What is the story of wangyi family in Ming Dynasty?

In the fifteenth year of Chenghua (1479), on the fourth day of the first month, Zhu Jianshen, the sixth son of Ming Xianzong, was born in the imperial palace in the capital (Beijing). Xianzong named this son Zhu Zuobing. His biological mother was Shao Shi, the imperial concubine of Emperor Chenghua, who gave birth to the fourth son Zhu Youti, the fifth son Zhu Zuoyun and the sixth son Zhu Zuobing. She was one of Xian Zong's favorite concubines in his early years (second only to Shiwan, the imperial concubine who spoiled the harem). Therefore, Zhu Zuobing's three brothers did not live a bleak childhood like their third brother Zhu Youtang, but grew up happily and safely in the palace.

In the twenty-third year of Chenghua (1487), in July, nine-year-old Zhu was conferred the title of Beneficial King by his father and emperor, and became Prince Daming in Jianchangfu, Jiangxi (now Nancheng County, Fuzhou, Jiangxi).

Two months later, in the 23rd year of Chenghua (1487), Emperor Chenghua died, and Zhu Youpeng's third brother, the ill-fated Crown Prince Zhu Youtang, succeeded to the throne, that is, Ming Xiaozong hongzhi emperor.

After Xiaozong succeeded to the throne, all the younger brothers stayed in the palace to be properly raised, and in Hongzhi four years (149 1), all the younger brothers (ninth brother Zhu Youyou, eleventh brother Zhu Youyou, twelfth brother Zhu Youyou, twelfth brother Zhu Youyou) were given titles. In the fifth year of Hongzhi (1492), Xiaozong issued a letter to the fourth brother Zhu, the fifth brother Zhu, the sixth brother Zhu Youbin, the seventh brother Wang Zhuyang Mian and the eighth brother Yongwang Zhu Youmin.

Beneficial Wang Zhu, sealed in Jianchangfu, Jiangxi (now Nancheng County, Fuzhou). As early as October of the 22nd year of Yongle (1424), Zhu Zuobing's great-grandfather Zhu Gaochi Mingrenzong (who died in Yumuchuan in July of that year and was succeeded by Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi) conferred the title of Zhu Zhanyong, his sixth son, as King of Jing, and Jianchang House as a clan of Jing State, and built a palace here for Zhu Zhanyong. However, in the first year of Hongxi (1425), Injong died less than 10 months after he became emperor, and the Crown Prince Zhu Zhanji inherited the Grand System, namely Ming Xuanzong. After Xuanzong ascended the throne, he continued to build palaces for his brothers in Guo Feng. In the fourth year of Xuande (1429), Jianchang Palace was successfully built. This year, Xuanzong sent his sixth brother Zhu Zhanyi to Jianchang to return home. Since then, Zhu Zhanyi has lived in Jianchang for seventeen years.

In the eighth year of orthodoxy (1443), when King Zhu Zhanyou went to Beijing by imperial edict to pay a visit to Yingzong, he thought that Jianchang Wang Fu was "living in a secluded house" and Jianchang House was "living in a secluded corner with occasional boils", so he wrote to Ming Yingzong, demanding to move to another place, and asked Yingzong exaggeratedly. Yingzong then agreed to his uncle's request and changed the kingdom of Fan Jing from Jianchang in Jiangxi to Huguang Qichun. In the tenth year of orthodoxy (1445), the new Fanjing House in Huguang was completed, and Zhu Zhanyou contentedly led his family, guards and officials to Qichun, while Jianchang Old Wang Fu was idle and uninhabited for decades.

