We all know that in our history, once an emperor becomes a prisoner, he must be humiliated. For example, the shame of Jing Kang during the Song Dynasty was that the emperor was captured by the enemy. After that, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong also performed the sheep-leading ceremony, and those female relatives were even more miserable. Either she entered the harem and became someone else's concubine, or she became an official prostitute. In the end, Emperor Huizong of Song and Emperor Qinzong of Song, the two emperors were even more miserable and died in other places, and even the corpses could not be found. But the strange thing is that the town of Zhuqi during the Ming Dynasty was also captured by Wa La, but unlike the previous Song Huizong, Zhu Qi town was enshrined as a guest. The same is the captive emperor, why is the gap so large?
01 Different dynasties, the founding emperor influenced the judgment
First of all, we can compare the founding emperors of the two dynasties, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty was Zhao Kuangyin, and the founder of the Ming Dynasty was Zhu Yuanzhang. In terms of identity, Zhu Yuanzhang is just a low-level person who wants to eat, and Zhao Kuangyin is also a wise god who is full of poetry. However, the standards of vision and morality have made the two have a certain gap, Zhao Kuangyin is very, and he likes a married woman. For example, after Lady Huarui of Hou shu was captured, she was immediately taken by Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin's younger brother Zhao Guangyi was even more shameless, after Li Yu and his empress were captured. Zhao Kuangyin openly recruited Li Yu's empress into the palace for sexual immorality, and forced Li Yu to give thanks.
Zhu Yuanzhang is completely different in this regard, after he grew up from a low-level counterattack to the world, in the face of the previous Yuan Dynasty royal family, Zhu Yuanzhang took a kind approach. When Xu Da besieged the Capital of Yuan, Zhu Yuanzhang also ordered people to protect the palace from harassment. What is even more atmospheric is that after Zhu Yuanzhang captured the young prince of the Yuan Dynasty, he kept him in the palace and let him go home when he grew up. It is conceivable that at this point, Zhu Yuanzhang's behavior is more patterned than that of the two brothers of the Zhao family. The beast only knows how to insult the opponent, but the true brave know how to respect the opponent.
02 The leaders of the two dynasties have different guts
In the face of the same situation where the emperor was captured, Zhao Gou, the successor of the Song Dynasty at that time, was already too bold to counterattack at all, and he did not dare to return to the capital at that time, and he only thought about how to make peace with the Jin people. Even yue fei and others at that time had already won the battle, but Zhao Zhuo still ordered the collection of troops, and then chose to move the Song Dynasty to the south of the Jiangsu Province. What is completely different is that after Zhu Qizhen was captured during the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian and other ministers quickly supported Zhu Qiyu as emperor, and at the same time moved all the people and grain and grass outside Beiping into the city. And the city defenses were strengthened, and soldiers and horses were also set up as a relay.
When the Wallachian army attacked beiping, it had been defeated, and it was learned that the Ming army was about to arrive soon, and in order to prevent being annihilated, it could only retreat to the grassland. After that, the Wala people blackmailed Zhu Qizhen, but Zhu Qiyu did not say anything about this, but instead stepped up his guard against the border. Moreover, it also demanded that the Ming Dynasty and The Walla be not allowed to trade, and cut off the supply of daily necessities to the Walla, which also forced the Walla to take the initiative to reconcile with the Ming.
03 People's hearts are not ancient, and each saves his life
At the same time, Song Huizong, Song Qinzong, who was captured at that time, and others led all the captured Zhao clan to the Jin Kingdom. And everyone is thinking about their own safety, all kinds of officials who flatter the Jin Kingdom, and from then on there is no distinction between father and son. At that time, Emperor Huizong of Song's son and his horse reported to jin that Emperor Huizong of Song wanted to rebel. After the investigation, he learned that Song Huizong was innocent, so he killed Song Huizong's son and his horse together. Under such circumstances, the Song Dynasty actually started infighting, which also made the Jin people look down on them even more.
The same situation happened to Zhu Qizhen, who had been a prisoner since he had always had a loyal general named Yuan Bin. Yuan Bin has been waiting by Zhu Qizhen's side, as long as Zhu Qizhen encounters danger. Yuan Bin will stand up, which is very admirable to the Wala people. At the same time, the internal unity of the Ming Dynasty was also very united, and after Zhu Qiyu became emperor, he was helped by Yu Qian and others. Striving to govern has always made the Ming Dynasty united, the people united, and the appearance of the whole country is even better than that of the previous ZhuqiZhen period. The state even funded the repair of the broken border defense at that time, in addition to taking the initiative to attack Vala, which also made It impossible for Walla to obtain advanced commodities from the Central Plains.
It is conceivable that under this comparison, it can also be seen why zhu Qizhen was also a prisoner, but Zhu Qizhen was able to get preferential treatment. It is precisely because of the unity of the people and the strength of the country that the enemy does not dare to easily insult the prisoners. So this is also why many people like the Ming Dynasty, a sentence of the death of the king, I don't know how many people's blood was ignited.
