The truth about Song Taizu's death.

The mystery of Song Taizu's sudden death. Zhao Kuangyin's mother Du has five sons, namely Kuang Ji, Kuang Yin, Kuang Yi, Kuang Mei and Kuang Zan. Among them, Ji and Zan died very early. After Song Taizu Kuang Yin acceded to the throne, Du Fu became the Empress Dowager, and the emperor's younger brother Yi Kuang was named Guangyi, later Emperor Taizong. Kuang Mei, also known as Guang Mei and Yan Mei, was named King of Qin. Later, he was killed by his third brother Taizong. 7a * a w 1]& amp； V3{ Du's family education is very strict and insightful. When Zhao Kuangyin became emperor, she warned her son, "Since you are the son of heaven, you should know that it is not easy to be a monarch. If you are above Zhao Min, of course you can respect this person. If it is properly managed, if it is out of control, it may not be able to control it. " As a result, when Taizu was in power, he eliminated the drama-cutting forces around him, swept away the disadvantages of the Five Dynasties and rectified the chaos. He reigned at 65,438+07, but God did not help others. In the middle of June11976, Taizu suddenly died at the age of 50. & ampG#D:S4s7？ 9i0O's sudden death about Mao is unknown, which has become an eternal mystery. But there are two popular sayings in history. One is the story of the sound of candles and axes. In the Song Dynasty, there was a monk named Wen Ying, who wrote a notebook called Shan Ye in Hunan, and recorded this rumor in a subtle and tortuous way. At the beginning of 976, Taizu met a disorderly Taoist priest and asked him to tell his fortune. The Taoist said, "As long as the night of June 65438+ 10/2 is sunny, you can prolong your life for 20 years. If not, your life will be exhausted. Arrange the funeral quickly. From then on, Mao was full of anxiety and waited for this day to come. 65438+1October 12 finally arrived, and Taizu came to Taiqing Pavilion alone that night to watch the astronomical phenomena. At the beginning, the stars were bright and the sun was bright. Mao was very happy, but it didn't last long. Suddenly, there were clouds everywhere, and snow and hail plummeted. Stopped, MAO turned pale and said nothing, and returned to his bedroom. Mao went back to the inner room and knew that he would not live long. He arranged the funeral affairs first, then called the emperor's younger brother Guangyi to the palace, retired all the eunuchs and maids, and drank with him. Those who were told to wait outside the door looked from a distance and saw a figure moving on the curtain, making a refusal. Later, they saw Mao poking in the snow outside the door with an axe and shouting, "Easy! Well done! " That night, Mao died. This is the most popular sound of candle shadow axe. , r3S-L, c:] "l: u w After the death of Taizong, Brother Guangyi succeeded to the throne for Taizong. However, the legitimacy of his succession is really doubtful. Sima Guang pointed out in the Story of Surabaya that on the night of Mao's crash, the Queen quickly sent an official Wang Jien to page Mao's fourth son Fang De. Wang Jien and Guangyi have a long history. He came to Kaifeng to preach Guangyi. Queen Song heard footsteps and asked who it was. Jean replied, "The King of Jin has arrived!" The queen was shocked. When she looked again, it was really Uncle Guangyi. She exclaimed, "Our mother and son's lives are protected by the government." According to Sima Guang's records, when Mao died, there was no testamentary edict of Guangyi, but Guangyi actually seized the throne by playing politics. However, for the death of Tai Group, Sima Guang was also secretive and avoided talking about it. forum
