Zhu Cunji, the second son of Ming Taizu Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and the tenth grandson of Qin Min Wang Zhu Ping and Qin Jing Wang Zhu Cunji, are not recorded in the history of the Ming Dynasty, but "Xianning County Chronicles and Mausoleum Epitaphs" quote "Shaanxi General Chronicles". Around the forty-eighth year of Wanli, Zhu Cunji could inherit the throne. However, as we all know, in 1620 AD, the forty-eighth year of Wanli, Shenzong and Guangzong died one after another. Two major cases, Hongwan and Palace Relocation, occurred one after another in the Ming Dynasty. In the ups and downs of the central government, Under the influence of the storm, Zhu Cunji became unknown
Zhu Cunji (May 8, 1595 - March 17, 1641) was the third son of Zhu Yishu, King Su of Qin in the Ming Dynasty. Concubine Zhang. The "History of the Ming Dynasty" does not record his title, but there is a record of his title as a county king in the "Ming Dynasty Record", and the books "Xianning County Chronicles and Tombs" and "Shaanxi Tongzhi" contain his name and title . According to the "Epitaph of King Qin Jing of the Ming Dynasty" currently in the Chang'an Museum of Shanxi Province, Zhu Cunji was born on the fifth day of August in the twenty-third year of Wanli (May 8, 1959).
On the first day of September in the second year of Chongzhen (October 16, 1962), he was canonized as the Crown Prince of Qin, and on June 25, the twelfth year of Chongzhen (July 25, 1639), he was granted the title of King of Qin. . He died of illness on the seventh day of February in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen (March 17, 1641) at the age of forty-seven. Female one is not feeling well. His posthumous title was King Qin Jing. He had no children and was succeeded by his younger brother Zhu Cunji, King of Qin. He was buried in Yang in Weiquli on the third day of the first lunar month in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen (February 7, 1642). The Falling Sunset: The Biography of Zhu Cunji, King of Qin Jing, the Biography of Zhu Cunshu, the Late King of Qin, and the Hereditary Chart of Qin’s Vassal Kings. There is no record of Qin Jing Wang Zhu Cunji in Ming history, but "Xianning County Chronicles and Mausoleum Epitaphs" quoted from "Shaanxi General Chronicles" clearly states: "The tomb of King Xuan of Qin is in Gaowangdui, and there is also King Zhu Jing of Qin Jing not far away. The tombs of Rong, King Jing of Qin Zhu Yichan (Yi Fang), King Su of Qin Zhu Yikao (Yi Piao), and King Jing of Qin Zhu Cunji are all there." In all the hereditary information about the King of Qin on the Internet, there is almost no record of the Qin Jing King Zhu Cunji. Moreover, in a lot of information, the posthumous title Su of Qin Su King Zhu Yifan is almost not recorded. It is only in the list of Qin vassal states in the wekipedia encyclopedia. , there are records of Zhu Cunji. I personally think that Zhu Cunji was the king of Qin for a while. King Su of Qin Zhu Yiming died in the forty-sixth year of Wanli. The normal rule is that one should observe filial piety for three years, that is, around the forty-eighth year of Wanli, Zhu Cunji can However, as we all know, in 1620 AD, the forty-eighth year of Wanli, Shenzong and Guangzong passed away one after another. Two major cases, Hongwan and Palace Relocation, occurred one after another in the Ming Dynasty. Under the influence of the ups and downs of the central government, Zhu Cun The machine became extremely obscure. His posthumous title is Jing, which means Jing from justice, Jing from righteousness and great considerations, and Jing from Buyi Xinggang. Helping from righteousness means using righteousness to achieve career. Those who are willing to help others out of morality are called Jing. Qi means great care, Qi means strong, is able to think things through and handle things properly, it is called Jing. Buyi Xinggang means to act righteously with firmness, adhere to principles, pay attention to loyalty, and act decisively, it is called Jing. As for the tomb of King Qin Jing recorded in the records at Quebuyuan in Gaowangdui, no remains can be found today. Zhu Cunji can be said to be the real prince forgotten by history...a sunset that sank with the Ming Empire in the dusk. The picture is of Zhu Cunji’s father, King Qinsu Zhu Yizhu.
