In Chinese history, Liu Ziye, the sixth emperor of the Liu and Song dynasties during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, left an outrageous period of rule. Filial piety is the first of a hundred virtues, but Liu Ziye is the opposite of this moral concept. His behavior without filial piety is deeply stunning.
During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Liu Ziye was born in 449. His father was Liu Jun and his mother was Empress Wenmu Wang Xianyu. However, his teenage years are not shrouded in happiness, but are filled with tragedy. Although his mother was prominent, Emperor Xiaowu of Song favored Concubine Xuan and her son Liu Ziluan, and Liu Ziye was left out in the cold. This unfair treatment was deeply imprinted in Liu Ziye's heart, breeding jealousy and resentment in his heart.
Liu Ziye was intelligent and studious since childhood, but Emperor Xiaowu of Song made every effort to make things difficult for him. This differential treatment made Liu Ziye become stubborn and perverted, and his temper became more and more violent. His character gradually twisted and he became an emperor with a dark heart.
In 464, Liu Ziye succeeded to the throne as emperor. However, his performance after ascending the throne was completely different from loss and grief, but he became callous and ruthless, without the sadness of his father's death. His unfilial piety and perverted behavior became more and more presumptuous.
Liu Ziye's mother, Empress Wen Mu, was seriously ill and hoped to see her son one last time before she died. However, Liu Ziye refused with words, even regardless of his mother's mood, afraid of ghosts and refused to visit. This act of unfilial piety can be described as appalling. Liu Ziye also tried to defile his father's mausoleum, which was stopped by his subjects, but he kept insulting his father and making the mausoleum undefiled.
Liu Ziye's crimes are much more than that. He mutilated his uncles, imprisoned them in the palace, and even gave them humiliating nicknames. His uncle King Xiangdong was the most victimized and was imprisoned in a bamboo cage, where he was called the "Pig King". Liu Ziye's cruelty and debauchery plunged the country into chaos inside and outside.
Liu Ziye's crimes were not limited to his own uncle, he even showed no mercy to the women and children in the palace. He hunts for beautiful women, whether noble or noble, as long as he likes them. He even ordered that the palace ladies be allowed to frolic naked, and that guards who did not follow orders were executed. His perverted actions plunged the country into chaos and his subjects suffered greatly.
Liu Ziye even had an improper relationship with his own aunt, Princess Xincai, and imprisoned her in the palace. He lied that Princess Xincai was dead and arranged for a woman who had suspended animation to replace her. This kind of absurd and unscrupulous behavior has deteriorated the morality of the country.
In addition, Liu Ziye also had an improper relationship with his own sister Princess Shanyin. Princess San'in is also an adulterous person who will not hesitate to kill her husband for pleasure. Liu Ziye's various evil deeds plunged the whole country into a deep crisis.
Liu Ziye's atrocities finally aroused the displeasure of his cronies, and he was assassinated. This lustful emperor, who reigned for only two years, finally embarked on the road to destruction. His behavior devastated the entire country.
Overall, Liu Ziye was one of the most absurd and brutal monarchs in Chinese history. His unfilial, cruel and unscrupulous behavior is unbelievable. This dark history teaches us that the education of parents and the environment in which they grew up have a profound impact on a person's character and behavior. But most importantly, a person must learn to let go of hatred, face his heart clearly, and live a positive and sunny life.
