How did Huan Zong of Xixia govern the country? Why did Li Anquan usurp power?

11On September 20th, 1993, in the 24th year of Xia You, Xia Renzong died in Li Renxiao at the age of 70. His posthumous title is Emperor Shengde, the temple name is Renzong, and the mausoleum is Shouling. Li Renxiao reigned for 54 years and was one of the longest reigning emperors in Xixia history. After his death, the throne was succeeded by his eldest son, Li Chunyou, that is, Xia Huanzong in Xixia history.

Li Chunyou 17 years old succeeded to the throne. /kloc-ascended the throne in 0/4, actually ruled 12, succeeded at the end of 24 years, and was deposed at the beginning of Tianqing 13. Externally, the rise of the Mongolian khanate posed a serious threat to Xixia. Internally, from the late Injong period, Xixia's national strength began to weaken, because with the stability of the country and the development of feudal production relations, the Tangut Qiang nobles began to covet ease and gradually decay.

By the time Huan Zong succeeded to the throne, the struggle for power and interests of the Qiang nobles in Xixia was out of control, and the shadow of extinction was sweeping Xixia. Faced with such a national situation, Xia Huanzong basically inherited the internal and external policies of Xia Renzong, supported the people internally and relied heavily on Jin and Song externally. Under the advocacy of the ruling class, Buddhist activities in Xixia flourished. Xia Huanzong's mother, Queen Luo, is a religious believer who deeply believes in and loves Buddhism.

During this period, the development and prosperity of Buddhism in Xixia were mainly manifested in three aspects: large-scale Buddhist activities, the compilation of Buddhist scriptures in Xixia and the compilation of Buddhist scriptures translated into Chinese. In particular, the pioneering work of translating Tibetan scriptures into Xixia language was not found in the Liao and Jin regimes of the same period. These activities enriched the contents of the Tibetan scriptures in Xixia.

Huanzong in Xixia maintained a harmonious and friendly relationship with Jin. Politically, the two sides often send envoys to each other; Economically, market trade has resumed; Culturally, celebrities of the two countries communicate with each other, and when performing their tasks, they also spread their own culture to the other country. Although the measures of Huanzong in Xixia maintained the stability and prosperity of Xixia since Renzong to a certain extent, these measures failed to reverse the trend of Xixia kingdom from prosperity to decline.

Wu Guangcheng, a historian in Qing Dynasty, once said, "The best is the best." During his 14 years in power, there was no flood or drought in this country. This is a small country in Xixia, but it can follow the old seal and is safe, so it is good at preservation. That is to say, between the imperial court and the imperial court, he has never heard of negligence. This is because I live in sin, I lost my love for my family, my status was deprived, I died, and my status was wasted. Alas! "As an individual, Xia Huanzong's kindness is a commendable virtue, but in terms of political struggle and the supreme ruler of a country, his weakness led to the loss of the throne.

Li Anquan is the grandson of Li Zongganshun and the son of Li Renyou in Betty Wong. Li Renyou is the younger brother of Injong Li Renxiao. When Renzong destroyed Ren Dejing, Li Renyou captured Ren Derong and Ren Deren. This made it difficult for Ren Dejing to sing and was finally killed. Therefore, Li Renyou was named Betty Wong by Xia Renzong.

Li Anquan was violent by nature and sinister at heart. After Li Renyou's death, Li Anquan asked to inherit his father's title, but Huan Zong disagreed. Instead, he became the king of towns and counties, and the seeds of hatred were planted in Li Anquan's heart. In order to plot to usurp power, Li Anquan lured North Korean ministers to use power. On the other hand, he used divination to create public opinion to usurp power.

In August of the 11th year of Tianqing, Gou and Lin wore two songs to the people. Let the Royal Guards occupy it, saying "one country, two main features". Xi, hence storage usurp plot ". With the help of Li Anquan's biology and divination, he conspired to usurp power and convinced the people of China that he was following God's will to replace Li Chunyou. At the same time, Li Anquan also made military preparations.

Yizhen County, where Li Anquan lived, was originally Ganzhou in Xixia. 1037, Xixia was promoted to Ganzhou and became a real county. Ganzhou is an important channel connecting the Central Plains and the Western Regions. Weak water in the west, Qinghai in the south and Juyan in the north.

Use the rich resources of Ganzhou, Li Anquan to cultivate his wings. In the end, Li Anquan realized his political ambition by virtue of its economic and military strength and the advantages of cooperation with Empress Dowager Cixi. In the 13th year of Qing Dynasty, Wang Anquan, who had been in power for a long time, conspired with Xia Huanzong's mother, Queen Roche, to launch a palace coup, deposed Li Chunyou, made himself emperor, and changed Yuan to Yingtian. In March of that year, 30-year-old Li Chunyou died suddenly. Posthumous title is the "Emperor", the temple is the "Emperor Huan" and the mausoleum is the "Zhuang Ling".

A security guard who has been in office for six years. During this period, due to the rulers' dissatisfaction with usurpation and Mongolia's invasion of Xixia, Jin refused to help, which led to the collapse of the relationship between Xia and Jin from the original alliance. As a result, Xixia began to implement the foreign strategy of "invading gold", which not only caused heavy losses, but also benefited Mongolian fishermen.

Mongolia did not give up its aggression against Xixia because of its attachment to Xixia. During this period, Mongolia conquered Xixia twice, and Zhongxing House was besieged, which accelerated the decline and demise of Xixia.