The last king of Qin Zhu Cunshu, many historical records say that he succeeded the king of Qin in the last year of Wanli. I think it should be Zhu Cunji, king of Qin Jing, who succeeded the king of Qin in the last year of Wanli, and then died of illness. His posthumous name was Jing (given by Emperor Xizong Tianqi or Yizong). Given by Emperor Chongzhen), Zhu Cunshu should have inherited the Qin throne between Tianqi and Chongzhen. During the Chongzhen period, there were severe droughts in Shaanxi and Shanxi, rogue bandits broke out everywhere, and the world was in chaos. In the 16th year of Chongzhen, the intruder Li Zicheng attacked Xi'an. The guard Wang Genzi was dissatisfied with the army's pay. He shot an arrow outside the city and sent a message to surrender. The rebels invaded Xi'an from the west gate, north gate and south gate. Zhu Cunshu tried to attack Xi'an from the east gate. He fled out of the gate, but failed because there were too many troops. He was captured by the rebels. Also captured was Zhu Yijun, the prince of Yongshou County. It is worth mentioning that Princess Liu of Qin, seeing that the situation was over, said, "What will happen if the country is destroyed?" To survive? So she hanged herself, what a chaste and fierce woman! In order to enhance the appeal of the bandit army, the intruders made Zhu Cunshu the general of Quan and Zhu Yijun the general of the system, incorporated them into the army, and forced them to attack Beijing together. In May of the 17th year of the Chongzhen reign of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng's bandits were defeated and retreated from Beijing. The whereabouts of Zhu Cunshu, Zhu Yijun and others are unknown.
There is also a saying that Zhu Cunshu, Zhu Yijun and others surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but were soon killed by the Manchu Qing soldiers in Beijing together with Zhu Changzi, the king of Lu who later surrendered. The time was the second year of Yongli in the Ming Dynasty, which was about the third year of Shunzhi in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. I think the second possibility is very high. The Manchu Qing Dynasty slaughtered the Ming Dynasty clan, but naturally they did not dare to record it, and they still recorded it openly in the history of the Ming Dynasty.
Among the Qin vassal clan, the more famous one is Wang Chenglu of Qinyang. He is the grandson of Zhu Zhijie, the king of Qin Kang, and the son of Zhu Gongluo, the first king of Qinyang. He is a famous filial son who serves his father and the emperor. My stepmother was very respectful. My father was ill and she had been serving her carefully, even to the point where she didn't dare to go to bed. After my father died, I was so sad that I couldn't eat. The next year, daylilies bloomed in the snow on my father's tomb, and strange flowers and grasses grew. , and it bears two ears at a time, and very beautiful birds sing on the soil. Local officials reported the matter to the court, and Emperor Xiaozong gave Chengli a special commendation. This filial son reigned for five years and died in the fifteenth year of Hongzhi. His posthumous title was Anyu, which means peace and harmony. Born with few interruptions. He is a kind-hearted person who doesn't argue with others. Rarely decisive. And the noble character is called Yu. Regarding the tombs of King Mianyang, the tombs of Chengli's father Zhu Gongchui and Chengli's son Zhu Bingtu have been excavated. They are now about 500 meters west of Jinhutuo Village, Qujiang Township, Yanta District, Xi'an. Next to the excavated tomb of Zhu Gongju, king of Ming Dynasty, in September 2003, the tomb of Zhu Bingtu, the king of Ming Dynasty, the Ji family's tomb of Zhu Bingtu's concubine, and the Ma family's tomb of Concubine Zhu Gongju (that is, Zhu Bingtu's grandmother) were discovered and excavated. These four tombs are all brick chamber tombs with long slope tomb passages, facing north and south, and the tomb passages are located in the south of the tomb chambers. They all have epitaphs. They provide new physical information for studying the history, funeral system and funeral customs of the Ming Dynasty. In particular, the painted coffin unearthed from Zhu Bingqi's tomb is an extremely precious historical relic in our country. Another filial son is General Zhu Binghua, who was studious and cautious in his behavior. When his father was sick, he knelt in front of the statue to pray for his father and was willing to endure the pain on his father's behalf. His father's illness unexpectedly recovered. Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty heard about it and rewarded him.
