Read the history of the old five generations, share important historical records every day, and feel insights.
Since ancient times, there have been many chaotic worlds, among which there are even fewer Dao kings, and when the five generations are in turmoil, Li Siyuan of the Later Tang Dynasty is one of the few who deserves praise. If he could be given more time, or if he had ascended to the throne a few hours earlier, perhaps Later Tang would have really inherited the cause of the Tang Dynasty and become a bright pearl.
Later Emperor Mingzong of Tang, Li Siyuan, a native of Benshatuo, was adopted as a righteous son by Emperor Wu Li Keyong, and since then, along with Emperor Wu and Li Cunxun, he has fought on the battlefield, fought bloodily, and made many military achievements, which has reached the height of "those who are in danger of reviving the lord of the industry, and those who have done great deeds to cover the world are not rewarded". Therefore, he was suspected by Zhuangzong Li Cunxun.
Just at this time, Wei Bo's military rebellion was originally ordered to be requisitioned, but he was abducted by the rebels to support self-reliance, and Li Siyuan escaped control under the pretext of recovering other scattered soldiers, and then joined his subordinates. After deliberating, it was decided to take the land of Bizhou to lay the foundation for a confrontation for himself.
Li Siyuan's troops were fast, and he took control of Bian Prefecture one step earlier than Li Cunxun, at this time, most of the important armies of the Later Tang Dynasty turned to Li Siyuan, and Li Siyuan's strength was greatly increased, and his strength was unprecedented. He was separated from Li Cunxun by tens of miles, but he did not meet him. Coupled with the repeated persuasion of the generals around him, his heart already had the intention of coveting the throne.
Seeing that the general trend was gone, Li Cunxun had no choice but to retreat to Luoyang and prepare for another battle. Who thought of bringing calamity to Xiao Wall, Guo Congqian rebelled in order to avenge Guo Chongtao, and Li Cunxun led the troops to quell the rebellion, but died under the arrows of the rebel army.
When the news of Li Cunxun's death came out, Li Siyuan's men immediately suggested that he quickly send troops to Luoyang to prepare for the title of emperor in the name of Stabilizing the capital.
Li Siyuan ostensibly refused to claim the title of emperor, and insisted that he wait for Li Jiqian, the king of Wei, to return to Beijing to succeed to the throne, or to find other crown princes to succeed him.
Privately, Li Siyuan's subordinate An Zhongzhi secretly slaughtered the crown princes everywhere, and the rest were either killed by the rebel army or disappeared.
Li Jiqian, the King of Wei, knew that the general situation had gone, and if he returned to Beijing, Li Siyuan's men would certainly not let himself go, and there was no place to live in the world, so he had to hang himself.
In this way, all obstacles were swept away, and Li Siyuan ascended the throne at the age of sixty.
During his seven years on the throne, he had the heart to love the people, but his Shatuo nature was difficult to change, and the rewards and punishments were still unclear, and he did not stop the wanton behavior of the eldest son, Li Congrong, in time, which fueled his ambition to finally rebel and seize the throne. Conniving at the favoritism of his subordinates, many meritorious courtiers were killed.
A few days before Li Siyuan's collapse, he was unwell, and one day he was suddenly very uncomfortable, and his body was suddenly very uncomfortable, and he was close to a coma and could not move.
The King of Qin, Li Congrong, the Grand Marshal of the Terracotta Army, had already determined that his father was unwell or had died but was not mourned.
The King of Qin was originally favored by Emperor Mingzong to take over the throne, but at this time it was determined that his father and emperor had died, and his will to inherit the throne had not yet been made known to the world, and he had acted arbitrarily for many years, and was not welcomed by the courtiers in the court, so how to deal with it if there was a change in the palace. Thinking about it, it is better to fight a battle against the water, kill into the palace and directly establish himself as emperor, and immediately discuss countermeasures with his subordinates, everything is ready, only to wait for the next day to attack.
