Life of Characters in Zhu Wen's Works

Zhu Wen was born in Wu Gou Village, Dangshan County, Songzhou on the evening of December 21st, 1982. Father's name is Zhu Cheng and mother's name is Wang. His eldest brother is Zhu, his second brother is Zhu Cun, and Zhu Wen is Zhu Cheng's third son. Because of his father's early death, he went to the local landlord Liu Chong's house as a helper with his mother. When Zhu Wen grew up, he was lazy and often did some stealing. Most people in the village hate him, and Liu Chong doesn't like Zhu Wen. Only Liu Chong's mother is kind to him.

During the reign of Tang Xizong, there was famine in kanto region for years, and thieves swarmed and roared together. Huang Chao took the opportunity to rise in Cao Zhou and Zhou Pu, and thousands of hungry people volunteered to follow him. Zhu Wen said goodbye to Liu Chonggu at this time, and joined the army of Huang Chao with his second brother Zhu Cun. Because he fought bravely and won many times, he was promoted to captain.

On December 5th, the first year of Tang Guangming (880), Huang Chao captured Chang 'an and sent Zhu Wen to lead the troops to the East Wei Bridge. At this time, Zhuge Shuang, our Zhou Xia our time, led the troops stationed in Liyang, Huang Chao asked Zhu Wen to woo Zhuge Shuang, Zhuge Shuang was persuaded by Zhu Wen and defected to Huang Chao.

In February of the first year of Tang Dynasty (88 1), Huang Chao appointed Zhu Wen as the pioneer of Southeast Camp, ordered him to attack Nanyang, and then captured Nanyang. In June, Zhu Wen returned to Chang 'an, and Huang Chao personally went to Pakistani businessmen to comfort him. In July, Huang Chao sent Zhu Wen to the west to Xingping, guarding the troops in Thailand, Qi, Fu and Xia, and made great achievements everywhere. In February of the second year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (882), Huang Chao appointed Zhu Wen as the defense envoy of the same state, but he didn't occupy the same state, so Zhu Wen took it himself. Zhu Wen led the troops south from Danzhou, and soon conquered Tongzhou. At that time, Wang Chongrong, our governor in the river, stationed tens of thousands of troops to reconcile other governors and planned to recover Tongzhou. Zhu Wen and Wang Chongrong fought on the land border and were defeated by Wang Chongrong many times. He asked Huang Chao for help and entered the chapter ten times, all of which were reported by Huang Chao. I also heard that Huang Chao's army was in distress and the generals were distracted. Zhu Wen inferred that he would fail.

In September this year, Zhu Wen consulted with his confidants, killed Huang Chao's military supervisor, and led all the soldiers and civilians in Tongzhou to surrender to Wang Chongrong. On the same day, Wang Chongrong quickly wrote a letter and reported it to the court. When Tang Xizong saw this piece of paper in Shu County, he said happily, "God gave it to me." The imperial edict was issued to Zhu Wensajin Gewei, who was appointed as the deputy envoy of the Bank of China and was given the title of all-China. From then on, Zhu Wen commanded his old army to act together with the officers and men in the river, and everywhere he went, he was invincible. In March of the third year of Zhonghe (883), Tang Xizong appointed Zhu Wen as our deputy recruiter of Xuanwu Army, and ordered him to wait for an opportunity to recover Chang 'an before going to local office. In April, Huang Chao's army withdrew from Languan and Zhu Wen recovered Chang 'an. On July 3, I rushed to Bianzhou to take office. Zhu Wen was thirty-two years old. Qin Zongquan, the secretariat of Cai Zhou, reconciled with the remaining party of Huang Chao and surrounded Chen Zhou together. Tang Xizong appointed Zhu Wen as the ambassador to Northeast China to support Chen Zhou.

