Li Shimin was originally only the second son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, and he was not qualified to inherit the throne according to the primogeniture inheritance system, but he seized the right opportunity to launch the Xuanwumen Rebellion, killing the crown prince Li Jiancheng, the third brother Li Yuanji and his family, and forcing his father Li Yuan to abdicate. <>
This bloody coup d'état is really against the traditional ethics and morality of our country, but history has always been written by the victor, Li Shimin is undoubtedly the winner of this coup, he became the ruler of the Tang Dynasty, so it is natural to beautify this matter after ascending the throne. <>
According to the historical records of the Tang Dynasty, the relationship between Li Shimin, who was still the king of Qin at that time, and the crown prince Li Jiancheng was not good, and the two brothers often had some conflicts, which were mainly caused by the uneven distribution of the two sons by Tang Gaozu. Although Li Shimin is not the eldest son, he contributed the most when Li Yuan fought the country, so Li Shimin felt that the position of the prince should be his own, but after Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty, he only handed over the military power to Li Shimin, and the position of the crown prince was still Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng felt that his father gave such an important military power to Li Shimin, so Li Shimin was likely to threaten his throne, so Li Jiancheng's attitude towards Li Shimin was not good. <>
The history books say that Li Jiancheng once poisoned Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was able to save his life by seeking medical treatment in time, if this is really the case, Li Shimin's later Xuanwumen change is not so excessive, it seems that it was only to ensure his own safety that the coup d'état was launched. Of course, we can't verify whether this statement is true or false, because Li Shimin will naturally leave the side that is most beneficial to him. Moreover, no matter who finally becomes the monarch, as long as it is good for the people and good for the country, although Li Shimin sat on the throne through a coup d'état, he can really be called a Ming monarch, under his governance, the Tang Dynasty has made great progress, and the lives of the people have also been greatly improved.
-
Because after Li Shimin became the emperor, he made great efforts to govern the country and create a prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty was strong and prosperous.
-
On the one hand, Li Shimin himself has talents and many achievements. On the other hand, Li Shimin is the final winner, and they are often the ones who write history. It is indispensable to add some helpless and beautiful words.
-
Because Li Shimin, as an emperor, would not allow such a thing to spread, and his merits were much greater than this.
-
Because Li Shimin did not become a tyrant or anything like that after seizing the throne, he did a lot of things that benefited the people, so for the people, it doesn't matter who is the emperor, it is actually very important for him to live comfortably. If Li Shimin is a tyrant, then there will be more people who will say about him in later generations.
-
Li Shimin's real goal is to seize power, he is not aiming for the crown prince, but for Li Yuan, and wants to seize the country in this way.
-
Obtaining the throne, of course, was directed at Li Yuan, and at that time, if there was no way to obtain the throne, he would face death and face a serious blow to his own power.
-
Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Mutiny for the throne of the crown prince, and he could only inherit the throne by killing the prince, not against Li Yuan.
Kneeling is a ritual to see one's father and mother, and the act of kneeling is a reaction to one's nurturing kindness to one's elders, which is a manifestation of filial piety.
Because no matter what Li Shimin does, he just wants the throne, and there is only one purpose, if he can, he naturally doesn't want to be charged with killing his father again, even if he has already killed his brother. Therefore, he still has to act, and it is best to let his father take the initiative to abdicate, although everyone knows the truth, but everyone doesn't want the truth, everyone wants to survive. >>>More
As we all know, the Xuanwumen Rebellion ended in the complete victory of the King of Qin, and Li Shimin killed his elder brother Li Jiancheng and younger brother Li Yuanji. So why did you leave your own Laozi Li Yuan? The main thing is to make a smooth transition of power, and to leave a good reputation for being appointed as the crown prince and ascending to the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. >>>More
Li Shimin is Li Yuan's second son, and Li Shimin's eldest brother is Li Jiancheng, because Li Jiancheng's military exploits are not as prominent as Li Shimin, and Li Shimin has prestige, and Li Jiancheng is the eldest son and should inherit the throne. Therefore, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Rebellion and killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. Soon, Li Yuan voluntarily abdicated for Tang Taizu, and Li Shimin ascended the throne as Tang Taizong.
It was mainly because Li Shimin did not raise his vigilance against his nephew and daughter-in-law that she had an opportunity.
