安南陈氏后陈天平身份考述

On Chen Tianping’s Identity as Descendant of Annan Chen’s Clan

明朝与安南于永乐年间的战争是中越关系史上的重要事件,陈天平为胡氏劫杀则一直被视为此事件的导火索,而陈天平作为陈氏后人的身份则是其中重要一环。文章从安南陈氏世系、裴伯耆的活动及陈天平在老挝的活动等方面对陈天平的身份进行考释,认为陈天平并非陈氏后人,且应为陈氏家奴阮康。而明太宗之所以承认陈平天为安南陈氏后裔,有其维护政权合法性、祖训等方面出发的考虑,也基于军事干预安南的目的。但胡氏先承认其身份,又将其截杀,则是出于缓师备战、稳定统治等目的。

The war between Ming Dynasty and Annam in Yongle was an important event in the history of Sino-Vietnam relations.Chen Tianping was regarded as the fuse of Hu’s robbery and murder,and Chen Tianping’s identity as a descendant of Chen’s was an important part of it.In this paper,Chen Tianping’s identity is examined from the aspects of Annam Chen’s lineage,Pei Boqi’s activities and Chen Tianping’s activities in Laos.It is believed that Chen Tianping is not a descendant of Chen’s family,and should be Ruan Kang,Chen’s family slave.The reason why Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty recognized Chen Pingtian as the descendant of Chen’s family in Annam was based on the consideration of maintaining the legitimacy of regime and ancestral training,and the purpose of military intervention in Annam.However,Hu’s first recognition of his identity and killing him was for the purpose of delaying division and preparing for war and stabilizing rule.
