Video Clip: Top 10 Women in Power

The houses of the princes are all new owners, and the civil and military clothes are different from the past.

Looking back at the poor singing and dancing place, Qinzhong has been an emperor since ancient times.

Three hundred miles northeast of Chang'an City, there is an empty and simple Tang Tai Mausoleum.It started construction after Li Longji's death, and was rushed to completion in less than a year.

Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, who reigned for 50 years, created the luxurious and romantic "Kaiyuan Prosperous Age", but the place of his mausoleum is far inferior to that of his father Li Dan's Qiaoling and his grandmother Wu Zetian's Qianling.

In the end, only Empress Yuan Xian and eunuch Gao Lishi were with him, and the woman who joined forces to bring down the Tang Dynasty disappeared without a trace like love
In 713 AD, the 28-year-old Li Longji went to the throne alone, and changed his year name to "Kaiyuan".

In the previous 40 years, three women held up half the sky of Tang Dynasty.It was because of their failure that the third son of the concubine had the opportunity to inherit the seal of the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Zetian came to power and Li Xian became emperor.

Empress Wei monopolized power, and Li Dan became emperor.

Princess Taiping fought for power, and Li Longji became emperor.

Grace is born of harm, and harm is born of grace!After four coups, Li Longji watched the death and injury of his relatives, and yearned for the prosperity of his grandfather even more in his heart.

The same is that Li Shimin also became emperor at the age of 28.

The difference is that Li Longji's team is relatively weak.

After only being emperor for two months, Tang Xuanzong began to alienate the gang of meritorious officials.He is no longer a natural person, but the only legal person of the Tang Empire.

Good buddies can be smart at critical moments, but their level of governance and stability is not good. For example, Lao Cui is still bragging that "I will act in a temporary way in my life, and I don't have to stick to the original plan."

What was the most expensive in the eighth century AD?Comprehensive compound talents!
Tang Xuanzong fell in love with Yao Chong, a veteran of the four dynasties who had been prime minister since Wu Zetian's time.He was going to tear a hole to wake up those heroes.

After the deterrence of the military parade, a large number of heroes were successfully transferred from important positions.These buddies are very disappointed, and often complain in the circle of friends: Xiao Li, you have changed, boss, you are not kind.

Tang Xuanzong didn't care about it, and said: Youqiu and others are all heroes, and they are idle at the beginning, and they are slightly depressed, which may be human.With great accomplishments and great honor and favor, once he is sent to prison, he will be frightened and heard from afar.

Power cannot be given to you, but wealth can.

Tang Xuanzong, who lived under the shadow of power struggles since childhood, was far more intelligent than ordinary people in this respect.But he is not like some emperors who play the game of killing donkeys to the extreme.

Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty arranged for people to monitor his brothers, but he often held folk art gatherings with them, and the music of the zither seemed to return to his childhood.

As long as nothing happens, we will always be family.

Through this series of combined punches, Tang Xuanzong gently eliminated the risk of imperial power.Among them is his inner desire for power, and the figure of Prime Minister Yao Chong.

Before Yao Chong went to work, he gave Tang Xuanzong ten suggestions (ten things to say).

The specific content is similar, and it can be summarized into two points: 1.You must work hard to restrain your selfish desires; 2.Our journey is the sea of ​​stars.

The passionate and ambitious Tang Xuanzong was very obedient and strictly abided by the rules and regulations in everything.Don't talk about benefiting my brother-in-law, I can't even set up a tombstone for my mother (the time is drought and frugal, so I can't make meritorious deeds).

Yao Chong devoted himself to his work, stirring up the situation in the Tang Dynasty: Everyone wants to be a Beijing official, right?Then conduct a performance review!Those who can't do well in the capital will be demoted, and those who can do well in the local area will be promoted.

Once, Yao Chong brought a batch of promotion lists to report.Tang Xuanzong looked at the ceiling for a while, and called Gao Lishi to make honey water for a while, but ignored him at all.

Lao Yao recited it three times dryly, but saw Xuanzong's disapproval.He went out anxiously, still thinking about what made the emperor dissatisfied.

Gao Lishi chased him out and grabbed Yao Chong: The boss said, you have to find him for such a big deal. Is your prime minister's annual salary paid for nothing?

It is better to be limited to choosing people than to trust them lightly!Tang Xuanzong once ascended to the throne of God by relying on his great trust, but this time he moved all the ministers to a mess.

In 716, a plague of locusts broke out after a severe drought.

The locusts formed a group to eat from Shandong to Henan. Except for food and trees, they only ate rocks.What's even more frightening is that this guy lays eggs faster than he eats.

The common people were so frightened that they made a locust statue out of mud and knelt down to worship it every day, while the imperial court was still holding a meeting to discuss whether to kill the locusts. It was a feudal superstition that killed people.

