Nanjing City
Today we all saw the tall and majestic
At that time, there was still a circle outside Nanjing City
outer city
Look at such a big place in Nanjing
it has two walls
This is Zhu Yuanzhang back then
to defend the capital
It turned out that he was fighting against Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng
Defend this place in Nanjing to build
so what
very strict defense
So it's not easy to make the two-layer city wall public.
Then in the outer city of these two layers of city walls
Most importantly, the Northwest
There is a city gate called Jinchuan Gate in this place.
Bear the brunt
Attacking on this Zhu Di
this formation
Zhu Weiwen sent someone to stop here
who to send
It's interesting to say
two principals were appointed
one person
Li Jinglong
everyone is familiar
That's right, when you lose a battle, you run away
Send him on a mission to Zhu Dina
I was too scared to say a word
just one person
Zhu Yunwen sent him to guard the most critical city gate
another person
ancient king Zhu Hui
The ancient king is a feudal king
You, Emperor Jianwen, caused such a big deal
The most important reason is Xiao Fan
There is a rivalry between you and the prince
So now you put your own money and life
Leave it to these two people to stay here
so it's hard for us to understand
Not only Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen
Those people around Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen at that time
don't know what to think
What good results can these two people get here?
These two guys discussed it
Say it's all over now
Let's stay here and die for him
it won't work out
Zhu Di came with this army, so powerful
Sooner or later this Nanjing will be conquered
we might as well surrender
So the two discussed
don't fight this battle
Open Jinchuan Gate
Welcome the Yan army into the city
So there was no real defense battle in Nanjing City
Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen
put the most critical place
handed over to the least trustworthy person
So the city of Nanjing was conquered like this
It was at Jinchuan Gate
There is a soldier guarding the Jinchuan Gate
he witnessed it firsthand
very angry
Throw away the weapon in your hand
call touge to cry
Then I left this Nanjing
go away by yourself
His descendants later recorded this incident
look at these
High officials and nobles
Their personality is far inferior to that of a soldier.
What about that?
Zhu Di brought the army into the
Arrived in Nanjing
So where is Emperor Jianwen at this time?
Emperor Jianwen is still in the palace
It's a mess
then
You may also know that there is a son of Xu Da
Xu Da's son is called Xu Zengshou
He is the second son of Xu Da's family.
Professor Xu Zong has always been helping Yan Wang Zhu Di
then
Emperor Jianwen detained Zhu Di's sons in Nanjing
he secretly
Let these people go
ah
This Xu Da's family
Xu Da is the founding hero
You and Zhu Yuanzhang are young, right?
great relationship
his children
In this difficult battle
This is the uncle of the Zhu family
In the middle of this fight with my nephew
split into two factions
Eldest son Xu Huizu supported Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen
second son
Xu Zengshou supports Yan Wang Zhu Di
eldest daughter
This is Princess Xu
I married Zhu Di's princess
She married Zhu Di, of course she helped Zhu Di
And also helped Zhu Di fight
Her youngest daughter Xu Miaojin
Support Emperor Jianwen
Against Zhu Di
This Xu Miaojin is just like this
Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen said
Said you don't be afraid of what's great about him
You just sit in the palace and wait for him to come
see what he can do to you
But Emperor Jianwen didn't dare
Ah, he panicked when he saw this.
At this time, this Xu Zengshou wants to be an internal response
He also wants to be an in-house responder.
Help King Zhu Di enter the city
his behavior is sneaky
And he has a past
Support Yan Wang's history
was discovered by the courtiers
The officials of the imperial court arrested this Xu Zengshou
beat up
What about Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen?
It's hard too
Ah, take out the sword yourself
Kill this Xu Zengshou
This Emperor Jianwen
about a lifetime
Don't say that he didn't kill a chicken
Such an emperor who is very kind and lenient
At this time, he killed Professor Xu Zong
ran back to the palace
I set a fire in the palace
this big fire
Just burnt out an uncrackable for hundreds of years
historical mystery
Zhu Di entered the harem of Jinchuan Gate and caught fire
Emperor Jianwen disappeared
Did Emperor Jianwen die in the fire?
Not only became a venereal disease that troubled Zhu Di all his life
It has also become the clothing that people have been scrambling to guess for hundreds of years
mia
What happened after the palace caught fire?
