April 16, 1380: Zhu Di, the king of Yan, took Beiping.
Zhu Di hates Fang Xiaoru the most, but there is no such thing as the Zhu Jiu clan, let alone the Zhu Shi clan.
Fang Xiaoru was the main advisor to Emperor Jianwen's side, and he was also a strong supporter of eliminating the feudal town.
Zhu Di believes that if it weren't for Fang Xiaoru instigating Emperor Jianwen, this nephew might not have attacked him. Zhu Di will do a good job as the soil emperor Yan King, there is no need to rebel in the face of the world's disapproval.
In fact, the main suggestions for eliminating the feudal towns were all put forward by Qi Tai, the secretary of the military department, and Huang Zicheng, the secretary of the Taichang Temple, not Fang Xiaoru.
Fang Xiaoru was a scholar and did not know much about military affairs, he only thought that the elimination of feudal towns should be done, but he was not the main promoter.
Fang Xiaoru was 45 years old at that time and was a well-known Confucian in the country.
As early as the era of Zhu Yuanzhang, Fang Xiaoru was very famous. Zhu Yuanzhang summoned Fang Xiaoru many times and thought that he was a knowledgeable and upright talent.
However, Fang Xiaoru advocated benevolent politics, and Zhu Yuanzhang believed that the world had just stabilized, and advocated using severe punishment to deter the people, and then slowly implement benevolent government.
The two have different political concepts, Zhu Yuanzhang did not reuse Fang Xiaoru, but still focused on training and made him a teacher for the princes.
When Zhu Yuanzhang died, he left an edict to let Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen reuse Fang Xiaoru.
As a result, Fang Xiaoru, as a literati, became the able minister of Emperor Jianwen, and served as a Hanlin attendant and a bachelor of Hanlin.
Fang Xiaoru was only responsible for teaching Emperor Jianwen to read, but he was upright and intelligent, and the emperor trusted him very much.
At that time, Emperor Jianwen was only 21 years old, and he lacked experience in all aspects, and sometimes he would ask Fang Xiaoru's opinion when dealing with government affairs.
When Emperor Jianwen was unwell, he would also ask Fang Xiaoru to deal with the twists and turns on his behalf. Fang Xiaoru was loyal to Emperor Jianwen, did not embezzle, did not seize power, and became one of the emperor's confidants.
Fang Xiaoru supported the reduction of the feudal domain, but did not recommend that various measures be launched immediately.
After Emperor Jianwen listened to the advice of Qi Tai, the secretary of the military department, and Huang Zicheng, the secretary of the Taichang Temple, Zhu Di immediately rebelled and raised troops to attack the south.
Fang Xiaoru had no military experience, and was mainly responsible for drafting the edict against King Yan.
And the hairy young man Emperor Jianwen is obviously not the opponent of his battle-experienced uncle Zhu Di. During the war, Fang Xiaoru had some proposals, but unfortunately they did not help much militarily.
And Fang Xiaoru's biggest mistake is probably not to let Emperor Jianwen escape to the south. He believed that once Emperor Jianwen fled south, the imperial court would collapse, and Zhu Di would take the opportunity to seize the throne, and all the soldiers and horses in the world would turn against him.
At this time, even if Emperor Jianwen fled to the south, he would not be able to resist Zhu Di's army for a long time, and he would eventually be defeated, but would leave a historical infamy.
Fang Xiaoru advocated holding on to Nanjing and waiting for reinforcements. Even if he was finally defeated and died in Nanjing, Emperor Jianwen died for the country and left a good reputation in history.
However, before reinforcements could arrive, Emperor Jianwen's most trusted general, Li Jinglong, opened the Jinchuan Gate in Nanjing and let Zhu Di's army enter the city. Emperor Jianwen died by self-immolation, and he escaped from the tunnels of the Nanjing Imperial Palace to the outside of the city, disguised as a monk and hid among the people.
As early as Zhu Di's army invaded the south of the Yellow River, the ministers of the imperial court often saw the wind and steered, leaving room for everything. When Zhu Di's army came to the city, the ministers and relatives of the emperor left Nanjing directly, maintaining a neutral attitude, and supporting whoever wins.
As for ministers like Li Jinglong, who directly surrendered to Zhu Di, there are also many of them.
Fang Xiaoru did the opposite, closed his door, and refused to surrender.
In fact, this is something that Zhu Di has long expected. Fang Xiaoru is very famous, and many scholars know that this person is loyal and patriotic, and will not succumb to rape.
Zhu Di's advisor Yao Guangxiao once said to him, "Fang Xiaoru will never surrender on the day the city is broken, but he must not be killed." killed Fang Xiaoru, and the world's "reading seeds" (readers who can inherit the past and enlighten the future) will be extinct. Zhu Di nodded in agreement.
