Wang Yanjun, whose year of birth and death is unknown, alias Wang (or Wang), his ancestral home is Gushi, Gwangju, and now belongs to the Henan region. He was the monarch of the Min Kingdom during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. As the second son of Wang Shenzhi and the younger brother of Wang Yanhan, he initially held the position of Quanzhou Assassin. In 927 AD, he proclaimed himself monarch for killing his brother Wang Yanhan. In 933 AD, Wang Yanjun officially proclaimed himself emperor, changed the name of the year to Longqi, and set the country name as "Damin". However, in 935 AD, he was assassinated by his own son, Wang Jipeng. After his death, he was honored as Emperor Hui, and the temple name was Taizong (it is also said that the nickname was Emperor Qisu Mingxiao, and the temple name was Huizong).
Wang Yanyu, originally the history of Jianzhou Thorn, his real surname is Zhou, and he is the adopted son of King Zhenzhi of Fujian Taizu. He was at odds with Wang Yanhan when he was alive. In the first year of the Later Tang Dynasty (926), Wang Yanhan inherited the throne as the monarch of the Min State, but his attitude towards his brother was contemptuous and arrogant. After inheriting the throne for just over a month, he appointed Wang Yanjun as the assassin of Quanzhou, which made Wang Yanjun extremely angry, so he joined forces with Wang Yanyu to eradicate Wang Yanhan.
In December of the first year of Tiancheng (926), Wang Yanyu took the lead in sending troops and successfully captured and killed Wang Yanhan. The next day, Wang Yanjun arrived with his troops, and because Wang Yanyu was an adopted son, he recommended Wang Yanjun to the throne and renamed him Wang. After Wang Yanjun succeeded to the throne, the Later Tang Dynasty worshiped him as the envoy of the festival, and successively crowned him as the Taishi of the inspection school and the Zhongshu Order, and gave him the title of King of Fujian.
On the sixteenth day of the first month of the second year of Tiancheng (927), when Wang Yanyu returned to Jianzhou, Wang Yanjun personally went to the suburbs to make a trip for him. At the time of parting, Wang Yanyu warned Wang Yanjun to inherit the legacy of his ancestors, and hinted that he did not want to get involved in court disputes again. On the third day of the fifth month of the same year, the Later Tang Dynasty appointed Wang Yanjun as the envoy of the Dao Festival and gave him the title of King Langya.
In the second year of Changxing (931), Wang Yanyu led his troops to attack Wang Yanjun, and Wang Yanjun sent Wang Renda to resist. Using his wit, Wang Renda successfully ambushed and killed Wang Yanyu's son, Wang Jixiong, thus forcing Wang Yanyu to surrender and be killed. Wang Jisheng, the son of Wang Yanyu, fled to Wu Yue for refuge after hearing that his father was defeated.
In the third year of Changxing (932), Wang Yanjun wrote to the Tang court, requesting that he be named Shangshu Ling, but the Later Tang Dynasty did not agree. Therefore, Wang Yanjun decided to refuse to pay tribute to the Later Tang Dynasty. He believed in ghosts and gods and Taoism, and even gave himself a Taoist name - Xuanxi. He trusted the Taoist priest Chen Shouyuan and built the Baohuang Palace as his residence. Chen Shouyuan had predicted that Wang Yanjun would abdicate and become a Daluo Immortal sixty years later, and this prophecy had a profound impact on Wang Yanjun.
In the fourth year of Changxing (933), Wang Yanjun officially proclaimed himself emperor in the Baohuang Palace, and changed the year name to Longqi, and the country name was set as "Damin". He posthumously honored Wang Zhenzhi as Emperor Zhaowuxiao, the temple name Taizu, and set up five temples and hundreds of officials, and renamed Fuzhou Changle Mansion. However, due to the small size of Fujian and its financial difficulties, Wang Yanjun appointed Xue Wenjie as the national envoy to ease the financial pressure. Xue Wenjie's draconian policies aroused popular dissatisfaction, and he recommended the witch Xu Yan to consolidate Wang Yanjun's rule with the theory of gods and ghosts.
Wang Yanjun's maidservant Chunyan is beautiful and moving, and her son Wang Jipeng has evil thoughts about her. During Wang Yanjun's illness, Wang Jipeng asked Wang Yanjun for spring geese through Chen Jinfeng, and although Wang Yanjun was reluctant, he finally handed over the spring geese to Wang Jipeng. This incident aroused the dissatisfaction of Wang Yanjun's second son, Wang Jitao, who plotted to kill Wang Jipeng, but Wang Jipeng learned the news in advance and plotted with Li Fang, the envoy of the imperial city, to deal with Wang Jitao.
On October 18, the first year of Yonghe (935), when Wang Yanjun was rewarding his soldiers in the Great Youfu Palace, he suddenly fainted and claimed to have seen Wang Yanyu's phantom. Li Fang mistakenly thought that Wang Yanjun was seriously ill, so he ordered someone to kill Li Keyin. The next morning, Wang Yanjun's condition improved, and he asked Li Fang why he killed Li Keyin, Li Fang panicked, and then led the imperial city guards into the palace with Wang Jipeng. Wang Yanjun hid in the Kowloon tent after hearing the sound of drums, but was unfortunately seriously injured by the guards. The palace people couldn't bear to see him suffer, and eventually killed him. Subsequently, Li Fang killed Wang Jitao, Chen Jinfeng, and Gui Shouming. After Wang Yanjun died, he was honored as Emperor Hui, and the temple name was Taizong (it is also said that the name is Emperor Qisu Mingxiao, and the temple name is Huizong).
