"The son of heaven guards the gate of the country, the king dies in the society", Ming Dynasty fans on the Internet like to use this sentence to beautify the Ming Dynasty, but they do not know that Emperor Taizugao's original idea was "the world is big, it will build a feudal screen, defend the country, and live in peace".
Zhu Yuanzhang was not at ease to hand over all the borders to the ministers, and was afraid of the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of the Western Han Dynasty, so on the one hand he let his son lead an army to defend the frontier, and on the other hand, he did not give them the right to govern the land. The Hongwu Emperor believed that this would protect the country, but he still overestimated the power of family affection and underestimated people's desire for power.
<h1 class= pgc-h-arrow-right > (1), the same room, Ning Wang contributed the most</h1>
Jia Yi during the Western Han Dynasty once said: "Therefore, those who are alienated will be in danger, and those who are close to them will be chaotic, and the effect is already there." He saw it very well that those who were estranged from the emperor were dangerous because the king did not trust them, and the king of the domain, who was closer to the emperor, would use this grace to stir up trouble.
Sure enough, the Zhu family's throne only passed to the second term, and there was a blood rivalry. Zhu Yunjiao succeeded to the throne, fearing that his uncles would rebel, so he forced the clan to be cut. The rabbit died and the fox was sad, and Zhu Di watched his brothers end up so miserable, so he decided to rebel. And the biggest helper of his success in the Battle of Jingnan was his half-brother Zhu Quan.
Zhu Quan was the 17th son of Zhu Yuanzhang, he was neither a concubine nor the eldest son, so his sense of existence has not been very strong, but Zhu Yuanzhang was still very fond of this son, and became the King of Ning at the age of 13, and went to his fiefdom of Daning At the age of 15, where he was in charge of the most cattle cavalry army of Daming at that time, Duoyan Sanwei.
These three guards were composed of brave and warlike Mongol cavalry, with 80,000 armor and 6,000 leather vehicles, which were the elite of the elite. And the reason why Zhu Di single-handedly came to Daning City in tears to find his younger brother Zhu Quan was also to take a fancy to this Yan Sanwei.
Even Zhu Di promised to give him half of the country after the fact. Therefore, in the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Quan, the King of Ning, with his Duoyan Sanwei was very hardworking, and repeatedly made great achievements with fewer victories and more.
However, in front of jiangshan, family affection and commitment are nothing. Many times great grace is like great vengeance, let alone seeking the grace of the world. At the "voluntary request" of Zhu Quan, the King of Ning, Zhu Di decided to move his fief south to Jiangxi.
It was neither the hinterland of the Central Plains nor an important frontier town, and King Ning posed no threat to imperial power. The oath of dividing the world equally in the past has long become an empty talk, and the Ning Dynasty is not precarious, but it is not too much to ask the brother's crossing of the river and the demolition of the bridge, and not to kill it all.
Since then, Zhu Quan, who lived in Nanchang, lived a life of trembling and trembling, and he stayed at home and was always careful, just like Sima Yi when Cao Cao was alive.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > (2), a life of forbearance, and finally a good ending</h1>
Even if they practice piano, chess, calligraphy and painting at home all day, there are still people who slander King Ning for plotting rebellion. "If you want to add to the sin, there is no excuse for it", after all, King Ning's former Duoyan Sanwei was too strong, in case he rebelled again under his life's orders, what should he do?
Of course, Zhu Di was okay with his relatives, and he did not have too much embarrassment after discovering that King Ning showed no signs of rebellion. However, since then, he has stepped up his "care" for Zhu Quan.
In the end, Zhu Di still failed to survive Zhu Quan, and Zhu Quan thought that his nephew Zhu Gaozi, who was known for his leniency and benevolence, could answer his request to change his fiefdom, but he was rejected. Of course, Zhu Gaozi's temple name of "Renzong" was not a waste of time, and although he did not agree to his uncle's request, he still relaxed his surveillance of him.
Emperor Akihito died in a hurry after reigning for less than a year, and his son Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne. King Ning, on the other hand, killed his "heavy nephew", so Emperor Mingying's Zhu Qizhen ascended to the throne. Logically speaking, Zhu Qizhen had to call Zhu Quan "Grandpa Tai".
At this time, Zhu Quan was old, and the emperor was no longer so wary of him. In the thirteenth year of orthodoxy, that is, the year before the civil change, Zhu Quan died at the age of 71, which was also a long-lived person in ancient times. Zhu Quan single-handedly survived the five emperors of Ming Taizu, Jianwen Emperor, Ming Taizong (Chengzu), Ming Renzong, and Ming Xuanzong, and lived to the Yingzong Dynasty, experiencing a total of 6 emperors in his lifetime.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > (3), Mingzhe to protect himself, to retreat into advance</h1>
So, what kind of enlightenment did Zhu Quan's life bring to future generations?
First of all, it is "Dou Mien Sheng Mi Revenge". Without King Ning and his Duoyan Sanwei, it would have been impossible for Zhu Di to successfully reach Nanjing with only his own military strength. Even if Zhu Di gave Zhu Quan half of the country, it would not be exaggerated, because he deserved it.
However, this kindness, which was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea, just harmed Zhu Quan and made Zhu Di feel defensive. It can be seen from this that helping people can but pay attention to proportions, especially in the struggle for power and profit, we must grasp the scale.
Second, the enemy who cannot be defeated will "survive" him. When the overall situation has been decided, Zhu Di reneges on his promise and instead takes revenge, Zhu Quan must be remorseful in his heart and hates him to the bone. But after all, people are sitting in a big position, and they have no way to do it. So, take good care of your body.
Even if Zhu Di was strong before he died, it was still a passing cloud. Of course, Zhu Quan's longevity is on the one hand, on the other hand, he is also much younger than Zhu Di, and even Zhu Yunjiao is one year older than Zhu Quan, so it is normal for Zhu Quan to be able to live past Zhu Di.
Again, Saion lost his horse and was not blessed.
From another point of view, it is not a good thing that Zhu Quan did not get that half of the country. If Zhu Quan really held a high position, he would have to worry about state affairs every day and live in fear.
At that time, he may not have lived to be 71 years old, and it is likely that he died early like Zhu Gaozi or Zhu Zhanji.
After Zhu Quan's death, the hereditary title of Prince of Ning was not worth it, but his descendants felt unworthy for him, and Zhu Chenhao, the fourth generation heir of the king, decided to lead an army of 100,000 troops in the fourteenth year of Zhengde, and the army was like a broken bamboo all the way through the pass, and finally wang Shouren was defeated.
Zhu Chenhao was escorted to Nanjing, and after Emperor Mingwu deposed him as a Shuren, he did not ask for the crime again. Zhu Quan was Zhu Quan's longest-lived son, Zhu Quan, who commanded a strong army since the age of 15, moved to Jiangxi after the successful rebellion, and served as an emperor for 6 years.
A life of greatness, but also a smooth landing than the brother and nephew who suppressed him lived longer. Therefore, Zhu Quan used his own experience to tell the world: people have nothing to lose, and it is the king's way to survive the enemy and live well. What do you think about that? Let's leave a message below to discuss!