In the spring of the fourth year of Zhonghe (884), Zhu Wen divided his forces to put out the Huang Chao army surrounded by Chen Zhou and went through 40 battles. When Zhou Chen cleared the encirclement, Zhao Tao, the secretariat, was very grateful to Zhu Wen and personally greeted him. Soon, he heard that Huang Chao's remaining troops were still in Guyang base in northern Chen Zhou, and Zhu Wen returned to Bianzhou directly. At this moment, Li Keyong, our time in Hedong, served Tang Xizong's imperial edict, commanded thousands of cavalry units to plot to destroy Huang Chao, joined Zhu Wen's army against Huang Chao in the north of Zhongmou, and finally defeated Huang Chao, and the remnants of Huang Chao soon surrendered. The enemy generals Huo Cun, Ge, Zhang Guihou and Zhang Guiba all knelt in front of Zhu Wen's horse, and Zhu Wen pardoned their crimes and took them in.

On May 14th, the troops of Zhu Wen and Li Keyong returned to Bianzhou, and Li Keyong was placed in Shangyuan Inn. Then Zhu Wen arranged a thoughtful dinner for Li Keyong, and Li Keyong lost his temper because of drunkenness, which angered Zhu Wen. That night, Zhu Wen ordered the army to set fire to Li Keyong's residence, just when it suddenly rained, and Li Keyong fled over the wall, killing only hundreds of his men. After Li Keyong escaped, he assembled his troops and prepared to send troops to attack Zhu Wen. Because of his wife's dissuasion, he wrote a letter to refute it. Zhu Wen argued that he didn't know, it was all his Yang Yanhong, and he had died in that incident. Li Keyong certainly wouldn't believe it, so he wrote a letter to Tang Chaoting. Tang Chaoting was afraid of offending both sides, and Zhu Wen and Li Keyong turned against each other on this point.

In June, the people of Chen Zhou thanked Zhu Wen for lifting Zhou Chen's siege and built a ancestral temple for Zhu Wen. This year, Huang Chao was defeated and fled to the Wolf Tiger Valley, where he was hunted by officers and men. Cai's patriarchal clan took over Huang Chao's position. On September 2nd, Tang Xizong sealed Zhu Wen on the spot, and became the Hou of Pei County, enjoying a food city of one thousand. In the spring of the first year of Guangqi (885), Qin Zongquan robbed Bozhou and Yingzhou, and Zhu Wen led an army to rescue them. He made friends, fought Qin Zongquan, killed thousands of enemy troops, captured Yin alive, cut off his head and hung it at the city gate as a warning, and returned. In March, Nuozong returned to Chang 'an from Shu and changed to Guangqi. On April 4/kloc-0, Zhu Wen was added as the school inspection Pacific Insurance, and the number of food markets increased to 1500 households. In December, the enemy of River and Taiyuan approached Chang 'an, and Tang Xizong left Chang 'an and arrived in Fengxiang.

In the spring of the second year of Guangqi (886), Qin Zongquan became even more rampant. At that time, the royal family in the Tang Dynasty was weak, and many Daozhou troops did not listen to the royal command. Therefore, Qin Zongquan was able to wreak havoc, and successively captured states such as Youluo, Huai, Mongolia, Tang, Deng, Xu, Zheng, and even thousands of miles away, almost cutting off the population. Only Song, Bo, Slippery and Ying were closed to the outside world. Zhu Wen sent troops to fight them many times, sometimes winning and sometimes losing.

On March 1st, Nozong issued a letter and made Zhu Wen king of Peixian County. In the same month, Nuoyuzong moved to Xingyuan House.

In December, Tang Xizong imperial edict, named Zhu Wen as the school teacher, changed to Xing Wu county king, and enjoyed three thousand households in the food city.

