At the end of the third year of Zhengde, Zhu Shou finally issued an edict and secretly executed Miss Xiaohuan. However, he did not let Yin Ling'er go, and sent Xiaobai to the Nanjing Palace, under the supervision of the guarding eunuch.
As for Queen Xia, she was imprisoned in Renzhi Hall by Zhu Shou and was personally supervised by Ma Yongcheng, who had always been at odds with her.
The Hall of Renzhi is located on the western half of the Forbidden City, directly north of the Wuying Hall, and is commonly known as the White Tiger Hall. In the early Ming Dynasty, this was where the emperor's coffin was stored, and later it gradually evolved into the Royal Academy of Painting and Calligraphy, where the emperors could cultivate their sentiments.
Moving from Kunning Palace to Renzhi Palace, Zhu Shou's intention was very clear, that is, he would not have any contact with Queen Xia until he died.
The reason why he didn't kill Queen Xia and Yin Ling'er was not because he was soft-hearted, but because he understood a truth: the royal family's face was more important than anything else.
As Empress Dowager Zhang said, the emperor's heart must be able to accommodate a huge mountain. The most important condition for being a good emperor is that he cannot express his true self. This was not understood by Zhu Houzhao in history, so he
The process of pursuing freedom and individuality seems very different.
Zhu Shou could kill Queen Xia at any time, at any place, and for any reason, but he could not do so, because it was easy for the emperor to kill someone, but it was very difficult to silence the people of the world.
Seeing her son's handling of the matter, Queen Mother Zhang smiled happily and said, "Zhao'er, you have grown up."
Zhu Shou asked: "How to guard against the people's mouth?"
Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head: "Defending the mouths of the people is better than guarding the rivers. In ancient times, Gun controlled the floods and blocked them, causing great chaos in the world. Gun was executed for this. Yu inherited his father's will and neglected it, and the world was under great rule. He was called a saint.
, creating a centuries-old foundation for Daxia."
Zhu Shou said with a smile: "No wonder the wise minister Wei Zheng once said that the king is like a boat and the people are like water. Water can carry the boat or capsize it."
After hearing this, Queen Mother Zhang glared at her son and said angrily: "That's nonsense!"
Zhu Shou said in astonishment: "Where did I go wrong?"
Empress Dowager Zhang sighed: "Wei Zheng, a man who seeks fame and reputation, complements Taizong, and each takes what he needs. The importance of this statement does not lie in the people, but in the king. The people are like water, and the king walks among the people like a boat on the water.
Also, do you know the original meaning of this statement?"
Zhu Shou's ancient prose was given back to the physical education teacher. Although Zhu Houzhao's ancient prose foundation is very good, it cannot answer such a profound question, so I can't talk about it.
He didn't know that every time Wei Zheng wrote a letter of remonstrance, he would keep a copy at home and show it to the historian Chu Suiliang. It was obvious that Wei Zheng wanted to gain a good reputation. Moreover, Wei Zheng had formed a party with Hou Jun and Du Zhenglun, and only after his death
It was discovered by Taizong, so the later historian Chen Yinke once wrote: "Fortunately, the incident was discovered after Zheng was dead, otherwise he would have been killed together with Zhang Liang and Hou Junji. The cessation of marriage and the servant monument are still a small punishment."
Although Chen Yinke was indifferent to the two scholars, his diagnosis was still very appropriate.
Zhu Shou didn't know this, but it didn't mean that Empress Dowager Zhang didn't know it. She just heard her say slowly: "The original meaning of this sentence comes from "Book of the Later Han Dynasty". A husband is a boat, and a man is water. Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it.
.You can know that you are thinking of danger by this. Wei Zheng usurped him as the king and the people, and used it to wake up Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and let him control public opinion. The emperor is the emperor, and the ignorant people, how can they control the emperor?"
Zhu Shou said in surprise: "What mother means is..."
Empress Dowager Zhang said in a deep voice: "Since you haven't understood what the fourth level you have to pass is yet, I can't say more. I'll just wait until you understand it later."
