Liang Wudi Xiao Yan (464-549), born in Li Dongcheng (now xian county Town, Danyang City, Jiangsu Province), was the founder of the Liang Dynasty in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Born in the Xiao family in Lanling. He is the 25th grandson of Xiao He, the prime minister of the Western Han Dynasty, and the son of Yin Xiaoshun, the founding emperor of the Southern Qi Dynasty. Xiao Daocheng is his uncle. Xiao Yan is a typical official second generation. Like all famous officials in troubled times, Xiao Yan showed extraordinary talent when he was young. "He is knowledgeable, easy to plan, and both civil and military." In his official career, the young ZSZSZSZ has made great achievements all the way. During the Southern Qi Dynasty, Xiao Yan served as a cupbearer in Dongge, an assistant minister in Huangmen and a secretariat in Yongzhou. He participated in the resistance against the Northern Wei Dynasty twice and was favored by Emperor Qi Ming. In the second year of Yongyuan (500 years), Xiao Yan rose up against Xiao Baojuan, who was shocked by the East, and made Xiao Baorong, the king of Nankang, emperor. The following year, Jiankang was captured. In the second year of ZTE (502), Xiao Yan accepted Xiao Baorong's "Zen position" and established the Nanliang Dynasty. Liang Wudi Xiao Yan reigned for 48 years. In the second year of Taiqing (548), the "Hou Jing Rebellion" broke out, and Xiao Yan was jailed and died in Taicheng at the age of 86.
Xiao Yan lived in right and wrong all his life. He is good at playing chess, painting and calligraphy, and is proficient in governing the country with troops. He is an absolute scholar, lean in troubled times, but he also came up with several deadly tricks to make him more and more timid until he starved to death.
success
1. After Xiao Yan proclaimed himself emperor, his early achievements were very remarkable. He learned the lesson of the demise of Qi and was very diligent. He asked the princes and nobles to cultivate their own labor, and the surplus idle land should be distributed to farmers who had no land to cultivate. He reduced rents and taxes many times to lighten the burden on farmers. After a period of development, Nanliang has emerged a prosperous and peaceful well-off situation.
2. ZSZSZSZ is famous for his frugality. According to historical records, he "won a crown in three years and a quilt in two years". He is not particular about food and clothing. He can wash his clothes several times, eat vegetables and beans, and only eat one meal a day. In this respect, Xiao Yan was the best among the ancient emperors in China.
3. Xiao Yan believed in Buddhism in his later years. Guo Zushen described it this way: "There are more than 500 Buddhist temples, which are extremely poor and magnificent. More than 100,000 monks and nuns are rich in assets, which makes monks vegetarian. Since then, Han Buddhism has formed a vegetarian tradition. Xiao Yan doesn't approach women and doesn't eat meat. He not only did this, but also asked the whole country to follow suit: "In the future, pigs, cattle and sheep are not allowed to be sacrificed to the ancestral temple, but vegetables should be used instead. "There is another saying that Xiao Yan killed countless people during the founding of the People's Republic of China. He is afraid of going to hell after death, so he doesn't eat meat. He built a temple to keep monks from eating meat, and he recited scriptures every day to get rid of his karma.
4. Xiao Yan is brilliant and a man of culture: Xiao Yan's poems and essays are excellent. In particular, his seven-character poems are quite original, and their sounds and rhymes are interchangeable. Later, Li Bai, Du Fu and others in the Tang Dynasty creatively used this poetic style and wrote many magnificent poems. Xiao Yan's pioneering work is undeniable. We appreciate his two seven-character poems:
Dongfei shrike pavilion
Northern and Southern Dynasties? Xiao Yan
Shrike swallows the west, and the weaver girl meets the weaver girl.
Whose daughter is squatting in front of the door, and her beautiful shadow is cast in the back room.
The bright moonlight shone through the window, the curtains were shining on the curtains of women, and the room was fragrant with powder.
This year, the woman will be fifteen or sixteen years old, slim, beautiful, white and beautiful.
But three springs have passed, and the flowers withered in the end. Although my daughter is lovely, she is not from her husband's family, so beautiful, who loves and sympathizes with her?
Jiangnan lane? Longdiqu
Northern and Southern Dynasties? Xiao Yan
Beauty lies in Yuntang.
Carve gold and bamboo to sleep in a jade bed.
Love is rare and bright around the red beam.
Around the red beam.
Liutaitai
Stay in the gale.
Wandering in the dark.
Xiao Yan also studied music and wrote many songs praising Buddhism.
Xiao Yan likes Go very much, and his chess skills are superb.
Xiao Yan likes painting very much, especially flowers, birds and animals.
Xiao Yan also had profound attainments in calligraphy, and he was among the best emperors who were good at calligraphy in ancient times. Xiao Yan was also the first emperor in history to highly praise Wang Xizhi's calligraphy achievements.
