For three hundred years in the Ming Dynasty, there were no vassals, no land cuts, no peace, no indemnities, the Son of Heaven guarding the gates of the country, and the death of the king.
This paragraph is about the iron bones of the Ming Dynasty, and the emperor we are going to talk about today is the Yongle Emperor, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di.
Zhu Di is the fourth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang is born to be a killer, we say that Wen is like a person, you can see the poems that Zhu Yuanzhang has done. "Kill all the million soldiers in Jiangnan, the sword around the waist is still bloody, the mountain monk does not know the hero, only asks for his name" This seven poems perfectly summarizes Zhu Yuanzhang's style of handling things in the first half of his life.
As the son of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di perfectly inherited this frontal hard style. After his nephew claimed the title of emperor, Zhu Di was dissatisfied, and with his soldiers, he killed all the way to the capital with a knife, knocked Emperor Jianwen down from power, and ascended the throne himself as emperor.
In this battle, Zhu Di was also a heroic and brilliant strategy, killing the city of Nanjing with less than half a million people. Zhu Di inherited the bloodline inheritance is very perfect, not only has his Lao Tzu "Teddy" style, but also is diligent and loves the people, gets up four times a day, works until late at night, in case there is an urgent play late at night, Zhu Di will also get up and read, wind and rain, thunder and thunder can not move.
This emperor is still a real person, such as Yongle thirteen years, Zhu Di's northern expedition, as the son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the war is definitely a good hand, this battle is undoubtedly victorious, at this time guizhou envoys came up to pat the horse's ass: the emperor triumphantly passed, the guizhou mountains have a feeling, and the hundred thousand mountains shouted long live.
For other emperors estimated that the reward was happy, Zhu Di was different, and directly said: I am fighting in the north, how do the mountains of Guizhou know, a look is that you old boy is not at ease, punish!
After all, his father's Hu Weiyong case killed people rolling around, those temple masters trembled under the rule of the old Zhu family, Zhu Di was also unambiguous, once there was corruption in the household department, Zhu Di did not say a word, raising his hand was killing.
Such a person, his blood nature is also used between countries, such as Mongolia, in front of Zhu Di to do things, the five conquests of Mongolia then have, the descendants of Genghis Khan can not distinguish between the southeast, south and northwest, Mongolia luck is still good, at least survived, the southern Vietnamese country is not so lucky.
During Zhu Yuanzhang's reign, he established fifteen unconquered states, including Vietnam. In the Yongle period, this small country was particularly inflated, all day long there was nothing to jump up and down, naughty even if it was not dirty, hands and feet were not clean, put his hands on the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the old Zhu family, the old Zhu family, the Yongle Emperor who shouted "the son of heaven guards the gate of the country, the king dies in the society" Can the Yongle Emperor bear it?
Fight, fight fiercely, with a year, the Division of the Ming Dynasty, directly put the Vietnamese hammer full of bags, the entire country was destroyed, the territory was divided into China, the history is called the Southern Expedition to Annam.
The strength of the Yongle Emperor was not only reflected here, in the West, far away in Central Asia, when there was another powerful kingdom in the world called the Timurid Kingdom, how strong this kingdom was, you should know that you have studied history. Later, the country honestly paid tribute to Yongle The Great, and the way of paying tribute was also very special, and their king said that the horse that was now offered was once ridden by his "father" Timur, and he did not dare to ride it, hoping that Yongle The Great could ride it.
Well, it's a confession in disguise.
It is precisely because of the great talent of Yongle The Great, during his reign, all the countries came to the dynasty, and the history of the people "Si Min Xiaokang" was called yongle prosperous.