In the 23rd year of Chenghua (1487), when Zhu was conferred the title of Beneficial King by Xianzong, and he chose to seal the country for him, Xianzong considered that there was no need to establish a vassal in an additional place, but only chose a suitable place on the vassal land that was left idle by the people of the former dynasty because of moving to the vassal or leaving the country without children, so as not to waste the country's financial and material resources. As a result, Zhu was named Jianchang, the old country of Zhu Zhanyou, the high ancestor of Jiangxi, and the old scenery was used as a useful, shortened construction period and avoided the waste of resources. (Similarly, Zhu Youti, the fourth brother of Zhu Youbing who sealed the king together, promoted Zhu Youti to be king and sealed the country, which was the old vassal country left by Zhu Dong, the twenty-four sons of Mao, after his death. And this fief, in the hands of Zhu Youjue, has changed hands. )

In the eighth year of Hongzhi (1495), Wang Fu, Jianchangyi, was renovated. In September of that year, 17-year-old Zhu Youbing bid farewell to his mother Shao and his younger brother Xiaozong and went to Jiangxi to become a vassal. The history of Daming Fan Yi began.

Zhu Renbing was an extremely rare existence among the princes in the Ming Dynasty. He is simple in nature and keeps a low profile. Since I came to Jianchang to be a vassal, I have basically stayed indoors on weekdays, reading and writing, playing the piano and being quiet. The requirements for materials are also particularly low. Clothes, shoes and hats are washed and washed until they are white and worn out. Vegetables and tofu are mostly used in daily diet, so they are more frugal. Compared with other overbearing, extravagant and lecherous princes in feudal China, Zhu Zuobing, a beneficial king, can be described as "loving the people", "a model of imperial clan" and a model of a virtuous king.

Under Zhu Youbing's example, most Yifan people are quiet and introverted. Since the establishment of Changfu, they have lived quietly in the city according to the ancestral system. They have never made any unreasonable demands on local officials and people, and they have also done some evil things to search for places to disturb the people. Therefore, Yi Fanzong's reputation in Jianchang Mansion is very good, and His Royal Highness wangyi is also very prestigious, winning the unanimous respect and admiration of officials and villagers.

In the eighteenth year of Hongzhi (1505), Wang Yizhu died by Zhu Youtang, the brother of C, and Zhu Houzhao, the crown prince, succeeded him, namely Ming Wuzong. Wuzong Hip-hop has done whatever it wants all its life, handling political affairs like a runaway wild horse, which makes civil servants stunned and helpless, and is unable to stop and oppose it because of the loyalty of Confucianism to the monarch. This is simply a matter of life. Spent 16 years in pain and madness.

In the sixteenth year of Zheng De's reign (152 1), Wu Zongjia, who lived a wild life, died in Beijing. He had no children or brothers before his death, which cut off the imperial system in the Ming Dynasty.

Under the authorization of Empress Zhang Xiaokang, Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian, Mao Ji and others, the mothers of Wu Zongsheng, who presided over cabinet affairs, began to discuss the system of welcoming foreign vassals to the throne and selecting a new emperor for Daming. Those who are eligible to be elected as heirs are the direct descendants of Xianzong, the grandfather of Wuzong.

Since Wu Zong has no children or brothers, Daming's throne can only be selected from his cousin's blood. At that time (16 years of Zheng De), Xianzong was in a vassal position, and the living descendants were:

Xing Fan: Xing Shizi Zhu Houzong (Xing Wangxian Zhu Youti died in the 14th year of Zhengde, and the children of the Shizi are still in mourning and have never inherited the title of Xing Fan).

Fan Yi: Yi Shizi Zhu Houxuan, Chongren Wang Zhu Houye, Wang Jinxi Zhu Houhuang, Yushan Wang Zhu Houyi.

Heng Fan: Wang Jianghua Zhu Houxie, Wang Yutian Zhu Houhydrocarbon, Wang Xinle Zhu Houxuan, Gaotang Wang Zhu Houtang, Qidong Wang Zhu Hou Bing, Shaoling Wang Zhu Houtang, Hanyang Zhu Houfu (fire word bottom).