In the spring of the third year of Guangqi (887), on February 1st, Zhu Wen took Zhu Zhen as the secretariat of Zizhou and sent him to the host to recruit soldiers. Within ten days, more than ten thousand people have subscribed. On April 8, when he returned to Bianzhou, Zhu Wen said happily, "I have achieved great things." At this time, Qin Zongquan's department was stationed in Ri Zhang, a northern suburb, and Qin Xian was stationed in Banqiao, each with hundreds of thousands of people. The fence built was twenty miles long and very powerful. Zhu Wen said to the generals, "They are saving their strength and waiting for the right moment. They will definitely attack us. In addition, Qin Zongquan estimated that our troops were small and didn't know that Zhu Zhen had arrived, thinking that we were afraid and had to hold our ground. It is better to surprise now and preemptively. " So he personally led the troops to attack Qin Xian's camp, and the soldiers fought bravely for the first place. Qin Zongquan was really unprepared. He conquered four camps one after another, killing more than 10,000 people. At that time, people thought that there were gods to help in the dark. On the 27th, Lu Tang led more than 10,000 people to camp on the riverside of Wanshengshu, north of Putian, and built a river-crossing bridge to control the river transportation road. Zhu Wen chose a sharp soldier to attack him. It was dark and foggy, and the attack was not discovered until the enemy camp, so I broke into the enemy camp and killed all the way. Many people drowned, and Lu Tang drowned himself. Qin Zongquan's troops in Henan were defeated one after another, and he dared not station any more.

On May 3rd, Zhu Wen sent his troops from Ziziphus jujuba Gate. From morning till night, I fought hand-to-hand with the enemy, defeated the enemy, hunted for more than twenty miles, and there were corpses everywhere. Qin Zongquan was ashamed of his failure, and even more indulged in his tyranny, so he personally led several assault generals to set off from Zhengzhou and went straight to the barracks. On May 8th, troops from Yanzhou, Luanzhou and Sliding State came to reinforce and arrayed themselves on the Bianshui River. The standard weapons were very neat and spectacular. Qin Zongquan saw these, dare not out of the barracks. The next day, Zhu Wen commanded various armies to attack Qin Zongquan Barracks together, killing more than 20,000 people from 4 am to 4 pm. Retreat at night and get countless horses and cattle, trench, prisoners, weapons and armor. That night, Qin Zongquan and Zhang Rizhi sneaked away, chased after dawn, and came back after catching up with Wu Yang Bridge.

Qin Zongquan and Zhu Wen failed in several wars. Because my strength is several times that of Zhu Wen, I lost to Zhu Wen many times, and my heart was furious. When retreating to Zhengzhou, he slaughtered the people in the city, plundered the houses in the city and left for a long time. Qin Zongquan scattered his troops in Shaanxi, Luoyang, Mongolia, Huai, Xu and Ru, and occupied them. Because his soldiers were afraid of Zhu Wen, when Zhu Wen arrived with his army, the people guarding the city abandoned the city and fled.

On March 3rd, the first year of Wende (888), Tang Zhaozong acceded to the throne. Qin Zongquan's subordinate Shiqu led more than 10,000 people to plunder Chen Zhou and Bozhou, and Zhu Wen sent Zhu Zhen to lead thousands of elite cavalry to capture Shiqu.

In February of the first year of Longji (889), Qin Zongquan's subordinate Shen Cong defected, broke Qin Zongquan's legs, imprisoned him, and sent messengers to report to Zhu Wen. On the same day, Zhu Wen accepted the imperial edict and was appointed as the secretariat of Huaixi. Soon, Shen Cong was killed by Guo Kun and the Ministry. In the same month, Guo Kun escorted Qin Zongquan to Zhu Wen, and Zhu Wen sent someone to escort Qin Zongquan to Chang 'an with a paddy wagon. After arriving in Chang 'an, Tang Zhaozong went to Yanxilou to collect prisoners, then beheaded Qin Zongquan under a willow tree, and Cai Zhou was pacified. Tang Zhaozong's imperial edict added 100 households to Taizu Wen Yi, and gave him a manor and a residence. In March, Zhu Wen was appointed as a proofreader and concurrently served as a secretariat, and was named Dongping King to reward the contribution of pacifying Cai Zhou. When Zhu Wen fought against Qin Zongquan, Yunzhou Zhu and Yanzhou Zhu Jin led the troops to rescue him. When Qin Zongquan was defeated, Zhu Wen helped himself because Zhu and Zhu Jin had the same surname, so he sent them gifts back. Zhu and Zhu Jin, because of the bravery of soldiers in Zhu Wen, secretly offered a lot of rewards to lure them on the border between Cao Zhou and Zhou Pu. Many soldiers left for the benefit of goods, and Zhu Wen immediately denounced them. Zhu's answer was rude, so Zhu Wen had a contradiction with them.

