The Elimination of Kongyangwanggi in Yeosajegang and it’s political significance

The Yeosajegang(麗史提綱) written by Yu Kei(兪棨) was published under the 1667 of the King Hyun－Jong's accession and it revised under the 25th year of the King Young－Jo's government. Then King Young－Jo gave order that delete the contents of Kongyangwanggi(恭讓王紀). As some implications of Kongyangwanggi in Yeosajegang had estimated such a high loyalty about the Koryo Dynasty that it could reflect greatly. The contents of the last period of the Koryo Dynasty on Kongyangwanggi in Yeosajegang were developed as loyalism according to moral views. Especially, the contents of loyalty of the officers adhered to his principles was strengthened relatively. The records of meritorious public officers served establishing the Chosun dynasty were censured by objecting the load. And there was a lot of supplement about loyal officers in the last place of Kongyangwanggi. Whether Song Si－yul(宋時烈) intended the way of such a writing or made some mistakes, Song Si－yul regarded the coup d'etatt of military officers under the King Eui－Jong(毅宗) that Zushi(朱熹) misunderstanded as the usurpation that some influential vassals seized the government in the late period of the Koryo Dynasty. At the result, thiswriting made the descendant of Chosun dy nasty unease, so I think that King Young－Jo commanded to delete Kongyangwanggi and to revise some parts of Yeosajegang. By the way, the term of before and after the King Chug－Jo's accession was political upheaval time. The surroundings to the King and Chungeui(淸議) of Noron(老論) supported from the Sanlim(山林) of Hose(湖西) joined together at that time. Under those background, Lee Eung－won(李應元) sent a petition into the loyal court to object Song Si－yul's Byellok(別錄) critically. This became to imply necessary the important politicalimplication especially under the complicated political situations, the early of Chung－Jo's accession. Lee Eung－won raised to issue about the principles of righteousness over the Sadoseija(思悼世子)'s death and Song Si－yul's principles of righteousness and moral conscience which was a kind of defect both the influential Chungeui of Noron in office and the other political line, Namdang(南黨). Lee Eung－won's appeal was agreed on causes of the political line of Hong Bong－han(洪鳳漢)'s followers and the other line of Soron(少論). The King Chung－Jo's intention which prevented from discussing over the Sadoseija's death were matched with the political intention of the line Chungeui of Noron which wanted to eliminate Hong Bong－han's followers. I think that the developed courses over the deletion of Kongyangwanggi were related with the complicated gathering and breaking up of political and ideological parties, although it issued from the objection of an individual's political appeals. This caused great of political problems in relation with contemporary policy. Judging from the foregoing, the Yeosajegang was significant not only the side on the contents of a book but also the side on the political history.Since the first published version was prohibited circulating and the revised version was circulated more broadly, Yu's Kongyangwanggi in Yeosajegang was not allow to reference publicly. But Donggamgangmok(東鑑綱目) edited by Song Beong－sun(宋秉璿) was still referenced according to the first version of Kongyangwanggi. This shows that the virtue of loyalty appeared of Kongyangwanggi was still worthy of the attractive and efficacious virtue for intellectuals of Wijengcheksa(衛正斥邪學派).
