Chapter 314: After Reading the History of the Tang Dynasty in One Breath (8)

In 860, Tang Yizong Li Yizong's extravagance and extravagant banquets led to internal political corruption and people's suffering, and the Tang Dynasty lost the glory of the Xuanzong period.

In 873, Tang Yizong Li Yi died. Subsequently, the eunuch Tian Lingzi and others supported his son Li Yi as the emperor, which was for Tang Yizong.

In 875, Wang Xianzhi's uprising broke out, and society was in turmoil.

In 878, Huang Chao inherited Wang Xianzhi's will and became the leader of the rebel army.

By 880, Huangchao's rebel army approached Chang'an, forcing the eunuch Tian Lingzi to flee to Sichuan with Tang Yizong.

In 882, Zhu Wen, who was stationed in Tongzhou, chose to surrender to the Tang army and was given the name Zhu Quanzhong by Tang Xizong. however

In 884, the rebel army was forced to withdraw from Chang'an under the counterattack of the Tang Dynasty officials, and Huang Chao also chose to commit suicide.

In 885, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty returned to Chang'an. However, in 888, Tang Emperor Li Yi died. In the same year, Li Ye, the younger brother of Tang Xizong, was proclaimed emperor by the eunuch Yang Fugong, that is, Tang Zhaozong.

In 903, Zhu Wen's strength gradually grew and he became the overlord of the Central Plains. He eventually took control of the Tang dynasty, making Tang Zhaozong his puppet.

In 904, Zhu Wen killed Tang Zhaozong Li Ye, and in the same year, he let Tang Zhaozong's ninth son, Li Ji, who was only 13 years old, ascend the throne as Emperor Wai of Tang.

In an attempt to usurp the Tang dynasty, in 905, Zhu Wen brutally murdered about 30 ministers overnight at the White Horse Station in Huazhou and threw their bodies into the Yellow River. This is the "Disaster of the White Horse Station" that shocked the world.

Finally, in 907, Zhu Wen forced Emperor Li Jichan of the Tang Dynasty to give himself the throne, set himself up as emperor, and changed the name of the country to Liang. Since then, the Tang Dynasty, which had enjoyed the country for 289 years, officially collapsed, and the whole of China officially entered the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms. 》

The people of various dynasties watched the video on the canopy, and their hearts were full of depression.

They remembered the poem again: "Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer".

The rise and fall of the dynasty, they, the people, cannot grasp it, they can only go with the flow.

But the rise and fall of dynasties is related to their lives.

When the dynasty is prosperous, they can also get rid of it and make their lives better.

When the dynasty declined, they faced not only harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, but also natural and man-made disasters.

Man-made disasters, in particular, can make a place not exist.

There was no way for them to stop them, so they had to flee into a deserted place to take refuge.

Scholars from various dynasties watched the videos on the canopy, and they were also very sad.

Although they were scholars, they also faced war in the war-torn years.

There is a very good saying, "When a show meets a soldier, it is unclear to be reasonable."

And when they were in war, they were not like that.

They prefer a stable society, and only then will they be respected, and they will be admitted to the imperial examination and become the envy of everyone.

Qin Dynasty.

Qin Shi Huang looked at the video on the canopy, and his heart was extremely sad.

This grief was not due to the demise of the powerful Tang Dynasty, but the fact that each dynasty ended in war.

He had unified the Six Kingdoms and understood that only war could bring peace.

But at the end of each dynasty, the emperor's arrogance and lasciviousness really made him sad.

From the first dynasty of China to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the demise of which dynasty was not the cause planted by such an emperor.

So much so that in the later part of the dynasty, the people continued to revolt because of continuous oppression and natural disasters, and at the same time, what made Qin Shi Huang heartbroken was that Great Qin did not escape this rule.

And compared with the Tang Dynasty broadcast on the canopy, Daqin is even more concentrated outbreak.

After all, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were too long, and the continuous growth of the country made the whole of China have been torn apart, and there is not enough sense of identity.

Although the Qin Dynasty unified the Six Kingdoms, let China be unified again.

Even in order to integrate the Chinese people, he even wrote books and books on the same track, but after all, the time was still too short, and he laid the root of the curse for the Qin Dynasty.

Han dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, looked at the video on the canopy and watched a powerful dynasty go to an end, and he was furious.

Although only Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty made him admire, the strength of this dynasty still inspired Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

The big man he wants, why not?

Let those Xiongnu and the three or six countries of the Western Regions also respect the Han Dynasty.

That's why he prevented the Han and the Xiongnu from continuing to make peace, and the result of making peace again and again let Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty know that in exchange for peace in this way, it would only make those Xiongnu think that the Han was weak and could be bullied.

