Chapter 229 Ancestor
Chapter 229 Ancestor
"Hehe, why are you back?" Xu Yihua stood up and looked at the dusty Zhu Di, feeling a little amused and helpless for a moment.
"The prince wrote to me, saying that you are ill."
The benefit of the expansion of the land area is that, although there are risks in sea transportation by small boats, the message can be delivered by expedited land transportation of 800 miles and then sending a message to the caravan.
The news of the "Queen's Illness" was transmitted across the sea from the former Tsarist Russian border to the desolate America.
"What kind of place is America?"
"Not very good, just a bunch of little black guys..."
Zhu Di smiled as he talked about what he saw, "They are not as black as those in Africa, their skin is brown like tree bark, and they are barbaric, a bit like the primitive tribes that believe in shamanism."
"Haha, after we conquer the rose land of Europe, we will have no rivals anymore?" Xu Yihua looked at Zhu Di's expression and knew what he was thinking.
“You still understand me.
It's a pity that the Rose Country in Europe is just a small island...
But you know how excited Mimi is when she practices with you."
When talking about their granddaughter, the two old people have endless things to talk about.
"If I hadn't given birth to a girl like this, I wouldn't have known that the Crown Princess's nature was like this, hahaha."
As she was talking, Xu Yihua started to laugh.
"What did I say back then? She was the most calm and steady, and everyone's first choice for a clan wife."
Zhu Di was very satisfied with his daughter-in-law Zhang Zhiwei, and he did not think Xu Yihua had made a mistake.
"It's actually true. Look at how the Eastern Palace is living. It's very stable.
Didn’t she give birth to another grandson for you a few days ago?
Oh...time flies so fast.
In a blink of an eye, Gao Chi is already an old boy. Do you still remember how fat he was when he was a child?"
"Two Ferghana horses were crushed to death at the wedding. You must have felt so bad for them. You ruined their meal on the spot. Little Zhang was so dumbfounded. Hahahahahaha."
"Hahahahahaha!"
There was laughter in Kunning Palace, it was very lively.
In the 13th year of Yongle, the emperor took power and the crown prince requested a leave, but the emperor rejected it.
In the fourteenth year of Yongle, the empress died of illness in the capital. The emperor stopped attending court for three days and was in great grief.
In the 14th year of Yongle, the emperor suffered from heart palpitations and became seriously ill, but he recovered after a month.
In the 15th year of Yongle, Yao Guangxiao, the Prince's Junior Tutor, passed away.
In the 17th year of Yongle, the capital was moved to Beijing and the emperor named it "Forbidden City".
In February of the eighteenth year of Yongle, the emperor's eldest granddaughter went south to quell the rebellion.
In August of the eighteenth year of Yongle, Zheng He toured various countries.
……
In the 20th year of Yongle's reign, Zheng He returned, and royal families, nobles, and servants from hundreds of countries came to pay homage.
In the 22nd year of Yongle, the emperor died of illness in Beijing, leaving behind three edicts.
First, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi was made the successor to the throne; second, the crown princess Zhu Zhanji was made the successor; and third, the crown princess Zhang Zhiwei was made the regent queen.
In the first year of Hongxi, Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne.
In October of the first year of Hongxi, Zhu Gaochi was seriously ill, and the Crown Princess and the Regent Queen acted as regents.
In March of the second year of Hongxi, Zhu Gaochi died of illness.
The Crown Princess and the Queen Regent declined the throne to each other. Twenty-one days later, the Crown Princess and the Queen ascended the throne together and became emperors. The mother and daughter ruled the country together and the two emperors ruled together.
This year, Zhu Zhanji is twenty-five years old and Zhang Zhiwei is forty-six years old.
The following year, the country's name was changed to Qianyuan.
Although there were two saints ruling together, there was actually very little Zhang Zhiwei could do.
"Ugh……"
It's not because her daughter is fighting for power, but because she really has nothing to do.
All the exciting things were ruined by Zhu Di.
My daughter at least has the World Conquest Experience Card, but all she has is...regent, regent, regent, regent, regent...endless regent!!!
Zhang Zhiwei knew what the consequences of giving Zhu Di a world map would be.
:)
Women, keep smiling no matter what setbacks you encounter.
Zhang Zhiwei has been wearing a veil since she was 35 years old. Her face hidden behind the black veil is rarely emotionally broken and hideous.
However, as an emperor, you must be good at finding work for yourself.
So, she handed the three works to Zhu Zhanshu with a smile.
How to Rule the World with Ancient Technology
How to establish the concept of multi-ethnic unity
How to launch the Industrial Revolution in the Ming Dynasty
She has a lot to do in this life, and Zhu Zhanqi can't escape either.
They are mother and daughter and they share the difficulties together.
In the second year of Qianyuan, there was a general election for the East Palace and the West Palace.
The Eastern Palace belonged to Empress Qian Zhang, and the Western Palace belonged to Empress Yuan Zhu Zhanji.
In February of the third year of Qianyuan, the Industrial Revolution in Peking began.
On the seventh day of the sixth month in the fifth year of Qianyuan, Empress Qian reprimanded her ministers from dawn to sunset.
