History of Yongwu

Sima Rui, Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne as a young man, and he was once a strong and powerful ruler of the world. Thirty years ago, Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty, who was less than 30 years old, once led his army to defeat the army of King Liang. Emperor Wu even led his army to capture Shanguan and occupied it for several years. It was not until the death of King Liang that Shanguan was recaptured by the court.

Sima Rui was once considered to be on par with King Liang, but the endings of the two were quite different. King Liang was dazzling to the extreme and then disappeared suddenly, while Emperor Ming Wu was gradually satisfied with his martial arts and martial arts, and was obsessed with power and beauties in the harem.

There are so many beauties in the Mingyue Palace, even if you see ten people a day, it will take you a year to see them all. It is really three thousand beauties, so there are so many princes and princesses in Sima's generation, so many that Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty can't even count them.

His Royal Highness King Jin looked at the white-haired Emperor Ming Wu in front of him, and admired the energy of this old guy. The three generations of the Qin family combined did not have as many people as the Sima royal family.

"The King of Jin said that Yunan Jiangbei, the land of Yanning and the three counties west of Ningjiang, Mingyue is willing to dedicate it to the Jin Kingdom, and the right is the sincerity of the two countries' repair," Ming Wudi said humbly with a smile.

When he came back to his senses, Qin Yu heard his words, smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are wrong. The two countries are not repairing each other, but Mingyue surrendered to Dayong."

"Yes, yes." Emperor Wu of Ming Dynasty nodded hurriedly, and replied, "I was wrong."

"Your Majesty can still call himself emperor in Mingyue, but it is said that His Majesty must be a minister. In addition, Mingyue must send people to the capital to pay tribute every year. Every three years, His Majesty will personally go to the capital to meet His Majesty. Mingyue 23 County, in addition to arresting thieves and bandits The garrison is not allowed to garrison. Mingyue City is protected by the Jin army. Except for the government officials, no Mingyue army is allowed. This king will be in peace, supervise the affairs of Mingyue, and have the right to intervene in all matters of the prime minister's mansion."

Emperor Ming Wu's submissiveness made him too lazy to say everything in one breath.

"This..." Emperor Mingwu hesitated rarely, his white eyebrows trembled, and he nodded after a long time, "Everyone obeys King Jin's orders"

Qin Yu held his chin, with a calm expression, continued to look at him and said, "I have one more thing to do? I hope His Majesty can grow up beautifully."

"King Jin please speak"

"Cheng Wang Sima Shaojun"

As soon as King Jin's words came out, Emperor Ming Wu looked up at him, his eyes flashed, as if he had expected it, but also seemed proud.

"This king hopes that His Majesty will make King Cheng the crown prince and marry Zhang's daughter to King Cheng."

"What?" Emperor Ming Wu was surprised.

Qin Yu had seen his previous expression a long time ago, felt disgusted in his heart, frowned and said in a cold voice, "Your Majesty didn't hear clearly?"

"King Cheng has always been benevolent, filial, and alert, and I have long wanted to make him the crown prince," Ming Wudi said hastily.

"The capital is majestic. This king has always wanted to invite Prince Mingyue to play. I wonder if it is possible?"

"I don't know which prince His Royal Highness Jin would like to invite?" Emperor Ming Wu asked, not as sure of the answer as before.

Qin Yu looked at him and smiled, leaned slightly closer and said "everything"

All...Emperor Ming Wu looked at King Jin with hale and hearty eyes for a moment, but it soon dissipated, becoming more depressed, and nodded weakly.

"Thank you King Jin for your love, I am naturally willing"

"Thank you, Your Majesty" Qin Yu stood up, straightened his sleeves, and said to him, "Your Majesty, rest well, and Xiao Wang will take his leave." After speaking, he strode out, and Li Han immediately stepped forward at the door, following behind.

"Protect this old guy well, no one is allowed in the palace without my king's order"

"Yes"

Jin Wang Xingyuan

Qin Yu looked at Zhao Zhiping who was still standing in the study, and shook his head, "Sir, you haven't given up yet."

"My humble minister makes the last fight." Zhao Zhi saluted in parallel.

"Mr." Qin Yu sat down and called him to come and sit down too, "Didn't I tell you that King Cheng is deceitful and deceived this king several times, intending to kill him. How could this king marry such a person as his concubine? Isn't life in danger every day?"

