The temple name Taizong can be said to be the second highest title for an emperor. Since the beginning of the temple, Taizong has always been a scarce title, not counting those few separatist regimes and foreign countries such as Vietnam, which are really pitiful.
One. Emperor Taizong of Han Liu Heng
Liu Heng, the well-known Emperor Wen of Han, opened the first great reign of han. During his reign, he made great efforts to govern, repair water conservancy, dress simply, and abolish corporal punishment, so that the Han Dynasty entered a period of strength, prosperity and stability.
Liu Heng did his filial piety and personally fed medicine to his mother, Empress Bo, with high morals. During his reign, he was both soft and hard, giving some thrones to the deposed Han clan relatives and consolidating his rule. For the ministers who supported him, he gave high-ranking officials Houlu and gave shelter to the old ministers who followed the founding of the country.
In agriculture, the reduction of rents, the reduction of servitude, and the permission to privately develop mountains, forests, salt, and iron have greatly stimulated the development of the private economy. He was frugal, pursued the study of Huang Laozhi, and developed steadily, providing a solid foundation for future generations of Martial Emperor Gongfa to fight. Called the last Taizong Temple number
Two. Tang Taizong Li Shimin
This was a strange man, Li Yuan's right-hand man in attacking the world, and also a small number of the emperor's masters of war. Encouraging his father Li Yuan to oppose Sui, defeating the Sui general Duan Da and becoming the King of Qin, his exploits can be seen.
First, the Battle of Qianshuiyuan pacified Xue Rengao (Xue Ju's son) in Longxi, eradicating the Tang Dynasty's threat from the West. Second, defeat Song Jingang and Liu Wuzhou, recover and merge the lost land, and consolidate the northern part of the Tang Dynasty. Third, in the Battle of Tiger Prison, the two major separatist forces in the Central Plains were annihilated in one fell swoop: Wang Shichong of Henan and Dou Jiande of Hebei, so that the Tang Dynasty gained the right to rule North China. Fourth, it severely damaged The remnants of Dou Jiande, Liu Heimin, and Xu Yuanlang of Shandong. This was his main war exploit, and every battle was basically won with less.
During the construction period, great importance was attached to the clarity of the rule of officials, the abolition of redundancy, the establishment of a supervision system, the encouragement of the people to report, and the rotation of Beijing officials to prevent the formation of the party. Militarily, the use of troops against the Hui, Turkic, Xueyantuo, Gaochang, Guizi and other countries solved the problem of Tang's external troubles. The economy and military developed in parallel, and they were called heavenly khans outside the country, appointing talents, following the flow of advice, and perfecting the prefectural military system and the equalization system.
In addition to the change of Xuanwumen is a black spot that cannot be erased, and has made outstanding contributions to the development of Chinese history, there are also shortcomings such as good and great achievements, fainting, extravagance and waste in the later period, but the flaws are not hidden, and Emperor Taizong is worthy of the name.
Three. Emperor Taizong of The Ming Dynasty (Chengzu)
Zhu Di has always longed for himself to be recognized by the history books, Taizong is not only a honorific title, but also a recognition of his succession orthodoxy, but unfortunately, Jiajing, in order to give his father and other posthumous titles, can only upgrade Zhu Dizong's number and become an ancestor, seemingly promoted, but it is said that his position is not correct.
Like Li Shimin, Zhu Di was also an iron-blooded emperor who followed Zhu Yuanzhang in his southern expedition to the north and made great achievements. Two northern expeditions captured the Mongol generals and maintained the stability of the north. Due to Zhu Yuanzhang's wanton killing of the founding heroes in his later years, the crown princes Zhu Biao, the King of Jin, and the King of Qin died successively, and Zhu Di became the largest clan in his generation. Zhu Yunwen slashed the domain, and a series of royals were killed and deposed, causing Zhu Di to panic. So he led an army to rebel, and Jing Nan successfully became emperor.
The improper position made him have the same idea as Li Shimin and expand his merits. The abolition of the Jianwen period was the same as the policy of the Taizu Dynasty. Appease the king of the clan, cut the clan on the soft side, and stabilize the mood of the clan. Like Zhu Yuanzhang, he moved rich households, strengthened his control over the landlords, and preached Taoism and Buddhism, laying the foundation for the ideological development of later generations.
Stabilizing the north, he went to Mongolia five times in succession, so that Mongolia and Daming established friendly relations. The Wallachians and Tatars accepted the Ming title, and Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing to tighten control over a minority regime. A supervision system was established, the domain was further reduced, the centralization of power was strengthened, and organizations such as the JinyiWei were restored. The southern conquest of Annam brought Vietnam into the Ming dynasty and paid tribute endlessly. Dredging canals, linking the north and south, reclaiming jiangnan, developing tun tian, and relieving disasters made the Ming dynasty reach the peak of population.
The compilation and revision of the "Yongle Canon" and the construction of other buildings such as the Forbidden City in Beijing have left a valuable spiritual wealth to future generations. Zheng He went to the West, received foreign envoys, and all nations came to the DPRK, a truly world power.
These Wenzhi martial arts were the main advantages of his ability to obtain the title of Emperor Taizong. Political clarity, military strength, the opening of the dynasty of all nations, wit and bravery, the use of both culture and martial arts, attach importance to the people's livelihood, except for the injustice to Emperor Jianwen, the rest of the work is impeccable.
