There are still people worshiping and guarding the tomb of King Ming in Nanchang, Jiangxi. These people are descendants of Ning Fan, which means that although King Ning's rebellion until Ning Fan was expelled, the descendants of King Ning were not purged. The culprit, Zhu Chenhao, was captured and put to death and burned his body to dust. The Ning princes fell to the ground. Except for the concubine, the concubine was forced to remarry, or his whereabouts were unknown. After Ning State was removed, the three kings divided and ruled the land. Ning Fan’s authentic sect was considered to be the end, but Ning Fan also had the land of collateral branches, and it was not entirely implicated.
Ning Fan's origin
Zhu Yuanzhang built a system to maintain the rule of the Zhu family after the founding of the country, and finally created the prince's enfeoffment system, and the northern border was unstable after the founding of the country Zhu Yuanzhang supplemented it with the Zongwang out-of-town system and formed the so-called "Prince of Jiusai". Among them, the king of Peking Yan, Ning King of Daning, King Jin of Taiyuan, King of Datong, King of Liao of Guangning, King of Xian, King of Xuanfu Valley, King of Ganzhou, King of Ningxia, King of Pingliang, King of Kaiping , Shenyang King Shen, Kaiyuan Han King, distributed on the Mobei border line from northeast to northwest. Because they have military power and guard the frontier fortresses, they are called the kings of the Sai. Each palace is equipped with three guards, commanders, two guards, and a guard. There are about 10,000 people.
Zhu Yuanzhang has 42 children, including 26 princes. Among the princes, the eldest son Zhu Biao was established as the prince. The 26th prince Zhu Nan was born more than a month before he died and was not sealed, and the remaining 24 people All are princes. Zhu Quan, the 16th son of Zhu Yuanzhang, was made King of Ning in April of the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu (1391). Three years later, he became a feudal clan. Daning is located near Ningcheng in today's Inner Mongolia, outside the mouth of Xifeng. It is absolute It was an important military town, so King Ning could "carry 80,000 armors and 6,000 leather chariots." His Doyan Sanwei cavalry was even the elite of the Ming Dynasty cavalry.
Zhu Di, who is also the king of Serbia, wanted to win over King Ning when he raised his troops, so he promised to "make things happen, and divide the world." Therefore, King Ning gave Zhu Di a great assist in the crisis. On the support of soldiers and horses, Zhu Quan helped to draft the Jing Nan essay. However, after Zhu Di became the emperor, it was impossible to divide the world. Zhu Quan also understood the truth of rabbits and dogs, so he took the initiative to lift his military power and wanted to move his vassal to Suzhou and Qiantang to maintain his life. Although Zhu Di had the desire to move the king within, it was impossible to follow the request of the king, so he eventually placed King Ning in Nanchang. This incident was actually the beginning of the conflict between King Ning's family and the emperor. Not only did Zhu Di's promise not be fulfilled, but the request made by King Ning was not recognized. This family was "sent" to Nanchang.
宁 Fanline
Zhu Yuanzhang thought out the genealogy for his descendants when he was alive. In order not to let his descendants repeat their names, he gave each clan branch. The two crosses are proposed to represent seniority. It also stipulates that fire, earth, gold, water, and wood are the names of the characters, and the generation plus the name forms the full name of each clan branch. Zhu Quan can be regarded as the ancestor of Ning Fan. The generations of this branch are divided into "Pan Dian Gong Chen Gong, in the process of multi-planning, the general will be added to the broad, philosophical and intimate." Zhu Quan’s five sons were all named county kings, the eldest son Zhu Panxuan was the king of Ninghui, the second son Zhu Panye was the king of Linchuan Kangxi; the third son Zhu Panxuan was the king of Yichun Anjian; the fourth son Zhu Panyu was the king of Xinchang Anxi; The fifth son, Zhu Pan, mourns the King Hui for Xinfeng.
