"He is not weak in the crown, he is eight feet two inches long, his posture is majestic, and he has a sun angle and a heavy moon on his forehead." Bo Guan Qun book, sexual prudence, multi-talent. ”
——Fang Xuanling et al. "Book of Jin"
Murong De (336 – 18 October 405)
Emperor Murong De of the Southern Yan Dynasty, courtesy name Xuanming, was a native of Changli Thorn City (present-day Yi County, Liaoning Province), and a member of the Xianbei clan. During the Sixteen Kingdoms period, he was the founding emperor of Southern Yan and the younger son of Murong Hao, the former Emperor of Yan civilization.
Murong De was less than twenty years old, and he had already shown the appearance of an emperor, with a high temperament and a cautious disposition, a wide range of books, versatility, and an indescribable value.
In 397, when the Later Yan monarch Murong Bao defeated Northern Wei at the Battle of Hepi, Later Yan was cut off into northern and southern parts.
Murong De, because the Huimin Emperor Murong Bao was exiled during the Battle of Hepi, was unable to return to China to preside over the overall situation. The so-called kingdom could not be left without a monarch for a day, and after his nephews Murong Lin and Murong He persuaded Murong De to move south, in order to establish a state and become emperor.
In the second year of Long'an (398), he led 40,000 households and 27,000 cars from Yecheng to prepare to move to The Slide. He called himself the King of Yan, called the first year, and established the Southern Yan.
One country, two emperors
Just as Murong De was enjoying the spring breeze, the Later Yan monarch Murong Bao fled back to Liyang. (This is embarrassing, Murong De just established Southern Yan.) The monarch of Later Yan returned to the country safely, which created a territory of two emperors. It's just that after Murong Bao returned, the world has changed, and Murong De has established Southern Yan! ）
When Murong Bao arrived in Liyang, he sent Zhonghuangmen to order Zhao Si to summon Murong Zhong to escort him back to China. However, Murong Zhong was a hardcore supporter of Murong De's claim to the throne, and it was more embarrassing at this time.
In order to protect his own interests, he could only go all the way to the black and put Zhao Sixian in prison. Sending someone to report this to Murong De, Murong De was also anxious and uneasy in his heart, feeling that he had done something wrong. While his nephew was on the run, he ascended the throne as king.
So he said to the minister: "I had no intention of taking the throne, but the monarch was in exile, and I had no choice but to ascend the throne for the sake of the country's grand plan." Now that the Lord has returned, I want to take the burden of Jing to go out of the city to welcome the monarch back to the dynasty, and I will resign all my duties and return to the mountains and forests. ”
(Murong De's move is somewhat obvious, everyone can see how it can be sincere, it is nothing more than throwing the words out and seeing what the ministers think!) ）
Zhang Huajin, a waiter at the Yellow Gate, said, "If the autumn of the chaotic world is not the lord of the world, how can Murong Bao be based on the world, Murong Bao is not very talented. How can the king be worthy of the people of the world if the benevolence of a woman is worthy of the people of the world? ”
Murong De hesitated at this time, and Mu Yuhu stepped forward to request that he lead the assassination squad to destroy Murong Bao to avoid any trouble.
But Murong Bao was not stupid, and when he learned that Murong De had inherited the throne as king of Yan, he knew that he was less fierce than running away overnight!
After Mu Yuhu and Zhao Si went, they pounced, and had no choice but to escort them back. Murong De felt that Zhao Si had talent and wanted to use his talent.

Murong De killed Zhao Si in anger
Cai Dongfan: "There is this righteous soldier among the eunuchs, and it is also rare" once commented on Zhao Si.
Although Zhao Si was a eunuch, he was extremely loyal to Murong Bao and had great righteousness. Next, we can see from his dialogue with Murong De that this person's loyalty and fierceness!
One day Murong De heard that Zhao Si was practicing his palm and summoned him to see him, wanting to use it for himself.
Murong De said to Zhao Si, "I heard that you are familiar with the various systems in the palace, and I want you to come to me to take care of the affairs of the palace."
Zhao Si said indignantly, "Dogs and horses and other beasts know to be attached to their masters, and although I am an eunuch, I also know the word loyalty." ”
Murong Dezheng said, "What is the difference between being an official in my place and Murong Bao?" ”
At this time, Zhao Si said something impassioned!
Zhao Si also said angrily: "Zhou Room moved east, Jin Zheng is Yi, His Majesty is his uncle, he is in the position of a superior duke, he cannot advocate the leadership of the Qun courtiers, Kuang Fu Imperial Chamber, but it is anti-schadenfreude, want to emulate the story of King Lun of Jin Zhao!" Although Zhao Si could not follow Bao Xu's example and begged for help, he still wanted to be like Gong Sheng when Wang Mang was there, and he didn't care to steal his life, and he couldn't return to it, so why should he die! ”。
Murong De: "Push it out in anger and kill him"!
Conclusion: When the monarch Murong Bao fled, all his subjects supported Murong De, the king of Yan. However, as an eunuch, Zhao Si understood the great righteousness and interpreted the word "loyalty" to the fullest, and had to admire it.
