Zhu Biao asked: "Emperor Jiajing's generation is Hou, so he should be the great-grandson of Qi Yu or Qi Zhen, but how can he be the twelfth emperor? Shouldn't he be the tenth?"

Li Zhongfu said: "After the coup, Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne again, and the reign was Tianshun, making him the eighth emperor. After him, there were Chenghua Emperor Zhu Jianshen, Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youtang, and Ming Wuzong Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao died young and had no offspring, so his cousin Zhu Houcong was made emperor."

Zhu Zhanji asked: "Isn't that similar to the situation of Emperor Hui of Han and Emperor Wen of Han?"

"Yes, there were also a group of ministers in the court who tried to control the young emperor, but Emperor Jiajing was very politically savvy. He relied on the Great Ceremony Controversy to deal with the ministers and the empress dowager, and gradually took back the power of the emperor.利。

The so-called Great Ceremony Debate was similar to the Pu Debate of the Song Dynasty. In short, the ministers headed by Yang Tinghe and the empress dowager in the harem hoped that Zhu Houcong would be heir to the lineage of Zhu Youtang, while Zhu Houcong believed that he did not inherit the throne from his uncle Zhu Youtang, so he still had to be the son of King Xian.

The follow-up of the Great Ceremony Debate was that in order to make his position more stable and become the most respected ancestor of future generations, Zhu Houcong wanted to use "Shi" as his temple name, but he didn't want to be too ugly, so he pulled Emperor Taizong, who was also a minor clan entering the major clan, as a target and changed Taizong to Chengzu.

Zhu Houcong also wanted to put his father's tablet in the Taimiao, but the Taimiao had limited space, so he moved the tablet of Renzong Zhu Gaochi out. "Li Zhongfu continued to tell the story.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Di was so angry that he paced back and forth.

Even the good-tempered Zhu Gaochi couldn't sit still: "Good boy, he wants his father to enter the Taimiao, so he moved my ancestor's tablet out. Is there anyone who does things this way?

Fortunately, he is still a descendant of Taizong. If he is a descendant of a certain uncle, I'm afraid that he would have to posthumously confer the title of emperor on his ancestors for several generations.

Then there will be even less positions. Except for Taizu's tablet, other tablets will have to be taken out for firewood, right?"

Hearing his son say this, Zhu Di felt much better instantly.

Everything is afraid of comparison!

"Okay, okay, sit down quickly. I'll find a chance to beat him up and vent my anger. Take care of your body." Zhu Di pushed his son to sit down, looking like a good old man.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others also persuaded him.

Zhu Dapang gradually calmed down.

Li Zhongfu knew that what they wanted to hear more was the political measures of Emperor Jiajing: "At the beginning, Emperor Zhu Houcong did a good job. He returned a lot of occupied land and dismissed a number of soldiers, schools, craftsmen, and servants. This was known as the Jiajing New Deal.

But perhaps because he suddenly received a throne from heaven, he felt that he was lucky and became a little superstitious. Not long after the Jiajing New Deal was implemented, he began to favor Taoism, gave himself various Dharma names, built Taoist temples, and greatly wasted the people's money.

In the 21st year of Jiajing, he was almost killed by several palace maids. He suspected that it was instigated by the ministers. He became suspicious and no longer went to court or lived in the bedroom in the Forbidden City. The government was controlled by Yan Song and his party.

In addition, perhaps because he was getting older and older, or because he had been the emperor for too long and there was no challenge, he became more and more superstitious about practicing Taoism, longevity, elixirs, etc., which not only consumed national strength, but also made the official atmosphere messy.

But he himself was quite able to survive. He was one of the more than ten emperors in the Ming Dynasty. Few emperors lived past 60, so many netizens suspected that he knew that elixirs should not be taken randomly, so he gave them to ministers when he was not sure, and only took them himself when they were effective.

Although he did not manage the government affairs much, he was very good at balancing. Whether it was eunuchs, Yan Song and others, or clean officials who did practical things, they were all controlled by him. Even at the moment of death, he was still the sky of the Ming Dynasty, and no one dared to question any of his decisions. "

Zhu Biao concluded: "What a genius emperor who did not do his job properly."

