Li Ke, the third son of Li Shimin, introduced.

Li Ke (6 19-653), the third son of Li Shimin and the daughter of Yang Di. And the same mother and brother, Shu Wang Li Cheng. His four sons: Li Ren (Li), Wei Li, Kun Li and Li Xuan. According to historical records, since the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong often called it a kind of self-nature. Since the fame is high, it is very emotional. "And the emperor of the New Tang Book said," Does the public follow people with evil? Besides, I am an English fruit. If I protect my uncle, I don't know. " Obviously, Li Shimin is still full of praise for this son. Among Li Shimin's sons, Li Ke is the most like Emperor Taizong, the most skillful, and the most prestigious among ministers and people.

In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, because of Wang Qi's rebellion against Li You, the criminal went to war with Ji Cheng, found out that Prince Li Chenggan had rebelled, and Prince Li Chenggan was abolished. At this time, the "Yin Ruins" established the King Tai, but because of Wuji's "solid pursuit", Li Zhi was appointed the King of Jin, and because of Taizong's face. Cheng Gan said:' I am a prince, what else can I ask for? However, for Thailand, he and his courtiers made special efforts to find a way to protect themselves. People who don't show off teach ministers to do bad things. Today, if Thailand is the prince, it is said that it is within its limits. "Taizong said:' Cheng Gan's words are also. If I stand up for Thailand, I am the position of the Chu army, Lee Tae, Cheng Gan, Wang Jin does not exist; Jin Wang Li, Tai * * * can take care of it. "Is especially too will be a prison, so the king of jin. However, because Li Zhiren, who was suspected to be the King of Jin, was weak, he wanted to replace Li Ke, the King of Wu, but he was opposed by Sun Chang Wuji and gave up.

Li Ke was impeached and dismissed from office for hunting in the Francisco in the eleventh year of Zhenguan. When Li Ke returned to the throne in the twelfth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong made the following dialogue to Shu Ke: "I hope your majesty will show all nations are right. As you are close to home, you can only send it to the screen. You can think of the way of bridge and catalpa and the virtue of kindness and harmony. Rule the country with righteousness, rule the country with courtesy, and be cautious. In this way, the rocks will be consolidated and the city will be protected forever. Loyal to the monarch and ministers outside, filial to the father and son inside, be self-motivated and renew yourself. You violated your knee. What is your sad love? If you want to leave a treasure, you must be arrogant and extravagant. Therefore, I call this court training. "

At that time, Tang Taizong's psychology was unknown to outsiders, but he still had a good impression on Li Ke's sentence "You violated your knees and fell in love with him".

Li Ke's lineage of Emperor Yangdi is a delicate issue, which can be made clear in one or two sentences.

As for Sun Chang Wuji, the great-uncle at that time, he was regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh. If he hadn't strongly opposed Li Ke being a prince at that time, I'm afraid the history of the Tang Dynasty would be rewritten. Li Zhi acceded to the throne, Sun Chang Wuji came to power, and later development became more and more unfavorable to Li Ke. Later, by virtue of his power, he first tried to establish Prince Jong Li, then killed Li Ke, the king of Wu, and exiled Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia.

History: Li Ke committed suicide in Chang 'an on February 2nd, 2004 at the age of 34.

At this point, Sun Chang mowgli thus cleared all obstacles to monopolizing state affairs. As for later, after Wu Zetian came to power, she did the same thing, framing Sun Chang, the prince's maternal uncle, for rebellion. That's another story, so I won't go into details. The imperial court in the Tang Dynasty was a river of blood. As long as it is related to power, few people can get away with it.

[Post-evaluation]

Li Keying, Li Zhi, a jerk, knows his son better than his father. However, when he listened to Sun Chang's promise, he was smart all his life and ignorant for a while. Mao Zedong

More than 600 words in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty are devoted to Li Ke, and a large part of it is about his "official experience": first he was named King of Changsha, then Hanwang, and soon he was named King of Shu, then King of Wu, and finally he died and was renamed King Yu. He spent most of his life in other parts of Beijing, which is called. Why is this happening? Li Shimin told his courtiers the truth. "It's not that I don't want to be around Ke often, but that the throne of the prince has been taken, so that he can be an official elsewhere, so that even if I die, their brothers will not kill each other." The emperor said to the left and right, "I don't want to share? However, I have already made a decision to make the outside world a screen. After I am a hundred years old, my brothers have no dangerous worries. " )

