As the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, the figures on the List of Ling Yange are also the Dukes, why Cheng Bite Jin can be hereditary, but Qin Qiong can't, today, Xinyuanjun will talk to you about the reasons.
Qin Qiong and Cheng Qiongjin are familiar to everyone, so they will not be introduced here, and they all know that Qin Qiong is much more powerful than Cheng Biting Jin. The legend of Cheng biting Jin will be three axes, but Qin Qiong is different, he can be said to be the brave champion of the three armies, but in the ranking of heroes in Lingyange, Cheng Biting Jin ranks 19 and is named the Duke of Lu, while Qin Qiong is ranked last and is named the Duke of Hu. Moreover, Cheng Yaojin was awarded the title of hereditary duke, while Qin Qiong was an ordinary duke.
First, it is physical reasons, according to statistics, Qin Qiong has experienced more than 200 battles, but after a long battle, qin Qiong has never led the army to fight since the Xuanwumen Incident in the ninth year of Wude. Until his death, there are few records of his deeds in historical records. So, later he gradually withdrew from the political arena.
For the first time, it was Cheng Yaojin's personal physical reasons, he lived a long time, and he was deeply trusted by Li Shimin and his successor Li Zhi, even if Wu Zetian later slaughtered the heroes, he could also protect himself. The envoys were all over you, Yi, Tan, Ping, Yan, and The Six Prefectures of Youzhou, and he had jurisdiction over almost half of China's military forces. After Emperor Taizong's death, Cheng Yaojin led a flying cavalry army to escort the crown prince Li Zhi back to the throne, and guarded the zuo Yanming Gate for three consecutive months.
Third, and most crucially, Li Shimin's pivotal event towards the supreme ruler of the empire, the Xuanwumen Incident, when Qin Qiong's name was not on the list of generals. Wei Zheng's evaluation of Qin Qiong: He is a good minister, but he is not a loyal minister, he is loyal only to the sheji and the country, not for anyone to shake the sheji and the country.
It can be said that Qin Qiong was an important minister of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, but in the process of supporting Li Shimin as emperor, he did not have any merit.
