As the lowest-born emperor in Chinese history, Zhu Yuanzhang has always been an ancient hot figure that people discuss, and his appearance has also received attention, in 2019, "Daming Palace Words" has spread all over the country, attracting a lot of attention, but people are more concerned about Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance, and the original Ming Taizu was depicted by the crew as a "shoehorn face". This is not that the crew does not respect Zhu Yuanzhang, they also set off the character image by comparing the portraits circulated by the folk Zhu Yuanzhang, but the key is, does Zhu Yuanzhang really look like this?
In fact, the image of Zhu Yuanzhang that people see today has 4 pictures, of which the Qing Dynasty deliberately scandalized, and in the end, it is his true appearance, let's take a look.
The first is the most common and often said in the Ming history research circles that Zhu Yuanzhang has a long-faced vision, and the crescent-shaped face of Zhu Yuanzhang on the picture is particularly dangerous and strange. In fact, the ancient emperors, the history books record some uniqueness, such as the "Complete Compilation of Divine Appearances" recorded: "The nose is high and the ears are shrugged, the shape is strict, the body is long, the bones are clear, the eyebrows are clear, the behavior is outstanding, there is authority, and the foot is changed." Former Han Gao Emperor Long Zhun Long Yan, Tang Taizong Long Zi Sun Horn, is the face of the emperor, very human. And Zhu Yuanzhang, as a male lord of a generation, is simply ugly and does not look like a human, is this possible?
Another picture of Zhu Yuanzhang, which shows his full body appearance, is still the image of a long face, and the expression on his face is with a hint of treachery and cunning.
As for the third painting, it is even more exaggerated, Zhu Yuanzhang's face is also lit with large and small hemp. These paintings, before the Ming Dynasty, were not circulated, but by the end of the Ming Dynasty, especially in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, they were widely popular, and during the Qianlong period, some portraits were included in the Southern Kaoru Hall of the Capital. It can be recognized by future generations. Are these paintings real?
First of all, it should be noted that there is no historical evidence that Zhu Yuanzhang's face has hemp seeds, but several emperors of the Qing Dynasty, such as Xianfeng Tongzhi, who suffered from smallpox, are likely to be mazi faces, as for Kangxi, the Qing court described his appearance as: "The sky is strange, radiant, the eyes are hanging, Long Zhun Yue Li, the ear is loud, and the Qi Tianzhong", it can be said that there is not a word of nutrition, but the foreign missionaries who have seen him write in their memoirs: "Kangxi is about one meter and five meters tall, slightly fat, and his face has acne because of his childhood." , a face full of potholed hemp. ”
Among the paintings, there are many untenable places, such as zhu yuanzhang's hat on the thing called the hat zheng, is the Manchu into the customs, only in China, the Ming Dynasty has never unearthed similar cultural relics, can only speculate that it is the Qing people's fabrication, so it is said that these paintings are deliberate planning of Zhu Yuanzhang, in fact, there is nothing wrong at all.
What is Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance? Ming Zhangxuan's "Doubting Yao Volume I" records, "Yu is in the Western Province, the Imperial Rong of Gao and Cheng Erzu in the ShideFu, the husband of Emperor Gao Naimei, and the beard is all silver wire, which can be counted and not much repair." This means that Zhu Yuanzhang is a beautiful man, and his beard is like silver wire. Of course, this is a bit of a slap in the face.
Then look at a passage in the Qing people's revision of the "History of Ming", Zhu Yuanzhang went to join the army, and as a result, the leader of the rebel army saw his unique appearance, so he stayed by his side as a pro-soldier, and then married his daughter to him: "Zi Xingqi's appearance, left as a pro-soldier." This at least shows that Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance is absolutely worthy of people. Otherwise, Guo Zixing would not harm his daughter.
In fact, the last pair is the real appearance of Zhu Yuanzhang, "Ming Taizu Seated Portrait", made by the Ming court painters, is now stored in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, Zhu Yuanzhang wears a black gauze folded scarf on his head, wearing a Minghuang imperial robe with a dragon pattern, a python belt around his waist, and soap boots on his feet, which is not too good-looking, but has the majesty of the king.com. This is what the painter wants to express, as for the portraits handed down by the Qing people, even these folk fabrication products, as the standard image of Zhu Yuanzhang, placed in the imperial palace of the Ming Forbidden City to enshrine the emperors of the past, it is obviously a joke.
