| After Emperor Xiaowen of Northern WEI Dynasty moving the capital to Luoyang,the upper ruling class of Northern WEI’s internal power struggles and social upheaval were intensified to induce some of the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen to turn to Xiao-Liang for shelter.For instance,after Emperor Xuanwu dismissed six-Aid,King of Xianyang’s sons turn to Xiao-Liang.At Emperor Xiaoming,Yuancha’s dictatorship lead to the turbulence of the upper ruling class,this made a lot of the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen run to the Southern again.After entering Luoyang,Erzhu Rong starts the Heyin’s Inccident.quite a lot of the hanizationed Yuan-Wei officials were Slaughtered,then Yuan Xiang,King of Beihai,Yuan Yue,King of Runan,along with some others go to Xiao-Liang for shelter once more.Besides,some of the boundary guards betray Yuan-Wei and turn to Xiao-Liang.These Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen that go to the Southern become a special group.Emperor Liangwu canvassed the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen and adopted many preferential policies.A lot of the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen that been in Xiao-Liang have a higher cultural accomplishment,they contacted with officials in Xiao-Liang and integrated with the upper layer.Because of the loss of military power in the middle and latter period and the identity of the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen,Xiao-Liang’s appointment to them,mainly reflected in the use of them as generals and led the army to attack the North.Especially in the late Northern Wei Dynasty Chaos,Xiao-Liang appointed the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen as the King of Wei and give them armies to Crusade the Northern.One of the biggest influence is Emperor Liangwu sent Chen Qingzhi to help Yuan Hao with the Northern Expedition.But because the Emperor Liangwu’s behavior itself was speculation and Yuan Hao was unwilling as a puppet,so he and Chen Qingzhi appear united outwardly but divided at heart.Finally they were defeated.Later in the process of Houjing Rebellion,Hou Jing also took advantages of part of the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen.Some were given authority of a king,some were granted official posts,others were subverted.This fact also showed that the existence of the centrifugal force between the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen who run to Xiao-Liang and the Xiao-Liang regime.Some of the Yuan-Wei imperial kinsmen who run to Xiao-Liang went back to the Northern later.The highly hanizated ones were obviously affected by the Southern dynasty’s culture.Their words and deeds,language and personal habits became role models.They became the communicators of the Southern academic circles to the Northern. |
