The emperor is the supreme ruler in the feudal dynasty, in order to compete for the throne, the historical figures are also unscrupulous, before the Li Shimin Xuanwumen mutiny, Zhao Kuangyin yellow robe plus body. Later, nine sons of the Qing Dynasty seized the concubine.
It is today to say, is a "unique" emperor, the way to ascend to the throne is more wonderful than the above mentioned ones, through pretending to be crazy and stupid, he actually became the emperor, and also governed the prosperous world, what is going on?
Among the twenty-two emperors of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzong Li Yi was undoubtedly the most legendary. The degree of stimulation of his ascension to the throne was second only to that of Li Shimin, who pioneered the "Rule of Zhenguan", but because most of the Chinese only focused on the early Tang And Sheng Tang, Tang Xuanzong of the late Tang Dynasty has not been popular.
Li Yi, the legendary king of light Li Chen, is a talented actor who has even reached the pinnacle of perfection in terms of pretending to be stupid. From childhood to adulthood, he fooled everyone inside and outside the palace, and all the Chang'an people invariably thought that he had a brain problem. The New Book of Tang is written euphemistically, saying that it is "in the palace or think it is not wise" .
However, the "Zizhi Tongjian" is not polite, directly saying that "everyone in the palace thinks it is not wise."
Why did the Light King pretend to be crazy and stupid? Later generations speculated that it might be related to a fright during Muzong's years. It is said that one day, the King of Light went to see Empress Yi'an, but unexpectedly bumped into an official and assassinated him, and since then the King of Light has become silent, and on all occasions, he has become the object of ridicule and teasing.
In the blink of an eye to the Wenzong Dynasty, King Guang became more taciturn, and Emperor Wenzong often drove to the Sixteen Houses and the kings to drink and feast, "so as to tempt his words to be funny." But despite the kings' ridicule, this "uncle of light" was always like a piece of wood, and even the corners of his mouth did not move.
Looking at the Light King's attitude, the crowd became happier and happier, and Emperor Wenzong smiled closely, but the later Wuzong could not laugh.
On a snowy afternoon, the King of Light and the princes traveled with the Son of Heaven, and everyone was a little drunk and misty-eyed. "Uncle Guang" once again "accidentally" fell from his horse and fainted in the ice and snow, and the crowd did not even notice.
At midnight, the King of Light woke up, just as the patrol passed by, Li Chen said, "I am the King of Light, and I fell here" (Ling Hucheng", "The Relics of Zhenling"), and the patrol sent him back to the Sixteen Kings' Residence.
Emperor Wuzong was sure that "Uncle Guang" would definitely not be able to come back this time, but he did not expect that the next day, he saw the living Li Yi again in the Sixteen Mansions.
At this time, Wu Zong was angry enough, feeling that no matter how much this person tossed, he could not die. Therefore, Emperor Wuzong secretly ordered four eunuchs to take him down, and the chamber was closed for several days. The eunuch Qiu Gongwu really couldn't bear to look at it, and said: "The prince should not sink in the toilet for a long time, it is better to kill him" (Wei Zhaodu's "Records of the Continuation of the Emperor Wang Baoyun").
After obtaining Emperor Wuzong's consent, Qiu Gongwu felt that the strange goods could be lived in, so he risked his life to rescue Li Chen from the toilet of the Daming Palace, even if it was a feces stained, he had no complaints. He hid the Guangwang in his private car, covered it with feces and other items, and secretly sent him out of Chang'an City.
After Li Chen, the King of Light, left Chang'an, he raced all the way to the east. From then on, he hid his name and went into exile, and finally fled to Anguo Temple in Zhejiang To cut his hair and become a monk, until he later returned to the court.
After the death of Emperor Wuzong, who was the son of the day became a problem. The "mentally retarded" Guangwang became a popular candidate for a while. Because let such a "stupid hat" sit on the dragon chair, at least you don't have to worry about it anymore, and you can control it.
What the Wenwu officials did not expect was that in the late Tang Dynasty of the Li clan, after Li Chun of the Xianzong Emperor, there was actually another Lord of Zhongxing, from a "mentally handicapped person" to a generation of powerful emperors, and Xuanzong's transformation was completely beyond people's imagination.
During his reign, he defeated Tubo, recovered Hehuang, stabilized Northern Saibei and pacified Annan, which was called "the rule of the Great Middle", and the late Tang people called him "Little Taizong", which gave the Tang Empire a wave of life.
Unfortunately, at the age of fifty, he was poisoned and died because of taking the elixir of immortality.
