Chapter 4399 Chapter 4401 [Dian Cang Mountain]
Although Zhu Yuanzhang accepted Xiang Nan's reminder, the emperor did do well during his tenure. But it was a pity that his descendants were really unbearable. Zhu Yunwen blindly reduced the vassal status and provoked a mutiny, and was eventually overthrown by his uncle Zhu Di.
Legend has it that when Zhu Di invaded the Jinling Palace, a fire suddenly broke out in the palace, and Zhu Yunwen took the opportunity to escape from the palace. But Xiang Nan knew that Zhu Yunwen was indeed dead, and the fire was used to burn him.
After all, it didn't sound good for the uncle to kill his nephew, so he said he took advantage of the fire to escape from the palace. In this way, some of the resentment among the ruling and opposition parties can be relieved.
After Zhu Di succeeded to the throne, his son Renzong, Zhu Zhanji, and grandson Xuanzong did well, and history is known as the "Yongle prosperous age" and the "Renxuan rule".
However, the Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen, favored the eunuchs, which led to the Tumu Fort Incident, which almost destroyed the Ming Dynasty. A group of capable ministers simply appointed a new emperor, Zhu Qiyu, to take the throne, and stabilized the government in time to avoid a catastrophe.
However, since Zhu Qiyu had no son, Zhu Qizhen, under the cover of another group of ministers, launched a coup to seize the throne and regained the imperial power.
Between him and his son Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen, the country of the Ming Dynasty was fortunate to be well-off and peaceful. And Zhu Jianshen's son, Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youtang, was a very accomplished emperor, and his historical evaluation was very high.
Historian Zhu Guozhen praised Ming Xiaozong, "Three generations below, those who are called wise masters are Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, and Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty."
Zeng Guofan, a famous general of the Qing Dynasty, also praised, "Since ancient times, the most wise and wise kings have often achieved great success. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Tang Dynasty, Renzong of the Song Dynasty, Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty, and Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, they all had extraordinary talents, handsome men, Yuntun, and Kun. Yao Compendium.”
But it is a pity that Zhu Youtang's son, Emperor Zhengde, Zhu Houzhao, was more promiscuous. He favored eunuchs, indulged in pleasure, indulged in wine and sex, and was immoral.
He built a lot of construction projects in the city, built a leopard house, and played with beauties and prostitutes all day long. He enjoyed it so much that all major national affairs were left to the eunuchs around him. This led to the eunuchs' monopoly power, chaos in the government, and frequent civil commotions.
Subsequently, Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houcong, Longqing Emperor Zhu Zaihe, Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun, Taichang Emperor Zhu Changluo, Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian, etc. were almost inferior to each other.
Especially after Emperor Chongzhen came to the throne, the Ming Dynasty was besieged on all sides, with internal political chaos and popular uprisings. Externally, the Jurchens outside the customs had become bigger and stronger, and they often invaded the south and plundered the Central Plains. However, the Ming Dynasty's army was exhausted and unable to stop it.
In the end, Li Zicheng led the Dashun Army into the capital, and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself on Jingshan Mountain. Wu Sangui sent Qing troops into the pass, captured the capital, and occupied the Central Plains.
…
During the reign of the Ming Dynasty, successive Ming emperors supported the Quanzhen Religion, especially Emperor Jiajing, who was obsessed with alchemy and Taoism. He even sent people to Zhongnan Mountain every year to present gifts to Xiang Nan, hoping that he would bestow elixirs, holy water.
Moreover, Xiang Nan was given a title by almost every generation of emperors. By the time of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Xiang Nan's title had been increased to more than thirty characters, "Tai Chi Xuantian Supreme True Cultivator of Ten Thousand Daos Wuwei Shangling Yuli Han Zhenjinque Nine Domes" The Ming Palace protects the country and shelters the people, and provides all-round support and all-round spirituality. Hongren and Puji are great emperors."
