==History==
===Background===
===Zhu Ci (朱泚)===
Prior to rebelling, Zhu Ci was the jiedushi of Tangball's Lulong Circuit (Based in Beijingball). Zhu was the first jiedushi of Lulong Circuit since the end of the An-Shi rebellion to send manpower to Tangball, protecting the empire against Tibetan invasions. Zhu was greatly rewarded for his show of obeisanceSima Guang, et al. Zizhi Tongjian, Tang Annals 41: "辛丑，宴泚及将士于延英殿，犒赏之盛，近时未有。" and later became a trusted official of Tangball's Emperor Daizong.
Later, while stationed at Fengxiangball, Shaanxiball, Zhu was implicated in a plot began by his brother (Zhu Tao (朱滔)). Zhu Ci was cleared of involvement, but confined to Chang'anball from then on.Liu Xu, et al. Old Book of Tang • Biography of Zhu Ci.
===Jingyuan Mutiny (涇原兵變)===
In 783, troops from Jingyuan Circuit, Gansuball, were recalled to Chang'anball. These 5000 soldiers subsequently mutinied upon receiving meager rewards, attacked Chang'anball, and forced Tangball's Emperor Dezong to flee to Fengtianball. The troops named the semi-retired Zhu Ci as their leader.Liu Xu, et al. Old Book of Tang • Biography of Zhu Ci.
Initially, Zhu Ci declared the Jingyuan soldiers pacified, and requested officials who fled Chang'anball to return to the capital.Sima Guang, et al. Zizhi Tongjian, vol. 228. Despite this order, Zhu was reluctant to recall Emperor Dezong, and instead conspired to enthrone himself.
===Establishment===
On November 7, 783, Zhu Ci claimed emperorship and established Zhu Qinball in Chang'anball."【中晚唐风云53】没想到唐中期竟然还有一个秦国！15分钟了解朱泚称帝（内置简体字幕，CC繁体字幕）" YouTube, uploaded by 杨利辉, 11 Nov. 2022, https://youtu.be/6OZu01oqXTA Immediately after its establishment, Zhu Qinball laid siege Fengtianball to capture Tangball's emperor, but was forced to lift its siege after reinforcements arrived from Tangball general Li Huaiguang (李懷光). After this failure, Zhu Qinball was renamed to Hanball.Zhu Shaohou, Qi Tao, Wang Yuji. "Ancient Chinese History (Volume 1)." vol. 1, 5th ed., Fujian People's Publishing House, 2010, pp. 583–585
===Abolishment===
In 784, Zhu Qinball convinced Li Huaiguang to rebel against Tangball,Liu Xu, et al. Old Book of Tang • Biography of Zhu Ci. which prolonged the collapse of Zhu Qinball for a few months. Notwithstanding discord among Tangball's ranks, Zhu Ci abandoned Chang'anball in June of 784 and fled towards Tibetball."Zhu Ci."
