preface:
There have been cases of orphanage in all dynasties and dynasties, but what does the word "orphan" say?
There are good endings and bad endings, and the story of the orphan I want to talk about today is a failed orphan, the emperor entrusted the prince to his brother on his deathbed, and the prince just succeeded to the throne, and the younger brother launched a mutiny to kill his nephew and seize the throne
During the reign of Emperor Wen of Chen, the strength of southern Chen Guoli was significantly improved, and Emperor Wendi Chen was trying to make his career better while it was hot, but he fell ill and died.
In 566, before emperor Wen of Chen died, he called his son Chen Bozong to the bedside and said: In the future, if you can't do a good job, let your uncle help you do it for a while, you learn from the experience next to you, and when he is old and doesn't want to be emperor, then let you be.
How old was Chen Bozong at that time? - Teenage years old.
Seeing that his father was almost gone, Chen Bozong only knew how to cry, and Emperor Chen Wendi's younger brother, the later Emperor Xuan of Chen, listened to Emperor Chen Wendi's words and shook his hand directly— indicating that I refused. I will help my nephew well, big brother, you can rest assured.
Emperor Chen Wendi got his satisfactory answer and left, but if he knew what his brother Emperor Xuandi had done, he would be able to come alive.
————————————————————
After the death of Emperor Wen of Chen in 566, Chen Bozong became the third emperor of Southern Chen. Emperor Chen's uncle Chen Yan (顼), also known as Emperor Xuan of Chen, served as an auxiliary chancellor.
At first, Emperor Chen Xuandi was still obedient, but later, when military affairs were decided by himself, other members of the royal family began to spread rumors on the social networking sites of the buckle group.
When Emperor Xuan of Chen heard these rumors, he originally had the intention of usurping the throne and decided to let the rumors become facts.
In 568, Emperor Xuan of Chen killed his nephew Chen Bozong and made himself emperor and made his son Chen Shubao crown prince.
Emperor Xuan of Chen had thought that there would be many ministers who would oppose or scold him for mutiny and usurpation, but he did not expect that almost all the ministers of culture and military affairs would side with him.
Although Emperor Xuan of Chen's means of ascending to the throne were very inferior, he was another very accomplished Ming Emperor of Southern Chen, building water conservancy projects, reclaiming wasteland, encouraging peasant production, and so on, so Nan Chen not only did not have the meaning of economic recession but also a little rising in his hands.
The highlight moment came- the Taijian Northern Expedition
A person always has a brilliant time, promoted to rich wife and childbirth, and the highest moment of Emperor Chen Xuan's glory is the Northern Expedition of Taijian.
Although he was the emperor in a place with a large palm block in Jiangnan, Emperor Chen Xuan's life was still very good. However, the geography is not good, starting from his uncle Emperor Chen Wu, the Chen Dynasty is the Yangtze River natural danger shared with the enemy, the enemy can easily reach his own home.
Therefore, Emperor Xuan of Chen began to inherit his uncle's will and prepare to defend the country and carry out the Northern Expedition.
Emperor Xuan of Chen
The object of the Northern Expedition was Northern Qi.
At that time, Northern Qi, after several generations of unremitting death, began to have a bit of a finished meaning.
The wall was pushed down by everyone, and for the Northern Qi, Northern Zhou and Southern Chen who were not in the past, they were all worried about it. So Southern Chen and Northern Zhou joined forces to plan to eat Northern Qi.
In the fourth year of Taijian, that is, in 573, Emperor Xuan of Chen asked Wu Mingche to lead people to attack Northern Qi, and the first Taijian Northern Expedition, the Chen Dynasty general Wu Mingche almost returned the entire Huainan region to the Southern Dynasty.
The Taijian Northern Expedition seized a large area of land in Huainan, and the hero Wu Cheming
Wei Zheng once praised: Emperor Xuan of Chen "divided the sun, swept the wind and swept the wind, cleared the land for thousands of miles, and defeated the momentum of the attack, which had not been seen in recent times." ”
Especially in the Battle of Shouyang, Wu Mingche also captured Wang Lin, who had always been an enemy of the Chen Dynasty, alive. At that time, many people in The Chen Army were Wang Lin's old subordinates, all interceding for the old lord and sending food and drink.
Wu Mingche was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so he asked people to cut Wang Lin down
Hearing the news of his death, the local people cried like thunder, Wang Lin was graceful in appearance, moody and angry, strong in memory, not indiscriminate in punishment, light on wealth and love, very good at the heart of a pawn.
And Gao Wei, the lord of northern Qi who lost his territory, did not take it seriously at all, saying: It was originally their place, and they should take it back
The Northern Qi family's Gao Huan Gao Cheng Gao Yang Gao Zhan's underground knowledge, the expression will be like this
Speaking of which, let me catch my breath
If Emperor Xuan of Chen had continued the Northern Expedition, he would probably have eliminated Northern Qi. However, Emperor Xuan of Chen's Northern Expedition only depended on Gou An and got Huainan beef soup
No, I said it was wrong, it was Emperor Chen Xuandi who got the Huainan region, a little rich and peaceful, and began to grind foreign workers and did not continue to walk. Watching the Northern Zhou eat the big rice ball of the Northern Zhou.
Then, like an illness, Emperor Xuan of Chen wanted to fight with Northern Zhou for territory and launch a large-scale Northern Expedition, but the benefits were not obtained, and the large areas of Huainan land that he ate in his stomach were also spit out
In the face of the tiger-eyed Northern Zhou, the countdown to the lives of Southern Chen and Emperor Chen Xuandi began, but the result was unexpected, and Emperor Chen Xuandi and Emperor Yuwen yong of Zhou wu were gone.
For the crown prince Chen Shubao and Nan Chen, they were both lucky, the father was gone, he could take the throne, the enemy Emperor Zhou Wu was gone, and Nan Chen was temporarily fine.
The former is easy to understand, but what about the latter?
Because Emperor Wu of Zhou did not die, it is estimated that within a year or two, the Chen Dynasty will die.
Emperor Wu of Zhou fell ill and died, northern Zhou civil unrest, and finally Yang Jian seized power in Northern Zhou, established the Sui Dynasty, and then worked hard at home to suppress Yuwen forces at home, which made the Chen Dynasty survive for nearly a decade.
The Sui Dynasty, which inherited the territory of northern Zhou
In general, during the reign of Emperor Xuandi Chen, the country was relatively stable and the politics were relatively clear.
The bad place is that Emperor Xuan of Chen's highlight moment, the Northern Expedition of Taijian, overdrawn the life of the Chen Dynasty.
There are three reasons, one, 200,000 troops, that is, one of the ten people is a soldier, to know that when Southern Chen fell, the population was only 2 million, too built the Northern Expedition, consumed a lot of manpower and material resources
Second, Hou Jing's rebellion led to the decline of the shi clan, resulting in a state of shortage of talents in Southern Chen from beginning to end
Third, Huainan gained and lost. At this point, the blame is to blame the predecessor Nanliang, which lost half of the Yangtze River defense line, and the key to the success of the first Taijian Northern Expedition lies in the strategy of jointly attacking Qi and the strategic contraction of Northern Qi in the Huainan region, and in the face of a unified Northern Zhou, it can only be said that gg.
Comments from others
Yu Shinan, a chancellor of the early Tang Dynasty, commented: "Emperor Xuan's measure is grand and broad, and he can be described as the lord of leniency and benevolence. ”
Li Yanshou's "History of the South" commented: "Emperor Xuan of Chen's instrument is generous and generous, and there is a measure of a king
