Prediction of the demise of the Ming Dynasty: What do you mean, stop smoothly?

In the book "Classic of the Dynasty" edited by Dynasty Deng, this prediction was recorded: "The order of the high temple is a long-term plan." Wimbledon said, "When things are going well, stop."

Since then, the Ming Dynasty has experienced a series of major events, such as the battle of Jingnan, the political control, the change of civil fort and the reform of Zhang, and gradually moved from vigor to lethargy.

After Zhu Youjian, the 16th emperor of Ming Dynasty, succeeded to the throne, the national situation became out of control. Outside, the Qing dynasty has been eyeing the Ming dynasty in the northeast for decades, which may cause a fatal blow to the great dynasty at any time; Internally, the nationwide wave of popular resistance has reached a new climax. Faced with such a dilemma, the Ming Dynasty implemented the policy of "settling down first". In order to support the Northeast War, the emperor decided to implement the national policy of "better troops and simpler administration", one of which was to reduce the staff of post offices all over the country. This policy laid off many people in the Ming Dynasty, and Li Zicheng was one of them.

Li Zicheng established the Dashun regime.

Immediately after the establishment of the Dashun Dynasty, Li Zicheng invaded the East and attacked Beijing on March 17. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself. The Ming Dynasty was founded by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Taizu, from 1368 until Emperor Chongzhen committed suicide at the end of 1644. It lasted for 277 years, 23 years worse than what Liu Bowen said: Ming kings can be passed down from generation to generation for 300 years.

However, after the death of Emperor Chongzhen,1May 644, Ma Shiying, Shi Kefa, etc. Zhu Yousong, the axe king stationed in Nanjing, was appointed to set up a Hong Guang court in Nanming. Zhu Yousong, Emperor Nan Ming, is also the grandson of Emperor Wanli and the son of Zhu. Emperor Hong Guang was emperor for only one year. In May of the first year of Hong Guang (AD 1645), Hong Guang was forced to leave Wuhu. On May 15, Ministers Wang Feng and Qian surrendered to Nanking. On the 22nd, Zhu Yousong was arrested and executed in Beijing. The Hong Guang regime collapsed.

Since then, the Nanming Dynasty has experienced the Longwu regime, Shaowu regime, Wang Lu State Supervision regime and Li Yong regime in the Tang Dynasty.

Among these systems, the permanent system is the longest one. In a.d.1646,65438+10, Ding Kuichu, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty, and Qu Shizhen, governor of Guangxi, acclaimed Wang Gui Zhu Youlang and proclaimed himself emperor in Zhaoqing. He is also the grandson of Emperor Wanli of Ming Shenzong and the youngest son of Zhu Guigong. He led the remaining Ming army to resist the Qing Dynasty until A.D. 166 1. Later, Wu Sangui led the army into Myanmar, captured Zhu Youlang alive, and executed him in Kunming in April of the following year.

At this point, the Ming Dynasty lost its last hope. It is very accurate to calculate the so-called Ming Kingdom from 1368 to 16 1, which is only seven years away from Liu Bowen.

As for the prediction of the so-called "Yi Shi Zhi", the first "Yi" should be in Li's own Dashun Dynasty.

More interestingly, after Li Zicheng claimed to be "Emperor Shunzhi", another Qing emperor, Fu Lin, who was still far away from the customs, succeeded to the throne in 1643, and his title was also "Shunzhi"! He met another Shun in the Ming Dynasty. Another "Shun" is Zhang, who has dominated Sichuan for several years. He founded the Great Western Country, and his title, like Shunzhi, has a "Shun" and a "Dashun"!

At that time, the rulers did not have the people-oriented view, nor did they know that the implementation of the minimum living allowance policy could not make laid-off workers maintain the most basic life. So many people have to gather in the mountains to commit crimes in order to make a living after work. Li Zicheng, Zhang and others in the case of unemployment, unskilled and despair, in order to survive, raised the banner and started a vigorous resistance movement.

After more than ten years of struggle, in 1643 (the 16th year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty), Li Zicheng rebels captured Shanxi, opened Wuchang, established political power, and called themselves Xinshun King. 1644, in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng rebels captured Xi 'an, changed Xi 'an to Xijing, and Li Zicheng established Dashun Dynasty.

Liu Bowen, the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, predicted the first Shun in Shun Sui Zhi.

Like Zhang, he established the Daxi regime and held a great title.

The prophecy of "stop smoothly" is also an ancient prophecy, which has been circulated in the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years, so many people know this prophecy. Jiang Jianping, a famous historian, thinks in his book The Mystery of Ming History that the name of the dynasty founded by Li Zicheng was probably related to its strategist Song Xiance. According to historical records, Song Xiance was a short man, but he was "good at six noble men, strange escape and counting prophecies". Before Li Zicheng joined the army, he made a living by telling fortune and watching Feng Shui. When he met Li Zicheng, he wrote a so-called "prophecy" (probably an ancient prophecy), which contained a sentence: Eighteen sons, the main artifact. Obviously, the "eighteen sons" here refer to Li Zicheng, while the "artifact" refers to the supreme power, which means that Li Zicheng will be the emperor, which is of course very popular with Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng exultation, used as a strategist. According to Mr. Jiang Jianping's understanding, this person will naturally know Liu Bowen's prediction about the Ming Dynasty that "success will stop". Therefore, it is likely that he suggested that Li Zicheng name the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) "Dashun" to replace the Ming Dynasty. According to the Ming History, Li Zicheng believed in Song Xiance. Li Zicheng's "Dashun" probably originated from this.

The "Dashun" in Zhang Nian's title and the "Shun" in Shunzhi's title in Qing Dynasty may all come from this! Because their ultimate goal is the same, that is, they hope that the Ming Dynasty will "stop smoothly"!

The first the emperor shunzhi after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs.

In this way, Li Zicheng only overthrew a "shun" of the Ming Dynasty, and really let the Ming Dynasty "stop when it meets the shun". It finally ended the Ming dynasty by relying on the "Shun" outside the customs and the "Shun" and "Shun" of Zhang.