Rong Fan: Rong Shizi Zhu Houge, Funing Wang Zhu Houxi, Hui Wang 'an Zhu Houxu, Wang Yongchun Zhu Houtang, Wang Fucheng Zhu Houran, Guixi Wang Zhu Houzeng (fire word bottom)

According to the stipulation that "brothers are brothers" in Ming Taizu's Zuxun, Zhu Houzong, the fourth son of Xianzong who was in mourning, was named the heir of Xiaozong and the younger brother of Wuzong because of his "closest ranking", and finally inherited the Ming Dynasty, namely Emperor Jiajing of Ming Shizong.

According to Yang Tinghe's original intention, since Sejong is Xing's only son, Xing will face the situation of being the heir. Therefore, the civil servants headed by Yang Tinghe suggested to Sejong who acceded to the throne that Zhu Houye, the second son of his sixth uncle Zhu Wang, should be chosen as the successor of Xing, just as Sejong adopted Xiao Zong, so that he could inherit and offer Xing Xian.

However, although Sejong is young, he is extremely sophisticated, thoughtful, determined and shrewd. He flatly rejected the seemingly well-intentioned suggestions of civil servants and proudly declared himself the heir of Xing. Why did he adopt an outsider as his father's son? Because of the status of this heir, there was a fierce conflict between Sejong and the auxiliary ministers, which lasted for more than three years. In the end, imperial power gained the upper hand. Sejong firmly grasped the loopholes of "brothers are brothers and sisters" and "the order of inheritance should stand" in Wuzong's testamentary edict, and firmly believed that he was the eldest grandson of Xianzong. After his cousin Wuzong died, he automatically obtained the right to inherit the throne according to the principle of "the order of inheritance comes first", instead of becoming the son of Xiaozong through adoption.

With Sejong's all-out suppression and unremitting efforts, the civil service forces were completely defeated and beaten to pieces by Sejong's shrewd political skills, and they could no longer threaten the imperial power. Sejong thus established complete control over the Ming kingdom, regarded his father, King Zhu Youti, as the emperor, and placed the memorial tablet in the ancestral temple for worship. This is the famous "Grand Ceremony" event in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

If civil servants knew that Sejong was such a difficult person, they would never welcome him as the new king after the fall of Wu Zongjia. There is also a saying in Ming Taizu's Legacy that "the father dies and the son succeeds". Civil servants can choose the right person from the great-grandson of Xianzong, the nephew of Xiaozong and the nephew of Wuzong himself, so that he can become the heir of Wuzong and inherit the throne of Daming. This is also a feasible way, and it does not violate Ming Taizu's legacy.

In the sixteenth year (152 1), there was actually only one person: Zhu Houxuan's eldest son Zhu Zaizeng, and his second son Zhu and Chongren Wang. Zhu Zaizeng was born in the eleventh year of Zheng De (15 16) and was only five years old. He was also the first great-grandson of Xianzong, the nephew of Xiaozong, and the only cousin of Wuzong at that time. If the civil servants give up the method of taking Xing Shizi as a dutiful son and give Wu Zong an heir directly, five-year-old Yi Fanzong Zhu Zaizeng will be the only candidate.

However, the relationship between non-governmental organizations and Wu Zong is extremely bad, and Wu Zong is unwilling to give him an heir after his death. At the same time, if Zhu Zaizeng, who adopted Fan Yi, becomes the heir of Wuzong and inherits the throne, then Fan Yi will become the de facto new imperial clan. Fan Yi is already very prosperous. Zhu Zaizeng's grandfather, then Zhu, Zhu Zaizeng's uncle Yi Shizi Zhu Houye, his father Chongren Houxuan, his uncle Zhu Houhuang and Yushan Houyi are all alive. If five-year-old Zhu Zaizeng succeeds to the throne as emperor, then Daming's future central power, imperial interests and wealth distribution will inevitably be handed over to civil servants. This is what the civilian groups who actually controlled and distributed political affairs after the fall of Wu Zongjia did not want to see. They could never share Daming's power and wealth control with a huge potential competitor like Fan Yi.

