Dmitry Ivanovich Shuisky SK. With the reign of his brother, he occupied the main military and state posts. Ivan Ivanovich Shuisky SK. Dmitry Ivanovich Shuisky, returned to his death by the Shuisky clan in Russia. Prince Andrei Alexandrovich is sadly known that he fought for the Grand Duke to the throne with his older brother Dmitry Pereyaslavsky, intrigued against his brother in the Horde and repeatedly brought the Tatar rati to Rus'.

When Dmitry died, Andrei was already ongoing at the full -blooded table and ruled for about ten years, until his death in the year. Then the Grand Duchy of Vladimir passed to representatives of other branches of the Rurikovich family - to the Tver and Moscow princes. Of the descendants of Andrei Gorodetsky, who established themselves in the Suzdal-Nigerodsky principality, only one-Dmitry Konstantinovich-in the middle of the XIV century managed to get a label from the Tatar khan for a great reign in Vladimir.

However, it was difficult for the Nizhny Novgorod prince to resist the stronger and intensified Moscow. Soon he had to come to terms with the loss of a great reign and even conclude with the Moscow Prince Dmitry Ivanovich a Union, enshrined in the marriage of the future Don hero with the Nizhny Novgorod Princess Evdokia daughter Dmitry Konstantinovich. But the friendship of the Nizhny Novgorod and Moscow princes could not stand the test during the invasion of Tokhtamysh in the year: Dmitry Konstantinovich and his sons were in the camp of the enemy.

It was the sons of Dmitry Nizhny Novgorod, Vasily and Semyon, who helped the enemy capture Moscow: they vowed the city’s defenders vowed in the absence of evil intentions from the Tatar khan, and the resistance was discontinued. Subsequently, the brothers paid for treason. Vasily, who went down in history, under the nickname of Kirdyap, was expelled from Nizhny Novgorod with his nephew, the son of Dmitry Donskoy, the Grand Duke of Moscow Vasily I.

Instead of the expected Nizhny Novgorod principality, Vasily Kirdyapa received the city of Shu. A lot of hardships and wandering fell on the share of the second of the brothers - Semyon Dmitrievich.Princes Vasily and Semyon Dmitrievichi are the ancestors of Shuisky. During the unification of the Russian lands around Moscow, the Shuisky resisted the great Moscow princes, but, being unable to resist them, they retired to Novgorod and the Dvina.

Then, supplanted from the north, they began to serve the Moscow sovereigns. At the court of the Moscow princes, Shuisky occupied a high position, as they were born of the boyars. Many representatives of this surname became outstanding statesmen - large commanders and administrators. At the same time, the Princes of Shuisky, who belonged to the older branch of the Rurikovich, than the Moscow princes who came from the youngest son of Nevsky, for several generations tried to seize the supreme power in the country.

Their desire for power was unchanged, and in the struggle for it they did not disdain any means. The descendants of the Suzdal-Nizhny Novgorod princes, who occupied a prominent position in the ranks of the Moscow boyars, were active participants in many significant events of the XVI-early XVII centuries. He repeatedly defeated the then enemies of Russia - the Livonian Germans and Lithuanians, participated in the reflection of the raid of the Crimean Tatars, put the Moscow protege on the Khan's throne in Kazan.

In addition, when he was his Smolensk governor, Shuisky exposed the conspiracy of the Smolensk boyars and a bishop, who intended to move to the side of Lithuania, outweighed on the walls of the city of traitors-Boyar, and gave the bishop to the sovereign. Such activities won Vasily Shuisky the arrangement of the Grand Duke. In the last years of the reign of Vasily III, Prince Shuisky became one of the first people in the country and enjoyed the trust of the sovereign.

According to some assumptions, at that time Shuisky was a Moscow governor, which gave him great power and influence. Dying, the Grand Duke Vasily Ivanovich instructed him to take care of his wife, Grand Duchess Elena, about the young son of the future Tsar Ivan the Terrible and about the entire Moscow state. However, after the death of Vasily III, the young prince Telepnev-Obolensky managed to remove Shuisky from power, leaving him the honorary rank of the first boyar of the sovereign Duma.

This was not satisfied with Vasily Vasilyevich Shuisky, but he preferred to wait for his time and continued military service. In the year, the Grand Duchess Elena Glinskaya died, who patronized Telepnev-Obolensky went rumors that she was poisoned by Shuisky himself, who had rushed to power. Telepnev-Obolensky was thrown into prison and, in all likelihood, hunger.

Shuisky received almost unlimited power, however, wanting to strengthen it even more, he married a cousin of young Ivan IV. This marriage was concluded against the will of the bride, Princesses of Anastasia Petrovna, which was not surprising - Vasily Shuisky at that time was more than fifty years old. But the struggle for power did not end. Prince Ivan Belsky began to intrigue against Shuisky, to whom part of the court boyars and Metropolitan Daniel joined.

Belsky wanted to weaken the power of Shuisky and exalt his family at court, but the Shuisky were stronger. Belsky was imprisoned, and his adherents were sent to remote villages. In the patronage of his brother, he occupied one of the first places under the Grand Duke Vasily Ivanovich. He was distinguished by cruelty, unbridled ambition and the desire for lawless enrichment. It was Ivan Shuisky who was the instigator of the brutal reprisal against Belsky and his supporters.

After the death of his brother Vasily Vasilyevich, Ivan Shuisky, in the year, took his place in the Boyar Duma, and since that time his arbitrariness was not limited by anything. Ivan IV subsequently recalled how he boldly behaved this prince, not even revealing to the sovereign: "We playing in his youth in his youth, and Prince Ivan Vasilievich sits on a bench, leaning his elbow on a bed, but not bowing to us." The time of the boyar government, when the Shuisky occupied a dominant position in the country, left bitter memories in the memory of Ivan IV.
