Why Li Shimin and Zhu Di have a lot of criticism from historians

The reason is simple, historians at that time were very particular about order. Li Shimin killed his elder brother and Zhu Di killed his nephew, both of which violated human morality. Therefore, even if they succeed in usurping the throne and have economic development, they will not be recognized by historians.

The later history was revised by them for the sake of reassuring the people, for their rule, and many of the real history has disappeared, such as Zhu Di's biological mother, who does not seem to be Queen Ma at all, the real biological mother historian can only guess that the history of the dynasty at that time was under their control, and what they needed was true, and they didn't care about its originality.

The Xuanwumen Incident Li Shimin killed his brother and seized the throne, and Zhu Di killed his nephew Zhu Yunwen. Because of this reason, future generations have always criticized it.

Both of these are usurpers, and there will definitely be some hidden secrets that historians want to figure out, so they are controversial.

Who doesn't want a friendly reputation, let alone an emperor!

History books are written by people, how many Taishi Gong?

God knows what the real history is.

Interests always affect people's hearts.

Usurpation is controversial. But they are all good emperors! Let's all worship!!

History is inherently inconclusive.

The existence of justice shows that there is still research value.

Li Shimin and Zhu Di are both meritorious figures.

This mu is because Li Shimin is very concerned about the lives of the people, and can realize tax reductions and exemptions, and can also better govern the country, and attaches great importance to the governance of the surrounding countries, and never tramples on them by force. That's why Minyan Shensheng is so good.

Although Li Shimin's behavior is not particularly good, he can also make a lot of contributions, so his reputation is relatively good.

Because Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Rebellion, it was only confined to the capital, and it had no impact on the surname. and Li Shimin killed the crown prince and forced Li Yuan to abdicate, which is not a real rebellion. And Zhu Di rebelled, the war swept half of the Ming Dynasty, and the people also suffered from the war, Zhu Di was a real rebellion.

Li Shimin's reputation is naturally much better.

The historical period is different: in the early Tang Dynasty, the gate valve of the scholar clan still existed, and Li Shimin maintained considerable tolerance for the stability of the country. In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial power was strengthened, the scholars declined, and the political cost of the emperor's killing was very small.

The emperor's personal difference: Li Shimin wants to be the first emperor of the ages and wants to wash away the stains, so naturally he will not block the way of speech, nor will he open the ring of killing pants.

The enemy ends differently:

Li Shimin's biggest stain is here. He killed his brother-in-law, and his nephew did not let go, and even put his sister-in-law and sister-in-law in the house. and then forced Li Yuan to abdicate and confine himself in the deep palace. In the eyes of Confucian scholars, it is simply an unfilial and unjust beast.

On the other hand, Zhu Di raised troops under the banner of Jingnan, and did not kill Emperor Jianwen and his heirs. And the loss of Guang and Emperor Jianwen Fang Xiaoru is indeed contrary to human morality, forcing many vassal kings to death, most of whom are the uncles of Emperor Jianwen. Many scholars were sympathetic to the vassal kings who were forced to die.

Of course, the number of people who died in the Xuanwu Gate was far less than that of Jingyan, but what happened to the dead and alive doctors of the mud legs?

Zhu Di and Li Shimin both became emperors by usurping the throne, but Li Shimin's reputation is very good, and almost all of them are praised. Zhu Ruyan scolded the scum a lot, why is this? One is that the nature is different, and the other is that the impact and damage caused are not the same.

Third, historical contributions and status are not the same.

Because Li Shimin led the army to overthrow the Sui dynasty.

Li Shimin killed his brother and killed his brother through the Xuanwumen Change, forcing his father Li Yuan to abdicate and ascend to the throne.

Because the two of them got the throne in different ways, Zhu Di's way was obviously too bloody, and Li Shichang was more tolerant of his old subordinates after seizing the throne of Huang Beihuai, so the people of Nai Dashi had different evaluations of the two.

Because after Li Shimin became the Emperor of Fuchen, he was bored and made a Shengxian Hall to accept the world, and he was a good emperor in people's mouths, and he was more sympathetic to the people, but after Zhu Di ascended the throne, his reputation was not particularly good.

Li Shimin became the emperor after the lead change of the Xuanwumen Bridge in the manuscript, but he was forced to do so, and in the end, he also respected Li Yuan as the emperor. But Zhu Di grabbed Min and respected the emperor of his nephew Zhu Yunwen. led to the disappearance of Zhu Yunwen.

Success and defeat, history cannot be traced drama, history is history, and TV series are TV series.

Because the two of them have different ways of getting the throne, Zhu Di's way is too bloody and Wang Xian, and Li Shimin is more tolerant of his old subordinates after seizing the throne, so Li Shimin is more popular with the people.

