from the ancestors.

But there were actually two such people in the Ming Dynasty, and Yu Qian could only rank second to them?

Countless emperors were curious about this man.

……

now.

In an abandoned courtyard somewhere in the South Palace of Beijing.

The terminally ill Zhu Qiyu looked at the many comments that denounced Zhu Qizhen.

I just feel refreshed.

I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Amid the laughter, images related to Zhu Qiyu were playing on the sky screen.

[I tell you, I didn’t want the throne, it was the Heaven and Earth Ancestors, the Empress Dowager, and you, the civil and military officials, who forced me to do it! ]

[I don't even want this seat, you guys let me sit here! ]

[I know I am inferior to him in every aspect, but I am the emperor now, so I am better than him, right? ]

[But why should he? He is living happily with his wife and children, while I will be left without any descendants.]

[Oh my God! Are you really blind? ]

[My mother should have been the empress, and I should have been the emperor. If my mother had not been deposed, I would be the emperor, and the empress and the prince would not have died.]

[You stole something that belonged to me...]

[That should... should have belonged to me...]

——Zhu Qiyu should have killed his brother with a knife.

——Ten thousand times stronger than his brother!
——Only God knows whether it is fair or not.

"Ugh……

During the reign of Zhu Zhanji.

He looked helplessly at Empress Sun who was crying beside him.

He looked at Zhu Qizhen, who was two and a half years old and had not yet learned to walk.

He said with a headache: "It's not that I don't give him a chance, it's just that he is too disappointing."

"If he really becomes the emperor, I won't know how to explain to my grandfather in the underworld."

Zhu Zhanji stood up and said, "Just give the throne to Qi Yu, okay?"

After saying this, he turned around and walked out of the hall without hesitation.

He decided to bring back Zhu Qiyu, who was being raised outside the palace.

From today on, he will personally train this son.

Sometimes, even Zhu Zhanji himself couldn't help but sigh at the drama of history.

He really didn't expect that Zhu Qiyu, the second son whom he once regarded as a coward, would become so strong in the future and protect the crumbling Ming Dynasty.

This child did so much for the Ming Dynasty, but in the end he ended up with such a miserable end. After his death, he couldn't even be buried in the imperial tomb.

I owe Zhu Qiyu too much, and I can only make up for it bit by bit from now on.

As for Zhu Qizhen...

Let him be a leisurely and wealthy prince...
