Qiu Ziliang is the main supporting role in the TV series "Song with the King", he deposed the emperor, controlled the imperial court, turned his hand into a cloud, overturned his hand for rain, is the righteous father of the male protagonist Qi Yan, and is also the biggest villain in the play, his prototype in history is the Tang Dynasty's eunuch Qiu Shiliang.
Qiu Shiliang came from a family of eunuchs, from the change of Ganlu to the peak of his life, took Tang Wenzong Li Ang as a puppet, and also supported Tang Wuzong Li Yan to take the throne, although he was forced to retire by Emperor Wuzong, but his family colluded and supported Tang Xuanzong Li Chen to take the throne, and his niece of his own family was also married to Xuanzong and was highly favored, and the Qiu family was able to regain its glory, like a fiery cooking oil.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" >01, from a family of middle eunuchs</h1>
Tang Dynasty Kaifu Yi Tong Sansi, Internal Attendant Zhi Shi, Chu Gong Qiu Shi Liang (781-843), character Kuang Mei, was a native of Xingning, Xunzhou (present-day Xingning, Guangdong).
Qiu Shiliang came from a family of eunuchs, and some people may laugh when they see this, and a eunuch still dares to call the family? But don't laugh, the eunuchs of the Tang Dynasty can really be called family.
What is Saga? It simply refers to the continuation of political status and the inheritance of property, such as the Ru'nan Yuan clan of the fourth and third dukes, such as the Langya Wang clan of wang and Ma Gongtian, etc., all of which have lasted for generations in the center of power.
The same is true of eunuchs, as long as there have been four nobles in the family (left and right lieutenants and privy councillors), or generations of long-term supervisors and envoys, they are considered eunuch families.
Why did the Tang Dynasty form a family of eunuchs? It was because they could marry and adopt children, and pass on their power and position from generation to generation, they would not form a family of eunuchs of different sizes.
Qiu Shiliang, who came from a family of eunuchs, had three generations of ancestors naturally been eunuchs, his great-grandfather was the Grand Master of the Orthodox Council, the Inner Gift, and the Qiu Shangke of the Silk Fish Bag, the grandfather was the Imperial Counselor, the Inner Constant Attendant, and the Purple Goldfish Bag Qiu Fengfeng, and the father was tejin, the General of the Left Guard Guard, and the Purple Goldfish Bag Qiu Wensheng. Qiu Wensheng is suspected to have a younger brother, who is the Zhongwu Army Supervisor Envoy, the Zhengyi Doctor, the Internal Gift, and the Purple Gold Fish Bag Qiu Wenyi.
For example, Qiu Wenyi's wife Wang Shi was Wang Jinxing's adopted daughter, and Wang Jinxing's son was Wang Yuanyu, and his other adopted daughter was married to Ma Gongdu (Ma Cunliang's family); Yang Zhilian's adopted niece, Yang Weiliang's adopted daughter, and Yang Qinyi's adoptive cousin Yang Jun, was married to Liu Guangqi's adopted son Liu Shurun; Qiu Shiliang's adopted daughter was also married to Li Jingshi's adopted grandson Li Haogu, who was the executor of Wang Shoucheng.
Among the eunuch families of the Middle and Tang Dynasties, the Qiu family was originally only medium, but it was because of Qiu Shiliang that it became a hot and high-class family.
Around the sixteenth year of zhenyuan (800), Qiu Shiliang, who was not weak in the year, came to the Eastern Palace to serve as a eunuch by the side of the crown prince Li Shu (Shunzong), and was very popular with the crown prince's eldest son, Li Chun (Xianzong), the prince of Guangling.
On the twenty-third day of the first month of the twenty-first year of the Zhenyuan Dynasty (805), Emperor Dezong of Tang died, and on the twenty-sixth day, the long-ill crown prince Li Shu took the throne with the support of Yang Zhilian, a lieutenant of the Left Army, as Emperor Shunzong.
Because Shunzong had been ill for a long time, the Wang Shuwen clique he reused tried to seize the eunuchs' military power, and was counterattacked by the eunuch clique, and the unspeakable Shunzong became a puppet, and the crown prince Li Chun was embraced in the forefront. On July 28 of that year, the crown prince supervised the state, the fourth Shunzong Zen throne in the beginning of August, the fifth change of Yuan Yongzhen in the first five months of August, and the ninth prince Li Chun in early August, that is, the emperor's throne, which was for Emperor Xianzong.
