You don't have to say that the emperor who has the temple name of "Taizong" has many stories, although it is not like the title of the title is "not in the right place", but the position is also quite difficult.
What does the temple number "Taizong" mean? "Tai" generally means the first, while "Zong" refers to the King of Shoucheng. "Taizong" is the first monarch to keep the monarch, generally speaking, it should be the second monarch, but if you really look at history, Taizong is not necessarily the second monarch. We can look at them one by one.
Banished to doubtful clouds - Shang Taizong Taijia
Taijia was the first Taizong in Chinese history and the fourth monarch of the Shang Dynasty. There was no problem with Taijia succeeding to the throne, he was the eldest grandson of Shang Tang, the son of Tai Ding, and the nephew of Zhongren. However, when this Shang king succeeded to the throne, he was assisted by Yi Yin, but he was not very successful, and as a result, he was exiled by Yi Yin, and later changed his former wrongs and became a generation of sages after his return. However, there is a saying that after Zhongren's death, Yi Yin usurped the throne and expelled Taijia, and 7 years later, Taijia sneaked back to the capital, killed Yiyin and then reinstated. I think this statement is more in line with human nature!
The group of ministers supported the establishment of Liu Heng of the Han Dynasty
The Han Dynasty was very strict about temple numbers, and the general emperors did not, including the Han Jing Emperor. Emperor Taizong of Han was Emperor Wen Liu Heng, who was proclaimed emperor by his subjects. In fact, his temple number is debatable, after all, his brother Huidi Liu Ying was the real emperor before, and this temple number is equivalent to not recognizing the status of Huidi, but after all, people are victors, which is also no way. But overall, Liu Heng's position is still positive.
Southeast dawn - Wu Taizong Sun Xiu
Sun Xiu was Sun Quan's sixth son, originally the King of Langya, but with Sun Liang deposed, he was welcomed by Zhuge Ke, but the power of the dynasty was controlled by Sun Lin. Sun Xiu showed favor to Sun Linyang, but secretly conspired with the ministers Zhang Bu and Ding Feng to kill Sun Lin at the feast and eliminate his forces. This Sun Xiu was a good emperor, who was supposed to be the dawn of the State of Wu, but his lifespan was too short, and eventually the throne fell into the hands of the tyrant Sun Hao, and the State of Wu also perished. Since Sun Liang, the second emperor of the State of Wu, was deposed, Sun Xiu theoretically became the second monarch of the State of Wu.
The provisional monarch, Sima Yu of Emperor Taizong of Jin
Sima Yu was the younger son of Sima Rui, the founding emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but he was already the eighth emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which showed the chaos of the politics of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. When Sima Yu became emperor, he was already 51 years old, and in fact, he was a puppet of Huan Wen, whose life was in the eventful autumn of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and he had no talent to save the decline of the river. He died hastily after two years on the throne, and we don't know where the temple name of "Taizong" came from.
Lord Ba Yi Ying - Li Xiong of Chenghan Taizong
Li Xiong, a native of the Baqi people, proclaimed himself king of Chengdu in the first year of the Jin Dynasty (304) and emperor two years later. Therefore, Li Xiong was actually the founder of the Chenghan regime, but because he posthumously named his father Li Te as Taizu, his temple name became Taizong. Li Xiong has a good evaluation in history, and he is a generation of British lords.
Descendants posthumously sealed - Later Zhao Taizong Shi KouMi
Who is Shi Koumi? He was the father of Later Zhao Taizu Shi Hu, who posthumously honored him as Emperor Taizong. However, it is interesting that Later Zhao's gaozu is Shi Le, Shi Hu is Taizu, and Taizu and his father are actually Taizong, it is estimated that this ethnic minority is still tough, huh. Or could it be that Shi Le is Shi Hu's uncle, so Shi Hu is another business?
Northwest Chenggong - Former Liang Taizong Zhang Mao
In the third year of the Jin Dynasty (320), the former Liang emperor Zhang Yu was suddenly killed by his subordinates, and his son was too young to handle government affairs, so he had to follow the tradition of his brother and brother, and his younger brother Zhang Mao was in charge of Liangzhou. However, the Former Liang regime did not claim the title of emperor, so the Houshi generally made Zhang Mao a Duke, in short, the level was not high.
A descendant of Former Yan, Murong Chong of Western Yan
Murong Chong was the son of Murong Jun, the former Yan ruler, and the younger brother of Murong Hong, the lord of Western Yan. After Murong Hong was killed, he was proclaimed emperor. Murong Chong had been working against Former Qin, dreaming of restoring the glory of the Great Yan State, but was also killed by his subordinates.
Former Qin Sunset - Former Qin Emperor Taizong
In fact, Former Qin fell mainly in the hands of Gong Deng, who was the grandson of the former Qin emperor Zhi jian, and after Zhi Pi was killed, he was supported by his subordinates and ascended to the emperor's throne. In fact, Fei Deng was not a true former Qin inheritor, this person had a very high self-esteem, and eventually lost to Yao Cang's father and son, and was killed by Yao Xing, and the glory of Former Qin was gone.
Gen Zheng Miao Hong - Northern Wei Taizong Tuoba Heir
Tuoba Si was the eldest son of Emperor Daowu, and was made crown prince shortly after his birth, and was the first shoucheng prince in the true sense. Tuoba Si also had a good evaluation in history, and he advised farmers to take a break with the people, and vigorously restore and develop agricultural production. Unfortunately, his life expectancy was not long, and he died at the age of 32.
