What kind of emperor was Li Shimin?

Why should we in China be so contemptuous of such a great hero? What kind of emperor was Li Shimin in history?

In my opinion. Li Shimin is a real lean generation, and Genghis Khan is also excellent, but overall, it is not as good as Li Shimin. Excuse me, which emperor in history has excellent literary skills and even calligraphy skills? Genghis Khan's martial arts are brilliant, but he always appears only as a military genius. Kangxi is known as the first emperor through the ages, but his tolerance is too far away. Needless to say, Zhao Kuangyin was very brave, but the Song Dynasty he left behind was poor and weak. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was brilliant. Looking at the territory of the Han dynasty, we can see that the territory of the Han dynasty was wedge-shaped and extended to Central Asia, but civil affairs were not necessary. . . . Moreover, it is easy to kill Xi Jie, and in his later years, he killed the innocent prince. . .

Let's look at Li Shimin again. /kloc-at the age of 0/6, he was at war with Yun Dingxing, and Emperor Yang Di was besieged in Yanmen. He provided Genting with a solution to the siege of Wild Goose Gate. From then on, Jinyang took the lead, broke Xue Ju, broke Song Laosheng, broke Liu Wuzhou, broke Luoyang, and captured Wang Dou Jiande alive (Wang Dou Jiande is just a super cow), with unparalleled credit. Maybe Li Bai will fall. Others actually said that Li's contribution is as great as that of the people, and he has no historical common sense. Although Li is not a waste, nor is he as useless as Tang Shu, his talent is slightly shorter than that of fighting. He pacified Liu Heida mainly by political means, more like Wei Zhi's suggestion and Wei Zhi's pacification. Furthermore, after Tang Gaozu proclaimed himself emperor, feudalism became a prince, and Li Shimin was the general of Tiance, who was in charge of the national military forces. This is an unprecedented official position, and Li Shimin was the only one in the whole Tang Dynasty, because "the greatness of the Qin Dynasty is hard to see, and the ancient mg is hard to see" is not made up, or it is too contemptuous of the IQ of the people and the people all over the world. Let's look at a detail. In a battle, "Wang () held a knife in both hands, and killed dozens of people with his hands, and blood was spilled all over his sleeves." Can Mitchell make up such details by making up good omen all day and making up the band "Huanglong is now Mount Tai"?

