Chapter 57 Section 4 Yizong's personal administration

It is not hidden that Pang and his son planned to get rid of Xixia Yizong Li Liangzuo, but will the Liang family really listen to them obediently?Will Li Liangzuo fall into the trap? When Liang entered the palace and saw Li Liangzuo, he said, "The two of you are going to harm you, so you must not go."Not to mention the Liang family, anyone can understand this truth, the emperor has thick legs or you didn't hide the fact that the legs are thick?I am here at your fault, and I belong to the wrong party. Even if I listened to your words and lured Emperor Yizong to come, if you killed Emperor Yizong, I would have no good fruit to eat.Why don't I go to the emperor's side, and become a queen if I don't pay attention, why do I have to help you?What is the crime of regicide?No matter how wrong Li Liangzuo is, he is also the emperor, and the emperor can do whatever he wants.Is it the land of the king in the whole world, and the land of the land is the king's minister, who stipulates that the emperor can only choose unmarried concubines?So when he met the emperor, Mrs. Liang said everything.When the emperor heard it, since the matter has come to this point, I have no way out, so don't be polite, and don't blame me for not thinking of family ties.Therefore, the emperor issued a decree to summon the father and son of Wuzang Yepang into the palace.It's not true that Pang's father and son thought Liang's internal response, and the father and son came happily.As soon as they entered the palace gate, a general who hated Wuzang Yupang the most led the imperial palace guards and tied them up.Then on the Golden Palace, the emperor enumerated the crimes of the two of them for monopolizing power and harming the country one by one, and came to the conclusion that they should be beheaded, and they would be beheaded if they were pushed out.The whole family of the Wuzang family was copied and beheaded, and they were all killed, including the daughter of Wuzang Yepang, who was Li Liangzuo's original concubine, the Wuzang family.At that time, the emperor asked the queen, what are you going to do?The queen wailed and wanted to commit suicide, saying that my father and brother were dead, and I could commit suicide.The emperor said, you are very enlightened, so go ahead.This is what the emperor waited for. Empress Wuzang committed suicide and Liang was made empress.This year, Yizong Li Liangzuo was only fifteen years old. After punishing the country's prime minister, he got his name back and started to govern himself.

After Yizong came to power, he did a few things. Compared with his father, Li Yuanhao, his policies were somewhat different. First, in the year when he was in power, he sent people to return the cultivated land of the Song Dynasty occupied by Wuzang Yepang to the Song Dynasty.My treacherous minister uncle is ignorant, he has been punished and killed now, and now the land is returned, the two countries are friendly, and there will be no more wars.Of course the Song Dynasty was happy. When Wuzang Yupang was in power, he had been begging for so many years and hadn't returned. This young man is fine. A fifteen-year-old can do such an earth-shattering event.

Second, restore Han rituals instead of Fan rituals.Li Yuanhao adopted the etiquette of his own nation, and Yizong restored Han etiquette, and asked the Song Dynasty for classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics, "Cefu Yuangui".The Song Dynasty bestowed a large number of books. It is a good thing to ask for books from me. I am afraid that you will not want them. As long as you hold up the books and read "Ziyue Shiyun", you will definitely have a strong sense of inferiority. How good this is!Do you need a teacher?Wouldn't it be a good thing to follow along and teach Confucianism, so that Xixia would change from martial arts to literary?

Third, announced the restoration of the Li family who had been granted the surname by the Tang Dynasty.The earliest surname was Tuoba, then Li, then Zhao, and finally Wei Ming, and now they are back again. Fourth, ask the Song Dynasty for intermarriage.Can you marry a princess?This request was rejected by the Song Dynasty.The Song Dynasty’s excuse for refusing marriage is very funny. Although you have restored your surname to Li, don’t forget that the Song Dynasty also gave you the surname Zhao. Since you used to be named Zhao, and you are not married with the same surname, you can’t marry a girl from the Zhao family. , you are brothers and sisters, this is against human relations!But if you want cultural classics, silk, porcelain, and tea, there is no problem.The Song Dynasty also resumed the negotiating field on the border, doing business with Xixia.

Xia Yizong also set up many official positions with Han names in the court, and continued to implement the strategy of dividing the system between Fan and Han that had actually begun during the Yuanhao period. As soon as these measures were implemented, the national power of Xixia, which had declined during the reign of Wuzang Yepang, gradually recovered shortly after Liang Zuo took charge.
