These three cases set off a storm in the city, causing a series of chain reactions. The Prince case, in particular, accelerated the demise of the Hong Guang regime. According to the notes in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Zhu Yousong was very fatuous and decadent, and only knew how to eat, drink and be merry. He indulges in debauchery all day and is indifferent to state affairs. 1645 (the first year of Hong Guang, the second year of Shunzhi) On New Year's Eve, the Qing army went south. In front of the ministers, he lamented that "the harem was deserted, but there was no new voice in Du Nan in the new year" and ordered a wide selection of beautiful women. Because of his indulgence, he ordered someone to catch toad for him and prepare an aphrodisiac. People in Nanjing call him "the son of a toad". Shi Kefa wrote to Ma Shiying before he acceded to the throne, explaining that "the axe king can't stand seven kinds" ── greed, lewdness, drunkenness, unfilial, abusive, ignorant and bossy. Signed by Shi Kefa, Zhang, Tu, etc. 17 and sent.
Zhu Yousong is surrounded by courtiers and eunuchs who flatter him, such as Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng. He didn't even ask about the attack of the Qing army. Despite Shi Kefa's loyalty, the revival of the Ming Dynasty is hard to see.
Zhu Yousong has always been known as "immoral", and later people called him the most fatuous emperor of the decadent dynasty, who only knew pleasure, did not care about politics, indulged in debauchery and debauchery. The world commented that it was his lack of enterprising spirit that shattered the hope of the Nanming dynasty to govern the river. However, it is difficult to verify the rumor through careful study of historical records, and the main reason is that Lin Dong-party member's prejudice against the norm system. However, his original experience shows the image of a politician who is not fatuous but has personality. For example, Li Qing's Notes on Sanyuan, Nan Du Lu, Shen Jia Diary, etc., falsely argued the lewdness and indulgence of the Hong Guang Dynasty, and pointed out that Emperor Hong Guang was a politician with great idea of governing the country, magnanimous tolerance, diligent in political affairs and eager to make a difference. In addition, Zhu Yousong rehabilitated the courtiers who died in Ming Huidi and Jingnan Rebellion, and his political gains and losses are still controversial. Lin Shi said to "Three Mysteries in the South": "When Luoyang was trapped, the axe king often encountered thieves, and the palace fled as soon as possible. The prince was led across the river by the guards, but he was ignorant. In April, Shen Jia, Chen Qianfu, the governor of Zhongzhou, was sent to Ma Shiying, the governor of Phoenix, and was established as Emperor Hong Guang with the four towns. After Deng Ji, the Queen Mother also arrived from Hebei. When the emperor didn't go out to meet him, the ministers sent Feng Yu to his royal highness in the inner hall. After the emperor tucked him in, he went to the corner of the hall. When the secret language moved, the ministers straightened up and waited, and the secret language was heard. Bowing down and wailing for a long time, everyone suspected. Qiao Dali, Mr. Shengren, is a witness in the class. He once talked a lot. Or cloud: The emperor is not a real prince. Fu Fan dares to admit that he has a look. Don't vent your words, share your wealth. Another cloud: after entering the palace, lie with the emperor. The truth of the matter is unknown. When the emperor came, he was not welcomed. After a while, he began to cry. When I left, I started a different journey. I went to Wuhu and Guo Jing. The Queen Mother went to Zhejiang with Ma Shiying, which was terrible. A mystery. "
Jin Bao: "Yu Wen Hongguang is a fake building. Fudi has been making trouble. Her princess has a brother who eloped with an in-servant, pretending to be a blessed land. Being on the pole, the chamberlain was afraid of joy and dared not speak. When the princess arrived, the fake government was afraid of exposure and died. Ma Shiying wanted to build a blessed mansion and turn over the game of Lindong, so he handed over the southeast half to clear his ears. "
Yang: "It's also false. It comes from the mouth of Fu She." "Gai Ruan Dacheng wants to kill and reunite the gentlemen. He regrets the latter gentleman and hates Yu Dacheng. Khan, who made words, was contemptuous and regained his enthusiasm, saying,' This is an ignorant imperial clan.' If you are seriously ill. "