On February 3rd, the first year of Jingfu (892), Zhu Wen made a personal expedition to Yunzhou, and was defeated by Zhu, our ambassador in Yunzhou. Jeff Lee and several ministers were also killed by Yunjun.

In the same year 1 1 month, Zhu Wen sent Zhu Youyu to attack Zhou Pu, occupied the area, captured Shao Ru, the secretariat, and pacified Zhou Pu. So he ordered the soldiers to attack Xuzhou. In the second year of Jingfu (893), on April 19th, Pang Shigu captured Xuzhou and cut down the head of Shipu for Zhu Wen.

In February of the first year of Ganning (894), Zhu Wen personally led a great army from Yunzhou East Road to Yushan. After Zhu noticed it, he also led the troops straight to Yushan. The two armies met here and then fought fiercely. Zhu was defeated and more than ten thousand people were killed. Down archers squeezed into Qinghe City. Zhu Wen gathered the bodies of the enemy at the foot of Yushan Mountain and built a tall grave for the meritorious military service. The garrison came back a few days later.

On the 29th day of the first month in the second year of Gan Ning (895), Zhu Wen sent Zhu Yougong to lead an army to attack Yanzhou again, and dug ditches to surround Yanzhou. Soon, Zhu led the cavalry to transport food from Yunzhou to Yanzhou. Zhu Yougong set an ambush and defeated them. He took all their stores from Gaowu and took the opportunity to capture generals An Fushun and An Fuqing alive.

In November of the second year of AD (895), in order to relieve the siege of Yanzhou, King Zhu announced that he Gui, Liu Cun, He Huaibao and other more than 10,000 people would attack. When Zhu Wen heard the news, he led the troops from Yanzhou to the south of Juye, and was defeated. He Gui, Liu Cun and He Huaibao were captured alive.

In the first month of Ganning four years (897), Zhu Wen led an army of Huan Shui to attack Yunzhou on a large scale. /kloc-on 0/5, they camped beside Jishui, and Pang Shigu ordered the generals to clear all kinds of trees and build bridges. On the 19th night, Pang Shigu led Zhong Jun to cross first, and the shouts shook Yuncheng. When Zhu heard about it, he abandoned the city and fled. Ge chased him to the north of Zhongdu, caught Zhu and his wife and children, and immediately executed him under the Bianqiao. Yun Zhou was pacified. On 23rd, Zhu Wen entered Yuncheng and appointed Zhu Youyu as the left-behind military forces in Yunzhou. At this moment, Zhu Wen heard that Zhu Jin was searching for stores in the areas of abundant and Pei, leaving only Kang holed up in Yanzhou, and Zhu Wen urged them to send Ge to lead an army to attack Yanzhou. When Kang heard that Yuncheng had fallen and that the army was coming, he went out of the city and surrendered. Zhu Jin and Shi Yan fled to Huainan. Yunzhou and Yanzhou were pacified. Ge was appointed Queen of Yanzhou. In November (900), the eunuch Liu Ji was imprisoned and made Tang Zhaozong emperor. At the beginning of the following year, Cui Yin, the prime minister closely related to Zhu Wen, and Sun Dezhao, the chief bodyguard, killed Liu, Zhao Zong was reset, and the title was changed to Tianfu, and Zhu Wen was named Dongping King. Since then, Cui Yin wanted to kill eunuchs by Zhu Wen's hand, while Han and other eunuchs used Fengxiang (now Shaanxi) Li He (now Ningxian) Wang Xingyu as foreign aid. In October this year, Cui Yin ordered Zhu Wen to lead the troops into Beijing, and Zhu Wen took the opportunity to lead the troops by 70,000, and captured Tongzhou and Huazhou (now Huaxian) from the river and arrived in the suburbs of Chang 'an. Han and others hijacked Zhao Zong to Fengxiang to take refuge in Li. Zhu Wen chased Fengxiang to the door and asked to meet Zhao Zong. Han Hui Quan ordered Zhu Wen to return to the town. Two years later, Zhu Wen returned to the river again, besieged Fengxiang again and defeated Li many times. Chinese Ambassador to Lebanon Li Zhouyi was intercepted and surrendered to Zhu Wen. If Fengxiang in Tang Zhaozong is controlled and besieged for a long time, the food in the city will be exhausted, and the starving people will be overwhelmed.

