The king now wants to subdue the world with benevolence and righteousness, so I can't surrender even more. If the king uses me, the person who betrayed his father, then how will the world view the king? ”

Liu Shouwen's words were upright and impeccable, and Zhu Wen blushed for a while when he heard this, so he suspended the siege. Liu Rengong was afraid that his son would have an accident, so he was busy asking Li Keyong in Hedong for help, but Li Keyong didn't want to meddle in things. But Li Keyong's son Li Cunqiao was very strategic, and said to his father: "I and Yan are both mortal enemies, if Yan does not exist, we will lose our strategic flank, and it will be too late to regret it." ”

Li Keyong felt justified and sent his sons Li Sizhao, Zhou Dewei and others to raid Zhu Wen's backyard, but he didn't expect that Ding, the general of the Bianjun army stationed in Luzhou, would suddenly surrender to Li Sizhao. Li Ke died of excitement, feasted to entertain Ding Hui, and during the banquet Ding Hui cried: "Although the King of Liang treats me well, he will usurp the Tang Dynasty, out of righteousness, so he descended to the king and the Kuang royal family." ”

Writing this, I really can't help but ask Ding Hui: Following Li Keyong is loyalty? Li Keyong's "Tang" and Li Shimin's Tang Dynasty are not the same thing at all, Li Keyong did not do anything that harmed the Tang Dynasty, and Zhu Wen is just "fifty steps and a hundred steps", if Ding Hui is really loyal to the Tang Dynasty, he should raise troops to denounce Zhu Wen when Li Ye was killed, what did he do earlier?

When Zhu Wen heard that Zelu was lost, he scolded Ding Hui for being a white-eyed wolf, so he had to withdraw his troops. Liu Shouwen wrote to Zhu Wen, hoping that King Liang would remember the common people in the world and distribute some food to the Cangzhou Shishu who was about to starve to death. It is said that Zhu Wen is brutal, and Zhu Wen is brutal, but which of those warlords of the same era is better than Zhu Wen? Zhu Wen was very happy to leave a large amount of grain for the people of Cangzhou.

After this setback, the morale of the Bianjun army was greatly affected, and Zhu Wen was depressed for several days. At this time, Luo Shaowei persuaded Zhu Wen that it was better to abolish the Tang Dynasty and stand on his own. So that those who oppose Zhu Wen have no excuse to oppose it. Zhu Wen did not immediately agree to Luo Shaowei, but also felt that it was time to change the flag. Even if he plays the banner of the Tang Dynasty again. Li Keyong, Wang Jian, and Yang Wu will not let themselves go. After thinking about it, Zhu Wen decided to abolish Li Ji. Build a new dynasty.

On April 18 of the fourth year of Tang Tianyou, that is, on June 1, 907 AD, Zhu Wen, the king of Liang, was officially proclaimed emperor in Bianliang, changed to Kaiping, and the country was called Daliang. Of course, in the process of becoming the emperor, it is indispensable to show the ugliness of the sycophants, what Huanglongxian, what colorful zhi, and make a fool of themselves, Zhu Wen was satisfied to be the first golden chair of the five generations. Changed his name to Zhu Huang, known as Liang Taizu in history.

After Zhu Wen called the emperor, he honored his ancestors, his father Zhu Cheng was Emperor Wenmu, and his mother Wang was Empress Zhaoyi, and he sealed the clan, because his wife Zhang had died of illness in the first year of Tang Tianyu (904 AD), and was posthumously registered as a virtuous concubine. Before his death, Zhang had bitterly persuaded Zhu Wen not to abolish Tang Zili, but Zhu Wen did not listen. However, Zhu Wen's feelings for the Zhang family have not changed. Until Zhu Wen's death, he did not set up a queen. Zhang gave birth to a son for Zhu Wen, named Zhu Youzhen, who was later Emperor of Liang.

There is no such thing as Mrs. Zhang's discipline. Zhu Wen began to indulge in sexual immorality, and he was fortunate to have hundreds of women. Ouyang Xiu scolded Zhu Wen fiercely when he was revising "The History of the New Five Dynasties", but Ouyang Xiu attributed Zhu Wen's later tragic death to a "female disaster". What do you say about "female disasters", the small ones die at home, and the big ones die in the world. The so-called "red face and troubled water" are also. However, the "female disaster" is only an external factor, and the real determining factor is the man's self-cultivation. In a feudal society, it is not fair for male rulers to cause chaos in the world, but let women carry the black pot.

