What kind of person is King Teng, the son of Li Yuan?

King Teng was Li Yuan's twenty-second son, and his original name was Li Yuanying. It was named after the fiefdom of Tengzhou, Shandong, and was called "King Teng".

Although he was born into a royal family, he was not interested in fame and power in the slightest. Perhaps he has already seen through the open and secret political struggles, and hates the disrecognition of his six relatives for the sake of power and the throne, the brothers kill each other, and the swords and blood meet each other.

Therefore, when Li Shimin changed in Xuanwumen, he killed his own brother Li Jiancheng and his younger brother Li Yuanji. But he cared for him very much, and was crowned king and fief. Li Shimin must have known that King Teng's heart was not above the imperial court and did not pose a threat to his throne.

From this point of view, King Teng is a smart person, in that era of fierce political struggles for power, he did not fight or grab, and it was also a way to survive.

He is also a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune. Not obsessed with power, not fighting, this kind of spirit was rare and valuable at that time. Because very few people can have the same state of mind as he does.

He does not chase fame and fortune, but puts his mind on landscape and literature. He loves poetry, lyrics, calligraphy, and painting, and is worthy of a generation of talents. Presumably everyone knows Wang Bo's "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion".

This time-honored literary work has amazed future generations. And the "Tengwang Pavilion" was built by King Teng. This is also a great achievement of King Teng.

Because King Teng loves to drink and write poems, he loves to drink and write poems between mountains and rivers. Having beautiful scenery around you, and then having friends to accompany you and compose poems to welcome you is really a great pleasure in life.

Although he was belittled several times, it did not bother him at all. Because there are mountains and rivers to accompany you, there are fine wines, and there are more beautiful poems to cultivate sentiment. He lives so chic, optimistic and broad.

In this kind of life, although there is no fame, fortune and power, but you can do whatever you want and get close to nature, which is enviable!

Many people don't know who King Teng is, but everyone must have heard the sentence "Luoxia and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn water grows together in the sky", yes, this poem is not written by King Teng, but his name is "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion", that is to say, Wang Bo depicts the attic built by King Teng, which can be seen that King Teng likes to play in the mountains and rivers.

Tengwang Li Yuanying is Li Yuan's twenty-second son and Li Shimin's younger brother, but Li Shimin killed several brothers in order to seize power, but at the time of the Xuanwumen Change, Li Yuanying was still very young and had no threat to Li Shimin at all. Li Yuanyingzhi is not above the temple, but between the mountains and rivers, he especially likes to play in the mountains and rivers, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are proficient, and some people even call his paintings "Teng Pai butterfly paintings", although he is not interested in the imperial court, but he still can't mistake the derogation again and again, but his mentality is very good, every place to see the scenery first, and then sketch around, and his life is so plain.

Built, Shimin, Xuanba, Yuanji.

Li Yuan's eldest son is called Li Jiancheng, and "built" means to make meritorious contributions and achieve great achievements; Li Yuan's second son is named Li Shimin, "Shimin" means to help the people through the world, govern the country well, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment. The names of Li Yuan's eldest son and second son are connected, indicating that Li Yuan is ambitious, wants to establish his own achievements, and is full of ambition. Li Yuan's third son is called Li Xuanba, and "Xuanba" means to dominate the world, which reflects Li Yuan's ambition that he can't hide.

Li Yuan's fourth son is called Li Yuanji, "Yuanji" means that Li Yuan wants to replace the emperor to become a new generation of the Son of Heaven, the word Yuan is actually the meaning of the head of state, and the clothes of the ancient emperor are called Yuanfu. The names of Li Yuanhou's two sons indicate that he has the ambition to dominate the world and become emperor.

Tang Gaozu Li Yuanzi Shude. The founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty of China, a politician and military commander in the early Tang Dynasty, the grandson of Li Hu, the Taizu of the Tang Dynasty, and the son of Li Hu, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty. As the founding monarch of the Tang Dynasty, historians have mixed evaluations of Li Yuan.

There is a view that he is indecisive and indecisive, the rewards and punishments are unknown, and from the establishment of the Tang Dynasty to the pacification of the world, it all depends on the strength of his second son Li Shimin. There is also an opinion that he has a calculating and far-sighted side. Some of the measures promulgated in the early Tang Dynasty established the basic systems and policies of the Tang Dynasty, laying the foundation for the later "rule of Zhenguan".

The names of Li Yuan's four sons are connected: Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Xuanba, and Li Yuanji.

