Troubled times and prosperous times overlap, unity and ** alternate, this seems to be an unchangeable law.
Li Yuan's official position in the Sui Dynasty was not low, why did he embark on the road of rebellion? Everything develops for a reason.
The most intuitive manifestation of Li Yuan's ambition is the names of his four sons.
So, what kind of "mystery" is hidden in this?
Li Yuan was born in Chang'an, a descendant of Li Hui, the founding monarch of Western Liang.
After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, although Li Yuan was only an unknown young man, he soon entered the court as a relative of the emperor.
If it weren't for the later rule of the Sui Dynasty that chilled the hearts of the people, Li Yuan's life might have become uneventful.
So what is the real Li Yuan like?
Li Yuan in history is actually a person with great talents.
When Li Yuan was seven years old, his father left him. Before his father died, he played for the court and passed the title to Li Yuan.
After Li Yuan inherited the title, he could rely on his ancestors or on his own. He chose the second option.
Li Yuan relied on his talent and the deep relationship between the Sui Dynasty royal family, and it only took a few years for him to become an official assassin.
After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he was busy with pleasure, and the people were forced to the end by him. There is often a step between ruling the world and troubled times.
Li Yuan not only showed talent in politics, but also showed strong ability in military affairs, which laid the groundwork for his later uprising.
After Li Yuan was transferred to an official post in Shanxi, soon after taking office, the local people launched a less mature peasant uprising.
The quality of the insurgents varied greatly, and there was no huge financial support. The repression of the army could easily have made the uprising a failure.
Since this army was led by Li Yuan, the strength of Li Yuan's army was expanded.
During the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, Li Yuan's strength was steadily improving.
On the side of the couch, let others sleep soundly. Yang Guang's attitude towards Li Yuan also became ambiguous.
Li Yuan could only be fond of his voice, showing his reliability, and trying to lower the vigilance of Emperor Yang of Sui.
But even so, Yang Guang was still not at ease with him, and tried his best to drive him away from the center of the power hub and let him take up a position in Taiyuan.
Opportunities always come with risks. Seizing the opportunity is equivalent to taking a step towards the starting point of the sky.
Taiyuan was a rare opportunity for Li Yuan's life, and fortunately he seized it.
In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, in order to pursue the power to live, the people revolted like bamboo shoots in various places.
Li Yuan managed the big and small affairs in the Taiyuan area, and it was a difficult choice whether to revolt or not.
On the one hand, from his ancestors to himself, he has always deeply rooted the concept of loyalty to the monarch in his mind, and on the other hand, he feels sad about the unfair treatment he has received.
Li Shimin persuaded: "Now is the best time for us to revolt, I hope my father will make a choice as soon as possible, otherwise there is a great possibility that there will be changes later." ”
Li Yuan led the army to capture Chang'an and had a great political initiative.
Li Yuan chose to raise troops at just the right time, before Cheng Biting Jin, Qin Shubao and others had the experience of successfully raising troops, and then the anger of the people against the harsh government of the Sui Dynasty reached the extreme.
The signboard of Li Yuan's family, who has been an official for generations, has been favored by famous families, so he has gained many talented people.
In the process of Yang Guang's third southward trip to Jiangdu, Li Yuan saw the opportunity and raided Chang'an.
He chose to support Yang Yu as the new emperorcoerced the Son of Heaven and ordered the princes to take the actual power of the country into their own hands.
Behind a talented person, there are always other talented people. Li Yuan's supporters strongly demanded that he ascend the throne and become emperor.
He took advantage of the trend and established his own country, which he named the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty's unification of the world began.
Li Yuan hopes that he can do something for the people in the troubled times, and hopes that any corner of the world can stay away from the war and avoid the suffering of the people's displacement.
Guided by this idea, in the course of his war with his enemies, he treated people with a tolerant heart and influenced them to join the Tang army. The "Tang regime" had an army that could escort it.
After several years of competition, the Tang Dynasty defeated Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, Liu Heimin and others, and completely incorporated the land of China into the "pocket" of the Li family.
The Tang Dynasty, under the leadership of Li Yuan, formed the basic system of the system. The system encompasses political, economic, and military aspects.
Li Yuan isCrossing the river by feeling the stones,He opened a branch and learned from people, and knew people well. He was far-sighted and laid a solid foundation for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Jiancheng is Li Yuan's eldest son, and he naturally became the crown prince when he occupied the enemy.
Although his second brother Li Shimin is young, his talent has spread among scholars.
His third brother Li Yuan is infinitely powerful, but his IQ is a little lacking and he is not liked by his brothers.
His fourth brother Li Yuanji is usually taken care of by him and is indispensable in his camp.
These four names are nothing special when viewed separately, but when they are connected together, they can completely reflect the gully in Li Yuan's heart.
Li Yuan's eldest son is named Li JianchengConstruction is the construction of a career, and success is the result of a construction business.
Li Yuan's expectation for him is not only to do things, but also to do things successfully.
Li Yuan gave his second son a name, and that was Li Shimin. He is also the husband of Wu Meiniang who appeared in the TV series.
"The people of the world" is to serve the people of the world.
To help others, we first consider helping others within our own capabilities. If he wants to save the people of the world, then he must stand at the pinnacle of power.
Li Yuanba, Yuan represents the initial. Ba represents domineering. A domineering person is necessarily a person of high authority.
In ancient times, people had the cognition of "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang", and "Xuan" represented the meaning of the world, and it was associated with "Ba", and the meaning was very clear.
Since ancient times, every talented person wants to achieve a great career, and Li Yuan is no exception.
His fourth son was named Li Yuanji. In the word "Yuanji", "Yuan" can represent the meaning of "beginning", and "Ji" has the idea of auspiciousness, hoping that the future will get better.
Li Yuan hopes that after he takes charge of the world, the people of the people can live a smooth life, and finally reach the point where the road is not left behind.
If the names of his four sons are taken together, each name represents a good wish at a different stage in the process of dominating the world.
Achieve hegemony, appease the people, develop steadily, and dominate the world.
Li Yuan went from a courtier to an emperor, and he walked this road for seven years. Li Yuan's road to the emperor has been smooth sailing since then, and the world he has laid down is also promising.
