Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang will not be idle. Three thousand beauties in the harem waited day and night for the love of Emperor Daming. In fact, the emperors in ancient China were mostly three palaces and six courtyards, and there were few shameless and dissolute emperors. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, from Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of Hongwu, to Judy, the emperor of Yongle in Jingnan. Needless to say, the later emperor set off a carnival. Zhu Hou in the Jin and Jia Dynasties and Zhu Zaixiang in Qin Long both liked to use aphrodisiacs, while Zhu Yijun, the emperor of Wanli, was a bad king with four kinds of poisons. The prince's debauchery is even worse. The so-called "men and women sit together and care about each other, but the awl and axe don't stand, or they are shot or branded" is a true portrayal of their ugly misdeeds.
People scoff at Ming Taizu's dissolute and shameless dissolute behavior, and people of insight abhor it. Huang Zongxi, a thinker in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, criticized the emperor as "a loner who only entertains himself". But throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, few emperors loved each other, respected each other and admired each other. They are model couples! Zhu Youtang, the filial son of Ming Dynasty, is a typical example.
1487, Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen died and Zhu Youtang became hongzhi emperor. Historically, it was also called filial piety in the Ming Dynasty. He was the only wise monarch who worked hard in the middle of Ming Dynasty. After he ascended the throne, he tried to reverse the corruption in government affairs in Xianzong period, expel adulterers, arrest assistant minister Li Zi and eunuch Liang Fang, and eliminate their relatives and henchmen. Cut off these officials and wipe out thousands of people, such as Ren Jie and Assistant Minister. Discuss crimes and condemn them. Get rid of the titles of French king, Zen master, Buddha and real person, take back their letters and deeds and send them home. And adjust the cabinet team, appoint talents, promote Xu Pu, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and other famous officials to participate in confidential affairs. Advocating outspoken remonstrance, revising provinces for many times, and striving to speak frankly so that officials can speak frankly. Pay attention to saving, reduce the supply of materials and save all kinds of expenses. Filial piety is the government, and the grain tax in the disaster area has been repeatedly reduced. It is forbidden for courtiers to seek help in official business, and it is forbidden for the royal family to occupy land and infringe on the interests of the people. Attach great importance to justice, let all departments around the world try and record felons, and handle criminal cases cautiously. In the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, the Biography of Kings of the Ming Dynasty was formulated. Five years later, the interrogation and punishment regulations were successfully compiled.
In the eighteenth year of filial piety, the phenomenon of eunuch's disorderly administration was obviously weakened, and measures were taken to develop the economy, save the crisis, alleviate social contradictions and bring about a relatively stable period. At that time, social and economic development was rapid, politics was clear, officials and people were stable, and foreign troubles were eliminated. History is called Hongzhi Zhongxing.
1505, that is, May 7th, the 18th year of Hongzhi, was nearly 36 years old and died in Gan Qing Palace. He said in his suicide note: "Daejeon Ming Dow Zhen, Zheng Zheng Wen Sheng SHEN WOO, Ren Dade Zunhuang." It is said that Xiaozong caught a cold. Eunuch, ambassador of Imperial Hospital, provincial judges Liu, Gao Tinghe, Imperial Doctor and others prescribed prescriptions privately, which led to Xiaozong's accidental nosebleed and death. 10 June 19, Terry was buried. During his filial piety, he not only chose a good official to participate in politics, but also participated in politics diligently. He often calls ministers to the Wenhua Hall to discuss their rules and regulations, asking them to write down their agreed opinions, and then revise and publish them. Therefore, Li Dongyang, the etiquette at that time, once said that since Tianshun, for more than 30 years, the emperor summoned his ministers and asked only one or two words, but now he has repeatedly asked them and discussed them in detail, which is unprecedented! In the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, Liu Jian, a great scholar, said in the last play that the day after tomorrow, documents sent from all over the country were often piled up in cabinets, and it was too late to deal with them. If there are disasters and various alarms in all four directions, there will be delays. Therefore, Xiaozong called relevant ministers twice a day to discuss the matter on the platform, except in the morning and evening. Since then, a new way of court discussion has emerged, called "platform call".
Filial piety is generosity and gentleness to subordinates. In the early Qing Dynasty, the Lord of Fengtianmen was Xiaozong, and the ministers chatted in the left and right cloisters. Some priests lost the ability to walk because of the wet ground. Filial piety never asks guilt, and the script is wrong. After the banquet, the officials lost their ability, and he comforted these characters not to panic. In the cold winter, Xiaozong worried that some officials would encounter cold and darkness when they went out to work at night. On one occasion, he issued an imperial edict, ordering officials who would meet in Beijing in the future to come back at night no matter where they were, and also ordering soldiers to pass lanterns. These things are not big, but as a feudal emperor, it is not easy to be so elegant.
Filial piety can also be frugal in life without any emotion. In the first year of Hongzhi, that is, A.D. 1488, Lu, North Korea's envoy to the Ming Dynasty, once said to korean king, "In the past, the emperor employed people, but now the emperor pays attention to benevolence and righteousness. Sex doesn't like playing with things. Although Melissa Zhou did not abolish the court meeting, all the ministers attending the meeting wore mourning clothes, but they sacrificed their yellow robes to heaven. Ministers don't play music or juggle at the banquet. They suggest putting flowers on the bed instead of eating them. Generally speaking, the emperor's dereliction of duty is even more embarrassing. " Xian Di liked to wear red plain cloth made by Songjiang Prefecture before his death, and sent thousands of horses there every year. This kind of cloth called cloth is actually made of fine wool. When Xiaozong was a prince, the maid brought him new clothes. However, he thinks that clothes sewn with this cloth are more valuable than clothes forged with brocade. It's a waste to wear it. You're welcome. When he became emperor, he immediately ordered to stop weaving this kind of cloth for the palace.
Even in martial arts, filial piety has made achievements. He made great efforts to defeat Turpan and recover the land west of Jiayuguan, so that the people of Hami no longer suffered from the war. Filial piety has repeatedly ordered the Great Wall to be rebuilt to resist the invasion of Mongols.
Filial piety is also very self-disciplined in court life. He only married one queen Zhang in his life. Because her posthumous title was a filial queen, and Tian Zansheng, a poet from Kangduan, Su Zhuang and Yi Zhe, respected her, she was called Kang Jing in history. The queen was born in a scholar's family, beautiful, intelligent and lively, and was deeply loved by filial piety. Although the harem is full of makeup, Ming Xiaozong has no intention of getting close to her, and he has never been a noble beauty. She only lives with the queen every day, living a husband-and-wife life like ordinary people. Huang Jingyun, a scholar in the late Ming Dynasty, was even more appreciative. He said, "Love is the best post-tension, like folk life."
Folk couples, that is, model couples! As an ancient emperor with supreme power, it is rare for Ming Xiaozong to perform so well in this dispute.
