6. As can be seen from the Good Book of Emperor Taizong, what kind of emperor was Emperor Taizong? Li Shimin (65438+5991October 23rd-10, July 649) was the second emperor in the Tang Dynasty, and his name meant "saving the world and helping the people".

After Taizong's death, it was named as the temple. He was also a strategist, politician and calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty.

He initiated the "rule of chastity" in history. By actively eliminating the separatist forces in various places, and moderately practicing frugality, the people can recuperate, and a peaceful and prosperous society has emerged. This laid an important foundation for the later prosperity of Kaiyuan and pushed the feudal society of China to its peak.

Emperor Taizong was born in the 18th year of Kai Dynasty (599). He is the second son of Li Yuan and Queen Dou. In 6 14 ad, he married his eldest grandson, the queen.

At the end of Yang Di's great cause, Li Yuan successively served as the ambassador to appease Hedong in Shanxi, and stayed in Taiyuan, responsible for suppressing the peasant uprising in Shanxi today and guarding against Turks. Li Shimin and his father are in Jinyang (now southwest of Taiyuan). At that time, the peasant uprising was surging and intensified.

Tang Gaozu and Li Shimin saw that the Sui Dynasty was going to die. In the 13th year of Daye (6 17), they set out for Jinyang, attacked Huoyi (now Huoxian, Shaanxi) in the south, crossed the Yellow River in the west and captured Chang 'an (now xi 'an, Shaanxi). At the beginning of Taiyuan Uprising, Li Yuan took his eldest son Li Jian as the commander-in-chief of Longxi public and left leaders, and unified the left armed forces; Li Shimin was the commander-in-chief of Dunhuang people and right-wing leaders, and unified the right-wing armed forces.

After conquering Chang 'an, in order to respect the emperor, Li Yuan made Yang Di's grandson You Yang emperor and changed to Yi Ning. Gong Jin named tang gaozu king and Li Jian prince. Li Shimin was named Jing Zhaoyin and renamed Qin Guogong; Li Yuanji was made King of Qi.

In the second year of Yining (6 18), Li Shimin moved to seal Zhao Guogong. In March, Yang Di was killed.

In May, Tang Gaozu ascended the throne, with the title of Tang and Jianyuan Wude as Tang Gaozu. Tang Gaozu asked Li Shimin to be a secretary.

Soon, Li Jian was made prince, Li Shimin was made king of Qin, and Li Yuanji was made king of Qi. Since then, Li Shimin often went to war and gradually eliminated the separatist forces in various places.

Since the first year of Wude, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, personally commanded three major battles: First, he broke the Li track, pacified Xue (the son of Xue Ju), a separatist force in Longxi, and eradicated the threat from the northwest of the Tang Dynasty; 2. Defeat Song Jingang and Liu Wuzhou, recover lost ground and consolidate the rear area of the Tang Dynasty; Third, the Battle of Hulaoguan wiped out the two major separatist forces in the Central Plains, Wang and Dou Jiande Military Group, and won a decisive victory in the unified war in the Tang Dynasty. Since then, Li Shimin's prestige has been growing, especially when he entered Chang 'an after the Battle of Tiger Prison, and he was treated like a military and civilian emperor.

In October of the fourth year of Wude, he was named General, Leader of Situ and Secretary of Dongdao in Shaanxi, and the food city increased to 20,000. High-impedance also wrote a letter to the Ce Tian government to establish their own butler, thus forming a small * * * organization.

Since the change of Xuanwu Gate, the suspicion between Li Shimin and his younger brother, Prince Li, and his fourth brother, King Li Yuanji of Qi, has deepened. Ministers clashed with each other and were divided into two factions.

Pei Ji, the Prime Minister, the adviser, and General Dong Gong Wei followed Li and Li Yuanji, the adviser Du Ruhui and Fang, and the generals Qin, Duan Zhixuan and Wang Jun followed Li Shimin. Minister Sun Chang Wuji and others secretly supported Li Shimin.

