Ning Wang Zhu Quan is the seventeenth son of Emperor Taizu, Hongwu 24 years in Daning, named King Ning, is one of the nine kings of the border Sai, Hongwu 26 years on the domain, under the Mongolian Duoyan Sanwei, plus their own people, about 50,000 people, can be described as strong soldiers. In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, after the death of Taizu, the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne as Emperor Jianwen. In view of the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty, Emperor Jianwen began to reduce the feudal domain of his uncles soon after he ascended the throne. It seems right to cut the feudal domain today, and the great tomorrow cannot be full of princes and fall apart. But Emperor Jianwen was a little anxious, and the throne was not stable, so he began to forcibly cut the domain, which would only become more and more chaotic.

In the first year of Jianwen, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, launched a four-year battle of Jingjing. Zhu Di once discussed with the generals: "In the past, when I inspected the plug, I saw that the Daning army was very fierce. If I can get Daning, cut off Liaodong, and use side horses to help the war, it will be a great thing. "For Zhu Di, the king of Yan, he very much wants to get the help of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning. In the end, in order to make Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, support him willingly, Zhu Di promised that after the matter was completed, he would share the world equally with the king of Ning. So, the question is, after Zhu Di raised his army, he agreed to share the world equally with King Ning, so what was the final outcome of King Ning?

After Zhu Di, the king of Yan, raised troops, Zhu Yunwen, the Jianwen Emperor, was also worried that King Ning would respond to Zhu Di. So, Emperor Jianwen sent someone to summon Zhu Quan back to Beijing, but before Zhu Quan set off, Emperor Jianwen ordered the cancellation of King Ning's three guards. This is obviously a lack of power, and he is still thinking about suppressing Ning Wang Zhu Quan, which will undoubtedly cause him to fall more to Zhu Di, the king of Yan.

On July 22 of the first year of Jianwen, the governors Liu Zhen and Chen Heng; All commanded Bu Wan to lead the Daning troops, out of Songting Pass, stationed in Shahe, and attacked Zunhua.

In September of the same year, Wu Gao, Marquis of Jiangyin, attacked Yongping, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, went to the rescue. Wu Gao retreated, and Zhu Di took a small road from Liujiakou to Daning, falsely claiming that he came to ask for help because he was poor.

In the face of Zhu Di, the fourth brother, Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, naturally had no defense, after all, he was also quite resistant to his nephew Zhu Yunwen's behavior of cutting the domain.

Zhu Quan invited Zhu Di to ride into the city alone, Zhu Di held Zhu Quan's hand and cried, telling that he had to raise troops as a last resort, and begged him to draft a chapter to apologize for his crimes. Zhu Di lived for a few days, and Zhu Quan treated each other sincerely and was defenseless. However, at this time, Zhu Di had already quietly let his subordinates go to Daning. Moreover, Zhu Di also secretly colluded with and bribed King Ning's subordinates. When everything was ready and only the east wind was owed, Zhu Di said goodbye and left, Zhu Quan went to the suburbs to feed him, and the ambush soldiers took the opportunity to rise up and hug Zhu Quan forward. The three guards and the guards gathered in one call. The guard Zhu Jian couldn't resist and died in battle. The princesses and concubines of the palace all followed into Songting Pass and returned to Beiping, and Daning became an empty city. After Zhu Quan was held hostage by Zhu Di, he could only go down with Zhu Di. Zhu Quan often drafted essays for Zhu Di. In order to appease this brother, Zhu Di promised Zhu Quan that after the matter was completed, the world would be divided equally. At the end of the third year of Jianwen, Zhu Di learned that Nanjing was empty and profitable, and decided to change the strategy of moving forward step by step, and instead went straight to Huanglong. In the first month of the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di led his division south. In April of the same year, he broke He Fu and Ping'an Army. In May, Kesi Prefecture and Xuyi, the soldiers pointed to Yangzhou. After learning the news that Zhu Di was about to attack Nanjing, Emperor Jianwen sent the county lord of Qingcheng to Yan Shi, hoping to cede the land and sue for peace, but Zhu Di, the king of Yan, obviously would not agree.

In June of the fourth year of Jianwen, Chen Xuan, the governor of Jiangfang, descended to Yan with a boat division, and the Yan division crossed the river, went down to Zhenjiang, and approached Nanjing. The king of the valley, Zhu Lu and Li Jinglong, opened the Jinchuan Gate and surrendered, the city of Nanjing fell, the palace was on fire, and Zhu Yunwen did not know what to do. In June of the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di was the emperor in Fengtian Hall in Nanjing, and he was Emperor Taizong. After Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, he naturally would not fulfill his promise to King Ning. Correspondingly, Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, did not dare to ask Emperor Taizong to honor it, after all, he was already very clear about the character of this fourth brother.

