Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

The civil and military officials of the Zhenguan period in Ganlu Hall were a bit busy.

Sun Simiao was recording the harm of alcohol, and Fang Du was discussing whether drinking alcohol could really bring inspiration.

Changsun Wuji was listening carefully to the communication between the Yan brothers on the characteristics of the portrait techniques of the Mongolian princes.

Wei Zheng walked behind Chu Suiliang and carefully looked at the records that had been copied.

Empress Changsun gently scratched the chin of the cat named Yanchan in her arms, causing the cat to snore softly, and all the ministers could hear it clearly.

Yes, although everyone had something to do, they were all quite quiet, and their attention was vaguely focused on the father and son in the center of the hall. Changsun Wuji even saw that Yan Liben did not lower his head at all, and his right hand moved on the paper, and he outlined the outline of what he saw in a few strokes.

Well, it really lived up to the name of Danqing deification.

"Chenggan, what do you think of the prince of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Shimin, who stood with his hands behind his back, had a strong aura. Li Chenggan subconsciously followed his father's words, but this question was too broad, so he hesitated and said:

"As a prince, you should consolidate the foundation of the country, be upright in the country, think about the difficulty of the imperial cause, understand people's broad principles, and have affection and righteousness..."

"Has Chenggan done what he is doing now?"

Faced with his father's question, Li Chenggan almost did not hesitate and said loudly:

"Your son will take this as an encouragement!"

Li Shimin nodded with relief:

"What else do you doubt?"

"As for the things that bother you, later history records..."

At this point, Li Shimin's face showed a sincere sadness:

"The queen died in the tenth year of Zhenguan..."

So like a young swallow flying into the forest, Li Chenggan threw himself into his mother's arms, causing the royal cat to hide on the ground in a hurry and meowed twice in dissatisfaction.

Empress Changsun comforted her eldest son softly while glaring at her husband with dissatisfaction. Her husband responded with a helpless expression:

I thought we had talked about the Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, but who would have thought that we would come back at this moment?

But Li Shimin thought that he should come up with a complete explanation. After all, the light curtain is here, and Cheng Gan will know the truth sooner or later.

But...since the Han and Tang dynasties were all talked about because of wine, then the Song Dynasty...

[The Song Dynasty was even worse, especially the indissoluble bond between Zhao Kuangyin and wine was no big secret.

After all, it is well known that the Chenqiao mutiny was the pure Zhao Kuangyin who was forced to wear a yellow robe after being drunk and was forced to become the emperor.

And there are many records of Zhao Da drinking in the history books, and he once praised "wine, the beauty of heaven".

As for the eternal mystery Candle Shadow Axe Sound, because there are records of drinking beforehand, some people also speculate that Zhao Da also died of drinking, and Zhao Er just attacked the throne a little unkindly, and did not attack his eldest brother.

However, sudden death caused by excessive drinking often has various signs, such as cerebral hemorrhage caused by drunkenness will lead to crooked mouth and eyes, vomiting and suffocation caused by drunkenness will leave filth, etc., none of these are recorded in history books.

The claim of poisoning is only because Qian Chu and Li Yu died too strangely during the reign of Zhao Er, but there is no evidence.

Therefore, the candlelight and axe sound are destined to be passed down as an unsolved mystery.

After all, the Yongchang Mausoleum has suffered organized large-scale theft, and Zhao Da's body is destined to be difficult to find and identify. 】

So a satisfied smile appeared on Li Shimin's face in Ganlu Hall.

And in Guangzheng Hall, Bianliang, Northern Song Dynasty, everyone's expression was somewhat unacceptable.

"I died strangely?"

This was Qian Chu, who had previously believed that the destiny had returned to the Song Dynasty because of the appearance of the light curtain, and was therefore complacent and regretful.

"What crime have I committed? Why must I die with Qian Wende?"

Li Yu cried out in pain because he had not won the argument with Qian Chu over the war in Southern Tang.

"My uncle will inherit the throne, but what about me?"

Zhao Dezhao asked himself in confusion as dozens of possible scenarios flashed through his mind.

"My body...is not there?"

After questioning or asking himself, the palace was boiling like boiling water in an instant.

"Hahaha, the Emperor Zhao replaced Zhou, and the King of Jin replaced the Emperor Zhao, wonderful, wonderful!"

"This means that the King of Jin harmed the Emperor, and then harmed us?"

"What a crime! The Emperor only deprived him of his title and demoted him to a temple, which can be called God's grace!"

"What God's grace, what's the point of keeping such a traitor!"

"If the ruler of our country cannot tolerate the King of Jin, then I'm afraid the crown prince..."

Liu Han carefully copied the dangers of drinking and possible signs of death in the notebook he had prepared before, but when he looked up again, he saw the chaos of Guangzheng Hall.

The Emperor was in a trance, Qian Chu and Li Yu quarreled with each other, and Qian Chu was still asking the Emperor to kill the King of Jin, and Li Yu was also crying out that he was already a man of a fallen country, why did he kill him again, and His Highness Zhao Dezhao was still asking the Emperor where he was at a loss...

And the King of Jin... Where is the King of Jin?

The place where Master Kong Jiong was originally located was no longer inhabited. When he looked up again, he saw Zhao Guangyi who was retreating continuously towards the palace.

Before Liu Han could wrap his head around it, he heard the prime minister Zhao Pu beside him calling out:

"Where is the King of Jin going?"

This was definitely intentional. Although Liu Han was a medical officer of the Imperial Academy, he was not ignorant of the way of being an official. At least according to the certificate of ordination written by the emperor himself, the two titles of King of Jin and Master had completely different meanings, and Zhao Gong had never made a mistake in using such titles.

And now he was calling him King of Jin...

Master Kong Jiong looked back at the palace gate which was still ten steps away from him, and a look of "My life is over" appeared on his face when he turned around.

[Ogedei's case is a little simpler. One reason is that this guy likes to drink too much. The records left behind are that he drank and slept for days and nights. Young guys can't stand this.

Another reason is that the Mongol expedition to the west promoted the exchange of winemaking technology. The wine that the Khan of the Mongol Khanate could drink was of various types and higher in alcohol content, and the risk of alcoholism was greater, so it was not surprising that he died of drinking.

In addition, after Ogedei, there were quite a lot of records of Yuan Dynasty emperors drinking alcohol. Zhu may have taken this as a lesson and managed it.

The output of imperial wine in the Ming Dynasty court was not small, but most of it was used as a reward. There were very few records of the emperor himself being drunk.

The more famous record is Bai Zong. In the eighth year of Wanli, he traveled at night with a sword. He was drunk and immoral, cut the eunuchs' hair and almost beat two eunuchs to death.

As a result, his biological mother, Empress Dowager Li, was furious. She said that she would invite court officials to visit the Taimiao to depose the immoral Bai Zong. In the end, Bai Zong knelt outside his biological mother's palace and apologized for his crime, and it was finally calmed down.

But if I'm not allowed to drink, can't I just make elixirs?

There are several emperors in the Ming Dynasty who had problems from taking elixirs, such as Lingji Palace Fu Yao, Hong Wan, and Xian Fang Ling Lu Yin.

But this is a long story. Anyway, everyone should remember that if you can avoid drinking alcohol, try not to drink it. Even if you have to drink it, remember to drink it in moderation. 】