Another way of saying anti-Li faction is the change of Xuanwumen, killing brothers and forcing fathers and killing all the children of Yuanji, which is extremely cruel. Obviously, I don't understand politics and history. As a mortal, such behavior is indeed cruel enough, but it is politically understandable to see such behavior. I didn't say that because he later became Emperor Rende, he should have been justified in killing his brother before. I mean, he had no choice but to make this choice. Maybe everyone thought that he could solve the problem by putting soldiers under house arrest with a glass of wine, but the situation at that time was that the then emperor Tang Yuan turned a blind eye to the struggle between his sons and even favored Yu Jiancheng (Tang Yuan was killed several times, but failed to handle it correctly). Li Shimin made a great contribution. Tang gaozu hinted that he could be emperor for many times, and then he went back on his word several times. On the contrary, he doubted the people and was too arrogant, which made Li Shimin deeply disappointed with his father. I can only find my own way (I don't want to be an emperor). In fact, the situation at that time was: according to the ancient system, the political strategy and talents constructed were reasonable; According to the sage, Li Shimin's contribution is completely reasonable, and there are not many objections. But the key lies in the ambiguity of Li Yuan's attitude, which ignited his desire for the throne and disappointed him, making Li feel insecure even in the position of prince. At the beginning of Jinyang Uprising, Li had a good relationship with him. By this time, Li had been assassinated several times and recruited literati (literary museum) to buy people's hearts. Needless to say, several military commanders who are basically bullish are people's confidants (except for Li Jing and these two super non-stick pots, Gao Wuhou made up his mind because he held an attitude of not caring about the emperor's family affairs). I have to mention Li Yuanji here. This boy is the most insidious of the three brothers. Although he is brave in fighting and knows martial arts, he is extremely narrow-minded and vicious. Because Weichi Gong's martial arts surpassed him, he sent an assassin to assassinate him (the assassin was timid and failed). Seeing that he had no advantage, he attached it upstairs first and secretly "died in the shade." Obviously, he wants to kill Shimin first and then waste it. Another time, he tried to stop Shimin Jian (of course, he didn't want to kill him, and the time was not ripe). Later, the two men came up with a radical move, and transferred the king of Qin to launch a mutiny (only once before, the soldier was caught in time, and Tang Gaozu actually scolded him), so Li Shimin couldn't bear it (besides, he still wanted to seize the office) and began to abolish the two men. If not, it must be Shimin (when someone lamented Gao Zhen's tragic hero Li Shimin), and Li Shimin's children would not be alive. Politics is politics. If one side is soft, it is bound to fail. Compare Li Shimin with other figures in history. Judy rose up, and without hesitation, he even asked the frontline soldiers to write a letter not to hurt Judy, "which made me have the name of killing my uncle." As a result, he died, but was also evaluated as pedantic by later generations (brothers and relatives kill each other, no matter what, they will be accused). Look at Yang Guang again, knowing that Dad was going to frame Yong Yang again, but he still killed Dad. It was common for a son to kill Lao Zi during the Warring States Period. Especially when going abroad, it is a tradition for a son to kill Laozi and a younger brother to kill his brother. Chu Zhuangwang, one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period, just killed his younger brother. Although Li Shimin forced his father to abdicate, the affection between father and son remained, and he had enough respect for Tang Gaozu. Later generations still have a lot of criticisms about Li Shimin's killing his brother, but politicians can't measure it with the eyes of ordinary people. In fact, if you were in your position, could you retire? Don't Li Shimin fight for the throne, he can live a stable life? Comrades, take a look at the soldiers Lan Ling and Gao Changgong. Gao Changgong made a lot of meritorious military service, and his brother advised him not to be too ungrateful. Gao Changgong said, "My family is kind, so I have to work hard." I was forced to die by my brother. I don't think he will be much more in david lee than Gauguin. Besides Genghis Khan, this guy is even worse. When he was a teenager, he shot and killed his younger brother because he competed with himself for prey. At that time, his brother was very scared and shouted, weren't we born by mother? Genghis Khan turned a deaf ear and shot his brother in the forehead. Are they not all virtues?

2 Literati talk about the people in the tomb, and the young people in the tomb are bookish! In Li Shimin.

That is to say, Emperor Taizong was lewd and married Li Yuanji's concubine Yang Fei. It's really not authentic to accept Fei Yang. After all, your brother's wife. But there is nothing wrong with lewdness. Lust is definitely not a necessary condition for the wrong country. Qi Huangong is a sex maniac. When he asked Guan Zhong how to dominate the world, he said shyly, "I am sick, I am lustful, but unfortunately I am good at farming." Can I be harmless? " I have an old problem. I like beautiful women, but unfortunately I like hunting. Won't it get in my way? ) Guan Zhong said nothing, what's wrong with that? Those who don't know the sage harm the bully, those who know the sage don't use it, harm the bully, use it to slander the villain, harm the bully, and it's okay to like beautiful women. I am greedy for money, too. Didn't Qi Huangong conquer the world with nine princes? Didn't Emperor Taizong also create the grand occasion of chastity? From the end of Sui Dynasty, when the world perished, Baishou started, and by the time of Zhenguan, it had dominated East Asia. What do people pay attention to and indulge themselves? After all, he is a feudal emperor, so let him be monogamous. Not lewd or greedy. Like Emperor Yang Di, he widely adopted all the beautiful women in the world, which made people's resentment boil. What's more, Shimin's classmates have let Imperial Secretary go home three times, and they have already taken a fancy to the daughter of a minister. As a result, Wei Zhi said that her daughter was engaged. You can't do that. Shimin was also very angry. Lao Tzu, the king of a country, married a daughter-in-law and asked him if he was engaged. As a result, the minister said no (damn, I guess it's psychological beauty, and I'm going to be a uncle soon). Wei Zhi says you are the emperor. Dare he say no? When Taizong saw the confession, he had to give up. In fact, Li Shimin is so real and a bit horny, but he can listen to people's advice and understand Dali. Although he is impulsive, he is still more rational. Then there is the problem of Wu Zetian. Emperor Taizong gave Wu Zetian luck, but there was nothing he could do. Wu Zetian is a "talent" and wants to get close to the emperor. However, Emperor Taizong vaguely saw that Wu Zetian was not an ordinary woman (as can be seen from the horse training incident). And there are rumors that Wu Shi has many days, so he sent Wu Zetian to a nun. If we don't kill her and leave a curse, we can't blame Taizong. There is already a scapegoat in front of the temple, General Li Moumou.