Regarding the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
How is it recorded in the history books?
Zhu Di led the army
When I saw the fire, I rushed to the palace
on the road
Xu Huizu led some people to resist for a while
How can I resist it?
The army has poured into the city
This tour group can't resist it at first glance.
just gave up
ran back to the temple and cried bitterly
there is no other way
Zhu Di rushed to the palace
When he arrived at the palace, was there anyone there?
Find a dead body from the fire
The body has been charred beyond recognition
I can't see what it is
What about Zhu Di after seeing it?
very sad
right? point to the corpse and say
What's the matter with the boy
say why are you doing this
What does Zhu Di mean?
he's smart
right
What he meant by that was to designate the corpse.
It is the corpse of Emperor Jianwen
But this corpse belongs to Emperor Jianwen
Still not Emperor Jianwen's
don't know
How do you remember it in the history books?
It is recorded in the history books
In the history of the Ming Dynasty, he first recorded that
palace fire
Emperor knows what to do
The palace is on fire
on fire
This Emperor Jianwen is missing
I don't know what the result is
This is a saying in Ming Dynasty
However, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, he also recorded that
envoy of King Yan
Just send eunuchs
emergence of the emperor
learn from fire
He sent eunuchs
Jianwendi
and the queen's body from inside this fire
found it
That is to say, there are two opinions.
One theory is that the fire started in the palace and the emperor didn't know where it ended.
one kind
Indeed, we found Emperor Jianwen from this fire.
and the dead body of the queen
What exactly happened
We edit history books from the same history book
see two different results
Explain that when compiling the history of the Ming Dynasty
This historical data is no longer certain
We can't find a unique statement
So those who write history
Historians have no choice but to coexist the two theories
put it in the history books
History books about Zhu Di
Find the record of Emperor Jianwen's body
Some scholars believe
This is just Zhu Di's deception
because of him
We must give the whole country the impression that Emperor Jianwen is dead
Only then can we climb the God's Monument justifiably
So we can't infer from this
Did Emperor Jianwen die in the flames?
Confirmed records cannot find a definite answer
Hence the many folklore
Then in these legends
Can we find out where Emperor Jianwen came down?
Where are the clues?
Emperor Jianwen
what is he
What kind of result?
Because I don't know where he is
Say it differently
Hence the many legends
The whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen became a historical event in China.
One of the most famous historical colonies
what we can see today
This is also recorded in many histories.
explain
The Yan army has invaded Nanjing
Emperor Jianwen saw that the general situation was over.
After he kills Professor Xu Zong?
set a fire in the palace
At this time, he was going to commit suicide
The eunuch next to him told him
explain
Your Majesty, don't kill yourself, don't
Emperor Taizu when he died
once left a thing
Said to wait until you encounter disaster
you can take it out
So take out a box
It is said that this box was made by Liu Bowen back then
Specially reserved for this Emperor Jianwen to take refuge
Of course it's all legends
So I opened the box
open it
What's inside this is weird
what is it
a cassock
cassock worn by monks
a razor
for shaving
a dudian
Father Du is the identity card of a monk.
How complete do you see
monk's clothes
The monk's ID card even has something to shave his head
It seems like I knew there was going to be such a disaster
happened the same
There's a note below that tells what to do
ah
Give this Emperor Jianwen
after shaved
Doesn't he need a legal name?
as a monk's name?
call english
and just speak english
from
The ghost gate of the palace goes out
other people
down the sewer channel
leave the court
So what about Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen
At once
Hastily shaved in the palace
Put on cassock and take Du Dian
He left the palace through the gate of hell
In fact, the gate of ghosts is not the gate of the palace.
He is only he is only a channel
after going out
It's outside
I saw the Taoist priest who came to greet him
Taoist said
Emperor Taizu entrusted me with a dream yesterday
let me pick you up here
Ah, so he took Emperor Jianwen away
These are all legends
Everyone finds it unbelievable
Yeah, why are these things happening?
but one thing
it's hard for us to deny
which point
Is there really such an emergency for him?
such a box
Everybody knows
Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne
Zhu Yuanzhang is very worried
because he is young
personality
At this time, the matter of strong feudal vassals outside has already taken shape
Place
When Zhu Yuanzhang was dying, he also asked him to
Mei Yin, the captain's son-in-law, said something
Said that the king of Yan must not be ignored
In this situation
prepare him a back road
It's not absolutely impossible
Then if there is such a situation
Emperor Jianwen really left the palace
So what will happen next?
