The history of the famous " Thirteen Shaolin Monks Rescue the King of Tang " story is listed below:
The last years of the Sui Dynasty witnessed a turbulent world in which various forces rose to conquer and control territories and wars seemed endless. Wang Shichong seized Luoyang, a major town in China then, and founded the kingdom of Zheng. He appointed his nephew Wang Renze as the marshal in charge of the military forces and ordered the army to fight here and there to defend or expand his land. The people, however, surfered the most and were thrown into an abyss of misery.
 
At that time, the Shaolin Temple had more than 60 hectares of fields about 8 kilometers away from Luoyang and arranged 13 monks good at martial arts to look after. By chance, Monk Zhishou responsible for feeding the beasts learned that a couple in exile picked a jade stamp carrying the name of its owner Li Shimin and that Li had been seized by Wang Renze. The monks took over the jade stamp and discussed the matter. They knew that Li Shimin and his father Li Yuan, respectively a king and the emperor of the newly founded Tang Dynasty, were good rulers, so people there lived in peace, stability and good welfare. In contrast, people on the land ruled by Wang Shichong had been suffering great hardship and bitterness of life. Finally the monks headed by Shanhu decided to rescue Li Shimin. Disguised as farmers selling firewood, the monks entered the town of Luoyang, launched a lightning-like surprise assault on the target jail, and successfully got Li out. Still dissatisfied, the heroes divided themselves into two groups, one escorted Li first out of the town, the other, five in total including Tanzong, Mingsong and Shanhui, went directly to try to capture Wang Renze. In the first move, they caught a soldier of Zheng and made him to guide them to Wang`s residence. When they moved to the right room, Wang Renze was just about to rape a woman. Tanzong broke in swiftly while Wang Renze responded immediately. Although the fighting went on fiercely, it ended quickly in Wang`s being beaten down to the ground. Tanzong and his companions tied up and carried Wang out of Luoyang right away. As the tow groups met, they rode the seized enemy`s horses and ran fast towards the area controlled by the Tang Dynasty. Soon the monks met with the Tang troops, then officially handed over the jade stamp and Wang Renze to Li Shimin and went back to their village.
Years later, when Li Shimin became the emperor of Tang called Taizong, he granted not only the title of "Great General" to Tanzong, but also a large number of awards including fields and money as well as exceptional policies to the Shaolin Temple in recognition of the martial monks` special meritorious services, Shaolin Temple ushered in one of its major boom ages in history.
