Tian Ping, Levin, Wen Xuandi, Northern Qi Dynasty, was appointed as Taiyuan Gong and moved to Shangshu. Wuding for five years, served as the governor of Shangshuling, Zhongshujian and Gyeonggi. After Gaocheng was assassinated by slaves, Gao Yang became calm and took control of power after Gaocheng. He is eighteen years old, in order to be a toast, prime minister, commander-in-chief of Chinese and foreign armed forces, video minister, big stage, king of Qi County, and food city. And into the king of qi, a city of one hundred thousand households. After Guo Xiang took office, the food city was 200,000 yuan, plus nine tin.
In 550, Yuan Shan, Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, was forced to see the Zen position, stand on his own feet as the emperor, and his title was Qi, and he changed to Yuan Tianbao and established his capital. He is only twenty years old. In the early days of his reign, he was diligent in political affairs and ruled the country by law. He was able to use Yang Cheng and others, be diligent in preparing for war and conquer four grams. Later, he became delirious, suspicious and cruel, abused his brother, drank too much, and finally could not eat or drink because of alcoholism. In the 10th year of Natural Forest Protection (559), Gao Yang died at the age of 3 1. His posthumous title was Emperor Wenxuan, his temple name was Xianzu, and Prince Yin Gao ascended the throne. Wu Chengdi was renamed Jinglie at the beginning of Tiantong, and the temple was named Zong Wei. Wu Pingchu and Zhao Shenyan came to power, and the name of the temple is still the ancestor.
In the early days of his reign, he attached importance to government affairs, reduced counties, rectified bureaucracy, trained troops and strengthened military defense, which made Beiqi strong in a short time. He is very strict in law enforcement. Whether it's royalty or common people, it's the same. Once there was a drought in Yecheng, the capital, and the people had no food. When Gao Yang learned of this, he ordered Changling Li, the younger brother of Queen Li, to open the national treasury to help the victims. However, six months later, many people starved to death in Yecheng. They fled everywhere, but they dared to speak out. Later, an upright minister told the emperor about it regardless of his own safety. Hearing this, Gao Yang flew into a rage. After finding out the reason, Changling Li was ordered to be beheaded, and many ministers begged for his life, but he was still fired. After that, there was another famine, and no one dared to skimp on relief food.
Gao Yang also reformed the official system. He saw that there were too many local officials and overstaffed people, which increased the burden on farmers. So he adopted the suggestions of some ministers and cancelled the state and county organizational system. In this way, the number of officials in the country has been reduced by tens of thousands at once, corruption has been greatly reduced, and the burden on farmers has been greatly reduced.
In order to prevent the northern minorities from attacking, Levin also strengthened the Great Wall. Every slack season, he dispatched migrant workers to repair the Great Wall, which played a great role in the stability of the frontier. After a series of reform and development. Qi gradually became stronger.
Gao Yang sent troops to attack Rouran, Khitan, North Korea and other countries, all of which won a great victory. At the same time, the agriculture, salt and iron industry and porcelain manufacturing industry in the Northern Qi Dynasty are quite developed, and they are the richest among the three countries that keep pace with the Chen Dynasty and the Western Wei Dynasty. It can be said that there are few young and promising kings in the history of China. However, it was not long before he became corrupt. He ignores state affairs all day long and indulges in debauchery. He built three palaces in Yecheng (now Linzhang, Hebei Province), which were very luxurious and used hundreds of civilian workers. It's so extravagant. Gao Yang's oppression of the people became more severe in the later period of his rule. Although he was a Han Chinese, he slaughtered Han Chinese and safeguarded the interests of Xianbei nobles, so Northern Qi became a dark "hell on earth". The corruption of state affairs and the decline of the national situation have weakened the army day by day. A corrupt life shortened Gao Yang's life. In 559, the tenth year of Tianbao in Northern Qi Dynasty, Gao Yang died at the age of 365,438+0. Emperor Wenxuan of posthumous title, temple name Xianzu.
After Gao Yang's death, the ruling class in Beiqi became more and more chaotic.
