Chapter 260 The first female emperor Wu Zhao
Great Qin.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

This rhythm is so familiar.

His hand involuntarily took out the Jiuxin Pill from his arms and threw it into his mouth.

I hope Li Shimin can hold on.

I have a hunch that this is going to be a big deal.

……

Big man.

Liu Bang and Lu Pheasant looked at each other.

"Did you notice?"

Lu Zhi shook his head in confusion as well.

It shouldn't be. There are no particularly conspicuous relatives of the Wu family?
……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Heng was a little confused. He couldn't understand it for the first time.

Although there were some border troubles, the economy also experienced some bad harvests.

But the Tang Dynasty was still at its peak, right?
Unlike in the late Han Dynasty, when the people were in dire straits, why did the world suddenly change?

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che lay back.

I just say that removing the mother and leaving the son is the best plan to stabilize the world!

Look!
No need to guess, the Wu family is going to produce another "Wang Mang"!
This Wu Zetian is the Queen Mother!
only……

Liu Che touched his chin in confusion.

After all, the Wu family has a foreign surname, right?

Could it be that the son hasn't kissed his nephew yet?
……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
Li Yuan jumped off the dragon couch and pointed at Aba Aba in the sky.

Li Jiancheng was also surprised and could not contain himself.

Then Li Zhi is really the king of subjugation? !
……

Datang.

Li Shimin looked at Xiao Li Zhi with an evil look.

"boom!"

He smashed the brocade couch angrily, and then took a deep breath.

Li Shimin continued to look at the sky.

I want to see if the Wu girl really gave up the Li family's world to the Wu family!
If she really dares to do this...

There is no need for the Wu family to exist anymore!
"His Majesty……"

At this time, Queen Changsun leaned forward and called softly.

Condensing his anger, Li Shimin looked at the queen searchingly.

Queen Changsun said softly:
"Your Majesty, don't you forget Tang Xuanzong?"

Li Shimin was stunned.

right! There is also a Tang Xuanzong!

In an instant, my angry heart calmed down a lot.

Fortunately, there is still someone who can bring order to the chaos.

……

Tang Dynasty and Gaozong period
Li Zhi stared blankly at the sky.

His mind is very confused now.

Who is Li Xian? Where is Hong'er?

The Wu family replaced the Tang Dynasty? Didn’t the Queen have no contact with the Wu brothers for a long time?
Where are the clan members? Where are my ministers?
No, a son is more important than a nephew, right?
Li Zhi, Li Zhi, please be sensible!
Holding the cuffs tightly with both hands, Li Zhi slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Breathe...breathe..."

Immediately, four big words came to mind.

Death! country! Of! Jun!
...! ! !
Open your eyes violently!

Li Zhi takes action!

How did I come to my senses! ! !
Suddenly, his eyesight turned black.

Li Zhi pressed one hand on the table and the other on his forehead, with a slightly ferocious expression on his face, and said word by word through gritted teeth:

"Let Wu Zhaoyi come to see me!"

"Now! Immediately! Immediately!!"

The palace servants on the side rushed to deliver the order.

……

Tang Xuanzong Period
"Hahahahahaha!"

Li Longji suddenly laughed loudly.

Yang Yuhuan on the side sniffed the peonies and looked at Li Longji doubtfully.

Taking a sip of wine, Li Longji smiled and said:
"This canopy, there is no prelude to this sudden moment."

"I don't know if Gaozong would suddenly be so angry that he died of illness after seeing it. His old man's health is not very good."

"Um……"

Li Longji's fusu thought seriously:

"With the reward of Tianmu, it shouldn't be so easy to get angry, right?"