no one will know
we won't know
not recorded in history books
Folklore
right
It's hard for us to know what will happen to him in the future
Of course the most legendary
The most common saying is that Emperor Jianwen went to Yunnan
he went southwest
Therefore
It also leads to some wild history records
Some records say
Annan
This is today's Vietnam
I once ran into a supervisor problem on the road
After a few words
This official let Emperor Jianwen go
Emperor Jianwen said that I am leaving, what should you do?
Yeah, you just saw me and let me go
The official said it's ok
The minister has his own disposal
i can handle it
right? tonight
Just killed himself in the station
these are legends
Is there such a thing?
No
We can check on these officials
no such thing happened
these are legends
That is to say, did Emperor Jianwen go?
We don't know this generation in Yunnan
40 years later
what time has it come
It's the time of Ming Yingzong
It's time for Zhu Di's great-grandson to become emperor
after so many years
Everyone is still thinking about this
At this moment, someone came out to make trouble
right
Everyone couldn't guess what the result would be.
Someone came out to make trouble
there is a person
He called himself Emperor Jianwen
went to the government
Say I am Emperor Jianwen
This government dare not neglect
I found Emperor Jianwen
Hurry up and get someone to send it to Beijing
sent to the palace
Are we at the palace?
When it comes to verifying this matter?
This censor ah first interrogation
found something wrong
Is it because of Emperor Jianwen?
He was born in the tenth year of Hongwu
By this time, he was only in his 60s.
But this person claims to be 90 years old
i'm 90 years old
don't want to die outside
I want to be buried next to my grandfather's this uh
Isn't his grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang?
Is it buried next to Zhu Yuanzhang's Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum?
right
there are these sayings
The censor found out it was a fake at the first trial.
right
what about this person
It's a man named Yang Xingxiang
he pretended
Emperor Jianwen's deception was soon exposed
Interesting yes
After this deception is exposed
Many people still don't believe
tell him it's a scam
right
Emperor Jianwen should be in his 60s, he is 90, that's not the case
And this person has a name and surname, his name is Yang Xinxiang, it's a fake
Can this be explained clearly?
Some say he is fake
I heard that among the monks who accompanied him
one is true
Continue to edit
That monk is Emperor Jianwen
I heard that eunuchs were asked to identify
Right? At first the eunuch refused to admit it.
Then the monk said
Why don't you admit it?
Back then I ate goose in the palace
dropped that goose to the ground
You lie on the ground and eat it directly with your mouth
do you remember this
Right, the eunuch burst into tears when he heard that
You know, this is the real Emperor Jianwen
but dare not say
What about this?
The real Emperor Jianwen was kept in the palace
until the end
He died and was buried in Xishan, Beijing
Unrestricted
Why don't you close it?
No seal means no bumblebee
If you don't tie up, you don't erect a monument
Why don't you seal it up?
because I can't find it
Say it's closed
Where can I find a Suzuki?
It's all made up by people
there are no such things
Why do you make up so many
it's not a real story
I think there should be three reasons
first reason
Although Zhu Yongren lost the throne
But everyone knows he's not a bad emperor
He is not a cruel and fatuous emperor
but a kind and gentle person
yeah he's a nice guy
so everyone
hope he lives
second sympathy for the weak
he is weak
Yeah, it's easy for people to sympathize with the weak
Such a weakling was killed in one fell swoop.
It's hard for everyone to accept
So everyone made up stories about him becoming king
then the third
After Zhu Di ascended the throne
It is a very brutal autocratic politics
despotism
killed many people
So everyone is dissatisfied with Zhu Di's actions
Also began to fabricate the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
so what
There are many legends about the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
Compared with the harsh rule of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di
During the reign of Emperor Jianwen, he practiced leniency and righteousness
So his experience aroused the sympathy of countless people
His whereabouts are particularly curious
in various unofficial dramas
You can see people's endless speculation and deduction
if say these
Legends are just people's fabrications without basis
So did Emperor Jianwen die in the palace?
Or in exile?
for this historic
What is the opinion of Merchant Shipping Online?
What is the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen?
