During the Tang Dynasty, there was an emperor who was particularly clever, although he did not have the vigorous deeds of Li Shimin. But his ability to take Li Jiajiangshan back from the hands of eunuchs was enough to show that his ability was not ordinary. Why did a foolish emperor appear in the history of the Tang Dynasty? This will start with Tang Xuanzong's eunuch "treasure belt".
There was a eunuch named Ma Yuanzhen by Tang Xuanzong's side, who had been with the emperor for a long time, and he was also very able to get the emperor's favor, so Tang Xuanzong gave him a treasure belt and rewarded him. Later, after two emperors, Ma Yuanzhen's power can be said to have monopolized the government. It's just that in ancient times, there was a rule that eunuchs couldn't govern, so Ma Yuanzhen didn't dare to come to the government. Later, after Tang Wuzong died, there was no heir, so Ma Yuanzhen wanted to be the emperor behind the scenes!
So in his sphere of influence, he also chose the emperor for the Tang Dynasty. This has already violated the established rules, so it is very difficult to choose the emperor. But in order to be able to control the rights of a country, he is also very hardworking. In the Tang Dynasty family, Li Yan of Tang Wuzong was the emperor, and Li Chen, who was the eldest of all generations, was the emperor's uncle. This uncle looks like a fool, does not like to talk, but basically does not speak.
After Li Yan's death, Ma Yuanzhen began his conspiracy. Find a good control person to manage the Tang Dynasty, and still listen to your own words, everything will be perfect! However, the world was unpredictable, and he chose this foolish emperor Uncle Li Chen to inherit the throne. The emperor Li Chen, who he chose with all his might, was usually no different from a fool, and he was often bullied by the emperor and did not speak. After helping him to the throne this time, it was like a divine possession!
Being a fool for decades, there is no way to be like that on the first day of being an emperor! To the surprise of the eunuch Ma Yuanzhen, he did not look like a novice emperor. Like a veteran who has been an emperor for more than ten years, he handles things simply and decisively. He also solved the tumors of the imperial court over the years and the Ma-Li partisan disputes! He had the status of emperor, so he began to close the power of the clan relatives, and the ruling of the eunuchs was slowly elevated, and even directly kicked out of the power team!
At this time, the eunuch Ma Yuan was about to vomit blood, and he did not expect that all his planned plans had been foiled. Not only was the emperor not controlled, but he also put himself in it. This great wisdom and foolishness is really vividly embodied in Li Chen's body! During Li Chen's reign, he was considered to have created a prosperous and prosperous world after the Anshi Rebellion! Not only did they sympathize with the people, but they also recovered the lost land. Considered a Ming Jun, there is Li Shimin's Fan of that year!
The emperor has been there for a long time, and he doesn't want to die! After all, covetousness is something that everyone has, and the emperor is not one of them. He's not beautiful, but he's a good elixir! A generation of Ming Jun was still late in his reign, and in the later period of his reign, because of the pursuit of immortal elixirs, he believed in those Taoist immortals. Eventually died on the elixir!