Emperor Mingzong was already in a coma, who knew that after the four drums that night, he suddenly woke up from the coma, and suddenly turned over from the bed, excited, looking around, and when he saw the Lady of zhilu palace, he asked, "What time is tonight?" The palace maid replied, "Just after four more." "But the official family has fully recovered, how does it feel?" Mingzong said, "It's much better, I have a much clearer mind now." ”
After Mingzong finished speaking, he suddenly squirmed in his stomach and vomited outwards, and he actually spit out several pieces of meat, bright red and pink, which was very similar to the lung lobes, and then peed more than a liter into the drowning apparatus, and suddenly felt refreshed, which was better than before.
When the concubines in the palace got the news, they rushed to congratulate Emperor Mingzong together, "The official family has returned the soul today, but we are happy for the official family." Between the words, Mingzong had already eaten a bowl of porridge himself, and the imperial doctor in the palace hurriedly made food supplements and served them, and by dawn, Mingzong had recovered a lot.
The change in the palace during this night, the King of Qin did not get the news, and the next day he directly led the Tooth Army to line up at Tianjin Bridge.
Neiying, who was in good contact with the King of Qin, failed to go out of the palace to meet him, and the King of Qin was turned away by the forbidden troops who rushed from all sides, and he could not fight it, so in desperation, the King of Qin had to lead his troops back to Henan Province, but was killed by the imperial city envoy An Congyi.
When Emperor Mingzong in the palace received the news, his heart was both sad and frightened, and the sad thing was that Li Congrong, who had high hopes, actually rebelled, and what was shocking was that without his own orders, some people dared to kill the prince himself.
At this time, a kind of sadness of a lonely man came to mind, Mingzong's body trembled, he was no longer the general who galloped across the battlefield and wielded a sword, but a dying old man who was about to die, he hoped to be taken care of by his children, hoped to get their affection, but unfortunately there was only a cold palace wall in front of him.
Emperor Mingzong Li Siyuan was exhausted, and the grief and pain doubled on his heart, causing him to faint several times and fall from the bed several times. As a result, the body deteriorated and it was difficult to recover. As a last resort, he urgently summoned Li Conghou, the King of Song, to rush into Beijing. Before the King of Song arrived, he died.
Drunkenly lying on the battlefield Jun Mo smiled, and Gu Lai conquered several people back
Li Siyuan went in and out of the battlefield countless times, retreated with his whole body, and ascended the throne as an adopted son, Shi Ye, Fate Ye, Ren Ye!
Zhuangzong Li Cunxun was originally a wise and decisive man, but unfortunately later appointed a servant as an official, connived at his wife to amass wealth, and killed meritorious ministers, for Li Siyuan was a heavenly time, Li Siyuan preemptively occupied Bian Prefecture for geographical advantages, and later Tang famous generals surrendered to the people, and the three kings retreated and won the throne.
Throughout Li Siyuan's magnificent life, it can be said that he was a teenager who fought in battle, immediately became famous, made meritorious achievements in his prime, and ascended to the throne in his old age.
The shortcomings of his ruling the country were once said by Kang Cheng, the young secretary of Dali, "Those who are not afraid of the country are five, and those who are deeply feared are six: the three are not enough to be afraid, the celestial phenomena are not enough to be afraid, the villains are not enough to be afraid, the landslides and rivers are not enough to be afraid, the water and drought locusts are not enough to be afraid; the sages are fearful of hiding deeply, the four people are deeply feared, the people who move up and down are deep and fearful, the shame is terrible, the reputation is really deep and fearful, and the blunt words are not heard deeply and fearfully." ”
It is precisely this kind of up-and-down confrontation, the abuse of reputation and chaos, that will have the favored minister An Zhongjie defiled and killed the heavy minister Ren Yuan, and the Qin king Li Congrong arbitrarily rebelled.
It can be seen from this that those who serve the country and the family should know that there are five people who are not afraid of this, and six people who are deeply feared, so that they can settle the country and the country and the people.
I and other small people hope that my Chinese descendants will learn from history and hold hands with each other in the era of the epidemic to tide over the difficulties together.
