隋朝开国皇帝杨坚如何让北周景帝慨然禅让的故事

杨坚是隋朝开国皇帝,当时北周仅仅成立了24年,景帝便禅让杨坚,这究竟是为什么呢?杨坚的父亲杨忠是北周军事贵族,武帝时期杨忠被封为随国公,此后杨坚继承父爵,并为上柱国。实际上杨坚在当上大丞相以后就有了篡权的计划,只是在等一个最佳的时机,直到景帝继位后,杨坚也做好了各方面的准备工作,这才能逼景帝主动禅让。历史上那些肯放弃皇位的人,应该也没几位是出于真心。

有人问,谁是古来得天下最为容易的君王?我觉得这是一个有意思的问题。容易是一个相对的概念。有人觉得汉高祖刘邦四十多岁起兵,依靠张良、韩信、萧何等人的帮助,最终取得了天下,是比较容易的一个;有人认为唐高祖李渊在儿子李建成和李世民等人的帮助下进驻长安,成为了唐朝的开国之君,也是比较容易的一个。

那么,Yang Jian why so easily got the throne of Xuanwu's family? Where is the core reason in this?

Historically, big people often have different characteristics from ordinary people. According to the Book of Sui, Yang Jian "was a man with dragon-like appearance, with five ridges on his forehead and a gaze that shot outwards." This was precisely what they called a person blessed by heaven. At fifteen years old, Yang Jian was appointed as a scatterer of horses and infantry general by his father's merits. At sixteen years old, he was promoted to be an equerry and added the title of open prefecture. Even Emperor Xuanwu praised him: "This boy has great character and is not like those men in recent times."

Sure enough, Yang Jian was one who won at the starting line. When he held office, he was respectful and diligent; as a son, he was filial and loyal. Soon after, he gained high popularity both among officials and commoners.

A good man has three helpers. Initially when Emperor Xuanzu ascended to power for fear of being overshadowed by General Protector Yuwen Huiguang (宇文护), He sought other courtiers' support while recruiting them into his faction - which led to Yang Jian joining forces with him - His daughter became Empress Dowager through marriage.

Thus began their mutual benefit relationship between them - "father relying on daughters" status elevated him further in court politics.

Despite some believing that Yang Jian had ambitious intentions towards becoming king while Emperor Xuanzu believed it to be destiny that only favored him over others due to God's will or fate rather than someone capable enough overthrowing North Zhou’s reign.

When Emperor Xuanzu passed away at age 7 without any strength left for managing affairs anymore but still hoped for stability under guidance from trusted allies & advisors—especially those close friends such as himself named 'Generalissimo', Generalissimo whose own daughter married into royal bloodline thus increasing her influence within palace walls—thus giving birth new era known history books call 'The Great Ascension'.

From external factors perspective too: The exceptional background combined with favorable circumstances made seizing power much easier; later becoming national guardian gave rise opportunities galore! It wasn't just chance alone but all these elements together made way possible though ultimately — success lies behind sheer might!

In conclusion let us say we can sum up this story about how emperor yang jian came into power simply put — A combination right timing skillful political maneuverings plus determination along side luck played crucial role leading successful revolution changing course history forever known now called Spurium Dynasty founded upon solid foundation laid down earlier generations previous rulers etc., so here we are today celebrating triumphant rise powerful empire spanning centuries long legacy lasting time beyond our wildest dreams imaginable!