However, Zhu Di was very disgusted with Fang Xiaoru. Fang Xiaoru doesn't know how to fight, but he knows how to propagandize.
He had disgusted Zhu Di several times.
For example, Fang Xiaoru once suggested Emperor Jianwen and asked Zhu Di to be rebellious.
Emperor Jianwen agreed, and also ordered Fang Xiaoru to draft an edict and send Xue Yun, the young secretary of Dali Temple, to arrive at the Yan army, pardon the crimes of King Yan, and make him quit the army and return to the domain. Of course, it is impossible for Zhu Di to agree, the morale of the army and the people under his command has dropped greatly, and it is generally believed that Zhu Di is raising troops to rebel, and he is not on the side of the Qing monarch at all.
In May of the same year, Wu Jie, Ping'an, and Sheng Yong sent troops to disturb Yanjun's salary, and Zhu Di wrote a letter requesting that the three be removed from their positions. When Emperor Jianwen wanted to approve it, Fang Xiaoru said: "Once the soldiers are stopped, it will be impossible to gather, please don't be confused." "Emperor Jianwen decided to insist on fighting the Yan army.
Zhu Di almost surrendered without a fight, and the other party's filial piety and hatred were to the core.
After Zhu Di invaded Nanjing, although he hated Fang Xiaoru, he still hoped to recruit him: Zhu Di also intended to borrow Fang Xiaoru's prestige to win people's hearts, so when the Yan army broke through Nanjing, Zhu Di repeatedly sent people to the prison to surrender to Fang Xiaoru, hoping that he would write an edict for the new emperor to ascend the throne, but Fang Xiaoru resolutely refused. Then Zhu Di forcibly sent someone to escort Fang Xiaoru to the palace, Fang Xiaoru entered with linen and filial piety, and was extremely sad, and the cry resounded through the hall.
Zhu Di stepped forward to comfort Fang Xiaoru with warm words, hoping that Fang could assist him, just like Zhou Gong assisted Cheng Wang.
Fang Xiaoru asked loudly: Where is Your Majesty (Emperor Jianwen)?
Zhu Di replied that he had died of self-immolation, and he was elected by hundreds of officials, so he had to succeed to the throne.
Fang Xiaoru asked again: Why didn't you set up a prince there (the son of Emperor Jianwen)?
Zhu Di replied unhappily: The prince is young and cannot govern.
Fang Xiaoru said: Then you can also set up other emperors (the brother of Emperor Jianwen).
Zhu Di was angry and said: This is our Zhu family's business, and outsiders are not allowed to ask.
Subsequently, Zhu Di handed over the paper, ink, pen and inkstone to Fang Xiaoru and forced him to write an edict.
Fang Xiaoru wrote on the paper "Yan thief usurped the throne".
When Zhu Di saw this, he was furious, and new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart, and scolded: Do you really think that I won't dare to kill you? Aren't you afraid of death?
Fang Xiaoru said: What is death worth, let me write an edict is absolutely impossible.
Zhu Di threatened: Not only will I kill you, but I will also punish your nine clans.
Fang Xiaoru replied: Even if the Ten Clans can't write.
Zhu Di was furious and ordered Fang Xiaoru to be executed, his family was also seated, and hundreds of people were unlucky.
The Zhu Shi clan is not real history.
These hundreds of people were not killed, but mainly exiled and confiscated.
There is no record of this kind of thing in the history books of the Ming Dynasty, not even in the Qing Dynasty.
You must know that the Ming Dynasty did not dare to record, perhaps because it was afraid of the literary prison of the dynasty.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty defiled all the Ming emperors of the previous dynasties, and even fabricated history to blacken the Ming Dynasty. Even so, the "History of the Ming Dynasty" of the Qing Dynasty never mentioned the nine clans of Zhu Di and Fang Xiaoru, let alone the ten clans.
So, what is the Nine Clans?
It is to kill a big family, starting from the great ancestor, including the great-grandfather, grandfather, father, myself, son, grandson, great-grandson, great-grandson, and great-grandson.
The purpose of the Zhujiu clan is to completely kill all the male members of this family, and basically leave no one behind.
Many people don't understand, is it possible for great-grandfathers to live with great-great-grandchildren?
This is because the ancients married very early, and the dignitaries and dignitaries often had a group of wives and concubines, many children, and there were differences in generation and age.
Grandfather, who is also grandfather, may still be giving birth to children in his fifties or sixties in his old age. Grandpa gave birth to a young son, who may be younger than you or even your child, but he is of a high generation. If the grandfather lives to be seventy or eighty years old, he will be able to see your grandchildren, so that there will be five generations.
If the big family is born like this, there will continue to be elders with high seniority and young age, and over time, there will be a situation where six or seven generations or even eight or nine generations are in the same house.
Then, the Zhujiu clan can guarantee that all the males in this family will be killed.
