Yuan Tiangang said to Li Shimin: Pigs on the tree, the Tang Dynasty died, Li Shimin secretly stole joy, and the result was that the Tang Dynasty still died!
In our history, many monarchs are Ming monarchs, especially those who founded the country pay more attention to their own dynastic destiny, so they are often able to listen to good advice to govern the country well, and they also hope that their children and grandchildren can govern the country well like themselves and not let the power fall into the hands of others. Li Shimin was a very prosperous emperor who governed the country according to his father's wishes. Li Shimin, who later succeeded to the throne, has always attached great importance to the selection of talents and has always paid close attention to education. And Li Shimin was also very frugal, so during his reign, the Tang Dynasty became a very prosperous situation.
Once Li Shimin asked Yuan Tiangang how long Datang's national fortunes could last. At this time, the Tang Dynasty was prosperous and prosperous, and there was no country around it that did not submit. Yuan Tiangang was very embarrassed, if he said the real result, it meant that the Tang Dynasty would always perish one day, such remarks would obviously anger Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and then he might not even be able to save his life; if he said false fooling, Li Shimin was not a fool, of course, he could hear what it meant, and it was also difficult to deal with.
And Yuan Tiangang's answer not only saved his life, but also returned home safely. Although during the reign of Tang Taizong, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the economy was also upstream, and the whole social atmosphere was very good. But every emperor is very concerned about how long his country can be maintained, after all, it is a hard-won right, and he has worked hard to build a country. Yuan Tiangang calculated, but did not answer Li Shimin's question positively, only saying, "When the pig goes up the tree." Hearing this divination result, Li Shimin was overjoyed, how could the pig go up the tree, this is impossible, so the Tang Dynasty will continue forever and will not perish."
However, Yuan Tiangang took advantage of Li Shimin's elation to resign and return to his hometown, and Li Shimin also felt that there was nothing to calculate, so he readily agreed. Perhaps because of the heavenly chance, Yuan Tiangang died when he returned home. At the time of the demise of the Tang Dynasty, it was to verify his law, "Zhu" and "pig" are harmonic sounds, it was Zhu Wen who destroyed the Tang Dynasty, this person is also a strange person, first revolted with people, halfway and then turned to the Tang Dynasty, the scholar Cao Cao was above the Tang Dynasty, engaged in power tricks, did whatever he wanted, the emperor was like a toy in his hand, and finally forced people to give way and change dynasties.
