The emperors in history are in the ninth five-year-old and nine-in-one, holding the life and killing in their hands and seizing power, and have made great achievements, which are remembered by future generations, and some emperors are arrogant and extravagant and are ridiculed by future generations. The emperor we are going to talk about today was deposed by his stepmother and grandmother. This Emperor Wunang was the twelfth emperor of the Song Dynasty, Guangzong Zhao. After five years as emperor, he left the throne in a vacuum, and six years after abdicating, Song Guangzong fell ill and died.
Zhao Huan was the third son of Emperor Xiaozong, and his biological mother was Emperor Xiaozong's wife Guo Shi (郭氏), who was made Prince Gong before he was made crown prince. After the death of Zhao Yu (赵愭), the crown prince of Zhuangwen, Emperor Xiaozong was too generous with his second son Zhao Kai (赵恺), and Yue Ci made his third son Zhao Kai the crown prince. After Zhao Huan had been crown prince for 18 years, he accepted the zen position of Emperor Xiaozong in the sixteenth year of Chunxi (1189) as Song Guangzong. Emperor Guangzong sat on the throne for only 5 years before he was ousted by his stepmother and grandmother, thanks entirely to his wife, Li Fengniang.
It is said that Emperor Xiaozong of Song thought that Zhao Huan's heroic and martial talents were very similar to his own, so he made Zhao Huan the crown prince. At the beginning of his succession, Zhao Huan was also ambitious and wanted to achieve a great cause, but he was also famous for being afraid of his wife, and even the power of the government fell into the hands of the empress, but the empress was also a unreasonable woman. The demise of the Southern Dynasty was not without reason.
The empress's name was Li Fengniang, and it is said that when Li Fengniang was born, a group of black phoenixes flew in front of the military camp, and when a Taoist priest was invited to show the three sisters of the Li family, he said that Li Fengniang "became a mother in the world", and there was a marriage between Zhao Wei and Li Fengniang. Li Fengniang was jealous and took very strict care of Guangzong, allowing him to be ambiguous and merciful to other women. "Song Shi Vol. 243 Liechuan II" Emperor tasted the raccoon hands in the palace, saw the white hands of the palace people, and was pleased. He day, after sending people to send food to the emperor, Qi Zhi, then the palace people also have two hands. And Huang Fei had a favor, because the emperor was close to the suburbs, su zhai palace, and then killed him, in order to violently smell. It is a great work of rain and rain, and the yellow altar candles are extinguished, and they cannot be a gift. The imperial disease is a drama that increases the drama, does not regard the dynasty, and the political affairs are more decided than the later.
Li Fengniang liked to stir up dissension, which made the two emperors of Song Gaozong and Song Xiaozong very dissatisfied. Song Gaozong began to regret that he had promoted the marriage between Zhao Wei and Li Fengniang, and Song Xiaozong also reprimanded Li Fengniang many times, but Li Fengniang not only did not change herself in the slightest, but even hated Xiaozong and Gaozong.
Later, Li Fengniang also became more and more bold, and her strong desire for power was gradually revealed, and it was said that even her family's doormen could become officials, and there were more guards in the family temple than in the royal temple, which was a bit sima Zhao's heart.
In addition to these, Li Fengniang also provoked zhao huan and his father Xiaozong's relationship. When Emperor Xiaozong died, he did not even have the opportunity to see the last side of his son, and the cowardly Song Gaozong did not dare to see his father for the last time without Li Fengniang's permission. On the day of Emperor Xiaozong's funeral, the two of them also ignored it.
Guangzong and Li Fengniang's behavior was criticized. After enlisting the support of Emperor Gaozong of Song's empress Dowager Wu, the grandmother of Song Guangzong, a coup d'état without bloodshed was launched. They installed Zhao Kuo, the son of Emperor Guangzong of Song, as emperor, and honored Emperor Guangzong of Song and Li Fengniang as emperor and empress dowager. That is to say, Song Guangzong was emptied after a few years of being emperor, and it can be said that he was the most nested emperor.
