When autumn comes on September 8, I will kill a hundred flowers when they bloom.

The incense soars through Chang’an, and the city is full of golden armor.

At the end of the Tang dynasty, the Tang dynasty was dying; this poem was written by Huang Chao, a Confucian scholar who failed in Chang’an, to express his ambition.

Shortly after, in 874 AD, Huang Chao led the crowd to rise up with Wang Xianzhi. The Tang dynasty, which had been deeply trapped by warlords, ran out of the last national fortune in this war.

Huang Chao eventually failed and died.

The Tang dynasty continued to falter for more than 20 years. It was usurped by Zhu and Wen in AD 9-7. The Tang Empire, the center of world civilization, was officially destroyed, and Chinese history entered the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

Zhu Wen established the “Liang”, known as the Later Liang in history, and became the first Central Plains regime in the Five Dynasties that lasted for 53 years.

Zhu Wen was originally a general of Huang Chao. After surrendering to Tang Ting, he turned to suppress the rebels and then usurped Tang Liliang.

He had a mortal enemy. In the late Tang Dynasty, he had dealt with the rebel army’s Hedong Jiedushi and Jin Wang Li Keyong. After the establishment of the rear beam, the two sides had wars. When Zhu Wen and Li Keyong died, the sons continued to fight.

Finally, in 923 AD, Li Keyong’s son Li Cunxu, the king of Jin, proclaimed himself emperor with the national title “Da Tang”, which was called the Later Tang Dynasty in history, and then eliminated the back beam.

History has entered the second period of the Five Dynasties: Later Tang Dynasty.

Shi Jingtan, the ambassador of Hedong Jiedu in the Later Tang Dynasty, was the founding hero and was highly regarded by the court. Emperor Li Siyuan even married his daughter.

However, after Li Congke ascended the throne, due to the objective threat from the commander-in-chief, the emperor and his subjects became suspicious of each other.

Shi Jingtian decided to raise troops against the Tang, at the cost of ceding the Youyun Sixteen States, claiming the sons and ministers of the Liao State, and begging Taizong of Liao for help; so he joined forces with the Liao army to attack the Later Tang.

In 936 AD, Shi Jingtan was proclaimed emperor, the country was named “Jin”, and it was called the Later Jin in history.

Shi Jingtang’s practice of acknowledging his father made many people in the country feel humiliated. The rebellion never ceased. Both of his princes were killed because of the rebellion.

Shi Jingtang passed the throne to his adopted son Shi Zhonggui when he was dying, and Shi Zhonggui decided to gradually break away from his attachment to Liao.

But this approach immediately led to a war with Liao. The Liao attacked a total of three times. Shi Zhonggui lost all in the last war. His family was captured, his wives and concubines were played, and the later Jin Dynasty was destroyed.

However, the Khitan people were not welcomed by the Han people in Hebei, Henan and other places due to the long-term evil deeds of burning, killing and looting. The Khitan lord was unable to rule after Kaifeng ascended the throne. It felt dangerous to stay in the Central Plains and decided to retreat.

There is no owner in the Central Plains. The late Jin Hedong Jiedu made Liu Zhiyuan proclaimed the emperor in Taiyuan, led his army to take over Luoyang Kaifeng and other places, and continued to recover Henan and Hebei provinces. In 947 AD, the “Han” was established, which was called the Later Han in history.

Guo Wei was the founder of the Later Han Dynasty, and he was also highly regarded by the emperor.

After the death of Liu Zhiyuan, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Guo Wei also helped the Emperor of the Later Han to put down the rebellion many times. Among them, the general of the Later Han Dynasty, Hezhong Jiedu, made Li Shouzhen rebellious and threatened the court because of Guo Wei’s suppression.

However, Emperor Han Yin was afraid that Guo Wei would learn from his predecessors and did not trust each other. He killed Guo Wei and his family in an internal struggle, but failed to get rid of Guo Wei.

So Guo Wei’s army drove back to Kaifeng to kill Emperor Yin of the Han Dynasty, and the Later Han Dynasty was destroyed. In 951, Guo Wei proclaimed himself emperor, and his country was named Zhou.