Gao Yang: The most famous emperor in history.
Divination is a unique branch of mysterious culture in China. Measuring Chinese characters is a cultural activity to infer good or bad luck by adding and subtracting strokes and splitting font structure. Because divination belongs to the category of foreknowledge, it is related to the fate of the imperial regime or dynasty, and has always been valued by emperors in past dynasties. In the history of China, many emperors were interested in divination, such as Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang, Emperor Taizong, Wu Zetian, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty, Song Gaozong, Zhu Yuanzhang and Qianlong. They all left anecdotes related to divination.
When it comes to the most famous emperor in the history of China, people often think of Cao Cao, the emperor of Wei (strictly speaking, Cao Cao is not an emperor, but was made emperor by his eldest son Cao Pi after his death), because the story about Cao Cao's divination is widely spread. One of the stories: Cao Cao once gave everyone a bottle of cheese with the word "He" written on the bottle cap, which made everyone puzzled. Yang Xiu, editor-in-chief of Cao Cao, saw it and said that Wang Wei let everyone have a bite of cheese. Just forget it． Story 2: On another occasion, Cao Cao became prime minister. One day, he personally went to check the construction of auspicious symbols and wrote the word "live" on the gate, which confused the foreman. Yang Xiu was the secretary of the Prime Minister's office, and the foreman came to ask him. Yang Xiu said, this is not easy. The prime minister thinks the door is too big, so make it smaller quickly. If Cao's divination is a four-stage diviner, his nine-stage divination is dwarfed.
It has been calculated that from Qin Shihuang, the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty, to Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, 2 12 emperors are recognized in traditional history books, and their dates of birth and death can be verified. Among them, Gao Yang is the only one who wants to introduce the most famous emperor of measuring words. Gao Yang, A Wen Xuandi of the Northern Qi Dynasty, is not famous among the emperors in China, but he is a veritable emperor of measuring characters, and the technology of measuring characters has really reached an incredible level. In 550 AD, Gao Yang abolished the Eastern Wei Dynasty and established the Northern Qi Dynasty. Of course, the founding emperor Gao Yang wanted to give his dynasty a prosperous New Year's number, and he asked his ministers to discuss it. Someone suggested calling it Tianbao. Let God bless the Millennium of Beiqi. Everyone cheered in unison. Gao Yang said that this is good, but when the word "natural forest protection" is taken apart, it means "there are only ten adults". You laughed at me for only ten years. Gao Yang is always moody, dissolute and cruel. Usually, cauldrons, long saws, files, reefs and other instruments of torture that dismember people are often put in court. When he was drunk, he killed people for fun. There are many people around the minister who slaughtered for no reason. On one occasion, even the prime minister Yang Chengdu was almost stabbed with a knife to the skin of his upper abdomen. At this time, all the ministers were scared to kneel and scratch. Who knows Gao Yang said with a smile, nothing, nothing, this is an act of god, I don't blame you. Being emperor for ten years is good for me.
Interestingly, Gao Yang not only knows how many years he has been in office, but also knows when he will die. One year, Gao Yang took the beautiful queen to Mount Tai and asked the old man to divine in the heavenly palace of Dai Temple. Gao Yang asked, "How many years do you think I was emperor?" ? The old man said without thinking, thirty. Gao Yang said to the queen with a big smile: You see, Lao Dao also said that I only have ten years. The queen doesn't understand. Didn't the old road say thirty? Gao Yang explained that this thirty refers to 10 month 10 day, ten years, and three tens add up to thirty. Later, Gao Yang really fell ill in October of the tenth year of Natural Forest Protection (559). He was hungry for three days and 10 died.
