Li Yu is incompetent? Only love? All wet! Take you to the real Emperor Wen Qing.

Li Yu was born on Qixi in the first year of Shengyuan in the Southern Tang Dynasty (937). He is the sixth son of Emperor Li Jing of the Southern Tang Dynasty. After birth, the lips are red and the teeth are white, which is very beautiful. Li Jing named him "Li", and Li Yu was his own later name. Royal children, if not the eldest son, would not get along well, so Li Yu actually didn't get much attention from birth to growth, even didn't get much attention. When he grew up, because Xiao Li was good at writing poems, loved painting, had sharp eyes, was very talented and looked awkward, so Prince Li Hongji was very jealous of him at that time, and Li Yu didn't want to participate in these party and government affairs in the imperial court. He is obsessed with literature, art and Buddhism.

Soon after, Li Hongji, a classmate who was jealous all day, died of illness. Excavate saw that the prince was dead, and the second child had received the box lunch from the fifth. He picks and chooses, and Li Yu is quite good. Do you want him to be a prince? Unexpectedly, this idea was strongly opposed by Minister Zhong Mo. Zhong Mo looked down on the literary youth Li Yu and resolutely opposed it. He said that Li Yu learned to write, draw and play the flute in one day. Li Jing was very angry. I chose the prince. You are the minister. You're here to tell me what to do. what can I do for you? Li Jing was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. Zhong Mo was dismissed and exiled to Raozhou (now Poyang County, Jiangxi Province).

The more someone refuses to do something, the more Li Jing wants to do it. He promoted Li Yu, who was originally the king of the county, to the king of Wu, let Li Yu live in the palace of the prince and help him deal with government affairs. Soon after, Li Jing did not adapt to Jinling (now Nanjing), the capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and decided to move to Hongzhou (now Nanchang, Jiangxi). He said he was leaving, but he left Li Yu in Jinling and was pushed to the crown prince's prison.

In the second year of Stegosaurus (96 1), Li Jing died, leaving this riddled southern Tang empire to Li Yu, but Li Yu was lazy and didn't want to bother. He ascended the throne directly in Jinling as the third emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, that is, from this time on, he lost his real name Li and changed his name to "Li Yu". When he became emperor, the Northern Song Dynasty had been established. The Northern Song Dynasty had a strong national strength, and it was no problem to fight ten Southern Tang Dynasties. The first thing Li Yu did when he became emperor was to send someone to pay tribute to the Northern Song Dynasty, indicating that he was an obedient little brother. At that time, the Northern Song Emperor Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was also very happy. He wrote back and wished Li Yu a happy throne. Li Yu has no problem at all. The Northern Song Dynasty was quiet and friendly to him. He turned to do the second thing, that is.

The Northern Song Dynasty put too much pressure on these small countries at the end of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Li Yu's every step is treading on thin ice. He paid tribute to the Northern Song Dynasty when he had something to do. Today, the silver will be tomorrow, which made the Northern Song Dynasty have a good impression on this respectful little brother. There are frequent contacts between the two countries. You gave me something, and I gave you something. The Northern Song Dynasty not only returned something to the Southern Tang Dynasty, but also returned all the 1,000 soldiers in the Southern Tang Dynasty to Li Yu. This made Li Yu very unhappy. I am an emperor, too. Are you bossing me around like this to save face? He protested, but was directly ignored by the Northern Song Dynasty court.

As an emperor, Li Yu is actually quite responsible. His life can be half work and half entertainment, and the distribution is very reasonable. At work, he talked with ministers about state affairs and held meetings all night. Moreover, he has a good personality, loves the people like a son, and has implemented many policies that benefit the people and the country. Today, taxes and corvees are reduced, the official system is reformed, and imperial examinations are held to attract talents. After years of war, the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty lived in this kind king. Then how can he dispel this concern? Li Yu, a literary youth, has his own way.

