隋朝开国皇帝杨坚的统一征服揭秘他如何让北周静帝禅让的故事
杨坚是隋朝开国皇帝,当时北周仅仅成立了24年,静帝便禅让杨坚,这究竟是为什么呢?杨坚的父亲杨忠是北周军事贵族,武帝时期杨忠被封为随国公,此后杨坚继承父爵,并为上柱国。实际上杨坚在当上大丞相以后就有了篡权的计划,只是在等一个最佳的时机,直到静帝继位后,杨坚也做好了各方面的准备工作,这才能逼静帝主动禅让。
历史上那些肯放弃皇位的人,应该也没几位是出于真心。有人问,谁是古来得天下最为容易的君王?我觉得这是一个有意思的问题。容易是一个相对的概念。有人觉得汉高祖刘邦四十多岁起兵,依靠张良、韩信、萧何等人的帮助,最终取得了天下,是比较容易的一个;有人认为唐高祖李渊在儿子李建成和李世民等人的帮助下进驻长安,成为了唐朝的开国之君,也是比较容易的一个。
那么,Yang Jian why so easy to get the throne of the Xuanwu family? Where is the core reason?
According to historical records, Yang Jian was a person with extraordinary fate. He had five pillars on his forehead that entered into his skull, and his gaze shot outwards. This was what people called a good omen. At 15 years old, Yang Jian was appointed as a scatterer of horseback riders and carriages, an officer in charge of three offices, and given the title of Count of Chengji County by virtue of his father's merits. At 16 years old, he was promoted to General-in-Chief and added Governorship.
The main figure in charge of state affairs at that time even praised him: "This child has great character." Indeed, Yang Jian started ahead in life. When he held office, he was courteous and diligent; when he had children, he was filial and devoted.
Soon enough, Yang Jian won high approval from all corners - both courtiers and commoners alike admired him for being worthy. A good man gets help from three quarters.
At first when Emperor Wen ascended to power for fear against Empress Dowager Hu's son or nephew who might seize power later on during her regency period (regency), she sought support from other officials.
It happened that Yang Jian came into her favor -his daughter married Emperor Wen's eldest son-the Crown Prince.
Thus did this powerful minister become close allies with Emperor Wen-both were mutually benefiting each other through marriage ties.
As such they became closer than ever before-"the mother-in-law favored her own daughter's husband" which made them more influential at court.
Some claimed that although Yang Jian had no intention to be disloyal towards North Wei but its ruler believed it as divine will -that is ,it would be impossible for someone like yang jian to threaten North Wei rule .
After death of emperor wen,yang jian’s daughter became empress dowager
He himself received the rank as Chancellor-General-of-the-Rights-and-Left-and-Governor-of-Right-of-the-State,
And thus further solidified his grip over state affairs
In fact some people thought yang jian could have been treacherous but emperor wen still trusted him fully
he left yang jian in charge while going out
and often let him take care of governing matters while abroad
yangjian grew increasingly powerful till finally after deathof emperor wen who died too weakly too illto control things anymore,yangjian took advantage
in AD 581,BY virtue Of His Position As The Father-In-Law To The Childless Emperor Xuan And His Influence In Court,YANG JIAN WAS ABLE TO FORCE THE YOUNG EMPEROR TO ABDICATE IN HIS FAVOR AND ESTABLISH HIMSELF AS THE NEW RULER OF CHINA UNDER THE NAME OF SUISUI DYNASTY