He ordered Huo Qubing and Wei Qing to attack the Xiongnu, although it was also fruitful, but it was far from Li Shimin's achievements.

This is not that the strength of the Han Dynasty is weaker than that of the Tang Dynasty, but that the technological development of the Han Dynasty does not go to the Tang Dynasty.

The materials needed to attack the Xiongnu emptied the treasury of the Han Dynasty.

It was not until the appearance of the canopy that the Han Dynasty ushered in a leap and bounds of development, giving Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the confidence to accomplish such a great cause.

It's just that the end of the year is approaching, and the weather is freezing.

Although good news came from the Western Regions from time to time, it still made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che very worried, and he was also very afraid that his beloved general Huo Qu would die young as said in the sky.

After thinking about it, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, wrote a secret decree and sent it to the Western Regions quickly.

Three Kingdoms period.

Cao Cao watched the video on the canopy, and he was more angry in his heart.

Other dynasties perished, at least there was the dictatorship of eunuchs, the emperor was arrogant and lascivious, and the ministers were corrupt.

How did he get to the Wei State, and he was directly stolen by Sima Yi.

You must know that he didn't know how much effort he made for this country, and even many of his beloved generals died on the battlefield.

This is not only the result of his life's hard work into someone else's wedding dress, but also the generals and strategists who follow him.

Such a result is really difficult for him to accept.

Ever since the Tianmu appeared, he knew what Sima Yi had done, and even directly eradicated him and his forces.

But without Sima Yi, wouldn't there be anyone else?

After all, there has never been a shortage of careerists in China since ancient times, let alone those who want to sit on the throne.

All he can do is to make the Wei State stronger, make the Cao family stronger, and let those careerists only be loyal to his Cao family, so that the Wei State will not go back to the old path.

And since the appearance of the canopy, Cao Cao has seen the vastness of this world, how can he rest assured that he only unifies China.

He also wanted to open up more territory, so that those barbarian territories would also become the land of China since ancient times.

Liu Bei saw the video on the canopy, and originally thought that Liu Chan was extremely unpleasant to be An Legong, but suddenly felt that Liu Chan was okay.

Especially these emperors in the late Tang Dynasty, they were not even as good as one ten-thousandth of Liu Chan of his family.

If there is such an emperor in Shu, I am afraid that he will be broken by the generals of Wei after his death, then there is a figure like Zhuge Liang who is peaceful and wise and close to the demon, I am afraid that he will not be able to resist.

So he called Liu Chan and began to teach him well, hoping that after his death, he would be even better.

I also hope that he will be able to hold the territory of Shu when the time comes, so that the bloodline of the Liu family will last forever.

Sui Dynasty.

Yang Guang looked at the video of the canopy, and he laughed.

He didn't expect that Li Yuan, who stole his country, would end up like this.

In Yang Guang's view, this is a very happy thing.

As for the incomparably mediocre emperors in the later dynasties, corruption among the officials, and even those eunuchs could be eunuchs, which was normal in Yang Guang's opinion.

If this had not happened, how could a dynasty have died so easily?

As for the uprising of those people, this is simply beyond the power of Yang Guang's opinion.

That's just an ignorant people, how can they overthrow the court?

Li Yuan looked at Yang Guang, who was laughing, and he felt Yang Guang's ridicule of him.

However, he is now only a courtier of the Great Sui, not the founding monarch of the Tang Dynasty.

He could only endure Yang Guang's ridicule, and secretly made a decision in his heart that when the time was ripe, he must overthrow the Great Sui Dynasty.

After all, if he didn't overthrow the Sui Dynasty, it would be just that the Li family would always be suppressed by the imperial court.

At that time, don't say that he, the Duke of Tang Guo, is a member of his Li family, and his life will also be in danger.

Li Shimin, who was standing next to Li Yuan, did not watch the video of Heaven.

He is still struggling in his heart, how to explain to his childhood sweetheart Changsun when he goes back.

He had sworn to his childhood sweetheart a long time ago that he would marry her when he grew up.

But now His Majesty's marriage gift completely disrupted his plan, and Li Shimin didn't know how to talk to her.

After thinking about it for a long time, he could only sigh and decided to tell the truth.

After all, His Majesty's marriage can't be hidden, and if he doesn't tell the truth, in the end, his childhood sweetheart will stay away from him.

Tang dynasty.

Li Shimin looked at the video on the canopy, and his heart was very complicated.

The Anshi Rebellion during the period of Tang Xuanzong Li Longji made the entire Tang Dynasty turn from prosperity to decline, which made him psychologically prepared.

But when he really saw that the dynasty he had established was going to perish like this, Li Shimin still expected that all this was fake.