Li is very helpless. In the first month of the third year (903), he killed 20 people including Han and made peace with Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen carried Zhao Zong back to Chang 'an, and Zhao Zong became his puppet. Zhao Zong also knows his situation. He said to Zhu Wen: "The ancestral temple country was reborn by the Qing Dynasty, and my relatives and I were also reborn by the Qing Dynasty." So he did as Zhu Wen told him. Soon, Zhu Wen killed more than 700 eunuchs, including the fifth Ke Fan. Since the middle Tang Dynasty, the long-term autocratic eunuch forces have been thoroughly attacked. Zhu Wen was appointed commander-in-chief, deputy marshal of Zhong Shuling, Xuanwu and other military forces, and was awarded the honorary title of "Re-creating Loyalty and Righteousness" and "Liu Yang Ci". After Zhu Wen gained the upper hand in the battle with Li Keyong, he was anxious to take the position of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Because Chang 'an is far away from Bianzhou, it is not convenient to control it directly, so he decided to force Tang Zhaozong to move the capital to Luoyang. Zhao Zong had no choice but to comply with Zhu Wen's wishes. Four years later (early in 904), Zhu Wen ordered Chang 'an people to move according to their household registration, demolish the houses of Chang 'an Palace, drift the timber down the Wei River and build a palace in Luoyang.

By the time Tang Zhaozong arrived in Luoyang, the guards of Tang Ting's Sixth Army had disappeared. The guards around Zhaozong and everyone in the palace were sent by Zhu Wen. On the way from Chang 'an to Luoyang, Zhao Zong was surrounded by Xiao Huangmen and more than 200 children playing in the inner garden. Zhu Wen didn't trust these people, so he ordered them to get drunk and kill them all. Then last year, it was replaced by 200 people with the same appearance and height. Zhao Zongchu couldn't tell the difference, but later he noticed it. In this case, Zhao Zong became a real loner and could become Zhu Wen's meat at any time.

After Zhu Wen forced Zhao Zong to move the capital to Luoyang, the local powerful factions in Hedong Li Keyong, Li Fengxiang Maozhen, Xichuan Wangjian and KuangNing formed an alliance, and in the name of making history against Zhu Wen, they proposed that the world should be cut down. Zhu Wen decided to ask the West for permission to send troops, fearing that Zhaozong would make a difference, so he decided to kill Zhaozong and set up a new king. In August of this year, he ordered Wu Zhu Yougong, You Shu Cong, Tang and others to enter the Inner Palace in the name of entering the palace to play at night. Zhao Zong, wearing a light coat, escaped around the temple pillar, was caught and killed at the age of 38. Originally, I wanted to kill Queen He, but she begged me to avoid death.

