Injong Zhu Gaochi, the eldest son of Yongle Emperor Judy. His imperial career was probably the weakest among the Ming emperors. My father didn't like him when he was alive. His two younger brothers, Wang Xu and Wang Zhao, both ran away from him. It is difficult to guarantee his inheritance right. Finally, many years later, my daughter-in-law became a grandmother, and my father died after 22 years as emperor. At 47, he finally succeeded to the throne. The dragon chair was not hot, and the emperor died eight months later. By the Ming Dynasty, his days as emperor were only longer than those of Emperor Taichang who had been sitting in the dragon chair for more than a month.

Judy doesn't like her eldest son Gao Chi. One reason is that he is too kind and kind. To put it bluntly, he is a little weak. He is not as powerful as his grandfather and his father, nor is he like a monarch who rules the world and makes his subjects tremble. Second, because of poor health, suffering from severe obesity, walking is very inconvenient and requires two people to help. Both his grandfather and his father, Jison, fought in the war. Judy can get off the horse and run the country, so he can't like such a successor. What is more frightening is that this cowardly eldest son has two capable and restless younger brothers. Especially the second son Zhu, whose father went south, the emperor took power, set an example and led the army as the pioneer. He has made great achievements in Nanjing. In this battle, Judy promised his favorite second son: Your eldest brother is in poor health, you work hard and the country will be yours sooner or later.

Gaochi can finally inherit the unification. First of all, Judy is bound by the eldest son inheritance system; Second, because Gao Chi married a good wife and gave birth to a good son, Zhu Zhanji, the eldest son of Chu Huaiwang Ai Renzong. The enthusiastic Queen Zhang also has the demeanor of Zhu Yuanzhang's harmonious Queen Xu. She's smart, and she's a real wife and mother. In the words of ancient life letters, she had a "rich life".

According to records, since Zhang married Renzong, she has been very popular with her in-laws. When Injong was a prince in the Eastern Palace, he was repeatedly gossiped by two younger brothers, Hanwang and Wang Zhao. Because he was too fat to ride horses and shoot arrows, Ming Chengzu was very angry and ordered to cut the prince's diet in the palace. The prince was changed almost many times, and then he was finally saved. It is said that it is because of Queen Zhang. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the biggest problem of extended family. This queen can make her mother-in-law happy, which shows that she is not a gangster. Like the Ming and Qing dynasties, consorts are difficult to treat, and there are many virtuous women.

Dad's slimming plan for Renzong's rule has not achieved any effect. Think about it. It's hard to lose weight in middle age. Slimming is just a gesture. Show it to dad. After Gao Chi became emperor, although his criticism of his father could not be exposed due to feudal ethics, I am afraid he also lamented a lot. Because he has lived in his father's shadow all his life, he has a little resentment towards his father's favorite eldest son, Zhu Zhanji. I don't like it anymore. Love was named Wang Xiang's fifth son. Judy said many times before her death that he named Gao Made Prince because he loved his grandson and clearly expressed his feelings to his subjects. In the future, Gao Chi's only heir to the throne is his grandson Zhan Ji. This practice of appointing successors every other generation deprives Injong of the right to choose successors, and the harm to himself can be imagined.

Because of his son's brilliance, he became the benevolent government of the emperor, and he was incredibly jealous of his son, so it is understandable. However, some people in later generations came to the conclusion that if Injong was emperor for a few more years, the prince might be abolished. I thought it was pure speculation. Renzong's dissatisfaction with his son is one thing, and it is another to give up the right to inherit the eldest son and choose another son to succeed him. Because the former is his own pride, while the latter touches the whole political situation of the imperial court and Daming Mountain, and touches his own affairs, Zhu Gaochi will not take such a risk. When my father was alive, he survived several major events, which proved that he was a kind man, but he was unambiguous. He has gre

When he took his second son south, our army launched a "encirclement of Zhao" war and sent raiders to Beiping, the capital of the prince, while the prince's army was outside. If he starts fighting rashly, the victory will be lost. At this time, regardless of his weak and obese body, Zhu Gaochi led the weak soldiers to defend Beiping City, watched the battle with bows and arrows, and encouraged the soldiers. The confederate army finally failed. His achievements in maintaining the base areas have become one of the main weights of his future inheritance rights.

In the 16th year of Yongle, Ming Taizu lived in his hometown, Beijing, and let Zhu Gaochi run the country as a prince. He questioned the prince's illegal behavior, instructed Hu Kun, assistant minister of rites, to spy on the prince's behavior, and suggested that he said, "People say that the East Palace has lost many virtues. If you go to Beijing, you can stay a few more days, try it and have fun secretly! You must speak loudly, it's too late to see. " The old emperor has tendentious opinions on the prince, and the general officials will cater to the above wishes and collect the "bad" words and deeds of the prince. Hu Ying was deeply impressed by the kindness of the prince. "With the crown prince's sincere heart about the seven things of Xiaojin in secret, it is natural to be suspicious."

The cleverest thing about this kind man is that he knows his father's character and his own situation. In the face of sinister and sinister Ming Chengzu, can narrow-mindedness fool the past? It is not good to please others blindly. Just keep changing and be honest with your tail between your legs. He can finally ascend the throne of the emperor. Compared with his two younger brothers, he has the last laugh. In his own words, his winning strategy is: "I know I have done my duty, but I don't know anything else." Sometimes, this stupid method is more effective.

Although Renzong's reign was short, he pardoned many former ministers of culture and health, rehabilitated many unjust prisons, abolished many tyrannies and stopped the large-scale war launched by Emperor Yongle. The whole nation has rested, civilization has revived, and the treatment of scholars is better than that of Hongwu and Yongle dynasties. Therefore, later generations spoke highly of him and lamented that his reign was too short. Judging from his own talents, he obviously doesn't belong to the kind of reformist with spearhead and verve. Compared with Hanwu, Qin Shihuang and even his grandfather and father, he is also relatively ordinary. But his greatest feature is to respect the talents of his subjects and guide them in one way or another as little as possible. Such an ordinary emperor brought much more benefits to the public than those who were gifted and unwilling to be ordinary. In Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Qin Shihuang and Yang Di were both brilliant emperors, but they both liked fooling around. Therefore, the temple is named.
