In fact, many scholars throughout the Tang Dynasty had this idea. What? Is it better to be a centurion than a scholar? , what? Report to you on the golden platform and support Yulong to die for you? , what? You have a pen, but you can't ask for it? Wait, everyone is sighing that they are going to make contributions to the battlefield. The reason for this is that a Lingyan Pavilion was set up during the Zhenguan period, in which the portraits of 24 founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty painted by the famous painter Yan were hung for future generations to mourn. This is a great honor.
Influenced by novels and film and television works such as The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties, many people are most familiar with the history of Sui and Tang Dynasties, such as Cheng He Qin. In addition, now everyone likes to regard Qin He as a keeper, so some TV dramas also praise Qin very much, saying that he is the first hero of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, Qin is indeed one of the twenty-four outstanding figures in Lingyange, but he only respects the last one.
Lingyan Pavilion was built by Li Shimin in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty to commemorate the heroes who fought the world with him. Twenty-four founding heroes were selected by * *, inscribed by calligrapher Chu Suiliang and painted by painter Yan. Every portrait is as big as a real person Although some people joined the royal family in the Tang Dynasty, on the whole, Lingyange only mentioned the first 24 people.
Qin famous Joan of Arc, whose real name is Uncle Bao, is called "Brave and Good at Fighting". He likes to charge first, ranking twenty-four in the heroes of Lingyange, and he is the last one. As for why he came last, the reason is simple, because his contribution is only so great.
But if we want to say credit, the credit here is not only the credit obtained by the Tang Dynasty in cultivating the world, but also the credit that Li Shimin helped him succeed in the struggle for the emperor after the Tang Dynasty unified the world. Among them, the first one is called Gongsunchang Wuji, and Sun Chang Wuji is the elder brother of the eldest grandson queen, that is, Li Shimin's elder brother. He is also a good friend of Li Shimin and a good uncle of Li Zhi, Tang Gaozong. He was the most trusted person in Li Shimin's life.
Actually, Li, what did he say? What about Wan Huhou, a scholar? It is not completely accurate, because among the 24 heroes, the top six are not military commanders, and the top military commanders are Wei Chijingde in the seventh place and Excavate in the eighth place. Wei Chijingde ranked ahead of Li Shimin, not because he made great contributions on the battlefield, but because he ranked first in the Xuanwumen Revolution, which played an irreplaceable role in the successful registration of Li Shimin.
Li Jingze was the first person in the Tang Dynasty who made great achievements except Li Shimin himself, so he ranked second among military commanders, and civil servants such as Wei Zhi, Fang and Du Ruhui were all ahead of them. Later, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty sealed the new heroes into Lingyan Pavilion, and finally the number of Lingyan Pavilion exceeded 100.
