Now it is said that the Northern Song Dynasty was not a great unified dynasty, and it was also the era of the Little Three Kingdoms, that is, the Northern Song Dynasty, the Great Liao and the Western Xia established by the Dang Xiang people. The Western Xia called itself "Bangni Dingguo" or "Great White High Country". The Western Xia dynasty was very mysterious and strong, and it stood side by side with the Liao and Northern Song dynasties in the early stage, and the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty in the later period. After the Ten Emperors, Guozuo 189 years, if from Tuoba (Li) Sigong appointed as the envoy of the Dingyan Army, the Western Xia was founded in 346 years.
Dangxiang is an ethnic group that has been living in the plateau area, originated from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, in fact, as a branch of the ancient Qiang people, since the Tang Dynasty began to grow from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. One of the Tuoba tribes of the Northern and Southern Dynasties migrated to Gansu, Qinghai area, Zhenguan eight years, the Tuoba tribe swore allegiance to the Tang Dynasty, was given the surname Li by Li Shimin, and was also named the highest local administrator.
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, due to the meritorious rescue of the party leader Tuoba Sigong, Tang Xizong named Tuoba Sigong's army as a difficult army, and more importantly, ordered Tuoba Sigong to govern - Xiazhou, Yinzhou, Youzhou, Suizhou, and later ruled Jingzhou, a total of five states of the land Jiedu envoy, Tuoba Sigong is actually the founding emperor of Western Xia. During the period of the Five Dynasties, the Dangxiang clan was left and right in the troubled times, secretly accumulating strength, and in 907, the Khitans established the Great Liao in the north. Soon, in 960, Zhao Kuangyin established the Great Song Dynasty, and the party members once again came to the crossroads of history.
After Zhao Kuangyin established the Song Dynasty, Li Yiyin, the envoy of the Xiazhou Festival at that time, immediately sent an envoy to congratulate him, and avoided his grandfather Hong Yin, and changed his name to Yixing to show his attachment. Li Yixing died in the fifth year of Song Qiande, and his son Li Guangrui inherited him. After Zhao Guangyi succeeded to the throne, he had realized the strength of the party members, and he did not want the party members to stand on their own, so he put forward a request for changing fiefs, and this time he simply asked the party nobles to move back to Bianliang. At this time, Li Jisheng did not dare not agree, not only agreed to the internal relocation, but also took the initiative to return the jurisdiction of the hereditary five states to the Great Song Dynasty.
However, this decision was strongly opposed by Li Jiqian, the younger brother of Li Jisheng, and he gathered forces to attack the border of the Song Dynasty. After Li Jiqian occupied Yinzhou, his subordinates elected Li Jiqian as the king of Xiping. In order to fight against the Great Song Dynasty, Li Jiqian turned his allegiance to the Great Liao and established an alliance with Liao, and Li Jiqian also married the princess of Liao.
At this time, Li Jiqian broke with the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Guangyi was naturally dissatisfied with this, but several crusades ended in succession, and after Song Zhenzong ascended the throne, he ceded the five states of Xia, Sui, Yin, You, and Jing to Li Jiqian, in fact, recognized the independent status of Western Xia. After Li Jiqian's death, Li Deming succeeded to the throne, and Li Yuanhao, the son of Li Deming, succeeded Xia Guogong in the tenth year of Tiansheng in the Northern Song Dynasty. He began to use the name of the Western Xia dynasty and sent a large army to capture the three strategic places of Guazhou, Shazhou and Suzhou in Tibet. In this way, Yuan Hao already owned the land of Xia, Yin, Sui, You, Jing, Ling, Hui, Sheng, Gan, Liang, Gua, Sha, and Su, that is, northern Ningxia, small part of Gansu, northern Shaanxi, eastern Qinghai and parts of Inner Mongolia.
On October 11 of the first year of Song Baoyuan, Li Yuanhao was proclaimed emperor and founded the country as Daxia.