Li can be described as versatile. He can write articles, poems, paintings and music, not just for fun. He has great attainments in the history of China. He is very professional in playing and engaging in art, and has made many small achievements in his time, such as becoming the most influential poet in the Five Dynasties and Ten Countries, such as restoring the lost song "Nishang" in the Tang Dynasty with his strong musical talent. Moreover, he runs the country while playing, and does not delay state affairs. As early as when his old Jing was emperor, the Southern Tang Dynasty was already a vassal state of the Northern Song Dynasty. In order to show loyalty, he also reduced the establishment of Nantang, which led to a sharp decline in Nantang's military strength. When the country was handed over to Li Yu, it was already difficult to compete with the Northern Song Dynasty, but Li Yu did not give up. He stood firm, defended every inch of the country, repaired the country's internal affairs and spared the people.

In October of the fourth year of Kaibao (97 1), Song Taizu wiped out Nanhan, the neighbor of Nantang. When Li Yu heard about it, he was very scared. He understood Song Taizu's intention and should tidy up himself after finishing Nanhan. Seeing the bad places, he removed the title of his country. He no longer called himself "I" and changed it to "the Lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty". He wants to use it. Send people to the Southern Tang Dynasty every day, and invite Li Yu to the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty and Song Taizu for tea. Li Yu is also a chicken thief. Buying me tea is bullshit. If you leave, you must arrest me. Every time you invite him, he will lie about being ill and say nothing.

He refused the invitation to have dinner and tea with Song Taizu, and his mood was extremely bad. In court, he cried with the minister, which means that the country is in danger, water under the bridge. There is no other way but to fight to the death. At this time, Li Yu finally took off her docile disguise. He is no longer the literary youth who is obsessed with art, but the last emperor who shoulders the responsibility and the rise and fall of the country. When these words reached Song Taizu, Mao was very angry. You are a small country in Nantang. I'll give you some face. You don't want it. So he invaded Nantang territory on a large scale, because most of Nantang's land was in the south, so the two armies fought, with more water wars and less land wars, but in any case, Nantang in Serenade was no match for the Northern Song Dynasty. Although the war was tense and fierce, Li Yu was not discouraged.

He turned to another neighbor, Wu Yueguo, for help. Because he is a neighbor, his lips are dead and his teeth are cold, but Qian Chu, the king of Wu Yue, is a negative faction. He believes that the general trend of the world will be divided after a long time, and the land of China will be owned by the Northern Song Dynasty sooner or later, so instead of helping Li Yu, he joined forces with the Northern Song Dynasty to attack the Southern Tang Dynasty. Li Yu was in a hurry, but his neighbors didn't help him. He also asked for help from the distant Khitan dynasty, which was intended to help. Far water can't put out a near fire. It's really a cry of no every day, but it doesn't work. Li Yu was cornered. He sent messengers to the Northern Song Dynasty to discuss whether there was room for manoeuvre, but he got a cold reply from Song Taizu. Song Taizu said: On the edge of the sofa, how can others snore and sleep? In December of the eighth year of Kaibao (975), Jinling City, the capital of Nantang, was broken, but Li Yu had no choice but to surrender and Nantang died.

After the surrender, Li Yu was captured by the northern song army and taken to the capital. In order to show his preferential treatment to prisoners, Song Taizu named Li Yu "disobedient", which is a good joke. In fact, Li Yu's confrontation with the Northern Song Dynasty was overreaching and against his destiny. Although Li Yu surrendered and stayed in the Song Dynasty, he always missed the homeland of the Southern Tang Dynasty. During this period, he created a series of ancient poems, such as Yu Meiren, Meeting You Huan, Langtaosha and so on. , changed the characteristics of luxuriant words when he was emperor, and began to become sad. Deeply entrusted with his unspeakable feelings as the king of national subjugation, he also reached a new peak in the history of China literature. In 978, Li Yu died of grief and indignation. Coincidentally, the day he died was also the Qixi Festival of that year.

Throughout Li Yu's life, he took over the riddled Southern Tang from his father, and there was nothing he could do. The situation in the world was a foregone conclusion. But Li Yu worked hard and refused to be the king of national subjugation. When he was in North China, he worked hard and served the country and people. In his spare time, he added a lot of colors to Korean culture. He was resolute and fearless in wartime, but he just maintained the dilapidated regime of Nantang for fifteen years.