In this chaotic first year of Yongzhen, Qiu Shiliang, a lowly and contemptible Qiu Shiliang, was awarded the title of Doctor of gongjiao from jiupin and given a fish bag, judging from his promotion, it was obvious that he had merit in the coup d'état that overthrew Emperor Shunzong, and had merit in the service of Emperor Xianzong.
Therefore, after Emperor Xianzong ascended the throne, Qiu Shiliang began to walk on the road of Feihuang Tengda, and in the first year of Yuan He (806), he was again moved to the internal gift of Wupin, added Xuanhui to the official, and gave the purple gold fish bag.
Subsequently, he also transferred to the Sandafu and the Inner Servant to give things to the province, and then worshiped the Inner Constant Attendant, and used the official as the envoy of the Inner and Outer Five Fangs, all because of "the old EnBengu, the new Womilong", so Qiu Shiliang was extremely arrogant.
In the first month of the fifth year of Yuan He (840), when ShishuiYi and Yushi Yuanshu were fighting for the upper hall, the tyrannical Qiu Shiliang beat up the yuan shu fat who came first and forcibly occupied the upper hall. King Zhongcheng sent a letter requesting Emperor Xianzong to punish Qiu Shiliang according to the old practice, but Emperor Xianzong demoted the bitter lord Yuan Shu to Jiangling Shicao to join the army, and Qiu Shiliang remained in good fortune.
In the tenth year of Yuan He (815), Qiu Shiliang increased the number of zhongfu and the permanent attendant of the inner servant province, and also served as the envoy of the Pinglu Army as the supervising envoy of the Lu Army, and the following year (816) he was appointed as the envoy of The Huaixi Expedition.
On the twenty-seventh day of the first month of the fifteenth year of Yuan He (820), Tang Xianzong, who had become grumpy and abnormal because of poisoning with Dan Yao, was murdered by the eunuchs Chen Hongzhi and Wang Shoucheng at the Zhonghe Temple.
Tutu Chengcui, a lieutenant of the Left Army who was deeply trusted and favored by Emperor Xianzong, wanted to avenge Emperor Xianzong, while Liang Shouqian, a lieutenant of the Right Army who had originally supported King Hao, and others, feared that they would become a pond fish that was affected, and were unwilling to engage in infighting, so they joined forces to booby-trap Tutu Chengcui and had to murder King Hao to show his sincerity to the crown prince Li Heng.
On the third day of the first leap month, the crown prince Li Heng took the throne for Muzong, and he knew very well that the eunuch who supported him might be killing his father's enemy, but he had no military power in his hands, and he was mediocre and powerless to resist, and could only indulge in wine.
After the left lieutenant Tutu Chengcui was killed, the deputy envoy Ma Cunliang should have been promoted to lieutenant in turn, but the right lieutenant Liang Shouqian appointed his close associate Ma Jintan as a lieutenant of the left army, and suppressed the left army hard. That is, starting from the Yuanhe Reverse Case, the left army that was originally above the right army began to fall under the right army, and until the change of Ganlu, the status of the left army of Shen Ce was inferior to that of the right army.
Qiu Shiliang, who was the backbone of the left lineage, although he was also promoted because of the new jun's ascension to the throne, moved the general Yunlu and the general of the Right Prison Gate, filled the inner and outer five envoys, gave the pillar state, and entered the founding man of Nan'an County, three hundred households, and added the champion general of the three products in the winter of that year, but it could not hide the frustration of the left military department where he belonged.
In the first year of Changqing (821), Qiu Shiliang dismissed the Envoy of Wufang, and used his own county to seal the Kaiguozi, to find the Marquis, to eat a thousand households, and to serve the official as before. In the following year (822), he was appointed as the military envoy of Fengxiang, and entered the founding of the country, with 1,500 households.
In the second year of the Jingzong Bao calendar (826), Qiu Shiliang returned to the dynasty and restored it to Xuanhui. On the eighth day of December of that year, Su Zuoming and Liu Keming murdered Emperor Jingzong and plotted to establish Emperor Muzong's maternal brother Li Wu the Prince of Dai, and the Privy Councillor made Wang Shoucheng, Yang Cheng, and Li Han the Prince of Jiang, the younger brother of Emperor Jingzong, take the throne as Emperor Wenzong.
