Feng Bao
Speaking of Feng Bao, I have to say that he has another thing, he actually gave birth to more than 100 children, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most fertile emperor in Chinese history. However, the more than 100 children of Feng Bao's end were more tragic, and they were all killed by his brother Feng Hong. One can give birth, one can kill, and it is really a rare pair of brothers in history.
Back to the main topic, how did Feng Bao establish a political power in a chaotic world?
This matter began with Feng Bao's grandfather, who led the entire family to migrate to the Shangdang region of Shanxi in order to escape the war at that time. At that time, the dynasty here was still Western Yan. Western Yan was not bad to their family, and his father Feng An had also been a great general of Western Yan.
However, The Western Yan did not last long, and was destroyed by Jian Jian in 394 AD. The family moved to Houyan again. Soon after Feng Bao arrived in Houyan, he was appointed as the general of the Zhongwei, from Erpin, equivalent to the current head of the Guard Bureau. How did the good Zhongwei general become the founding emperor of Northern Yan again?
Feng Hong
This had to start with his other younger brother, Feng Sufu. Feng Sufu was a man of great temperament, allowing himself to be debauched and did not cultivate sub-sections, which offended Murong Xi, the Emperor of Later Yan. This paid off, and Murong Xi wanted to kill the two brothers. The two brothers had no choice but to run to the mountains to hide in order to survive. But hiding in the mountains is not always the way, Feng Bao and Feng Sufu brothers discussed, Murong Xi this person is absurd, jealous of you and my brothers, but also want to kill us, even the way back is gone, can not involve the family, simply reversed.
In 407, under the cover of a woman's trolley, the brothers Feng Bao and Feng Sufu secretly sneaked into Longcheng and hid in the northern part of Sima Sun's home, preparing to launch a coup d'état when the Later Yan emperor Murong Xi was giving Empress Dowager a funeral, and then elected Murong Yun as the King of Yan. Murong Xi was killed, and after the King of Yan ascended the throne, he made Feng Baozhong (劉跋侍中), the General of Zhengbei (征北大將軍), the Kaifu Yi Tongsan Division (開府宜同三司), and the Duke of Wuyi (武邑公).

Murong Yun, who had become emperor, probably had no experience in governing the government, and he listened to the brothers Feng Bao and Feng Sufu to make decisions on everything. In 409, murong Yun's throne had just been warmed up, and he was killed by his favorite vassals, Ren Ban and Tao Ren. The country could not be without a monarch for a day, and Feng Bao killed ban and so on, calling himself the King of Yan Tianwang, still taking Yan as the name of the country, Dulong City, and the history was called Northern Yan.
Feng Bao reigned for 22 years, and it was difficult to maintain the stability and development of Northern Yan in a chaotic world. In the twenty-second year of taiping (430 AD), Feng Bao fell ill and died, and Yuwen Cheng, the temple name Taizu.
