明代の靖江王朱佐敬の『遊独秀岩記』

原型の石刻は独秀峰の太平岩にあり、高さ1.38メートル、幅0.87メートルです。その内容は明代の第三任の靖江王朱佐敬が正統九年（1444年）に書いた『遊独秀岩記』（独秀岩の旅行記）です。朱佐敬は在位したのが58年間（明代永楽九年から成化五年まで、1411－1469年）で、十四の靖江王の中で在位する時間が最も長いです。

明代の伝襲する時間が最も長い藩王系：靖江王

朱元璋は洪武三年（1370年）に、制定して完備する「封藩制度」によって、全国の各地を王にする人が自分の息子だけではなく、兄弟の孫の朱守謙です。朱守謙の祖父朱興隆は長兄朱元璋のために、若い時に災害に死なれ、後に朱元璋が南昌王をあたえ、靖江王の開祖を祀りました。朱守謙の父朱文正は陳友谅の六十万軍代が進撃することを抵抗した「洪都防衛戦」の中に、自分の軍事と指揮才能を十分に発揮し、全軍の「大都督」を務め、後に褒め与えることに不満するために、朱元璋を裏切ることを計画したために安徽の桐城に軟禁されました。朱元璋は兄弟の孫の朱守謙を桂林に親王にし、第一任の靖江王になり、また軍政権利、官属規制、護衛兵卒などに親王と同じ待遇を享受し『明史志』の第三十載、「靖江王則以亲王封，故視秦、晋儀」（靖江王は親王と同じで、秦、晋儀と見られました）、辺境をきちんと守ることを希望したが「慎固辺境，翼卫皇室」（辺境を慎重に守り、皇室を護衛します）、彼が不良少年と混在するのが好き、広西の百姓の不満を引き付けるために、安徽鳳陽に召喚されました。朱元璋は朱守謙の本妻の生んだ子の朱讃儀を靖江王の世子にし、他の十三名の藩王を訪問することを命じられ、明代の遠楽元年（1403年）に桂林に第二の靖江王になりました。　　　　　

靖江王は共に十四代を伝襲し、明代の唯一の親王となる旁支宗室で、明代洪武三年（1370年）に桂林が藩となり、遠歴四年（清代順治七年、1650年）まで結束し、共に280年で、明代の伝襲した時間が最も長い藩王系となります。

A Tour of the Unique Beauty Cave by Zhu Zuojing, the Jingjiang Prince in
the Ming Dynasty

The stone carving of A Tour of the Unique Beauty Cave by Zhu Zuojing, the
Jingjiang Prince in the Ming Dynasty, is located in the Taiping Cave of the Unique
Beauty Peak, standing 1.38 meters in height by 0.87 meter wide. Its inscription --A
Tour of the Unique Beauty Cave-- was inscribed and engraved by Zhu Zuojing, the
third-term Jingjiang Prince, in the 9th year of the Zhengtong Period in the Ming
Dynasty (1444 C.E.) after he went sightseeing in the Unique Beauty Cave of the
Unique Beauty Hill. Zhu Zuojing occupied the title for 58 years (from the 9th year
of the Yongle Period to the 5th year of the Chenghua Period, 1411-1469 C.E.), the
longest period of time among the 14 Jingjiang Princes.




The Longest Vassal Prince Clan: Jingjiang Prince

In the 3rd year of Hongwu in the Yuan Dynasty (1370 C.E.), Zhu Yuanzhang
conferred the titles of vassal princes upon his sons including Zhu Shouqian, his
grandnephew, to different parts of the country based on the established system
of conferring vassal princes. Zhu Shouqian’s grandfather, Zhu Xinglong, who
was Zhu Yuanzhang’s eldest brother, after dying from famine, was conferred
Nanchang Prince posthumously, and esteemed as the first ancestor of Jingjiang
Prince by the imperial edict. Zhu Shouqian’s father, Zhu Wenzheng, had
fully demonstrated his military and commanding talent in the “War to Defend
Hongdu” as Commander-in-Chief in resisting the attack of the 600,000 soldiers
led by Chen Youliang. Afterwards, since he was unsatisfied with the reward, he
attempted to betray Zhu Yuanzhang, which led to his being placed under house
arrest in Tongcheng City of An’hui Province. Then Zhu Yuanzhang conferred
the title of Prince upon his grandnephew, Zhu Shouqian, and gave him the
land of Guilin. Thus he became the first Jingjiang Prince, enjoying the same
treatment as Prince in such aspects as the military and political power, the
official position, the escorts and soldiers in armor at his disposal, the imperial
scroll and seal, and the guards of honor. (In Volume 54 of the History of the Ming
Dynasty, it is recorded that, “Jingjiang Prince was conferred the same title of
Prince as Qing Prince and Jin Prince), in the hope that he could be committed
to guarding the frontier (“committed to consolidate the frontier and protect
the imperial government.”) However, he was so “domineering that complaints
rose all around from the local people”, so he was removed from power and
sent by imperial edict back to his hometown—Fengyang, Anhui Province. Then
Zhu Yuanzhang conferred Jingjiang Prince’s Legitimate Son upon Zhu Zanyi
and ordered him to visit and learn from the other 13 Vassal Princes. He didn’
t accede to the second-term Jingjiang Prince until the first year of the Yongle
Period in the Ming Dynasty (1403 C.E.).
The title of Jingjiang Prince had been handed down by heredity among 14
Princes, whose clan was the only collateral imperial clan that was conferred
Prince during the Ming Dynasty. From the 3rd year of Hongwu Period in the
Ming Dynasty (1370 C.E.) to the 4th year of the Yongli Period (i.e. the 7th year
of the Shunzhi Period in the Qing Dynasty, 1650 C.E.), the imperial clan lasted
280 years, being the longest-lasting hereditary Vassal Prince Clan during the
Ming Dynasty.