……

[On the seventh day of December in 683 AD, Wu Zetian conferred the title of Taiwei on Li Yuanjia, the governor of Zezhou and the king of Han. 】

[Li Yuanying, the governor of Yuzhou and the king of Teng, is the third division of Yitong in Kaifu. 】

[Li Lingkui, the governor of Jiangzhou and King of Lu, was appointed as the crown prince and grand master. 】

[Li Zhen, the governor of Xiangzhou and the king of Yue, was appointed as the crown prince and tutor. 】

[Li Shen, the governor of Anzhou and the king of Ji, was the crown prince’s chief protector. 】

[The governor of Zezhou, King Li Yuanjia of Han, and others added three other officials to comfort him. 】

[On the 11th, Liu Rengui was ordered to serve as Minister Zuopushe to stay in Chang'an, Cen Changqian was appointed Minister of War, and Wei Xuantong was appointed Minister of Huangmen, and they were still aware of political affairs. 】

[Liu Qixian was appointed as the Shizhong, and Pei Yan, who was promoted to the Shizhong, was appointed as the Zhongshu Ling. 】

[The political affairs hall was moved from Menxia Province to Zhongshu Province. 】

[On the 17th, Wu Zhao ordered generals Cheng Wuting and Zhang Qianxu to take charge of the left and right Yulin armies and rush to Luoyang. 】

[On the 29th, General Wang Guo of Weiwei on the left, General Linghu Zhitong on the left prison gate, General Yang Xuanjian on the right Jinwu, and General Guo Qizong on the right Qianniu were sent to the four major governor's offices of Bing, Yi, Jing, and Yang to get to know each other. guard. 】

……

On the canopy.

The round-faced emperor roared at his ministers:

"This world belongs to me! What's wrong with ordering the father-in-law to be the servant?"

"What's wrong with giving the whole world to the head of the state? Do you still care about a mere servant?!"

……

[On February 684, AD, Li Xian, Emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty, planned to appoint Wei Xuanzhen, the father of Empress Wei, who was in the Puzhou army of the ninth rank, as the third rank servant, and his wet nurse's son as the fifth rank, but was stopped by Pei Yan, ordered by Zhongshu. 】

[Wu Zetian deposed Li Xian as King of Luling, moved to Fangzhou, and deposed Li Chongzhao, the grandson of the emperor, as a commoner. 】

[The fourth son, Li Dan, King of Yu, was made emperor, which was Ruizong of Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian still came to rule the dynasty. 】

……

{The ninth grade is equivalent to the official rank, and the third grade is equivalent to a high-ranking official. From the first-ranked rank to a high-ranking official all at once, no minister can agree! }

{Not to mention the son of a wet nurse, my dear, this is the reincarnation of Emperor An of the Han Dynasty. You love the wet nurse and her family so much! }

{Is this really Li Zhi’s son and Li Shimin’s grandson? What kind of brain is this? }

{Please be considerate, after all, he was suddenly thrown into this position from a feudal lord who was just eating, drinking and having fun. }
{Not every vassal king is like Emperor Wen and Yongle who can do it right away and can do it well. Most of them are like Huizong of Song Dynasty. }
{Emperor Jingtai is also good, but it’s a pity. }
{Emperor Hanwen and Emperor Yongle: Do you compare Song Huizong to me? shame! This is a shame! }
{Li Hong, what a wonderful prince. The prisoner of the country was righteous and the people were benevolent and righteous. It was a pity that he died of illness. If Li Hong was here, Wu Zetian might not be like this? }
……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Heng's eyes suddenly became clear, and an idea that he had never thought of before, and could even be said to be earth-shattering, came to his mind!
"Appease the clan and reward the generals generously."

"Control the Eastern Capital and guard the four states..."

Dou Yifang on the side also looked solemn and said:

“If you want to take something first, you must give it to yourself first.”

"She really wants to be Empress Lu."

Liu Heng remained silent.

Empress Lu?

Empress Lu loved Emperor Hui very much.

This is not the case with this Empress Wu...

And this process... I am very familiar with it.

"This Zhongzong was too anxious and made mistakes in his haste."

"There is no way, the clan, ministers, and generals have all been arranged by Empress Wu."

"Yes, even the assistant minister has allied with her, and her methods are clever."

