The emperor stuttered and almost drowned in the toilet. Who is he?

There was an emperor in the Tang Dynasty. Before he became emperor, he was very sad. Although he was also the son of the old emperor, he didn't talk much because he stuttered a little when he was a child. He was laughed at by many palace maids and eunuchs as an "idiot", which means a little fool.

He is Li Chen, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and his father is Tang Xianzong. According to historical records, Xianzong originally wanted to make Li Chen a prince. Later, it didn't work, and Li Ang, that is, Tang Wenzong, was replaced. When Tang Wenzong was alive, life in Li Chen was better, but after Tang Wuzong ascended the throne, although Li Chen was his uncle, Tang Wuzong often bullied him.

In the Tang Dynasty, Wei Zhaodu's Record of Wang Baoyun's Continued Emperor recorded a precious historical material: "Xuanzong was the fourth son of the Emperor. After the collapse of Xian Di, he joined hands with my nephew, literate Sect. After the fall of literate admired, Huang Wu worried that he had other plans. In the secret order, he often waited on four people to capture Xuanzong in Yongxiang, lived in seclusion and sank in the palace toilet. Qiu Wu covered the car with dirt and debris and took another way home. " That is to say, Tang Wenzong worried that this uncle was unreliable and wanted to put him in the toilet of the palace and drown him. Fortunately, the eunuch quietly pulled it out of the palace with a dung cart and saved his life.

In these three years, he can only become a monk in silence. The Buddhist classic Wu Guang Hui Yuan records in detail some dialogues of Zen quotations that Xuanzong took part in when he became a monk. Chen Li once lived in Changhai Changyuan, Haining Town, Zhejiang Province, also known as North Temple. The abbot of Qi 'an was also born in the imperial clan of the Tang Dynasty and took good care of him. So, Li Chen became a little novice monk here, and his dharma name was Joan Jun.

Later, he returned to the palace, and soon Tang Wuzong was going to die. Ma and others, eunuchs in the Tang Dynasty, discussed this. They thought that Li Chen had a low IQ and was suitable for being a puppet, so they appointed him as the emperor's great-uncle.

Unexpectedly, Li Chen was playing the fool, and soon everyone found that he was well-read and knowledgeable, even to the point where he never forgets anything, even the name of the little eunuch who swept the floor with water in the palace could be remembered. Moreover, he knows the talents and qualities of the court ministers like the back of his hand, and he is also familiar with the marking of the throne.

After he ascended the throne, he implemented a lot of benevolent policies, which made the treasury of the Tang Dynasty adequate, and some States had public funds as high as 3 million yuan.

However, Master Qi 'an, whom he followed, refused the invitation of the emperor and died soon. Li Chen was so sad that he wrote a mourning poem and built a stupa for the master.

In the Song Dynasty, Su Dongpo also wrote a poem "Wukong Zen Master Tower in North Temple". For this matter, the poem says: "The dust of the world has floated in the dream of China. Is the dragon more different from the face? Only the eyes of heaven should know heaven and earth. "
