Chatting with Liu Che and Yang Guang.

These two emperors can really talk together, at least I think so. They are actually quite similar.

I didn't use the two posthumous title, Emperor Wu and Emperor Yang, because I think posthumous title was given by later generations, and some of them were partial.

Both of them are rich second generation. Liu Che inherited the wealth of Wenjing rule and attached importance to the cultivation of war horses from Wenjing period. Although this support policy was somewhat humiliating, it brought a rest and provided Liu Che with the strength to compete with Xiongnu. Yang Guang inherited the rule of "Holy Khan". According to historical records, six granaries, such as Xinglong and Luo Hui, were built by Emperor Wen, and stored grain until the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. In the era of cold weapons, population and food are national strength!

Both of them are wealthy families. Let's talk about Liu Che first. I was overjoyed. If the Northern Expedition of Xiongnu is a humiliation for decades, it is a bit nonsense to levy Dawan for Ma Yi. Although famous in the western regions, it also hurts national strength. In addition, Yang Guang was overjoyed. It would be nonsense to say that the Universiade was built for the sake of a thousand years' inheritance and to crusade against Koguryo for the sake of face. Although Goguryeo made the main March for the third time, her national strength was almost exhausted. Both of them like to go out to patrol, and the palace has not been repaired less. They have a way of messing with people.

Both of them have fought for their dreams. Let's not talk about Liu Che's great achievements. Let's talk about the controversial Yang Guang. If he is a mediocre person, a glutton, and a person who has no progress, he will live a stable life and walk around rain or shine. Unfortunately, he is not. His first half of life was a struggle. In fact, the Grand Canal is not for the convenience of visiting Jiangnan, nor for visiting Zhangye in the west. Liu Che opened up the Silk Road, while Yang Guang dredged and developed it. He overestimated his ability and national strength.

Both of them admire Confucianism. Liu Che aside, he only respects Confucianism. Let's talk about Yang Guang, who initiated the imperial examination system and gave the world a chance to get ahead. Collect and protect books and carry out cultural protection from the ruling class; My own cultural accomplishment is also quite good. I have read several poems written by him, especially "Drinking Horses in the Great Wall Cave", saying that "trees are always the policy, which will last for one trillion years." I'm afraid I'm resting in Beijing. "It embodies the ambition of a king, and also expresses the real purpose of the West's visit to Zhang Ye.

However, the ending of the two people is different. Perhaps because of Yang Guang's tragic ending, I have great sympathy for this tragic emperor. Maybe he is really ambitious, but he really has a personality defect. However, the huge contrast between the beautiful starting point and the tragic ending is fascinating.

Since Yang Guang's second expedition to Koguryo, the Sui Dynasty has been overwhelmed. Although the rebellion in Yang Xuangan was quelled, it also sounded the alarm-the gentry was unstable. However, the dead (miserable) and dying emperor, regardless of national strength, launched the third crusade. This time, his face was won, his lining was rotten, and the peasant uprising became a spark that could start a prairie fire, which dealt a serious blow to a proud and fragile blx. It's easy to cut a knife and then fall to the other extreme.

Is it cool that Liu Che expelled Huns, spread its power in the western regions, conquered Korea and expanded its territory in the Han Dynasty? Cool! In addition, the construction of palaces, the pursuit of immortals and witchcraft, the financial resources have also been tossed away, the bureaucracy is corrupt, and the people are poor, which is not much better than the situation after Yang Guang's third Crusade.

However, Liu Che thought (inwardly) (inwardly) (strongly) and painfully (greatly) and released "The Crime of Wheel Platform". Although I haven't read it, it is said that his words are sincere and thorough. Imagine a great emperor, an emperor who thinks highly of himself, and an autocratic emperor, publicly admitting his mistakes in his later years. It's not easy.

Look at Yang Guang again. Because of her smooth growth, she is very talented and narcissistic. Narcissists have poor tolerance for setbacks. It is said that Sharon Si Tong couldn't accept her old face and cried in the toilet. She didn't want to go out to meet people. When the national situation was declining, Yang Guang did not reflect and blame himself. Instead, he buried his head in the sand like an ostrich, chose to ignore and escape, and turned to the stage of giving up on himself. Favorite children often can't stand the blow, and they are full of praise for children who lack resilience when they grow up. Parents should take a warning.

Personality determines fate, and mentality determines success or failure. Although the national situation was not good after Yang Guang's third Crusade, the biggest rebel forces at that time were Wagangjun and Dou Jiande. Judging from the later performance, Wang Neng defeated the Wagang Army and was able to draw Dou Jiande. For example, Yang Guang sent a letter of condemnation, Yang Guang sat in Luoyang instead of Jiangdu, and Yang Guang actively put out the fire and made great efforts. Wang did not dare to object, and Li Yuan, who won the hearts of the people, did not necessarily object. This country is not out of control. Everything is still, because the proud Yang Guang gave up himself. Yang Guang prepared poisoned wine for himself and the harem in Jiangdu. He once muttered to himself in the mirror-who is my great head yearning for? He gave up on himself and pitied what he called great rivers and mountains and hundreds of millions of people.

If it comes true, I don't think Yang Guang is worthy of posthumous title, but he is not Yang-ti. If Liu Che had not been accused of a crime, his rule might not have been overthrown, but I don't think he is worthy of Qin Shihuang.

Maybe. History is by no means a fact. What really leaves us is that history is a mirror, even if it is not true!
