Both questions regards the Manchu conquest of China
1. The Kingdom of Tungning was founded by the Zheng family under Koxinga. Did they intend to restore the Ming or start a new dynasty? Koxinga supported the Yongli Emperor until he was captured and killed in 1662. Was there an attempt to place a figure head Ming emperor from the remaining imperial princes by the Zheng regime until Zheng Jing “abandoned any pretense of restoring the Ming dynasty by the time he invaded Fujian in 1676” as it states in his article?
2. During the end of the Kingdom of Tungning, 17 Ming dynasty princes were sent back to the mainland from Taiwan. Zhu Shugui and Zhu Honghuan are the only princes whose name I could find. What were the names of the other princes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.209.14.47 ( talk) 09:37, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
So I am not an expert on the subject, but I think Koxinga's goals in the time period started out as helping the vestiges of the Ming, supporting refugees from the mainland, and generally being a bastion of Ming culture. That said, eventually with the Ming overthrow, Koxinga became much more independent and less connected with restoring the Ming dynasty, an impossible task as a governor of a small island, and focused more on piracy and developing a kingdom and dynasty on Taiwan still connected with Ming culture but less connected with the Ming empire.

I have a recipe for "Eggs and Luxette". It is a savoury, to be served at the end of a meal.
2 or 3 hard-boiled eggs
1 1/2 oz butter
1 tablespoonful luxette
seasoning
Divide the hard-boiled eggs in half, remove the yolks and mix smoothly with butter and luxette, rub through a sieve, then pipe into the egg, stand each cup on a slice of cooked beetroot or tomato, garnish with cress and serve.
What is luxette? Thank you, DuncanHill ( talk) 21:01, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
