In the chaotic world of the strong and weak south and north dynasties, there is a Han hero who bravely resisted foreign nationalities and made outstanding contributions to defending the last Han regime and traditional Chinese culture in the south.
Because the Chen Dynasty established by Chen Baxian was too short, and it was partial to the left of the Anjiang River, and the territory was so small that when people mentioned the Chen Dynasty, they remembered either Chen Hou lord and "Flowers in the Backyard of the Yushu Tree", or the allusion of breaking the mirror and reuniting, and the contribution to Chen Baxian's restoration of the southern economy and the protection of the traditional Chinese culture in the south was little known.
And it is precisely because Chen Chaoguo zuo is short, only 33 years, his temple ceremonial system is also ignored like Chen Baxian, whether it is ancient historians or modern scholars, it is a brush stroke, bringing certain troubles to readers who want to understand the Chen Dynasty temple system.
Monkey Grid, who is not (strong) self(forced) to measure (symptom) force, for the integrity of the temple system of the four generations of the Southern Dynasty, refer to the historical materials of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and try to show the Chen Dynasty temple system to everyone.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" >01, from the Five Temples of the Princes to the Seven Temples of Tianzi</h1>
Emperor Gaozuwu of Chen Gao, xingguo, small character Fasheng, was a Wuxing person, who claimed to be a descendant of Chen Yi of the Han Dynasty, of course, some scholars believe that this ancestor was attached to him.
Whether it is climbing or not, from the Han Dynasty to the Southern Dynasty, to the generation of Chen Baxian, the Chen family belongs to the cold class, and Chen Baxian's social status before his development is very low, first as a lisi in the township, and later as an oil depot official in Jianye, all of which are lowly special servants.
Chen Baxian had few great ambitions, but also was good at strategy, good at reading military history, proficient in martial arts, and soared through his own efforts, and eventually became a high-powered Liang Dynasty courtier.
In September of the first year of Liang Taiping (556), Shi Zhong, Situ, Du Du, Ban Jian, Gong Chu, Jia Wan, and Marquis Chen Baxian of Great Wall County, were promoted to the rank of Chancellor of The Jin Dynasty, Lu Shang Shushi, and General of Zhenwei, and the Duke of Yixing County. His father, Chen Wenzan (陈文zan), was posthumously given the title of Gong of Yixing Commandery (義興郡公) and was posthumously honored with the title of Gong (恭).
In the first month of the second year of Taiping (557), Xiao Fangzhi, the son of The Great Liang, posthumously honored Chen Baxian's deceased brother Chen Daotan as the Duke of Changcheng County, with the courtesy name Zhaolie; the deceased brother Chen Xiuxian was made the Marquis of Wukang County, with the title of Zhongzhuang; and Chen Baxian's stepwife Zhang Yao'er of Great Wall County was also named Lady Yixingguo.
Subsequently, Emperor Liang posthumously presented Chen Baxian's grandfather Chen Daoju as Shizhong (侍中), Tai Changqing (太常卿), and the Duke of Yixing Commandery (義興郡公), with the title of Xiaoxiao (孝孝); he posthumously bestowed Chen Baxian's grandmother Xu Shi (許氏) as the Jun of Jiaxing County, Wu County, with the posthumous title of Jingjing; and chen Baxian's mother Zhang Shi (Dong Shi) as Lady Yixingguo(匯興国夫人).
In August of that year, Chen Baxian added Huang Yu, led the Taifu, and the sword walked to the temple, entered the dynasty without tendency, praised and worshiped the nameless, gave Yu Bao, and advocated; in September, for xiangguo, the general hundred, sealed the ten counties as Chen Gong, prepared the gift of nine tin, and placed Chen Guo Baisi.
In October, Chen Baxian became the King of Chen, added ten counties, built the Tianzi Banner, and established the Five Temples of the Princes of Chen Guo according to the old practice.
Although the history books do not clearly record who chen Baxian's five temple masters were, according to the practice of the Song, Qi, and Liang dynasties, most of them were Chen Wenzan, the Duke of Gonggong of Emperor Yixing, Chen Daoju, the Duke of Emperor Yixing, Chen Meng, the Emperor's great-grandfather Ancheng Fu, Chen Yong, the Emperor Gaozu, and Chen Baxian's original wife Qian.
Two days later, on Xin Wei day, Emperor Liang ascended the throne of Chen, and three days later, in October Yihai, Chen Baxian, the emperor, was located in the southern suburbs, the founding number Chen, Chai Liao told the heavens, pardoned the world, and changed the yuan Yongding.
On the seventh day of his reign, Chen Baxian posthumously honored Emperor Kao Chen Wenzan as Emperor Jing, with the temple name Taizu and Imperial Concubine Lady Dong (i.e., The Zhang clan of the previous text, Emperor Wu of Chen's Benji records that emperor Concubine, who was formerly Zhang Hou Dong) as Empress An.