The Tang Dynasty fell, but at that time the world was divided, wars were frequent, and the situation was extremely chaotic. There are two most chaotic periods in Chinese history, one is the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the other is the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, no wonder Ouyang Xiu said: "Woohoo, the chaos of the Five Dynasties is extremely large." ”

Later, the Liang Dynasty was destroyed by Li Cunxuan, and it was not until the Later Zhou Dynasty, because these three dynasties were all from the military and political system of Hedong, and they all regarded Zhu Liang as a puppet dynasty. After Zhao Kuangyin established the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyin was not from the Hedong lineage, so he recognized the orthodox status of the Liang Dynasty. But Zhu Wen's usurpation is the same as the previous Southern Dynasty Sui and Tang dynasties, if Zhu Liang is a puppet dynasty, then the Tang Dynasty usurped the throne from the hands of the Yang family Xiao'er and became a puppet dynasty? Zhu Wen is not a good thing, and the so-called "Zhengshuo of the Tang Dynasty" Li Cunqiao is simply an impostor, he can be regarded as orthodox, why can't Zhu Wen be counted?

Zhu Wen became the emperor, and the first person who was not convinced was not Li Keyong's "orthodoxy of the Tang Dynasty", nor Wang Jian, a donkey thief, but Zhu Wen's own brother Zhu Quanyu. Not long after he succeeded to the throne, Zhu Wen gambled heavily, gathered the clan to gamble, shouted and screamed around the gambling table, and there was no unity.

Zhu Quanyu had long been displeased with this younger brother, so he turned the table upside down while he was drinking, and then pointed at Zhu Wen's nose and scolded: "Zhu San, you are just a grass man, and you were a thief with Huangchao, and later the Tang Dynasty named you a festival envoy, you can be content in this life." I didn't expect you to destroy the three hundred years of Sheji in the Tang Dynasty, you are going to be sent by heaven if you do this, and our Zhu family will be destroyed in your hands sooner or later. After speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, and Zhu Wen didn't say anything for a long time.

Zhu Wen set the capital in Bianliang, and renamed Bianzhou as Kaifeng Mansion, which was also the first time in the history of Kaifeng to officially do the capital, which had a profound impact on Kaifeng to become a historical city, and later the Northern Song Dynasty built the capital here, pushing the historical influence of Kaifeng to the extreme. Chang'an, on the other hand, officially bid farewell to the glorious history of building the capital for more than a thousand years, and was demoted from a "nobleman" to a "commoner". However, because of the unique position and influence of the Tang Dynasty in history, Chang'an is still one of the four ancient capitals.

After Zhu Wen destroyed the Tang Dynasty, in all the towns of the world, except for Li Keyong, Wang Jian, Li Maozhen, Yang Wu and others who resolutely refused to recognize the Liang regime and still used the Tang Dynasty era name, others such as Ma Yin, Qian Hao, Liu Yin, Wang Xianzhi, Li Sijian and others all paid tribute to the Liang Dynasty. They don't care who is the emperor of the Central Plains, as long as he recognizes my dominion in the region. Li Keyong Wang Jian is not a loyal minister, Wang Jian is the most humiliating, he took the lead in sending a message to the world to jointly crusade against Zhu Wen, but unfortunately no one paid attention to him, there is only one reason, that is, Wang Jian is "dishonest". Sure enough, within a few months, Wang Jian proclaimed himself the Emperor of Dashu.

Seeing that those opponents were still under the banner of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Wen thought to himself, just don't do anything, kill the Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Ji, and put an end to these people's "evil thoughts". In the spring of the second year of Liang Kaiping (908 AD), Li Ji, the "King of Jiyin", died in Caozhou at the age of seventeen.

The last emperor often did not die well. Especially during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the bloody smell of "Zen Rang" was the strongest. This "tradition" continued until Juwen. The emperor who died in the real sense of Chinese history was Zhu Youlang, the emperor of Yongli in the Ming Dynasty, who was forced to die by Wu Sangui, who knew the current affairs. Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, was transformed and re-behaved, opening a new chapter in history.

