I would like to ask you, if you had to choose a favorite ancient dynasty, which dynasty would you choose? If it is a small editor, it will not hesitate to choose the Tang Dynasty, in the heart of the small editor, the Tang Dynasty is the ideal ancient feudal dynasty should be like, the Tang Dynasty is not in vain. At that time, Datang was the most advanced country in the world, coming from all over the world, and the Tang Dynasty was very prosperous in economy and open-minded in social atmosphere.
Speaking of the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, everyone may think of Tang Taizong, Wu Zetian and Tang Xuanzong, but who can think of Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty? It can be said that Li Yuan, as an emperor, he is still very remarkable, he has the great talent of a king, but he was miserable by his son Li Shimin. Could this be the legendary "pit daddy"?
It was also very difficult for Li Yuan to become emperor. He was originally a high official of the Sui Dynasty, he was outstanding in ability, and he won the respect and support of various heroes Haojie, and the Sui Emperor was very jealous of him and wanted to kill him several times. After Li Yuan knew The Mind of Emperor Sui, he immediately slackened off in political affairs, did not do a serious thing all day, and went out with a group of friends to find pleasure, just like the image of a prodigal prince who did not do his job, Li Yuan's play was too good, and the Sui Emperor really believed him, thinking that Li Yuan had no great ambition, so he let Li Yuan go.
In fact, Li Yuan has been cultivating his strength behind his back, he is just waiting for the best time. Later, the Sui Emperor was killed, and Li Yuan immediately came out to do great things, and he ascended to the throne in one fell swoop and founded the Tang Dynasty. What is even more serious is that li yuan only took 4 years to pacify the rebel forces in China and complete the great cause of national reunification.
Unfortunately, Li Yuan is very powerful, and his son Li Shimin is better than blue out of blue, even more powerful than him. Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Rebellion and disguised li yuan to make him crown prince, and it was not long before Li Yuan passed the throne to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin knew that his means of ascending to the throne were not very glorious, so he desperately tried to find reasons to smear the image of his father and make the world think that Li Yuan was an unqualified emperor. Alas, it can be said that Li Yuan's glorious image was completely ruined by Li Shimin. However, this may also be the history destined in the dark, the Tang Dynasty in the hands of Li Shimin really entered the most brilliant period.