At the same time, Chen Baxian also posthumously honored his former wife Qian Shi as Empress Zhao, and posthumously named chen Ke, the eldest son who died early, as the Prince of Xiaohuai, before appointing his wife Zhang Yao'er as empress.
Qian Shi was the daughter of Qian Zhongfang, the same county as Chen Baxian, and probably died before Chen Baxian had a trace, and Chen Baxian remarried Zhang Yao'er.
Another day later, Chen Baxian honored his father Emperor Jing Emperor Chen Wenzan's mausoleum as Ruiling, his grandfather Chen Daoju's mausoleum as Shouling, and his wife Empress Zhao's mausoleum as Jialing. After another five days, Chen Ba first enshrined his father and ancestors into the Chen Dynasty Temple.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="158" >02, different perceptions of Chen Qimiao</h1>
Regarding the Seven Temples of the Chen Dynasty, the Book of Sui, Volume Seven Zhi II, is a sentence with it, "Chen Yiliang System, Seven Temples like a Ceremony", which is simple enough that the lord of the Seven Temples temple is who is stingy in the record.
Mr. Liang Mancang also mentioned in the "Discussion on the Imperial Temple System of the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the Wei and Jin Dynasties":
"The above-mentioned Song Qi Liang Sect Temples are all seven temples and seven generations... In particular, entering the temple with the wife's divine throne, taking the wife, Qi Also means that the wife is in line with herself, and she cannot enter the temple in the world, so that the wife can occupy a position in the temple on behalf of herself.
The Seven Temples erected by Emperor Chen Wu are unknown, but their family lineage in this era is clearly recorded, and it is not a problem to honor the ancestors of the Seventh Dynasty upwards, and its system should be no different from that of Song Qiliang. ”
Mr. Guo Shanbing is also vague in his "Research on the Ritual System of Ancient Chinese Emperors and Temples":
"According to a number of scattered records, the Temple System of Emperor Chen combined the Song, Qi, and Liang systems, ... The seven temples here may include the Zongmiao Temple built for Chen Baxian's deceased spouse at this time, who was posthumously honored as Empress Zhao's Qian clan. ”
"Emperor Wu of Liang's reform of the Song and Qi temple systems was to exclude the female temples that had previously been included in the emperor's seven temple system, and the Chen Seven Temples may also include the hou temples established."
And the Chen Dynasty temple system related information, monkey grid on the Internet can see (pickpocket) to, only these three places, according to the "Book of Sui" record, the Chen Dynasty temple system is a reference to the Liang system, that is, what the Liang Tai Temple is like, what the Chen Tai Temple is like;
According to Mr. Liang's meaning, there is no difference between chen taimiao and the three dynasties of Song Qiliang, and both let their wives rank as the gods of the taimiao temple, so empress Qian of Zhao is naturally also the master of the taimiao temple who counts the world. According to Mr. Guo's meaning, the seven temples of Chen Taimiao may include the Zhao Empress Qian.
On this point, Mr. Guo's point of view can be regarded as the same as Mr. Liang's point of view, that is, they all believe that Qian Shi is the temple master and god in Chen Tai Temple.
That is to say, the Chen Tai Temple is not vain Taizu's position, and the seven temple masters are: Chen Ding, a lieutenant of the Sixth Ancestral Infantry School, Chen Gao, a fifth ancestral horseman, Chen Yong, an Emperor Gaozu, a Prince of Huai'an Province, Chen Meng, a great-great-grandfather of Ancheng Province, Chen Daoju, the Duke of Emperor Yixing, Chen Daoju, emperor of Emperor Taizujing, and Qian Shi, empress dowager.
The view of the monkey ge is the opposite of the two gentlemen, that is, although empress Qian of Zhao is ranked in the Zongmiao Temple, she is not the main lord of the Taimiao Temple, because the Book of Sui clearly records that Chen Suiliang is in charge.
In the previous article "Xiao Liang Temple System", Monkey Ge analyzed that the Liang Tai Temple's virtual Taizu position and the revocation of Xi Hui's temple master qualifications are more likely than the position of not vain Taizu and Xi Hui is still one of the seven temple masters.
Therefore, if Chen Ba first refers to liang zhi, it means that he will assume the position of Taizu and revoke the qualification of his wife Empress Zhao Qian to be the lord of the temple. At this time, the pattern of Chen Taimiao temple should be:
Chen Ding, a lieutenant of the Sixth Ancestral Infantry School, Chen Gao, a squire of the Fifth Ancestral Dispersal Horseman, Chen Yong, an Emperor Gaozu, Chen Yong, a great-great-grandfather of The Emperor, Chen Meng, a prince of The Imperial Ancestor Yixing, and Chen Daoju, the Emperor of Taizujing.