Now
Historians
to us
people who do Ming history research
Most scholars believe
Emperor Jianwen did not die in the palace
not burned to death
he did leave the palace
most people think so
Some scholars
think he just burned
Ah, the point of view is different
then if we say
he didn't burn
ran away
what basis do you have
How can you say he wasn't burned to death in the palace?
So
Didn't Zhu Di come out of the fire with a dead body?
so who is this corpse
I also have some scholars who think
this corpse
Queen Ma, Empress of Emperor Jianwen
it's his dead body
Not the body of Emperor Jianwen
At that time there was no such forensic identification.
I won't do this appraisal either.
So this matter was
mistakenly point out that he is
Emperor Jianwen has a political purpose
well then why do you say he didn't burn to death
What is the basis?
Everybody knows
After Zhu Di ascended the throne
There was an important event
Zheng He's Voyages to the West
How is Zheng He recorded in history books
What about the Western incident?
how did he record it
he said so
he said
Chengzu Yu Huidi
Overseas
of the trace
Cheng Zu is Zhu Di
He suspected that Emperor Hui was Emperor Jianwen
Falling overseas means going overseas
want to find his whereabouts
Yu Zongjie knew he was on the way out
You see, so Zheng He was sent to the West
this is one of the reasons
Another sentence is more clear
Rumor has it that Emperor Jianwen fell into the sea
The emperor dispatched the ministers to govern and several times the blessings of the sea.
very clearly recorded
at that time
I no longer know the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
And obviously Zhu Di understands in his heart
It was not Emperor Jianwen who died in the palace
The whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen are unknown
So someone must be sent to find
this is the first reason
second reason
You know what we just said
When Zhu Di led the army to attack Nanjing?
Two men opened the gates and surrendered
Zhu Di introduced the Yan army to Nanjing
One of them is the ancient king Zhu Hui
Where is the ancient king Zhu Zhuhui?
Although he followed this Emperor Jianwen in Nanjing
But what happened after he surrendered to Zhu Di?
Gained the trust of Zhu Ji
But the question is
these vassals
Their conflict with Emperor Jianwen
It is the conflict between the prince and the emperor
Then wait until Zhu Di becomes emperor
he still has this paradox
he is still king
You Zhu Di is the emperor now
He still has a conflict between the vassal and the emperor
So Zhu Di also disappeared later
Right, let's not talk about it here
Then there is a contradiction between them
So it triggered the 15th year of Yongle
This case of ancient kings and taboos happened
something happened
He wants to rebel
what is his reason
The old king reasoned that I was going to make trouble
why make trouble
there is such a sentence
He said that I first met Wen Jun when I opened the Jinchuan Gate in previous years
Back then, everyone knew that I opened the Jinchuan Gate
i am not surrendering
I opened the Jinchuan Gate to release Emperor Jianwen.
gold in bottom
Now it's in my palace
I will be Shen Dayi
I mean justice
right
Why do you seize the throne from others?
The incident is increasing
I'm about to start an accident
This ancient king must be talking nonsense
Because the one in his mansion is not Emperor Jianwen
he is talking nonsense
But this incident gave us a revelation
He is the party
He went through the whole incident
he went through the event
If it was true that Emperor Jianwen was burned to death there
What's the use of him saying these words?
obviously not dead
He can use this to speak
He has nothing to say about the Buddha's words
This is the second reason
third reason
Everyone remember there is another
A monk who helped Zhu Di conquer the world
Taoist monk
right zhu
After Di was enthroned and became emperor,
gave him a good position
Trust, right?
And give him a vulgar name called Yao Guangxiao
Is this Yao Guangxiao?
I have been helping Zhu Di conquer the world
Zhu Di trusts him very much.
arrive
The second year after the incident of ancient king Zhu Hui
It is the sixteenth year of Yongle
Yao Guanming is critically ill
critically ill
Zhu Di came to visit him
ask him if he has anything else to say
This Yao Guangxiao said
say apucha
been imprisoned for a long time
can you let it out
Who is this Pucha?
is a monk
Legend has it that he shaved Emperor Jianwen
He shaved Emperor Jianwen
Emperor Jianwen ran away after he was shaved
so this monk
Because of being involved in this case
has been detained
if this is not the case
The cooling emperor was burned to death
Then what are you doing with this Pucha?
what are you doing with him
Obviously, this thing has shadows
ah
Yao Guangxiao asked Zhu Di
release poucha
Zhu Di agreed
Yao Guangxiao got up and thanked
When it's over, fall down and die
Um
Then the next day, Zhu Di ordered his subordinates to be released.