"Gaozong... I finally know why he didn't mention his ability to recognize people."

Liu Qi on the side was confused and scratching his head.

"No, Father! Mother!"

"What do you say again? Don't leave me behind?"

The two emperors and empress who were discussing looked at Liu Qi.

Look at the clear stupidity in his eyes.

The two turned around and continued their discussion.

Liu Qi:...!
Am I your son?
……

The late Han Dynasty and the period of Emperor Ling.

"hiss……"

Why does Liu Hong feel that this scene looks so familiar?
"It feels like déjà vu..."

All the ministers of His Highness remained silent.

How fresh, can it not be like deja vu?

Isn't this the way our Yanhan Queen Mother controls the government?

Otherwise, why would she waste her great-grandson and establish a son?

How can the Queen Mother have the convenience of being called the Queen Mother when she comes to court?

...the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin beat his chest.

He is so angry that his chest hurts now!
Move the Political Affairs Hall to Zhongshu Province?

The Zhongshu Province issues an order, the Menxia Province examines it, and the Shangshu Province executes it.

It is because the Menxia Province is the final hurdle before implementation, so the political hall where the prime ministers collectively discuss politics is located in the Menxia Province.

Now, she has changed the political affairs office from Menxia Province to Zhongshu Province, which means that she has further strengthened the power of Zhongshu Province from an institutional perspective!

Whether Pei Yan is the Minister of Gu Ming or the Secretary of the Central Committee, he will be in charge of the prime minister's political affairs.

The original three-phase restraint has become the prime minister invisibly.

After such a long period of time, the Political Affairs Hall has gradually become the prime minister's hall!

All of a sudden, we returned to the one-man prime minister system of the Han Dynasty!
The most important thing is that the provincial supervisor will review and reject the application.

Now that the power of the province has been weakened, from now on...

Li Shimin broke into a cold sweat for a moment.

Is Empress Lu really alive?

……

Tang Dynasty and Gaozong period
His hands drooped weakly, and Li Zhi looked at the sky blankly.

If you don't want to appease the clan, but only care about rewarding foreigners, how can the clan members help you?

If you appoint officials without following the system and act on your own initiative, how will the ministers help you?

He transferred Yu Lin's army to Luoyang to take advantage of the conflict between the prince and his ministers.

"Ah……"

There was a hint of sarcasm on Li Zhi's lips.

I really taught a good apprentice...

It's a pity that Hong'er...my Hong'er!
There was a buzz in his head, and Li Zhi rolled his eyes and fainted decisively.

……

[On the sixth day of September in 684 AD, the Yuanguang residence was changed. 】

[Change Dongdu to Shendu and Shangshu Province to Wenchangtai. 】

[The left and right servants are the left and right ministers, and the six departments of officials, households, rituals, soldiers, punishments, and work are changed to the six departments of heaven, earth, spring, summer, autumn, and winter. 】

[The province of Menxia is called Luantai, and the province of Zhongshu is called Fengge. 】

[The servant in the middle is Nayan, the secretary in the middle is the internal history, the censor's platform is the left suzheng platform, and the right suzheng platform is added. 】

[The names of the rest of the provinces, temples, prisons, and commanders will be changed. 】

[The old uniforms of officials below the eighth rank were changed from blue to blue, and all the flags were changed from gold (actually silver with purple patterns on them)]

[Amnesty to the world, "The System of Seeking Merit"]

[In the same month, seven temples of the Wu family were established, and his ancestor was named king. 】

……

Cao Wei.

"This...this...she, she..."

Sima Zhao stumbled and pointed at the sky, but he couldn't say anything.

Sima Yi stroked his beard and said quietly:

"Oh, Wu Zetian's heart is known to everyone on the road."

……

On the canopy.

Wu Zetian, wearing a gold embroidered skirt, sat high on the throne.

At his feet, pieces of blood-stained white paper were scattered on the ground.

Invariably, there are uniform words on every piece of paper.

