In 1402, King Zhu Di of Yan usurped the throne.
Conquer Nanjing City
Rumor has it that we have searched the entire palace.
Emperor Jianwen was nowhere to be found
You need to meet someone for this job
I want to see the corpse after death.
Finally, Zhu Di announced that there was a secret passage in the palace
Emperor Jianwen
With the prince Zhu Wenkui, he had escaped through the secret passage with his cronies.
History is always written by the victors
Regardless of the reason for the usurpation
And Zhu Di
After all, he is an emperor with a dishonorable reputation.
And Zhu Yunwen is still his nephew
If he really drove Emperor Jianwen to death
In the eyes of the world
That's too cruel and ruthless
So many historians have speculated
Zhu Di, the founder of Ming Dynasty, lied about this matter
Emperor Jianwen may not have escaped from Nanjing.
After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty
while slowly
Eradicate the powerful founding fathers
On the one hand, he granted vassal status to his sons
The power of the vassal king in the vassal territory is very great
Although nominally not allowed to interfere in local affairs
But they have their own palace and army
And the number of troops
Recruitment depends entirely on the lord's own strength.
Among the 25 vassal kings conferred by Zhu Yuanzhang
Zhu Di, king of Yan, and Zhu Gang, king of Jin, are the most powerful
They each have 100,000 troops
One of them is guarding Beijing
One is to guard Shanxi
The Ming Dynasty had a vast territory
At the beginning of the establishment of the regime
The situation in many border areas is unstable
Especially the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty
Zhu Yuanzhang conducted 13 Northern Expeditions before and after
It is impossible to completely eliminate hidden dangers
so
The greatest role of the vassals was to guard the borders
In this place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away
Zhu Yuanzhang as a suspicious emperor
The only one I can trust is my own son
When there is a crisis at the border
The feudal king will send troops to suppress
Actual power
Still bigger than local officials
The feudal king also has another role
That is to check and balance the meritorious nobles
The beginning of the Ming Dynasty
Zhu Yuanzhang said to the brothers who fought with him
Distribution of merit and rewards
A total of 65 Gongbohous were granted the title of
The so-called sharing of adversities
Gou Fugui, these 65 people
Different personalities
There are those who think they are superior to others.
Some people feel that the reward is disrespectful
Those who surrender halfway are not loyal and brave men.
These founding fathers
Most of them were also expelled to various places
To take charge of some local affairs
If there is no feudal king by their side to supervise
It is estimated that Zhu Yuanzhang could not sleep well at night
I'm afraid that someone will collude with the Yuan army
Against him again
Zhu Yuanzhang played such a big game of chess
What I want is for all the vassal kings and brothers to be united
Support Prince Zhu Biao in the future
Consolidate the Ming Dynasty
The Zhu family's regime will last forever
The twenty-fifth year of Hongwu
Prince Zhu Biao passed away
The feudal king is eagerly awaiting
Especially King Yan and King Jing
everyone is thinking
The new prince will choose between the two of them
result
Zhu Yuanzhang's choice surprised everyone
He made Zhu Biao's son Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson
At this time, although King Yan and King Jin were dissatisfied,
But it was taken from the majesty of Zhu Yuanzhang
It’s hard to say anything
Thirty-one years of Hongwu
Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of Ming Dynasty, passed away
Emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne
Called Emperor Jianwen
Emperor Jianwen
In fact, he is a gentle person
A knowledgeable person
But why after becoming emperor?
Then I started to operate on my uncles.
Strongly cut down the vassal
First of all, it was his lack of confidence as a young emperor.
Compared to the feudal lords
Regardless of seniority, merit or talent,
These uncles are all above him
Although he is the Ninety-Five Supreme
But he is also a junior
Always a homebody
What do the kings think?
Even Zhu Yuanzhang can control it
But when we got to Emperor Jianwen,
But that’s not necessarily the case
Zhu Yunwen became emperor
Can't see family affection
only saw
The uncles' naked threat to his throne
On the other hand
When Zhu Yuanzhang was in power
Almost all the powerful ministers with swordsmanship were killed.
He did not give it to Emperor Jianwen
Leave some useful ministers behind
Fang Xiaoru, Qitai Huang Zicheng, who was favored by Emperor Jianwen
They are all a group of people who can only talk
A foolish minister who doesn't know how to strategize
They conspired to seize Jianwen Emperor Xue Fan
It ignited the fire in Zhu Yunwen's heart
But he can’t contribute any good plans
if not
Emperor Jianwen would not proceed from weak to strong.
Xue Fan saved the most powerful King Yan until the end
I have created the most powerful enemy for myself
The fifteenth year of Hongwu
Zhu Yuanzhang’s first wife, Queen Ma, passed away
The vassal kings from all walks of life returned to the capital to attend funerals.
Zhu Yuanzhang believed in Buddhism
He hired an eminent monk for each feudal king.