More interestingly, when Prince Yin Gao was about to enter school, Gao Yang specially invited Shi Xing Zi Cai from imperial academy to measure his font size. Xing Zicai thought and thought, and proudly said, "Tao is the right way, and the right way on earth is vicissitudes." . Who knows Gao Yang shouted, Oh, no, orthography is a full stop, and it may be difficult for my son to inherit the unification. Xing Zicai was terrified out of her wits and quickly begged for a new font size. Gao Yang sighed heavily. It was unnecessary. It was an act of God. Even if it changed, it would be futile. Gao Yang looked around at the ministers' speeches to his half-brother, Changshan Wang Gao. Ah Yanzai, if I kill you now, I will become an unknown teacher, but I will fall into eternal shame. Please be merciful in the future. Usurp the throne if you want, but don't kill innocent people. Gao Yan knelt on the ground and kowtowed, even saying, dare not, dare not. After Gao Yang's death, he was promoted to a surname, and Jiao Zhao killed his nephew. /kloc-at the age of 0/7, Heshang became the expected person.
Words Liang Chao after the failure of the insurrection, Hou Jing handed the decree to lieutenant Zhao Sixian, let him to his subordinates. Seeing that Hou Jing had no hope of making a comeback, Zhao Sixian gave the imperial seal to Guo, the new owner of Nanyanzhou in Beiqi, as a gift of refuge. Guo gave it to his immediate boss again. After several twists and turns, the decree finally fell into his hand. One day, Gao Yang asked his ministers, Tell me, why did Hou Jing get the imperial seal handed down from generation to generation, but he still couldn't keep the throne of the son of heaven? Ministers were speechless. Gao Yang was tempted, and Hou Jing once said to his subordinates, you know, my surname is not for people to see, but for people to see. Yes, Hou Jing did become the son of heaven, but he forgot to watch not only the surname Hou but also the name Jing. When the word Hou Jing is taken apart, it is "the son of heaven for one hundred days". So his son of heaven rolled off the stage before his ass got hot. I calculated that he succeeded in attacking Wei Xin Jiankang to usurp the throne from1/month 19, and was defeated on March 19, a total of 120 days. On March 1st, Hou Jing left the palace for the ancient rule, and just lived in the palace for one hundred days. All ministers admire Gao Yang's intelligence.
"Violence" in Gao Yang
If there is a country founded by a madman group in the world, it is the Northern Qi Empire. Gao Yang has a jar and a saw in the Golden Hall. Whenever he is drunk, he must kill people to be happy. And he is drunk from morning till night, so he wants to kill people from morning till night. Maid-in-waiting eunuchs and cronies die tragically in his rage every day. Finally, the judicial department sent the prisoners sentenced to death to the palace for Gao Yang to kill. Later, too many people were killed, and the death row was not enough, so the defendants who were being tried in the detention center were all considered "criminals." Is not only sent to the palace, even when Gao Yang patrol, prisoners who work for the royal family are behind Gao Yang's ass, as long as they don't die for three months, they will be acquitted. When Gao Yang was a child, Prime Minister Gao Longzhi was very rude to him. Now he remembered his previous hatred and ordered the killing of Gao Longzhi. Suddenly, I hate it even more. I called more than twenty sons of Gao Longzhi to the horse. The whip was gently buckled on the saddle, and the guards were all under the knife, and their heads fell to the ground at the same time. When Premier Li Xian died, Gao Yang went to Li Xian's home to hold a memorial service and asked his wife, "Do you miss your husband?" The answer is: "Why not miss married couples?" Gao Yang said, "Since I miss you, why not go?" Take out the sword, cut off her head and throw it outside the wall. Gao Yang dotes on prostitute Xue Guimian and has an affair with her sister. One day, when she went to her sister's house for a drink, her sister begged Gao Yang to give her father a senior official. Gao Yang was furious and ordered the guards to hang her and watch her die. Another day, I suddenly remembered that Xue Guimian slept with another man, killed her again, hid her bloody head in her arms and threw it on the table at the climax of the banquet. The whole party was shocked. Gao Yang dismembered her body, made a lute out of her leg bones and sang, "Beauty is hard to find." When buried, Gao Yang followed, unkempt and crying loudly.