The cost of the change of dynasties is very large, the loser will be killed or exiled, and the person who inherits the throne will have to endure many things. Zhu Di and Li Shimin both belong to the style of seeking power and usurping the throne, but why do they scold Zhu Di so much and Li Shimin so little?

First of all, let's talk about Li Shimin, who everyone is familiar with, Li Shimin is Li Yuan's second son, and Li Yuan has been very smart since he was a child. However, he also has an older brother. Li Yuan had a bad attitude towards Li Shimin, and later, Li Shimin followed his father to fight everywhere on the battlefield, Li Yuan was once caught by an enemy soldier, and Li Shimin entered the enemy camp to rescue his father without fear.

Such courage and courage are admirable. Later, Li Shimin had already seen that the Sui and Tang dynasties were dying, and suggested that his father could destroy the Sui Dynasty, but Li Yuan felt that it was not appropriate. After Li Shimin said it many times, he realized that there was really a possibility of rebellion.

After becoming the emperor, Li Shimin lived up to his father's expectations of carrying blind dates. He fought all the way to the battlefield and defended the country. He made a lot of contributions, which made the military debate team worship him, far more than Li Yuan.

For the eldest son, Tang Gaozu began to weaken his power. Later, the two brothers apparently began to seize the throne. However, Li Shimin has won the hearts of most people. He killed all of Li Yuan's sons, which shows that he is ruthless.

The stories of Zhu Di and Li Shimin are different. Zhu Di is Zhu Yuanzhang's fourth son, both civil and military, but he also has a big brother who has become a prince, and Zhu Biao is also gentle and kind to his brothers. But the accident came too suddenly.

Zhu Biao died in his thirties, but Zhu Yuanzhang made a decision that no one could have imagined to make Zhu Biao's son the crown prince. After Zhu Yunwen became the emperor, he was a bad king and made a mess of the country. Zhu Di took the opportunity to seize the throne.

Compared with Li Shimin, what is wrong with Zhu Di and why does it have so many bad names? In fact, because of the different actions after becoming the emperor, everyone can see what Li Shimin has done, and he is really very capable, so that the Tang Dynasty has achieved unprecedented development. On the other hand, Zhu Di, although he fought everywhere and seized a large area of land, also made the economy of the Ming Dynasty depressed.

In the case of the people's complaints, in order to increase military spending and taxes, the people fell into dire straits, which also explains why Zhu Di was abused so much.

Because Li Shimin sought power and usurped the throne because Li Yuan was a faint and unscrupulous emperor, he did this for the good of the people, and let Li Yuan take the initiative to abdicate.

Because Li Shimin did a lot of things during his reign, the country is relatively stable, and people's lives are relatively stable.

Because Li Shimin led the country to a better development, he beautified his description of himself in history.

The first reason is that it is easy for all of us to think of it. At that time, Li Tang's world was almost entirely fought by Li Shimin, so Li Shimin had a high prestige. Li Yuan was in a relatively weak position, his father was weak and his son was strong, and there was a great possibility of success in forcing the palace, so Li Shimin launched a coup d'état and seized the throne.

But on the other hand, Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang, the father and son, are the son Zhu Di is strong, but the old son Zhu Yuanzhang is stronger. Zhu Yuanzhang single-handedly laid down his country, how domineering this is, even Zhu Di, who was very powerful later, did not dare to argue with Lao Tzu Zhu Yuanzhang. After Zhu Yuanzhang's death, he launched a coup d'état and ousted Zhu Yunwen from the throne.

Zhu Di is indeed very powerful, but Li Shimin needs to be discussed.

First of all, it is impossible to clear the point of killing his brother and forcing his father, Zhu Di's rebellion was forced, but Li Shimin took the initiative to rebel.

Secondly, what is recorded in the history books is that "the Xuanwumen Incident was forced to be helpless" and "Li Shimin's various exploits" are not very credible. Li Shimin was the first emperor to look through the historical records, and before that, even Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Yang of Sui could not interfere with how the historians recorded themselves, and Li Shimin did this.

Li Shimin is the first emperor of the ages, his political skills and employment are first-class, Zhu Di just has no opponents, his colleagues used the right people, and gave up Shandong to directly attack Nanjing.

A person's ability is related to experience and thinking, these two people have experienced more things in the world, pay attention to learning, summarize, love to think, have their own opinions, dare to undertake, continue to do, and slowly improve their ability, so they have great courage and knowledge.

The environment determines that they are all in the bloody war years, they have just won the country, there are many unstable factors, the struggle for political rights is fierce, and the people who can win in this situation are very powerful.

There are a few emperors of the generation who are not powerful and think about how to sit on the throne every day, how to make the country always their own, and they have to learn a lot and read a lot of books every day.