There are eight tribes in the Dangxiang clan, and Li Yuanhao belongs to the most powerful Tuoba tribe. In 1034 AD, in the third year of Li Yuanhao's succession to King Xia, Li Yuan's maternal uncle Wei Mushan Xi intended to rebel and plot misdeeds, and was annihilated by Li Yuanhao in one fell swoop, and regardless of his mother's pleading, the entire Wei Mu family was killed.
Originally, Li Yuanhao's mother made the harem of the Tuoba family exclusive to the Wei Mu family, so Li Yuanhao's first queen came from the Wei Mu family, at this time, because Queen Wei Mu was pregnant, she escaped a catastrophe, but just when Queen Wei Mu felt lucky, the favorite concubine of another Yeli tribe family in the harem began to covet the back position of the Wei Mu family, just after Queen Wei Mu gave birth to a baby, the Ye Li family began to spread rumors in the harem, saying that the son born to Queen Wei Mu did not look like Li Yuanhao, that is, he cuckolded Li Yuanhao, and Li Yuanhao will say that Queen Wei Mu has killed her own son without investigation。
So the Yeli clan, who framed Wei Muhou for cuckolding Li Yuanhao, became the first queen after Li Yuanhao ascended the throne, and their second son Li Ningling became the crown prince, because the boss practiced qigong and couldn't eat to death, but no one thought that Li Yuanhao felt that the Yeli tribe was too powerful, and five years after Li Ningling became the prince, the queen's Yeli brothers, the court's important ministers Yeli Yuqi and Yeli Wangrong were executed.
But after killing people, Li Yuanhao soon regretted it. So he began to look for the descendants of the two families, and soon someone found that Li Yeli's begging wife did not hide the black cloud. What's more critical is that Li Yuanhao fell in love with the black cloud and wanted to be included in the harem, and the Yeli clan couldn't accept the transformation of his sister-in-law into Li Yuanhao's favorite concubine anyway, Li Yuanhao had no choice but to keep the black cloud outside the palace. did not hide the black cloud and later gave birth to a son to Li Yuanhao, Li Yuanhao later loved the house and Wu, so that the brother who did not hide the black cloud did not hide the side as the prime minister.
At this time, Li Yuanhao fell in love with a new woman who should not have fallen in love, and the wife of the crown prince Li Ningling did not move, so he took it for himself and set up a "new queen". The daughter-in-law was robbed by her father, her mother also fell out of favor, and her crown prince position had to be abolished sooner or later, in this case, Li Ningling decided to launch a coup d'état, so with the assistance of the prime minister, he launched a coup d'état in the tenth year of Yanzuo, and cut off Li Yuanhao's nose with his own hands, and the 45-year-old Li Yuanhao bled to death. But after the praying mantis caught the cicada and the yellow finch, the prime minister did not hide it, and immediately killed Li Ninglingge and the former queen Ye Li for the "crime of killing the king".
Immediately afterwards, he did not hide his nephew Li Liang to succeed to the throne, at this time Li Liangzuo was only one year old, and his mother did not hide the queen mother. did not hide the false Pang and later married his daughter to Li Liangzuo. The most pitiful thing here is actually the one who didn't move, was robbed by his father-in-law after he got married, and his husband cut his father-in-law again, and now his husband was also killed, and finally, Western Xia and Liao were at war, and Liao took away Wuyi, and there was no news of this poor woman in the future.
The blood of the old Li family is also not clean, and after the 13-year-old Li Liangzuo became pro-government, he actually fell in love with the daughter-in-law of his uncle and father-in-law, the Han daughter Liang. Then Li Liangzuo and the Liang family teamed up to wipe out the Wuzang family, and then established the Han Liang family as the queen and ruled himself. Since then, the dictatorship of the Western Xia Dynasty has become a feature of the Western Xia Dynasty, of course, this has a lot to do with the social status of nomadic women.