General Li Jing, Xu Shiqi, Minister Yu and others remain neutral. In 626 AD, the "Xuanwumen Rebellion" was launched to capture Chang 'an, Miyagi, and Li Yuanji was killed. Later, Gaozu abdicated, and he became emperor. The next year, he changed his title to Zhenguan.

After Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, he was prepared for danger in times of peace, appointed talented people, and carried out a series of political and military reforms, which eventually led to a peaceful scene of social stability and production development. It is known as the rule of Zhenguan in history. Zhenguan rule was the most famous "ruling the world" in China's feudal era.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan (630), Emperor Taizong sent Li Jing to pacify the Eastern Turks, captured Li Jiekhan alive, and relieved the threat from the north. Nine years, pacify TuGuHun, captured its king Mu Rongfu cloud; Fourteen years later, Hou was sent to pacify the Gaochang family, where Xizhou was established, and Ding 'anxi was the capital of Jiaohe City (now Turpan West, Xinjiang). Emperor Taizong carried out a more enlightened policy towards the East Turks and the nationalities belonging to the Turks, and won their support, so he was honored as "Tiankhan".

In fifteen years, Li Daozong, King of Jiangxia, sent Princess Wencheng to Zambsongzangambu, which is closely related to Tubo, and developed the economic and cultural exchanges between Han and Tibetan nationalities. However, the war of Emperor Taizong's personal expedition to Koguryo brought disaster to the two peoples and finally came back in vain.

Emperor Taizong first made his eldest son, Li Chenggan, a prince, and later he doted on the four sons, Wang Wei and Lee Tae. Li Chenggan was afraid of catching his heir and tried to launch a coup to assassinate Lee Tae. This was unsuccessful and was abolished as Shu Ren. In order to prevent the tragedy of brother's vendetta, Emperor Taizong demoted Wang Wei and Lee Tae, and changed his ninth son, Jin Wang Li Zhi, to be the Prince, which is the future Tang Gaozong.

The rule of Zhenguan During the reign of Li Shimin, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty was strong, which was called the rule of Zhenguan. In his later years, he wrote a book "Emperor Fan" to teach the prince, summed up his life's political experience and commented on his own merits and demerits.

During his reign, he carried out the system of officers and men, the system of renting agents and the system of land equalization, and actively promoted the imperial examination system. In 630, he defeated East Turkistan and was honored as "Tiankhan".

In 64 1 year, Princess Wencheng was married to Songzan Gambu of Tubo. In 649 AD, Emperor Taizong suffered from dysentery, but the treatment eventually failed. He ordered Prince Li Zhi to represent state affairs in Jinyemen.

Li Shimin died in Hanfeng Temple in Chang 'an in July 649. Buried in Zhaoling Mountain, more than 50 miles northeast of Liquan County, Shaanxi Province, China.

Posthumous title is "Emperor Wen". Emperor Taizong was good at listening to ministers' criticisms and opinions, and Kevin·Z directly protested his mistakes more than 200 times.

Emperor Taizong was also good at calligraphy, writing tablets line by line, and was the originator of later generations. Famous works include Ming in Hot Springs and Ming in Jinci.

After his death, Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, wrote Preface to Lanting Collection as a funerary object. Throughout his life, Li Shimin was worried about how historians would comment on "the change of Xuanwu Gate" in the future, so he asked historians to read Ju Ju Zhu and Shi Lu many times, which broke the precedent that emperors in previous dynasties could not read.

Although it is recorded in historical records that Li Shimin asked for "cutting and floating, writing straight", it attracted various speculations and proofs that Li Shimin revised the two books.

7. The full translation of Ten Thoughts of Emperor Taizong:

I heard that if you want a tree to grow tall, you must make its roots stable; If you want to let the spring flow far away, you must dredge the source; If you want national stability, you must accumulate morality, benevolence and righteousness. Although I am the most ignorant, I hope that the spring water will flow far away and the roots will be unstable, but I want to attract the wind with great enthusiasm, but I want the country to be stable. I (also) know that this is impossible, besides (you) are a smart person!