In fact, there was only one Zhu Jiu clan in Chinese history, and that was Yang Xuangan at the end of the Sui Dynasty.
At that time, Emperor Yang of Sui conquered Goguryeo, and Yang Xuangan, the son of Situ Yangsu, took the opportunity to rebel. Yang Xuangan's rebellion was the first step in the fall of the Sui Dynasty, and it was of great significance, and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty hated him very much. After Yang Xuangan committed suicide in defeat, Emperor Yang of Sui ordered the Yang family to punish the nine clans and kill all the men of the entire Yang family.
In addition, there are no nine ethnic groups in Chinese history, let alone ten ethnic groups. The so-called Zhu Ten Clans means that on the basis of the Nine Clans, he will kill all his masters and students.
In fact, the three ethnic groups are more common in Chinese history.
The three clans mainly killed their fathers, sons and grandsons with the three clans, and basically killed all the men in the family, which is politically overhauled.
In Chinese history, there were relatively many Zhu three tribes, but they were only used for the crime of rebellion.
The famous "Orphan of Zhao" is about the Zhao Dun incident during the Spring and Autumn Period of Jin Linggong. Wenchen Zhao Dun and Wuchen Tu Anjia were political enemies, Tu Anjia tried to frame Zhao Dun and accused Zhao Dun of rebellion in front of Linggong. Zhao Dun was exterminated because of this, and his son Zhao Shuo was certainly not spared. At that time, the Zhu San clan also included grandchildren, and Zhao Shuo's wife, Princess Zhuang Ji, the sister of Jin Linggong, was pregnant.
Normally, the baby would be killed after birth. But Jin Linggong's mother loved Princess Zhuang Ji very much and took her into the palace. After Princess Zhuang Ji entered the palace, she gave birth to a son named Zhao Wu. Princess Zhuang Ji was afraid that the baby would also be killed, so Cheng Ying pretended to be a doctor and put the baby in the medicine box and secretly took it out of the palace. 15 years later, Zhao Wufang knew that he was a descendant of the Zhao family, and he was determined to take revenge and exterminate Tu'an Jia.
It can be seen that the main purpose of the three clans at that time was similar to the policy of the Italian mafia, which was to kill all the men of the hostile family and prevent the other party's retaliation.
If Tu Anjia kills all the men in the Zhao family, he will not be exterminated after 15 years.
In other words, for Fang Xiaoru, the Zhu Jiu Clan and the Zhu Ten Clans do not exist.
First of all, let's talk about the Zhu Ten Clan, that is, to kill the master, disciple and fellow disciples of Fang Xiaoru. However, after Fang Xiaoru was killed, his disciples Liao Yong and Liao Ming were buried on Yuhuatai. If the Ten Clans are punished, how can these two disciples still live to collect the corpses?
It is said that the nine tribes or even the ten tribes are mainly wild history.
In fact, Fang Xiaoru's immediate relatives, especially his son, were indeed connected, and there is no evidence that the so-called Nine Clans were killed.
Fang Xiaoru has a 9-year-old son, Fang Dezong, who lives in seclusion in Dongguan, Guangdong. At that time, it was impossible for the government not to even know how many sons Fang Xiaoru had, and the only explanation was that he was deliberately let go because of his young age. The one who adopted him turned out to be Fang Xiaoru's best friend before his death, and Wei Ze, the former secretary of the Criminal Department. If it weren't for Zhu Di's order, Wei Ze wouldn't dare to do such a thing, even if he had the courage to do it.
In addition, many of Fang Xiaoru's immediate family members survived.
After Zhu Di's death, his eldest son, Mingrenzong Zhu Gaochi, succeeded to the throne and ordered a pardon for Fang Xiaoru's clansmen.
Let's ask, if they are all killed, and they are all pardoned, we know that the one who was saved by She Miao was Fang's cousin Fang Xiaofu.
Later, the emperor ordered that up to 1,200 descendants of the Fang Xiaoru people who had been exiled to the frontier should be returned to the interior, which also proved that they were not killed at all, but only exiled.
What's even more exaggerated is that some people say that Zhu Di sold Fang Xiaoru's wife and daughter as official prostitutes, making them pick up more than ten customers every day, and they were devastated.
This is also wild history nonsense.
Fang Xiaoru has only 1 wife and 2 daughters. After knowing that Fang Xiaoru was killed, the two daughters committed suicide by throwing themselves into the water, and the wife hanged herself, there is no talk of selling it to a brothel.
Can a dead man be a prostitute?
The Ming Dynasty had great respect for Fang Xiaoru.
During the period of Mingshenzong, there was an edict to praise the loyal ministers during the Jianwen period, and to build the Biaozhong Temple in Nanjing, among the characters listed in the temple, Xu Huizu was the head, followed by Fang Xiaoru. During the period of Emperor Hongguang, he gave filial piety to the Taishi, and he was Wenzheng.