In this year, the leader of the Khitan tribe in the north, Yelu Abaoji (also translated as Yelu according to Bajian), called Zhu Wen a tribute, and the Khitan was the predecessor of the famous Great Liao State in later history, and the famous general Yang Liulang of the Northern Song Dynasty guarded the three passes, and the confrontation was against this Khitan Great Liao State.

After Zhu Wen founded the country, the first thing to do was to eliminate Li Keyong, in June of the first year of Kaiping (907 AD). Zhu Wen sent Baoping Jiedu to make Kang Huaizhen marshal 80,000 Liang troops and Wei Bojun to recover Luzhou, Kang Huaizhen was eager to have this opportunity to make meritorious service, and swaggered away. As a result, the Hedong Zhaoyi Army made Li Sizhao defend without fighting, and the Liang army attacked hard for several months, but still failed to succeed.

Li Ke, the king of Jin, used to report that Luzhou was besieged, and also sent elites to relieve the siege, and several famous generals in Hedong, Zhou Dewei, Li Cunzhang, Li Siyuan, An Jinquan and others rushed to Luzhou. Zhu Wen's patience was limited, and he did not get good news for more than 20 days, so he withdrew Kang Huaizhen. Replaced by Bozhou Thorn Shi Li Si'an.

Li Si'an has some ability, and when he came to Luzhou City, Li Si'an gave an order and established a military base under the city. In an attempt to cut off the connection between the Hedong Army in the city and the Hedong Army outside the city, the Liang people called it a clamping village. Zhou Dewei couldn't let Li Si'an succeed and attacked the village day and night. Even if you can't attack it, you will be tired of the Liang army. Liang Jun didn't want to go out and die. The turtle cowered in the village to defend the war.

The first month of the second year of Liang Kaiping (908 AD). Li Keyong, the king of Jin, died of illness, and his son Li Cunqiao succeeded him as the king of Jin. Before Li Keyong died, he handed Li Cunqiao three arrows, and said through gritted teeth: "Youzhou is not destroyed, you must not go south to Tuliang, this arrow Liu Shouguang also; Yelu according to Bajian was a brother with me, but the words are still in my ears, but he is following Bianzhou, you will hate me for this, and this two arrows Yelu Abaoji also; The three arrows, Zhu Quanzhong, who plotted rebellion to destroy my country! The son can break these three arrows, and the father has no hatred in the ground. Li Cunqiao cried and worshipped. After Li Cunqiao was proclaimed emperor, he posthumously honored Li Keyong as Emperor Taizu Wu of the Tang Dynasty. However, this "Emperor Taizu Wu of the Tang Dynasty" is more than one rank worse than that Emperor Taizong Wen of the Tang Dynasty, and even the history cultivators think that Li Keyong is not very worthy of the word "Wu".

After Li Cunmiao succeeded to the throne, he felt that his reputation was still shallow, so he found his third uncle, Li Kening, the envoy of Zhenwu Junjiedu, to blow the trumpet and carry the sedan chair for himself. Li Cunqiao gave way to Li Kening: "Although the nephew is the heir of the tomb, he is only a widow, and it is not enough to be in front of him, the third uncle is the first to look at Hedong, and ask the third uncle to be the king of Jin." ”

Li Kening is not stupid or stupid, he naturally knows that Li Cunmiao is asking him to be the "trust", and insists on not accepting it: "The first king ordered you to be the king of Jin, who dares not to obey?" Then he bowed down to determine the share of the monarch and the minister. When everyone saw that Li Kening bowed his head, they didn't dare to be presumptuous, and bowed down one after another.

Not everyone is willing to worship at the feet of Li Cunqing, Li Ke can't look down on Li Cunqiao with his adopted son Li Cunqiao: "What's there, isn't it biological?" Seeing that Li Kening actually didn't eat the pies that fell from the world, he secretly scolded Li Kening for being stupid. came to Li Kening: "Brother to brother, common sense, not to mention that uncle worships nephew, and he is not afraid that the world will laugh at his uncle?" If you don't take it, you will suffer it. Li Kening disagreed at first: "Don't talk nonsense here, the Li family is loyal and filial, and the world knows it, if you fart again, I will blame you." ”

Li Kening's wife Meng Shi dreamed of becoming the princess of Jin, so she began to fan the yin wind, and Li Keyong couldn't sit still and moved his heart. Let Li Cunhao and the others prepare separately, take the opportunity to attack Li Cunxuan, and then raise the land east of the river to surrender to Zhu Wen. Li Cunhao is not very stable, this confidential event was learned by Li Cunhao's friend Shi Jingrong, Shi Jingrong was shocked, and reported to Li Cunhao quickly.

