Chapter 103 Chapter 102 Wei Emperor Murong Chong

Murong Chong is the son of Murong Jun, the former Lord of Yan, and the younger brother of Murong Hong, the Lord of Western Yan.In the eleventh year of the Jianxi reign of the former Yan (370 A.D.), when the former Qin destroyed Yan, Murong Chong and his sister, Princess Qinghe, were also escorted to Chang'an, the capital of the former Qin state. Princess Qinghe was only 14 years old at the time, she was favored by Fu Jian, received in the harem, and was favored by Fu Jian.Murong Chong was only 12 years old at the time. He was handsome and handsome, and he was also very fond of Fu Jian, becoming Fu Jian's "male favorite".

As he grew older and experienced more, Murong Chong hated Fu Jian more and more, and longed for the restoration of the Yan Kingdom.In the nineteenth year of Jianyuan (AD 383), after Fu Jian was defeated in Feishui, Murong Chong's uncle Murong Chui and elder brother Murong Hong successively raised troops against Qin. After Chong was defeated, he took the remaining troops and defected to Murong Hong.In June of the first year of Yanxing in Xiyan (384 A.D.), after Murong Hong was killed, Murong Chong was supported as the emperor's younger brother, and then led troops to approach Chang'an, occupied Afang City, proclaimed himself emperor here, and changed Yuan Gengshi.

Murong Chong was young and energetic, and fought with the former Qin again and again as soon as he came to the throne, and both sides won and lost each other.In May, Murong Chong concentrated all his troops to launch a fierce attack on Chang'an, and finally captured Chang'an. After Murong Chong occupied Chang'an, his hatred for the former Qin Dynasty poured out for many years, and he ordered the officers and soldiers to loot wantonly.Although the officers and soldiers made a lot of money, they were all Xianbei people, and they all wanted to return home, eager to return to their hometown, while Murong Chong was greedy for Chang'an and did not want to return to the east.In this way, serious differences arose between the monarch and his ministers of Xiyan.In February of the second year of Gengshi (386 A.D.), Han Yan, the left general, led troops to attack and kill Murong Chong at the unanimous request of the officers and soldiers.General Duan Sui was established as the King of Yan.