The leader of the rebellion, Liu Yu of the Taizong of the Liu Song Dynasty
The one above is the first true Taizong, and this one is indeed the Taizong who came to power by rebellion. Liu Song Ming Emperor Liu Yu Song Wen Emperor Liu
Yi Long's eleventh son, who ascended to the throne by killing his nephew Liu Ziye, the former deposed emperor, served him in successive conquests, and fought with his clan, fortunately, he did not reign for a long time, otherwise Liu Song would be doomed when he arrived.
Temple number change - Xiao Liang Taizong Xiao Gang
Xiao Gang was the third son of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liangwu, and he became crown prince after the early death of Prince Zhaoming. However, later Hou Jing rebelled against Liang and starved Xiao Yan to death, and Xiao Gang became a puppet emperor, and was eventually killed by Hou Jing, whose posthumous temple name was originally "Gaozong", but the later Liangyuan Emperor Xiao Xuan took pity on this brother and changed the temple name to "Taizong".
Blood Splash Xuanwu – Tang Taizong Li Shimin
This is almost a household name of Taizong, Li Shimin directly made the temple number "Taizong" famous in history, and also raised this temple number to a higher level, because Li Shimin has pioneering achievements, whether it is the sweeping of the crowd in the early Tang Dynasty, or the Southern Expedition and Northern War after the succession, or its Wenzhi, which can be described as the premier emperor in history. However, it cannot be denied that the illegality of Li Shimin's inheritance has played a certain side effect on the history of later generations.
Kill his brother and stand on his own------------
Li Shimin's example is "good". Wang Yanjun, the third emperor of the Min regime, one of the Ten Kingdoms, began to kill his brother and establish himself. However, Wang Yanjun was later killed by his son, and the earliest temple name was also Taizong, but it was later changed to Huizong.
Acting brother Chenghe - Liao Taizong Yelü Deguang
Yelü Deguang was originally the second son of Taizu Yelü Abaoji, and after Taizu's death, he was supposed to be succeeded by Yelü Bei, but Empress Shu Luping did not like him and preferred the second son Yelü Deguang. At that time, Yelü Deguang was also a grand marshal, with heavy troops, and had suppressed some nobles who opposed his succession. He ascended the throne with the support of his mother, who spent most of his life in her shadow.
Candle Shadow Axe Sound - Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi
The ancient mystery case is coming! Zhao Guangyi inherited the throne when his brothers and heirs were all adults, which was indeed very doubtful. Later generations also criticized him a lot, and I have to say that this is also the "sequelae of Xuanwu Gate".
Carry on from above to below - Li Deming, Emperor Taizong of Western Xia
Li Deming was the eldest son of Taizu Li Jiqian, and there was no problem in succeeding to the throne. Li Deming was an emperor who followed Taizu's will and successively submitted to the Song and Liao dynasties. Peaceful coexistence with the Song and Liao, the expansion of trade exchanges, and promoted the transition from the Dangxiang ethnic society to the feudal system. The foundation was laid for his son Li Yuanhao's final title as emperor, and his temple title was also posthumously sealed.
Gao Feng Liang Festival - Jin Taizong finished Yan Sheng
Finished Yan Sheng was originally the younger brother of Taizu Completed Yan A bone, and ascended the throne according to the system of Jurchen brother-in-law. Completed Yan Sheng stabilized the Jin Dynasty, gradually adopted the Han system, reformed the old customs, created various canonical systems, laid the scale of the Jin Dynasty's economy, and in his later years he changed the old succession system of the Jurchen brothers and brothers, and established the grandson of the Great-grandfather Guanyan as the heir, and completed Yan Sheng can be described as a punch in the face of Zhao Guangyi.
Break the tradition - Yuan Taizong Wo Kuotai
The Tradition of the Mongols was that the youngest son kept his job, and as a result, Genghis Khan passed the position of Great Khan to the third son, Wokoutai, who valued his intelligence and steadiness. Of course, Wokoutai is also excellent and completes the task very well. Unfortunately, the infighting among the Mongols was a tradition, and the Yuan Dynasty imperial lineage finally came to the fourth son, the Torre clan, but it was also worthy of him to posthumously honor Wokoutai as Emperor Taizong.
Jing was difficult to seize the throne - Emperor Taizong of Ming
After Zhu Di's rebellion was successful, he erased everything about Emperor Jianwen and claimed that he was the first choice of Emperor Taizu. After Zhu Di's death, his son was also deeply righteous, and gave Taizong the temple title, which proved that Zhu Di was the first monarch of Shoucheng, and Emperor Jianwen did not count! As a result, more than 100 years later, in order to move the place for his father's tablet, the Jiajing Emperor changed Zhu Di's temple number to "Chengzu", which really hit Zhu Di's face. Zhu Di also became the last Emperor Taizong to gain an improper position.
Elect the emperor, Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty
At that time, Houjin did not have a fixed succession system, and as a result, under the compromise and checks and balances of various forces, the eighth son, Aisin Kyora Huang Taiji, eventually became the victor, of course, Noshi also said that Huang Taiji seized the throne of Dorgon, which I think is not very credible. A young man who has flag power but no prestige cannot convince the public, and Dorgon is not a young son. Huang Taiji was actually not very lucky, and the year after his death, the Qing army entered the customs. Emperor Taiji could only become "Taizong", and his son eventually became "Shizu".
Judging from the above inventory, there are still many stories of the Taizongs, but there are only a few who are not in the right position in serious calculations. Objectively speaking, most of The Taizong succeeded to the throne in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, when the country's foothold was unstable, and it was understandable that various accidents occurred. On the whole, there are many accidents in dividing the regime, and the great unification dynasty can only rely on extraordinary means to ascend to power.