Xing Fan has only one lonely Xing Shizi, who lives alone with his widowed mother and has no other support. Xing Shizi himself seems to be "young and ignorant" and ignorant of the world. In the eyes of civil servants, it is far more appropriate to welcome Li Xing's Prince as the new emperor than Yi Li Fan Zong. Zhu Houzong, who was young and helpless, was entrusted with a high post, "ruling by the arch" above the imperial court, and the actual political affairs were carried out by various civil servants. Isn't that the highest realm of Confucian traditional political ideas?

Therefore, due to the selfishness of civil servants, Zhu Houzong, the son of Xing Shizi, defeated Zhu Zaizeng, the grandson of his cousin, and became a new generation of Ming Di after the death of Wu Zong, thus starting his imperial career of ruling Daming Jiangshan for 45 years.

After missing the opportunity to become a grand clan, the clansmen of Yi clan, who have always been low-key and peaceful, have no special troubles and resentment, and still live a quiet life in Jianchang as before. In the eighteenth year of Jiajing (1539), Zhu Youbing, the first generation beneficial king, died in Jianchang, Wang Mi at the age of 6 1 year. After the court heard the newspaper, posthumous title was called "Duan" and "Wang". Before he died, King Zhu Shoubing of Duan Yi told Zhu Houye, the son of Yi Shi, not to build his mausoleum too luxuriously, as long as he could live. Zhu Houxuan listened to Zhu's instructions and built a humble and even shabby mausoleum for his father in the southern suburb of Jianchang House (now Yangcun, Hongmen Town, Nancheng County). The tomb of Duan Yiwang Zhu Renbing is the most humble and low-key one among the tombs of the Ming Dynasty, just as he was introverted and gentle when he was alive, loving the people and valuing the people.

In the third year of filial piety (actually, it was twenty-seven months), Zhu Houye attacked Fengyi King in the twentieth year of Jiajing (154 1). Like his father, Duan Yi Wang Zhu Youbin, he is low-key and simple, with a cold nature. He was a vassal in Jianchang for fifteen years in obscurity and had a good reputation.

In May of the thirty-fifth year of Jiajing (1556), 59-year-old Zhu Houye passed away, and the court posthumous title called him "King of Yizhuang". Because there were no children, Zhu Houxuan, the second brother of Chongren, inherited Fan Yi and was officially knighted the following year.

Zhu Houxuan succeeded Fan Yi at the age of 56, and later became wangyi for twenty-two years. He died in the fifth year of Wanli (1577) at the age of 78. Posthumous title, the court official, called him "the king". His eldest son, Zhu Zaizeng, had the opportunity to become emperor after the reunification of Wuzong. In the 25th year of Jiajing (1546), he died before his father at the age of 30. At that time, Zhu Zaizeng was only the eldest son of Chongren (the heir of the county king in Ming Dynasty was called Wang).

In the thirty-sixth year of Jiajing (1557), when Zhu Houxuan inherited the title of Fan Yi left by his younger brother, Zhuang Yiwang and Zhu Houye, he asked the court to appoint Zhu Zaizengzi and his eldest grandson, Zhu Yi, as the next generation heir of Fan Yi.

In the eighth year of Wanli (1580), Zhu Yi, the grandson of Yi Shi, was officially appointed by the court as the fourth generation of King Ise. Zhu Yi went to court and asked posthumous title. The court agreed to his request and made Zhu Zaizeng "King Zhao Yi".

In the thirty-first year of Wanli (1603), Zhu Yi died at the age of sixty-eight in Wang Yixuan, posthumous title. Prince Zhu Changqian (beside the water) succeeded to the throne in the thirty-third year of Wanli (1605), that is, the fifth generation beneficial king: Yijing King.

Later, Fan Yi experienced Yijing Wang Zhu Changqian (who died in the 43rd year of Wanli (16 15)) and Wang Yiding Zhu Youben (formerly known as Youjiao, renamed Youben because of the same name as the later Ming Xizong), and was attacked by Feng in the 45th year of Wanli (16 17).