After letting them return to the domain,
Continue to pray for Queen Ma
This eminent monk next to King Yan
That's Yao Guangxiao
He is quite knowledgeable and strategic
He also has the same temperament as Zhu Di
So he went north with King Yan
From then on, the two of them kept in close contact
What does Yao Guangxiao think?
Zhu Di is an emperor's talent
You shouldn't be subordinate to others
He also introduced his friend Yuan Gong to Zhu Di
Where are these two people?
It can be regarded as the instigator of Zhu Di's usurpation of the throne.
Shortly before Zhu Yuanzhang died
King Qin and King Jin died successively
Among the feudal lords
Only the eldest King Yan is left
The most powerful
Zhu Yuanzhang on his deathbed
I am also worried that King Yan is too powerful
Affecting the status of the emperor's grandson
So he issued an edict
After he dies
There is no need for the vassal kings to return to Beijing for funerals
Less than a year after Zhu Yuanzhang died
Emperor Jianwen successively abolished the kings of Zhou and Min
King Xiang, King Qi, King Dai
five vassal kings
This greatly increased King Yan’s sense of crisis.
On the surface, the scheming Zhu Di
Secretly, he is working hard to strengthen his own strength.
Try to recruit talented people from all walks of life
Training day and night
The first year of Jianwen
Emperor Jianwen sent 300,000 troops to the Northern Expedition to King Yan
As a result, 9,000 people were annihilated by Zhu Di.
second month
Emperor Jianwen sent another 500,000 troops
Zhu Di personally led his army into battle and was defeated.
What about the war between uncle and nephew?
Played for four years
Historically known as the Battle of Jingnan
In the end, King Zhu Di of Yan conquered Nanjing City
The palace changed hands and ended
And what about Emperor Jianwen?
After learning about the fall of Nanjing
When Zhu Di was about to break into the palace
A fire set the palace on fire
Wait until Zhu Di breaks into the palace
Nothing but a pile of charred corpses
nothing
After searching the entire palace,
The bodies of Zhu Yunwen and the prince were missing
But I don’t rule out those burnt corpses.
There are them
but
They found Zhu Yunwen's second son, who was only two years old.
What about after Zhu Wengui and Zhu Di became emperor?
Declare it to the outside world
A secret passage was discovered inside the palace
Think about it
Emperor Jianwen must have brought the prince and a few cronies with him
Escaped from the secret passage
But what is puzzling is that
Same as running away
Why did you only bring your eldest son?
Why don't you bring your second son with you?
As a result, the two-year-old Zhu Wengui will spend the next 55 years
They were all imprisoned in Fengyang High Wall
Living a life of isolation
After that
There are rumors among the people
Someone said
Emperor Jianwen became a monk and became a monk
Some people also say
He changed his name to Rang
Let Escape Zhu Di's pursuit
Some people say that he fled to Chongqing area
In that era of limited information and transportation
The whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen on his escape route were so clear
I don’t know that Zhu Di, the founder of Ming Dynasty, knew this news.
Will they send someone to hunt him down?
After all, as long as Zhu Yunwen lives this day
Zhu Di's throne is not that secure
And these news?
Originally it was he, Ming Chengzu, who released it to confuse people.
There are also rumors
Emperor Jianwen fled to
He left Yunnan and defected to Prince Mu's Mansion.
What about Prince Mu’s Mansion in Yunnan?
The owner’s name is Mu Ying
Also called Zhu Wenying
He was the adopted son of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang
What about the early Ming Dynasty?
Mu Ying was credited with pacifying Yunnan
Was granted the title of Marquis of Xiping
Guarding Yunnan for generations
Future generations
You can take his place
Twelve generations of shogunate
Away from the struggles of the central court
High position and authority
Compared with Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang
Their ending is the best
But they are descendants of the Mu family
They were all very loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
Until the last generation of descendants Mu Tianbo
Died in Myanmar with Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang
Mu Ying lost her parents when she was 8 years old
become a beggar
Zhu Yuanzhang felt pity for his wife
He adopted him as his adopted son
Mu Ying is 11 years older than his son Zhu Biao
What a brotherly bond between these two.
It is unmatched by other princes
Plus
At that time, Zhu Biao was the most qualified successor.
He himself possesses all the good qualities of a wise king
So Mu Ying regarded him as his young master from the beginning
When Zhu Biao passed away
Mu Ying was also heartbroken when she learned the news.
Then I couldn't get sick anymore
In the end he died because of this
My favorite and trusted son and adopted son
died one after another
This is also a gift from the white-haired person to the black-haired person.
Zhu Yuanzhang was in great pain
So whether it’s about friendship or strength,
The shogunate was able to protect Zhu Yunwen
Of course the premise is
Zhu Yunwen was really able to escape to Yunnan smoothly
Many famous historians speculate that
Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen
Finally fled to Lion Rock in Wuding, Yunnan
Became a monk at Zhengxu Zen Temple on the mountain
It's because of Emperor Jianwen's relationship
Lion Rock is known as the first mountain in Southwest China
In Zhengxu Zen Temple
There is a couplet engraved on the pillars of the Main Hall
The first couplet is that the monk is the emperor
The emperor is also a monk
Passed down from generation to generation for decades
Zhengjue, fortunately, Huangjuejiu
The second line is sparse and straight.