Zhu Panyang was originally the elder son and very wise, but he failed to survive his father. In the second year of orthodox (1437), King Xianning passed away and failed to ascend the title. Therefore, the second generation of King Ning was inherited by Zhu Quan's eldest grandson Zhu Dianpei, who was also the eldest son of Zhu Panzhang. Later King Ning was inherited from this line, similar to Zhu Yunxuan's succession to the throne after Zhu Biao's death. Zhu Dianpei served as King Ning for a total of 43 years. After the death of Hongzhi in the fourth year (1491), his concubine Zhu Gongjun succeeded to the throne of Ning. Zhu Zengjun died after only five years of reign, and the throne was replaced by his eldest son Zhu Chen. Hao inherited.
"Chen Hao Shi Zi outside does not ask for a name. Covered with strange ideas. It wants to give its own name every day. It also establishes a country. The Forbidden City is suspended to travel. Said a brother and a brother cloud."— —"Yong Zhuang Xiaopin"
Zhu Chenhao is a very ambitious person, but he met an opponent like Wang Yangming during the uprising.These untimely lives, more than 30 days of rebellion were put down by Wang Yangming, who was not in control. The result was that Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty expelled King Ning and became a general. Zhu Chenhao and his sons were executed. It is worth mentioning that Zhu Chenhao’s son was not named in history. The "Yong Zhuang Xiaopin" explained that Zhu Chenhao had a conspiracy to rebel, so he gave several sons according to their size, such as the boss, The second child, his intention is to change the genealogy after he becomes the emperor and re-draw the descendant name genealogy. Therefore, the king of Yichun Zhu Gongxi is not his son, but Zhu Chenhu's son, who is considered Zhu Chenhao's cousin. As for Zhu Junzhao, these are purely fabricated, and this name does not conform to the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang. In addition, Princess Ning, the Lou family, committed suicide by throwing water into the water, Concubine Cui was taken over by a magistrate, Concubine Qu was promoted by the deputy secretary of Fujian City to lift Shu Fenner, and Zhu Chenhao was burned to dust after his death.
Ning Fan’s other ancestors
Zhu Chenhao’s rebellion made Jiajing Emperor to some extent, because Ming Wuzong was a cynical person, Wang Yangming captured Zhu Chen alive Hao couldn't solve the hatred in Wu Zong's heart, he had to go to court to experience the feeling of counterinsurgency. That is to say, on the journey of triumphant victory against the rebellion, Ming Wuzong traveled to Zhenjiang and fell into the water at Guazhou. Soon after returning to Beijing, he died, and then Emperor Jiajing came to the throne. In the early period of Jiajing, Ning Fan was not removed from the country, but a collateral system. For example, in the second year of Jiajing, King Geyang and Li Ning's affairs were used. This King Geyang was first Zhu Quan’s son, Zhu Dianpei’s younger brother, Zhu Diangui. When the line came to the Chen character generation, there was still a son, named Zhu Gongyu, and Emperor Jiajing used him as the "Ningfu Zongli", which means escrow.
After the death of Zhu Gongyu, the Emperor Jiajing selected another agent from another branch of the Ning Fan, namely, the king of Le'an Zhu Dianlei. He was also a grandson of Zhu Quan and was awarded the title of Jingtai for three years. The King of Le'an Zhaoding. In the twenty-fourth year of Jiajing, Zhu Dianlei-Zhu Gongyu, the son of Zhu Chenming's lineage, attacked the majesty. After the death of Zhu Gongyu in the thirty years of Jiajing, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Gongyu, king of Le'an, was named "Ningfu Zongli" ". Eight years later, when Zhu Gonglu died, Emperor Jiajing completely divided the eight branches of Ningguo by Jian'anguo, Le'anguo, and Geyangguo. So far, Ningguo Zongli was removed.