1. Li Jiancheng (589-626), small character Bishamen. The founding prince of the Tang Dynasty, the eldest son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, the eldest brother of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and a native of Longxi Chengji. Before Li Yuan raised troops, Li Jiancheng was ordered by his father to recruit talents in Hedong, and then Li Jiancheng went to Taiyuan to help Li Yuan raise troops, and followed Li Yuan to attack the West River, take Huoyi, reject Tongguan, and conquer Chang'an.

After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, he was made the crown prince and assisted Li Yuan in handling political affairs. Li Jiancheng led his army to repel the Turkic invasions many times, captured Liu Heimin, who colluded with the Turks, and pacified Shandong. In the ninth year of Wude, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident and personally shot Li Jiancheng at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve, and his five sons were killed together.

2. Li Shimin is Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, born in the annex of Wugong (now Shaanxi Wugong), the second son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan and Empress Dou, the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty, an outstanding politician, strategist, military strategist, and poet.

Li Shimin joined the army as a young man and went to Yanmen Pass to rescue Emperor Yang of Sui. After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin's official residence was Shang Shuling, the general of the Right Wuhou, and was awarded the title of Duke of Qin, and later the Jin Dynasty was named the King of Qin, and successively led his troops to pacify Xue Rengao, Liu Wuzhou, Dou Jiande, Wang Shichong and other warlords, and made great achievements in the establishment and unification of the Tang Dynasty.

3, Li Xuanba (ruler 599 - 614), surnamed Li, the word Dade, the third son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, Tang Taizong Li Shimin's younger brother, mother Taimu Queen Dou, Longxi Chengji. Li Xuanba has been arguing since he was a child. In the tenth year of the Sui Dynasty (614), Li Xuanba died, only sixteen years old, childless, Tang Gaozu took Li Shimin's second son Li Tai as his heir, and crowned Li Tai as the king of Wei.

4. Li Yuanji (July 2, 603-626), named Li Jie, small character Sanhu, was a native of Chengji, Longxi. The fourth son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, born to Empress Dou, and the fourth brother of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Guess the owl is arrogant, brave, and good at using the horse lance.

When Tang Gaozu Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan, he led the army to stay in Taiyuan. In the ninth year of Wude (626), Li Shimin launched the "Xuanwumen Change", Li Yuanji and the crown prince Li Jiancheng were killed at the same time, at the age of twenty-four, five sons were killed together, and his wife Yang was forcibly included in the palace by Li Shimin.

Li Yuan has a total of four sons, they are Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Xuanba and Li Yuanji, if we analyze carefully, it is not difficult to find the hidden mystery in these four names.

Li Yuan's eldest son's name is Li Jiancheng, which literally means a desire to be able to establish meritorious deeds and achieve achievements in the future. Generally speaking, the father's unfulfilled wishes will be pinned on his son, and Li Yuan has undoubtedly the determination to dominate the world by giving such a name to his eldest son.

The second son was named Li Shimin, which is also known as Tang Taizong, and "Shimin" had the meaning of "helping the world and the people" in ancient times. We can understand that after dominating the world, we are sympathetic to the people's feelings, which shows Li Yuan's ambition to establish the world and the people. In "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", Li Yuan has a son named "Li Yuanba", but in fact, his original name is "Li Xuanba".

In ancient times, people had the cognition of "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang", and "Xuan" represented the meaning of the world, and it was associated with "Ba", and the meaning was very clear. Since ancient times, every talented person wants to be the king and hegemon, and Li Yuan gave his third son the name of this enlightenment, which shows that he is also interested in the world, and wants to dominate one side and establish himself as the king. After talking about the above three sons, let's take a look at his fourth son, Li Yuanji.

In the word "Yuanji", "Yuan" can represent the meaning of "beginning", and "Ji" has the meaning of good fortune and good fortune. It can be seen that after Li Yuan hopes to dominate the world, the world will begin to be smooth and all the people will be happy.

Through the above introduction, it is not difficult to find that if the names of the four sons are connected, Li Yuan's ambition is undoubtedly revealed, and each name represents a process of unifying the world.

First establish meritorious deeds, then help the world and the people, steady development, and then further dominate the world, and finally change the dynasty, starting a new round of "world harmony".

Looking back on the past, Li Yuan did this in the early days of his reign, and with his efforts, the Central Plains was gradually freed from the wars in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, laying the foundation for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty in the later period.

However, not only Li Yuan had such ambitions as Li Yuan, but his sons were not simple, and finally the Xuanwumen Rebellion broke out, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were killed successively, leaving only Li Shimin, who "helped the world and the people".