After the death of Zhaozong, Zhu Wenli, the ninth son of Zhaozong, became emperor at the age of thirteen and was called Tang Aidi. The following year, Zhu Wen killed nine other sons of Zhaozong. Zhu Wen believed that many courtiers in the Tang Dynasty were loyal to the royal family of Li Tang, which was an obstacle to the establishment of a new dynasty and must be completely eradicated in order to achieve the goal smoothly. Zhu Wen's right-hand counselor, Li Zhen, tried many times to miss the Jinshi in his early years, so he hated these so-called well-dressed people, and also hated those courtiers who were born in the imperial examination, and also strongly advocated killing all these people. So Zhu Wen slaughtered more than 30 courtiers headed by Pei Shu in Baimayi and Sliding State. Li Zhen, still wanting more, said to Zhu Wen, "This generation often claims to be clean and wants to throw it into the Yellow River to make it turbid!" Zhu Wen laughed and immediately ordered people to throw these bodies into the rolling Yellow River. History calls this incident "the disaster of Baima Post". After this change, the Li and Tang dynasties have completely lost their ruling foundation. Although Tang Aidi is still in power, it is actually equivalent to national subjugation.

In April (907), Zhu Wen was officially promoted to the throne by Prime Minister Zhang of the Tang Dynasty, renamed and changed to Kaiping, and became the national title beam. Bianzhou was promoted to Kaifeng Prefecture (now Kaifeng, Henan Province), built as the eastern capital, and Luoyang, the eastern capital of Tang Dynasty, was the western capital. Zhao, 17 years old, was deposed as king and moved to be imprisoned in. In February the following year, he was killed. In May of the first year of Liang Kaiping (907), Zhu Wen ordered Kang Huaizhen to recruit for the camp of Luzhou, and led 80,000 soldiers to attack Luzhou in Li Keyong, Taiyuan. In June, Kang Huaizhen led an army to Luzhou and stormed around the clock. However, after many days of hard work, it was still impossible to attack for a long time, so we made great efforts to build trenches around Luzhou and build more fortresses to completely isolate Luzhou from the outside world and prepare for a long-term siege. Upon hearing the news, Li Keyong immediately led an army to rescue Luzhou and mobilized almost all the military forces in China. At the same time, he sent troops to attack Zezhou (now Jincheng, Shanxi Province) in the north of Luzhou to cut off Liang Jun's retreat and military supply lines. Zhu Wen sent Fan Jushi to reinforce Zezhou. In August, Li Keyong's reinforcements arrived, stationed in Gaohe Town, only 20 miles away from Luzhou, and constantly sent cavalry to attack besieged Liang Jun. Zhu Wen reassigned Li Sian instead of Kang Huaizhen.

In January of the second year of Liang Kaiping (908), Li Keyong died, and his son Li succeeded him. Zhu Wenxian thinks this is Li Keyong's trick to lure the enemy. In March of this year, he personally came to Zezhou and began to command troops to evacuate Luzhou. Later, when it was determined that Li Keyong was dead and innocent, he recalled the troops besieging Luzhou and continued to besiege Luzhou. Because Li Sian attacked Luzhou for a long time, he not only failed to achieve any success, but also lost more than 40 people and tens of thousands of foot soldiers. He called Li Sian to Zezhou, relieved all his official titles and appointed Liu Zhijun as Luzhou business. Liu Zhijun led more than ten thousand soldiers to attack, but he was arrogant. As a result, he was defeated by Li, who succeeded to the throne, killing and injuring tens of thousands. At this point, the siege of Luzhou has been solved for more than a year. Zhu Wen heard the news and sighed, "If you have children, you should be like Li Yazi (Li's nickname). Although Li Keyong is still alive! Compared with it, my son is like a pig and a dog! " In the third year of Liang Kaiping (909), Zhu Wen moved the capital to Luoyang, leaving his adopted son Wang Bo and Zhu Youwen as the eastern capital. Since the defeat of Luzhou, Zhu Wen has become more and more suspicious of his subordinates. Wang, who was guarding Chang 'an, was angered by Zhu Wen's "tribute from time to time" and heard rumors that he was in contact with Li You, so he ordered him to commit suicide and destroy the country and the nation. Liu Zhijun, who was guarding Tongzhou, was very upset when he saw that Wang was killed and was not guilty, so he attached Tongzhou to Li. Zhu Wen also suspected that guarding the town (now Zhengding, Hebei Province) and (now Hebei Province) contacted Li, sent the king to send troops to attack, and turned to Li and Liu Shouguang for help. Liu Shouguang couldn't sit still, and Li was advancing eastward. In the first year of Ganhua (9 1 1) in January, Liang Bing was defeated in Baixiang (now Hebei), killing 20,000 enemies and capturing countless grains and wealth.

