Why is history unfair to Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty and Zhu Qiyu?
Merits and demerits are judged by future generations. Historically, most of the comments on Emperor Taizong and Zhu Qiyu of Ming Dynasty were negative and unfair, especially in the Ming Dynasty after Zhu Qiyu's death. After the change of seizing the door, Yingzong was restored, which attacked and discredited Zhu Qiyu's supporters and achievements. The most obvious thing is to kill Yu Qian, who has made great contributions to the defense of Beijing, and slander the man of God.

Be discredited by Ming Yingzong.

After Ming Yingzong and Zhu Qizhen were reset, he wrote to reprimand Zhu Qiyu? Unfilial, unkind, unkind, unjust, indecent, and angry with God? , waste its emperor, give posthumous title for? Hey? , say? King? This is an evil obituary, which means that Zhu Qiyu was evil all his life and deprived him of the right to be buried in his ancestral grave after his death. Therefore, Zhu Qiyu was the only emperor who did not enter the mausoleum after the capital was moved in Ming Dynasty.

Be discredited by Empress Sun.

Sun Sun, the queen mother of Sun, wrote in the abolished imperial edict: Destroy laws and regulations and destroy the old system. Indulge in fornication, drinking, trusting traitors. Destroy the palace, defile the Lama, reward excessively, spend indiscriminately without scale, and extort excessively. Empty treasury, a drop in the ocean. Unfilial, heartless, unjust, notorious, the man of God * * * angry, furious, repeatedly lowered the omen, Zhu Qiyu did not know how to reflect, refused to remonstrate, whitewashed peace, and committed more and more crimes.

In a word, how ridiculous and vicious, the root cause of Queen Sun's slander on Zhu Qiyu is that Zhu Qiyu is not her son, and her son Zhu Qizhen was captured alive by Vala, and all the officials are worried about being suspected by the Lord and the country. Instead of making Zhu Qizhen's son emperor, he made his younger brother Zhu Qiyu reign, but Queen Sun reluctantly agreed and was disgusted. So once his son, Zhu Qizhen, is restored, how to vilify Zhu Qiyu viciously. In fact, Zhu Qiyu was a wise king in history. During his short rule in recent years, he was politically clear and harmonious, unlike the bad king who was evaluated by history.

When the Ming Dynasty was leaderless, Zhu Qiyu stepped forward. While reusing Yu Qian and other old ministers, he opposed moving south, stuck to Beijing, and practiced? The emperor protects the country and the king dies? Zuxun. At the same time, resisting the pressure and using the loyal ministers who have been persecuted since orthodoxy restored the clarity of the ruling and opposition parties to a certain extent, stabilized the people's hearts and maintained the stability of Daming Mountain. In a big way, Zhu Qiyu's contribution surpassed that of Zhu Zhanji and even that of Wanli Jiajing, because without him, Daming would exist in name only, and all the emperors were captured, repeating the shame of Jingkang.

Once the Ming Dynasty moved to the south, it was bound to be ruled by the river like the small court in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the disaster of "Five Chaos in China" would reappear. None of this can be erased. Therefore, to a great extent, Zhu Qiyu is a wise king, who has made great contributions throughout the ages. After eight years as emperor, his identity has been recognized by the people of the whole country. If he had not passed the throne childless, his achievements would have been recognized by later generations.