The fact that Pucha was suppressed
It means that the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen are unknown to everyone.
close him
I also want to know the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen from him.
through these things
We can see that
At that time, I really didn't know where Jiang Li had gone.
Obviously did not die in the big job in the palace
Then Zhu Di won't worry.
He has to keep looking for it.
He sent one of his side
a trustworthy official
this official
At that time, it was just an official named Ji Shizhong
Dozens is a very low-level official
Only Zongqipin
Everyone knows the Seven-Pin Sesame Official
That's still the seventh grade
Is it right?
even lower level
But because he is in six subjects
In several generations, he was a Jin minister beside the emperor
officials close to the emperor
right so
Zhu Di sent him to find the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen.
It can't be said that he went to find Emperor Jianwen.
Who are you looking for?
Looking for Zhang Sanfeng
Legend has it that there is a master of Taijiquan
Master Zhang Sanfeng?
go to Zhang Sanfeng
Because I am looking for Zhang Sanfeng
Zhang Sanfeng is a
Reclusive tall man
so have to run all over
Dajiang, Shanhe and temples can be found in various places
Right?
You go to the temples in the deep mountains and old forests to find
what do you mean
Is that right? I'm looking for Zhang Sanfeng.
Just go to these places to find
This wasp, this man
Ordered to find Zhang Sanfeng
I have been looking for most of my life
been looking everywhere
From a few lifetimes of vertical seven ranks
I have been searching and searching to find my official
The servant who has been promoted to the third rank
Minister of Rites
said still looking
just found it
Yongle twenty-one years
Yongle twenty-one years
Butterfly
visit all over
deep mountain forest
ran back to Beijing
I didn't see Zhu Di when I arrived in Beijing
Zhu Di has led his troops to the expedition
Hu Fei quickly chased him
It is clearly recorded in the history books
After seeing Zhu Di
He is Zhu Di in his own
met him in the tent
Two people
Talked all night with the lights on
Four shares are out
it's almost dawn
Butterfly just came out
what are you talking about
don't know no one knows what they're talking about
There is no record of their conversation in the history books
but the historian
I felt it from a little subtle change later
The content of their conversation is related to the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
why
Because after he spoke this time,
Zhu Di announced immediately
No longer trace the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
return field shovel
Hey, give them this Emperor Jianwen
Those who survived
those who were killed or convicted
The confiscated land property of the official's family is returned to the land property
don't pursue this matter anymore
So the historian commented
Said it must have something to do with Emperor Jianwen
And must have known the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
or die
or
Although he is not dead, he will never threaten again.
Zhu Di's throne
Zhu Di can rest assured
think about it
he tensed this nerve
I have been looking for Emperor Wen for so many years
21 years
How many years has he been emperor? 22 years
actually he knew
After the news of the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
no months
not a year
he died
Therefore, many historians believe that
This thing really reflects
At that time, it was about the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen.
As soon as his tense nerves relax
He was not in good health
he can rest assured that he is dead
very interesting thing
So is there a possibility that
Butterfly
This time I came to report to him that I found Emperor Jianwen
I sent someone to kill him
unlikely
Because of the man Fly
The reputation in the history books is not very bad
Don't see him go around as a spy
But he's not a bad guy
So the possibility of killing Emperor Jianwen is not great
The whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen until today
we can't say yet
But with the development of history
As more and more people study
Will it be possible to solve this historical mystery?
Yeah, it's not absolutely impossible
Zhu Di this person
did do something that baffles us
He searched everywhere for the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen
send this send that
But there is one thing that is very simple, did you think of it?
what must be done he didn't
Do
what's the matter
So many officials around Emperor Jianwen
So many people who are so close to Emperor Jianwen
After Zhu Di seized the throne and became emperor
why not interrogate them
go
Did you find traces of Emperor Jianwen's whereabouts from their mouths?
he didn't do it
Why
There are clear records in the history books
how do you remember
let's talk next time
thank you all

However, during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty
