As an emperor, why did Liang Wudi starve to death?

Liang Wudi ascended the throne in 502 and lived 549 years. He reigned for 47 years and lived 86 years. Emperor Gaozong Qianlong of Qing Dynasty reigned for 60 years, actually reigned for 64 years, and lived for 89 years. Compared with Qianlong, if Liang Wudi hadn't starved to death, he might not be the longest-lived emperor.

Then why did he starve to death?

Bottom line: old fool.

First of all, after Xiao Yan became emperor, he became a monk again and again.

It's almost harsh on yourself. According to historical records, Liang Wudi only eats one meal a day, and a piece of clothing can last for many years. He is a vegetarian, does not eat meat, and believes in Buddhism. The last time he became a monk, he became a monk for 37 days, and the country could not live without a monarch for a day. At last the minister raised 100 million yuan to redeem him. As the ancients said, Xiao Yan was possessed, not a Buddha, but possessed. As for what he wants through Buddhism, we don't know.

After becoming a monk for four times, the money redeemed cost 400 million, equivalent to 4 billion. This is an ancient conversion, wasting people and money, but I don't know.

Secondly, we know the most ruthless emperor.

Xiao Yan, who was possessed by Buddhism, began to become "bodhisattva-hearted", but he was only kind to his family. Xiao Yan defended his mistake, which is known to all scholars who study history. However, family members are not necessarily kind to Xiao Yanren, so this is a disaster. However, Xiao Yan still didn't learn the lesson, just dismissed from office and considered it. The king's decrees and authority were destroyed by Xiao Yan, and the dynasty was in chaos.

Third, the acceptance of Hou Jin led to the "Hou Jing Rebellion"

In 547 AD, Hou Jinlai, a general of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, surrendered. Liang Wudi thought he had infinite statutes and influence on the world, so he accepted him and made him a general. At that time, the whole world knew that Hou Jing was unreliable, so they protested to Liang Wudi. Liang Wudi didn't listen to advice and appointed Hou Jing as the general, which eventually led to the "Hou Jing Rebellion"! After the rebellion in Hou Jing, the capital fell,

Finally, the rebels invaded Jiankang City, trapped Miyagi, and then diverted the five lakes to Manmia, and the monk Liang Wudi was trapped in the palace. There was nothing to do and no one asked him.

The emperor finally starved to death in his palace.

"The Mirror of unofficial history, China" also records: "In March of the third year of Taiqing (AD 549), Hou Jing captured Miyagi. Xiao Yan's diet was cut off, and his mouth was bitter. He even shouted, "Dear! Dear. " Finally, he starved to death in Ju Jing Hall at the age of 86.