Li Cunmiao convened a meeting with his close ministers, violently conspired with Li Kening in the seat, and pretended to be pitiful: "Flesh and blood cannot be cannibalistic, for the sake of the Li family's endless bloodline, I am willing to give way to the third uncle." "The old minister Zhang Chengye disagreed first, he was Li Keyong's old minister, what did he do with Li Kening? It's not his heart. Many people also expressed their willingness to help the King of Jin eliminate rebellion, and Li Cunqiao decided to do it.

In February, Li Kening and others came to the palace to discuss matters, Li Cunqiao drank heavily, and the warriors rushed out to capture Li Kening and Li Cunhao. Li Cunqiao cried at Li Keyong: "Last time, my nephew was willing to give way to the third uncle, but the third uncle didn't want to, now he wants to harm his nephew, how can the third uncle bear to be like this!" Li Kening had nothing to say. Li Cun ordered the two to be beheaded, and gave Meng to commit suicide, a civil strife, and the ice collapsed.

Five dynasties and ten kingdoms are very popular to recognize fake sons, Zhu Wen, Li Keyong, and Wang Jian have a lot of godsons, but the most alternative is Shi Jingjiao, the forty-four-year-old Shi Jingjiao recognizes the thirty-three-year-old Yelu Deguang as his godfather...... The existence of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms is relatively short, so it looks more chaotic, but in fact, this era is also very exciting, because the time is short, so it is more exciting.

It was indeed Guo Zixing, who made a mistake, a word difference, and a mistake of 600 years......

Li Cunmiao is indeed a character, the hero of the first generation, but his ending was too unexpected, he had already successfully returned to the Han Guangwu, but it was over in less than three years, and the so-called Tang Zhongxing became a bunch of bubbles.

Li Ke used the news of his death to reach Bianliang, but Zhu Wen didn't believe it, afraid that this was a trick played by Sha Tuo'er, and planned to go to the front line to see the situation. Because Li Si'an was invincible in many battles, Liu Zhijun was transferred to replace Li Si'an as the commander-in-chief of the Luzhou front, but Liu Zhijun stayed in Tongzhou (now Dali, Shaanxi) at this time.

After repeated confirmation, Zhu Wen believed that Li Keyong had really seen God, and he breathed a long sigh of relief. In Zhu Wen's eyes, Li Cunqiao was just a half-grown child who had not dried up, and there was nothing to be afraid of, so he returned to Bianliang to escape the summer. and asked Li Si'an to temporarily take care of front-line military affairs and wait for Liu Zhijun to take over.

He thought about it easily, but unfortunately the doll that ate in his eyes, Li Cunmiao, was a powerful character, Li Cunmiao was young and vigorous, and he also wanted to be in the limelight. In April of the second year of Kaiping (908 AD), Li Cunqiao personally came to relieve the siege of Luzhou. The Hedong army marched to the camp of Huang Nianxia, about 50 miles north of Luzhou, and Li Cunqiao was wearing heavy armor, ready to go to the battlefield at any time, and ordered people to spy on the situation on the front line at any time. When Li Cunmiao found out that Liang Ying did not have a lookout post, he was overjoyed, the opportunity was too rare to miss the opportunity.

In May, heavy fog fell in the early morning of this day, and Li Cunqiao led his army to Sanchuigang (near present-day Changzhi, Shanxi) to lay in ambush, waiting for the best opportunity to attack. The fog did not dissipate until the evening, and Li Cunqiao felt that the opportunity had come, so he issued a general attack order to all his troops. Li Cunxuan led all the way to the northeast village of Boliang Camp, Zhou Dewei and Li Cunxian each went all the way, and the three roads passed together, and they went to Liang Camp to kill.
