Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty as a commoner, and his bitterness made him know how to consolidate a political rule. The collapse of the former dynasty and the fuse of the rise and fall of many dynasties in history made Zhu Yuanzhang understand the importance of the choice of heir to the throne. The people are water, the monarch is the boat, water can carry and overturn the boat, so the heir to the throne must be benevolent and love the people. In order to prevent the brothers from killing each other and give the enemy a chance to take advantage of, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to apply the eldest son inheritance system. Therefore, he established Zhu Biao, the eldest son of a benevolent and frail, but benevolent, prince.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought he was doing a good job, but he ignored the existence of his fourth son, Zhu Di. It can be said that among Zhu Yuanzhang's sons, Zhu Di is the one most like him. Wenneng governs the country and Wu Neng leads his army to conquer the world. Therefore, Zhu Di felt that he should be the most suitable heir to the throne. Zhu Yuanzhang understands Zhu Di's thoughts, but if he is not the eldest son and he is too good, it will cause the emperor's concerns. In this way, Zhu Di got the news of Zhu Biao's death in a huff, but who thought Zhu Yuanzhang still did not consider that he directly changed Zhu Biao's son Zhu Yunwen as the prince. You must know that Zhu Yunwen is not the eldest son of any serious one, so Zhu Di is angry, he thinks Zhu Yuanzhang is squeezing him out. This anger has been vented until Zhu Yuanzhang's death and Zhu Yunwen vigorously reformed the Ming Dynasty's ancestral system after he took the throne.
In 1402, Zhu Di, who had been coveting the throne for a long time, finally initiated the change of Jing Nan in the name of Qingjun. When Zhu Di led the palace along the way and was about to personally capture Zhu Yunqi, suddenly he saw a raging fire in the palace centered on Zhu Yunqi's bedroom. After the fire was extinguished, the guards lifted several charred bodies from the fire. They judged from the clothing worn on the body that it belonged to the queen and concubines, but they rummaged through the entire palace but did not find Zhu Yunqi's body. Regarding Zhu Yunqi’s whereabouts, some people speculated whether it was because the body was burned too badly and was not recognized. Others said that Zhu Yunqi ran away from the secret road under the protection of guards. Others said that Zhu Yunqi had shaved his hair and dressed as The monk is gone. Z1z
Zhu Di did not comment on these claims after he succeeded to the throne, but there was still a trace of concern in his heart. After all, he had grabbed the throne. Some pedantic ministers in the DPRK have used the ridiculous ancestral system for Zhu Yunshou to make trouble and scold themselves. If Zhu Yunzhen really came back that day, the throne would not be very stable. So he ordered the guards to search for the traces of Zhu Yunshao. But one year passed, two years passed, until Zhu Di died or even after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yunqi's traces were not there. To this day, Zhu Yunzhen is also the most mysterious emperor in history. No one knows whether he was alive or dead in that palace change. Even if he escaped, people didn't know where he lived and where he was buried.
Regarding the whereabouts of Zhu Yunqi, an old man named Rang Qingguang once told the media that he is Zhu Yunqi’s fifteenth-generation grandson. According to the family elders from generation to generation, Zhu Yunxuan escaped as a monk. After leaving the imperial city, he floated around and changed his name to let Luang marry a wife and have children. After Zhu Yunqi died, his family buried him in Hongshan in Wuchang. Let Qingguang's uncle once wrote an article in order to prove that he is the descendant of Zhu Yunqi, but in the end, no one paid attention to it.
However, some people began to question the authenticity of Lang Qingguang’s words, because Zhu Yunqi’s tomb was not found in Hongshan in Wuchang. And there are not a few people who rely on Zhu Yunshou's whereabouts to win their eyes. The traces of Zhu Yun's palace after the change and the whereabouts of his cemetery may become a mystery that can never be solved, or the truth will surface in the near future.
