Regarding some historical setting interpretations in the text

  Let's make clicks and likes come more fiercely!!!!

  Recently, many readers have asked the same question, which is why King Wang's fiefdom is in Kaifeng?

  I had also looked up a lot of information before writing this article. Historically, the King of Xin did have a fiefdom and even stayed there for a year. As far as I know, the King of Xin's fiefdom might be Kaifeng. However, people are suspicious that Kaifeng is not the fiefdom of the King of Zhou? My explanation is: Kaifeng was once designated by Zhu Yuanzhang as the capital city and named Beijing. After Zhu Yuanzhang officially established his capital in Nanjing, he gave Kaifeng to his fifth son, Zhu Su. However, after the Jingnan Rebellion, Yan Wang Zhu Di became emperor and naturally did not want any more vassal kings to rebel and seize power, so he took back the military and political powers of all the vassal kings. The local vassal kings were also not allowed to interfere with local military and political affairs. The country allocated money and grain to them every year, and they mostly had their own land, so life was relatively satisfying. There are few examples of vassal kings rebelling in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Youjian is also the fifth son, possibly coincidentally. Kaifeng was originally the first capital of the Ming Dynasty. The intention of Emperor Tianqi is unknown to us now. However, being enfeoffed does not mean that Kaifeng was handed over to him and nothing else was done. This nominal fiefdom has already become a mere formality. Therefore, when the King of Xin was enfeoffed in Kaifeng, it only meant that part of Kaifeng's land was given to him, not that Kaifeng was given to him entirely. I hope readers can understand this.

  There is also the issue of eunuchs calling themselves "nu bi", this is a bit of historical knowledge, I estimate that anyone who understands it will be able to understand, I won't explain further.

  Lan Tian Cao asked, since the Ming Dynasty, all princes and grandsons who had no hope of inheriting the throne were prohibited from learning cultural knowledge. Basically, they were raised as pigs. Any prince who had even a little bit of behavior that didn't conform to the rules would be caught by the omnipresent Embroidered Uniform Guards and put to death. As for Zhu Yinglong's actions in this book, he deserved only to be executed. Not to mention having the opportunity to become emperor after Zhu Yujian's death.

  This I can also explain, because Tianqi Emperor had no heir, so Zhu Youjian became the only candidate to inherit the throne. In history, there were ministers who petitioned for Xian Wang to give lectures outside the palace, which was something that only a crown prince could do. If Xian Wang knew nothing about it, these ministers would not have submitted such memorials. Both the imperial court and the people hoped that Xian Wang would inherit the throne in the future. Tianqi Emperor had always favored this younger brother, so it's not surprising that he received special treatment in the palace school, only doing it more discreetly, just skirting the edge of ancestral laws.
