Zhu Yunwen was the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his father Zhu Biao was the eldest son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He was made a prince in his early years and unfortunately died young in middle age. According to the feudal etiquette tradition, Zhu Yuanzhang named Zhu Yunwen the great-grandson of the emperor. Zhu Yuanzhang was 2 1 year old when he died. After he succeeded to the throne, he changed "Hongwu" to "Wen Jian", which was called "Emperor Jianwen" in history. However, after only four years in office, his fourth uncle Judy was overthrown by force, and the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian after he stepped down became an eternal mystery. Mainly includes:

Self-immolation theory. According to the records of Yongle period and Ming History Draft, after Wen Jian acceded to the throne, with the help of Qi Taihe, the minister of war, and Huang Zicheng, the great minister, he decided to cut the vassal. Judy, the prince of Yan, immediately led his troops south, and launched the "Battle of Jingnan" under the banner of Jun Qing. In less than four years, the prince crossed the Yangtze River and arrived at the gates of Nanjing. His peace was not allowed, so he had to stick to it, but his coach, Li Jinglong, opened the Jinchuan Gate to welcome the Prince's army into the city, and the Manchu officers and men surrendered in succession. Seeing the ebb of the tide, Emperor Wen Jian had to order the palace to burn down, and suddenly the fire burst into flames. Wen Jian and his queen Ma Shi jumped into the fire and set themselves on fire. Most of his concubines and entourage died with him. Judy, the prince of Yan, looked for him for three days after she entered the palace. The attendants in the palace said that Emperor Wen Jian set himself on fire and dragged a charred body out of the fire to prove it. When the prince saw the body, he couldn't tell the difference between men and women. It was terrible. After he succeeded to the throne, he had to "bury Wen Jian" with the son of heaven. Both Ming History and Biography of Fang Xiaoru hold this view.

Cut the monk's hair. Lu Anshi, a celebrity in Qing Dynasty, and Cai Dongfan, a close friend, believed that after the Yan army broke the city, Emperor Wen Jian was helpless and wanted to die. At this time, the young warden Wang Yue told him: When your grandfather died, he left you an iron box for me to give to you when you were in trouble. I have kept it in Fengxian Hall in secret. Ministers quickly picked up the box and opened it. There are three official books in it, which are monks' identity cards with the names of three people, including Wen Jian. There are three robes, a razor, ten ingots of platinum, and a suicide note. The book says: "Emperor Wen Jian went out from the gate of hell, and others went out from Shuiguan Yugou. In the evening, they will meet in the optimistic west room of God. " On this basis, three of his men shaved their heads, put on hateful clothes, and only took nine people to the gate of hell. The ghost gate is at the emergency exit, which is a small low gate in the inner city. Only one person was allowed in and out of this waterway, and Emperor Wen Jian bent down and walked out of the gate of hell. After the other eight people went out of the gate of hell, they saw a boat parked on the waterway. A monk stood on the boat and told them to board, and bowed to Emperor Wen Jian and said, Long live. Emperor Wen Jian asked him how he knew I was in trouble. The monk replied, "My name is Wang Sheng, and I am the optimistic abbot of God. I dreamed of your grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang last night. He is a monk. " At this time, it seems that Emperor Wen Jian has cut his hair into a monk and inherited his ancestral business.

In addition, it is recorded in Biography of Yao in Ming Dynasty and Biography of Hu Meng that after Ming Taizu proclaimed himself emperor, he became suspicious of his death by self-immolation. Someone told him that the charred body was right and cut off his hair and fled from home. He arrested Pu QIA, a master of records in Wen Jian, and put him in prison for more than ten years, forcing him to give up the whereabouts of Wen Jian. He also sent Zheng He to the Western Seas to "pursue" and sent Hu Ying to the counties and towns in 16 to search for the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian. Until one night a year before Judy died, he had fallen asleep, but when he heard that Hu Ying was back, he quickly put on his clothes and called him to the bedroom alone. Hu Meng found that after leaving the Forbidden City, Wen Jian cut his hair and became a monk. Instead of being optimistic, he took refuge in the southwest and southeast, but was rescued by monk Pu Qia and has been hiding in Luopu Temple in Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province. Since then, I have been a monk with one heart and no intention of rejuvenating the country. In recent years, Xu Zuosheng also pointed out that in the 21st year of Yongle (1423), Emperor Wen Jian died in Qionglongshan, Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province, at the age of 46, and was buried on the back hillside of Huangjiaan.

It has also been pointed out that it is a historical truth that he died of self-immolation, because at that time, Enemy at the Gates and the Yan army surrounded the Forbidden Palace, and it was too late for him to escape. Moreover, after investigation, there was no ghost gate or imperial ditch to escape from. Emperor Wen Jian also knew that his fourth uncle was an insatiable and ruthless warrior. If he falls into his hands, it will never come to a good end. Might as well be dead. Judy, the prince of Yan, will never let her life go on, otherwise, she will not be an emperor. In order not to leave the notoriety of "killing nephews to seize the throne", Judy deliberately took pains to find the whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian, leaving a historical mystery, which may be Judy's original intention.

To sum up, it is a historical fact that Judy ordered the search for Wen Jian after she acceded to the throne. However, his true intention and the true whereabouts of Emperor Wen Jian remain an unsolved historical mystery. All kinds of dictionaries should be marked; His whereabouts are unknown.