"My lord doesn't know about Empress Xuanren?" Zhao Zhiping seemed a little anxious, "The Jin Palace is huge, where can't a concubine be imprisoned, why should my lord worry?"

Set up another place and confine her to become a king. Can this titular princess really threaten the king of Jin?

Mr. Zhao is really... Qin Yu secretly slandered, and continued to say to him, "Zhiping, the queen mother and Wenhou are impatient. The Jianping military system has been implemented to this day, and it can no longer be underestimated. Don't wait for them to grow stronger, and then deal with the king?" , the king's urgency is still in the court, as for Mingyue..."

He bought a cup of tea for Mr. Zhao, pushed it in front of him and said, "It has become a thing in the palm of my hand. After the purge, the weak Mingyue will be in the hands of the king in an instant."

"Afraid of change"

"Sir, Prince Mingyue was brought back to the capital by this king. Mingyue and An Ziqi are guarding him, and he is slowly gathering the eight great families. What a change!"

That being said... Zhao Zhiping was a little relieved when he heard that all the princes had been taken away.

His original intention was to force Ming Wudi to abdicate, and then completely pull out the eight great families of Mingyue, use the strength of the Jin army to forcefully push the state affairs in Mingyue, and then return to the court with this momentum to force the young emperor to abdicate.

But what King Jin meant was to purge the court and implement state affairs first, so as not to cause chaos by King Zhao, the Queen Mother and others, and then destroy the bright moon.The two seem to be just the first and the last, but they are quite different in reality. The former, King Jin has the honor of Emperor Mingyue, but now he is still the minister of the Young Emperor.

With a long sigh, Zhao Zhiping suddenly fell to his knees, and said solemnly with his head on the ground, "The prince said that day that he would save the common people with his ministers, but do you still remember?"

"Sir" Qin Yu helped him up, saluted solemnly and said, "This king will not forget for a moment"

"My minister understands, I would like to obey the prince's edict"

"Hehe...then trouble you to arrange the rest of the affairs well." Qin Yu patted him on the shoulder, Zhao Zhiping said yes politely, and left.

In the flower hall, Sima Shaojun waited with his head half down. Although the room was warm, he still wore a thick cloak and did not take it off.

"His Royal Highness Cheng Wang" Qin Yu walked in from one side, sat on a chair and said to him, "Is your health better these days?"

"It's all right," Sima Shaojun replied.

"That's very good. This king has a happy event for you. King Cheng must have heard about it."

Sima Shaojun gritted his teeth, paused, and said "yes" in a steady voice.

"Three days later, His Highness will hold the canonization ceremony and marry Mrs. Zhang at the same time. It can be described as double happiness. My king congratulates you first." Qin Yu looked at him and said.

"Is that so...a bit hasty?" Sima Shaojun finally couldn't help but say.

"Don't rush." ​​Qin Yu looked at him with deep meaning, and said leisurely, "The New Year is approaching, and this king misses his homeland, so... don't rush"

King Jin stood up and walked out slowly. Sima Shaojun saluted, then slowly turned around and pushed open the door. A gust of cold wind made him tremble all over.

Three days later, King Cheng was canonized as the prince. Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty brought the golden crown to Sima Shaojun's head with trembling arms, and everyone bowed down.

Qin Yu sat aside, looked at the people kneeling down on the steps, and at the old and dizzy Emperor Ming Wu.

Sima Shaojun was born at the wrong time and should not have been born in the bright moon. This territory has been corrupted to the end, and it is difficult for him alone to turn the tide.

"It's a pity you can't see that you have long been reduced to a sacrifice in this territory, even though you are very suitable for that golden dragon and python robe." Qin Yu muttered, and everyone, including Emperor Mingwu, looked at him in unison. .

"Congratulations, Your Highness the Crown Prince." After King Jin finished speaking, all the people below came back to their senses, and followed them and said loudly, "Congratulations, Your Royal Highness, the Crown Prince."

Sima Shaojun looked down at the python robe on his body, and when he looked up again, King Jin had already turned and left.

In December of the third year of Jianping, Mingyue proclaimed himself a minister to Dayong, and consecrated the three counties of Yunan and Jiangbei to King Jin, and the Mingyue Army disbanded and dispersed.In the same month, Sima Shaojun, king of Cheng, was established as Prince Mingyue and married the daughter of Prime Minister Zhang Fu.

The former Chengwang Mansion is now the Prince's Mansion. The front of the vermilion gate is full of traffic. It has changed from the deserted appearance before. The courtyard is covered with red and colorful lights.

