1. The adulterous aunt kills his brother and usurps the throne. Born in 1170, Emperor Xiangzong of Xia was the seventh emperor of Western Xia, the grandson of Li Qianshun of Xia Chongzong, the nephew of Li Renxiao of Xia Renzong, and the son of Li Renyou the Prince of Yue. In 1196, Renyou died, and Security wrote to request the title of King of Yue, but Emperor Huanzong of Western Xia did not allow it, and Security was demoted to the title of King of Zhenyi County, he was extremely dissatisfied, so he had the heart to usurp the throne. Xia Renzong Li Renxiao ruled for more than fifty years, the country was stable and peaceful for a long time, and the emperor was a bit "benevolent" excessive, resulting in the increasing corruption of the officials, and the country began to weaken, which was actually a mess. At this stage, Huanzong took over the shift, pursued the political policy and foreign policy of his father's reign, protected the people at home, made good friends with Jin and Song externally, and continued to be a benevolent prince. However, the soft-heartedness of mercy could not rectify the dirty officialdom, and the officials at all levels in Western Xia were arrogant and lascivious, corrupt, and oppressed the good, and the common people complained bitterly, and the western Xia state became an irreversible trend from prosperity to decline. In 1206, Li An'an unexpectedly hooked up with the high-ranking Empress Luo as a lover, committed adultery and incest, and became a powerful helper for himself to seek power, conspiring to depose Emperor Huanzong Li Chunyou and ascending the throne himself as emperor, known as Xia Xiangzong.

The Mongol army gathered troops to attack fiercely, the Xia army was defeated, and the Mongol army took advantage of the victory to march south, reaching the important pass on the outskirts of Zhongxing Province - Keyi Gate, the terrain of Keyi Gate is precipitous, and the two mountains outside the Pass are facing each other, only one path can be passed, and the suspension can never be climbed. The Mongolian army diverted the Yellow River to flood the city, the soldiers and civilians of the Xia kingdom suffered heavy casualties, and the city walls were about to collapse, so Li An sent envoys to the Jin kingdom for help in an emergency. At that time, the reigning emperor of the Jin Dynasty was the famous Emperor Wei Shao of the Jin Dynasty, King Guanyan Yongji, who disregarded the principle that the two countries of Jinxia and Jinxia were cold in the eyes of the courtiers, and even said, "If the enemies attack each other, the blessings of our country are also good, why bother?" "Rejected Xixia's request. The two sides held each other for two months, the city of Zhongxingfu was in danger, just at this time the Mongols themselves built a diversion embankment also collapsed, the water flooded themselves, so the Mongolian army agreed to the surrender application of the Xia King, Li Safe sacrificed his daughter and many gold and silver treasures, a large number of livestock, sent people to the Mongols to negotiate peace, the Mongol army only retreated.

Third, the fainting enemy is abolished. In the face of the rise of Mongolia and the weakening of Xia Jin, Xia Xiangzong Li Security obviously lacked political foresight, and could not see the alliance between Jin and Mongolia to form a balance of power and maintain western Xia for a long time. On the contrary, it was short-sighted, because the Jin Dynasty did not rescue itself, but launched a war against the Jin Dynasty. In 1212, Emperor Xiangzong of Xia sent more than 10,000 troops to attack Jinyao Prefecture (金葭州, in modern Jia County, Shaanxi), which meant the breakdown of relations between the two countries. The Xia Jin War lasted for 3 years, with 25 large and small battles, an average of two times a year, and the frequency of the number of wars was rare in the history of the Xia Kingdom. The war has had serious consequences for both sides. One of the consequences was that the military strength of Xia and Jin was greatly weakened by this war, and both countries were exhausted, thus creating conditions for Mongolia to extinguish Summer and Gold. The second consequence was to inflict the scourge of war on the peoples of Xiajin and Jin. The third consequence was that Western Xia suffered huge economic losses. In 1211, his nephew Li Zunyan (李遵顼), the King of Qi, launched a coup d'état, and Li Was deposed and died a month later, at the age of forty-two. Emperor Jingmu, temple number Xiangzong.
