When Zhou Yuxi said these three words, her voice obviously increased by several decibels. You could hear that it was a kind of excitement, just like picking up money!
However, let alone her, even I was a little stunned when I heard these three words, and then I looked incredulous!
An Qingxu? ?
"Wait, who are you talking about again?" To be sure, I asked Zhou Yuxi again.
"Lin Jiu, An Qingxu, An Qingxu! Lin Jiu, do you hear me clearly?" Zhou Yuxi seemed to be going crazy in her words. Although she was a little rude, I can understand that a person like her who studies history would feel uncomfortable after learning about a period of history. My mood afterwards.
After getting confirmation from Zhou Yuxi again, my heart became excited again. Who is this An Qingxu? ?
I believe that most people who study Chinese history know him. Even if they don't know An Qingxu, they must know his father. The "Anshi Rebellion" that caused great trauma to the Tang Dynasty in ancient China was An Qingxu's father and the instigator. Created by Lushan.
If the owner of this tomb is really An Qingxu, then the contents of the previous murals can be completely explained. It was not a civil war in the Tang Dynasty at all, but a bloody rebellion against the Tang Dynasty.
So what happened to the "Anshi Rebellion"?
The "Anshi Rebellion", also known as the "Tianbao Rebellion", was a war launched by the Tang Dynasty generals An Lushan and Shi Siming after they betrayed the Tang Dynasty from the late Xuanzong to the early Daizong years of the Tang Dynasty. It was a civil war in which the Tang Dynasty competed for dominance. It also started from the Sheng Dynasty. The turning point of decline.
This civil war caused the Tang Dynasty to lose a large number of people and its national power was sharply reduced. Because the commanders who initiated the rebellion against the Tang Dynasty were An Lushan and Shi Siming, the incident was named "Anshi".
I have mentioned before that during the Tang Dynasty, during the heydays of Taizong and Xuanzong, the Tang Dynasty’s national power reached its peak, so various foreign states and nomadic peoples also surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. That’s why some foreign states were promoted to generals because of their loyalty. example of.
This also gave An Lushan, Shi Siming and others an opportunity to take advantage of.
In the late Kaiyuan period, peace had lasted for a long time and the country was in peace. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty gradually lost his spirit of seeking governance from above. After Tang Xuanzong changed Yuan Tianbao, politics became more corrupt. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty indulged in pleasure and favored Concubine Yang. An Lushan worshiped Concubine Yang as his mother for self-protection and promotion. He changed from advocating frugality to spending money like water. For example, he once gave Li Linfu a year's tribute from various places. He also handed over the state affairs to Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong successively. Li Linfu was a sweet-talking prime minister. During his tenure, he relied on Xuanzong's trust to exercise power exclusively for nineteen years. Yang Guozhong succeeded Li Linfu as prime minister because Yang Guifei was favored. He only knew how to plunder people's wealth, which led to a group of petty people taking over. The state affairs were deteriorating and the government was corrupt, which gave An Lushan an opportunity.
At that time, Anlu Mountain and the Three Military Towns were in sole control of the army, among which 150,000 elite Tang Dynasty regular troops were supporting the border areas. His men were brave and good at fighting, and were favored by Xuanzong, which attracted the jealousy of Prime Minister Yang Guozhong. The two became enemies because of this, but Tang Xuanzong did not interfere. An Lushan had a long-standing ambition and a large number of troops, intending to raise his troops to rebel against the Tang Dynasty in the name of crusade.
In short, I will not go into details about the process. Anyway, although this battle ended with the victory of the Tang Dynasty, it suddenly wiped out all the luck that the Tang Dynasty had accumulated for decades.
From this time on, the originally prosperous Tang Dynasty began to decline. It can be said that the collapse of the Tang Dynasty was inseparable from the "Anshi Rebellion".
This also gave rise to the saying that "people who are not from my tribe must have different intentions"!
And the An Qingxu that Zhou Yuxi mentioned just now is the son of An Lushan, one of the masterminds of the "Anshi Rebellion". His contribution in the rebellion against the Tang Dynasty was not small!
An Qingxu is An Lushan's second son, and his mother Kang is An Lushan's first wife. An Qingxu was good at horseback riding and archery, and was favored by An Lushan. Before he was twenty years old, he was awarded the official title of Hongluqing and concurrently served as the prefect of Guangyang. It can be said that he was young and successful, but his desire was not satisfied with this.
The contributions made by this young master during the An-Shi Rebellion are countless, but An Qingxu also did a good deed. At the end of the An-Shi Rebellion, because he was not satisfied with living under his father for a long time, he killed his father and stood up for himself. Killed An Lushan.
Therefore, good people cannot emerge from the pile of beasts. It is estimated that An Lushan would not expect to be killed by his own son, but people do it and God is watching. The end of An Qingxu will not be much better. Self-reliance In the second year, he was killed by Shi Siming!
It’s so good that heaven will reincarnate, who will God spare!
After hearing Zhou Yuxi say An Qingxu's name, I naturally felt excited. If the record on the inscription is correct and it is An Qingxu's autobiography, is it certain that this tomb belongs to An Qingxu?