At the beginning of the year, she once taught Zhu Shou that there are four hurdles to pass to become an emperor. The first hurdle is balance, the second hurdle is the unkindness of heaven and earth, and the third hurdle is strength. As for the fourth hurdle, she did not tell him
Zhu Shou and others naturally did not dare to tell the emperor.
Zhu Shou did not understand his mother's political thinking, but he had seen a lot of manipulation of public opinion in later generations...
A few days later, there was a free newspaper "Jingshi News" in the capital. The newspaper was run by the famous Cheng Guogong Zhu Fu. Most of the information published on it was political news from the court.
Part of it is a report on the border war. However, the top page has been occupied by Zhu Shou for a long time, and is used to publish his pitiful "Quotations of the Holy Emperor". In short, it is a bunch of nonsense repeated over and over again.
A lie repeated ten thousand times becomes the truth. This classic argument of later generations of communication studies was studied and used to the extreme by Zhu Shouhuo in the days to come.
Who is Duke Cheng Guo? Who dares not to accept the newspapers he distributes?
Then a strange scene appeared in the capital: Pedestrians all over the street respectfully took a copy of the Di newspaper from the hands of the soldiers guarding the city at the nine gates, and then took it home and placed it on the incense table, and the whole family read it together.
The newspapers were changed on Monday, and the newspapers were piled next to the ancestral tablets to enjoy the fireworks together.
There was no way, the first article was the emperor's words, that was the imperial edict. I didn't want the royal guards to find an excuse to break into the house, so I kept it obediently.
If you look carefully, this is the most original collection, shelf and subscription. Such a domineering book writing style will really make the great gods of later generations jealous.
A few days later, when the New Year was approaching, the good news that Sister Li Feng had not told Zhu Shou was finally confirmed by countless doctors at the imperial hospital: Concubine Li Ning was pregnant!
This means that little boy Zhu Zaiji, who has just turned one month old, may have a fatal best friend in his life.
Countless eldest sons of emperors with tragic fates in history, such as Yang Yong, Li Chengqian, etc., all cried bitterly: It is better to run well than to run early.
Zhu Shou, who already had a son in hand and a 50% son as a reserve army, began to plan how to escape from the Forbidden City with his eager mind.
Last time he escaped to the bank of the Yellow River, but Zhang Kuan blocked him back. He kicked Zhang Kuan to Qingyang Mansion, where he became a neighbor to the ambitious Zhu Chixiu.
There are natural dangers in the south, the sea in the east, and the Great Wall in the north, so this time he planned to flee west to the place called Datong. The people who conspired with him were not Concubine Li Ning, a local girl from Datong, but four eunuchs.
The first one is, of course, Liu Jin and Liu Lao. This is the second male lead who cannot be defeated. Without Liu Lao, Zhu Shou would be unable to move forward. He is not familiar with history, so naturally he does not know why Zhu Houzhao in the official history abandoned Liu Jin.
Although this old dog is often disobedient, it is very useful and is many times stronger than other tigers, cubs and so on.
The second one is Chen Jing. Admiral Chen has vaguely the appearance of the third person in the palace. His current reputation is second only to Lao Liu and Zhang Yong. Even a veteran like Ma Yongcheng has to call him Chen when meeting him.
Brother, without Chen Jing, even if Zhu Shou went out, he would still feel that he had no direction. After all, a little Dingdang like Boss Liu would definitely not follow him.
The third one is Zhang Yong. He is very familiar with Datong. He has many experiences in supervising the army and has countless elite soldiers and generals. With him, he will be safe along the way.
The fourth one is Su Jin. Although this kid often doesn’t know where the sky is from the sky, he is a very loyal and evil dog. Holding it in his hand makes Zhu Shou feel like an ancient playboy. It is really a must-have for home travel, and for cutting people in the face.
Excellent product.
In the Zhengde Dynasty, there was basically nothing that these four people could not accomplish.
Therefore, when Zhu Shou greeted Empress Dowager Zhang one day, he implicitly expressed his desire to go to the west of the capital to get some fresh air. Empress Dowager Zhang was teasing Zhu Zaiji's child at the time, and adopted a tacit attitude toward her son's blatant attempt to escape.