In May of the first year of Hong Guang in Nanming and the second year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1645), the Qing army went south to attack Nanming, the Hong Guang court collapsed, and the emperor Hong Guang was captured. In June, the gentry of the Ming Dynasty in Jiangxi was led by Wang Yu, the magistrate of Jianchang, and made Zhu Cihuan, the king of Jianchang, as the overseer to fight against the Qing army. After Zhu Cihuan was promoted to supervisor, he donated all the property of Fan Yi to recruit non-commissioned officers and protect the environment and people. In July, the Li Chengdong Department of the Qing army arrived in Jiangxi and launched an attack on the local armed forces in Nanming. King Zhu Cihuan was outnumbered and defeated by the Qing army. Jianchang fell and Zhu Cihuan was captured. However, when the Qing army was about to take Zhu Cihuan to Nanchang, Zhao Huaimin, the former Yi Fan Guard, and others desperately rescued him from prison, and then protected him and fled to Fuzhou, where he defected to Zhu, the emperor of the Long Dynasty who proclaimed himself emperor.

In September of the second year of Longwu in Nanming (1645), in the third year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty, the Qing army conquered Fujian, the emperor Longwu was martyred in Tingzhou, and the Longwu regime was destroyed. Sue, a university student of Longwu regime, fled to Guangzhou and took refuge in Zhu Yuyuan, the younger brother of Emperor longwu. On the fifth day of November, Zhu Yuyu proclaimed himself emperor in Guangzhou, that is, Emperor Shaowu of Nanming. Shao valued him very much and fled to the imperial clan in Guangzhou with him. He gave five hundred mu of land in Panyu to Zhu Cihuan, the beneficial king. I once wanted him to be the Minister of Industry. However, in that year1February, the Qing army followed suit and attacked Guangzhou in a planned way to break the city. Shao and Su both died of martyrdom, and Zhu Ci hanged himself after breaking the city. Fan Yi's right of inheritance was temporarily cut off.

After Zhu Cihuan's death, his body was painstakingly transported back to Jianchang by his servants and buried in the cemetery of the Wang family, which was later called "King Yi Su" (also known as King Yimo).

In July (1647), the first year of Nanming and the fourth year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty, Zhu Changhu (the younger brother of Yijing Wang, the uncle of Wang Yiding, and the uncle of Yishu Wang), who took refuge in Fujian, rose up against the Qing Dynasty and conquered Jianning House in Fujian (now Jianning House in Fujian). In order to echo Zheng Chenggong's uprising army in Jian 'ou, Amin Army, which occupied southern Fujian, contacted local armed forces in Guangdong and waited for the transfer of troops. The Guangdong Rebel Army found Zhu Youzhen, the son of Zhu Changhu, and made him a supervisor, occupying Jieyang against the Qing army.

However, only three days later, the Qing army counterattacked, and the general ordnance division of Chaozhou of the Qing army defeated the rebels and attacked Jieyang. Zhu Youzhen and rebel leaders Xu and Zhong Zhenfeng both died in Jieyang. In March (1648), the Qing army counterattacked Jianning and defeated Fujian Rebels. Zhu Changhu, the king of Yunxi, and Wang Qi, the leader of the rebel army, also died in the chaos. The vigorous anti-Qing action of the Yi nationality was a complete failure.

In the fourth year of Nanming and the seventh year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1650), Zhu Ci-Zhu (the son and brother of) was canonized as the successor by Nanming Emperor. Zhu Cizhu died after being captured and killed by the Qing army in Li Yong in the 16th year of Li Yong in Nanming and the first year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (1662). Time and cause of death are unknown.

In the early years of Qing Emperor Kangxi, Zhu and his son, who lived in Jianchang's hometown, went through all kinds of hardships and sneaked into Taiwan Province Province to go to Zheng. Later, Zhu died of illness, and Zhu Yihao was adopted as an adopted son by Zhu Shugui (the descendant of Zhi Zhu, the sixteenth son of Liao Wang Taizu) and renamed? ? (In fact, Zhu Shugui was six generations older than Zhu Yihao, but in the last generation, he was attached to others, and these rules were not taken seriously. ).