The Zhang family is the largest of the eight Mingyue families. Most of the daughters of the Zhang family enter the palace as noble concubines or empresses, with a high status. Sima Shaojun was established as the crown prince, and it is customary to marry the Zhang family.

The king of Jin made all of this single-handedly, and the courtiers of Mingyue, who are good at speculating, thought that maybe the puppet that the king of Jin wanted was not the aged Ming Wu Emperor, but King Cheng.The marriage between the Zhang family and King Cheng was King Jin's gesture of favor to the Eight Great Aristocratic Families, and King Jin still protected their detached status and interests.

At the top of the wedding banquet, only King Jin and Sima Shaojun sat together, and everyone in the lower ranks talked with each other in a gentle manner. From time to time, someone would stand up, say a few words in a dignified manner, and then raise their glasses to congratulate.

Qin Yu leaned back on the chair, looking a little tired, glanced at Sima Shaojun in a bright red wedding dress, with the light of the candle, his cheeks were also dyed red.

His eyes flickered as he looked at it, thinking of Lord Mu Xiaohou many years ago, and his dream when he was young.

When... the bronze wine barter was put down heavily, Qin Yu was shocked by the sound and realized that Sima Shaojun's blush was not from it.

"Drinking so much, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already drunk before entering the bridal chamber," Qin Yu persuaded.

Bridal chamber... huh!Sima Shaojun turned his head to look at him, maybe he was drunk, his eyes were no longer elegant and decent, and he lost his usual restraint.

"You said you would let Mingyue go"

"Did the king not let it go?"

"But" Sima Shaojun looked at the people in front of him, pointed at his bright red clothes and said, "This is not letting go."

Qin Yu raised his eyebrows, turned his body to his side, and said in a low voice, "That old man is still on the throne, you have become Prince Mingyue, Sima Shaojun is letting it go, this king's letting it go"

Sima Shaojun looked at the sneer at the corner of his mouth and did not speak, staring at the reflection in the wine glass, and stopped there.

"His Royal Highness, you should thank me." Qin Yu withdrew his body, looked forward and said lightly, "Otherwise, how could you become the prince so easily, how could Mrs. Zhang marry her daughter to you?"

"That's right." Sima Shaojun suddenly smiled, and picked up the wine baron, "My lord hasn't congratulated me yet."

His eyes shifted to the wine baron on the table, Qin Yu paused for a moment, then slowly picked up "I wish His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess a happy marriage for a hundred years."

The two glasses collided, Qin Yu drank it all in one gulp, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said "good wine" in admiration

"It's really good wine." Sima Shaojun put down his glass.

The two didn't talk anymore, and after a long time, the shadow of the tree shifted. Qin Yu looked at the time and stood up. When everyone saw King Jin standing up, they immediately silenced their voices and looked at King Jin.

"I'm too drunk to drink, my lords have a good time." After finishing speaking, he took Li Han and left.

After King Jin left, everyone dispersed one after another, and the Prince's Mansion soon became quiet again. The personal eunuch, Xiao Lizi, slowly walked in and stood beside Sima Shaojun.

"Prince, it's time to rest"

"Give this to the Crown Princess." Sima Shaojun took out a piece of letterhead, got up and walked out alone, "Just say that I am in the study."

"Yes" Xiao Lizi watched him leave, shook his head and left.

"What did the prince say?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Xiao Lizi and asked.

"This is what the prince asked the servant to give you." Xiao Lizi bowed and put the letter on it.

Mrs. Zhang took the letter, Xiao Li retreated away, she looked down, frowned and let out a long sigh, the unrest in her heart receded a lot.

The mountains and rivers are broken, living in the world, seeing each other without face, Wang Qing understands, these twelve words are the helplessness of the dynasty's downfall, and the sadness of the broken old dreams.

Jin Wang Xingyuan

Qin Yu had a sweet dream in his youth, just when he was enjoying himself, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and instantly turned over and sat up on the bed.

"Li Han" he covered his heart, his face was ugly, this king really shouldn't drink that glass of wine.

"Prince" Li Han rushed in, King Jin's voice was difficult, he thought there was an assassin.

"Go...seek the imperial physician"

King Jin was lying on the bed, his face was pale, Li Han rushed out, and the imperial doctor came after a while.After a lot of tossing, Qin Yu could feel better after drinking a bowl of frighteningly bitter concoction.

Alas... why didn't I sleep all night!This king is really stupid.