In this coup d'état, Qiu Shiliang also had merits for Emperor Wenzong, so he entered the feudal county and ate 2,000 households, but was soon removed from the imperial court by the Right Army and appointed as an envoy of the Eyue Supervision Army.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="110" >02, the change of manna is on the peak of life</h1>
In the first year of Taihe (827), liang Shouqian, a lieutenant in the right army, made Wang Shoucheng a right lieutenant, and the left lieutenant Wei Element was still subordinate to him. However, Qiu Shiliang, who had been circling in the second and third lines, finally entered the dynasty in this year as an official of Xuanhui and transferred to the Inner Fang Dian Nei Province.
Obviously, Qiu Shiliang's Hui Dynasty was related to Tang Wenzong, who was trying to revitalize him, and Emperor Wenzong, who was trying to castrate himself, began to favor the weak Left Army in order to eliminate the arrogant Wang Shoucheng.
Therefore, Qiu Shiliang, who soon returned to the dynasty, was worshipped as the deputy envoy of the Right Army, and in the second year of Taihe (828), he was promoted to the right leader wei general Neihe Wufang envoy, and in the sixth year of Taihe (832), he was known as a governor of the inner servants, and finally became one of the top eunuchs of the Wenzong Dynasty and became a front-line figure.
In May of the ninth year of Taihe (835), Qiu Shiliang replaced Wei Element as a lieutenant in the Left Army, and also served as a meritorious envoy of Zuo Jie, and the general knew that things were as it had been.
In June, the former lieutenant Wei Yuan, the privy councillor Yang Chenghe and Wang Jianyan, were demoted from the imperial court by Emperor Wenzong and died on the way. In September, Emperor Wenzong recalled Chen Hongzhi (陳弘志) to be killed by the Shandong Eastern Province Supervisory Army, and promoted Wang Shoucheng to the position of Envoy of the Left and Right Divine Strategies Army and Commander of the Twelve Guards, and promoted Yu Hongzhi to the position of Right Lieutenant.
In October, Emperor Wenzong sent Li Haogu to give poisoned wine to Wang Shoucheng, and the once-prominent Yuan and rebels all went to this point. Qiu Shiliang, the left lieutenant, became the number one person in the eunuch clique.
Tang Wenzong, who was dazed by the victory, actually followed the advice of Zheng Zhu and Li Xun and wanted to exterminate the eunuchs, and they originally planned to let Zheng Zhu become the envoy of Fengxiang Jiedushi, and take advantage of the opportunity of burying Wang Shoucheng to send troops to wipe out the high-ranking eunuchs who were sent to the funeral, but Li Xun, in order to monopolize his great achievements, said that Emperor Wenzong would attack in advance in the capital.
Under Li Xun's layout, Emperor Wenzong appointed Guo Xingyu (郭行余) as the envoy of The Imperial Household of Dali, Wang Fan as the envoy of the Hedong Festival, Luo Liyan as the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, Han Yu as the general of Zuo Jinwuwei, and Li Xiaoben as the governor of the Imperial Household.
Li Xun asked Guo Xingyu and Wang Fan to recruit Zhuang Ding as a pro-army in the name of going to the post, and then asked Luo Liyan to gather more than 300 soldiers from Jingzhao Province, Li Xiaoben to gather more than 200 soldiers from Yushitai, and Han Yue to agitate some of the Jinwu guards.
Everything was ready, and on November 21 of the ninth year of Taihe (835), Emperor Wenzong arrived at the Zichen Palace, at this time, Han Yue came to report as planned: The pomegranate tree in the Kingo Left Temple fell from the sky last night, please move to watch. Hundreds of officials congratulated Emperor Wenzong one after another.
Li Xun stopped him and said that Ganlu did not know whether it was true or not, and that he should send someone to see it before announcing it to the outside world. Therefore, Emperor Wenzong ordered the lieutenants and privy councillors to check it out. Qiu Shiliang and the other four guis went to the Left Guard Courtyard, and Li Xun hurriedly summoned Wang Fan and Guo Xingyu to lead the two town soldiers to come in, but only Wang Fan's Hedong town soldiers obeyed the orders, and the Bing Ning soldiers actually ignored Li Xun's instructions.