In the 22nd year of Qing Emperor Kangxi (1683), the Qing army recovered Taiwan Province Province, and most officials of Zheng Keshuang and Zheng Group surrendered to the Qing army. Zhu Shugui refused to surrender to the Qing army, so he committed suicide in his residence at the age of 66. Zhu Yihao and other members of the Ming royal family living in Taiwan Province were brought back to the Central Plains and settled in Qixian County, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Province. Zhu Yihao is one of the well-documented Ming royal families, and his descendants inherited the latest generation (Ziyi generation, the great-grandson generation of Emperor Chongzhen). Since he returned to the Central Plains and settled in Qixian County, there is no record of Zhu Yihao in the history books. His trace disappeared in the long river of history, and the last chapter of Daming Yifan's story has been written.

.

The cemetery of the first generation, Wang, Wang and Wang is in a foreign village in Hongmen Town. He was buried for the first time in the 18th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (1539). The mausoleum faces south, and the cemetery is located in a "top chair"-shaped mountain nest. The left and right green hills represent the left green dragon and the right white tiger respectively. The mountain behind symbolizes the throne of the emperor, and the mountain in the middle is its mausoleum. The tomb is a rolling shed, which is divided into two rooms: the front room is 1.2m deep, 1.6m wide and 2.1m high; The back room is 3m high, 3m wide and 5m long. There are two stone gates, and the gates are arched, with a total length of 8.2 meters. The tomb in front of the gate is 4.9 meters long and 3. 1 meter wide. In the middle is a red stone coffin platform with two red painted coffins. On the ground in front of the coffin, there are six rows of 1 10 pottery ceremonial figurines on display. The plane is convex, and the direction of the tomb door is due southeast. The entrance to the tomb slopes from southeast to northwest. The gable around the mausoleum is 25 feet long and 15 feet wide. There is a Shinto in front of 100 meters, and the civil and military Weng Zhong, the stone beast and the Shinto column (Hua Biao) are arranged on both sides in turn. However, the cemetery has been seriously damaged, and the previous grandeur has long since ceased to exist. There is a gentle stream in the distance directly in front of the mausoleum.

Civil servants and military commanders who protect the mausoleum

In front of the tomb, there is the site of "Enjoy the Temple", the original Shinto collapsed, and there is a broken white marble monument. The monument was originally more than 3 meters high, 1 m wide and more than 30 centimeters thick, and it is still engraved with the words "Twenty years of Ming Jiajing", which is the "imperial monument" of Zhu Yunbing and his wife. There are thousands of words in the inscription, which narrates the past of the captaincy. The epitaph was written by his son Zhu Houye himself, and it was mostly a compliment.

The cultural relics unearthed from Zhu Youbing's tomb include: Jin Fengchai, gold hairpin, gold ear spoon, gold earrings, gold sachet, jade belt, jade hairpin, bronze mirror, pottery figurine, etc., and a copy of one.

Zhu Youbing was born in the 14th year of Chenghua (1478) and died in the 18th year of Jiajing (1539). He was the sixth grandson of Ming Taizu and the fourth son of Xianzong. 9-year-old Feng, 19-year-old Jian Changfu. When the country is 42 years old, it is 6 1 year. Princess Peng died in the 16th year of Jiajing (1537). Zhu Youbin was Wang Zhiyi, the three governors of Jiangxi at that time. Nanchang area is the sphere of influence of Ning-Zhu Quan system; Poyang area is the sphere of influence of Wang Huaijing Zhu Zhanyou system; Jianchang Cheng Nan area is the sphere of influence of Zhu Youbing, the king of Yiduan. Among the three princes, Yiduan King was the most powerful and lasted the longest.
