The Emperor of Great Zhou was assassinated and seriously injured on the day of his wedding, but was eventually killed. Emperor Daxing had no children. Prime Minister Yuchi Dun followed the will and led all civil and military officials to support the prince of Xiyang, Yuwen Weicheng, to succeed the throne, and temporarily use the Ganxing reign title.

As the saying goes, father dies and sons succeed, brothers end up with each other, but Daxing Emperor Yuwen Gankeng and the successor Emperor Yuwen Weicheng are not fathers and sons, nor are they brothers. They are in the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren by generation, and they are separated by a generation.

According to the patriarchal law, it is not appropriate for Yuwen Weicheng to succeed the throne, but the scenes of the past in hundreds of years of bloody storms prove that the new king does not need so much attention to ascending the throne. Anyway, Yuwen Weicheng is a royal family that is like a fake, with Yuwen's blood flowing, which is enough.

And this young new king still had Yuchi's blood flowing.

With the blood of two families at the same time, the new king's succession can be said to be "returned to everyone". The rumors that began to circulate before are meaningless now.

There are many rumors, such as someone who caught a fish in the Zhang River, and after cutting open the fish's belly, found a silk book, which read "The emperor is in trouble, the Buddha is protected"; someone heard the fox cry at night, saying the six words "The emperor comes out, and Yuchi dies."

These rumors seem to make everyone believe that the emperor was not seriously injured due to assassination, but was protected by magical powers and fled out of Yecheng and wanted to summon the king's troops to fight back. However, with the official news of the emperor's death and the new king's succession, no one paid attention to these rumors.

Everyone is concerned about a "good news": the rebel King Qi, Yuwen Liang and his prince Yu Wenming failed to kill the lord, and the emperor left his order. Those who get Yu Wenliang's head are named Duke, and those who get Yu Wenming's head are named Duke.

This is a great reward, so...what does the civilians do? Everyone doesn't have the ability to take Yu Wen Liang and Yu Wenming's head, so they are just talking about who will be lucky during casual conversation.

Some people talked about another content of the will, that is, the new king's biological father, King Yuwen Wen of Xiyang, was the king of King Zhu.

The Zhou Kingdom was granted the title. At first, because the emperor was called the Heavenly King, the title was not given as a parent-child. All the parents were just a Duke. In August of the first year of Wucheng of Emperor Ming, the Heavenly King was changed to be called the Emperor, but the parent-children were not given as a Duke.

In the first month of the third year of Jiande of Emperor Wu, he was granted the title of Duke Xian of Qi, Duke Zhi of Wei, Duke Zhao of Zhao, Duke Jian of Qiao, Duke Chun of Chen of Yue, Duke Sheng of Dai, Duke Da of Teng of Teng as the title of Kings, and the Emperor's parents and children all became kings from then on.

At first, the emperor's parents and children had a title of Duke, and they had ten thousand households (empty titles). Later, they were promoted to be kings, but the number of households with fief remained unchanged. After Yuwen Yun ascended the throne, they had to do whatever they wanted and fear the uncles of the emperors. They first killed King Yuwen Xian of Qi, and then ordered the remaining kings to leave the capital.

The Xiangguo County of Mingzhou was the State of Zhao, the Jinan County of Qizhou was the State of Chen, the Wudang County of Fengzhou and Anfu County were the State of Yue, the Shangdang County of Luzhou was the State of Dai, and the Xinye County of Jingzhou was the State of Teng, each of which was 10,000 households were the actual enfeoffment.

The subsequent country of Zhao, Yuwen Zhao, Yuwen Chun, Yuwen Sheng, Yuwen Da of the Democratic Republic, and Yuwen Du of Teng, became kings with actual fiefdoms. They were the sons of Taizu and of course qualified to be kings, but some were not descendants of Taizu and were also named kings.

The titles of King Zhou were kings, princes, and county kings. At first, the Zhou Kingdom was not named kings in different surnames, but the only one who was named kings in the branch of the royal family was Yuwen Hu. The Duke of Jin promoted the title of King Jin. However, later, all the cases were broken.

First, at the end of the second year of Daxiang, the prime minister of the regent, Yang Jian, the Duke of Sui, was named King of Sui (King of the Kingdom), and then eight years later, in the first year of Ganxing, the Duke of Shu, Yuchi Jiong, the Duke of Shu, was named King of Shu, and the royal family, Yuwen Liang, the Duke of Qi, was named King of Qi, and Yuwen Wen, the Duke of Xiyang County, was named King of Xiyang (King of the Kingdom).