This shows that Li Shimin prefers Ke Li, and even once thought that he was like himself and was the perfect successor in his mind. "Old Tang Book" said: "But he is a gifted scholar, and Emperor Taizong often calls himself Class One." The popularity and reputation are very high, and it is very material. "The Book of the New Tang Dynasty not only holds that" you are good at riding and shooting, but also talented in civil and military affairs ",but also records Li Shimin's words to Sun Chang Wuji," Do you want to be evil without yourself? "Besides, I am an English fruit. If I protect my uncle, I don't know. " (Sun Chang Wuji, didn't you take Li Ke as a nephew? In fact, Li Ke is as brave and fearless as I am. Maybe I can treat you like an uncle and protect you in the future. )

But Sun Chang's words didn't impress the infinite. In the end, Li Shimin did not choose Li Ke as his successor, but made his eldest son, Li Zhi, the grandson of Sun Chang Wuji, emperor, which doomed Li Ke's later tragedy.

Before Li Shimin's death, Sun Chang turned Wuji into an orphan minister. Naturally, he took special care of his nephew, Emperor Li Zhi. Taking care of a specific action is to help Li Zhi suppress the rebellion and eliminate dissidents. In Li Zhi for four years, Fang's son Fang and his cuckolded wife, Princess Gaoyang, who really loved him, tried to rebel and was discovered by the court. Sun Chang Wuji not only killed Fang and Levin, but also killed Li, the king of Jing, and Li Ke, the king of Wu at that time, which was called "the best in the world". Of course, Li Ke is not convinced. "When he died, he shouted,' The country has spirit, and the family is ruined!' ""is to curse Sun Chang promise don't die a natural death, the whole family is dead. Later, it did come true. Sun Chang Wuji was forced to commit suicide by Wu Zetian after preventing Li Zhili from becoming a queen. Fortunately, family members were only exiled to the frontier, not extinct.

Apart from Li Ke's advantages and misfortunes, did this history book talk about his shortcomings or his ambition to usurp the throne? Also, in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin once wrote a letter to Li Ke, warning him to observe the etiquette system, keep his duty and not entertain foolish ideas. ("you are just a pro-Mao, and you still want to do so many royal things, and you should control things with righteousness and your heart with courtesy." Outside is the monarch and minister, and inside is the father and son. Today, when you kneel, you will not be left behind, but you will be left behind. This shows that Li Ke did show the clue that he wanted to be the Crown Prince and inherit the throne. Compared with Li Zhi, who is weak and incompetent, it is not surprising that Li Ke, who is both civil and military, is very appreciated by his father. All blame him for not having such a good uncle as Sun Chang Wuji.

As for a friend's research, Li Jue, the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period (that is, Li Yu's father, a great poet, and the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty) was the grandson of Li Ke for generations, worshiping Li Ke as "filial piety to the emperor" and finally realizing Li Ke's dream of being an emperor. This is a real misunderstanding, because Li Bian recognized this ancestor as Li Ke, the fourth son of the Spring Calendar, Tang Xianzong, not Li Ke, the son of Li Shimin.

Li Ke, the king of Wu, was the third son of Li Shimin, the emperor Taizong, and his mother was his daughter. However, the qualification of natural emperor was highly valued by Emperor Taizong. Just because his mother is the daughter of Emperor Yang Di, he can only miss the throne of the emperor. But slowly, he saw this very deeply and thoroughly, so he could make a decisive decision, determined to abstain from sex, stay away from Chang 'an, the center of power, and become a king of Wu in the remote south of the Yangtze River. However, in the end, he was unjustly imprisoned in the rebellion of the house inheritance.

In the history books, Ke is described as a temperament middleman who is "interested in things and feelings".

But he is a gentle and firm man who grew up in court. He is descended from the extremely extravagant Emperor Yang Di. He is a born prince and grandson. He has the most extraordinary temperament. His only handle is his close relationship with his sister Princess Gaoyang. In the end, this emotional ambiguity was exploited by Sun Chang's infinite authoritarian politics. Therefore, the new and old books in the Tang Dynasty were very unfair to Prince Li Ke, saying that the eldest grandson's slaughter of Li Ke was "the best in the world" and "the best in the world".

Li's genealogy named Li Ke, the third son of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, and attached a water letter (imperial decree) naming Li Ke as the king of Wu, listing Li Ke's 46 generations of descendants from the Tang Dynasty to the end of the Republic of China. The outline is clear, and evolution and migration are well recorded from generation to generation. So in the spectrum, Li Ke is the ancestor of this Li family.
