In "Daming Style", Zhu Zhanji, played by Zhu Yawen, is smart, cunning, and even more angry, plus a brocade guard, a hilarious "factory" appearance. So what will Zhu Zhanji look like in history, and what will he leave behind for the Ming Dynasty?
As the eldest grandson of Zhu Di and the eldest son of the crown prince Zhu Gaozi, although his grandfather Zhu Di did not like his father who "counted around his waist and abdomen", from the moment he was born, he was already doomed to be extraordinary.
In the feudal society that emphasized superstition and destiny, Zhu Di once dreamed that his father Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a big gui, and had a saying: the grandson of the inheritance, the eternal qichang; it was also at this time that the next person came to report the birth of his grandson Zhu Zhanji. And when the moon was full, Zhu Di saw it and said, "Erying is overflowing, Fu Wu dreams." ”
Starting from a "dream of wealth and nobility," Zhu Zhanji's growth was almost all the way. The young man was intelligent and could write and be good at martial arts, and his grandfather Zhu Di personally taught him, and he also accompanied the attendants on the expedition, and Zhu Zhanji could even use his favored position to protect his father Zhu Gaoxu from the blows of Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaoxuan.
So is he really as angry and funny as in "Daming Style"? The answer is yes.
He liked cockroaches, more like to be funny, once visited Yang Shiqi in the middle of the night, Yang Shiqi was unprepared, panicked and went out to greet, but because of the darkness and old eyes, he bowed to the north; and Zhu Zhanji, who was an emperor, smiled brightly in the east, leaning against the railing, and said a sentence "Yang Shiqi, I am here." Yang Shiqi naturally wanted to show the attitude of an old minister and persuade him not to act in the future for such a sudden act of the emperor, but on the second day, this Xuanzong even sent someone to ask Yang Shiqi why he had left your home, but you were not happy!
There are countless such reasons in the Xuanzong Dynasty. It can be said that at this point, Zhu Yawen's role positioning in "Daming Style" is very real, which is quite meaningful for restoring history.
But in the evaluation of historical figures, we often speak of results. As the fifth king of the Ming Dynasty, when Emperor Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji took the throne, his grandfather Zhu Di had already recovered jiaotong, established the Nuer Gandusi, and submitted to the southwestern frontier of the Indochina Peninsula, and the strength of the Mongolian Yuan in the north had also been seriously hit, and the external troubles at this time were basically flattened; but internally, it was also because of the continuous use of troops for many years, heavy taxes; in addition, the problem of the king of the domain was also shelved because of Zhu Di's improper position.
On June 27, 1425, Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne and began to rectify military affairs at the beginning, and the rebellion of the emperor's uncle Zhu Gaoxu also provided him with an "excuse" to solve the problem of the king left behind by the three dynasties of Jianwen Emperor, Zhu Di, and Zhu Gaozi. After quickly dispatching troops to encircle Zhu Gaoxu's Le'an, Zhu Gaoxu surrendered, and Zhu Gaoxu was also demoted to a Shuren and then placed under house arrest; as for the third uncle Zhu Gaoxuan, he was also quite aware of current affairs and handed over his military power at ease, and the other clan kings naturally followed suit, so that the problem of the king of the clan was smoothly resolved; in the appointment of courtiers, Zhu Zhanji's famous courtiers gathered: Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Yang Pu, Xia Yuanji, and Jianyi, all of whom were also temporarily Yuliang, so that emperor Xuanzong's dynasty was lightly endowed with thin endowments, reducing the use of foreign troops, and also achieving heqinghai yan and the people's prosperity and national strength. This is also the reason why the "rule of Ren Xuan" is popular, and the reason why Ming Xuanzong is called Ming Jun.
However, the model of the feudal family world ruled by people, the appointment of capable subjects and other deeds depend more on the individual ruler, and can not favor future generations, only measures such as the settlement of the king of the clan can shade future generations, in solving the king of the clan This point Zhu Zhanji undoubtedly made a great contribution to the Ming Dynasty's strong and weak branches, the stability of the rule, but his other move also became the basic factor of the Ming Dynasty, but it is said that since he began to set up the Neishu Hall, it also achieved the chaos of the party struggle at the end of the Ming Dynasty.
Many people regard Zhu Zhanji's abandonment of the toe and nuer gandusi as his number one fault, but this is not the case. Under the policy of restraint adopted by jiaotong and nuer gandusi to maintain systematic governance, a lot of financial expenditure was needed, and for the political environment that was stretched at that time, giving up was the best policy, and as for the so-called strength of the Jurchen people, it was also out of reach, and the Chenghua Ploughing Court of his descendant Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen was a good proof.
However, only in the setting up of the inner library, Zhu Zhanji could be said to be a big mistake in teaching eunuchs to read and hyphenate. Since the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the beggar system, Zhu Di improved the cabinet system, and appointed a group of low-ranking local officials to act in government affairs, which improved the efficiency of work, but also meant the enhancement of the strength of the civilian official clique. If Zhu Zhanji wanted to realize the art of checks and balances, under the condition of making the eunuchs literate, he handed over the right to vote to the eunuchs, and this also led to the original eunuchs under Zhu Yuanzhang's prohibition of government and the rise of the eunuchs, who had no real power, it is true that the rights of these eunuchs, from the imperial power, are not hereditary, but under the model of rule by man, this will also lead to the crisis of the dynasty, and the party struggle between the eunuch dictatorship and the civilian official clique will also intensify as the dynasty moves forward, and the dispute between the Donglin Party and the eunuch party at the end of the Ming Dynasty also began here.
The direct consequence of conniving at the eunuchs and eunuchs' monopoly of power was that when Emperor Xuanzong of Ming was ill and Empress Chengxiao Zhang was ill, the young Emperor Mingyingzong Zhu Qizhen, lacking political support and listening to the words of the eunuch Wang Zhen, the superintendent of ceremonies, rushed to lead an army against Vala. This also led to the change of Tumu Fort, the loss of 200,000 elites of daming, and the military attaché group was completely suppressed by the civilian official group, which was only seven years after Zhu Zhanji's death. History has so accidentally buried the hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty.
