Introduction to the Ming Dynasty King Lu Exhibition: The "Ming Dynasty King Lu Exhibition" displays cultural relics unearthed from the tomb of Zhu Tan, the first king of Lu in the Ming Dynasty. In order to consolidate his rule, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, assigned his 23 princes to various places as vassal kings. Zhu Tan, his tenth son, was named King of Lu. Zhu Tanming was born in the third year of Hongwu (1370), and was granted vassalage in Yanzhou at the age of fifteen. From then on, Yanzhou was promoted to the prefecture, with jurisdiction over four prefectures and 23 counties. Zhu Tan was good at poetry, calligraphy and etiquette since childhood, was courteous to virtuous people, and was erudite and knowledgeable. He was very fond of Zhu Yuanzhang. At the age of 19, he took an elixir and injured his eyes and died. He was given the posthumous name "Huang". A large number of precious cultural relics unearthed from 1970 to 1971, such as crowns and ornaments, furniture and clothing, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, chess, calligraphy and paintings, painted wooden figurines, etc., are not only a true microcosm of the life of King Zhutan of Lu, but also reflect the Ming Dynasty. The superb level of craftsmanship and filling of gaps in history are of very important material value for studying the politics, economy, and culture of early Ming society.