Straightforward
Eight Hundred Miles Shoes Hiking Poetry
The mountain is higher than Yanshan Mountain
What does this couplet mean?
Couldn't be more obvious
Broken the uncle-nephew relationship
It also revealed the truth about Yanshan
It’s Yanwang Temple
There is also a Huidi Temple in the temple.
There are three Buddha statues sitting inside the temple.
The one in the middle is wearing a cassock
Back to dragon chair
It is said that he is Emperor Jianwen
Except for the couplet Buddha statues
Inside Zhengxu Temple
There are many relics related to Emperor Jianwen
For example, Longfeng Gubai Longyin'an Crescent Lake
Li Douge and so on
According to historical records
The young Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun
Ask his teacher Zhang Juzheng
Did Emperor Wen Jianwen flee the country at that time?
Zhang Juzheng’s answer was that national history is not a matter of concern.
But the old prime minister rumored that Emperor Jianwen should be the master of peace.
When entering the city, he shaves his hair and wears the Chinese characters
Get out of the tunnel
no one knows
to orthodox room
Call to Yunnan
A poem about Youbi
A sentence about falling into the rivers and lakes and dozens of hills
Once in a while, his intention was destroyed
Ask about it
The old monk sits on the ground without kneeling
Said I also return to the valley
The hometown is built by Yan Zhiwen
Censor Yiwen
Sui Yi issued an edict
The Liang family who entered the palace Yan
I am already seventy or eighty years old
Don't know where it will end
So, in the eyes of officials of the Ming Dynasty,
Emperor Jianwen fled to Yunnan that year
Remaining old at Lion Rock
But if we analyze the doubts carefully
There are quite a few
Meng Sen, a historian of the Republic of China
Ask questions in the National Examination
Chengzu’s life history is surprising
Lost in fire to verify earth system knowledge
Burial
Then why should we leave it to others?
Dispatch Hu Yingzheng and prepare for domestic and overseas operations
Transformation clinic for more than 20 years
Since Zhu Di knew that Emperor Jianwen went to Yunnan
Why are we searching for traces of him?
More than 20 years ago
Is this really a search?
Still have to cover up
The fact that Emperor Jianwen is no longer alive
A king of a country
We have spent more than 20 years trying our best to find someone.
Can't find it?
You must know that the fifteenth year of Hongwu
When Zhu Yuanzhang was in power?
The imperial court established the Jinyi Guards
Jinyiwei engages in reconnaissance, arrest, interrogation and other activities
He also participated in collecting military information
The work of instigating rebellion against enemy generals
It's like a secret service agency.
We see it in movies and TV shows
Whether it is martial arts or strategy, Jinyiwei
They are all first-class strong
Although it is not so exaggerated in reality
But his abilities must be beyond those of ordinary people.
There is such a sophisticated team that looks like instruments
It will take 20 years to find someone
Can't find it?
No one would believe it
So the truth
Maybe there's only one
That is Ming Chengzu
Lie to the world
Emperor Jianwen never escaped from the palace at all
I don’t know if he was buried in the fire or not.
But Zhu Di
He must know his life and death
What does he say to the outside world?
Emperor Jianwen escaped
He is worried that people in the world will think he is too ruthless
Not to mention usurping the throne
He also wanted to kill everyone regardless of family ties.
So every once in a while
He will order people to release some smoke bombs
Where are the footprints of Emperor Jianwen again?
Take the temple on Lion Mountain in Yunnan as an example
If Emperor Jianwen found a temple
Born secretly into the world
Would it be so blatant?
Write this kind of couplet with such obvious meaning in the temple
Will be high-profile and give myself the golden body of an emperor
He was afraid that others would not know that he was Emperor Jianwen
Are you worried that Zhu Di won't be able to find him?
If Emperor Jianwen just wanted to live
The most likely option is to remain anonymous.
If he still wants to return to the throne
It should be to unite with Prince Mu’s Mansion to cultivate their own power.
But what about these two?
He has none
Then why did he flee?
Is it just to let Zhu Di capture him again?
So all this
This is all a play performed by Zhu Di for the world
The real Emperor Jianwen
Probably already in Yan
The day when Wang conquered the city of Nanjing
He's no longer alive
Those in power in the current dynasty have always been hostile to the royal family.
Kangxi period
What is folklore?
The Third Prince of Ming Dynasty Appeared
Kangxi would send four groups to encircle and suppress
Kill them all
It’s already the Republic of China
Zhu Qianlong relied on his resemblance to Ming Taizu
I dreamed of becoming an emperor
There is never any friendship in front of the imperial power
How else to say it?
The most ruthless emperor's family
