Chapter 36 Section 6 "Perfect" Emperor

In 1125 AD, the Jin army completely wiped out the Liao Kingdom, and the long-cherished wish of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda was realized.But it is very regrettable that Aguda passed away before he could see all this.So, how did Aguda die?What is the evaluation of Jin Taizu in historical records? After Emperor Tianzuo was captured, one of the things that made him most gratified, or the thing that made him most happy, was that he saw his old enemy Wanyan Aguda died in front of him.Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda died on the way to the teacher.Most of the previous generations of Jurchen leaders died on the way of making great achievements and class teachers. I don’t know if they retired on purpose. Anyway, they created a good situation for their children and grandchildren.Wanyan Aguda's younger brother, Wanyan Wu Qimai succeeded him as Emperor Taizong.There is a Chinese proverb called the conclusion of a coffin, a person’s life can only be judged when the coffin is closed.So, how to evaluate Jin Taizu's life?

"Jin Shi Taizu Benji" records: "Taizu Yingmo Ruilue, open-minded and generous, knows people well, and makes people happy to use them.... Jin has been in the world for nine years, and Taizu has exhausted his strategies in a few years. There is no record, the great cause will be determined, and it will be passed on to the descendants.” Including today’s historians, they all used a word that Jin Taizu seldom used when evaluating people-perfect, this is a perfect person.The 119th year of the Jin Kingdom was the foundation laid by Taizu in the past few years. "History of Jin" was compiled by the people of the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty was established by the Mongols. The Mongols rose up because they resisted the Jin. It is said that they were against the Jin.Of course, the person who wrote "Golden History" should not be a Mongolian, but must be a Confucian official of the Han nationality.But for his old enemy, giving such a lofty evaluation, it can be seen that Jin Taizu can't find any faults no matter whether he uses military affairs to manage politics or his personal moral cultivation. The tribes, including their diplomatic plans against Song, fought for the best interests of Jin.

Jin Taizu's personal life was quite simple, and he went down to the river to take a bath with his officials. Obviously he was not greedy for money, and he was an outstanding founding king.Although he passed away, the national strength of Jin Kingdom is flourishing.After his death, Emperor Taizong succeeded to the throne. It is said that the old rival Liao Kingdom has also perished. Jin Kingdom has been fighting for more than ten years. At this time, it is best to recuperate and consolidate and digest the occupied areas.But once Emperor Taizong succeeded to the throne, the Kingdom of Jin waged a larger-scale foreign war. Who was it fighting this time?