Yao Chong held a national food contest, and many live broadcasters flocked to it.Eating raw, deep-fried, and soaked in vinegar are all kinds of ways, and 1400 million catties of locusts can be killed in Bianzhou alone.

The disaster situation has eased, but something happened to Prime Minister Yao.

Lao Yao is vigorous and resolute in doing big things, and has a unique insight in hugging Xiaoqian.His two sons and Ma Tsai were reported for accepting illegal money, but he took a tough attitude and publicly covered them up.

Of course Yao Chong had confidence, he would be carried into the palace to work when he was sick, and the Emperor of Tang would definitely not be able to do without him.But this time, the shrewd and capable Lao Yao miscalculated.

Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged prime ministers are plentiful.

In addition to disgusting Yao Chong's self-established small circle, Tang Xuanzong felt that he had been abandoned by the carriage of the times.After three years of rectification by the "time-saving prime minister", Tang Xuanzong is ready to upgrade the gameplay.

Not long after, Song Jing, who was extremely upright, became prime minister.

Unlike Yao Chong, who is flexible and generous, Song Jing is a person who accepts death.He dared to fight against Wu Zetian's male favourite, Wu Sansi, and Princess Taiping. After being an official for half his life, he couldn't even afford a suite.

Although Datang has shown signs of recovery, the 31-year-old Xuanzong was not intoxicated by it.In such a high position, there is nothing to be proud of earning [-] million first.

He needs a strong moral benchmark to continue to strengthen and strengthen the national style.

Tang Xuanzong knew that this was making himself unhappy, but he also understood that personnel affairs can only advance through tempering.Just like the tortuous and rough childhood life, now it has become a valuable asset.

Once a solar eclipse occurred, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty said that he would sacrifice to the sky, and sometimes he would go on a hunger strike.Anyway, I just want to make some news about introspection, so that it can be used to stabilize the hearts of the people all over the world.

Song Jing said sternly: "What's the use of fixing those vain things, go to work and do the right thing (I'm so respectful, even though I don't like it, I just follow it).

Three years have passed, and the national power of the Tang Dynasty has grown steadily (the four directions are rich and rich, and the people are prosperous).Tang Xuanzong thought it was time to upgrade, so Song Jing was also abandoned by the carriage of the times.

In 722, Zhang Yue, who was both civil and military, became prime minister.

The liberal arts student who was the best in the world at the time was forced by Yao Chongkeng to lead troops to fight in a small place, but in the end he settled three rebellions in the frontier.

Since one admires the prosperity of Zhenguan, how can Wenzhi and martial arts be biased?

Establishing Lizheng Academy: Gather a large number of literary talents, and give everything except daughter-in-law.Tiantian compiles various literary classics, among which the poet Kuang He Zhizhang is.

Reform the military system: Abolish the militia model of carrying hoes to the field in the morning and carrying knives and guns in the afternoon.For the first time, an all-professional army was formed, and wages and labor insurance were issued on a head-by-head basis.

Division of administrative responsibilities: put an end to the chaos where all the team builders arrive at the meeting and all the overtime workers run away.When implementing the New Deal to specific positions, no one should try to play tricks.

Tang Xuanzong strategized among the small houses, and the famous ministers worked hard in the court.This super battleship with the largest tonnage in the world runs perfectly in the hands of the young emperor.

Unlike the prime minister who can be transferred to recuperate after a few years, Tang Xuanzong has not slept in for more than ten years.This is in exchange for a prosperous age that surpasses the rule of Zhenguan, and it is only a prototype.

That year, Tang Xuanzong was only 40 years old.

Three feet of Longquan ten thousand volumes of books, what is God's will for me.

If you can't serve the country and the world, you are in vain to be a man.

All civil and military officials were excited, this is a great honor that can only be seen once in a few lifetimes.Tang Xuanzong was even more passionate, and he was about to be promoted to the first-line emperor of Qinhuang and Hanwu.

Tang Xuanzong and the monarchs of the subordinate countries climbed to the top of Mount Tai, and the team of hundreds of miles lined up to the foot of the mountain.Looking at the red sun bursting out of the sea of ​​clouds in the east, Li Longji suddenly felt mixed feelings.

Father's family dead
exile
I was imprisoned for 13 years

Aunt Princess Taiping
dismiss friends and brothers
Since becoming emperor, I have never dared to slack off, so let's pay homage to you with today's peace in the world.But is such a price worth it?Maybe there will never be an answer.

Tang Xuanzong's Zen Conferring Ceremony was very successful. It was the most successful and of course the most luxurious among the ten Zen conferring activities by the Six Emperors in the entire Chinese history.

Once the desire and passion in the bottom of the heart is opened, it is very difficult to take it back.