Moreover, when Qiu Shiliang's people came to the Zuo Shu Courtyard, they only saw Han Yue's nervous and sweaty appearance, Qiu Shiliang's conscience was suspicious, and he heard the voice of the soldiers ambushing behind the scenes, several eunuchs quickly went outside, the janitor was just about to lock the door, Qiu Shiliang rebuked loudly, and a group of people pushed the door out and rushed to the Hanyuan Temple.
Li Xun saw the eunuchs returning, knew that the matter had been exposed, and hurriedly beckoned Jin Wuwei to escort the temple, with a heavy reward. Luo Liyan brought people from the east, and Li Xiaoben brought people from the west, a total of more than four hundred people, and fought with the eunuchs in the palace.
Qiu Shiliang ordered the people to take Emperor Wenzong away, Li Xun's side desperately tried to stop it, the cowardly and fearless Emperor Wenzong did not dare to make a sound, allowing the two sides to pull, seeing that Emperor Wenzong was surrounded by Xuanzheng Gate, Li Xun shouted urgently, Emperor Wenzong was worried about exposing himself, but instead angrily rebuked Li Xun, the eunuch Qiqie Zhirong a black tiger knocked Li Xun to the ground, Li Xun watched as Emperor Wenzong abandoned him and was embraced by the eunuchs into the palace gate.
When the door of the East Pavilion was closed, Qiu Shiliang's heart returned to the throne, and the emperor did not panic in the palm of his hand, and immediately ordered a large-scale killing ring. He ordered Liu Tailun and Wei Zhongqing, deputy envoys of the Left and Right Divine Strategies, to lead five hundred Divine Strategists to rush out of the cabinet gate and carry out indiscriminate killing.
The eunuchs, who had been arrogant and accustomed to arrogance since the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, were very angry the first time they faced the direct counter-killing of courtiers, so they opened the mode of indiscriminate killing, killing everyone, and more than 600 officials in the two provinces and The Kingo, as well as those who did not escape, were killed. The chancellor Wang Ya, Jia Yusu, Shu Yuanyu, and others were just preparing to eat in Zhongshu, and they also fled after hearing the news, but they were soon captured by the forbidden army.
Qiu Shiliang ordered the people to close the palace gates, searched the palace for officials, and killed more than a thousand people, and the corpses were bloodied and ruined, and the seals, books, and utensils of the various divisions were destroyed. They also sent troops to the city to make a big deal out of the city, and sent more than a thousand cavalrymen out of the city to pursue them, and for a while people were panicked.
Wang Ya, Jia Biao, Shu Yuanyu, Li Xiaoben, Luo Liyan, Wang Bian, Guo Xingyu, and Han Yue were all killed by Qiu Shiliang, and Li Xun was arrested after escaping from the city, and in order to avoid being tortured by eunuchs, Li Xun tricked the soldiers who captured him into killing him. The Fengxiang Jiedu who was still going according to the original plan made Zheng Zhu also arrested and killed.
This coup d'état made Qiu Shiliang even more vicious, and he launched a bloody killing of courtiers, and the secretary of state was half-empty, and all the killings and worship were all decided by the lieutenants of the two armies, Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi, "Everything under the heavens is decided by the North Division", Emperor Wenzong was completely reduced to a puppet, and the prime minister only carried out documents.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="111" >03, and Emperor Wuzong was forced to retreat</h1>
After the Ganlu incident was settled, Qiu Shiliang took the lead of his life to the peak of his life, the right lieutenant Yu Hongzhi also added the right guard general, and the great Yingku made Song Shouyi plus the right leading wei general. From then on, the eunuchs became more and more imposing, coercing Tianzi from above, despising the prime minister, and depressed Emperor Wenzong to the point of inability.
Qiu Shiliang deeply resented Emperor Wenzong for colluding with Li Xun to plot against the eunuchs, and planned to depose him and install the crown prince on the throne, but Emperor Wenzong was weak and did not take responsibility, and was as clean as a white lotus in the change of manna, so Qiu Shiliang could not find a legitimate reason to depose Emperor Wenzong.
According to the New Book of Tang, Qiu Shiliang had summoned the Hanlin scholar Cui Shen to write the edict of abolition, but Cui Shenning did not obey, and the Hanlin scholars who saw such a weak chicken were opposed to the abolition, and Qiu Shiliang could only give up in sorrow.
