About Chapter 75 Story Synopsis: Murong Sheng, the Later Yan Emperor of Liaoxi, adopted strict punishment to rule the country, causing dissatisfaction among the courtiers, and was assassinated to death, and Murong Xi of the clan succeeded to the throne by nepotism. And Murong Xi was unscrupulous, which eventually led to the rebellion of Feng Bao and others, and Murong Xi was unpopular and was defeated and killed. Feng Bao and others supported Murong Yun to inherit the throne of Houyan, but Murong Yun was killed by the greedy servant with uneven rewards and punishments, and all the ministers in the court supported Feng Bao to inherit the throne.

In this story, after the Later Yan Empire was in the western Liaoxi region, its internal rebellions and coups continued. This is entirely because the Xianbei Murong Department has basically completed the sinicization. However, these rebellions and coups have achieved some results to a greater or lesser extent, and the reason for this is that the reigning Houyan Emperor's ability to govern is too low, and it belongs to the level that the mud cannot support the wall. Among them, Murong Xi was even more obsessed with women to the extent of opening the coffin and raping the corpse, which is simply outrageous, this kind of behavior is incomprehensible to our people today, not to mention the subordinates of the Xianbei Murong Department who had basically completed the sinicization at that time.

As the gravedigger of the Houyan Empire, Feng Ba's background is very similar to Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of Sui, who completely ended the blood type period of ethnic integration, and they are all Huhua Han people produced in the social background of ethnic integration, so we can also see that the Houyan Empire, which is the main tribe of the Xianbei Murong Empire, has completely lost the need to exist, because the main tribe of the Houyan Empire has basically completed the sinicization, and it can be called the Sinicized Hu people, when there is no military attack by nomads outside the Houyan Empire. Its interior can no longer resist the infiltration of the Han ancestors. Therefore, Feng Ba, a Han Chinese from Huhua, succeeded in replacing the Later Yan Empire and established the Northern Yan regime.

We can completely regard the establishment of the Northern Yan regime as a regional attempt at the end of the bloody period of national integration, or a microcosm, and the establishment of the Northern Yan regime has guiding significance for the end of the entire period of the Sixteen Kingdoms and even the Northern Dynasties. Because the Xianbei Murong Department entered the Central Plains region relatively early, so by the end of the Sixteen Kingdoms period, its degree of sinicization was relatively high, and even said that there was no difference with the Han ancestors at that time, even if the Xianbei Murong Department returned to his hometown Liaohe River Valley, but the Xianbei Murong tribe who had developed the habit of settlement could no longer control the fate of their own power, so Feng Ba, as a Huhua Han people, had the characteristics of both nomadic people and Han ancestors, and it could best represent the characteristics of the people in the Yan Empire after this period, and the founding monarch of the Northern Yan regime, Feng Ba, had certain military talent and political ability, so he naturally replaced the Later Yan Empire.

The establishment of the Northern Yan regime provided a very important experience and a relatively ideal model for the change of dynasty for the later generations of Huhua Han people to end the bloody period of ethnic integration. Of course. Because the Northern Yan regime was a small regime in the Liao River valley after all, its overall national strength could not be compared with the Central Plains Dynasty, so once the Central Plains Dynasty was in its heyday, the Northern Yan regime also died. The peaceful replacement of the political power established by the Huhua Han people with the Sinicized nomads became the most important political means to change the dynasty in the final completion of the bloody period of ethnic integration marked by the Northern Dynasties.

Therefore, although the Northern Yan regime is extremely small, it has a great influence on the future historical process and is of great significance.

With the demise of the Houyan Empire, the Xianbei Murong Ministry, which was dominant in the Central Plains and the heroes of the year, gradually withdrew from the stage of history, but in the land of Qilu, there is still a remnant of the Southern Yan regime established by the Xianbei Murong Ministry, and as we said before, the Nanyan regime is actually a return to the Xianbei Murong Ministry, which is about to disappear in the long river of history. But at this time, the Xianbei Murong Department has basically completed the sinicization, and the Southern Yan regime exists between two powerful dynasties, whether it is the sinister external living environment, or the internal Hu and Han contradictions, any change is the inducement for the long-term existence of the Southern Yan regime, so the performance of the Xianbei Murong Department on the historical stage is about to come to an end.

Although the Tuyuhun regime established by the Xianbei Murong tribe we talked about has existed in Qinghai until the Tang Dynasty, because Tuyuhun has already drawn a clear line with the Xianbei Murong tribe and parted ways, and Tuyuhun has been constantly integrating with the nomads in the northwest region when it is developing and growing, and a new ethnic group has long been formed, which can no longer be compared with the Xianbei Murong tribe, so Tuyuhun has formed a new nation in the strict sense. It's just that it will have a certain intersection with the Xianbei Murong Department in terms of blood, and the customs and language have long been far from the Xianbei Murong Department. In fact, in ancient times, people could no longer distinguish the relationship between Tuyuhun and Xianbei Murong Tribe, and the names of the Xianbei Murong tribe in Qinghai were all replaced by their national name Tuyuhun. Only the relevant historians know that Tuyuhun originated from the Xianbei Murong Department.

