I don't know if TaBaHong is the youngest father in the history of China, but he is indeed the youngest emperor father in the history of China and a great father.
Tuoba Hong is the eldest son of Tuoba Zhuo in Wen Chengdi and the fifth emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty. During his reign, he was first suppressed by the powerful minister Ihun, and then ruled by Feng Taihou. Although he is a wise king, his talents are useless under the pressure of Feng Taihou, so his relationship with Feng Taihou is very tense.
TaBaHong killed Feng Taihou's most trusted minister. After the death of the minister, the irreconcilable contradiction between TaBaHong and Feng Taihou instantly intensified. Angry Feng Taihou said that she would abolish TaBaHong. In the end, in order to save his life, TaBaHong devoted himself to studying Taoism and Buddhism. It seems that he saw through the world of mortals and was disheartened, so he offered to be emperor.
Later, TaBaHong, aged 18, passed the throne to his son TaBaHong, the famous Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the emperor's father, Feng Taihou, who came to power again. In order to train the young TaBaHong into his own doll, Feng Taihou repeatedly beat him or changed him by cruel means. On one occasion, in a cold winter, Feng Taihou shut TaBaHong alone in a dark little room and refused to let him eat or drink for three days and three nights. All this, TaBaHong see in the eye, hate is not in my heart.
As a bloody man, you can bully yourself, but not the people he cares about. In order to vent his anger towards his son, rehabilitate his grievances and support his son, he gradually started a political challenge with Feng Taihou. Externally, he fought in the north and opened up territory; Internally, he reviewed the army, inspected the work, rectified the bureaucracy and promoted talents. This series of measures not only made the ethnic division in the Northern Wei Dynasty stronger and stronger, but also greatly enhanced the majesty of TaBaHong in the imperial court.
As the emperor's father, it can be said that it is the most brilliant and active day in TaBaHong's life. However, the more capable he is, the harder he works, the more meritorious he is, the more powerful he is, and the more he warns Feng Taihou, a strong political woman. In order to prevent TaBaHong from making a comeback and firmly control his power, Feng Taihou secretly staged a coup and imprisoned TaBaHong for six years. At noon seven days later, TaBaHong, who was only 23 years old, was poisoned by Feng Taihou. Tuoba Hong was killed by his mother.
A father who could have lived a quiet life and died, for the sake of his son's growth and fate, resolutely embarked on the dangerous road of competing with tigers for skin, and thus gave his young life, which cannot but be said to be another touching chapter in writing that fatherly love has no borders. Since then, Feng Taihou has been in charge of the Northern Wei regime until his death.
Under the influence of his father Hong, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty made great efforts to govern, be determined to innovate, vigorously promote education, and accept sinicization, which not only contributed to the great integration of all ethnic groups in the northwest, including Xianbei, and the Han nationality in the Central Plains, but also became an outstanding politician and reformer in the history of China. The author believes that this achievement is undoubtedly the greatest comfort and the best reward for his father Tuoba Hong.
