Is Zhu Yunwen really dead?

No matter how dark Judy, the founding emperor of Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yunwen, the emperor of Wen Jian, the second emperor of Ming Dynasty could not be erased. His father, Zhu Biao, was the eldest son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He was made a prince in his early years and unfortunately died young in middle age. According to the feudal etiquette tradition, Zhu Yuanzhang named Zhu Yunwen the great-grandson of the emperor. Zhu Yuanzhang was 2 1 year old when he died. After he succeeded to the throne, he changed "Hongwu" to "Wen Jian", which was called "Emperor Jianwen" in history. Zhu Yunwen's biggest mistake was to ignore his grandfather's ability. Zhu Yuanzhang has done enough work for him to be a stable emperor. It can be said that as long as Zhu Yunwen does not move, his throne will be as stable as Mount Tai. But Xiong Haizi thinks he is smart, insists on overthrowing Zhu Yuanzhang's painstaking efforts and fooling around by himself. If he doesn't lose, it is unreasonable. Specifically, in addition to cutting vassals, another big mistake of Zhu Yunwen was to drastically change the patriarchal clan system, eagerly improve the status of civil servants, and belittle military commanders, so that most local military attaché s took a cold look at this royal infighting. So just four years later, he was overthrown by his fourth uncle, Rebecca Judy, and the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian after he stepped down became an eternal mystery.

Because Judy was killed in the palace, after Judy entered the palace, she searched for the whereabouts of the emperor Wen Jian for three days. The attendants in the palace said that Emperor Wen Jian set himself on fire and dragged a charred body out of the fire to prove it. When the prince saw the body, he couldn't tell the difference between men and women. It was terrible. After he succeeded to the throne, he had to "bury Wen Jian" with the son of heaven. The main source of this story is based on the records of Yongle period and the draft of Ming Dynasty. After Wen Jian acceded to the throne, he decided to separate himself from Qi Taihe, the minister of war, and Huang Zicheng, the emperor of Dachangqing. Judy, the prince of Yan, immediately led his troops south, and launched the "Battle of Jingnan" under the banner of Jun Qing. In less than four years, the prince crossed the Yangtze River and arrived at the gates of Nanjing. His peace was not allowed, so he had to stick to it, but his coach, Li Jinglong, opened the Jinchuan Gate to welcome the Prince's army into the city, and the Manchu officers and men surrendered in succession. Seeing that the tide was gone, Emperor Wen Jian had to order the palace to burn down, and suddenly the fire burst into flames. Wen Jian and his queen Ma Shi jumped into the fire and set themselves on fire, and most of his concubines and followers died with him ... This view is held in Ming History and Ming History Fang Xiaoru Biography.

I always thought this possibility was the greatest, because at that time, Enemy at the Gates and the Yan army surrounded the Forbidden Palace, and it was too late for him to escape, what's more, there was no gate of hell or imperial ditch to escape through the exam. Emperor Wen Jian also knew that his fourth uncle was an insatiable and ruthless warrior. If he falls into his hands, it will never come to a good end. Might as well be dead. Judy, the prince of Yan, will never let her life go on, otherwise, she will not be an emperor. In order not to leave the notoriety of "killing nephews to seize the throne", Judy deliberately took pains to find the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian, leaving a historical mystery, which may be Judy's original intention.

However, a recent news has caused a hot search for the theory that Emperor Jianwen cut his hair and became a monk. Chutian Metropolis Daily reported on July 18 (Reporter Xu Ying correspondent Fan Zhiyi Intern Long July 18, Hubei Provincial Library was full of books. The 10th Hubei Genealogy Festival, which has attracted the attention of genealogists all over the world, was held in Hubei Library. In this photo album, there are two genealogies of the Jean family, which are compiled in 198 1 and 20 12 respectively, which are of great historical and cultural value. Zhu Yunwen, the grandson of Wen Jian, Ming Taizu, disappeared after the rebellion of Judy, the prince of Yan. The mystery is solved in these two genealogies. According to the records on the spectrum, Qin Luan, the ancestor of Qin, was actually Zhu Yunwen, the emperor of Wen Jian in Ming Dynasty. Judy, the prince of Yan, escaped from the tunnel and hid among the residents when she rebelled. He abdicated with the words "Jean" and "Luan" and changed his name. Emperor Wen Jian traveled around the world, married and had children, and lived comfortably. In his later years, he settled in Hubei, leaving a descendant here, that is, letting his family follow him. Mr. Chang Peter, a well-known expert in books and documents, once served as the director of the Special Collection Department of the Central Library and the director and deputy director of the Books and Documents Department of the National Palace Museum in Taiwan, and prefaced 198 1 In the preface, he fully discussed the reason why Zhu Yunwen, the ancestor of the Jean family, was the emperor of Wen Jian, and spoke highly of this genealogy.

If this genealogy is true, then the theory that Emperor Wen Jian cut his hair and became a monk will find conclusive evidence for his whereabouts. It is recorded in Ming Shi Yao Zhuan and Hu Meng Zhuan that after claiming to be emperor, he became suspicious of his death by self-immolation. Someone told him that the charred body was true, and the emperor fled from home. He arrested Pu QIA, a master of records in Wen Jian, and put him in prison for more than ten years, forcing him to give up the whereabouts of Wen Jian. He also sent Zheng He to the Western Seas to "pursue" and sent Hu Ying to the counties and towns in 16 to search for the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian. Until one night a year before Judy died, he had fallen asleep, but when he heard that Hu Ying was back, he quickly put on his clothes and called him to the bedroom alone. Hu Meng found that after leaving the Forbidden City, Wen Jian cut his hair and became a monk. Instead of being optimistic, he took refuge in the southwest and southeast, but was rescued by monk Pu Qia and has been hiding in Luopu Temple in Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province. Since then, I have been a monk with one heart and no intention of rejuvenating the country. In recent years, Xu Zuosheng, a fan of Ming history, also pointed out through consulting a large number of documents and on-the-spot investigation that in the 21st year of Yongle (1423), Emperor Wen Jian died in Qiongyuan Mountain, Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province, at the age of 46, and was buried on the back hillside of Huangjiaan. Maybe he got married during the escape of Emperor Wen Jian. I still hope that the blood of Zhujiajian Mansion has been lost in my own hands, because it is impossible to get back what Grandpa taught the country, so it is natural to carry on the family line.

