Chongzhen hanged himself on the coal mountain, what is the secret behind it?

No one forced him, he chose to commit suicide himself. The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies.

It's his own times, if he doesn't want to die, of course, no one will force him to die, but as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, in the end, his family is ruined, and there is nothing left, is there any hope to live? I just went to Lijingshan Park two days ago, and I saw the crooked neck tree, although it is no longer the original one, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, because it is the decline of the Ming Dynasty is also the result of the times.

The conditions of our Ming Dynasty are much stronger than at that time, the place is larger than it, and the products are richer than it, the key is that when the ancestors moved the capital to Beijing, they set Nanjing as the accompanying capital, and there was a complete administrative system. Li Mingrui urged that as long as you make up your mind to go south, Dongshan may be able to rise again, and Daming Zhongxing is hopeful. The situation in Hebei, Shandong, and Jiangsu along the way is not bad at present, and safety is not an issue.

In short, to defend Beijing is to wait for death, and it is better to leave as soon as possible. Li Mingrui said it well-founded, Chongzhen listened attentively, and the two talked deeply for a day and night.

Li Zicheng's army is getting closer and closer. Chongzhen hinted that Li Mingrui should write a report to make the issue of southward migration public, trying to force **. **Chief Minister Chen Yan opposed the move to the south and deliberately poked the news out, making it boiling, rumors spread, and people's hearts were in turmoil.

He was not enough, and instructed a small cadre to hand over materials to the authorities, attacking the southward migration as having ulterior motives and "heresy," and demanded that Li Mingrui be dealt with seriously.

First chance. In the first month of the first month of the Jiashen year, Li Zicheng's army advanced into Shanxi, and it was possible to attack Beijing in two months, and the situation changed rapidly. On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Chongzhen called Li Mingrui from the prince's office to have a small meeting to study the emergency plan.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't hang himself, but who forced him to the coal mountain? Li Mingrui's opinion is to move south, and he believes that as long as the strategic shift to the south is carried out, he can be relieved. In that year, Zhao Gou, Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, resolutely crossed south and established a prosperous and prosperous Southern Song Dynasty in Hangzhou, and the Zhao family continued for more than 150 years.

However, according to the system of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's major decisions need to be supported by the first department; And Chongzhen is also worried that if he comes forward and proposes to give up the capital and ancestral tombs, he will be scolded behind him. It is best for the first ministers to mention it at the meeting, and they pretend not to agree, and the ministers have repeatedly persuaded them to move, so that the decision-making process is the most perfect. At the meeting, Emperor Chongzhen said with tears in his eyes

The situation is like this, I want to go to the front line in person and die on the battlefield, you don't pull me. "The ministers of the ministries fought to share the worries of the leaders and go on the expedition on behalf of the emperor, but no one mentioned moving south.

In fact, he himself forced himself to the coal mountain, although he was a very good emperor, but he was always indecisive when making decisions, so it led to hanging.

Of course, it was this war-torn battle for imperial power, because he was really a failed emperor, so he could only kill himself in the end.

It was himself, talentless, virtuous, and self-serving, which caused the whole of Beijing to give up on him, and even his father-in-law did not save him.

Emperor Chongzhen is also a monarch who wants to make a difference from a historical point of view. The foundation of Nai He has rotted and is powerless to return to the sky. In addition to being disheartened, he would rather die than steal his life. There are two kinds of kings, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, and Chongzhen belongs to the latter.

Coal Mountain (also known as Wanshou Mountain, now Jingshan, Beijing).

The last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youzhen, hanged himself in the coal mountain.

Zhu Youzhen (February 6, 1611 – April 25, 1644) was the sixteenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty. The fifth son of Zhu Changluo of Mingguangzong, the half-brother of Zhu Youxiao of Mingxizong, and his mother is the lady Liu. In 1622 (the second year of the Apocalypse), he was canonized as King Xin.

He reigned from 1627 to 1644, with the year name Chongzhen, and was called Emperor Chongzhen in later generations.

After Zhu Youzhen succeeded to the throne, he vigorously eradicated the eunuch party, was diligent in political affairs, lived a frugal life, and had six edicts against himself, and was a young and promising emperor. During his reign, a peasant uprising broke out, and the Jin regime was eyeing the outside of the Guan, and was already in a situation of internal and external troubles. In 1644, when Li Zicheng's army broke through Beijing, he hanged himself in Coal Mountain at the age of 34 and reigned for 17 years.

Coal Mountain is now Jingshan Park in Beijing.

Jingshan Park is located on the central axis of Beijing, covering an area of hectares, and was originally the royal garden of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. The scenery is towering and steep, the trees are lush, and the scenery is magnificent, which is the best place to climb high and overlook the whole city scenery in Beijing. In the Yuan Dynasty more than 600 years ago, the place was a small hill, named"Aoyama"。

It is rumored that when the Forbidden City was built in the Ming Dynasty, coal was piled up here, so there is"Coal Mountain"Commonly known as.

It is now Jingshan.

1.Jingshan Park is located in Jingshan Front Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, on the central axis of Beijing in the Ming and Qing dynasties, facing Beihai in the west, and facing the Shenwu Gate of the Forbidden City across the street in the south, which is the imperial garden of the Ming and Qing dynasties. The mountain in the center of the park is made of mounds of earth and was once the commanding height of the whole city.

2.Jingshan Park was established in 1928, with a total area of 23 hectares, of which the flower lawn covers an area of 1,100 square meters. The park is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction, and there are scenic spots such as Qiwang Tower, Wufang Pavilion, Shouhuang Palace, Yongsi Palace, and Peony Garden in the park.

On March 19 of the 17th year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (1644), Li Zicheng broke through the city of Beijing, and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in Jingshan. , Li Zicheng's army invaded Beijing, and Ming Sizong Zhu Youzhen died on an old locust tree at the eastern foot of Banzai Mountain. After the Qing army entered the customs, in order to win the hearts of the people, this locust tree was called "sin locust", locked with iron chains, and stipulated that the members of the Qing royal family should dismount and walk to clear the Qing when passing by here.

Anyone who has been to Jingshan Park in Beijing knows that Chongzhen hanged himself from a crooked-necked locust tree halfway up the mountain.

Emperor Chongzhen did nothing after he ascended the throne, there was no strong means when governing the country, and his military strength would not be controlled in his own hands, so he was forced to be helpless, so he chose to hang himself.

The fantasy he held in his heart made him stick to the city of Beijing when he could leave; After the city was completely destroyed, he had no choice but to choose a more dignified death by hanging himself in order not to die under the enemy's sword.

Because the general trend had gone at that time, he knew that he could not make a comeback, so he committed suicide.
