The Ming Dynasty can be regarded as a very peculiar dynasty in the history of our country, in this dynasty, many emperors can not go to the dynasty for decades, but the country will not have any problems, such as the Wanli Emperor is a typical example. Despite this, the development of the country is still good, because there is an excellent cabinet, the country basically has no problems, so being an emperor in the Ming Dynasty is the best choice, but if you don't want to be an emperor, you can also choose to be a prince.
The prince of the Ming Dynasty is also a beautiful errand, there is no work, and there is a lot of money to take, which is definitely the envy of many people now. But there was a prince in the Ming Dynasty who was miserable, and his name was Zhu Changxun, because according to historical records, he was the first prince to be eaten.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" > prince born with a golden spoon</h1>
Zhu Changxun's birth was not simple, his mother was the Wanli Emperor who had not been in the dynasty for decades mentioned earlier, and his mother was Zheng Guifei, who was also a very favored concubine in the harem. Although Zheng Guifei was not so beautiful, she still gave birth to a son to the Wanli Emperor and let the royal family spread its branches, so she was still very good in the palace alone.
When Zhu Changxun was born, he had an older brother in front of him, and as they grew up, the royal family's rules and regulations began. In ancient times, there was a very important rule that the eldest son inheritance system, that is to say, only the first son of the empress could inherit the throne, but at that time, the empress of the Wanli Emperor did not have a son, and since there was no concubine, there was only the eldest son.
At that time, the eldest son was born of the Wang clan, who was an unnamed woman in the harem of the Ming Dynasty, and the Wanli Emperor did not like her very much, so he did not want his son to become his heir. At this time, the Wanli Emperor liked Zhu Changxun very much, so he had an idea in his heart, that is, to make Zhu Changxun the emperor, but in this way it violated the rules, and sure enough, this idea was opposed by the ministers as soon as it came out, but the Wanli Emperor did not believe in evil and entangled with the courtiers for almost ten years.

The Wanli Emperor made a lot of efforts to make Zhu Changxun become emperor, but in the end he did not win the courtiers, and in desperation, he could only let wang's son inherit the throne, and Wang suddenly changed from an unnoticed woman to an empress.
In the end, Zhu Changxun only crowned a Fu Wang. Because he loved his son, the Wanli Emperor gave a lot of land to Zhu Changxun, and at that time, Shandong and Hubei were the richest, so he rightfully gave these two places to Zhu Changxun.
What he did not expect was that Zhu Changxun was not satisfied at all, and he also gave him all the taxes from Sichuan and other places from his own body, monopolizing the right to manage salt and iron, because with the favor of the Wanli Emperor, no one could take him any way. The direct consequence of such an act was that the imperial court did not pay enough taxes, and there were serious problems in the finances, which could only be looted from the people, and for a long time, the people hated Zhu Changxun very much.
Zhu Changxun soon fell into depravity, from a proud son of heaven to a good eater and lazy, and his weight soared to 300 pounds, although we do not know whether this is because he did not become the emperor, so he is retaliating, but we can be sure that such a person is doomed to do no great cause. The prince who is not liked by the people and has no achievements will inevitably be remembered.
It didn't take long for an event to begin, the largest peasant uprising in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and because of the people's hatred of Zhu Changxun, Zhu Changxun soon became the first person to be retaliated against. Li Zicheng's team soon reached the border of Zhu Changxun, who was very scared and asked Li Zicheng to let him go.
He was eaten by Li Zi and became the evil man in the world
Li Zicheng knew that this man was scavenging the people's fat and people's ointment, and Li Zicheng was also from a peasant background, and he hated him very much, so how could he easily let him go, and immediately arrested him. According to the machine of history, in the end, Zhu Changxun was ordered by Li Zicheng to divide and eat, and when he thought of it, it was creepy, and a person who should have achieved results was finally killed by himself.
After the people learned of this matter, they all clapped their hands and applauded, and Li Zi became a great hero in everyone's heart to eliminate harm, but unfortunately, this peasant uprising finally failed, and there were many reasons for failure, so there is not much to repeat here. But failure does not mean that they have no achievements, history has a high evaluation of them, on the contrary, people like Zhu Changxun are not so lucky, he will become an evil person in history, forever staying on the pillar of shame.
In fact, after reading Zhu Changxun's life, it seems that he can know why he became such a person. Zhu Changxun was born with a golden spoon from the beginning, his father was the emperor, and his mother was a favorite concubine. His life was full of flowers, and he had taken it for granted that he would become an emperor, after all, his brother was not liked, but what he did not expect was that his father was so useless and did not make himself an emperor.
Probably from this time on, he began to have a strong rebellious psychology, wanting to take revenge, and as a result, he killed himself in this way. Childhood coddling is the reason why he finally went into the abyss, and I think that such a person, even if he becomes a monarch, will only become a scourge and not a useful person to the country.
If Zhu Changxun had just honestly been his own prince, maybe the end would not have been so tragic, but unfortunately, he did not seem to understand this truth, and in the end he became such a person, and ended up in such a situation, he could only say a word of blame for himself.
If the Wanli Emperor had finally known, would he have been very sad, would he have regretted the wrong decision he had made, and if he hadn't doted on this child so much, perhaps his future would have been completely different. Sadly, his doting eventually led to such a wrong ending. Therefore, parents must also have their own judgment.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > summary</h1>
History is a mirror to give us advice, Zhu Changxun's example has admonished many parents to establish correct values for their children, a person only has the right values, will do some useful things, people whose values are not right, will only become a scourge of the world. If it endangers society, such a person will only be disgusted.
At the same time, Zhu Changxun's example also warns us young people to be ambitious, but ambition should not be too arrogant. We live in this world to add glory to this world, not to create trouble for this world, may you all have a good life, can have your own achievements and a good future in this world, we work together to make this country better.
Thank you for watching, paying attention to me, and learning more about the historical story.