However, according to historical research, Cui Shen only entered the dynasty during the middle period of Xuanzong's reign as a right-hand man, Wailang and Zhizhi, and Wenzong did not serve as a bachelor in the last years, so it can be seen that the new Tang Dynasty record is fictional, and there is no qiu Shiliang summoning Cui Shencao to abolish this matter.
However, Qiu Shiliang did have the intention of abolishing the establishment, and Emperor Wenzong also knew that he was hated, so he was jealous of his own son Li Yong, because he was worried that Qiu Shiliang would imitate Ju Wenzhen and force Emperor Shunzong to support Emperor Xianzong.
Because of the Zhaoyi army's thriftiness, Liu Congzhi had always threatened to raise troops to the side of the Qing Emperor in Beijing to seek justice for the chancellor Wang Ya, and on October 16, 838, the crown prince Li Yong died suddenly and violently, Qiu Shiliang, who was liu Congcheng's target on the side of the Qing Emperor, never had a chance to make a move.
Because of the death of the crown prince, it was necessary to reconsider the question of the choice of heir, and the eunuch clique united in the change of Ganlu was once again divided.
The Privy Counsellor made Liu Hongyi stand with the chancellor Yang Sifu and Yang Fei to support the emperor's brother Li Rong the Prince of An, while another privy councillor, Xue Jilin, and the chancellor Li Juejue supported the emperor's nephew and Emperor Jingzong's son Li Chengmei the Prince of Chen, while the lieutenants of the two armies, Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi, did not have a team, but waited for the opportunity.
On October 18, 839, Emperor Wenzong of Tang made his nephew Li Chengmei the Prince of Chen crown prince. On the second day of the first lunar month of the following year (840), Emperor Wenzong, who was ill, sent Hisashi Chancellor Li Jue (李珏) and Liu Hongyi (劉弘逸) to oversee the state under the command of The Crown Prince Li Chengmei.
Such an arrangement once again exposed Emperor Wenzong's inability and incompetence, you know that Qiu Shiliang hates you, but because the master-servant relationship is superficially unable to treat you well, at this time you should exert your strength to the imperial palace, summon the zai and the courtiers, and publicly declare that the prince is in charge of the country, Qiu Shiliang absolutely does not dare to tear his face for this, if he dares to completely stand against the people of the world.
But Emperor Wenzong did not do so, but secretly ordered Li Jue to let him serve as the crown prince to supervise the country, well, Qiu Shiliang did not dare to tear his face with the Son of Heaven in front of the people of the world, and privately could not get a prime minister?
Therefore, Qiu Shiliang signaled Li Jue to change people, and after being rejected, he directly corrected the establishment of a cold stove that no one cared about, the emperor's brother Li Yan (李炎), and made him the emperor's brother-in-law, and the military and state affairs, and the crown prince Li Chengmei was restored to the residence of King Chen.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the indignant Emperor Wenzong collapsed, and Qiu Shiliang once again launched a new round of killing, killing Li Chengmei the Prince of Chen, Li Rong the Prince of An, and the restless Concubine Yang, the objects of political enemy support, and supporting the ascension of the emperor's brother Li Mao to the throne for Emperor Wuzong of Tang.
Because of the dingzhi gong, Qiu Shiliang moved the grand general to ride the grand general, entered the duke of Chu, and gave the Ji Gong Monument. At this time, Qiu Shiliang's titles were -- Zuo Jie Meritorious Envoy, Lieutenant of the Protector Army, Kaifu Yi Tongsan Division, Governor of Provinces, General of the Upper Rank, and sealed three thousand households.
Originally, he thought that he would continue to be a mighty blessing as before, but what Qiu Shiliang did not expect was that Wuzong was much stronger than his fathers and brothers, not only had an opinion, but also had a very responsible heart, and was superficially respectful of Qiu Shiliang.
The tall Qiu Shiliang who was lifted up was dumb and even bitter, because of Emperor Wuzong's strength, the peak moment when Qiu Shiliang's words and deeds were bound to do no longer existed, and the unwilling Qiu Shiliang made several small moves, all of which ended in failure, and under the harmony between Emperor Wuzong and the chancellor Li Deyu, qiu Shiliang, whose power was suppressed, could only admit it.
