Chapter 141 Is our Tang Dynasty still the current Tang Dynasty? ... (seeking subscription)
"Second Saint is coming to court, what do you mean?"

Everyone was a little confused about what Chen Fan said about the two saints coming to court.

You said that Wu Meiniang's palace fights with the queen, concubine Xiao Shu... the fight is over, I understand.

You said that Li Zhi achieved the goal of eradicating the power of the Guanlong Group by abolishing the latter, which is also understandable.

but.

What do you mean when you say that the Second Saint is coming to court?
In history, there doesn't seem to be any allusions about the two saints coming to court.

For this, Chen Fan was not in a hurry.

In the first half of Wu Zetian's life, it was actually very common, that is, a group of concubines were fighting in the palace, but Wu Meiniang won.

This has happened in all dynasties and dynasties.

But the second half of Wu Zetian's life was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"Because the old ministers such as Changsun Wuji were demoted from the capital, the power of the entire court was concentrated in the hands of Li Zhi. This is of course a good thing for the emperor Li Zhi. However, when the power is too large, the things to worry about Many times before, some political affairs could be handled by people like Changsun Wuji, but now, Li Zhi has to handle them by himself. But there are too many things to handle alone, what should we do? Naturally, Li Zhi I thought of asking Wu Meiniang to be his assistant."

This is actually normal.

If it's a fight, the queen can do it too.

but.

But at this time, maybe it was too tired, maybe it was something else... Li Zhi was actually sick.

And it's so severe that you can hardly see it with your eyes.

All of a sudden, the entire power was concentrated in the hands of Wu Meiniang.

"Teacher Chen Fan, something is wrong."

At this time.

Someone asked Chen Fan another question.

"Why not?"

"Mr. Chen Fan, Li Zhi is the emperor, even if Wu Meiniang is the queen, he can only handle official affairs as an assistant at most. And Li Zhi had a prince at that time, if the emperor couldn't handle things, he could leave it to the prince to handle. It’s okay to beat Wu Meiniang as an assistant, but it’s a little unreasonable to hand it over to Wu Meiniang.”

"It seems that everyone knows more about history."

Chen Fan laughed.

Although he had previously emphasized that Wu Meiniang was just a story.

Stories are just made up.

But if Wu Meiniang was just a story, then she would not have such a big influence.

Wu Meiniang is a living person in the history of her previous life, she walked to the center of power step by step.

Regarding this netizen's doubts, Chen Fan said: "I said before that when the Song Dynasty was founded, Song Taizu added a yellow robe, which had a profound impact on the entire Song Dynasty. Therefore, in the Song Dynasty, the entire policy was to emphasize civility over military affairs. Power has been suppressed all the time. For what reason, for fear that these generals will monopolize power and overthrow themselves at that time. The same is true for the Tang Dynasty. Do you remember how Tang Taizong became emperor..."

With this statement, all the netizens in the live broadcast room realized instantly.

In fact, Chen Fan said before, why did Li Zhi become the emperor?

It was entirely Li Chengqian and Li Tai who were fighting to the death, and finally the emperor fell into the hands of Li Zhi.

As for Li Zhi's father, that is, Tang Taizong, he got the position of emperor, and his reputation was not right.

If the father is like this, can Li Zhi still trust his son so much?

Dad can kill his brother and force his father to abdicate, will his son do the same?
natural.

Compared with the wife, the son cannot be trusted.

At the very least, he trusted his wife more.

In this regard, Chen Fan continued: "So, after Li Zhi was seriously ill at that time, he did not hand over more power to the prince, but to his wife. On the one hand, this is because of the relationship between the two husbands and wives. Deep, on the other hand, it is also because Li Zhi does not trust his own son. Of course, there is another way, that is to distribute this power to a group of ministers and prime ministers, and let them share the worries of the emperor. But Li Zhi is even more unwilling .It was so hard to fight off people like Changsun Wuji, how could he give away this power again?"

Everyone listened with gusto now.

At this time, Chen Fan not only told the story of Wu Meiniang, but also gave you a clear analysis of the entire history of the Tang Dynasty.

This is no longer a story about a woman, but a story related to the fate of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Although they knew that there was no such person as Wu Meiniang in the Tang Dynasty, the Wu Meiniang that Chen Fan said was incomparably in line with history.

It seems that if Wu Meiniang is really Wu Meiniang, these things will be logical and there is no violation of harmony.

"It is also because Li Zhi handed over most of the power to Wu Meiniang, so Wu Meiniang's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger. She is no longer satisfied with just being a queen, she wants to control the entire court. For this reason, she also Let Li Zhi make himself the queen of heaven and respect Li Zhi as the emperor. In order to show respect for Li Zhi, Wu Meiniang remained behind the scenes. In 654, the imperial court honored Li Zhi as the emperor and the empress as the queen of heaven... At this point, the Tang Dynasty ushered in the second Holy coming."

When talking about this, Chen Fan was also feeling emotional.

He also didn't know how Wu Zetian came to the position he is today step by step.

Is it her talent, ability, or the opportunity God gave her?

Or is it both together?
However, at this point, Chen Fan ended Wu Meiniang's live broadcast today.