Let's look back at the fall of the Houyan Empire now, it seems that everything is so natural, first the Emperor of the Later Yan Empire, Murong Bao, was killed by the rebel Lan Khan, and Murong Sheng killed Lan Khan to inherit the throne, after Murong Sheng was killed, the nobles of the Xianbei Murong Department elected Murong Xi to inherit the throne, during the reign of Murong Xi, the sinicization of the Xianbei Murong Department has been basically completed, because the rulers of the Later Yan Empire, Murong Bao and Murong Sheng, were killed in rebellions and coups one after another, But the masterminds who really launched the rebellion and coup d'état ended in failure, they instead made wedding clothes for Murong Sheng and Murong Xi, although the inheritance of the Later Yan Emperor had a strong bloody atmosphere, but it also ensured that it was passed down from generation to generation among the nobles of the Murong Ministry, until the desolate Murong Xi was killed, Murong Yun, who was promoted to the throne of the Emperor of the Later Yan Empire by Feng Ba, a Huhua Han man, was only an adopted son of Murong Bao, and he had no connection with the Xianbei Murong Department in blood.

In fact, strictly speaking, Murong Yun is also a Huhua Han person, but after all, he has the aristocratic surname of the Xianbei Murong Ministry, and it is really appropriate to use Murong Yun as a transitional stage of the transition from the Later Yan Empire established by the Xianbei Murong Department to the Northern Yan regime established by the Huhua Han people.

You know, at that time, there was no distinction between the Northern Yan of the Later Yan, and the names of the regimes established by the Xianbei Murong Department and the Han people of Huhua were all called Yan, and our later historians added prefixes to the names of these regimes for the convenience of the name, so it can be seen that the Yan regime established by the Xianbei Murong Department went to extinction, which was already a matter of great attention, and even when Murong Yun was unexpectedly killed by the guards, Feng Bao was actually elected as the king of Yan by the ministers of the Yan regime established by the Xianbei Murong Department. It can be seen that no one in this period regarded the bloodline of the Xianbei Murong Department as the same thing. It can be seen that the national characteristics of the Xianbei Murong Department have long disappeared in the process of sinicization, and the cohesion and centripetal force of its nation are impossible to talk about, so the Houyan Empire established by the Xianbei Murong Department has reached the point where the wall is falling and everyone is pushing it.

Let's take a look at Murong Yun's killing, the history books record that after Murong Yun became the emperor of the Houyan Empire, because he was not confident in his succession, he often rewarded the people around him, and his close attendants left the class, Taoren was greedy by nature, and he was not satisfied that he got less rewards than others, so he stabbed Murong Yun to death, I am actually skeptical about this matter, Murong Yun is an emperor after all, without the instigation and instruction of the mastermind behind the scenes, I speculate that the mastermind behind Murong Yun's killing was Feng Ba, or Feng Ba's supporters bought the guards to kill Murong Yun, and Feng Ba then took over the Houyan Empire established by the Xianbei Murong Department with peace of mind as a counterrebel, this explanation should be the closest to the reality in history.

In fact, after Feng Bao launched a rebellion and killed the absurd Houyan Emperor Murong Xi, the power of the Houyan Empire was all in the hands of Feng Ba, and Feng Ba's introduction of a Murong Yun as the Houyan Emperor was completely a political performance modeled after the usurpation of the Central Plains DynastyOf course, this may be the instruction of Feng Ba, who has become the king of Yan, to the historians of the current dynasty, or it may be that the Han ancestors and historians of later generations deliberately did it due to national sentiments, and it is impossible for us to know what the historical truth is. However, for the regime established by the nomads who ended the sinicization by the Huhua Han people, it is really the most ideal end mode for the nomads to complete the national integration.

From the Northern Yan regime replacing the Houyan Empire to control the western Liaoxi region, we see that at the end of the Sixteen Kingdoms period, the people in the northern land of China were composed of Sinicized Hu people and Huhua Han people, among which there must be more Hu people in Huhua than Sinicized Hu people, but whether it is Huhua Han people or Sinicized Hu people, they are the ancestors of our Chinese nation, and the Han ancestors who lived in the Central Plains for generations in the historical stage before the Western Jin Dynasty have become a thing of the past. The crowd composed of the Sinicized Hu and the Huhua Han has become the new master of this hot land, because the core culture of Chinese culture is still dominating the values of the newly formed group, so the newly formed group of people still calls themselves the Chinese nation, but at this time the Chinese nation has changed greatly in terms of political, cultural and etiquette systems.
