What tyrants are there in history?
The demise of every emperor is their own fault. If they are not dissolute and immoral, how can anyone be willing to rebel? So, who are the five tyrants in the history of China? Let's take a look with Bian Xiao!

There is a premise that monarchs who are discredited by love like Shang Zhouwang and Yang Guang are not included.

1, Xia Jiejie (? -BC 1600), whose surname is Gui, whose name is Gui, and whose son is posthumous title Jie Li, was the last monarch of Xia Dynasty, and was a famous tyrant in history. He reigned for 52 years (predicted as BC 1652-BC 1600 in the dating project of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties), and all of them were in a strip war (now Luoyang, Henan).

Xia Jie's atrocities always have the following four points:

It is said that Xia Jie is dissolute and cruel, the people live a miserable life, and wantonly invade and blackmail small countries. Thirty-three years after he acceded to the throne, he was conceited and brave, and sent his troops to conquer the secluded stone lion (now tengxian, Shandong). However, you Shishi resisted and demanded to surrender, so he took out all the treasures accumulated over the years and selected many beautiful young girls from the people to pay tribute to Xia Jie together.

Among these beautiful women, there was a woman named Huan, who was full of joy because of her beauty, so she immediately ordered her troops to retreat.

2. During the Northern Qi Dynasty, Wen Xuandi Levin was in the Northern Qi Dynasty for 28 years, from 550 AD to 577 AD, during which he changed six monarchs-Levin, Yin Gao, Gao Yan, Gao Zhan, Gaowei and Gaofeng, and was finally destroyed by the Yuwen family in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Twenty-eight years is not a long time for a dynasty, but the six emperors were cruel and tyrannical when they were in power, making Northern Qi a "beast dynasty".

Perhaps because of the family history of insanity and alcoholism, every emperor showed different degrees of weirdness when he was in office, and he was comparable to an animal in dealing with the relationship between men and women, and Wen Xuandi Levin was the "leader" among the "animal emperors"!

Gao Yang killed people for fun, which made everyone in the imperial court feel unsafe and afraid that one day disaster would befall him. Once, he asked a confidant, "Wang Mang took Liu's world at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, why did he lose to Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu?"

The confidant didn't know what it meant, and honestly replied, "Because Wang Mang didn't uproot the Liu family, it sprouted every spring."

Gao Yang suddenly woke up and immediately arrested 44 former royalty, including Yuan Shizhe and Yuan Shao. Men, no matter how long, were killed, and more than 3,000 bodies were abandoned in Zhangshui. Fish in the water compete for remains, and people often see people's nails when they take fish and cut them open.

3. The most shameless emperor in the history of Jin, Wang Hailing, Yan Hongliang and China is probably Hailing King, the emperor who abandoned gold.

He once said to Xiao Yu, a confidant minister: "After I acceded to the throne, there were not many children. Many party women are my Chinese and foreign relatives and can enter the palace. "

Xiaoyu is still a wise man. He remonstrated with Wan Yanliang and said, "After your majesty ascended the throne, he punished many royal families. Although they deserve it, people all over the world are not convinced. If they bring their wives and concubines into the palace again, including your majesty's relatives, I'm afraid it will arouse the discussion of the world. "

But Yan Yanliang didn't listen, Xiao Yu didn't dare to disobey, so she had to obey Yan Yanliang's orders. As a result, Yan Yanliang's aunt was named Zhao Fei, and Zongben's daughter-in-law, Zonggu's two daughters-in-law and Bingde's sister-in-law were all brought into the palace.

At the beginning of Sun Hao's accession to the throne, Sun Hao, the last emperor of the Three Kingdoms, was quite excited. He issued excellent imperial edicts to support the people, open warehouses to release grain, relieve the poor, release maids to match those who have no wives, and won praise from the ruling and opposition parties.

Power tends to breed corruption and expose a person's true colors more easily. A few years later, Sun Hao became cruel and dissolute. Besides killing people in different ways, he indulges in debauchery all day.

Sun Hao was the initiator of many empresses in emperors of past dynasties, and this practice of "polygamy" had a great influence on later generations. During the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a phenomenon of "one wife and two wives" among the people, and some scholars even called it "one bird and two people".

Liu Cong in the Sixteen Kingdoms period and Gao Wei and Yu Wenyun in the Northern Dynasties conferred many empresses, which was directly related to Sun Hao of Soochow.