After all, no matter how fierce the eunuch is, he is also a man, and he is afraid of people, especially a big eunuch like Qiu Shiliang, who has a family and a room and a huge family property, once the emperor is strong, no eunuch dares to go hard and hard, and enjoy the glory and wealth of life. Can you fight with the emperor to the death or can you replace himself as the emperor?
In this way, under the blindness of Emperor Wuzong's ascension and secret surrender, huichang three years (843), the weak Qiu Shiliang had to write a letter to ask for Zhi Shi's retirement, and on the third day of June, Emperor Wuzong allowed him to give him a letter as a general of the left guard and an internal attendant, and a governor of the province.
On June 23, Qiu Shiliang, who had only returned home for twenty days, died at the age of 63, and this eunuch who had killed two princes, a concubine, and four prime ministers, and who had been greedy and cruel for more than twenty years, actually died well, and Emperor Wuzong resigned for two days and posthumously presented it to the governor of Yangzhou.
On the twenty-third day of the first month of the fourth year of Huichang (844), Qiu Shiliang was buried in Fengqiyuan Sheji Village, Ning'an Township, Wannian County, and his wife Lu Guo, who died before him, and The Hu clan (?) -842, so Kaifu Yi moved to be buried with him by the third division, the guest of the inspector prince, the daughter of the imperial master, and the daughter of Hu Cheng'en, the shangshu of the ministry of households.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="113" >04, Xuanzong is the Emperor of the Qiu clan</h1>
Of course, Emperor Wuzong did not forget to continue to eliminate Qiu Shiliang's forces, and in the fourth year of Huichang (844), some people exposed that Qiu Shiliang's family was secretly hiding thousands of weapons, and Emperor Wuzong issued an edict to pursue his official position and confiscate his home.
The once-prominent Eunuch Family of the Qiu Clan, under the strong pressure of Emperor Wuzong, had to clip its tail and behave as a man. The eunuch clique that had previously held the emperor hostage bowed their heads in front of the powerful Wuzong, and the eunuchs' power was seriously suppressed.
However, as long as the emperor continued to appoint eunuchs, and the eunuch family existed, the eunuch group would not be completely eradicated, and it would only change from arrogance to obedience and obedience.
In fact, Like his grandfather Xianzong, Because he had the ability to control eunuchs, Wuzong did not think much of eunuchs and did not realize that eunuchs would change their faces, so even if they were suppressed, the eunuch power of the Huichang Dynasty did not disappear.
Li Yi (Li Chen), the prince of Guang, who was ambitious and deeply understood the role of the eunuch clique, had secretly communicated with the eunuchs before Emperor Wuzong fell ill in September of the fifth year of Huichang (845), and from the inscriptions and documents unearthed so far, the Qiu family that was suppressed by Emperor Wuzong was the intermediary of the Guangwang Transportation Eunuch Clique.
In short, in March of the sixth year of Huichang (846), Emperor Wuzong, who loved drugs, fell seriously ill, and the lieutenants of the Left Army, Ma Yuanzhen, the lieutenant of the Right Army, Liu Xingshen, the Lieutenant of the Right Army, and Yang Qinyi, the Privy Counsellor, made Li Yi the Prince of Guang the Emperor's uncle, and on March 23, Emperor Wuzong collapsed, and Li Yi the Prince of Guang, that is, the emperor, changed his name to Li Chen, and was made Emperor Xuanzong.
With Emperor Xuanzong ascending the throne, in order to reward the eunuch clique, the power of the eunuchs was fully revived, and the Qiu family, which was suppressed by Emperor Wuzong, also gained Zhongxing.
Qiu Shiliang's five adopted sons, the eldest son Qiu Congguang, served as Xuanhui envoy; the second son Qiu Congzong (a non-eunuch), Cao Zhou's assassin; the third son, Qiu Congyuan, the Cabinet Envoy; the fourth son, Qiu Congwei, and the envoy of The Imperial Guard; and the younger son, Qiu Congyi, who was also promoted.
Even Qiu Shiliang's son-in-law, Li Haogu, who was demoted by Emperor Wuzong to the post of envoy to the hezhong and Xiangyang overseers, was also made an envoy to felt fang and a deputy envoy to the Right God Ce Army, and was a military envoy to Cangjing, ZhejiangXi, Lingwu, Shannan, and other towns, and added the founding duke of Longxi and 2,000 households, which was highly valued by Emperor Xuanzong.
