Chapter 684 The Young Master of Taiyuan
Lin Ke smiled, clearly also observing the comments.
"Ahem, let's get back to the main topic. This episode is about a man of dragon-like bearing and phoenix-like grace, a man of heavenly appearance, the young master of Taiyuan, the Heavenly Khan, the Prince of Qin, the General of Heavenly Strategy... the governor of Asia, the leader of the Eastern Hemisphere, Emperor Taizong of Tang, the Second Phoenix Li Shimin!"
Lin Ke finished speaking in one breath, almost catching her breath, and stopped to drink some water to catch her breath.
Wan Chaozhongren: Is the title really that long??
Hearing the long introduction of Li Shimin by his juniors, he felt a little proud.
That's right, he's that amazing! Although I don't quite understand what "Asian Governor" or "Eastern Hemisphere Leader" means, it's probably a compliment to him!
Meanwhile, in the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Che was envious again, and humphed, addressing the First Emperor as "Ancestral Dragon" or "Brother Zheng".
When it's his turn, he's called a pig. Now look what's happened! There are so many phoenix titles out there, can't the younger generation come up with some nicer ones for him?!
Damn it, I hope I don't find the person who named him Pig!
An author, engrossed in writing, sneezed: ????? Hehe, elusive!
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, from the early Tang Dynasty, were also somewhat sour: Damn it! He got fooled again!!!
Meanwhile, in the distant Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di thought to himself with delight, "My title is not bad either; I even have a Western name!"
There are other names given by later generations. Some are angry that the younger generation is narrow-minded and disrespectful to their ancestors, while others just laugh it off. What's there to be angry about? Aren't they all affectionate nicknames?
"The Tang Dynasty lasted a total of 289 years, through 21 emperors. Among them, Emperor Taizong had an extremely strong presence and prestige far surpassing his father, as did all the emperors who followed him."
"It can be called the white moonlight of the Tang Dynasty. I heard that people in the Northern Song Dynasty went to Zhaoling to cry, but not in the Southern Song Dynasty, because that would be considered going abroad."
The Song Dynasty emperors, furious and heartbroken: !! What a hellish joke!!
Li Yuan, who was equally angry, said: "Enough! If you praise me any more, I'll cause a scene!"
At this moment, Li Shimin, who felt he had been constantly praised, was like: ????????)
"Since we're telling the story of Emperor Taizong of Tang, we must begin at the end of the Sui Dynasty."
"We have already mentioned the story of Yang Guang. Emperor Yang of Sui was very impatient and exploited the people's labor, often involving millions of people. The great situation left to him by his father was gradually depleted in one infrastructure construction war after another."
"When a new emperor sits idly by and watches the people suffer, peasant uprisings become an inevitable occurrence."
"Besides, in the final days, it's a grand stage. If you have the guts, go for it. If you lose, you lose. But if you win, your family tree will be started separately, and history will record your story. Even unknown people are willing to take the gamble."
"Thus, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, various uprising forces emerged, some seeking survival and escaping conscription, others rebelling against the Sui Dynasty, and the number of these forces was no less than a hundred. It is evident that Emperor Yang of Sui had long lost the hearts of the people and was disliked by them."
Yang Jian & Dugu Jialuo: ...〒_〒...
Even before the Sui Dynasty collapsed, there were already rebel armies. Let's pick out some of the more typical ones to mention.
"First, there's Li Mi of Wagangzhai, a key rebel force at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Unlike other rebel leaders, he was a genuine nobleman."
"Going back three generations, his father, his grandfather, and his great-grandfather were all famous figures or generals at the time."
"By his generation, he was even more amazing. He directly rebelled against the Sui Dynasty! Moreover, he was good at planning, loved military books, and was both a scholar and a warrior. He had a great ideal—to save the world and help the people."
Li Kuan, who was still alive at the time, thought: "You unfilial son! This is going to kill your father!!"
