Short video: Shocking the world

"God is so unfair!"

"Why can't we meet such a good emperor?"

"All taxes are exempted, my god, I can't even think about it!"

"Emperor Wen of Han is such a good emperor!"

"Why aren't there more good emperors like this?!"

Except for Emperor Taizong of Tang and some wealthy dynasties, the people of almost all dynasties are jealous.

[Why were the thrones of Emperor Taizong in history not inherited normally? #History]

This title touches on some sensitive words of Emperor Taizong.

【“In history, emperors with the temple name Taizong have achieved a lot and are very valuable, and their strength is even not inferior to that of the founding emperor.”】

【“And the strange thing is that most of the Taizong emperors did not inherit the throne in the normal order, because it is very difficult to successfully obtain the Taizong temple name.”】

【“Speaking of Taizong, many people may first think of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and then think of his Xuanwu Gate Incident.”】

【“But in fact, Li Shimin can almost be said to be the one with a relatively normal source of the throne among all the Taizong in history.”】

Hearing Tianmu say this, Li Shimin smiled.

【“Let’s talk about the normal origin of the throne first. It is nothing more than the default successor of the founding emperor.”】

【“Then let’s count the Taizong emperors in history.”】

【“The first Emperor Taizong Wen of Han, Liu Heng, was supported by the ministers of the capital to become emperor after the ministers of the Han Dynasty suppressed the rebellion of Zhu Lu.”】

【“Zhou Bo and Chen Ping, the founding heroes of the Han Dynasty, believed that Liu Heng was soft and easy to manipulate, so they supported him to become emperor. As a result, Liu Heng retreated to advance, pulling and beating, and unknowingly abolished Zhou Bo’s position as prime minister, firmly grasping power in his hands.”】

【“Liu Heng was not the heir designated by Emperor Taizu Gao, Liu Bang, and after he arrived in Chang’an, he acquiesced to his ministers to kill the children of Emperor Hui of Han, Liu Ying. This method does not look like a normal succession.”】

“Suppress the rebellion of Zhu Lu and kill Hui’er’s children!” Lu Zhi was completely unable to hold back.

Zhou Bo, Chen Ping, Liu Heng and others in the Han Gaozu dimension were also unable to hold back.

Liu Heng: "I killed my eldest brother's child?!"

The people didn't care whether Liu Heng killed his nephew or not. They only knew that they could live a good life if Liu Heng became the emperor.

["The second Wu Taizong Sun Xiu was supported by powerful officials after Sun Liang was deposed, and he was not designated by Wu Emperor Sun Quan."]

["Next, there are a lot of Taizongs during the Southern and Northern Dynasties."]

["Jin Taizong Sima Yu was the eighth emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and his father was the first emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Sima Rui. But he was also supported by the powerful official Huan Wen in the struggle."]

["Former Qin Taizong Fu Deng, he was able to ascend the throne because the Former Qin was no longer viable at this time, and he was the only bloodline of the Former Qin."]

["There are also people like Liu Song Taizong Liu Yu, Southern Liang Taizong Liu Yu, etc. "Compared to them, the next Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, was indeed very normal. Although the Xuanwu Gate Incident was also a change in the top leadership, he was still the biological son of Emperor Gaozu of Tang, Li Yuan. After killing his brother, he ascended the throne as the crown prince. So Li Shimin himself only had problems with the source of his crown prince status, not the source of the throne." Li Shimin nodded and said, "It was the emperor who passed the throne to me!" Li Shimin's smile could not be suppressed, and the more he read, the happier he became. 【“People like Emperor Taizong of Liao, Emperor Taizong of Jin, and Emperor Taizong of Dali all had their own problems when they came to power.”】

【“Emperor Taizong of Liao, Yelü Deguang, was not the crown prince. It was only after Yelü Abaoji died that the queen chose to stand on his side. This stand was obviously a little wrong.”】

【“Emperor Taizong of Dali, Duan Siliang, snatched the throne from his nephew.”】

【“As for Emperor Taizong of Song, the legend about him killing his brother to seize power has never ceased. His candlelight and axe sound earned him the title of leader of the Axe Gang.”】

【“After Emperor Taizu of Song died, he hurriedly changed the reign title before the normal time, so that even Sima Guang felt that this elder brother was a little bit wrong.”】

Emperor Taizu of Song, Zhao Kuangyin: Leader of the Axe Gang.

Emperor Taizong of Song, Zhao Guangyi: I am the successor. My brother passed the throne to me! That’s right!

Zhao Guangyi was being stubborn in his heart.

[“Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty is even more famous. Zhu Di did not stage a coup, but directly launched a civil war, seized power by force, marched into Nanjing, and seized the throne.”]

Shame on you!

Not only Zhu Di is shameless, but some Ming Dynasty emperors are also shamelessLook.

Rushing into Nanjing and seizing the throne; this is not what a good person would say, only bandits would say such things.

If Zhu Di had not succeeded, history books would have recorded his rebellion.

Zhu Di succeeded, and history books were written by him.

[“Although Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji, succeeded to the throne with the support of his brothers and ministers, rumors about his usurpation of power have never ceased. After all, among the four great beiles at the time, his ability was almost the only one, and Emperor Taizu of the Qing Dynasty, Nurhaci, also intended to pass the throne to Gurgun. There are rumors that Huang Taiji killed the Queen Consort Abahai and forcibly seized power.”]

Huang Taiji: “What nonsense!”

Whether what Tianmu said was true or not, Huang Taiji could not admit it.

【“Looking at it this way, the Taizongs in history all seem to be quite unclean.”】

【“The reason for this phenomenon is that Taizongs are often the second or third emperors after the founding emperor.”】

【“For a feudal dynasty, the beginning of the founding of a country is always the most chaotic time. The emperor’s authority has not yet been fully consolidated, and the relationship between the powerful ministers is still very serious. The distribution of interests is uneven, and it is easy to fight. On the contrary, after Taizong, as the court gradually stabilizes and restores order, it is possible to achieve normal succession.”】

The Taizus of all dynasties agree with this statement.

But some people are unwilling to give up and still want their designated heirs to succeed, including a Taizu surnamed Zhao who does not want to reveal his name.

[Some Taizongs fought for the throne, which was more exciting than Taizu’s fight for the throne! ]

[Li Shimin: Looking at the Taizongs of all dynasties, how many of them can surpass me in the right to succeed to the throne? ]

Li Shimin: Compared with the Taizongs of later generations, I did succeed to the throne in the most right way!

[Isn't Zhu Di the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty? ]

[Zhu Di himself called himself Taizong, and Chengzu was changed to him by his descendants. ]

[Taizong? Chengzu! ]

[Zhu Di's temple name was changed by Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houcong. Before, Zhu Di was Taizong, but he changed it to Chengzu. ]

[Emperor Jiajing: There is only one ancestor in my Ming Dynasty, Chengzu! ]

Emperor Jiajing: I didn't, I never said that!