In the second year of Liang Ganhua (9 12), at the beginning of February, Zhu Wen personally led an army to attack Calm State, claiming to be 500,000 troops. 15, Zhu Wen set out from Luoyang, and most of the officials who were ordered to accompany him were afraid of death, because they killed their near ministers at will. Zhu Wen was indignant at the news. On this day, a palace was set up in Baima Post to host a banquet for officials. Unexpectedly, most of the officials didn't arrive, so the cavalry was ordered to return along the road and urged them to go to dinner. Left riding, right admonishing doctor Zhang Yan, Ministry of War minister Zhang Jun finally arrived, and Zhu Wen immediately mounted his horse and beheaded him.

On February 26th of the same year, Zhu Wen arrived in Weizhou and ordered Yang and others to surround Zaoqiang (east of Zaoqiang today) and Guo County (Jingxian today). Yang attacked day and night, and Zaoqiang was quickly occupied because of its small city. At that time, Guo County had not yet broken the city, so Zhu Wen asked Yang to lead an army of 50,000 to attack the city with any army. Li Cunshen, the general of Li Keyong, consulted with Shi Jiantang and Li Siban and said, "My king is besieging Youzhou and Jizhou in the north, so we can't divide our forces to support him. The war in the south was entrusted to us and others. Guo county is in a tight situation now, how can I sit idly by! If Liang Jun takes it, it will attack Shenzhou and Jizhou from the west, which will do more harm. We should wait with you to beat them with strange tricks. " Li Cunshen led his troops to guard the Bohai Bridge, and sent Shi Jiantang and Li Siban to split up and capture Hou Liangbing alive. Shi divided his men into five teams, each with 100 people. A team goes to Hengshui, a team goes to Nangong, a team goes to Xindu and a team goes to Fucheng. He led his troops deep behind enemy lines. When the troops led by Li Siban met Liang Bing who was cutting firewood and grass, they all captured them and captured hundreds of people. Meet at Xia Bo Bridge the next day, kill all the captured Liang Bing, leaving only a few people to cut off their arms and let them go, saying, "Tell Zhu Wen for me: Li Keyong's army has arrived!"

On the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, Zhu Wen arrived in the west of Guo County. Before camping, Shi Jiantang and Li Siban each led 300 cavalry, imitated the flag and clothes color of Liang Jun, and walked with Liang Bing, who was chopping wood and mowing grass. When the sun was about to set, he reached the gate of Ho's camp, killed the gatekeeper, made people shout, let go of the bow and arrow, and rushed by Mercedes. After dark, they each cut off the enemy's left ear. There was a big riot in Liang barracks. I don't know what happened. Liang Bing, whose arm was cut off by Li Cunshen, reported again: "Li Keyong leads a large group of people!" Zhu Wen was frightened, burned the camp, retreated overnight, lost his way, walked one hundred and fifty miles in twists and turns, and arrived in Jizhou at dawn on the ninth day. Local farmers are chasing Liang Bing with hoes and sticks, and Liang Jun's abandoned military materials and equipment are inexhaustible. Soon, Zhu Wen sent cavalry to spy on the movement of Jin Jun and came back to report: "Li Keyong didn't come, just Shi Xianfeng's mobile cavalry." Zhu Wen couldn't bear the shame and resentment in her heart, so she intensified her efforts and couldn't get on the sedan chair. Zhu Wen stayed in Zhou Bei for more than ten days, and then returned to Luoyang for illness. Due to illness, I returned all the way intermittently and didn't arrive until May 6th.