Of course, whether it is the speculation of the two gentlemen or the speculation of Monkey Ge, it is only their own speculation, and there is no support from the historical materials, so what the pattern of the Chen Dynasty Taimiao Temple is is unknown.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="166" >03, speculation on Empress Xiao transparent Zhao</h1>
Although the history books do not record, it is certain that when Empress Zhao established the Five Temples of the Princes, Empress Qian entered the Zongmiao Temple and was ranked as the lord of the temple, because the Book of Sui records that Chen Suiliang made it, and Xiao Yan once made his wife Xi Hui one of the five temple masters of the princes.
After Chen Ba first became emperor, Xiao Transparent Qian was promoted to the Temple of Qi, but at this time, like Xi Hui, she was disqualified as a temple master, and was only a non-worldly companion in the Chen Tai Temple. Monkey Ge's determination of Qian's presence at the Taimiao Temple is based on three grounds:
First, Chen Baxian did not set up another temple for the Qian clan;
Before the Chen Dynasty, it is not mentioned that the Wei and Jin Emperors established temples for his wife, old wife, and daughter-in-law, and there was a phenomenon of other temples in the three generations of Song, Qi, and Liang.
After Emperor Wen of Song ascended the throne, he posthumously honored his birth mother Hu Jieyu as Empress Dowager Zhang, and built a temple for her in Jingshi and lied to the Seven Temples; after Emperor Liu Yu of Song Ming ascended the throne, his biological mother Shen Jieyu became Empress Xuanhuang and the divine lord Empress Dowager Zhangzhang; And after her death, the divine lord Liu Jun's biological mother, Empress Dowager Zhao, was also promoted to the temple of Empress Dowager Zhang.
After the Qi Ming Emperor Xiao Luan ascended the throne, he posthumously honored his biological father Xiao Daosheng as Emperor Jing, and his mother Jiang Shi as Empress Yi, and built a new temple for their husband and wife in the west of Yudao.
Emperor Xiao Yan of Liangwu also built a small temple for his concubine's grandmother; later, after the death of Ding Gui, the biological mother of Prince Xiao Tong of Zhaoming, the god lord ascended to a small temple under the god lord of the wife; after Emperor Xiao Of Liang ascended the throne, he posthumously honored his birth mother Ruan Lingying as Empress Wenxuan, and the god lord also ascended to the small temple.
Thus it can be seen that the three generations of Song, Qi, and Liang all built other temples outside the Taimiao system to house the empresses who could not enter the Taimiao. However, before Chen Xuan ascended the throne, there was no other temple, which meant that Chen Baxian enshrined his original wife, Empress Qian of Zhao, into the Taimiao Temple.
If you think this article is too thin, look at the next one.
Second, the Qian clan accompanied the northern suburbs at the suburban ceremony;
Chinese pay attention to sacrifice, and the feudal emperors not only had to sacrifice the ancestors in the zongmiao temple, but also to sacrifice the heavens and the earth in the suburbs, that is, the so-called southern suburbs to sacrifice the heavens and the northern suburbs.
When sacrificing heaven and earth, it is necessary to use ancestors to sacrifice, let the old ancestors eat cold meat together, there are so many ancestors, let who follow the light? Nature is an ancestor with great merit.
The Han Dynasty was based on Taizu Liu Bang and the heavens and the earth, and when Wang Mang was in power, he quoted the "Zhou Li" to use the xianfei with the northern suburbs, and only then began to use the high empress Lü Yan to match the northern suburbs; Han Guangwu Zhongxing, who denied Wang Mang all kinds of negations, Xiu'er also thought that Lü Zu's grandmother was too fierce and not virtuous enough, so she disqualified her from matching the northern suburbs with land, and let Empress Bo, the mother of Emperor Wen, replace her.
Cao Wei and Sima Jin were both matched with the southern suburbs of Emperor Taizu (Shizu) and the northern suburbs of Empress Taizu (Shizu), such as Cao Cao, Bian Shi, Sima Yi, and Zhang Chunhua.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, Liu Yu was paired with the southern suburbs, and his wife Empress Wujing Zang Ai was paired with the northern suburbs; then to Xiao Qi, with Xiao Daocheng with the southern suburbs, and his wife Empress Gaozhao Liu Zhirong was paired with the northern suburbs, which were obviously imitated by Wei Jin.
Xiao Yan of the Liang Dynasty, he used Emperor Taizu Wendi with the southern suburbs, but used his own wife Empress Xi Hui with the northern suburbs; Chen Suiliang, Chen Baxian also used the Emperor Taizu Jing Emperor with the southern suburbs, so that his wife Empress Zhao Qianshi was equipped with the northern suburbs, and all specifications were referred to the Liang system.
Here, I would also like to criticize Wei Mou, the cultivator of the Book of Sui, who worked too carelessly, not only confusing Xiao Yan's old wife with his wife, but also writing "Empress Dowager De" as "Empress De", and delaying posterity (see Xiao Liang Temple System).