When violence broke out in Gao Yang, he treated his mother in the same way. Once, he knocked over the low stool (Hu bed) where his mother, Queen Lou, sat, causing the old woman to fall. Once he lost his temper and declared that he would marry his mother to Xianbei slaves. Gao Yang came to her mother-in-law's house, shot an arrow at her cheek and shouted, "I'm drunk and don't even know my own mother. What are you? " Give another hundred lashes to her mother-in-law whose face is covered with blood. Gao Yang imprisoned his two younger brothers, Jun Gao and Gao Huan, and they often gave him advice on weekdays. Gao Yang personally went to see them, sang loudly and ordered them to make peace. They were afraid and sad, singing and trembling. Gao Yang couldn't help crying when he heard this, and then he raised his iron spear and stabbed them. The guards rushed down with spears, and the two younger brothers struggled with iron spears and wailed loudly, and were soon stabbed into a ball of meat sauce. Finally, together with the iron cage, it was burned together. The last thing Gao Yang did was to slaughter all the royal families in the Northern Wei Dynasty. The babies were thrown into the air, taken away by iron spears and pierced one by one.
There is only one woman in Levin who has never been bullied by him, and that is Li Xinyu. Li is a Han nationality with beautiful talent and color. Gao Yang married her in Taiyuan and made her queen after she became emperor. Although he was unhappy and killed the queen, he was very polite to Li. As for Li's mother and sister, he has special respect for them. Once, after drinking, Gao Yang broke into her mother-in-law's house, and when she saw her pampered, she started a nameless fire. He took a bow and arrow from his entourage, shot an arrow in his mother-in-law's face, and said to her bleeding mother-in-law, "It's unfair that I hit my mother and didn't hit you. I want to beat you up. " So he ordered his men to whip his mother-in-law one hundred times before giving up.
By the age of 30, Gao Yang could no longer eat, only drank a few bowls of wine every day, and finally died of drunkenness. In history, emperors addicted to sex like Gao Yang are rare. It is said that Gao Yang was promiscuous because he was drunk. It should be said that he pretended to be crazy by drinking, and after drinking, he exposed his wild and cruel nature.
Why did Gao Yang in the Northern Qi Dynasty become a dissolute tyrant?
Gao Yang, the second son of Gao Huan, the powerful minister of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, was the founding emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
Gao Yang gives the deepest impression that he has fallen directly from a wise founding monarch of SHEN WOO to a dissolute, ruthless and cruel bloody devil. His behavior was so different that many people speculated that he was suffering from schizophrenia.
So what is Gao Yang like?
First, let's take a look at his growing environment. Gao Yang was made Duke of Taiyuan at the age of seven. He has a strong father, and the emperor was founded by their family. However, Gao Yang is only a second-class citizen in this distinguished family.
The gaos thought makes a handsome boy, which is an exception. Because of his ugly appearance, he and his mother's eldest brother Gao Cheng often abuse him in public. "This person also has money and there is no solution to the problem." Even this is not enough. He often bullies his wife in front of Gao Yang (Han Xin's leg is such a disgrace).
Third brother Jun Gao (half-brother) is not to be outdone. He often refers to mulberry and scolds Gao Yang, "Why don't you wipe your nose for your second brother!" I completely regard him as a mentally retarded child.
Brother, where are his parents?
It seems that Gao Huan still attaches great importance to this ugly son in history books, but in fact, Gao Yang has never entered his eyes. Gao Huan tried his best to train his eldest son Gao Cheng. First, he was allowed to enter the court to assist the government. Then, he made an article that stood by and rectified the officialdom and cracked down on the powerful. Then people who used him before they died, people who could not use him, and people who ruled Hou Jing before they closed their eyes. Gao Cheng succeeded smoothly because he had a good father. Besides Gao Cheng, it should be Gao Xun, the fifth son. Gao Cheng once made a mistake and was almost ruined. At that time, Gao Xun was the candidate considering his successor, not his eldest son Gao Yang. Besides, Jun Gao and Gao Huan are his pets. With a large group of smart and handsome children around, who would have thought that ugly children would sit all day without saying a word?
What about Gao Yang's mother? Most people think that their son is the mother's pet, and the mother must still love him, but in fact most people think so. Empress Dowager Cixi, Empress Dowager and other women are beyond the measure of ordinary people's hearts.
