Zhenguan Chang'an Xiaofangzheng

Chapter 702 The fourth year of Yonghui arrives

On December 33, the third year of Yonghui, King Pu Li Tai suffered from chronic illness and died at the age of [-]. He was given the posthumous title "Gong" and was given to Taiwei and Yongzhou Mu.

"Gong" is the best posthumous title, but it is not perfect.

Respecting the virtuous and righteous is called Gong; respecting the virtuous and honoring the righteous is called Gong; respecting the virtuous and respecting the righteous is called Gong; respecting the virtuous and respecting the righteous is called Gong; being able to change it after passing it is called Gong.

The epitaph here is different from the "Old Book of Tang", which records the age as 35.

As for the "Old Tang Book" record that Taizong was the fourth son, while the epitaph records that he was the third son, it is obvious that Li Kuan, who died early and succeeded Li Zhiyun, King Ai of Chu, was left out.

Emperor Yonghui was so sad that he ordered the author to write "The Tang Dynasty presented the epitaph of Prince Pu Gong to the Taiwei of Yongzhou".

"Wang Taitai, also known as Huibao, is the grandson of Emperor Gaozu Wu and the third son of Emperor Taizong Wen. He is so beautiful that he can look up to the sky and admire his divine structure..."

"On December [-], the third year of Yonghui, he passed away in Yunxiang, on the [-]rd day of the Spring and Autumn Period. Yuan Shen's edict to pursue the distant past, and the ceremony of mourning and glory, were presented to Taiwei and Yongzhou Mu. Ban Jianba (xì, four [-]) People, Yu, Bao, Guchu. Three thousand pieces of stolen goods, three thousand stones of rice and millet. He was given the secret weapon of Dongyuan, and was given by the funeral official. He was given generous services, and his posthumous title was King Gong. He was also given the courtesy. He was four years old. On the [-]th day of the second lunar month of Guichou, Renyin was buried at Matan Mountain in Yunxiang County, Junzhou."

It's not that Emperor Yonghui didn't want Prince Pu Gong to be buried in Zhaoling, it was just that Li Tai was stubborn in the end and would rather die than be buried in Yunxiang County.

Chang'an is so sad that he may not return.

Ma Tanshan also became the burial place of Li Tai's clan until the tomb was moved in later generations.

Li Tai's epitaph has become the most detailed and most praised example among the kings of the Tang Dynasty.

But it's useless, everyone is dead, no matter how beautiful the writing is, it still stands in front of the tomb.

In order to mourn for King Pu Gong, Emperor Yonghui came to Xuan on the first day of the year and was not allowed to go to court.

Linxuan here refers to the front hall instead of sitting in the main hall. There are sills on both sides near the eaves between the front halls, like the pavilion of a car, so it is called.

Another interpretation is in front of the window.

After spending the day, Fan Zheng felt something was wrong.

Taiwei eldest son Sun Wuji took action boldly. Fangzhou governor and consort Prince Consort Fang Yiai, Situ, Qinzhou governor and Prince Consort Li Yuanjing, Sikong and Wu king Li Ke, and Ningzhou governor and Prince Consort Xue Wanche were arrested for rebellion.

Fang Yiai and Xue Wanche were executed together, and Li Yuanjing, Li Ke and Princess Gaoyang were sentenced to death.

It is said that Xue Wanche survived the stabbing and angrily shouted at the executioner, "Why don't you use more force?"

It is really sad that a great general of a generation ended up with his head missing.

The case involved Chai Lingwu, a young minister of Taipu. Emperor Yonghui wanted him to know that he had lost his way early, so he reduced his official rank and ordered him to go to Zhangye, Ganzhou with Princess Baling to serve as the chief pastor of Zhangye Zuomu Temple in Taipu Temple.

Chai Lingwu and his wife, who had escaped the disaster, fell to the ground to express their gratitude and rushed to Zhangye.

The struggle for power is too scary to play with. It is better to imitate the Tuyuhun people and put on fences and play galloping horses.

Thanks to Fan Zheng's warning, otherwise the couple would have been in love with each other.

General Zuo Xiaowei and An Guogong lost their minds and were implicated to some extent. However, because of the loss of state wool, the punishment was compromised, and they were finally exiled to Bizhou.

The eldest princess of Jiujiang went to Bizhou with her request to cut off the city.

Emperor Yonghui looked at the watch and sighed: "If all the princesses in the Tang Dynasty are as virtuous as the eldest princess of Jiujiang, how lucky they are!"

The eldest princess of Yongjia, who was divorced for her romantic nature, became an unspeakable pain for the Tang royal family.

The eldest princess of Yongjia was in front of many people at this time, her reputation was tainted, and it was extremely difficult to remarry.

