Chapter 40: The First Unsolved Case of the Ming Dynasty

"If you are not mistaken, it is very likely to be the tomb of Emperor Jianwen. ”

Zhao Tianming replied, that is an unsolved case in history! Maybe this time we will be able to solve that historical mystery!

"Who is Emperor Jianwen?" Liang Yin was also curious.

You say that the emperor's other name, in fact, many people don't know, and what they can remember are only a few more famous, such as Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Tang Taizong, Kangxi, Qianlong, etc.

"The second emperor of the Ming Dynasty is the grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, the one who was plotted by his uncle Zhu Di to seize power not long after he became emperor. Zhao Tianming said to her.

"Love Through Time and Space TV series, a male protagonist in it?"

This time, it was Wan Qingguo, Hong Jianzhen and others who were stunned. What TV series, they haven't watched it, even if they do, can they remember it?

On the contrary, Zhao Tianming has a little impression that there is such a TV series, which is about the story of a cultural relics thief and policewoman Zhang Chuchu who fought over the cultural relics "Dream Fairy Pillow" in the Ming Dynasty cultural relics exhibition, and as a result, they traveled together to the early Ming Dynasty and fell in love with Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Di respectively. The plot is based on comedy and is a masterpiece of time-traveling dramas.

At the beginning, this TV series was quite popular, and it was also one of the earliest and most successful time-traveling dramas.

Historically, Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts have become a mystery, and some people say that he was burned to death in the palace. But even if he was burned to death in the palace, Zhu Di wanted to be the emperor and have a good reputation, so he should be buried thickly, but the tomb of Emperor Jianwen has not been found. Zhao Tianming said.

In the TV series, the plot is a bit bloody, and Emperor Jianwen finally followed another woman back to modern times, so he found Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts.

Hong Jianzhen nodded and explained to everyone a little excitedly.

After the Jingyan Change, Emperor Jianwen mysteriously disappeared and his whereabouts were unknown, becoming the first unsolved case in the Ming Dynasty.

The "History of the Ming Dynasty" gives three contradictory statements: one is the self-immolation of the palace, the second is the exile overseas, and the third is the monkhood of the Xun country. So, was Emperor Jianwen alive or dead, and if he was still alive at that time, where did he go?

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang began to set the tradition for the dynasty, that is, to appoint Zhu Yunwen's father Zhu Biao as the crown prince, because Zhu Biao was his eldest son.

Zhu Yuanzhang's goal was to establish a formal principle for the legal succession to the throne, hoping to put an end to future disputes over the succession to the throne.

Zhu Biao was in many ways unlike his father: he was mild-mannered and cultured, but not very brave. Although Ming Taizu was deeply impressed by the military talents of his fourth son, Zhu Di, he still regarded Zhu Biao as the most suitable successor for the sake of the dynasty.

However, providence made people, Zhu Biao died in the prime of life, and he went earlier than Zhu Yuanzhang.

According to the principle, if the eldest son is not there, the eldest son and grandson should be established, but Zhu Biao's eldest son died early, and Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhu Yunwen, the second grandson of the eldest son, was very filial and liked it very much, and later made him the grandson.

The young emperor's docile personality and Confucian education led to his heartfelt desire to practice the ideal benevolent government. He tried to bring about some major changes in the words and actions of the government, but those changes have had disastrous consequences.

"The emperor began to consider how to increase his power while weakening the power of the feudal kingdoms, and took drastic action against the smaller and weaker vassal kings on either false or unfounded charges. Within a year, after five important feudal feuds had been abolished, King Yan was the next target. Hong Jianzhen said.

Acknowledging that he was the most formidable enemy, the court acted cautiously, but this gave the Yan king time to gather his forces and prepare.

Speaking of which, in history, in order to consolidate his position, the emperors fought very harshly, even if everyone was related by blood, a single thought could make many people's heads fall to the ground.

"After King Yan was forced to rebel, one bucket was three years. At that time, Emperor Jianwen's military strength was several times that of King Yan, and there was also the support of the national finance. However, King Yan's military ability was really too strong, and with the prolongation of the war, the shortcomings of improper command of the imperial court, weak troops, and internal laxity seriously affected the battle situation. Until the defeat was gradually retreated, many generals surrendered to the king of Yan. ”

When King Yan broke through the capital, the palace suddenly caught fire, and a fire burned the palace compound to ashes.

When the fire was extinguished, several charred remains were found in the ashes, which were no longer recognizable, according to the eunuchs, as the bodies of the emperor, empress and his eldest son, Zhu Wenkui. But no one can be sure whether he was actually burned to death.

Later, historians who were sympathetic to his imperial cause said that he fled Nanjing disguised as a monk. The official record at the time, of course, can only say that the emperor and his eldest son died. Otherwise, it would be impossible for King Yan to be the emperor in the name of the right.

This matter, not to mention in the province, is a major archaeological event in the country, Hong Jianzhen reported it immediately, hoping to organize an archaeological team to carry out archaeological excavation of the ancient tomb.

Wan Qingguo and the others continue to track down the cultural relics theft and sale gang, hoping to arrest all the members!

Zhao Tianming was retained, but Hong Jianzhen was too busy now, and I hope that Zhao Tianming can assist Wan Qingguo's action group to find other cultural relics as much as possible.

When he learned the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen's mausoleum, Hong Jianzhen couldn't bear to shift his focus to archaeology. Solving the unsolved case of the Ming Dynasty is one of everyone's dreams.

Next, I want Mr. Zhao to support a lot. Wan Qingguo said politely.

Anyway, people have no obligation to help them, but for the sake of Hong Jianzhen's face, Zhao Tianming agreed. In fact, in his heart, Zhao Tianming also wanted to see the mausoleum of Emperor Jianwen, but he knew that he was not qualified to join in for the time being. Unless, he agreed to Hong Jianzhen's invitation to work in the cultural relics department. But that's not possible.

"I'll do my best! "Occupying too much time for himself, Zhao Tianming didn't agree.

"Don't worry! My people have already started to close the net. Wan Qingguo said.

They have been preparing for a long time to lay this net. Now, it's time to close the net. In order to prevent those people and dogs from jumping off the wall and escaping directly abroad, Wan Qingguo wasted a lot of brain cells.

He arranged for the female police officer Liang Yin to follow Zhao Tianming, first, he could protect Zhao Tianming, and second, he felt that arranging a female police officer to follow Zhao Tianming could also allow Zhao Tianming to help with snacks, after all, the beautiful woman was watching from the side, you can't be too perfunctory, right?

It's just that this arrangement makes Liang Yin very dissatisfied, she hopes to catch people, not stay as a liaison officer. However, obeying the principle of superiors and organizational arrangements made her grit her teeth and accept this task.

As for Zhao Tianming, it doesn't matter.