The folk rumors are even more absurd, and the stories are vividly compiled. Lu Anshi, a celebrity in Qing Dynasty, and Cai Dongfan, a close friend, believed that after the Yan army broke the city, Emperor Wen Jian was helpless and wanted to die. At this time, the young warden Wang Yue told him: When your grandfather died, he left you an iron box for me to give to you when you were in trouble. I have kept it in Fengxian Hall in secret. Ministers quickly picked up the box and opened it. There are three official books in it, which are monks' identity cards with the names of three people, including Wen Jian. There are three robes, a razor, ten ingots of platinum, and a suicide note. The book says: "Emperor Wen Jian went out from the gate of hell, and others went out from Shuiguan Yugou. In the evening, they will meet in the optimistic west room of God. " On this basis, three of his men shaved their heads, put on hateful clothes, and only took nine people to the gate of hell. The ghost gate is at the emergency exit, which is a small low gate in the inner city. Only one person was allowed in and out of this waterway, and Emperor Wen Jian bent down and walked out of the gate of hell. After the other eight people went out of the gate of hell, they saw a boat parked on the waterway. A monk stood on the boat and told them to board, and bowed to Emperor Wen Jian and said, Long live. Emperor Wen Jian asked him how he knew I was in trouble. The monk replied, "My name is Wang Sheng, and I am the optimistic abbot of God. I dreamed of your grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang last night. He is a monk. " At this time, it seems that Emperor Wen Jian has cut his hair into a monk and inherited his ancestral business. However, there is still a certain possibility, because Zhu knows the cruelty of his four sons, and his old man's house is also very considerate, giving his grandson a day to live. However, there is no record in the Ming history, and it can only be invented by the Qing people later.

However, Judy drove away her nephew, and the official history when Yongle came to power covered up the title of Wen Jian, artificially extending Ming Taizu's rule for four years, that is, from the year of relic of an emissary to the thirty-fifth year of Hongwu (1399- 1402): this period was once called "the period of moving the capital" by historians. Emperor Wanli restored the title of Wen Jian in 1595 10, which was put forward as part of the plan to compile the Ming history of abortion. However, it was not until July 1644, 242 years later, that Zhu Yousong (who died in 1646), the monarch of the Southern Ming Dynasty, decided that the temple name of Zhu Yunwen was "Hui Zong" and posthumous title was "Emperor Jean".

It's just about gene's family tree. Let's take a look at some evidence left by this family tree:

If this genealogy is true, then the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian will be very clear. Ouyang, a group of Yichang past events, has always believed that genealogy is the most reliable information outside the official history. Last year, he spent all his money on a large number of genealogies. It is worth learning from our descendants, not only to find history from the official history, but also to dig up the historical truth from the genealogy. This is also an important way to learn history!

Is Zhu Yunwen really dead? Asking anyone now, including the so-called experts in Ming history, can't answer this question, because no one in Ming history knows where he went.

According to Ming History, Gu and Li Jinglong rebelled and captured it, and the capital fell. When there was a fire in the palace, the emperor didn't know what to do. The prince sent the queen's body to burn. On the eighth day, he refused to apply for burial.

Wen Jian was described in nine words in the Ming Dynasty. "The palace was on fire, and the emperor didn't know what to do." At that time, Judy's Yan soldiers attacked Nanking, and his uncle Gu Wang and general Li Jinglong defected. They opened the gate and let Yan Bing in. At that time, the palace caught fire, and the emperor Wen Jian disappeared. Judy, the prince of Yan, only found Wen Jian's body in the fire, and then buried it by reburial.

However, it is also recorded in the Ming Dynasty that Wen Jian escaped from the tunnel. In the fifth year of Ming Yingzong's orthodoxy in A.D. 1440, a monk went from Yunnan to Guangxi, calling himself Emperor Wen Jian. In other words, Emperor Wen Jian may have escaped from the tunnel of the palace and then became a monk among the people.

Judy's succession, including Zheng He's seven voyages to the Western Seas, was all related to the search for Wen Jian. As for whether Emperor Wen Jian is dead, no one knows. However, most people tend to think that Emperor Wen Jian escaped, but he did not enter modern times. Personally, I also tend to escape from the palace. I should hide in the people and spend my life safely.

If she really dies, Judy may not move the capital, nor will she let Zheng He go to the Western Seas in a big way. There must be a reason for this. It was because Emperor Wen Jian didn't die that Judy took the position of emperor, which made him sleepless and always wanted to find and kill him. If one day, Wen Jian is still alive, it will be very troublesome to come back and take this position. However, until Judy died, he was never found. Because of this, some people say that he may be dead, so he can't be found.

Even if Emperor Wen Jian had not died at that time, he could not have rebelled again. The prince has occupied the capital, and without the military power, the rebellion will be a dead end. It is better to remain anonymous and enjoy his old age. Why not?
