The Battle of Jingyan was a military coup d'état between Zhu Yuanzhang's son and grandson in the early Ming Dynasty. With the end of the incident, the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di succeeded to the throne, and the Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen also withdrew from the stage of history.

But in the early days of Zhu Di's ascension to the throne, there was a rare incident of exterminating the ten tribes in ancient and modern times, and the protagonist of this event was a generation of great Confucian Fang Xiaoru, who was the first Confucian student in the world in the Ming Dynasty, with noble character and peach and plum all over the world.

Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen respected Fang Xiaoru very much, and even asked Fang Xiaoru's opinion on major events in the world.

Later, Zhu Di launched a coup d'état, Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts are unknown, and after Zhu Di ascended the throne, Fang Xiaoru was unyielding, and was executed by Zhu Di, and was connected to the ten clans.

Next, I will discuss the specific details of the extermination of the Ten Clans with you. Before Zhu Di raised his army, a strategist Yao Guangxiao said to him: There is a great Confucian named Fang Xiaoru in the court, who is very knowledgeable and very virtuous, and in the future, His Royal Highness will seize the world, he will not be attached, but His Highness must not kill him, kill him, and the seeds of the world's scholars will be extinct.

Later, Zhu Di succeeded in the uprising and became the emperor. Considering that Fang Xiaoru was a generation of Confucianism, Zhu Di summoned Fang Xiaoru to draft an edict on his accession.

But after this Fang Xiaoru arrived at the court, he cried bitterly in front of Zhu Di, and Zhu Di began to comfort at first, after all, Fang Xiaoru is a generation of loyal and good Confucians.

But many times of persuasion were fruitless, and even Fang Xiaoru insulted Zhu Di for seeking the throne, and Zhu Di found out that Fang Xiaoru was a loyal supporter of Emperor Jianwen.

And he would rather die than draft an edict, Zhu Di was angry and said: This is my family matter, you don't care.

Fang Xiaoru was not afraid, but in the end, Zhu Di asked him if he was not afraid of the Zhulian Nine Clans, but Fang Xiaoru said what about the Zhulian Ten Clans.

As a result, Zhu Di, who couldn't bear it, was furious and ordered to destroy his ten clans. Among them, this so-called tenth clan includes Fang Xiaoru's teachers and students.

According to historical records, a total of 873 people were killed in Fang Xiaoru's case, and thousands of people were imprisoned or exiled to the army.

And there are two versions of Fang Xiaoru's death. There are two official histories of the Ming Dynasty, one is the history of the Ming Dynasty written by Zhang Tingyu, a famous minister of the Qing Dynasty, and the other is the Ming Record of the Ming Dynasty, which records that Fang Xiaoru was killed in the city for the crime of treachery, so it can be seen that Fang Xiaoru should have been executed by Ling Chi.

But there are historical records that Fang Xiaoru was beheaded at that time, and after being beheaded, Fang Xiaoru could still support the ground with his elbow, and wrote twelve and a half usurpers in blood, and finally died of death.

Of course, I think this was later made up by Ming Dynasty novelists. Fang Xiaoru's death is generally seen by modern people as having these attitudes, Fang Xiaoru is for the national loyalty festival and supports the orthodoxy of the feudal period.

But it can also be said that he repays Zhu Yunwen for his kindness, and some people think that he is foolish. But I think Zhu Di's accession to the throne violated the feudal moral etiquette, so I said that Fang Xiaoru's death was due to the feudal system.

Looking at Chinese history closely, there are many people who were exterminated by the nine tribes, but Fang Xiaoru was finally exterminated by the ten tribes. Let me first talk about what are the nine clans, generally the nine clans are the father's clan, the mother's clan, and the wife's clan, of which the father's clan includes parents, brothers, sisters, sons, married aunts and their sons, married sisters and their nephews, the mother's clan includes the maternal grandfather's family, the maternal grandmother's maiden family, aunt and her son, the wife's family includes the father-in-law's family and the mother-in-law's maiden family, and finally Fang Xiaoru's tenth clan is his protégé, including his teacher.

But I think his teacher died at that time. The ancients regarded nine as the extreme, and the nine clans were also the highest punishment, but in the end, Yongle Emperor Zhu Di wiped out Fang Xiaoru's ten clans.

The plot is indeed very cruel, just because he refused to submit to Zhu Di and was finally executed at Ling Chi, but I think Zhu Di is suspected of killing a hundred people.

Fang Xiaoru's so-called unyielding spirit of preferring to die is indeed worthy of admiration by many people, but I am not one of these many people.

I think I've pulled in so many of my relatives and friends because of myself. Is this really a wise decision?

If you want me to say that Fang Xiaoru can pay attention to his own method of protecting the festival, he can learn loyalty by himself and crash into the pillar and die, and learn Qu Yuan to drown in the river.

So, can the remaining 873 people avoid being implicated? However, in the end, this exterminator will not be passed down to this day.