So early the next morning, Prime Minister Jiao issued an impeachment memorial, forcing the Governor-General and Deputy Censor of Water Transportation, Shao Bao, to become an official. Shao Bao was a veteran of the civil service group, a native of Wuxi, the founder of Shangde Academy, and the founder of Bailudong Academy.
Those who revive have countless disciples all over the world...
Lao Jiao's behavior immediately aroused the indignation of the civil servants, and memorials to impeach eunuch party officials were handed over one after another.
It stands to reason that Liu Jin should come forward at this time to discuss the conditions with Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe and others, so that everyone can sit down and work together to divide the newly added benefits of various places.
However, Lao Liu did not give up. The memorials to impeach Ping Jiangbo Chen Xiong, the commander-in-chief of water transportation, and the memorials to impeach the new prince of the country, Wang Hongru, were successively fabricated by the eunuchs.
The civil servants were extremely angry: How many days has it been peaceful now? Old Liu, you have started practicing stalls again. Do you really think that everyone has passed the New Year?
Just when the eunuchs and civil servants were fighting each other, news came from Baoding: The emperor ran away again!
Master Yang immediately entered the palace and knelt at the gate of Cining Palace for an entire hour. He did not ask for any more advice, so he had to go back in dismay. He brought a few followers with him and followed Zhu Shou's footsteps slowly and very smoothly.
Ass awareness.
Li Dongyang was furious: You said that you are an emperor, sitting in the palace, playing with women when you have nothing to do, and then killing people for fun, isn't it very interesting? You have to run around, making everyone nervous.
So he said to Liu Jin: OK, isn't it just a water transport? If you eunuchs want it, I will give it to you, but there are two people, you have to let them return to Beijing.
Liu Jin asked: Who is it?
Li Dongyang said slowly: "Yang Yingning, Wang Bo'an!"
Yang Yingning is Yang Yiqing. He has appeared many times in the previous article. Wang Boan is Wang Shouren, the only sage of the Ming Dynasty. He was occasionally mentioned in the previous article, but this is his first official appearance in this book.
Liu Jin thought for a while and replied: Yang Yiqing and Wang Shouren can return to the Central Plains if they want, but there is no way to enter Beijing!
Boss Liu's political acumen is not fake. Yang Yiqing is a genius who can leverage the entire Ming Dynasty by giving him a lever; and Wang Shouren has just become a saint in Longchang. Let these two people return to Beijing, Lao
Liu probably really didn't want to live anymore.
Unexpectedly, this was what Li Dongyang was waiting for. The nickname "Viper" was not for nothing. Old Liu Qian never expected that Wang Shouren would have sneaked back from the broken ravines of Guizhou back to the colorful world of the Central Plains.
History had long been messed up by Zhu Shou. Sage Wang, who originally had to stay in Guizhou for a year and a half, escaped early after attaining enlightenment in time.
There are thousands of paths to becoming a saint, including those who kill their wives to attain enlightenment, and others who push their sisters to attain enlightenment. The path Yangming chose is definitely one that is more difficult than the Shu path: attaining enlightenment through learning from the heart.
If you want to understand this thing clearly, it will take at least hundreds of thousands of words, which is still at the level of a philosopher. If you were an undergraduate student studying philosophy, I guarantee that he would be able to say "Xinxue" in one sentence: The truth is in the heart.
Look, many children are good at summarizing. The inner learning that sages like Wang Shouren took decades to understand has been condensed in one sentence.
Therefore, I will not discuss the study of mind here to avoid turning this article into an academic paper.
In short, when Zhu Shou escaped from the capital again, Wang Shengxian, who had already attained enlightenment, went in the opposite direction to greet the emperor. Yang Yiqing, on the other hand, was obediently guarding the bank of the Yellow River in Yansui Town, preparing to imitate Zhang Kuan.
, intercept Zhu Shou.
These two people, with different positions and mentality, were ready to change the historical course of the Ming Dynasty.