He also wrote Chen Baxian's father, Emperor Jing, as "Emperor De" and Chen Baxian's wife, Empress Zhao, Qian Shi as "Imperial Concubine", which was simply a mess. Xiao Chen's father and mother were obviously Emperor Jing and Empress An, and his wife was Empress Zhao.
Aged, also in the inter-age. On the first day of the month, with a special cow, the heavens and the earth are in the north and south of the two suburbs. In the first year of Yongding, Emperor Wu was zen, repairing the southern suburbs, the round altar was two feet and five inches high, the upper guang was ten zhang, and the firewood was burned to the heavens. Next year, on the first month of The Xin, there is something in the southern suburbs, with the Emperor Kaude Emperor, in addition to the Twelve Seats, plus the five emperors, the rest of the old Liang. The northern suburbs are altars, five feet high and eight feet wide, with the emperor's concubine Zhaohou, from the ancestral also quasi-Liang old. and Emperor Wen Tianjiazhong, the southern suburbs were changed to Gao Zu, and the northern suburbs were matched with Emperor De. The deposed Emperor Guangdazhong was also paired with the northern suburbs of Zhaohou. (Book of Sui, vol. 6, 1)
In the winter of the first year of Yongding, in the winter of The First Month of The First Month of Yongding, Gaozu was the Emperor in the southern suburbs... Xin Wei (辛巳), posthumously honored emperor Kao Yue Jing Emperor, temple name Taizu, and empress dowager Dong Tai'an. Posthumously honored his former wife Qian shi as Empress Zhao, and Shizi Ke as the Prince of Xiaohuai. Lady Zhang was made empress. 癸未, Zunjing Emperor Mausoleum Rui Ling, Empress Zhao Mausoleum Jia Ling, Yi Liang Chu Yuan Mausoleum Story. (Chen Shu Gao Zu Ben Ji Xia, vol. 2)
It was Wei Mou's clerical errors that made those who copied the homework behind them also follow the mistakes, such as the "Wu Xing Tong Ji", "TongDian", "Literature Tongkao", etc., all of which regarded Empress Zhao Qian as Chen Ba's wife.
Although the Song Dynasty tan key proposed corrections to this when compiling the Jiatai Wu Xingzhi, his works were not as famous as the "Book of Sui", and later generations still copied it by mistake according to the pen, such as the "Five Rites Tongkao".
After Chen Baxian's death, Chen Xuan took the throne, and it was changed to the southern suburbs with Chen Baxian and the northern suburbs with his grandfather Chen Wenzan; however, during the reign of the deposed emperor Chen Bozong, he changed to Empress Zhao with the northern suburbs.
Just think, how could Empress Zhao, who could enjoy the northern suburbs, not be in the Taimiao Temple? Even if she wasn't in the Taimiao Temple, how could she not even mix with other temples? That wouldn't match the resources she enjoyed!
Besides, Zang Aiqin, Liu Zhirong, and Xi Hui, who were in the northern suburbs, were all staying in the Taimiao Temple, and how could the Qian clan, who also matched the northern suburbs, not be in the Taimiao Temple?
Third, empresses who were wives before The Qian clan were all matered with the emperor's husband.
Before the Tang Dynasty, the Taimiao temple was worthy of the majority to follow the principle of one emperor and one queen, but there were also a few two queens, taking the Jin Dynasty as an example, the original wuyuan yang empress of sima yan of the Jin Dynasty, and the successor Empress Wu mourned Empress Yang, and the gods were all promoted to the Taimiao temple to enjoy the wu emperor.
The Xiaomu Emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, Liu Qiao, his original consort Empress Xiaomu Zhao and Empress Xiaoyi Xiao of the stepmother, the god lord also ascended to the Temple of Qi taimiao to enjoy Liu Qiao (this no historical material is Monkey Ge's own speculation).
Because they are all righteous wives, although there is a principle of one emperor and one queen, it is impossible to let the empress with a title live in another room, which is too degrading, and only when the god enters the temple to eat his husband, can it be consistent with the "righteous code", which is acceptable in the etiquette.
On the contrary, he did not take a proper wife before his death, such as Empress Dowager Jianwen Xuan Zheng Achun, Empress Xiaowuwen Li Lingrong, Empress Dowager Chen Guinu of Ande, as well as Empress Zhang of the Song Dynasty, Empress Dowager Zhao, Empress Dowager Lu, Empress Xuan, and so on.
Although their sons were all honored with great treasures, it did not change the fact that they were concubines, so their gods were not qualified to ascend to the temple to enjoy their husbands, and could only set up a temple to worship.