When Gao Yang was going to be emperor, his mother said, "Your father is like a dragon, your brother is like a tiger, and you have to live in the north all your life. Who are you alone? You have to do things like Shun and Yu! " Visible, in the eyes of the old lady, Gao Yang is certainly not as good as her father and brother. She doesn't know this son because she doesn't care about him. Her heart is on another son. After Gao Yang's death, the old woman eagerly helped her son Gao Yan to seize the throne from her grandson.
In a prominent family, he can't get the respect he deserves and the care of his relatives. What he got was cold eyes, ridicule and insults. What will happen to this man? Gao Yang just wants to prove his existence, and his ability is as good as his brothers.
From the allusion of "the knife and axe are in a mess" to catching Peng Le, it shows that this talented boy wants to tell his father that he is better than his brothers. His father said nothing but "yes" and "no", and his position in this family has not changed. Even so, he didn't give up on himself and kept a low profile.
Gao Cheng was assassinated, and the incident was sudden, shocking the inside and outside, and the ministers were at a loss. The fate of the Gao family and the fate of the Eastern Wei Dynasty are up in the air. Wei Jingdi thought that when Gao Cheng died, the Gaos would be leaderless and the regime would come back. Imagine that if the emperor really mastered the political power, the Gaos would be the first to clean up. Of course, another possibility is that there will be a second Gao Huan, and the result will inevitably be a bloodbath of the Gaos; There was civil strife in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and the girder on the south side of the Western Wei Dynasty next to it was definitely a fish in troubled waters. At this time, Gao Yang was calm, he stood up and saved his gaos thought. He calmly commanded his men to destroy the disorderly party, and then calmly announced that "slaves rebelled and the general was injured, but it was nothing serious." In fact, at this time, Gao Cheng was already dead. Then he returned to Jinyang, and the cronies mastered the relieving of the States. At this time, he was only twenty years old, and the political team left by his father and brother saw that he had mastered the general trend and began to work for him, which means that what he had done before was not planned by the think tank in advance.
Although Gao Yang won the handsome seal beautifully, many people still doubt his ability. What should a person do to prove himself? He chose to be emperor. Most people object because they despise him from the bottom of their hearts. At this time, someone advised him that "it is because he is not as good as his father and his brother that he wants to be emperor", and even this sentence really poked his heart.
After Gao Yang acceded to the throne, he must want to be a good emperor, a good son, a good brother and a good husband. He did all this.
"At the beginning, I practiced a big position, paid attention to political skills, controlled people by law, and put righteousness first." Gao Longzhi, your minister, wanted to hurt Cui because of personal enmity, but was rejected. Then Cui and others vilified Gao Longzhi, ignoring the fact that justice was truly done first.
As for a good son, some people may find it strange, because Gao Yang is basically regarded as a rebellious son, but in fact, Gao Yang is a dutiful son, but he just doesn't like to talk, and others just don't know.
There is one more thing that few emperors can do. Gao Yang knew that his prince was too weak to cure his two younger brothers. He said to Li Xinyu, "Life is doomed to death, so there is no pity! But unfortunately still young, people will catch it! " He also knows that it is his own brother who wants to win the position. Before he died, he said to his younger brother, "If you take it, be careful not to kill it!" " In fact, he also thought about lifting his son to pull out the thorn and get rid of the high performance of Zhu Yuanzhang in later generations, but in fact, the last affection made him give up this practice. In his own words, "What can I do for my mother if the child dies?" If he is really heartless, he can learn from Han Jingdi. However, he put the throne and the lives of his wife and children on his precious brother. Before he died, he believed in the affection between his brothers, but in fact, his two younger brothers were completely disappointing. Gao Yan abolished Yin Gao (Gao Zhengdao), and Gao Zhan forced him to rape the queen and killed Wang Shaode (the second son of Taiyuan).