On the eighth day of the sixth month in the fifth year of Qianyuan, all the civil and military officials in the court knelt in front of the Golden Palace.
In October of the fifth year of Qianyuan, hundreds of schools of thought came to a head, and officials from the north and south of the Han Dynasty shook hands and made peace, formally negotiating how to divide the world and rule a multi-ethnic country.
In November of the fifth year of Qianyuan, Western Europe rebelled and the Yuan Empress personally led the army to fight.
In March of the sixth year of Qianyuan, the daughter of Emperor Yuan returned victoriously.
In February of the seventh year of Qianyuan, Empress Yuan was critically ill and died three days later.
"..."
Zhang Zhiwei, dressed in a white robe, stood in front of the bed, watching Zhu Zhanqi's breathing gradually stop and his soul gradually leave his body.
She was silent.
She did not give Zhu Zhan the physique of an immortal.
Zhu Zhanqiao is a mortal being. She is an ordinary girl who inherited Zhu Gaochi's frailty, the old Zhu family's cardiovascular disease, and the hidden injuries she suffered when she was young while accompanying her grandfather in battle.
She knew that she should be a little sad both morally and logically.
She was indeed like that, otherwise she would not stand here and watch her life gradually fade away, nor would she take the initiative to block the pain for her before death.
But she will not regret the decision she made, nor will she hate anything.
Birth, aging, sickness and death are like the coming and going of spring and autumn and the withering of trees, flowers and plants. They are the cycle and laws of nature.
There is affection between them, but also ruthlessness.
So when she saw the Black and White Impermanence taking Zhu Zhanqi away, and when she saw her staring at her own completely different soul in amazement, she did not explain, but just smiled sweetly.
"Have a safe journey, daughter."
Your great merit of pacifying the four directions will allow you to be reborn into a wealthy family in your next life in this world, and become a top lady or queen.
……
In March of the seventh year of Qianyuan, Empress Qian appointed the eldest daughter of Empress Yuan as the Crown Princess.
……
In the 17th year of Qianyuan, the Crown Princess launched an uprising but failed.
In the twenty-seventh year of Qianyuan, the Crown Princess launched an uprising but failed.
In the thirty-seventh year of Qianyuan, the Crown Princess launched an uprising but failed.
In the fifty-seventh year of Qianyuan, Empress Qian made the eldest daughter of the Crown Princess the Crown Princess's granddaughter.
In the fifty-eighth year of Qianyuan, Empress Qian personally toured various states, suppressed rebellions and oversaw the implementation of new policies.
In the 62nd year of Qianyuan, the crown prince's granddaughter succeeded to the throne and changed the country's name to Zhengtong.
The twenty-seventh year of Zhengtong, the eighteenth year of Jingtai, the eighth year of Tianshun...
When other countries heard that there was no Supreme Emperor of the Ming Dynasty still alive, they did not dare to act rashly.
In the 23rd year of Chenghua and the 18th year of Hongzhi, there was a rebellion in Europe. The Supreme Emperor personally led the army to fight, and with just a sword in hand, he scared off the three armies.
The eighteenth year of Hongzhi, the thirty-seventh year of Zhengde, the fortieth year of Jiajing, the thirty-second year of Longqing, the forty-eighth year of Wanli, the thirtieth year of Taichang, the twentieth year of Tianqi, and the thirty-ninth year of Chongzhen.
From the Chenghua period to the present, there have been a total of six empresses.
The Ming Dynasty has lasted for 476 years.
The spiritual energy faded.
Zhang Zhiwei saw that the spiritual energy around her was no longer enough to nourish her life, and she also sensed that her cultivation was reaching a bottleneck, so she summoned the new emperor Hongguang.
"Ancestor, what do you want?"
The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has a mystery that has never been revealed to outsiders.
That is the longevity of this ancestor.
Our ancestors would prove to every emperor that there are immortals in the world.
But then she would cruelly tell her with facts that the royal family of their Zhu family did not inherit her immortal blood, and that there is a difference between immortals and mortals.
Therefore, Taoism flourished in the Ming Dynasty and was regarded as the state religion, but no emperor was obsessed with seeking immortals or asking for the way.
She is cruel, but also wise.
"My destiny has come."
The ancestor's words made Emperor Hongguang feel a little helpless.
On her face, which had inherited Zhang Zhiwei's outstanding beauty, there appeared expressions of shock, disbelief, and so on, as if the sky had fallen.
"Don't be afraid. Even without the power of immortals, didn't your ancestors do well?"
"Yes, but..."
"Don't ask for buts."
When facing her 'ancestor', the Empress Hongguang, who was rumored to have ascended the throne at a young age and was praised for her courage as that of Qianyuan, acted like a child.
"Come here. Before you die, I'll give you a blessing that no one else has, okay?"
"The immortal stroked my head and gave me eternal life.
Eliminate disasters and diseases, and enjoy eternal happiness. "
A breeze suddenly rose from the room, and new buds began to grow from under the feet of the ancestors.
In this breeze, Hongguang saw the face of this mysterious ancestor who always wore a veil.
It was a face that looked 80% like his own.
But she has the grace carved out by time, and calm eyes that witness the history of the Ming Dynasty.
“Ancestor!
Junior, congratulations on your ascension to immortality!"