In addition to these three foreign countries, the other eight branches are Linchuan, Yichun, Xinchang, Xinfeng, Ruichang, Shicheng, Shanggao, and Zhongling. Among them, Linchuan was the fief of Zhu Quanhui's second son, Zhu Panhui, but the two Linchuan kings were demoted to prostitution due to their crimes. There was no documentary record of heirs in Gongzi's generation, and it is likely that they have been in a state of "zongli". Yichun State was the fief of Zhu Quanshu's third son, Zhu Panxuan. This lineage was still renewed until the third year of Yongli in the Nanming Dynasty. The Xinchang Kingdom of Zhu Panyu, the fourth son of the concubine, and the Xinfeng Kingdom of Zhu Panyu, the fifth son of the concubine, were eliminated because of no children.
Ruichang State was founded by the grandson of Zhu Quan, that is, the two sons of Zhu Panzhang first named the king of Ruichang, but the literature only knows that it is a generation, and the specific name is missed. When Zhu Chenhao rebelled, King Ruichang was Zhu Gongzhu. He was one of the people who had been in the rebellion, so he killed himself and sent his son to Fengyang to take care of the ancestral tomb. Ruichang Kingdom did not remove the country, but by the sideline of Zongli. It was not renewed until the Longwu period. However, this line is no longer the original line, but the Zongli line was officially renewed, that is, Zhu Chenwo Disan This line of Zizhu Gongshu. Ruichang Kingdom passed to Nanming and reached the middle-class generation. The last King Ruichang missed the test, but his father, the penultimate King Ruichang, was named Zhu Yili, who was in the second year of Longwu (1646) in the battle against the Qing Dynasty. Dead in battle.
Same as Ruichang State is Zhongling State. This is the fief of Zhu Dianpei’s three sons, Zhu Guzhu. The second generation of Zhongling King was named Zhu Chenyu, and both father and son were in Hongzhishi. In the eighth year (1505), he was convicted, and he was abolished as a common man and then taken to Fengyang to take care of the ancestral tomb. It's just that Zhong Lingguo didn't implement the patriarchal principle, and after a generation and a half passed on, he eliminated the country. The Shicheng Kingdom is also similar to the Ruichang Kingdom. This is the confinement of Zhu Diandu, the fourth son of Zhu Panzhang. In the Wanli reign, Zhu Duosong, a sideline of the Ning Fan, continued to worship the king of Shicheng. Later, he was relegated to the ruler of Shicheng because of childlessness. The first ruler of Shicheng was named Zhu Mou㙔, and there was no record later. It was not until the third year of Yongli in the Southern Ming Dynasty that there is no record that the king of Shicheng, Zhu Yizi, launched an army against the Qing Dynasty in Datian, Fujian and died in battle. This may also be a claim to be a force for the army, because according to the genealogical query, his father Zhu Tongwei does not have the title of King Shicheng.
The more special is the Shanggao Kingdom. This is the temporary land of Zhu Dianpei’s eldest son Zhu Gjunjun when Zhu Dianpei was appointed king of Ning, that is, the prefecture established in the eighth year of Tianshun. After five years of confinement of Ning State, Zhu Chenhao became King of Shanggao. After Zhu Chenhao attacked Ning State to seal the land in Hongzhi's seventh year, the county prince was naturally abolished. It can also be said that Shanggao was eliminated in Zhu Chenhao’s generation. Country.
To sum up, Ning Fan is actually a huge system, which can also reflect the characteristics of the Ming dynasty's clan. The descendants of Zhu Yuanzhang's enfeoffment multiplied more and more, which brought great value to the Ming Dynasty. A heavy financial burden. The Ning Fan system was not completely liquidated due to Zhu Chenhao’s rebellion. It was just that a few typical cases were eliminated by Gejue. Those who did not directly participate in the rebels were sent to Fengyang to take care of the imperial tomb, just like Zhu Di abolished the son of Emperor Jianwen. Like the "Jian Shuren", they will not be killed all, after all, they are all of the blood of the old Zhu family. Today, in Nanchang, Jiangxi, some descendants of Zhu surname often visit the tomb of King Ning. There is also a natural village of Zhu family next to this tomb. It is said that the descendants of Zhuquan of Ning lived together.
