There were many powerful dynasties in ancient China
But when it comes to impact on the world
Tang Dynasty is a well deserved No.1
Such a powerful Dynasty
What kind of emperors did they produce
One of my favorite words about history
It’s Datang’s turn today
?
The reign time of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was a matter of national fortune
Tang Shunzong, the shortest reigning emperor
Only 8 months
Tang Xuanzong, the longest reigning emperor
44 years
After Xuanzong, most emperors’ reigns
Not more than 20 years
Frequent changes in the throne led to extremely unstable policies
Often the last emperor insisted
The next emperor turned the corner
For example, Wuzong exterminates Buddha
Xuanzong, the successor of Wu Zong, revived Buddhism
Some people say
If there is a monarch who has been in office long enough
Maybe it can reverse the decline after the an Shi rebellion
Unfortunately, no if
The Tang Dynasty abounds in strong women
Queen, princess, female minister, female literati
Talented people come forth in large numbers
Wu Zetian, who became a female emperor
Empress Wei (Zhongzong) almost became the second Empress Wu Zetian
Princess Anle (Zhongzong) who wants to be the Empress Dowager
Empress Zhang (suzong) who wants to abolish the prince and establish a new king
Consort Guo (Xianzong), who colluded with eunuchs to push her son to the top
As for Shangguan Waner, yuxuanji, Li Ye, etc
Either he became an official in the imperial court, or he was familiar with poetry and books
There are countless talented women
So medium
In the late Tang Dynasty, in order to prevent the empress from interfering in politics
No queen for more than 130 years
Neither the queen nor the prince
From Wu Zong to Zhao Zong in the late Tang Dynasty
The emperor never set up a crown prince in his lifetime
There are various reasons
There are those who want to make it (Wuzong)
There are those who are too faint to stand (Yi Zong)
And fear that power will be undermined
He doesn’t intend to establish a prince at all (Xuanzong)
Emperor Zhaozong of the Tang Dynasty finally established a prince
It turned out that the prince forced him into a supreme emperor
Once again
The disaster of eunuchs in the Tang Dynasty
It is the best of all dynasties
To establish, kill and abolish a monarch is like a child’s play
Neither the later Han nor the Ming Dynasty could match it
Eunuchs are divided into political parties
Mutual overturning
Collude with court officials
Collude with the vassal towns
As a servant of the emperor, he never lost his life
Cancer was common in the late Tang Dynasty
Finally, this cancer was cut off by Qiang fan
But the life span of Datang also follows
Here we go
Finally
The cause of death of some emperors in the Tang Dynasty became a mystery
Were they dead or killed by eunuchs?
There’s too much to say
But one thing is recognized
The Tang emperor loved refining pills
21 emperors, 9 took longevity drugs
Taizong, xiaotaizong (Xuanzong)
They were all killed by drugs
Which one lives the longest?
ha-ha
martial! Then! God!