Referring to the old precedent of the previous dynasty, Monkey Ge can definitely conclude that the Xiao Transparent Zhao Empress Qian was first enshrined in the Taimiao Temple by her husband Chen Baxian and received the treatment that he deserved, and as for Chen Baxian's stepwife Zhang Yao'er, after his death, he was also promoted to the Taimiao Temple, and the first emperor was matched with the second queen.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="167" >04, speculating that Chen Baxian let his father be Taizu</h1>
Logically speaking, Chen Baxian was the founding ancestor of the Chen Dynasty, and he had the qualifications of being both first ordained and being the absolute Taizu of the Chen Dynasty, but Chen Baxian followed Xiao Yan's example and gave Taizu's temple title to his father who had no merit.
Liang Taizu Xiao Shunzhi brought his son Xiao Yanguan the status of the second generation, he was also mixed with the title of general in the Qi Dynasty, exaggerated a little, saying that he was the descendant of the Liang Dynasty, and he was barely strong, but Chen Wenzan As for the Chen Dynasty, there was really no size merit, and even the son did not have enough children, how could he mix with the title of Taizu?
In fact, this reason is also very simple, Chen Baxian's ideas are more similar to Xiao Yan's, all because of his own lack of prosperity.
Although it is indecent to crown the Taizu Temple on the head of his father who has no merit, in order to determine the patriarchy and the monarchy, Chen Baxian still determined the position of Taizu early in the Zongmiao Temple, taking the old father as the ancestor of the dynasty, indicating that the power of the dynasty originated from his father.
In this way, with the old father as the starting point of the legal system, his half-fathers, brothers, and nephews can all split the earth and be crowned kings, and will they not be able to cultivate a reliable force to defend the imperial power? Of course, it can also stimulate their ambitions to usurp the throne!
Compared with Xiao Yan, Chen Baxian's shortcomings were more obvious, although Xiao Yan gave birth to a son late, he had nine brothers, a bunch of nephews, and later gave birth to eight sons; Chen Baxian only had two brothers and three nephews, he himself gave birth to six sons but died five early, and the remaining one miaomiao was still detained in the enemy country.
If Chen Baxian did not lift up his father, but left Taizu to himself, it meant that his sons and nephews outside of this branch, such as the Chen Xuan brothers, were excluded from the core circle of imperial power, and then the royal family of the Chen Dynasty was too thin.
In order to build the patriarchal order of the Chen Dynasty, Chen Baxian could only imitate Xiao Yan, enshrine his father as a taizu, improve the status of his nephews, expand the scope of the clan, and establish the clan of the Chen Dynasty.
Some people may wonder, then why does Chen Baxian no longer go back to his grandfather and great-grandfather?
That must not be enough, you have more respect, do not you also improve the status of your grandfather and great-grandfather's descendants? For the emperor, from brother to brother and from brother again, where are brothers more trustworthy? Doesn't raising their status give them the right to make trouble?
Therefore, in October of the first year of Yongding (557), Chen Baxian posthumously awarded his brother Chen Daotan the title of King of Sixing County, and his younger brother Chen Xiuxian the King of Nankang County. In November, his nephew Chen Xuan (蒨蒨) was made the King of Linchuan Commandery (林川郡王), and his nephew Chen Yan (顼顼), who had fallen into Northern Zhou, attacked The King of Shixing, while Chen Baxian did not know that this nephew had been killed by the Qi people.
In August of the second year of Yongding (558), he posthumously honored the crown prince Chen Li as the Prince of Yuzhangxian, Chen Quan as the King of Changshasi, and the eldest daughter as Princess Yongshiyi.
The above is the main male member of the Chen Dynasty royal family, leaving aside the early death, in addition to Chen Baxian, there are also Chen Xuan, Chen Huan brothers, and the unfortunate sixth prince Chen Chang who was detained in Northern Zhou, not a slap was enough.
It is precisely because the Chen Dynasty Sect Is too thin and has no merit, Chen Wenzan, can become the Taizu of the Chen Dynasty, which is a piece of his son Chen Baxian's painstaking heart! Chen Baxian sighed: Who told my son to give birth to less?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="168" >05, Chen Taimiao and Guomiao in the Chen Xuan era</h1>
In the third year of Yongding (559), on the afternoon of June, Chen Baxian died at the age of 57 in the XuanXuan Palace, at this time, his only son was still far away in Northern Zhou, and seeing that there was no successor, Chen Xuan, as the emperor's nephew, quickly returned to the dynasty, with the support of Hou Andu and other important ministers, and ascended the throne.
Although Empress Zhang Yao'er was reluctant to let Chen Xuan take the throne in her heart, but her son was trapped in Northern Zhou and could not fly back, and Hou Andu pressed the sword to the temple, forcing her to order Chen Xuan, the king of Linchuan, who had "meritorious service in the world", to take the throne, and the helpless Zhang Yao'er could only obey, and the edict said that Chen Xuan, who "built a special merit to Muye, and put prosperity in Ji Li" Chen Xuan "should serve the Emperor Dazong, and the heir to the treasure record".