In fact, Emperor Taizong also had many mortal hobbies, such as his passion for horses. As we all know, the famous six horses in Zhaoling were amazed when they saw Wang's grandson riding a good horse during the King's War. As a result, Weichi Gong went to rob the horse without saying anything. Emperor Taizong said quickly, I just said that no matter how good a horse is, it can't compare with its master. As a result, Wei Chigong was so fierce that he was robbed on his own. I also like to play with birds, especially kites and eagles. When I was playing a kite, I was very excited. When Wei Zhi saw it, I quickly hid it in my arms. As a result, Wei Zhi deliberately gushed, and when Cheng Wei left, the kite was suffocated. At first, I read this great joy. Kite is a kind of raptor. Can you hide in your arms and not struggle? That guy's claws are sharp. I don't know how many wounds Li Shimin has on his arm. Imagine the arrogance of Wei Zhi and the grin of Emperor Taizong at that time. It's really funny. How lovely Li Shimin is at the moment. At this time, Li Shimin was not an emperor at all, but a constantly chauffeured who was helpless in the face of Lao shifu.

Looking at his literary talent, the highest achievement of prosperous Tang culture is represented by his calligraphy and poetry, and Li Shimin is one of the promoters of prosperous Tang culture. According to "Old Tang Book", "The sea is getting flat, and Taizong is determined to learn from the scriptures and open a museum for the world." He loves calligraphy very much, especially the works of two kings are recorded. Every time he got the king's post, he not only tried to copy it himself, but also ordered the princes to post it 500 times. His book won the essence of Xi God. In the Song Dynasty, Zhu listed Tang Taizong's calligraphy as a wonderful work, and commented: "Calligraphy is vigorous and graceful, and it is the most wonderful." Although his romantic style is not as good as that of the other calligraphers, his strength is too strong (he evaluates calligraphers of past dynasties, and "backbone" and "husband's spirit" are his characteristics. Mr. Qi Gong, who died soon, also spoke highly of his calligraphy. Books handed down from ancient times include Wenquan Ming, Jinci Ming, Screen Post and so on. The calligraphy style of the Tang Dynasty can be described as its single-handedly promoted (up and down effect). This guy is crazy about Wang Xizhi. He heard that the eloquent monk had an original Lanting, so he sent someone to suggest Xiao Yu disguise himself as a businessman and try his best to cheat him (think of the black book in Crazy Stone: grab it at will! It's funny that the king of a country is still working hard. When you die, you put the copybook on the martyr (this thing is not authentic, when you are a person. It's a little selfish. However, it is very helpless that the ancient world is not the land of kings, but the private property of the people. Staying in the world and being destroyed by the Anshi rebellion is not necessarily the case. Now some bird people clamor to dig up the Zhaoling Mausoleum and take out the Preface to Lanting Collection, while others, including a professor, advocate digging up the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. Damn it, how can such a group of people know to dig graves for their ancestors? Their poems are also full of heroism, although a little rough (this is someone else's sideline, which is understandable)
