Tang Taizong Li Shimin's film and television stills
Tang The poetry world is full of stars, and there are many people who can write poetry.
However, when it comes to emperors who can write poetry, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty Li Shimin must be on the list.
The opening work of "Complete Tang Poetry" is Li Shimin's "Imperial Temple".
"Qinchuan Xiongdi House, Hangu Zhuang Imperial House" , it can be said to be magnificent, 10 words describe the majesty of the Tang Dynasty Chang'an .
" The Sutra of Xue Ju Battlefield ", "The heart follows the bright moon, and the ambition is clean with the autumn frost" , expressing ambition and integrity, and expressing its voice.
In "Passing the Old House", "The garden is deserted and the path is broken, and the ancient Taiwan is half slanted. The pool in front disappears from the old water, and the trees bloom today's flowers" , vitality can still be seen in the bleakness.
For a long time, Li Shimin has been regarded as one of the few wise emperors in Chinese history.
straight male literature and history course, like 1811
He founded the "Zhenguan Governance". He was praised by Mao Zedong as the most capable person in war. He has the reputation of " Days Khan ".
People discuss his great martial arts and pay attention to his emotional gossip, or they controversial about his killing of his brother and usurping the throne and bloody coup.
But in fact, Li Shimin is not inferior at all in literature.
Just the song "Gived to Xiao Yu (yǔ)" I will talk about next, which is enough for him to occupy a place in the Tang Dynasty poetry world.
The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the swaying swaying knows the sincere ministers.
The brave man knows righteousness, and the wise must be kind.

Title "Give Xiao Yu " is not difficult to understand. This is a poem given to Xiao Yu by Li Shimin.
The name Xiao Yu may be a little unfamiliar with you, but in fact he has known him for a long time.
In the original text of "Journey to the West", Guanyin Bodhisattva came to Chang'an in order to find the one who seeks the sutra.
She turned into a monk, holding a cassock tin staff , and went to the street to sell. The person who chatted with Guanyin and introduced her to Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin is the protagonist in this poem: Prime Minister Xiao Yu.
This person, Xiao Yu, is of great origin.
He is the seventh son of Emperor Ming of Liang Xiao Kui, and is the brother-in-law of Emperor Yang of Sui Yang Guang, and Emperor Gaozu of Tang Li Yuan and Xiao Yu's wife are aunts, uncles, cousins (who kind reader can tell me what the relationship is). The relationship between
is really complicated.
Xiao Yu first became an official in the dynasty of Emperor Yang of Sui.
Later, seeing that his brother-in-law was serious and ruined the country, Xiao Yu was heartbroken and angry.
At this time, Li Shimin brought Li Yuan's letter to ask Xiao Yu to discuss the plan together.
From then on, Xiao Yu was devoted to Li Tang 's arms, from Li Yuan to Li Shimin, he was diligent.
But it is both funny and sad that over the past decades, Xiao Yu's life can be described as:
rise and fall rise and fall rise and fall rise and fall rise and fall.
Xiao Yu has been called minister six times and was dismissed six times, which is unique in history.

Xiao Yu is a man with strong ability and good character. The only thing that is not very pleasing is that he can't control his mouth.
The first time Xiao Yu was dismissed from prime minister was because one time when Xiao Yu and another prime minister Chen Shuda disagree, and the two started arguing on the spot.( Tang Dynasty adopts the system of general ministers, with the chiefs of the three provincial governors as prime ministers, namely the Shangshu Ling and Shangshu Left and Pushe of the Shangshu in html, the Zhongshu Ling and the Zhongshu Supervisor, and the Shizhong in the Menxia Province. The number of prime ministers at the same time could reach more than ten.)
usually looks at the two ministers who are very gentle and solemn, and their quarrels are red and their saliva is spitting.
Li Shimin persuaded him several times, but he couldn't stop him.
clay man also has a temper, not to mention that he is not.
Li Shimin first ascended the throne at this time. On the one hand, in order to intimidate the ministers, on the other hand, he was indeed angry. He pushed the imperial case and left with his sleeves.
After a short while, an imperial edict was circulated:
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda were in the position, but they were disrespectful to each other and dismissed all their official positions. Go home and think about it behind closed doors.
Xiao Yu was dismissed from office and returned home. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more sad he became. He suddenly couldn't get sick.
After Li Shimin found out, he felt uncomfortable and suddenly felt that he was a little too much.
After all, that person is Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu who has always been loyal to him. After the change of Xuanwu Gate , the key figure behind Li Shimin was Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu convinced Li Yuan and made Li Shimin the crown prince, and soon abdicated as the emperor.
So, Li Shimin and Xiao Yu can't be an ordinary relationship between the king and the minister. It is clearly a relationship of love, killing, supporting each other and forgetting each other but not getting together.

Not long after, Xiao Yu was re-activated and served as the Prime Minister of the current dynasty.
Li Shimin also married his eldest daughter Princess Xiangcheng to Xiao Yu's son. The two of them are kissing each other this time.
5 months later, Xiao Yu was dismissed from the prefect because he was jealous of others.
The truth was soon found out, and Xiao Yu became prime minister for the third time.
Then he stopped prescription, appointed, stopped prescription, appointed... The reason is mostly because of his mouth that likes to "spoke in a straightforward way", which often makes Li Shimin both annoyed and angry.
wished he could chop his head, but then he remembered his goodness again.
About the fourth time when Xiao Yu became prime minister, Li Shimin praised Xiao Yu for "Your loyalty and integrity, but the ancients just said."
Your loyalty and honesty are beyond the reach of the ancients.
Then he wrote this "Praise Poem" and gave it to Xiao Yu, expressing his affirmation and praise for his many years of loyalty:
The wind knows the strong grass, and the stern knows the sincere minister.
A brave man knows righteousness, and a wise man must be kind.
Only in the fierce and rapid wind can we see which grass is the toughest; only in the turbulent era can we recognize which ministers are the most loyal.
There are only a brave man, but he knows what the true "righteousness" is; a true wise man must be kind and kind.

"The wind is shaking, the strong grass" is not actually the original creation of Li Shimin. It was originally from the mouth of Emperor Guangwu of Han, Liu Xiu.
However, it is Li Shimin who has passed down these 5 words and is popular for the ages.
He cleverly followed the five words "Ban Dang Knows the True Minister" and made these 10 words a symbol of personality power and a motto that inspires countless people in the future.
Life will not be smooth sailing, everything will have ups and downs.
Just like grass has to experience the invasion of frost, wind, rain and snow, just like people always have to suffer the pain and hardship.
endured it and survived it.
Grass grows and grows strong, and people eventually become great.
