The capital of Jiangxi is Nanchang City, and Nanchang has a landmark building, Tengwang Pavilion. The builder of the Tengwang Pavilion was Li Yuanbao, the King of Teng. Li Yuanniang's father was Emperor Taiwu of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan, and Li Yuanbao's brother was Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin. Li Yuanbao's nephew was Li Zhi, emperor of the Tang Dynasty. The author's post today tells the story of King Teng and the three emperors of the Tang Dynasty.
On the fourth day of June in the ninth year of Wu De, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Rebellion, killing the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the Qi king Li Yuanji. Li Yuan ceded the emperor's throne to Li Shimin and abdicated himself as Emperor Taishang. After Li Yuan abdicated, he was placed under house arrest by Li Shimin in the palace. Li Shimin gave his father many beautiful women and let his father raise him for a long time.
Li Yuan was full of food and had nothing to do, wandering around the flowers all day, and the beautiful woman was greasy and crooked, and as a result, he gave birth to several children. Li Yuan infant was the son born after Li Yuan abdicated, Li Yuan infant was still in infancy, and his father Li Yuan died. In Li Yuanniang's life, he basically did not feel the love of his father.

Li Shimin was brilliant and talented, and Li Yuannian knew that he was not his brother's opponent, so he did not dare to covet the chair in the Taiji Hall. Li Yuannian didn't want to be an emperor, he just wanted to be a prince of leisure. Li Shimin crowned Li Yuannian as the King of Teng, and asked him to go to Tengzhou in Shandong. After Li Yuannian arrived in Tengzhou, he immediately built a Tengwang Pavilion.
Li Yuannian built the earliest Tengwang Pavilion in Shandong, and also did a lot of absurd things. Li Yuannian likes to hunt, and every time he hunts, he sends out thousands of troops and horses. Li Yuannian did not cherish the people, and when hunting, he connived with the guards to trample on the people's crops. The common people complained bitterly, and some Si Yamen wrote a letter to impeach Li Yuanbao.
Li Shimin received an impeachment from a Shandong official and had no choice but to transfer Li Yuannian away. Li Yuannian was transferred to Golden State as the Assassin of Golden State. Li Yuannian was in Jinzhou, and he did three more absurd things, making Tang Gaozong Li Zhi half dead.

The first absurd thing Li Yuannian did was to hit people with a slingshot on the street. Li Yuannian hit the people with projectiles, and the people fled one after another. Li Yuannian laughed while shouting fun. (This incident is exemplified by the New Book of Tang: "Take the pill and bullet people, and watch them walk and avoid the pleasure.") ”）
The second absurd thing Li Yuannian did was that "the city gate opens at night, and there is no longer a festival." The Golden State has turkic Ashina. Sima's troops, Li Yuannian opened the city gate at night, in case the Turks sneaked in, it would be undefended. Li Yuannian joked about the lives of the people of Jinzhou, and as a result, he was impeached again.
When Li Shimin died, Emperor Gaozong of Tang held a state funeral for his father. According to the ceremonial system, officials are not allowed to have recreational activities during the period of national mourning. Li Yuanbao, as a Tang Dynasty official and the younger brother of Li Shimin, actually "gathered the officials to drink and dance, and raised them in a cunning manner".
Li Zhi heard that the emperor actually held a song and dance party during the funeral period of his father's death, and he was also angry enough. Li Zhi issued an edict, scolded the emperor's uncle Li Yuanbao, and then transferred him to Nanchang as the governor. At that time, Nanchang was called Hongzhou, and Li Yuanniang's official position was the governor of Hongzhou.

After Li Yuannian arrived in Nanchang, he built the world-famous Tengwang Pavilion, but he also did a ridiculous thing. Li Yuannian fell in love with her husband Zheng Yan, but Zheng Yan did not give him a chance. Li Yuannian wanted to take a hard bow and forcibly submerged Zheng Yan. In the name of Princess Teng, Li Yuannian summoned Zheng Yan to the governor's palace to pay homage.
Zheng Yan had no choice but to enter the Governor's Mansion. Li Yuannian wanted to use strength against Zheng Yan, and Zheng Yan had already prepared. Zheng Yan took off her shoes and jerked Li Yuanbao's face with the soles of her shoes.
Zheng Yan shouted as she played: "Wang Ye is today's long-lived uncle, a highly respected heavenly nobleman, how could he do such a thing?" It must be the house slave who pretends to be the prince to ruin the reputation of the prince, and I must teach you a lesson for the prince today. ”
Zheng Yan beat Li Yuannian on the head and bled, which alarmed a cadre of people in the Governor's Mansion. Li Yuannian was beaten, and he did not dare to admit it, insisting that it was a domestic slave who impersonated him and insulted Zheng Yan. Li Yuannian suffered a dumb loss, and could only declare to the outside world that the person who was beaten was a domestic slave, not him.

This incident was recorded by Ouyang Xiu in the New Book of Tang, the original text is: "Officials who are wives and beauties, are summoned as concubines and forced to be selfish." Taste the signature of Cui Jian's wife Zheng Yan scolded, in order to offset the blood flow of the yuan baby's face, it is exempt. Yuan Bao is ashamed, and he does not look at things for many years. ”
Li Yuanbao, as a grand prince, was beaten by the woman, and did not dare to say a word, and after more than ten days, he dared to see people after being injured. Do you think Li Yuannian is particularly stupid?
Li Shimin felt that his brother Li Yuannian was stupid, and Tang Gaozong also felt that his uncle Li Yuanniang was stupid. Li Shimin and Li Zhi, a little suspicious of Li Yuanbao's IQ, are a bit skeptical of the taste of life. Wu Zetian also felt that Li Yuannian was stupid and didn't bother to kill him. During Wu Zetian's large-scale massacre of Li Tangzong's chambers, Li Yuannian not only did not die, but was also promoted by Wu Zetian.

Let's look back at the end of Li Shimin's brothers, the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the Qi king Li Yuanji were killed by Li Shimin. Li Yuanchang, the King of Han, was also killed by Li Shimin. Li Yuanjing, the King of Jing, was killed by Emperor Gaozong of Tang. Li Lingkui the King of Lu, Li Yuanjia the King of Han, and Li Yuanlu the King of Huo were killed by Wu Zetian.
Li Shimin's brother, a man with some ability, is a dead end. From childhood to adulthood, Li Yuannian was the image of a fool, not only to die rich and good, but also to give birth to eighteen sons.
In my opinion, Li Yuannian is not really stupid, but is using the "false stupidity" strategy in the thirty-six counts to save his life. The absurd things that Li Yuannian did were actually "false fools", and the easy-to-understand saying was that they were wise and foolish.
The author has a historical material in his hand, which can prove that Li Yuannian is "not epileptic". Li Yuannian's calligraphy and painting level are very high, and he is the founder of "Tengpai Butterfly Painting". Li Yuannian was able to become a generation of sect masters of the Kaizong Founding Sect, how could such a person be a fool?
The author also has a historical material in his hand, which can prove that Li Yuannian is "not epileptic". Every time Li Yuannian broke into trouble, the strength was just right. Li Yuannian made small mistakes continuously, and major crimes were not committed. If he is really stupid, how can he be so accurate in mastering the scale of mistakes?
It can be seen that Li Yuannian is a master of counting. Knowing that the throne was hopeless, he used the strategy of "false delusion" to not only preserve wealth, but also save his life. High, really high!