The monarch holds the important functions and powers of the country. According to the important position between heaven and earth, he will respect the majesty of imperial power and maintain endless goodness forever. He will not consider thinking about danger in a comfortable environment, abstaining from extravagance and frugality, unable to be honest in morality and unable to overcome desire in temperament. This is also (like) cutting off the roots to get lush trees, blocking the source, and trying to let the spring water flow far away.

All emperors (past dynasties) undertook the great mission of heaven and made remarkable achievements without being deeply worried. After their merits were completed, their virtues began to decline. Many of them did well at first, but few of them made it to the end. Is it easy to keep the world? Because I am in deep sorrow, I must try my best to treat my subjects sincerely.

Indulge your emotions after success and look down on others. If you are sincere, you will unite hostile forces (and yourself), look down on others, and make your relatives become irrelevant strangers.

Original text:

When I hear the elders asking for wood, I will consolidate their roots; Those who want to flow far away will dig their springs; A man who considers national security will accumulate his morality. The source is not deep but flows far, the root is not solid but seeks the length of wood, and the virtue is not thick and seeks to govern the country. Although I am a fool and I know it is impossible, what is the situation?

When a person is an artifact, he will respect the rigor of the sky, never stop without borders, never think about being prepared for danger in times of peace, abstain from extravagance and thrift, and be overwhelmed by virtue. He will also cut off his roots in order to make the trees flourish, block the source and flow to the elderly.

Hundreds of heads of state, bearing the fate of heaven and earth, are all worried, and they are successful and declining. Those who start well are complicated, but those who can resist to the end are few. Is it difficult to take away the easy things and keep them? I took it in the past, and there was a surplus (yú[ the same as "surplus"]). What's the point of leaving it today? When the husband is worried, he will wait wholeheartedly; If you succeed, you will be addicted to pride. Wholehearted is the fusion of the five mountains, and pride is the road of flesh and blood.

Creative background:

Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, followed his father, Li Yuan, bravely resisted Sui Dynasty, lived frugally and made great achievements. In 627 AD, Li Shimin acceded to the throne and changed his chastity. In the early years of Zhenguan, he learned the lessons of Yang Di's downfall, further maintained a frugal and cautious style, and implemented many policies that were beneficial to the national economy and people's livelihood.

After more than ten years of governance, the economy has developed and people's lives have become richer. Coupled with the consolidation of border defense, there was nothing inside and outside, and Emperor Taizong gradually became arrogant and forgot his roots, overhauled temples and palaces, extensively searched for treasures, and traveled around, wasting people's money. Wei Zhi was extremely worried about this, and he clearly saw the hidden crisis behind the prosperity.

From March to July in the 11th year of Zhenguan (637), "there are four sparse in frequency, taking Chen's gains and losses as an example", and "Ten sparse in admonishing Taizong" is the second sparse, so it is also called "the second sparse in current politics". As soon as Emperor Taizong saw it, he became alert and wrote "a letter to Wei Zhi", indicating that he had changed from remonstrance. This article was put on the desk by Taizong and regarded as the motto.

In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Wei Zhi wrote "Ten Steps Can't Stop the Dilemma", pointing out that the ten aspects of Emperor Taizong's behavior were not as cautious as the early E69DA5E6BA9E79BAA6E79FA5E9819331353937 written by Emperor Taizong on the screen.

8. Li Taizong's translation of classical Chinese

When Song Taizong was in power, a man named Wang Zhu learned Wang Xizhi's calligraphy and got the hang of it. He works as a library assistant in Imperial College London. In addition to dealing with political affairs, the emperor also paid attention to practicing calligraphy. He sent eunuchs to show his handwriting to Wang Zhu many times. Every time, Wang Zhu thought that (Song Taizong) didn't learn well, and Emperor Taizong copied calligraphy more attentively. (Song Taizong) took the written words and asked Wang Zhu. Wang Zhu's answer is still the same as at the beginning. When asked about his intentions, Wang Zhu said: "Although (the emperor) originally wrote very well, if he said so soon (the emperor wrote very well), I am afraid that the emperor will no longer pay attention to calligraphy." From then on, the emperor's calligraphy was exquisite, surpassing the predecessors and ancients. The world thinks this is the result of Wang Zhu's exhortation to the emperor.
