The question about Li Bing's successor is not a small problem, both in the past and now.

As a vassal state of China, the former Ming and the Qin Dynasty both had sectarian sovereignty over Korea. Sect sovereignty is reflected in all aspects. The most important one is the name of the great righteousness, which is the most important meaning of sect sovereignty.

The name of the great righteousness is invisible and intangible, but it is the most important part of the entire sect sovereignty. Without this part, the sect sovereignty is really nothing.

But with the title of great righteousness, the sovereignty becomes very practical.

This is specifically reflected in the former Ming Dynasty and Daqin's right to speak for the successors of the Korean king.

Since the founding of Li Chenggui, North Korea has been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Even the name of North Korea was decided by Zhu Yuanzhang. After that, the Ming Dynasty sent officials to announce the canonization, and then the Korean kings could exercise their ruling power legitimately.

This shows that the ascension of the Korean king requires two steps. One is to obtain internal recognition, permission from the previous king, and then the recognition from the Ming Dynasty, permission from the suzerain state, and sending people to enthrone, which is legitimate.

The word "righteous" does not seem important, but it is particularly important in political life. Those who rule must have enemies. If they cannot do things right, they will definitely be opposed by opponents.

Holding a legitimate banner against you, you will always find supporters.

Therefore, all dynasties must always pay attention to the rightfulness of doing things, otherwise the position will not be done steadily and the work will not be done steadily.

This is the case with the King of Korea. Under the deep sinicization, many things also pay attention to a legitimate meaning. Without the enthronement of the Ming Dynasty, even if you are appointed by the king, someone will definitely oppose you and overthrow you. Li Bing's successor, Guanghaijun, Li Hui, is such a tragic figure.

His affairs are still inseparable from the general environment and background.

The inheritance of the throne in Korea is like the Central Plains Empire, which emphasizes the establishment of legitimate ruler, and no legitimate ruler. This is a rule. When Li Hui was the King of Guanghai, he was wise, kind and famous. Compared with his brother, Linhai, Li Yan, his reputation was much better.

Moreover, this brother was once captured by Kiyoshi Kato and directly lost the possibility of inheriting the throne. Under Lee Seung, the one who is most expected to inherit the throne of Korea is Lee Hung.

During the Japanese turmoil in the Ion Chen, the only one who is still good in the Korean royal family was Lee Hui. When Lee Wong ran away, Lee Hui was left to coordinate the three ways that North Korea could still command, giving local people confidence and making them believe that the country has not yet perished, so they became the spiritual leader of a large number of Korean civilian troops.

Later, Xiao Ruxun led his army into the North Korea, and Li Hui also assisted Xiao Ruxun in many ways in battle. Like Liu Chenglong, he was a rare and capable teammate. Therefore, when Xiao Ruxun left North Korea, he also praised Li Hui's ability and said that Li Hui was blessed and had such a good son.

Xiao Ruxun clearly remembered that Li Bing's expression was uncomfortable at that time.

It's not as proud as a father who heard that others praise his son.

Xiao Ruxun quickly understood this point, because above his father, Li Bing and the identity of King Joseon. Once he was involved in this identity, he understood everything. For the sake of power, stories of father and son tragedy and brothers tragedy are common, and the same is true for Li Bing and Li Hui.

Because of Li Yong's poor performance in the Ionchen War, there were voices in the Korean civilian army that wanted to support Li Hui and depose Li Yong very early, which made Li Yong extremely alert. After the war ended and restored stability, Li Yong directly deposed all Li Hui's power and let him be his Guanghaijun honestly.

Despite this, Lee Hui's outstanding performance in the war allowed many Korean civil officials to see hope, and they spontaneously supported Lee Hui as the heir to the throne.

For Li Jian, Li Hui is actually a good choice, because his wife, the queen, has never given birth. Li Hui and her brother Li Yu were raised by the queen. If Li Yu loses the possibility of inheriting the throne, then Li Hui is the best choice.

However, Li Hui's fatal flaw is that he is neither the legitimate son nor the eldest son. Therefore, when it comes to North Korea, which is a legitimate son, Li Hui has a natural disadvantage.

Not only that, Li Hui also has a major flaw, which is that his reputation is so good that he surpasses Li Chi, which makes Li Chi feel in great crisis.

Therefore, in the war, Li Bing made a teaching in order to appease the people's hearts and appointed Li Hui as the prince's son, and sent someone to request the title from the Ming court.

However, at that time, the Ming court was also very sensitive to the struggle between the legitimate and the eldest son because of the dispute over the foundation of the country. At this time, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were naturally unwilling to let the vassal states set a precedent.

So Li Hui was implicated in the dispute over the foundation of the country and was rejected by the Ming court for five consecutive times, which actually just happened to Li Bing's intention.

Li Jian's attitude towards this matter was quite negative. He thought that if he was still alive, you would be heirs. This was completely cursing him to die early. So he had obstructed the team that sought enthronement. Now the Ming court directly refused, and he was too happy.

I originally thought that this matter could be delayed, and after the Japanese riots, his infertile queen was sick all the time. Her condition was repeated and her body became weaker and weaker. She seemed to be almost out of reach, and Li Bing already had the idea of ​​marrying the queen and challenging her legitimate son.

As a result, in that stall, in the 26th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was reborn. After half a year, the Ming Dynasty collapsed in two hundred years, and replaced it with the new Qin Empire established by Xiao Ruxun, Duke of Qin of the Ming Dynasty.

The internal chaos of North Korea was in chaos, and finally survived the crisis of relations with Qin. The Jurchens followed one after another. North Korea was once again facing the danger of national destruction, but with the help of the Qin Dynasty, it preserved its rule.

Before everything could be restored to stability, Li Bing's queen died of illness in the bumps.

After dying of illness, Li Chi finally waited for the opportunity to remarry his wife, so he immediately looked for a new queen, intending to make fun of her. In March of the second year of Longwu, Li Chi married the new queen and couldn't wait to work harder to create a person. Finally, before Li Chi Chi set out, the new queen became pregnant.

This news was shocking. Li Bing was very excited and set off to Daqin with excitement, intending to explain this issue to Xiao Ruxun himself and win Xiao Ruxun's support.

Like the Ming court, Xiao Ruxun's Qin also supported the system of establishing legitimate and chief. He early enthroned his eldest son Xiao Zhenbang as the crown prince and set an example in the world. Li Bing believed that Xiao Ruxun would support him.

As a result, Xiao Ruxun took the initiative to mention this matter, and Li Bing felt that it was necessary to tell Xiao Ruxun what he thought.

"Your Majesty, before I set out, the Queen is pregnant."

Li Bing looked at Xiao Ruxun's face carefully.

Xiao Ruxun didn't have any surprise expression.

"Oh? The queen is pregnant? Li Qing is only two months after marrying the queen, and the queen is pregnant?"

Li Bing hurriedly said, "That's true. Since I ascended the throne, the former king has never had anything to come out. I have no legitimate son. I feel deeply regretful, so I have always hoped that a legitimate son could inherit the throne."