"I was born a monk, but among my descendants, there was an emperor who was determined to be a Taoist priest. It's really ironic. Don't let Zhu Houcong, this kid, be caught by me, otherwise I will have to beat him to death.

In addition to practicing Taoism, he can play the ministers around with a few tricks. If he concentrates on government affairs, he may become a revival leader like Han Guangwu. It really makes me angry!" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.

"Speaking of this, I think I saved a book called "The Ming Dynasty 1566" in the computer I gave you, Lao Zhu. It tells the story of the Jiajing Dynasty. Haven't you read it?" Li Zhongfu asked.

Zhu Yuanzhang regretted it so much that his intestines turned green: "I didn't pay attention to it at all. I was busy reading Journey to the West, Water Margin and Romance of the Three Kingdoms."

"Then you can read it later. Anyway, you won't see Emperor Jiajing for a while.

I estimate that more and more people from different time and space will come to the clinic in the future, but they may not all be emperors or princes., after all, the number of ordinary people is larger.

Unless it is a situation like Liu Shitou, even if there is a time-travel gate in every time and space of the Ming Dynasty, what you can do is limited.

After all, ordinary people have no access to the powerful, and most of them don’t even know who the head of their township is. "

Zhu Zhanji took out his mobile phone: "The Ming Dynasty 1566, right? I will download one too, and take a good look at it later. When the time comes, I will find Jiajing, the little bastard, to settle the score and beat him up with reason."

Zhu Gaochi saw this and regretted not bringing the tablet with him.

Just when the Zhu family gathered together to discuss how to save the Ming Dynasty in the 31st year of Jiajing's time and space, Li Er came over.

"What's wrong with you? You all look unhappy." Li Er asked puzzled.

"Old Li, you come here quite frequently. Have you talked to your prince? "Zhu Yuanzhang asked back.

"No, I can't change my mindset for a while, and I'm afraid of scaring the prince, but I have ordered Wei Wang Li Tai to go to other places to govern the prefectures and counties. Without him watching covetously, I believe Cheng Qian will be under much less pressure."

"That's fine, what about papermaking?"

"I've asked my trusted ministers to do it."

Li Er turned to Li Zhongfu and said, "Doctor Li, I still have the same question. Since Cheng Qian didn't become the prince, who is the prince? How did he do afterwards?"

"Are you ready?" Li Zhongfu asked back.

"Well, just tell me."

"The truth is explosive."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid."

"Okay, then I'll make it short. After your death in history, the one who succeeded was the prince Li Zhi, known as Emperor Gaozong of Tang."

"Chi Nu? ”

“His ability is not much worse than yours. During his reign, he fought wars in the south and the north, successively destroyed the Western Turks, Goguryeo and Baekje, and once pushed the territory of the Tang Dynasty to its peak.

He also suppressed the aristocratic families to the greatest extent and cultivated a group of capable generals for the Tang Dynasty. However, due to the rise of Tubo, the Tang Dynasty successively lost Tuyuhun, the Four Towns of Anxi and other places, and its influence in the Western Regions was greatly reduced.

Because of poor health, he was unable to handle all government affairs in his later years and had to hand over power to Empress Wu Zetian, so that Wu Zetian's power was almost equal to that of the emperor.

Before his death, Li Zhi probably felt that even if Wu Zetian was ambitious, she could only achieve the level of the Han Dynasty's Lü family or the Song Dynasty's Liu family. After all, she and Li Zhi had children who grew up.

Unexpectedly, when she was old, Wu Zetian was still ambitious, and even went a step further, directly changing the country's name to Da Zhou, proclaiming herself emperor, and becoming the only female emperor in history.

After that, she fabricated many charges against you, the Li Tang clan, and directly or indirectly killed many of the Li Tang descendants. Even the children and descendants she and Li Zhi had were tortured by her. "

Li Er: ...

Personally trained a female emperor, and directly turned the Tang Dynasty into the Zhou Dynasty, is it okay?

"This wicked child! I shouldn't have given birth to him in the first place!" After a short silence, Li Er exploded directly. He couldn't sit still, so he stood up and paced back and forth.

It was very similar to Zhu Di not long ago.
