刘鸿训天启使行与朝鲜海上贡道之重启——兼及《辛酉皇华集》与《朝鲜光海君日记》叙事之比较

Liu Hongxun's Mission to Choson Korea and the Reopen of Choson's Maritime Tribute Road to Ming in 1621:with Narrative Comparison between Xin You Huang Hua Ji and Choson Ghuanghaejun Rigi

1 621年,明使刘鸿训与杨道寅颁熹宗即位诏于朝鲜,在明代后期中朝交往中,具有重要地位。《辛酉皇华集》中的唱和诗文,显示出明与朝鲜宗藩关系的主从地位。此次使行,不但重启从登州登陆的海上贡道。而刘鸿训之贪墨,也给朝鲜接待明使开了新例,留下恶名,引起《光海君日记》的大肆批评,在中国民间亦演绎成一个神话故事,极具反讽意味。《皇华集》乃是宗藩关系下明代中朝间政治外交的体现,《光海君日记》则是朝鲜王朝的官方实录,两书对刘鸿训使行一褒一贬的评价,亦可见明代中朝宗藩关系的多重层面。

Liu Hongxun and Yang Daoyin as the Ming envoys went to Choson Korea to proclaim Ming Emperor Guangzong and Emperor Xizong＇s Throne edicts to the Korean King in 1621, which was important in the Ming-Korean relation history. They could not return from the land route but took a risk to reopen the sea route successfully, which accompanied by Choson envoys. Moreover, the literatures showed that Choson King and his ministers had different attitudes to the Ming envoys Liu and Yang, because of Liu and Yang＇s corruption and bribery, which also showed the multiple aspects of the Ming-Choson vassal relations.