After Emperor Taizong ascended the throne and became emperor, Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, took the initiative to request to change the title of the south, so that the side plug will be handed over to your fourth brother, and I will stay under your nose, okay. Emperor Taizong understood his younger brother's thoughts to some extent, so he smiled and asked where to go? King Ning chose Suzhou, which is the south of the Yangtze River and a land of wealth, and Emperor Taizong replied: "Suzhou belongs to Jinnei." "The implication is, you can't go, that's mine. King Ning asked for Qiantang, that is, Hangzhou, and Emperor Taizong said: "My father gave it to my fifth brother, but it was fruitless." Emperor Jianwen had no way, and he made his brother king in Qiantang, but he also failed to enjoy it. So, let's give it to the fifth brother! "King Ning gave up his own choice, fourth brother, where you let me go, go wherever I want! In the end, after some tossing, Emperor Taizong decided to change the title of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, to Nanchang.

If you continue to let Ning Wang Zhu Quan guard the border, it will naturally not reassure Emperor Taizong. Therefore, if it is renamed to the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, it can also justifiably take away the Zhu power of King Ning, and avoid another rebellion of the vassal king in the Ming Dynasty.

On February 12 of the first year of Yongle, Emperor Taizong withered and changed the palace of Ning to Nanchang. Emperor Taizong personally wrote a poem to see him off, and ordered Zhu Quan to take the political secretary as his palace, and the scale of the building did not change.

It is worth noting that Emperor Taizong rebelled because Emperor Jianwen cut down the domain. However, when he ascended the throne, not only did he not oppose the reduction of the feudal domain, but insisted on this strategy.

In addition to changing the fief of King Ning, during the reign of Emperor Taizong, King Zhu Lu of the Valley moved from the important town of Xuanfu to Changsha, Zhu Zhi, the king of Liao, moved from the important town of Guangning to Jingzhou in the interior, and the fief of Zhu Song, the king of Han, moved from Kaiyuan to Pingliang.

At the same time, the guards of the Dai Wang, the Min Wang, the Liao Wang, and Zhu Di's half-brother Zhou Wang were all stripped away, so that the military power in their hands was not enough to compete with the imperial court.

After Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, came to Nanchang, someone accused Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, saying that he slandered others. In this regard, Emperor Taizong sent Jinyi Wei to investigate, and the result was nonsense. But it also sounded a wake-up call to King Ning, Emperor Taizong can arrest you anytime and anywhere.

Since then, Zhu Quan has been in obscurity all day long, and built a study, playing the piano and reading in the meantime, so during the reign of Emperor Taizong, Zhu Quan did not suffer disasters.

Zhu Quan not only failed to share the world equally with Emperor Taizong, but was suppressed, which can be described as walking on thin ice. During the reign of Renzong Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Quannai wrote that Nanchang was not his fiefdom and hoped to change the feud elsewhere. Renzong replied: "Nanchang, my uncle has been entitled from the emperor for more than 20 years, and if it is not a feudal country, what is it?" In the third year of Xuande, Zhu Quan asked Xuanzong to increase his fiefdom. In this regard, Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji was very angry and blamed Zhu Quan. So, Zhu Quan wrote to apologize, and he didn't dare to ask the court anymore. So, he began to concentrate on cultivating the Tao and did not ask about the world.

In addition, Zhu Quan was ordered to edit two volumes of "Tongjian Bo Theory", and wrote six articles of "Family Motto", seventy-four chapters of "Ning Guoyi Fan", two volumes of "Secret History of the Han and Tang Dynasties", one volume of "Historical Judgment", eight volumes of "Literary Spectrum", one volume of "Poetry Spectrum", and dozens of other records and compilations. In the thirteenth year of orthodoxy, during the reign of Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Quan died. For Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, he lived for more than seventy years, which is undoubtedly a relatively long life among the many children of Emperor Taizu.

For Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, although there were no more complaints in the second half of his life, Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, was still dissatisfied with Zhu Di and his descendants, after all, Zhu Di was able to defeat Zhu Yunwen, and King Ning's subordinates also played a role. However, after the deed, Ning Wang Zhu Quan not only did not gain any benefits, but was strictly guarded, which is difficult for most people to accept. This kind of resentment can be imagined, and it has gradually been passed down in the line of King Ning, and this may also explain why his descendant, Zhu Chenhao, King of Ning, rebelled. In the fourteenth year of Zhengde, Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, rebelled with 100,000 troops, but it ended in failure, and the feudal state left by Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, was abolished.

This is also a later story, when I first came into contact with the people of King Ning's Mansion in the winter of the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, I only regarded them as ordinary vassal kings.