After repeated modesty, Chen Xuan, who was invited by the group of courtiers, took the throne as emperor in the front hall of Taiji; in July, he honored empress dowager as empress dowager; in August, he caught up with Chen Baxian as Emperor Gaozuwu and buried Wan'an Mausoleum.
As Chen Ba entered the temple first, Chen Ding, who was the seventh ancestor of Chen Xuan, should be relocated, and the pattern of Chen TaiMiao at this time was as follows: Chen Gao, the sixth ancestor of the ancestral scattered horse attendant Chen Gao, the fifth ancestor of The Huaian Fu Jun Chen Yong, the emperor Gao Zu AnCheng Fu Jun Chen Meng, the emperor's great-grandfather Yixing Xiaogong Chen Daoju, the emperor Taizu Jing Emperor Chen Wenzan, and the emperor Gao Zuwu Emperor Chen Baxian.
At this time, Chen Xuan was not yet forty years old, he had a total of thirteen sons, even if two died early, there were eleven, from his standpoint, he entered the Great Sect, that is, Chen Baxian's heir, not only inherited the monarchy of the Chen Dynasty, but also inherited the patriarch of the Chen Dynasty, but he did not seem to be satisfied, and the chicken thief wanted to hold the orthodox Emperor of the branch in his hands.
In October of the third year of Yongding (559), Chen Xuan, with his brother Chen Hao still stranded in Northern Zhou, resulting in the lack of food and the steaming of the Sixing Guomiao Temple, so he enfeoffed The Prince of Sixing as the King of Ancheng, and the second prince Chen Bomao as the King of Sixing, in order to honor his biological father, King Sixing Zhaolie.
Chen Xuan's move may also be quite precautionary in order to avoid the situation of lifting up his biological father in the future and incidentally improving the status of his younger brother Chen Huan.
Although Chen Xuan became emperor, the existence of Chen Chang, as the only prince of the former emperor, still made Chen Xuan like a fish in the throat, and as a rival to the family, Northern Zhou naturally did not miss the opportunity to let the Chen brothers kill each other, so he sent Chen Chang back to China.
Chen Chang was also unlucky, and his way back was blocked by Wang Lin, a separatist force occupying the middle stream of the Yangtze River, and could only live in Anlu, and after Wang Lin's forces were destroyed by the Chen Dynasty, Chen Chang set out from Anlu in February of the first year of Tianjia (560).
However, due to Chen Xuan's removal of Wang Lin, not only enhanced the authority of the Chen Dynasty, but also consolidated Chen Xuan's control over the Chen Dynasty and gained the hearts of the Chen Dynasty's Hao clan, chen Chang, the prince of Guangzhan, did not have any capital and cousins at all.
Just when Chen Xuan pretended to say to Hou An, "The prince is coming, don't ask for a single one, my old man", Hou Andu invited himself to welcome Chen Chang's return to the dynasty.
At this time, the hundred officials headed by Xiao Yuanyan, the king of Baling, wrote to chen Xuan to ask chen xuan not to be affectionate, to forget Wang Ye's grand plan, to have the courage to take on a big responsibility, and to make Chen Chang, the child of Mao, the king of Hengyang County, and eat five thousand households.
The king of Chen Dynasty was mostly two thousand households, when Chen Xuan was the king of Linchuan County, it was two thousand households, and now Chen Chang has five thousand households, and he has also given soap wheels, trumpets, ban swords, etc., which can be described as extraordinary respect, for the courtiers' Junjie, Chen Xuan, who is in a happy mood, pushes the boat along the water.
Just in March, Chen Chang, who was greeted by Hou Andu, did not return to the capital in the end, and Comrade Hou Andu entered the Duke of Qingyuan County with merit, eating four thousand households, and from then on, the prestige was so heavy that the group of ministers was incapable of his right.
In order to express his grief at the loss of his brother, Chen Xuan passed on the seventh prince Chen Boxin to Chen Chang and asked him to worship Hengyang as a prince. In June, Chen Xuan changed the title of Empress Dowager Jing'an to Empress Jingwen, and posthumously honored her biological mother, Princess Shixing Zhaolie, as a filial concubine.
In December of the second year of Tianjia (561), Chen Xuan became the capital of the Temple of Chen Dao, the King of Sixing, and called it the East Temple. In the fourth year (563), the god of the East Temple was moved to the Qianliang Small Temple, and renamed it the National Temple, and the sacrifice was performed with the gift of the Son of Heaven.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="170" >06, the pattern of Chen Taimiao in the middle and late period</h1>
In the first month of the third year of Tianjia (562), Chen Xuan's southern suburbs were sacrificed to heaven, with Hu Gong matching the heavens, Hu Gong was the ancestor of the Chen surname, and it was also in line with etiquette to match the heavens with the ancestors, but it was inevitable that there was a suspicion of stepping on the feet of the high ancestor Chen Baxian.