But even though Chen Fan ended the live broadcast, the story about Wu Meiniang's "Second Sage Coming to Court" exploded in Xi'an with a bang.

"The Second Saint is coming to court."

"I'm stupid, this is too awesome."

"Which woman in history has done it?"

of course.

Not that no women have done it.

But many women in history were mostly when the emperor was too young, and then as queen mothers, they listened to politics behind the curtain.

But when the emperor was still there, the empress actually came to the front stage and really controlled the government?
Not only did he really control the government, but he also announced it in name.

Li Zhizun is the emperor, and Wu Meiniang is the queen.

This kind of story simply broke the three views of countless netizens, making them feel like they are some historical idiots.

"Well, I feel like my brain is not enough."

"I also feel, can anyone really do this?"

"Sister, novels can't be written like this..."

For this.

Chen Fan naturally knew what was going on.

For thousands of years, people have accepted the traditional idea of ​​male emperors and female queens.

They don't even think that women can come to the front and control the government.

Even if it is possible to control the government, it is done behind the scenes.

The two saints are in court... It can be said that this is an existence that could not have appeared in China for thousands of years.

……

"Chen Fan, you are too foolish."

"What's wrong?"

"Second Saint Linchao, you, you...how do you ask me to take pictures?"

Back at the hotel, Ning Xin was still a little overwhelmed by the story of Wu Meiniang's second sage coming to court.

Chen Fan was relatively calm, and said: "Why can't I shoot it? It's not true, it's just a story, you just shoot like this."

"I can not."

Ning Xin shook her head.

Although she does know that this story is really very attractive.

She can even use alternate history as an example.

but.

Stories like the Second Saint's coming to the court really have too much influence.

Big enough.

Even if such a film and television drama can be filmed, it will not pass the review, and it is impossible to appear in front of the audience.

after all.

It's okay if you make up a fictional queen.

It's okay if you make up a fictional queen to rule the court.

but.

You just say that the second sage is coming... This is really a serious challenge to the feudal imperial power.

Not to mention that the ancients at that time did not agree, modern people would not agree either.

"I have some regrets, 1000 million, you give it back to me."

"Stop it."

Chen Fan spread his hands: "The money went into my pocket, do you still want to take it back?"

……

"Brothers, today is really eye-opening."

"What opened your eyes?"

"Didn't you see Teacher Chen Fan's video?"

"I got it before, you mean Wu Meiniang that Teacher Chen Fan talked about."

"Correct."

"You're too old-fashioned, isn't Wu Meiniang just an ordinary Gongdou story, this can be regarded as an eye-opener."

"Tch, you haven't watched the latest video of Mr. Chen Fan. Wu Meiniang is not just fighting in the palace, she is now the second sage."

"Second Saint is coming to court, what do you mean?"

"Come, come, open your eyes."

have to say.

When Chen Fan told the story of Wu Meiniang's two sages coming to court, it caused an uproar in Xi'an, an ancient city with a history.

Countless people, countless XA citizens, countless netizens... were all short-circuited by what Chen Fan said about Wu Meiniang.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"The two sages are coming to court. In the 5000-year history of China, it is impossible for such a situation to occur."

"I really admire Mr. Chen Fan's storytelling skills, and I really admire him for being able to create a character like Wu Meiniang. But, can you have some historical knowledge? It is impossible for a character like Wu Meiniang to appear in history."

"However, although I also think it's impossible, the story of the two saints coming to court that Mr. Chen Fan told is indeed too exciting."

"Yeah, it's an eye-opener. I'm a novelist, and I wouldn't have imagined such a storyline even if I was killed. Thanks to Mr. Chen Fan, I found that if you want to write a good novel, you must break your own three views. Just like two Stories like Sheng Linchao, although I know it is impossible in reality, but if you can let go of your mind a little bit, the influence it will produce will definitely be at the level of a nuclear bomb."

"Actually, I support Teacher Chen Fan. As for the possibility of the Second Saint coming to court, I think there is."

"Why, are you a fan of Teacher Chen Fan?"

"No, I'm very calm now. Have you read it? Although Mr. Chen Fan is telling stories, all his stories fit perfectly with the history of the Tang Dynasty. For example, Mr. Chen Fan gave a very simple reason why Wu Meiniang was able to become a queen. It is the addition of the Tang Dynasty event where Li Zhi suppressed the Guanlong Group to take back power, which also makes the whole story more believable.

In addition, although it seems unlikely that the two saints will come to court.However, Li Zhi in the middle and late period of history did fall ill.Moreover, the reasons he gave are also very convincing.Rather than trusting his son or minister, he might as well trust his wife. "

"Yes, I agree too. If there hadn't been the change of Xuanwumen, and Li Chengqian and Li Tai's brothers hadn't fought, perhaps Wu Meiniang would not have had this opportunity at all. But in such a big environment, I am Li Zhi, and I believe in me My wife. After all, I would think, my wife will definitely not betray me. But my son, my minister, the probability of them betraying me is very high."

even.

Under Chen Fan's stimulation, many people came up with a very interesting topic.

If a butterfly flapped its wings, would history change course?

Assuming Wu Meiniang really existed, would our Tang Dynasty still be the current Tang Dynasty?
This is a very exciting topic.