When Guo Wei proclaimed the emperor and found the nation, Liu Chong also proclaimed himself emperor in Taiyuan after the Hedong Jiedu Emperor of the Later Han Dynasty, known as the Northern Han Dynasty in history, and became one of the “ten kingdoms” apart from the Central Plains dynasty.

Liu Chong wanted to use the Khitan soldiers to go south, follow the same pattern to destroy Hou Zhou, and become the master of the Central Plains by himself, but he failed. Later Zhou also failed to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty in one dynasty, and the two sides continued to war.

In addition to the Northern Han Dynasty, there are many separate regimes in Sichuan, Huguang, Jiangnan and other places in the south, called the Ten Kingdoms.

In the later weeks, the two generations of emperors Guo Wei and his adopted son Chai Rong grew stronger and began to gradually implement the strategy of unifying China.

But the third-generation emperor Chai Zongxun was only a few years old when he became the king, so Zhao Kuangyin, who was originally the commander of the imperial army in the later Zhou Dynasty, launched a mutiny in Chenqiao.

The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms also ended, and Chinese history entered the Northern Song Dynasty.

…Fu Shi.

Fu Yanqing is a figure mainly active in the late Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, born in a family of military generals.

The grandfather is Wu Wang Fu Chu, and his father Qin Wang Fu Cunshen is the adopted son of Li Keyong.

Up to the generation of Fu Yanqing, he was named King Huaiyang, King Wei, King Wei, and his nine brothers were all guards with military power.

But the most famous of Fu Yanqing’s family is his daughter, and the three daughters are stepmothers.

Among these three queens, the eldest daughter, Fu clan, was the queen of Zhou Shizong Chai Rong.

In 947 AD, Liu Zhiyuan established the Later Han, which was the fourth dynasty of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

This year, the Fu clan was 16 years old. Because his father changed the town to Yanzhou, he moved with his father. In Yanzhou, she met a young man who was dying of hunger and cold. The Fu clan sympathized with him and begged his father to save him. The young man named Guo Shao.

Soon after the Fu clan married, the son of Han general Li Shouzhen, went to Hezhong Mansion.

Guo Shao accompanied as a guard.

In 95o AD, a wandering Taoist priest met with Fu and said that she had the appearance of a queen. This stimulated Li Shouzhen’s ambition: his daughter-in-law has the appearance of a queen, isn’t his son the emperor? Li Shouzhen then made up his mind and raised troops in the river.

The post-Han court sent Guo Wei to lead the army to counter the rebellion.

Li Shouzhen was defeated, the rebellion marched into the mansion, and his family was killed; his daughter-in-law, Fu Shi, did not want to be buried, but hurried to the inner mansion to escape. The guards and domestic servants all ran away, but Guo Shao was willing to stop her. Chasing soldiers.

Guo Shao was grateful for Fu’s life-saving grace and other reasons, and wanted to repay his favor with death… He was hit in the head with a blunt weapon in the chaos army, and then was thrown out of the city with countless corpses. Mass graves.

At this time, there was some accident in time and space. The fifth generation of young Lang just died, but by chance, he was possessed by a modern soul and woke up with difficulty.

And the Fu clan was not dead. Instead, she was recognized as a righteous daughter by Guo Wei based on the friendship between her father Fu Yanqing and Guo Wei.

Soon after, Guo Wei and Fu Yanqing got married and took the righteous daughter as a daughter-in-law, and let the Fu family remarry Guo Wei’s adopted son, Chai Rong.

The family of Zhou Taizu, Guo Wei, was killed during the internal tumbling of the Hou Han, and his son was gone. He had to let his adopted son, Chai Rong, be his heir, and finally passed the throne to Chai Rong three years later.

Fu Shi is Chai Rong’s wife, so she became the first queen of Fu family.

But a butterfly seems to have appeared in the long river of history.

When Li Shouzhen in Hezhong Mansion rebelled, a guard who should have died came back alive, as if there was a butterfly of unknown origin. It flapped its wings and gradually affected the face of history…