See Book of Northern Qi, Volume 17, Biography 9 ◎ Welcome to Fa Jin (Zi Guangxian)
Grandfather is a Zen, and he is the king of Xianyang County, and the secretariat remains unchanged. Winter in Jin Yanggong. Gold disease, the emperor fortunately, his house is in sight, giving him medicine, too numerous to mention. Return to the state after recovery. Three years, except for the teacher. The emperor collects thieves and gold obeys the emperor. When the army returned, the emperor was lucky to be in Zhangzhou and flew away with a golden banquet. In four years, Xiezhou returned Jinyang with a surname. Fortunately for the driver, Liugong and the kings did their best to buy wine and have fun and stayed up all night. The emperor was very sorry and appointed Feng Le, the second son of Zhao Jin, as General Wuwei. Because Kim said, "Father and son respect each other as guests, so we should get married and be a Fan Wei forever." Or the imperial edict to Princess Shang Yining, the capital of Sun Wudu. On the day of the ceremony, the emperor blessed the Golden Hall from the Empress Dowager, and the queen, the prince and the king all followed, thus treating each other.
We can know from this passage that Gao Yang married Princess Yining to Hulu Wudu, the grandson of Hulu Jin, in Tianbao four years in the Northern Qi Dynasty. Hu Lvjin and Hu's father and son are unparalleled in riding and shooting, with outstanding military exploits, incomparable loyalty and courage, and lofty prestige. They are really the leaders of Xianbei in Northern Qi Dynasty. Hu Lvwu is the eldest grandson of Hu Lvjin and the eldest son of Hu, and his position is extraordinary. His princess must be the first princess and real princess of Gao in Northern Qi Dynasty, that is, the first daughter of God Emperor Gao Huan, or the first daughter of Wen Xiang Gao Cheng, or the first daughter, but not the illegitimate daughter of the above three emperors or the daughters of other princes of Gao. Combining the above quotations and other historical materials of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Princess Yining is most likely the daughter of Wen Xuandi Levin and Li Xinyu Zu E. Of course, this inference is only based on the analysis and judgment of historical materials, and there is no direct evidence at present.
In the northwest of Yipingling, Gao Huan, west of Zhong Er and No.3 Middle School, southeast of Houwan Zhang Cun and northeast of Shiren Bay Zhang Cun, there is a big tomb numbered M 106. There is a stone statue 80 meters away from the tomb, which is 4.06 meters high. It can be seen from the carvings and decorative patterns that it is a typical work of the Northern Qi Dynasty. It just stands on the west side of Shinto in the intact soil south. According to the old man in the village, another "Stone Man" was buried underground in his early years, so Zhang Wan Village was also called "Stone Man Bay Village" before. There is only one case where a "stone man" is placed in the tomb of Cixian County. The complete soil of this tomb is over 30 meters high and 1.50 meters in diameter. In the early days of liberation, the remaining bandits were wiped out, the top of the tomb was sealed and two helicopters were stopped. The height of the enclosure also exceeds the specifications of the nearby tombs. For more than 30 years, farmers burned bricks to borrow soil. In the 1970s, the intact soil was dug away, and the original stolen hole was exposed. The author went to the site for investigation and protection. At that time, it was measured that the water in the tomb alone was more than six meters deep, and the top of the tomb was made of five layers of rope bricks and white ash coupons, with a total thickness of about 2 meters. Of course, the thickness of the tomb wall will exceed 2 meters. The tombs of Jinan Wang Gaorun and Jinan Princess Li Ni unearthed in Cixian County have been discovered. From the above three points and the analysis of the location of this tomb, we can see that there are Jun Chengling Tomb and Gao Lv Tomb of Gao Cheng (brother) in the east, and Yi Ping Mausoleum of his father Gao Huan in the southeast, so the tomb should be Wuning Mausoleum in Levin, Wen Xuandi, Northern Qi recorded in the Book of Northern Qi and History of Northern Qi. 1987, the Institute of Archaeology of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences excavated this tomb. Although no epitaph or memorial book has been unearthed, more than a thousand pieces of pottery figurines have been unearthed, including two guards, which are 1.5 meters high, the largest among the tombs of the Northern Dynasties in Cixian County. The excavation of this tomb further proves the rationality of the above inference.