Not only that, the Qiu clan also dedicated to Xuanzong a daughter of the Qiu clan, Lady Fengnan'anJun, who had the favor of a special house, gave birth to an imperial daughter, and in May of the fifth year of the middle school (851), she gave birth to the crown prince Li Wen (851-866).
Qiu Died shortly after childbirth, at the age of 24, and was posthumously gifted to her, and Xuanzong personally wrote an epitaph for her, "The Epitaph of qiu Shi, the gift of the Lady of Nan'an County".
In the same year that Qiu Cairen died, Xuanzong rehabilitated Qiu Shiliang by erecting a Shinto monument on the grounds that Qiu Shiliang had a meritorious service to his grandfather Shunzong (Shunzong, who was bullied by eunuchs, was so angry that he looked around for bricks), and his father Xianzong had a commission for him (Xianzong wondered what the name of my thirteenth son was), so Xuanzong erected a monument for him and let Qiu Shiliang's merits be "immortalized".
However, during the reign of Emperor Wuzong, he tried his best to suppress the eunuch forces, suppress Qiu Shiliang, and did not have his home to revitalize the imperial power. After Emperor Xuanzong ascended the throne, instead of continuing to promote Emperor Wuzong's thunderous means, he erected a monument to Ji Gong for this power that bullied Emperor Wenzong, slaughtered courtiers, and had his hands stained with the blood of his relatives, and favored his pro-party, which really insulted the title of "Little Taizong", and Emperor Taizong Li Er knew about it and probably got angry.
Of course, Xuanzong's unlimited favor and connivance with the eunuchs also shows that his ascension to the throne is not as innocent as the zhengshi preaches, and if it were not for the eunuch clique's great contribution to Xuanzong's ascension to the throne, Xuanzong would not have treated the eunuchs so courteously, allowing them to rekindle their mighty blessings and become the uncrowned emperor of the Tang Dynasty again.
In short, because Qiu Shiliang rose from a middle-class family to a top-class Eunuch family of the Qiu clan, after Emperor Xuanzong Li Chen took the throne, the family was revived again, and in this situation, Qiu Shiliang was enough to be blinded.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="114" >05, Monkey said</h1>
Qiu Shiliang has strategy, scheming, deep understanding of people's hearts, but also riding and shooting, good at playing ball, "versatile, strong memorization, planning and painting if the gods, reading books without escaping the mind." "When you strike the square, you gallop a hundred horses; if you bend the arc wild, you fly down the double eagle."
Such a person who can write and play is naturally very popular with the recalcitrant emperor, so he has led the Five Fang envoys three times, and added xuanhui to the official eight times, "entering and leaving the Seven Dynasties, and displaying the Three Ages."
He was also proficient in the conspiracy and trickery of gaining power and inviting favors and misleading the king to harm the country, and just before he retired and left, the eunuchs below sent him home, and Qiu Shiliang taught his colleagues with a heavy heart:
The Son of Heaven cannot let him be idle, as soon as he is idle, he will go to study, meet confucian courtiers, listen to advice, learn to think deeply, so that he will have less fun and travel luck, and he will not rely so much on us, so what else are we mixing?
Therefore, in order to secure our position, it is better to collect treasures, to collect eagles and horses, to confuse him every day with polo, hunting, singing and dancing, and wine, to make him extremely poor and extravagant, to be trapped in them without knowing tiredness, and when he does this, he will hate the scriptures, will not listen to advice, become blinded by ears, and be cut off from the ministers, and then he will rely on us to act, so that grace and power can still run out of the palm of our hands?
The eunuchs nodded their heads and thanked him. Judging from Qiu Shiliang's True Scriptures, it is really three hundred and sixty lines of behavior, and Qiu Shiliang can also be regarded as a champion in the eunuch industry.
The most crucial thing is that he did not hide his secrets, but passed on his experience to his descendants, so that they could continue to seduce the people with sounds and horses and extravagant things, which was simply the great pope of the crooked and evil Sect.
Emperors who want to be famous in history should actually take Qiu Shiliang's solid favor as a warning, and always remind themselves not to fall into the trap of lust and be manipulated by treacherous and evil ministers.
However, after all, self-disciplined people are rare, and lustful people are more common, so the Qiu Shi Zhenjing will probably never lack a market, and Qiu Shiliang can also be said to be another kind of immortal.
That's it.