Zhu Wen spent some time in Luoyang. The body has recovered a lot. It was summer, and the sun was shining. Zhu Wen gave a banquet in the palace to entertain the minister. On a whim, he gave an order to go boating in Jiuqu Pool, and the boat arrived in the pool. Unexpectedly, the royal boat capsized and Zhu Wen fell into the water. Fortunately, the waiter tried his best to save Fang from the water. Zhu Wen was frightened by this, and his condition, which had already improved, suddenly worsened. He was in shock all night and couldn't sleep all night.

On May 15, Zhu Wen's illness became more and more serious. He said sadly to his recent minister, "I have been ruling the world for 30 years, but I didn't expect the remnants of Taiyuan to be so rampant again! I think his ambition for Li is not small, but God wants to take away the rest of my years, and my sons are no rivals, so my departure will not have a good end. " . At some point, he burst into tears and fainted. As soon as he shouted, he called the physician urgently. When he gradually woke up, the doctor also rushed to the pulse to take medicine, and his condition was slightly relieved. Zhang, the queen of Zhu Wen, is serious and wise, and Zhu Wen respects and fears her. After the death of Queen Zhang, Zhu Wen indulged in singing and dancing and played with women. Even in other places, literati often recruited their wives to serve in the palace, and Zhu Wen often committed adultery with them. Zhu Youwen's wife, Wang, is beautiful, and Zhu Youwen is particularly fond of her. Although Zhu Youwen was not made a prince, Zhu's intention was always focused on him. Zhu was indignant. On one occasion, Zhu made a mistake and Zhu Wen beat him with a whip, which made Zhu even more uneasy. Zhu Wen was seriously ill, and ordered Wang Zhao and Zhu Youwen to bid farewell to Kaifeng in the east and Luoyang in the west, and to entrust the funeral. Zhu's wife, Zhang Ye, waited on Zhu Wen day and night. After she knew it, she secretly told Zhu: "The emperor gave the king the national treasure seal and took it. We will die in a few days. " The couple shed tears. Someone around them advised them to say, "Students are in urgent need. Why not try something else? Time must not be missed! "

In the second year of Liang Ganhua (9 12), on the first day of June, Zhu Wen ordered Jing Xiang to transfer Zhu to Laizhou Secretariat and immediately let him go to his post. A decree has been issued, but no decree has been issued. At that time, most of the demoted officials were ordered to be put to death, and Zhu Yue became more and more afraid.

In the second day of junior high school, in order to hide his identity, Zhu changed his costume and entered the Zuolonghu Army. He met with the Zuolonghu Unified Army and told him the truth. Han Han also saw that many veteran heroes were killed because they were too young. They were afraid that they could not save themselves, so they planned with Zhu. So he led 500 soldiers into the palace, and Zhu was mixed with the sergeant of the crane tube and ambushed in the palace. They cut the bolt in the middle of the night and came to the bedroom. The attendants around Zhu Wen fled in succession. Zhu Wen jumped up and asked, "Who is the traitor?" Zhu said to him, "No one else." Zhu Wen said, "I suspect you are a thief, but I just hope I didn't kill you earlier. You are so rebellious, can heaven and earth accommodate you! " Zhu said, "Cut the old thief to pieces!" Zhu's groom stabbed Zhu Wen in the abdomen, and the tip of the knife went out of his back. Zhu personally wrapped Zhu Wen in a broken felt and buried him in the bedroom, keeping the news secret and not mourning. Ding, a sacrificial official, was sent to Kaifeng, the eastern capital, and ordered Zhu Youzhen, the king of Cao Jun, to kill Zhu Youwen.

On the third day, Zhu forged the imperial edict of Zhu Wen, saying, "Zhu Youwen, king of Bo, rebelled and sent troops into the temple. Relying on Wang Zhuzhongxiao, I led the army to kill Zhu Youwen, only to save my life. However, due to the panic and panic, the condition is even worse, and Zhu should temporarily take charge of military affairs and state affairs. " Han Zu made suggestions for Zhu, and took out a large amount of gold and silk from the treasury and distributed it to various armies and officials to please the people.

On the fifth day, when Guan Ding came back, Zhu heard that Zhu Youwen had died, only to lose his hair and declare Zhu the emperor.