Now a year later, Emperor Daxing’s will grant Xiyang King Yuwen the King of Zhu (King of the Kingdom), which broke the original example.

In the past, Yuwen Wen was promoted to Duke of Zhu from Xiyang County. When he was awarded the title of Prince, the county title originated from Xiyang County, the county title of Duke of Xiyang County. Therefore, the national title of Duke of Zhu naturally originated from the former Duke of Zhu.

There is no strange thing about having a source and a source. What's special is that the fief of Zhu State was 20,000 households, and Huangzhou was the one who was named Zhu State. Such treatment was comparable to the five kings of that year and was even better than that.

Emperor Daxing ordered Yuwen Weicheng, the eldest son of King Yuwen Wen of Xiyang, as the new king. As the biological father, Yuwen Wen's treatment was reasonable. After all, the eldest son ascended the throne and became emperor, and Yuwen Wen could not be the emperor, so he could only use the real title of the kingdom as compensation.

It is also true that Yuwen Weicheng's biological mother, Yuwen Weicheng's legitimate brother Yuwen Weigan also received rewards, and the rewards were that Yuchi was the queen of King Zhu and Yuwen Weigan was the prince of King Zhu. It was these two rewards that attracted everyone's attention.

The title of King Zhou, the eldest son of the king, the eldest son of the king, the prince's wife was called the princess, and the legitimate mother of the king was called the prince's concubine. She had never had a title of queen and the prince's title. The first to break the convention was Yang Jian and his wife back then.

Before Yang Jian usurped the throne, he was granted the title of King of Sui and appointed Suizhou as his country. His wife Dugu was granted the title of Queen of Sui, and his eldest son Yang Yong was granted the title of Crown Prince of Sui.

The reappearance of the past represents that Yuwen Wen is going to take Yang Jian’s path of usurping the throne? That’s not, it is to enhance Yuwen Wen’s status on the surface, but the knowledgeable people see a different meaning from it, that is, this move is actually a prelude to it.

King Zhu can have a real fief, a kingdom, a queen and a prince, so why can the King of Shu follow the rules in the future?

Yuwen's family is in a dilemma. King Zhu has a real title and a queen, so what about the prince? It's just to lay the groundwork for the King of Shu to take that position in the future.

Not to mention whether such rewards can be implemented is still a question.

For Yecheng, the situation in Shannan is still unclear, but Yuwen Wen is now far away in Lingbiao Guangzhou, so he must be unaware of the eldest son's succession, and even if others are in Yecheng, he will not agree.

The man has no descendants, and his brother adopts a son as his heir to continue the incense for him. This is normal. Yuwen Wen is an heir and does not lack sons, so it is not difficult to adopt a son to the clan.

The key is that Yuwen Wen and the great emperor Yuwen Gankeng are uncle and nephew rather than brothers, and his son and Yuwen Gankeng are grandparents and grandchildren. According to patriarchal law, it is impossible to adopt the generations between generations.

Although Yuwen Weicheng did not succeed to the throne in the name of Emperor Daxing's heir, he was Yuwen Wen's eldest son. After assuming the throne, he worshipped the tablets of the previous emperors, namely Yuwen Tai, rather than the tablets of his biological father Yuwen Wen a hundred years later.

In terms of patriarchal law, the eldest son must not be allowed to do such a thing, because this is the so-called "human tragedy". Will Yuwen Wen agree? It definitely won't.

Then Yuwen Wen would never accept the series of rewards from King Zhu, let alone the will of the will that King Qi Yu Wenliang and Prince Yu Wenming were rebels who failed to kill the king, and called on the troops and horses of the world to fight against him.

Prime Minister Yuchi Dun was therefore awarded the title of great righteousness to attack Yuwen Liang. In sharp contrast, Yuwen Wen was awarded the title of King Zhu, which actually granted the reward of the Kingdom of Zhu. This difference demonstrates the distinction between the grievances of the Emperor Daxing.

Is this true? Who knows, it is not certain who wrote the will, but no one will be worried about this issue.

Yuwen Wen was named King of Zhu, would he draw a clear line with King of Qi, Yuwen Liang? No.

Yuwen Wen was granted the title of King of Zhu and Huangzhou became the Kingdom of Zhu. Will the imperial army avoid the Kingdom of Zhu? No.

When the Yuwen royal family is defeated, will the Yuwen family still be the emperor sitting on the imperial throne? No.

So is it interesting to be confused about the authenticity of the will?

Anyone with a little knowledge will understand that the Yuchi family and the Yuwen family have broken openly, so it is the most important to stand on the side of the winner, and the future winner has already announced the emperor's will and the manifesto to the world to attack Yuwen Liang.
