As we all know, feudalism prevailed in ancient times, although the social system of feudal dynasties is diametrically opposed to the thinking of the people today, but it is not enough to deny that in ancient times, dynasties that could endure for many years abounded.
The so-called Tang Dynasty is a peak period under the feudal system, the Tang Dynasty since the founding of the country, the economic strength, and social development has been changing rapidly, from the aspect of foreign trade can be seen, how strong the Tang Dynasty's national strength is.
Today's domestic comprehensive national strength has not yet reached the level of the top of the world, although it has emerged on the international stage, but the living standards of domestic society during the Tang Dynasty are considered to be the best in the world.
However, after the Anshi Rebellion, the tang dynasty's national strength was no longer what it used to be, and even there were faint signs of decline, the internal change of imperial power, and even the struggle led to frequent wars, the royal family fought for power, and in order to protect Empress He of Jiangshan, she could only grasp a weak straw, this person was Jiang Xuanhui.
The name of the Tang Dynasty is not empty, and it can also be understood from some historical biographies that the number of poor families during the Tang Dynasty was greatly reduced, and after the founding of the country, the emperor had a long-term vision and a unique way of managing the country.
The emperors knew that only when the people lived and worked in peace and contentment could the country and the imperial court stand in this world for a long time, and the Tang Dynasty, as a golden age, was extremely strong in terms of economic development and military strength.
During the Tang Dynasty, there were countless important ministers and scholars with amazing talents, and the ability of the generals of the First Army should not be underestimated, and the most important reason why the Tang Dynasty was able to push the feudal system to the peak was that it was also heavy on literature and heavy on martial arts.
The art of emperor is unfathomable For the courtiers in the dynasty, the emperor has always adhered to the attitude of equal treatment, and the Song Dynasty, which is well known to the world, is a typical Chongwen dynasty, and it is indispensable to cooperate with each other to make the country prosperous.
The Tang Dynasty spent hundreds of years in total, and only a few of the many emperors left a strong mark in the long river of history, such as the founding emperor Tang Gaozu, and then Li Shimin, who had a great talent, and the last emperor Tang Aidi, who completely ended the prosperous history of the Tang Dynasty.
A dynasty will inevitably experience the time of rise and decline, the cycle of cause and effect is the norm in the world, even though the Tang Dynasty has created countless brilliant achievements, but the founding emperor Tang Gaozu will never think of his descendants, and even failed to save this Li family.
Tang Gaozu has always been enthusiastic about state affairs, the establishment of the Tang Dynasty is his single-handed promotion, as the saying goes, the times create heroes, Tang Gaozu grew into an emperor in the chaotic world, and the imperial qi and the art of checks and balances he possessed were obtained from tribulations.
After experiencing wind and rain to see the rainbow, Tang Gaozu handed over the Li Clan Jiangshan to his descendants, his original intention was to pacify the Jiangshan and give the people a stable life, but when the imperial power changed from generation to generation, the mood of the Li descendants was gradually changed.
The people were wandering everywhere because of the ubiquitous war, and the war made them lose their homeland for survival, but the people in the royal family never cared about the situation of the people, and after many wars, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty was not as good as before.
A dynasty can only talk about expanding its territory if it first calms down the civil strife, and the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty has gradually become a history that is difficult to reproduce, and for the sake of the undercurrent of people and horses of the imperial power, only to wait for the best time, and in the late Tang Dynasty, the domestic situation became more and more turbulent, and the imperial power could not suppress the local power.
Such a ridiculous situation also represents the decline of the Tang Dynasty from the side, and at the same time, the inaction of the imperial court and the exploitation of those hateful officials have caused countless peasants to rise up, and rebellions and rebellions have filled every piece of land in the late Tang Dynasty.
After Tang Zhaozong ascended the throne, he saw the land full of chaos, and his heart was full of grief and indignation, and Li's Jiangshan must not be destroyed in his hands, so in order to quell the civil unrest, Tang Zhaozong decided to reuse a number of ministers, and while launching a large-scale war, the domestic military strength also suffered a huge blow.
Zhu Wen waited for the opportunity to move When Tang Zhaozong was slightly relaxed, he immediately launched a coup d'état, in which the military power was the best attack weapon, and the imperial art became vulnerable in the face of absolute force.
Afraid that Tang Zhaozong had a majestic strategy in his heart, he could only be forced to obey when his life was squeezed in the hands of others, and the later last emperor Tang Aizong had not yet grown up at this time, and Zhu Wen used the empress and the crown prince as a threat to control Tang Zhaozong.
At this time, Jiang Xuanhui, as a heavy courtier, actually chose to side with Zhu Wen, and when Empress He learned that Jiang Xuanhui was going to try to attack their mother and son, she suddenly had a plan, that is, to use herself to seek a future.
Jiang Xuanhui was Zhu Wen's confidant, and after Tang Zhaozong was killed, Jiang Xuanhui was ordered to take the lives of other concubines in succession, and in order to save aizi's life, Empress He decided to plot with the tiger.
Because she was in her prime, Empress He's face was even lighter, and the empress of a country begged Jiang Xuanhui to be proud of herself, and later under Empress He's intentional arrangement, Jiang Xuanhui saved their mother and son.
Since then, this fierce minister has become the last straw for Empress He to protect the Tang Dynasty, entering the palace to kill the king and forcibly occupying the empress of a country, and all kinds of behaviors fell into the eyes of the young Tang Ai emperor, which was so unsightly.
At this time, Zhu Wen was full of eyes to seize the imperial power, and the biggest threat to Tang Zhaozong had passed away, so even if Empress He's mother and son had the ability to enter the heavens and the earth, they could not set off a storm, so Zhu Wen tolerated the existence of Empress He's mother and son.
Later, Zhu Wen used Emperor Tang to stabilize Li's Jiangshan, and the year after Emperor Tang ascended the throne, Jiang Xuanhui was once again in danger, and under the command of Zhu Wen, he took the lives of nine princes in succession, all of whom were brothers of Emperor Tang.
At this time, Empress He had already been crowned empress, but Jiang Xuanhui's various behaviors made her feel disappointed, and Empress He personally watched her eldest son, who was killed but was powerless to return to heaven, and wanted to rely on Jiang Xuanhui but found that Zhu Wen had long since stopped trusting him.
Except for the honorific title of an empress dowager, she had no other power and chips in her hands, and Zhu Wen's wolf ambitions were coerced by Emperor Ai of Tang.
Later, after hearing that Jiang Xuanhui and Empress He had betrayed him for adultery, Zhu Wen directly ordered the two to be executed, and soon after, a Tang Emperor who had no power to bind the chicken also fell.
The tang dynasty has made countless countries and people look up to, and the founding emperor's majesty is worthy of praise now, but if a dynasty wants to prosper for hundreds of years, in addition to the ability of the king to be outstanding, the courtiers must also be loyal.
The affairs of the imperial court have always been unpredictable, power is as addictive as poppies, Zhu Wen is a greedy thief, and Jiang Xuanhui is even more so.
Whichever of the Nine Kings and Empresses of the Nine Dynasties was notorious, and Tang Aizong was born in a turbulent era and wanted to create a prosperous world, but found that there was nothing he could do.
Empress He also took pains to save Li's Jiangshan, and no matter what the outcome, Empress He's love for her son is still worthy of praise.