What is particularly curious is that since Chen Xuan replaced Gaozu Chen Ba with the ancestor Hu Gong to go to the heavens first, I don't know whether in the northern suburbs ten days later, he will match the land with Taizu Chen Wenzan or with Gaozu Chen Ba? However, due to the lack of historical data, it is no longer known.
In March of that year (562), Chen Huan, the emperor's brother Ancheng The Prince of Ancheng, who was stranded in Northern Zhou, finally returned to China, and faced with a bunch of young sons who did not have the ability to participate in politics, Chen Xuan had to reuse his younger brother and give Chen Yu the title of Zhongshu Zhong, Zhongshu Supervisor, and Zhongwei General.
Because the imperial power of the Chen Dynasty was too thin, Chen Hao, who had returned to China, was highly valued by his brother and quickly promoted, and in June he was appointed as the general of the Hussars and the Assassin of Yangzhou, and in April of the fourth year (563), he added the three divisions of The Kaifu Yi Tongsan division, with the respect of the imperial brother, and the power fell to the opposition.
Later, he was impeached by Xu Ling, and Tianjia was relieved of serving as a zhongshu supervisor in April of the sixth year (565) and became Sikong, and only a year later, in March of the first year of Tiankang (566), with Chen Xuan's serious illness, Chen Yu was again appointed as Shang Shu Ling, with greater power and status than before.
In April of the first year of Tiankang (566), Chen Xuan, who had been blessed with the emperor's grandson for only eighteen days, died at the age of 45 at the youjue Hall, and the crown prince Chen Bozong took the throne.
Chen Bozong, who was only 16 years old, took the throne in the Taiji Qiandian on the same day, and in May, Empress Dowager Zhang Yao'er was made empress dowager, and Empress Shen Miaorong was made empress dowager, with the general of the Hussars, Sikong, yangzhou assassins, Shangshu Ling, and Chen Huan the Prince of Ancheng as the grand generals of the Hussars, situs, Lu Shangshushi, and governors of various Chinese and foreign militaries. Chen Huan became the de facto supreme power of the Chen Dynasty.
In June, Chen Xuan was posthumously honored as Emperor Shizuwen, buried in the Yongning Mausoleum, and the sacred plaque was promoted to the Taimiao Temple. With the entry of Chen Xuan into the temple, Chen Gao, as the seventh ancestor of Chen Bozong, should be demolished, and the pattern of Chen Taimiao at this time is:
Emperor Gaozu Yixing Xiaogong Chen Daoju, Emperor Gaozu Taizujing Emperor Chen Wenzan, Emperor Gaozu Gaozu Wu Emperor Chen Baxian, Emperor Kao Shizu Wenwen Emperor Chen Xuan.
Chen Bozong's mother and son failed in a few moves under the hands of the high-powered uncle Chen Hao, and in the first month of the second year of Guangda (568), Chen Bozong entered the position of Taifu, Ling Situ, Jia Shu Li, and sword shoes to the temple.
In November, Empress Dowager Zhang, gathered his courtiers, deposed Chen Bozong as the king of Linhai County, returned him to the mansion, and honored Chen Bozong the Prince of Ancheng as emperor, and also denounced Chen Bozong's maternal brother Chen Bomao the Prince of Sixing as the Marquis of Wenma, and left the annex, where he was robbed and killed on the way.
In the first year of Taijian (569), on the first day of the first month of the first month, Chen Yan took the throne in the front hall of Taiji, the empress dowager was made empress dowager, Liu Jingyan, the princess of Li'ancheng, was made empress, Chen Shubao, the son of Prince Ancheng, was made crown prince, and Chen Shuling, the prince of Shixing, was enshrined as king of Zhaolie.
Although Chen Hao took the throne, the pattern of Chen Taimiao temple would not change in a high probability, there was no phenomenon of relocation and destruction, and it was still the pattern of Chen Bozong's period.
In March of the second year of Taijian (570), Empress Dowager Zhang died in the Purple Pole Hall at the age of 65. Immediately after the death of April, the deposed emperor Chen Bozong of Linhai was deposed, and Peng Yin, who was posthumously honored as Empress Xuan, was buried in the Tomb of Gaozu Wan'an, and the god lord ascended to the Temple of Taimiao, and was given Chen Baxian together with Empress Zhao Qian.
In the fourteenth year of Taijian (582), on the first month of Jiayin, Chen Huan died at the Xuanfu Hall at the age of 53, and the crown prince Chen Shubao, who was the emperor, was the lord of Chen Hou.
In February, Chen Yan was posthumously honored as Emperor Xiaoxuan of Gaozong, buried in the Tomb of Xianning, and the sacred tablet was promoted to the Taimiao Temple. With the ascension of Chen Hao, the pattern of Chen Taimiao temple may or may not change, or because of the lack of historical materials, posterity cannot know the pattern of Chen Taimiao in the Chen Shubao period.
