Tang Xuanzong is Li Longji's temple name, also known as "Emperor Ming Xiao", so it is also called "Tang Ming Emperor". It is generally believed that the temple number originated in the Shang Dynasty, such as Taijia for Taizong, Taiwu for Zhongzong, and Wuding for Gaozong (Chengtang may be Taizu). The temple number was very strict at first, and according to the standard of "ancestors have merit and ancestors have virtue", the founding monarch is generally the ancestor and successor monarch who has the ability to govern the country.
The ancients of the Temple of the Son of Heaven, the ancestors have merit and the ancestors are virtuous, starting from three generations, until the two Han Dynasty, the name and the truth are compatible, and the ancient and the present are passed on. After the Han Dynasty, the system of temple numbers was inherited. The Han Dynasty was extremely cautious about adding temple numbers, and many emperors did not have temple numbers because of this.
Liu Bang is the founding monarch, the temple name is Taizu (but since Sima Qian, he is called Gaozu, and later generations are used to it), Liu Heng is Taizong (Xiaojing Emperor Liu Qishang Temple Number), Liu Che is Shizong Xiaowu Emperor (Xiaoxuan Emperor Liu Xun on the temple number), Liu Xun is the Zhongzong Xiaoxuan Emperor (Liu Xiu on the temple number), Liu? #93;Emperor Gaozong Xiaoyuan (Liu Yin Shangmiao) and Liu Biao were Emperor Xiaocheng of Tongzong; Liu Xiu of the Eastern Han Dynasty was Emperor Guangwu (Emperor Xiaoming Liu Zhuang Shangmiao), Liu Zhuang was Emperor Xianzong Xiaoming (Emperor Xiaozhang Liu Wei Shangmiao), and Liu Jing was Emperor Suzong Xiaozhang (Xiaohe Emperor Liu Zhao Shangmiao). By the time of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the temple number began to flood.
In the Tang Dynasty, except for some deceased monarchs and short-lived emperors, there were generally temple numbers. Generally speaking, the choice of the temple number also has the meaning of praise and disapproval. Taizu and Gaozu opened the country's business, Shizu and Taizong carried it forward, Shizong and Gaozong all kept the good name of Chengling, Renzong, Xuanzong, Shengzong, Xiaozong, Chengzong, Ruizong, etc. are all Ming monarchs and sages, and Zhongzong and Xianzong are all masters of Zhongxing.
In addition, Zhezong, Xingzong, etc. were all good emperors who made a difference. Shenzong and Yingzong are insufficient, Dezong and Ningzong are too cowardly, Xuanzong, Zhenzong, Lizong, Taoism and other good Xuanxuan, Wenzong and Wuzong are praised and depreciated, Muzong and Jingzong are quite meritorious, Guangzong and Xizong are mediocre and rotten, and Mourning Sect and Sizong can only perish. Li Longji probably made outstanding achievements in the first half of his life and worked hard to make the Tang Dynasty prosperous, but the second half of his life was mediocre, which made the Tang Dynasty decline from prosperity!
Therefore, his temple name is Xuanzong, which shows that his life has ups and downs, full of mysteries!
Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty carried out the reform of the military system and changed the military system to a conscription system. >>>More
One of the reasons why Tang Xuanzong reused Li Linfu, who was jealous of his talents, was that Li Linfu's personal ability was very strong, and his ability to govern the country was also very prominent, and the second reason was that Tang Xuanzong used his defects of being easy to make enemies to restrain him in order to prevent Li Linfu from becoming dominant. Tang Xuanzong was a monarch of the Tang Dynasty, during his reign there was a prime minister named Li Linfu, Li Linfu has a fatal flaw, that is, he is very jealous of talent, according to his character, he will definitely lose a lot of talents for the country, but Tang Xuanzong still reuses him as the prime minister. >>>More
Tang Suzong welcomed Tang Xuanzong back to Chang'an at that time, and disarmed all the six hundred elite soldiers who escorted Tang Xuanzong and disbanded them on the spot. And Tang Suzong Li Heng's purpose is this, in order to keep the imperial power in his hands.
Li Bai fell out of favor in front of Tang Xuanzong, I think it was because Li Bai's poetry was not suitable for the atmosphere of that era, not the aesthetic orientation of that era.
Although the Tang Dynasty has always had the saying of prosperity, there are very few meritorious emperors who can be mentioned by later generations, except for Li Shimin and Wu ZetianIt is Tang Xuanzong Li LongjiUnlike the first two who created a prosperous era in the Taiping era, the prosperous era of Kaiyuan during the Tang Xuanzong period was created in a crisis. After that, the glory of Datang gradually turned from prosperity to decline. <> >>>More
