How powerful is An Lushan, this Hu person who has made the Tang Dynasty prosperous and declining?
I recently read the Quan Tang Wen and saw an article by Li Longji of Tang Xuanzong's "Feng'an LuShan Dong Pingjun Wang System", which mentioned An Lushan's title and concurrent official position, like an extended version of the full title of the post, counting it, there were actually 90 words.
An Lushan's title and official position:
Kaifu Yi tong three divisions and right Yulin army general external with the main member of the imperial history of the governor of Fanyang Governor Shi Liucheng Commandery Shi Liucheng Commandery Taishou Festival Chong Fanyang Festival, through the slight branch of the Yingtian land transport escort two Bohai Sea Black Water and other four provinces festival disposal and Pinglu Army Hebei shipping and internal interviews and other matters on the pillar state Liucheng County founding public security Lushan
The Old Book of Tang records that on July 6, 750, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, officially awarded An Lushan the title of "King of Dongping County", which is the main content of the short article "Feng'an Lu Shandong PingJun Kingship".
In this article, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji pointed out: "... An Lushan, Sexual Harmony Tao, Qi Yu Xiong Wu. The sound and power are vibrating in the desert, and the royal power is better than that of the Great Wall. ”
Tao 钤, pronounced tāo qián, refers to the ancient military books "Liutao" and "Jade Plutonium", and later also refers to the book of soldiers, also borrowed to refer to the use of military strategy, or borrowed to refer to military generals. Here, "Sexual Harmony Tao Tao" means that An Lushan has the temperament and temperament of a general, which is in line with the criteria for judging a general in the Art of War, and the meaning of praise is overflowing with words.
The matter of the Great Sealing of An Lushan, for the royal family, was originally a matter of raising hands, it was as easy as a palm, and the parties concerned would not feel that there was anything wrong with it, everything was so commonplace. However, who could have imagined that such a thing would actually push the Tang Dynasty into the depths of the waters, and a prosperous world would be pulled down.
When Tang Xuanzong woke up, it was already too late, but he had become clear in the "Pro-Conquest of An Lushan's Edict", and looking back on the past, he said: "An Lushan was originally a subtlety, promoted to the ranks, entered Xiao Zhong and sold himself, and Bao Ju was greedy for heaven." ......... Now he has stolen my deeds, deceived my soldiers, falsely proclaimed secret wills, and falsely slandered them. People are afraid of fierceness and power, and they are coerced, called soldiers to que, and kill and plunder innocents. Is this excusable, but what is intolerable? ”
Haha, a bit off-topic, let's move on to the topic of this name.
Speaking of An Lushan's long name, I checked it out, and in the same period as An Lushan, there was another person who was very important in the political arena, and his name was also very long, that is, Yang Guozhong.
How long is Yang Guozhong's name? There are 93 words, 3 more than An Lushan.
Yang Guozhong's name:
Yinqing Guanglu Grand Master Yushi Dafu Judging Branch Secretary of The Governor of Shu Prefecture Shi Zhi Jie Jiannan Jiedu Zhi Zhi Jie Jie Du Zhi Du Yingtian and other deputy ambassadors Hondo and Shannan West Province Interview disposal made the two Jing TaiFu Si Nong Cashier Supervisor Cang Ancestral Shrine Sacrifice Charcoal Palace City Changchun Jiucheng Palace Envoy Kannai Dao and Gyeonggi Interview Disposal Made Shangzhu Guo Hongnong County Founding Bo Yang Guozhong
We know that in ancient times, bandits blocked the road and robbed, often had to report their own names, if An Lushan Yang Guozhong and these people went to fight with bandits, when they wanted to report their names, it was estimated that the scene would be very funny.
Li Longji, the emperor who suffered from old age and confusion, did not take precautions against Yang Guozhong and these people in An Lushan, and also gave them a large reward, and one official position after another was like not wanting money, so he rewarded these people. You must know that behind these names, they all correspond to the way to loot treasures, and every official position is a source of income, with a clear income and a hidden income, all of which are the blood and sweat of the common people.
Look at what Li Longji said, he said in "Granting Yang Guozhong's Right Phase System": "Yang Guozhong, pure and shrewd, suspenseful and vain." Compared with the pipe music, the text is more important than the word; it is intended to be in The Wei Dynasty, and the Wu has the study of Tao. ”
Here, the four words "pure shrewdness" are really ironic to read. A pure person, but also a shrewd person, is really a proverb.
Suspension, roughly means getting rid of the shackles. Ordinary ordinary people are bound by emotions, which is called upside down, and getting rid of upside down is called "hanging". It can also be understood as epiphany, enlightenment. Humble acceptance is the meaning of humble acceptance and humble learning. The meaning of these two words together is roughly like this.
