On February 12, 948 (solar calendar), qian hong, the former king of Wuyue, hosted a night banquet at his home to entertain his courtiers, while Hu Sijin took advantage of the chaos to launch a palace coup, put King Wuyue under house arrest, and pushed Qian Yue to the throne and was made the new king of Wuyue. Qian Li reigned for more than thirty years, experiencing the succession of the three dynasties of Han, Zhou, and Song in the middle. After Qian Li became the king of Wuyue, he did not have arrogance and extravagance, but on the contrary, he made great efforts to govern and ordered all those who had previously owed taxes to be exempted, and the common people within his jurisdiction who had abandoned their fields were allowed to cultivate them, and the people of Wuyue were immediately very happy. Qian Li also led a thousand Tian Ding to loosen the soil in the abandoned fields, and since then there has been no waste land in Wuyue, and the grain is abundant, and a bucket of rice can be bought for ten yuan.
In the next three years, Wu Yueguo encountered a rare dry day, and there were many people who sold their children to live, and Qian Li immediately ordered that the government should provide grain and clothing to redeem those children and return them to their parents, and opened a national warehouse to provide disaster relief, effectively alleviating the disaster. In 998, Qian Li, the king of Wuyue, died violently in Nanyang, and in the 60th year of the tenth year, he had seven sons, and his nickname was Zhongyi.
Why did Qian Li return to the Song Dynasty?
Qian Li was born in 929 and reigned for 30 years. His original name was Qian Hongli (錢弘俶), and his character name was Wende (文德), the grandson of Qian Hao, the famous King of Wuyue, and the younger brother of Qian Hongqi. He was the last emperor of the State of WuYue. During the Jin Kaiyuan period, he did the history of assassination in Taizhou and eventually became the king of Wuyue. So why did a dignified king, Qian Li, return to the Song Dynasty?
There are two reasons for why Qian Li wanted to return to the Song Dynasty, the first of which was the legacy of his ancestors. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Qian Qi's grandfather, the famous Wuyue King Qian Wei, always ruled the country with good governance and security for the people as the national policy. Even when he died of illness, he did not forget to exhort his descendants to do what they could, and even more to understand the current affairs, and if they encountered the true Lord, they should immediately surrender, so as not to lose more than they lost. And his descendants also remembered the teachings of their ancestors, and did not arrogantly claim the title of Emperor Dao, but always paid tribute to the Central Plains. This was the first reason why Qian Juna returned to the Song Dynasty, because he had to follow the teachings of his ancestors.
The second reason for this is that the enemy is forced to do so. Chen Hongjin had already returned to the Song Dynasty, and Qian Li was already the last independent regime. He saw the people around him taking the soil one after another, and he couldn't help but be terrified. So he wanted to unload his armor and return to the field, ask Taizu to release his identity and status, and even submit Wu Yue's army register, asking Taizu to retract the summons, but Taizu still did not allow it. Qian Li really didn't know what to do this time, at this time, the courtiers around him said to him: "Great King, the meaning of the imperial court is already obvious, the king might as well take the soil immediately, otherwise it will bring the disaster of killing himself!". Qian Li was still struggling, and the counselor said sharply, "We are now in the palm of the enemy's hand, unless we can grow wings and escape." Qian Li had no choice but to think of those innocent civilians, or did he return to song.
Qian Li entered the treasure rhino belt
Qian Li was the king of the Wuyue region during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, and he persisted for a full thirty years from 948, and he was also the last Wuyue emperor in that period. At first, he made contributions during the Song Taizu's crusade against Jiangnan, so he became a marshal of the Terracotta Army, and later entered the Song Dynasty and was still the king of Wuyue. As a generation leader, many interesting and philosophical things have happened to him, such as Qian Qi entering the Baoxi Belt, so what is the matter with Qian Qi entering the Baoxi Belt?
The fact that Qian Li entered the Treasure Rhinoceros Belt is clearly recorded in the Compilation of Anecdotes of the Song Dynasty. It is said that at that time, Qian Li began to serve Song Taizu, was made a marshal of soldiers and horses, and still had the duties of King Wuyue. Once Qian Lijin offered Song Taizu a belt that was specially cherished and precious, and after Taizu saw it, he said that he still had three belts, but it was different from this one. Qian Li felt very curious, so he continued to ask, so Taizu said that the three rivers were the Bian River, the Huimin River, and the Wuzhang River. Qian Li felt very ashamed after hearing this, so he never dared to do anything like this again.
In fact, Qian Lijin Baoxi brought this matter to talk about the image and style of the leader, as a leading figure like Song Taizu, he can almost have anything around him, but he does not only care about personal enjoyment, but puts the people and the Jiangshan in his heart, which is what a real good leader will do. Moreover, Qian Li was very ashamed after listening to Taizu's words, and refused to mention this matter again, which also shows that the leaders have a great leadership and exemplary role, and their behavior and style affect many people in many aspects.
