As for Li Mu, people all know that he is the "four famous soldiers in the Warring States" and the pillar of Zhao, but few people know that his descendants are very prominent and one of the famous families in the history of China. Many prime ministers in his family, even Emperor Li Tang, are descendants of Li Mu. What the hell is going on here?
In fact, Li Mu is the founder of the Millennium family "Zhao Lijun"! At this point, some readers may be confused. According to historical records, Li Tang obviously came from "Longxi Li". For example, Old Tang Book clearly records that "Li's surname is taboo". One is the Taoist priest in Longxi, Sun Wang of Liang VII. "Li Tang is obviously" Lee of West Gansu ". How did he suddenly become "Zhao Jun Li"?
In fact, this view is not my personal view. Textual research by a group of historians headed by Chen proved that he was indeed a "Zhao" person. For the most obvious example, although Tang Gaozong claimed to be from Longxi, the tombs of Li Yuan's great-grandfather and others were all in Hebei. Obviously, Hebei is the territory of Zhaojun Li. In addition, according to historical records, it is a descendant of Zhao Shun. Because Li Yuan is in Guanlong, it is natural to be attached to the local famous family "Longxi Li".
Compared with Li in Longxi, Li in Zhaojun is not bad at all! Li Mu's grandson, Li Zuoche, who helped Han Xin pacify Qi Yan, was a generation of military wizards. Mars, a famous figure in the Eastern Han Dynasty, was famous for his integrity. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, "Zhao Lijun" was even listed as a first-class high school, and was called "Cui Lilu Zheng Wang". Most men surnamed Li became important courtiers of the imperial court, while most women surnamed Li were elected to the harem and became concubines of the queen.
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Li Zhaojun's development reached a peak. In the Tang Dynasty, there were as many as 17 prime ministers named Li who helped Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty plan to become emperor, such as Li Youdao, a famous figure in the period of Li Deyu and Wu Zetian, and Li Gang, the prime minister of his grandson.
Some people will say, are all the celebrities named Li together? To be sure, this is not the case. Because Zhaojun Li is divided into different branches, including Nanzu, Xizu, Dongzu, Liaodong, Jiangxia and Hanzhong. Moreover, in ancient times, people had a strong sense of family, and even though they were far apart, they attached great importance to genealogy, which modern people could not understand.
Finally, talk about the relationship between "Li Zhaojun" and "Li Longxi". In fact, these two counties are originally a clan. Zhao Lijun's ancestor was Li Mu, and Li Mu's father was Li Ji. Li's ancestors in Longxi are brothers, and their father's name is Li Tan. He worked as an official in Qin and Zhao successively, so his two sons belonged to different countries and eventually formed two counties, which deeply influenced the history of China.