However, in the monkey style, there are no more than two results: if according to the brothers zhaomu, Chen Yan and Chen Xuan are brothers, in the same room, under Chen Xuan, Chen Yong's divine tablets will not be destroyed.
The pattern is: Chen Yong of Huai'an Province, Chen Meng of Ancheng Province, Chen Daoju of Yixing Xiaogong, Chen Wenzan of Taizujing, Chen Baxian of Emperor Gaozuwu, Chen Xuan of Emperor Shizuwen, and Chen Yan of Emperor Xiaoxuan of Gaozong.
If chen yong is removed and destroyed according to the principle of brotherly disobedience and honor, Chen Yong will be removed and destroyed, and Chen Yong's divine position will be promoted from Sanmu to Sanzhao in turn, and Chen Yong will be promoted to Sanmu.
The pattern was: Chen Meng, the Prince of Ancheng Province, Chen Daoju, the Duke of Yixing, Chen Wenzan, the Emperor of Taizujing, Chen Baxian, the Emperor of Gaozuwu, Chen Xuan, the Emperor of Shizuwen, and Chen Yan, the Emperor xiaoxuan of Emperor Gaozong.
In the first month of the third year of Zhenming (589), Sui destroyed Chen, and Chen Shubao, who did not like to engage in ritual music, no longer had to consider the issue of the ritual system of the zongmiao temple.

To tell the truth, compared with Xiao Daocheng and Xiao Yanye, Chen Baxian was really a little aggrieved when he was Gao Zu, and in the great chaos of the world at the end of Liang, he leveled Hou Jing, pacified the forces in various places, resisted Northern Qi, resisted foreign insults, and protected the cultural heritage of the Han people.
Therefore, Chen Baxian was evaluated by Yao Cha as "Han Gao and Wei Wuzhiya", Wei Zheng as "enough to have no shame and be prepared", Gui Youguang as "the emperors of Jiangzuo, the most virtuous", and Wang Fuzhi as "Chen Gao is not loyal to Xiao, but the remnants of China... Then the work is also great! Lü Simian commented that "no one has ever won the country, and there is no one who is as righteous as Emperor Chen Wu."
These evaluations are actually affirmations of Chen Baxian's "survival and extinction skills", although his martial arts are slightly inferior to Liu Yu's, but the impact of his martial arts is far above Liu Yu.
As far as Xiao Daocheng can be a Taizu like that, Chen Baxian wants to be a high ancestor like Wenqing Xiaoyan, which is still Chen Baxian's voluntary demotion, how can he not let people be wronged for him?
No way! In a chaotic world, the clan strength is weak, Chen Baxian can only do this, of course, he also wants to leave the throne to his son, so after taking the throne, he sent envoys to communicate with Northern Zhou many times.
In order to seek the greatest benefit, the Northern Zhou Dynasty did not repatriate Chen Chang until Chen Baxian's death and Chen Xuan took the throne, hoping to cause infighting in the Chen Dynasty.
If Chen Baxian did not become Taizu and Gao Zu was slightly aggrieved, Chen Xuan's ancestor was more in line with human design.
When Chen Xuan took the throne, the situation he had to face was also very severe, he pacified Wang Lin, eliminated the local separatist forces, resisted the invasion of Northern Qi and Northern Zhou, recovered a large area of land, and also created conditions for the economic recovery of Jiangnan and laid the foundation for the Chen Dynasty to enter its prosperity.
Therefore, Monkey Ge felt that Chen Xuan's ancestors were enough to throw Song Shizu Liu Yu and Liang Shizu Xiao Xuan out of a few streets, and if Chen Xuan could live for a few more years, Chen Dynasty would definitely not decline so quickly.
The most advantageous person was Chen Hao, standing on the shoulders of his brother, reigning for another fourteen years, and making Chen Chao look like that bear, which showed that his ability was far less than that of his brother. Chen Yan was still narrow-minded and short-sighted, but all the old courtiers that his brother reused, whether people had the ability or not, was a word, killing.
The Battle of Huainan inflated him, and then he did not listen to dissuasion, which eventually led to the defeat of Lü Liang, which cost money and grain, and also demoralized, and chen jun never saw victory after that.
For example, Wei Zheng's evaluation of him, "Virtue does not catch wen, wisdom is not as good as martial arts, although he gains and loses himself, there is no strategy to resist the enemy", giving him the temple number of Emperor Gaozong, it is really Chen Shubao who put gold on his father's face, and he is too much of a cross of Gaozong.
If the Chen Dynasty can be passed down for one or two hundred years, the throne of the ancestor of Chen Taimiao is naturally none other than Taizu Chen Wenzan, and the Gaozu Chen Baxian and the ancestral ancestor Chen Xuan are truly immortal, as for the unworthy Gaozong Chen, hehe, only deserves to be relocated.
That's it.
