After Zhu Wen replaced the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, which lasted for 289 years, completely ended its rule. Li Keyong, who had been at enmity with Zhu Wen earlier, has been using the slogan of reviving Down's family, on the one hand, to strengthen his power, on the other hand, to fight Zhu Wen to the end.
But Li Keyong was seriously ill, and everything went wrong before he died, knowing that he had no chance to realize his ambition and eradicate his enemies. So before he died, he called his favorite son Li Cun to his deathbed. Gave Li Cun three arrows.
What do these three arrows represent? How did Li Cunhuan finally achieve it?
Li Cunxu, also known as Li, a Jinyang native, was a strategist in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, and the founding emperor of the late Tang Dynasty. Li Cunxu was not born to Li Keyong's wife, but to his princess Cao Shi. But Li Cunhuan won Li Keyong's favor from an early age.
Because Li Cun was good at riding and shooting since he was a child, he was bold and open-minded, loved to read Spring and Autumn Annals, had a little knowledge of righteousness, and was good at temperament, so he was both civil and military.
In the later period of Li Keyong's struggle with Zhu Wen, Li Keyong was besieged by Zhu Wen's Liang for many times and was often worried. Li Cunhuan persuaded Keyong Li many times. He said: "Zhu Wen is now in power, but the extremes meet. Zhu Wen's actions, anger and resentment will eventually bring his own destruction. We just need to wait for the opportunity, accumulate strength and revitalize the Tang room. Not discouraged. "
Therefore, Li Keyong enlightened and relieved his son, which made him more prized.
Now let's see what the three arrows given by Li Keyong mean:
The first arrow, of course, was Zhu Wen, and Zhu Wen took the place of Tang. At that time, he wanted to burn Li Keyong. Of course, and Li Keyong are not * * * sworn enemies.
The second arrow represents the prince Liu Rengong. Liu Rengong was in my account at that time, and with the help of Li Keyong, his power grew, but also because of his interests, he took refuge in Zhu Wen and betrayed Li Keyong.
The third arrow represents Khitan Yeluboki. Khitan Yeluboji and I are Yorkshire brothers in Yunzhou. We agreed to crusade against Zhu Wen and Liu Rengong, but we didn't keep our promise because it was unprofitable. Finally, we turned to Zhu Wen and betrayed me.

Li Keyong can't kill these three thieves, he bears a grudge. So I gave Li Cun three arrows and told him to destroy these three enemies in the future to comfort Li Keyong's spirit in heaven. "Li enshrined these three arrows in the temple at home. Every time he goes to war, he will sacrifice them with imprisonment as a gift. He invited these arrows, put them in his toolkit, took them into battle, and then sent them home to the temple after victory. However, some people doubt the truth of Yukio Hatoyama's story.
First, after Li Cun acceded to the throne, he still befriended the Khitan, sent messengers to express condolences and gave Jingui to let the Khitan send troops to help himself, and the Khitan also sent troops to help Li Cun several times. Second, when Liu Shouguang, the second son of Liu Rengong, was attacked by his brother Liu Shouwen, Li Cunhuan also sent troops to help.
But it doesn't matter, maybe there is no revenge in this history, but the person who knows Li Keyong best must be his favorite son. This may be what Li Keyong wants to do most. When he is a son, it is finally realized for him. Li Cun just acceded to the throne, this kind of kindness to Liu Rengong and Qidan may be just a tactic to slow down for further development.
Li Cungang acceded to the throne, and his brothers and uncles refused. Li, Li, Li and others rebelled. With the support of Zhang and Li, he took the initiative and made decisive moves to stabilize the internal affairs of the later Tang Dynasty.
Then, in 908, in Mie Gang, Liang Jun was defeated, and the danger of Jin State was solved. In exchange for the development of Jin state for a period of time. In 9 1 1 year, the Licun faction angered General Liang, lured him to the plain wilderness south of Xiangyi and defeated Liang Jun.
In 9 13, Li personally conquered Yan State and captured Liu Rengong and Liu Shouguang. In 9 14 AD, Li returned to Taiyuan and executed Liu Rengong and his son in memory of Li Keyong.
In the 14th year of God Blessed (9 17), Lu Qibing, the secretariat of Shouzhou, crusaded against Qidan and led the army of Qidan to the south. Lu Ye Po, Emperor of Qidan, led 500,000 troops into Youzhou. Li Cunhuan sent 70,000 troops to the north for rescue. The Ministry of Li Siyuan defeated the Qidan army and lifted the siege of Youzhou. In this battle, the Jin army captured tens of thousands of people and seized countless cattle, sheep and trench. This is revenge for my father.
In April, 923, Licun was established, which was called the later Tang Dynasty in history. In the same year 10, Li Cun destroyed Liang, the late emperor Zhu Youzhen of Liang committed suicide, and Liang surrendered to Kaesong.
In Zhu Wen, as early as 9 12, Li Youzhou attacked Liu Shouguang. When Zhu Wen personally sent troops to rescue him, he was defeated and had to return to Beijing. I don't want to be killed by Zhu Youwen. Later, Zhu Youzhen staged a coup, killed Zhu, seized the throne of Li Cun, and indirectly killed Zhu Wen to avenge his father.
Then Li Cun brought down the former Shu, so far the Central Plains was basically unified, and he also fulfilled his father's last wish. If he didn't advance at first, he would retreat. He prefers actors, and actors are singers. He often wears BLACKPINK to play with actors.
Moreover, these actresses also hold the right to speak in the imperial court and are highly prized by Li Cun. These actresses not only make the imperial court increasingly corrupt, but also frame Zhongliang and fish the people.
And Li Cunxu immersed in debauchery all day, listening to the slanderers of the actors and eunuchs, even if the queen was in power, the people were poor. At this time, there was a rebellion. Li Si rebelled far away, but was supported by the rebels. With the help of actor Guo, he broke into the inner palace. A generation of lean Li Cun died in disorderly arrows.
