During the Two Jin Dynasties and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Yu clan was also a hero of the first dynasty, with far-reaching influence, including the Yingchuan Yanling (present-day Yanling, Henan) of Taiwei Yuliang and the Xinye (present-day Xinye, Henan) of the literary scholar Yuxin, which were about 500 kilometers apart, creating their own achievements in different fields. Today, I will briefly describe the Yanling Yu clan.
During this period, a total of 15 people of the Yanling Yu clan were listed separately, leaving their names in the history of Qing, and their influence was the most far-reaching. Among them, Yu Yan and Yu Chen brothers as the starting point, Yu Chen's two sons Yu Liang and Yu Bing as the peak, Yu Bing's great-grandson Yu Dengzhi as the follow-up, to Yu Bing's eighth grandson Yu Yu as the end, continuing the ninth dynasty, enjoying a reputation of three hundred years.
The initial stage of the Yanling Yu clan was most influenced by Yu Yan. He was known for his diligence, diligence, filial piety, and charisma, and his ex-wife Xun and his step-wife Leshi were both known as "officials and riches", abandoning their ornate, scattering their wealth, and their husbands were "poor in public security and respectful as guests", and at the same time they were relatives of the emperor and the state, and they were the uncles of Empress Mingmu (died in 328, aged 32). Therefore, the clan township party is not admired, and the doormen are admired. Emperor Hui of Jin's "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", he carried a belt to avoid Yushan, Linxushan, and Datoushan, and later fell off a cliff and died.
Yu Liang (289-340) was the founder of the peak stage. He was the elder brother of Empress Mingmu, the three dynasties of Emperor Yuan, Emperor Ming, and Emperor Cheng. In the third year of Taining (325), he was assisted by Emperor Chengcheng (325-342) as a foreign relative and Wang Dao, and served as Zhongshu Ling (中書令) and took charge of the imperial government. During this period, a misguided policy led to the rebellion of Su Jun and Zu Yue, and although they joined forces with Wen Yu, Tao Kan, and Xi Jian to pacify them, their power suffered great losses. After that, in the face of Emperor Yuan's conclusion that "the difficulty of this society is not the responsibility of the uncle", he still asked for the self-efficacy of the outer town, leading the history of the city and guarding Wuhu. In the ninth year of Xianhe (334), Tao Kan died, and he again guarded Wuchang until his death.
Yu Liang was handsome and handsome, able to speak eloquently, liked to read, was courteous and courteous, and was a powerful "second generation official", so he was deeply valued by emperor Yuan Di (317-322), the founding emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and hired his sister as a princess, and was also the "good cloth of the Ming Emperor". With his super comprehensive qualities and good relations with the royal family, he laid the foundation for the family's take-off. In the early process of his growth, he was conferred the title of Marquis of Tingting with premeditated Huayi Gong and the founding duke of Yongchang County by Pingding Wang Dungong. After that, emperor Ming died, assisted by Emperor Cheng, Jia Liang to Shi Zhong, And Shu Ling, although "the empress dowager is in the dynasty", the political affairs "are decided by Liang", when it was the third year of Taining (325) leap August.
The Rebellion of Su Junzu (327-329) was one of the most important events in the early days of Yu Liang's reign. First of all, Wang Daofu assisted the government with leniency and popularity, and Yu Liang was quite unpopular with the law. In addition, the former emperor's edict praised the ministers, and Su Junzu was "not in the case", causing suspicion and complaints. In addition, Sima Zong, the king of Nanton, plotted to depose the government, and Yu Liang killed Emperor Zong and deposed his brother Shi (the patriarch of the state and the former emperor Baofu), causing a bad impression of expanding the scope of the blow and cutting the clan office. Faced with the signs of Liyang Neishi and the Pingnan general Su Jun (with Ping wang dun, heavy troops in hand, and garrisons to chong) "Dorna's desperation, special threat punishment", he forcibly "enlisted Su Jun as the great Sinong", ignored the indispensable behavior of the dynasty, and got the local heavy minister Wen Yu to exhaust the book and not accept it, acting arbitrarily and arbitrarily, obstinately. When su junzu's rebellion began, Wen Yu prepared to "go down to wei jingshi", but he refused.
In October of the second year of Xianhe (327), Su Jun joined forces with Yuzhou to assassinate Shi Zuyue and rebelled against the Jin Dynasty in the name of Woo Liang. In February of the third year of Xianhe (328), Su Jun invaded Jiankang, holding the imperial court hostage, and Yu Liang fled west to Jiangzhou (江州, in modern Jiujiang, Jiangxi) and the general Wen Yu of Pingnan . In April, Wen Yu and Yu Liang jointly promoted jingzhou (荆州, in modern Jingzhou, Hubei) and the general Zhengxi as their allies, and marched east to Su Jun. At the same time, the general Xi Jian (郗鉴) sent troops from Guangling (廣陵, in present-day Yangzhou, Jiangsu) to march west to Jiankang. Faced with the dilemma of east-west attack and two-front combat, in September, Su Jun was beheaded by Tao Kanbu. In February of the fourth year of Xianhe (329), the armies conquered the stone and quelled the rebellion. During this period, Empress Mingmu was worried about this, and her son Yu Bin was killed, Yu Bing was a development figure at the peak stage, and it was also a turning point, marking the decline of Yu Chen's descendants. Emperor Kang (342-344) ascended the throne, fearing Quansheng and defending Wuchang as a supporter of his brother Yu Yi (340 brother Liang died in Wuchang, died in 345). After that, Empress Kangxian's empress Dowager Chu was in the dynasty, and soon Yu Bing died, about 344 years. Earlier, Yu Yi attempted to assassinate Wang Yunzhi of Jiangzhou with poisoned wine, and was reprimanded by Emperor Cheng, saying, "The uncle has chaotic the world, and the brother-in-law wants to be erye!" He was forced to commit suicide, about 342 years. Within five years, Liang, Yi, Bing, and Yi of Yu Chen's five sons died one after another, plus the worst of the mixed stripes, and Empress Mingmu, who died in 328, and the children almost withered away. Yu Chen's grandchildren carried a total of 13 sons, of which Liangzi died in the rebellion of Su Jun, and 6 of Bing's 7 sons died in Huan Wen, and his influence was sharply reduced. After that, only Yu Bing's great-grandchildren or descendants continued the glory of the family until the Sui Dynasty, which can be regarded as the only remaining fruits.
Messing up the imperial court, harming others, and ultimately being blamed for it, the dissipation of this way is inevitable. Looking at the development history of yushi, it can be said that "its rise and fall, its death is also sudden", which is caused by the unstable foundation. Although Yu Jian is far away, he is still a precept today.
