Zhū Zhè 朱淛 (1486–1552), zì Bìdōng 必東, hào Sǔnān 損庵, of Pútián 莆田 (Fújiàn). Took the jìnshì in Jiājìng 2 (1523) and was appointed HúGuǎng dào Jiānchá yùshǐ. He memorialized in contestation of the empress-dowager birthday-protocol asymmetry between Xīngguó 興國 (Jiājìng’s birth-mother) and Císhòu 慈壽 (the Hóngzhì empress) — a continuation of the Dàlǐyì into ritual practice. For this memorial he was tíngzhàng and dismissed home, where he spent 30+ years writing on regional jīngshì matters (Nányáng waterworks; mountain-bandits and piracy). With Mǎ Mínghéng 馬明衡, he is paired by the Sìkù tíyào as one of the few who maintained loyalty to the former-Hóng-zhì dispensation after the Dàlǐyì prosecutions. His Tiānmǎ shānfáng yígǎo KR4e0182 preserves the full text of the birthday-protocol memorial, much abridged in the Míngshǐ. CBDB 34696 gives 1486–1555 but Míngshǐ j. 207 and the catalog meta give 1486–1552, followed here.
