Why did Liang Wudi finally starve to death?

The reason is that he is too addicted to Buddhism and ignores political affairs, which leads to? Hou Jing rebellion? After the outbreak, he also died of starvation. Liang Wudi, the founder of Liang regime, made many positive achievements in his early days in power. At the beginning of his reign, he was diligent in government affairs and recruited talents. In order to facilitate North Korean officials and ordinary people to put forward their opinions to the court, Liang Wudi specially set up two wooden letters similar to the present suggestion box in front of the palace. Besides, although Liang Wudi is the king of a country, he is very frugal. Under his rule, the Liang Dynasty achieved good development.

But as he grew older, Liang Wudi gradually became addicted to Buddhism, and the degree of addiction was extraordinary. He believes in Buddhism and has built a large number of Buddhist temples in China, which are extremely magnificent. In addition, in order to show piety, Liang Wudi has repeatedly laid down his life as a monk. However, North Korean officials could not sit by and watch their monarch become a monk, so they had to go to the temple and ask Liang Wudi to return to the palace. But Liang Wudi didn't want to go back to the palace with them. Finally, some courtiers offered to donate money to the temple to show their sincerity, and he nodded.

Liang Wudi became a monk four times, although the court redeemed him with money every time, but this move still provided an opportunity for some treacherous court officials. In addition, Liang Wudi was very headstrong in his later years, and he didn't listen to exhortation at all, which made the Liang Dynasty, which was originally politically clear, gradually dim. At that time, Hou Jing, a vassal of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, launched a campaign in the second year after surrendering to the Liang Dynasty? Hou Jing rebellion? Liang Wudi is therefore subject to Hou Jing.

Hou Jing didn't simply kill Liang Wudi, but Liang Wudi was born to die in the end. After Liang Wudi was trapped, his diet gradually decreased. He was too old to get sick. This also made Liang Wudi weaker, and finally he spent his life in hunger.