Tang Xuanzong was like a wage earner who stayed up late and worked overtime every day, and suddenly found that all the shareholders were kneeling beside him.After tasting the noble glory of the most extreme power, Li Longji also began to drift.

His childhood experience made him extremely lack of love in his heart.

Literary and artistic hobbies made his emotions more delicate.

There are [-] beauties in Tang Xuanzong's harem, but still can't feel the true feelings from the heart.Even the most beloved concubine Wu Hui is largely due to her heroic spirit.

As she grows older, Concubine Wu Hui gradually worries about the fading of her looks and loves her.Seeing the death of Prince Li Ying's mother, she changed the way to persuade Tang Xuanzong to change his successor.

It's a pity that his own son Li Mao is ranked eighteenth, and there are too many princes who need to be killed.Concubine Wu Hui also felt that the amount of work was a bit heavy, and racked her brains to become a queen.

At this time, the territory of the Tang Dynasty was more than 1000 million square kilometers, and there were nearly 70 large and small vassal states.The city of Chang'an was built to look like the headquarters of the United Nations, with foreigners everywhere.

Tang Xuanzong was intoxicated by his great talents and strategies, trying to find the missing part in his life.Power is no longer a sharp tool for the benefit of the people, but a tool for self-enjoyment.

Concubine Wu Hui was brainwashed every night before going to bed, but Tang Xuanzong wanted to become a queen, but Zhang Jiuling strongly opposed it.The great poet who wrote "the bright moon rises above the sea, and the world shares this moment" finally became the last famous figure in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

At the same time, Li Linfu began to emerge.

Concubine Wu Hui conspired with Li Linfu for several years in order to make Li Mao the crown prince.When I looked back, I found that my son was almost an older man.

The matter of the successor is a long-term plan. My mother will first choose a daughter-in-law for you who has the potential to be a queen.

Li Hao brought his daughter-in-law into the palace to report that Tang Xuanzong had already prepared a big red envelope.He was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, and asked kindly and gently: What's your name?
Yang Yuhuan!
In 737, Concubine Wu Hui finally decided to go big, and she framed the prince and her two younger brothers for rebellion.

Tang Xuanzong, who was over fifty years old, had already melted into his comfort zone with his wise and martial arts.In addition, Li Linfu added oil and vinegar, and the emperor killed his three sons in a rage.

The tragedy of killing blood relatives is staged again, and the root cause is still the same as it was more than 20 years ago: power.

It took Concubine Wu Hui ten years to bring down the prince, but in the end Li Heng got a big deal.This time, he fell ill in just one night, and he still felt that Li Ying was haunted by wrongdoing.

Not long after, Concubine Wu Hui died of illness, but the retribution did not stop.

After the death of Concubine Wu Hui, Tang Xuanzong became even more lonely.

That winter, he took the royal children and grandchildren to Lishan to soak in the hot springs.Seeing Yang Yuhuan, who is 164 in height and 140 in weight, Tang Xuanzong couldn't help but praise: the food is good.

Yang Yuhuan smiled shyly and coquettishly, and two red clouds appeared on her fair face.Tang Xuanzong suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning, which was a heart tremor he had never experienced before.

Is this what it feels like to be electrocuted?

After taking a bath in the bathhouse, Tang Xuanzong held a folk art party as usual.This emperor of literature and art, who is both talented and melodious, can beat the Jiegu to the level that even the barbarians are willing to bow down.

Watching Yang Yuhuan jump happily on the dance floor, her wonderful dance moves perfectly on the point of music.Tang Xuanzong stared blankly: Why didn't you feel it when we met for the first time?

Meeting the right person at the right time may be called love.

Tang Xuanzong turned his head to look at Li Mao, but he met his son's eyes.Li Mao lowered his head in horror, but he was as arrogant as a big rooster fighting for victory.

Tang Xuanzong relied on his broad mind to create the prosperity of Kaiyuan, and even foreigners can become third-rank officials of the Tang Dynasty.As for the secular moral constraints, in his eyes they are more like paper tigers.

He sent Gao Lishi to do ideological work for Li Mao, and then sent Yang Yuhuan to the Taoist temple in the palace in the name of praying for blessings.Before the internship period was over, Xiao Yang slept on the Dragon Kang.

No one asked for Li Mao's opinion. The only thing he was lucky about was that he didn't have a child with Yang Yuhuan, otherwise the baby should call him father or brother in the future.
In 745, Tang Xuanzong remarried Li Mao's daughter-in-law, and ten days later he officially conferred the title of Concubine Yang Gui.The two fathers held weddings one after the other. It is true that some people are happy and others are worried.

This emperor of literature and art who lacked love since childhood, his heart is as dry as a thousand miles away.And Concubine Yang Guifei's surging tenderness will become the last trembling in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

That year, Li Longji was 60 years old and Yang Guifei was 26 years old.

Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was completely immersed in his passionate love. He lost his temper and drove Concubine Yang back to her natal family, and then carried her into the palace in a big way, and wrote a love story that was selected into "Three Hundred Poems of Tang Dynasty".

The bun is suitable for a palace, the lotus face is tender, and the body is red and fragrant.Eyebrows do not need to be painted openly, the heavenly teachings make the temples grow longer.Don't lean on the beauty of the country, marry someone who has a lover.When we were young, don't miss the good times.

Apart from enjoying the Huaqing Pool, the old couple and young wife also have a tacit understanding in the hobby of folk art."Neon Clothes and Feather Dress Dance", composed by Tang Xuanzong and choreographed by Yang Guifei, has always topped the list of major platforms.

He is no longer the majestic legal person of the Tang Empire, but just a romantic talent of flesh and blood.

The small room where the strategy was planned back then has long been abandoned, and only cliques are left above the court.The once mighty and majestic Datang battleship was rusted due to serious loss of insurance.

Since Yang Guozhong became the prime minister, he even ate pancake rolls and croquettes-hitting them with a cannon.

In 755, Anlu Mountain rebelled in the name of attacking Yang Guozhong (see Qinling Yibai. Anlu Mountain).

After more than ten years of indulgence and pleasure, Tang Xuanzong's IQ has already fallen below the issue price.After hearing the slander from all kinds of villains around him, he directly chopped off two famous generals, Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing.

When the rebels hit Tongguan, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty suggested running away.A small official said: Please recruit the daredevils and court officials in the city immediately, and lead their children to the army to prevent it.

This person is Gao Shi, who is the famous poet who wrote "Mo Chou has no confidant in the future, and no one in the world knows the king".

Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty announced in public that he wanted to go to the imperial conquest, but he ran away with thousands of imperial guards that night.The 70-year-old white-haired man has no memory of what he looked like when he was young.

It was not until the court the next day that the ministers discovered that the boss had slipped away.Next, the entire city of Chang'an went into a runaway mode, and countless people were trampled to death.

The Anshi Rebellion, which lasted eight years, shattered the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

The sky began to drizzle, and Tang Xuanzong fled westward covered in mud.He sent someone to notify the magistrate in advance to pick him up, but he didn't even see a ghost.

I heard that the emperor has run away, but anyone with more flexible legs and feet has already run away.

The soldiers were so hungry that they were lying on the ground one by one, so there is no honor for the emperor and his ministers.The elegant "Da Tang Kaiyuan Ceremony" back then is not as good as a roll of toilet paper now.

Tang Xuanzong rested under a tree, and occasionally some old farmers came to deliver some food.They lamented that if it hadn't been for this national calamity, how could they have had the opportunity to witness the emperor Longyan.

Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty could only smile bitterly in embarrassment, looking at these hard-to-eat crude food, and said to the people around him: How to get food?
When they reached Mawei post, General Chen Xuanli of Longwu became angry.He and his generals abandoned the whole family in Chang'an City, but they were still yelled at by Yang Guozhong along the way.

Lao Chen chopped Yang Guozhong straight away.

Tang Xuanzong's first reaction was not to be angry, but to awaken the fear deep in his memory.This bloody murderous smell is all too familiar, but he doesn't have any leverage.

Chen Xuanli: For the great plan of the country, those who are loyal to the country can be punished by the law.

Tang Xuanzong:
Chen Xuanli: All the generals punished the loyalty of the country, but with noble concubines in the palace, human feelings were fearful.

Tang Xuanzong: The imperial concubine often lives in the deep palace, knowing that the country's loyalists are rebelling.
Gao Lishi grabbed Xuanzong's sleeve and said in a low voice: "The generals are safe, and your majesty is safe!"

After Concubine Yang Gui committed suicide, Tang Xuanzong seemed to wake up from a dream.He said to the crowd: I must be lucky in Shu, if there are many people, I am afraid that it will be difficult to bear.Now that there is such a color, Qing and others should share it, and go to each picture.

When Tang Xuanzong went to Sichuan, most of the people followed Prince Li Heng.After Tang Suzong ascended the throne in Lingwu and proclaimed himself emperor, Li Longji was automatically promoted to become the Supreme Emperor.

Two years later, Tang Suzong regained Chang'an, and Li Longji was placed under house arrest in the Dragon Palace after returning to Beijing.In order to eliminate the risk of imperial power, Li Heng dismissed all the old people around his father.

Li Longji wandered alone all day long, with only the cold and bright moonlight dragging a accompanying figure on the ground.

He often stares at the night sky, and there seems to be a familiar but vague face in the moon.It was the mother he lost when he was seven years old, and she seemed to say with great distress: Sanlang, how did you live like this?
In 762 AD, Li Longji, who was inseparable from each other, passed away in depression at the age of 78.