After all, he is the Khan of the Heavens, the monarch of the world, and he has paid countless blood and sweat for the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.

But when the Tang Dynasty really perished, he was powerless to stop it, and he couldn't stop it.

After all, from the establishment of Datang to the demise of Datang, it has experienced a history of nearly 300 years.

Even if he does these measures now, they will eventually be abandoned by future generations.

He really wanted to beat the crown prince Li Chengqian again, but thinking about Li Chengqian who was crying just now, his heart softened.

Although I don't know why Li Chengqian failed to inherit his throne, this is already miserable enough, how can he beat him again to vent.

And Li Chengqian is the son of him and the eldest grandson queen, and he can't deal with it if he fights too much, after all, it is the eldest grandson queen he loves deeply.

Cheng Yanjin watched the video on the canopy, and saw that Li Shimin didn't have the idea of beating Li Chengqian, and felt a secret pity in his heart.

Originally, he wanted to secretly attack Li Chengqian and punch Li Chengqian a few times to vent his anger, but he didn't expect Li Shimin to make no move.

Other civil and military ministers are also like Cheng Biting Jin, but they are courtiers after all, so they can only act secretly.

can't be like Li Shimin, who can beat Li Chengqian at will to remove the anger in his heart.

Li Chengqian saw in the sky that the Tang Dynasty established by his father had actually perished, and he hurried to the palace of Empress Changchun to seek refuge.

Li Longji, a descendant of later generations, was only when he was old, and he was beaten up when he let the Tang Dynasty turn from prosperity to decline, so if he saw the destruction of the Tang Dynasty on the canopy, he was afraid that he would be even more ruthless.

At the same time, he secretly made up his mind in his heart that his throne could only be his own in the future.

Only in this way can you be worthy of being beaten! It can also change the history of the Tang Dynasty.

Song dynasty.

Zhao Kuangyin looked at the video on the canopy, and he also recalled the past.

He was born in such a chaotic era.

At that time, people were like mustard, and even the emperor could die on the streets the next day.

It wasn't until Guo Rong established the Hou Zhou that the whole of China slowly had order again, and people's lives were not like mustard.

Later, he established the Great Song Dynasty in a yellow robe, which opened a new era and returned most of the old land of China to unification.

It was precisely because of the constant wars during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period that he made a national policy of emphasizing literature over military force.

It's just that he overestimated himself, and he also overestimated his descendants.

He didn't expect that in the 16 states of Yanyun, so many emperors of the Great Song Dynasty would not be able to recover.

Even because of the national policy formulated by him, the strength of the army of the Great Song Dynasty became weaker and weaker, so that the entire Song Dynasty was in a state of sending "New Year's coins" for peace.

Since future generations cannot count on it, then he will bear all this.

He wanted to change the future Great Song Dynasty, so that the Great Song Dynasty would not be called "Great Send-off" by later generations on the canopy.

Zhao Zhen looked at the video on the canopy, and his heart was very heavy.

Everything that happened in the last years of the Tang Dynasty not only happened in the Tang Dynasty, but also happened in every dynasty.

Whether it is the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty in the history books, or the Han Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty in the sky, how can this be the case.

This is not the law of history, but the dictate of human nature.

All he can do is to continue to reform, let the new policies continue to live for the Great Song Dynasty, and even open up a new era.

But how can it be so easy to open up a new era, it takes generations of dedication.

It wasn't until the explosion mentioned on the canopy that there was a slight possibility of changing the historical laws of the dynasty.

At the same time, Zhao Zhen was glad that there was a canopy in the sky, otherwise he was afraid that he would have given up on the Qingli New Deal, and he would not have attacked Xixia and recovered the Hexi Corridor.

And if the Great Song Dynasty did not have the Hexi Corridor, there would be no place to raise horses, and there would be no way to fight the Liao State.

As for the recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, it is just more impossible.

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the video on the canopy, he remembered the end of the Ming Dynasty on the canopy, and the emperor at that time was not like this.

The dictatorship of eunuchs, the corruption of hundreds of officials, and the emperor ignored the government.

So that no one manages natural disasters, and even if someone goes to the book, they just want to make money from it.

Even if Zhu Youzhen is an outlier, he will not be able to return to heaven in the end.

However, all this is enough, what made Zhu Yuanzhang most sad was the people at that time.

After all, he was born as a beggar, so how could he not know the difficulty of the people's survival at that time.

Otherwise, the capital of the Ming Dynasty would not have been attacked by those peasant rebels, which eventually led to Zhu Youzhen hanging himself in the coal mountain, and the Jiannu in the north became the master of the Central Plains.

But now all this has not happened, and his Ming has discovered the New World, believing that everything will change. (End of chapter)