At the end of the day, I couldn't add any more, because the number of words in the account was too long, which was really not conducive to dissemination. However, the people only call Xiang Nan the "Tai Chi Emperor", and his status is only below the Three Qing Dynasties and within the Six Imperial Guards.
The others are the Jade Emperor of Zhongtian, the Ziwei Emperor of the Arctic, the Changsheng Emperor of the South Pole, the Qinghua Emperor of the East Pole, and the Houtu Emperor. It can be said that the status is quite high.
…
The reason is also very simple. The rule of the Qing Dynasty was like a nightmare for China. By clamping down on politics, clamping down on the economy, clamping down on culture, and clamping down on ideas, China was originally a top power in the world, and its scientific and technological level was very advanced. By the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the emergence of a bourgeoisie had emerged.
But unfortunately, after the Qing troops entered the country, in order to consolidate their rule, they used the Literary Prison to suppress thought and restrict foreign trade and the spread of advanced culture. As a result, China became more and more mixed back.
Xiang Nan naturally did not want to give him the Heshi Bi and recognize his legal and orthodox status.
Moreover, he not only took back He's Bi, he also took back the ten-sided stone tablets in Zhongnan Mountain, Muren Pass, Tongren Pass, Yinren Pass, Jinren Pass, the three Buddhist Scripture Pavilions, and the Qimen Dunjia installed in Zhongnan Mountain. , and both villas were recovered together.
"Xiaochuan, what are you doing? We won't live here anymore?" Gao Yao asked doubtfully.
Xiang Nan nodded, "In another two hundred years, it will be modern times. It's time for us people to retire, otherwise, how will we be written about in the history books? We cannot disturb history, otherwise you and I will probably not be born. , that would be troublesome. Without us in the future, there would be no us now.”
"So that's it." Gao nodded, "Then where will we go after leaving Zhongnan Mountain?"
"With our current ability, we can conquer the world." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
Gao Yao, Xiao Yue, Lu Su, Yu Shu, Xiao Zhen, Xiao Qing and others have all lived for nearly two thousand years. No matter how useless he is, he has practiced superb martial arts for two thousand years.
What's more, with the guidance of the famous teacher Xiang Nan, their current strength means that they are all capable of defeating thousands of enemies. In the era of cold weapons, they are basically unmatched. Even if they encounter hot weapons, they can still resist, unless they are armor-piercing bombs, high-explosive bombs, or nuclear bombs. Something like that.
In short, their strength is enough to level the playing field. Even if they are really in danger, they can escape in time and no one can stop them.
"But I don't think I should wrong myself. Let's find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, singing birds and fragrant flowers, and spring-like weather all year round." Xiang Nan thought about it again, and then after everyone discussed it, they unanimously decided to live in southern Yunnan.
Xiang Nan and others then moved to Diancang Mountain in southern Yunnan.
Xiang Nan had been a disciple of Dian Cangshan in the world of "New Crane and Divine Needle", so he was quite familiar with this place.
Therefore, he settled at Canglang Peak, the most beautiful place in Diancang Mountain, and continued his practice.
…
After the stone tablets, checkpoints, Buddhist Scripture Pavilion, Qimen Dunjia, etc. disappeared in Zhongnan Mountain, the people who came to Zhongnan Mountain to burn incense, worship the gods, and learn from the teachers were all dumbfounded.
After nearly two thousand years of development, the idea that there are immortals and magical skills on Zhongnan Mountain has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Every year, I don’t know how many people come to burn incense and pray for blessings, and I don’t know how many martial arts people come to take risks...
But now the stone tablet is gone, and so is the Sutra Pavilion. No one could tell whether the immortal passed away or whether the opportunity had arrived and attained enlightenment, so everyone was talking about it.
Of course, the most credible one is that the immortal has really ascended. Otherwise, if he just died, why are the stone tablets, checkpoints, and scripture-storing pavilions all missing?
In view of this, people's worship of him became more and more fanatical. It's just pity for those martial arts people. They originally wanted to learn some magical secrets, but now all they can learn is the widely circulated "Quanzhen Dao Song".
