In ancient Chinese society,the successor of ruler was directly related to the safety of the court and the survival of the regime,and was the foundation of the stability and continuity of the country.Therefore,the successor was called "the foundation of the country".Successive dynasties attach great importance to the issue of heirs.The heir of the emperor is the prince,also known as the "country-based".Since the Han Dynasty,the prince system was established.The principle of establishing the prince is to inherit the eldest son from the eldest son,"to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to have the right to be the eldest son born to the empress,if the empress has no son,the eldest son In the Ming Dynasty,the ruling class attached great importance to "national origin" because of the "battle of Jing Nan" in the early Ming Dynasty,which triggered wars during the transition of the emperor's throne,and brought serious disasters to the rule of the Ming Dynasty.The ruling class changed blood greatly.Therefore,the later rulers were not allowed to cause the instability of the emperor's throne again.However,during the reign of Emperor Zhu Yijun,the empress had no children.There were emperor Zhu Changluo and empress Zheng Guifei,the eldest son of the Royal queen's family.The emperor was unwilling to obey the ancestral system and set up the eldest son as the prince,but preferred to set up the third son.This makes the upright ministers who maintain feudal etiquette feel uneasy.They neglect the above-mentioned means and ask the Emperor's eldest son to be the prince.The Emperor ignored these ministers.There are also some ministers who support Princess Zheng and the Emperor's three sons.At that time,the rise of the dynasty's apoplexy cloud led to the struggle between the two groups of ministers with the "country-based" as the fuse.After a long period of neglect of the upright ministers,they were punished.Shenzong was unwilling to establish the first son of the emperor as the prince.Shenzong made excuses to delay.Finally,Shenzong was forced to establish the first son of the emperor as the prince.After the identity of Prince Zhu Changluo had been determined,the struggle had not stopped,and then there were three major suspicions,namely,attack,Hongwan and palace removal,which was the continuation of the "national-based dispute".In the three cases,the upright minister who supported the prince and the minister who supported the princess Zheng were in a position of superiority during this period.In the later period of Shenzong,his long-term neglect of government led to low administrative efficiency and political corruption.The Donglin Party members who were far away from the DPRK began to lecture and gather,criticize DPRK government,criticize the decadent officials in the DPRK,and the Donglin Party struggle began.Later,when Xi Zong and Zhu Yu were in school,Wei Zhongxian,the leader of the Rong Party,took control of the dynasty for a long time with the favor of the emperor,and persecuted the Donglin Party members crazily.Those who opposed them and those who opposed Zheng Guifei in the three cases were the targets of their attack.The party struggle between the two Koreas had become white-hot.After his death,Wei Zhongxian and his remaining party were liquidated.However,the decades-long struggle between Shenzong and Xizong brought great harm to the rule of the Ming Dynasty and accelerated the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