Gee, you see, his ability is not bragging, but he is also a wizard.
get through
1. Too obsessed with Buddhism, Xiao Yan not only entered the temple and became a monk several times, but also made the court spend a lot of money to be redeemed every time, and the treasury was hollowed out by him. In addition, he spent all his time reading the Bible and serving the Buddha, so that he had no energy to manage state affairs. Those who used it again also appeared treacherous court officials, which caused the darkness of state affairs. Xiao Yan, an old man, was opinionated and built Buddhist temples extensively, but he didn't listen to advice. "There were 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, and there were many pagodas in the misty rain." Monks who have become monks have become temple owners, which has caused chaos in the country.
2. Poor godson, ZSZSZSZ has eight sons. Xiao Tong, the eldest son, is kind, virtuous and intelligent. He was made a prince long ago. Later, a little eunuch framed Xiao Tong for murdering Xiao Yan because of personal pique, which caused Xiao Tong to be too scared to get sick and died soon. Xiaozong, the second son, is said to be the posthumous son of Hou Xiaobaojuan, a bad king in Jidong. When he grew up, he learned his life story from his biological mother Wu, and vowed to avenge his biological father Xiao Baojuan, and finally surrendered to the Northern Wei Dynasty. There is also an adopted son named Xiao. Before Xiao Yan gave birth to Xiao Tong, Xiao Yan's brothers adopted him as their son. Later, after Xiao Tong was born, Xiao Yan returned Xiao Zhengde to his brother. Xiao Zhengde, who dreams of becoming a prince, bears a grudge against this. He first defected to the Northern Wei Dynasty and then fled back to Nanliang. Xiao Yan didn't punish him and restored his knighthood, but Xiao Zhengde didn't know how to be grateful. He actually helped Hou Jing capture Taicheng from the inside and was finally killed by Hou Jing. The remaining sons are basically mediocre, each with its own ulterior motives, not to mention helping Xiao Yan run the country, but it is good to stay out of trouble.
3. Lead Hou into the room and starve to death in the palace. There was a brave soldier named Hou Jing in Gao Huan in the Eastern Wei Dynasty. He is a Jie nationality assimilated by Xianbei people. He was brave and aggressive, born with a disability in his right foot, good at riding and shooting, and had fought under Gao Huan's account, and repeatedly made meritorious military service. He was deeply appreciated and relied on by Gao Huan, but he was at odds with Gao Cheng, the son of Gao Huan. After Gao Huan's death, Gao Cheng wanted to seize the military power in Hou Jing. After Hou Jing knew it, he surrendered to the Western Wei Dynasty and Nanliang. The Western Wei Dynasty thought Hou Jing was too unreliable to accept him, but Xiao Yan of Nanliang thought it was a great bargain and wanted to accept him. Some ministers in the DPRK knew that Hou Jing was capricious and tried to dissuade him. Others say that Hou Jing's homophonic name is "the Monkey King", and if he turns his face, he will turn his face, so he can't be accepted! But Xiao Yan didn't listen. He was appointed king and general of Henan and sent troops to meet him. Later, Xiao Yan made peace with Gaocheng, but the condition was that the Liang Dynasty sent Hou Jing back to the Eastern Wei Dynasty. When Hou Jing learned about it, he killed Zhu Yijun, who was playing politics in North Korea, and launched a rebellion. The rebels marched in and finally reached Jiankang, besieging Taicheng. Initially, Xiao Yan called on all local troops and horses to come to the rescue. However, due to the different intentions of the reinforcements, after several unfavorable battles, they all stayed put and waited for success or failure, so the rebels were able to continue to besiege Taicheng. Small guarding the gate has already taken refuge in Hou Jing. Kaicheng joined the rebels and Taicheng fell. A few days later, Xiao Yan starved to death in the palace;
Nanliang, which lasted for 55 years, died a few years later. Chen Baxian, general of Nanliang, replaced Nanliang to establish Chen Nan. In 589 AD, Chen was destroyed by the Sui Dynasty, and China was finally unified.
Mao Zedong, a great man, commented that Xiao Yanshan was a student who didn't eat much and didn't approach women after middle age. But don't be smart, don't be a villain, don't be a good assistant, or even perish. "Listen to traitors and let chaos happen alone", Wu Liang has a good idea.
"Life is known everywhere, and it should be like flying snow." Things change, even the emperor can't escape the rules of this world. Finally, let's enjoy Xiao Yan's four-hour midnight song. His heart is singing. Did you find his world in Xiao Yan's songs?

The incense on the stage is in my arms, and the flowers are in the court.

I take this sympathy as a token of my gratitude.

Four summer songs

Lotus blooms in the south of the Yangtze River, and red light covers clear water.
