Chapter 20: In front of Zhu Yuanzhang, he scolded him until he was completely covered with blood! Hearing Chen Han say that Zhu Biao might have been tortured to death, Ling Han's eyes were full of disbelief.
He stood there in a daze, speechless for a long time.
Such a great person as His Highness the Crown Prince could actually be tortured to death.
This is so unfair.
He suddenly felt that the greatest injustice in the world was that good people never live long.
Jiang Wei was also filled with disbelief at this time.
Although he had heard the Prince's Palace say more than once that the Jinyiwei organization would be abolished, Jiang Yu never felt that this was wrong.
Even he himself felt that the existence of an organization like Jinyiwei was the greatest injustice to the law.
Jiang Wei only admired Zhu Biao and never had any resentment.
But when he heard that Zhu Biao was actually exhausted to death, he felt his heart hurt even more.
Only now did Zhu Yuanzhang finally realize that he really wanted to do his best to give his son the best, but sometimes what he thought was good was not necessarily what his son wanted.
Only now did he finally understand how much pressure his son had endured during this process.
So he slowly put his hands on Zhu Biao's shoulders, as if he wanted to grab Zhu Biao tightly.
It was as if he wanted to hold Zhu Biao tightly and never let go.
Definitely don't want to let go.
After a long time, Chen Han continued: "This is just the first speculation, which mainly focuses on the quarrels and political differences between father and son.
There are also some possibilities, such as the second one, which many people think is true. "
Ling Han hurriedly asked: "What is the second one?"
Zhu Yuanzhang also listened.
He now wants to hear how many speculations future generations have about the death of his eldest son. He wants to test all these speculations and eliminate them all.
Chen Han said: "The second possibility is that Zhu Biao died of exhaustion."
This statement came out, making Zhu Yuanzhang even more surprised.
How could his own son be exhausted to death? Is it...
He thought of a possibility.
This possibility is indeed the case.
This may actually be the case.
If this is really the case as Chen Han said, then his own responsibilities will be much greater.
But what I did was entirely to further concentrate the power in the emperor's hands.
Why is it said that he exhausted his eldest son to death while still alive? He is very unconvinced now.
Ling Han was also very confused and asked: "What do you mean? Is there anyone who is really exhausted to death?"
Chen Han said: "Of course, this matter starts with the Hu Weiyong case."
Ling Han said: "I know Hu Weiyong. He is a notoriously corrupt official. Does this matter have something to do with the prince dying from exhaustion?"
Chen Handao: "In addition to killing many Hu Party members, the Hu Weiyong case also happened an important thing, that is, the Prime Minister was dismissed, and Zhu Yuanzhang also made a rule that if anyone in future generations becomes Prime Minister, it will be unfilial.
Among the ministers, anyone who dares to say that he should be appointed prime minister can be beheaded without trial. "
Ling Han was also very impressed by this matter. Although they, the civil servants, had some opinions on this matter, who dared to raise objections.
Chen Han continued: "Hu Weiyong's greed for power caught his attention. In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang had long had deep resentment towards the position of prime minister. According to his logic, I conquered the world. Who dares to compete with me for power? , not even the Prime Minister can do it." Zhu Yuanzhang stood on the side and did not deny it at all. This was what he thought at the beginning.
Even now.
It is so difficult for us to conquer the world, why do you people want to take advantage of so many benefits?
All this is ours, it's all ours, and you people can't part with it at all.
That Hu Weiyong deserves to die. He thinks that after becoming prime minister, he can make the decision on everything by himself. This is against his will. Why don't we just pluck off the head of such a person? Chen Han said: "At that time, Hu Weiyong happened to be a person who didn't know how to restrain himself.
How audacious is this person?
Since Yang Xian was executed, Zhu Yuanzhang believed that Hu Weiyong was talented and favored him. For this reason, he served as the independent prime minister for many years.
Some important matters of life, death and deposing were carried out directly without reporting to Zhu Yuanzhang.
He would read the memorials from various internal and external departments first, and would withhold any that were unfavorable to him and would not submit them.
People from all walks of life who are keen on fame, as well as heroes and warriors who have lost their positions, rush to his door to bribe him with gold, silk, famous horses, and good things to play.
Of course, seeking death in this way violated Zhu Yuanzhang's taboo, and he was soon killed on charges of treason. "
Ling Han and others have experienced these things, and it can be said that they have deep feelings. It was because so many people were killed at that time that they were so shocked that no one dared to raise objections to this matter.
"Although there was a reason for Hu Weiyong's death in this case, it was more about Zhu Yuanzhang's idea of not giving away any power in order to firmly control the imperial power in his own hands.
As a result, the position of prime minister, which had been inherited in Chinese history for nearly 2000 years, was ended in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Although the power was held by him alone, pressure also arose from this.
The prime minister was supposed to help the emperor share the world's major affairs. Without the prime minister, Zhu Yuanzhang had sole power and handled all matters big and small by himself.
How diligent was Zhu Yuanzhang? According to relevant records.
In his posthumous edict, he himself said: "Thirty-year-old, be diligent and diligent every day."
According to historical records, from September 18th to 21st in the 660th year of Hongwu's reign, within eight days, Zhu Yuanzhang reviewed and approved a total of 390 memorials and notes from internal and external officials, and handled [-] state affairs.
On average, more than 200 memorials and notes are reviewed and more than 400 state affairs are handled every day.
From this aspect alone, you can imagine how diligent he is. "
Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy when he heard the records in the history books of later generations. It seems that people of later generations are not so discerning. We are such diligent people. Looking at the emperors for thousands of years, no one dares to say that they can be diligent in government. Compared with myself.
He originally thought that Chen Han would praise him for his diligence, but then he heard Chen Han change the subject.
"I guess Zhu Yuanzhang himself would be secretly happy, thinking how powerful the things he did must be, but little did he know that the things he did were really wrong and would cause endless harm.
How else could we talk about the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang? Why would he like to formulate systems so much if he didn't act well as an emperor? The key is what he formulated. He thought he was smart, but in fact he was extremely stupid.
I think I am very smart, but in fact I am pitifully stupid, completely unrealistic and do not consider the actual situation!
It’s so funny, it’s a disaster for generations of descendants after him! ! "
rumbling...
Ling Han and the others felt like several thunderbolts were struck near their ears.
It was so explosive that they didn't dare to move in front of Chen Han.
And Zhu Yuanzhang's face really fits his surname, it's the same color as pig liver...
