Zhu Pu
Zhu Pu (朱朴) was an official of the Chinese dynasty Tang Dynasty, serving briefly from 896 to 897 as a chancellor during the reign of Emperor Zhaozong. Emperor Zhaozong made him chancellor after he made assurances that he would be able to make the imperial administration, then suppressed by the power of the warlords, revived and powerful again, but after he was unable to deliver on the promise, he was removed and exiled at the instigation of the warlord Han Jian; he died in exile.
== Background and early career ==
Little is known about Zhu Pu's background, as his family was not included in the table of the chancellors' family trees in the ''New Book of Tang''.〔''New Book of Tang'', (vol. 74 ).〕 It is also not known when he was born, but it is known that he was from Xiangyang and that he had, at some point, passed the imperial examinations, but not in the prestigious ''Jinshi'' (進士) class, but in the "Three Histories" class — i.e., for the ''Records of the Grand Historian'', the ''Book of Han'', and the ''Book of Later Han''. After passing the imperial examinations, Zhu was initially made the magistrate of Jingmen County (荊門, in modern Jingmen, Hubei), then the archival officer at Jingzhao Municipality (京兆, i.e., the region of the imperial capital Chang'an), then an archiver at the imperial archives (著作郎, ''Zhuzuo Lang''). Early in Emperor Zhaozong's ''Qianning'' era (894-898), the deputy secretary of commerce Li Yuanshi (李元實) made a proposal to deduct two months of pay from each imperial official to pay for military campaigns; Zhu submitted a petition against it, and Li Yuanshi's proposal was not accepted by Emperor Zhaozong.〔''New Book of Tang'', vol. 183.〕
Thereafter, Zhu was promoted to be a professor at the imperial university (國子監, ''Guozi Jian''), teaching about the version of the ''Classic of Poetry'' annotated by the Han Dynasty scholar Mao Heng (毛亨). At that time, with virtually the entire Tang realm engulfed in warfare, Zhu submitted a petition that the imperial capital be moved from Chang'an to the region of Xiang (襄州, in modern Xiangyang, Hubei) (where Zhu was from) and Deng (鄧州, in modern Nanyang, Henan) Prefectures; the petition was not acted upon.〔
It was said that Zhu was an excellent speaker, but was not talented otherwise.〔 In 896, though, the imperial official He Ying (何迎) submitted a recommendation to Emperor Zhaozong, claiming that Zhu was as talented as the great Jin Dynasty prime minister Xie An. The Taoist monk Xu Yanshi (許巖士), a close associate of Emperor Zhaozong's due to his medical abilities,〔''Zizhi Tongjian'', vol. 261.〕 also recommended Zhu, claiming that he had economic talent. Emperor Zhaozong met with Zhu for several days straight and was impressed by Zhu's speaking ability. He stated, "Although I am not Emperor Taizong (ancestor of Emperor Zhaozong's considered to be a heroic emperor at the start of Tang) ), having you is like having Wei Zheng (great chancellor of Emperor Taizong's time) )." He gave both Zhu and He awards of gold and silk.〔''Zizhi Tongjian'', vol. 260.〕