Don't get married, it sounds heartbreaking;

Just get married, you won't harm anyone.

The minister and prince Zhan Shi and Pingchang County Gongyu Wenjie were sent to Guizhou;

Taichang Qing and Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia County, were exiled to Guizhou; King Wu Li Ke and his mother's brother Li Min, King of Shu, were deposed as commoners and moved to Bazhou.

Li Daozong's appointment was somewhat of a personal grudge. Fortunately, Li Jingheng was not implicated, so there was a bottom line.

As for Li Min, it doesn't matter whether he was really violent or trying to avoid trouble by beating his subordinates.

Even if there are intact eggs under the overturned nest, Li Ke will die, and he will inevitably suffer.

Surprisingly, Li Min later changed his title to King of Fuling. Is this because he was afraid that he would have no pickled vegetables to eat?
It doesn't matter whether Li Ke rebels or not. What matters is that Changsun Wuji must take the opportunity to get rid of him.

His wisdom and his bloodline are the reasons for his death.

As soon as the word "like oneself" comes out, Li Ke will either ascend the throne or bow his head and be executed.

Li Yuanjing was executed along with his sons and heirs, and Li Ke's four sons, Li Ren, Li Wei, Li Kun, and Li Xuan, were exiled to Lingbiao (referring to Guangdong, Guangdong, Hainan, and northern Vietnam).

It can be seen from this that Changsun Wuji knew the situation of the two of them very well.

The sons of the Fang family were exiled to Lingnan, and Fang Yizhi pardoned him because of his father's merits. He was exempted from being a commoner, and Fang Xuanling stopped enjoying the Ancestral Temple.

The family plans are blocked because of the heirs, and they are not allowed to enjoy it. It is also a warning to the ministers to restrain the future generations and not to ruin their life's work in one day.

Chai Zhewei was also affected, but fortunately it was not serious, that is, the governor of Anxi was demoted to the governor of Xunzhou, Lingnan Road, and he could eat enough star fruits and lychees.

Li Yuanli, the governor of Jiangzhou and the king of Xu, was granted the title of Situ and concurrently the governor of Luzhou;

Kaifu Yitong, the third division, and the British public Li Ji were appointed as Sikong.

Li Yuanli, the tenth son of Emperor Taiwu, the great ancestor, and his mother Guo Jieyu, was a respectful young man, good at riding and shooting, and famous for being good at handling government affairs. He had thousands of households in the city.

No one is perfect. Li Yuanli's son, Li Mao, was dangerous and incompetent. He molested the dancer Li Yuanli raised and was scolded by Li Yuanli. He took advantage of her illness to cut off medicine and food, which eventually led to Li Yuanli starving to death.

Fan Zheng waited for the adjustment of the court to be completed and reported to the court that the Barma Kingdom in the North Sea (Lake Baikal) and the Linyi Kingdom in the extreme south paid tribute.

There is nothing new in Linyi's tribute, it is just a tame elephant.

The Tuima Kingdom was later called the Huela Kingdom. "Tang Huiyao" mentioned that it was [-] miles away from Chang'an and extremely cold. People and horses cultivated grains. They were good at fishing and hunting. They ate fish, deer, otters, and martens. , named for its mottled color.

Emperor Yonghui couldn't hold back the joy on his brows.

Oops, there is a new foreign country coming to court, and they can show off in front of the late emperor and the Lord.

In any case, it was a good thing for the Tang Dynasty to have new foreign countries come to the dynasty.

Even Xu Jingzong, who moved back to the Ministry of Rites, agreed with this point.

At the same time, Xu Jingzong proposed that Kong Yingda's "Five Classics of Justice" should be promulgated to the world, and the Ming Jing Order would conduct examinations based on it every year.

I don’t know how many scholars were gnashing their teeth at Xu Jingzong because of this. There is already enough content in the scientific examination!

The scholar subject has been cancelled, and the Ming Jing subject is now the first subject in the imperial examination.

The Zhu Ming Classics Examination has ten chapters for each chapter, two chapters for "The Classic of Filial Piety", eight chapters for "The Analects of Confucius", and five chapters for "Laozi" with annotations. Each chapter has three words. If you understand more than six chapters, you will then try ten chapters. If you understand seven chapters, you will be considered as high. No. .

Posting scriptures is about filling in the blanks;

Test strategy is about answering questions.

The difficulty does not change due to changes in the way of answering the questions. If you are ignorant, you will not be able to pass a simple right or wrong question.

Regarding the imperial examination, Fan Zheng could not say a single word.

Do you really think that the officials at this time are so stupid that they cannot see the disadvantages of not being anonymous?
No, not hiding your name will help the examiners to favor one side!
Those who apply for investment bank papers will default to a certain official and a party in the future, and they will also allocate manpower to certain factions.