"plum"

……

[On August 688, AD, Li Zhen, the son of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the governor of Yuzhou, and the king of Langya, Li Chong, the son of Li Zhen, the governor of Bozhou, rebelled against the dictatorship of Empress Wu. 】

[We raised the army for seven days and were defeated. 】

[Wu Zetian killed a group of Li and Tang kings including Li Yuanjia, Li Lingkui, and others because they had conspired with Yue King Li Zhen and his son, so she killed them all. 】

[In July 690 AD, Wu Chengsi sent Zhou Xing and other cruel officials Luo Zhi to charge Li Shangjin, the son of Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi of Tang Dynasty, with Li Shangjin, the governor of Suizhou, and Li Sujie, the governor of Shuzhou, king Xu. 】

[Li Sujie was strangled to death by someone sent by Wu Zetian with a belt at Longmenyi and her nine sons were killed. 】

[When Li Shangjin heard that Li Sujie had been killed, he was frightened and hanged himself to death. His seven sons died of illness while traveling. 】

[In August, killed Li Ying, king of Nan'an, and twelve members of Li Tang's clan. 】

["The clan of the Tang Dynasty was almost extinct, and the young and weak survivors also fled to Lingnan, and hundreds of their close relatives were killed."]

……

Big man.

Liu Bang looked at Lu Pheasant with strange eyes.

This woman is much crueler than you.

Lu Pheasant said nothing with a dark face.

……

The period of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty
Liu Ying shook her hands and took a sip of wine.

Don’t mention the past again, I really don’t want to remember it.

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che looked at the word "cruel official" and immediately understood why there were no words from ministers.

"What an amazing woman..."

……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
Clutching his heart, Li Yuan turned pale with anger and trembled all over.

Old events from the Northern and Southern Dynasties flooded into his mind.

"I have ordered the Duke to come to see me...come to see me!!!"

"boom!"

Li Jiancheng was surprised and delighted and said:

"Someone comes quickly! Call the doctor quickly!"

……

Datang.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty! Take care of your dragon body!"

"Your Majesty, give the order! I, Old Cheng, will chop that family to death!"

Li Shimin suddenly woke up and felt wet on his face.

As soon as I touched it, I burst into tears.

Looking at the sky, is this a punishment from God?
Li Shimin ignored the ministers and looked depressed.

The hall gradually became quiet.

It's better to leave your Majesty alone.

……

Tang Dynasty and Gaozong period
Li Zhi, who had just been awakened by the imperial doctor's needle, glanced at the sky.

There was a coaxing sound in the head.

He decisively fainted again.

……

Wu Zhou.

Wu Zetian's face was expressionless.

I understood it when Su Liangsi died.

No matter what, he can't escape the reputation of harming a wise minister in vain.

But in all the dynasties, have there been any people who have changed their destiny and not killed people?
Xiang Yu destroyed Qin and killed two hundred thousand people.

Shi Le destroyed the Jin Dynasty and killed all the princes, princes and ministers.

I am a mother who takes over the throne of my son, but in the final analysis I am still a revolutionary and self-reliant.

Compared with those battlefield killings during dynasty changes, it is still light.

Now that you are determined to do it, how can you avoid notoriety? To avoid manslaughter?

As long as there may be hidden dangers, we must get rid of them all...

……

On the canopy.

Zetian Gate of Taichu Palace in Luoyang.

The red sun has just risen, and thousands of golden lights shine on the earth through thin clouds.

Wu Zetian looked at the crowds of people in front of the palace gate with a smile on her face.

A bright red robe covered with splendid coats of arms.

The head full of pearls shines with colorful light in the sun.

The moment I saw her.

Thousands of people in front of Zetian Gate knelt down one after another.

Earth-shaking shouts suddenly sounded.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

……

[On September 690, AD, Wu Zetian announced that the Li family's wife would succeed the Li family's three saints, change the Tang Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty, and change the Yuan Dynasty to Tianshou. 】

[On the twelfth day, with the meaning of the sun and moon shining brightly in the sky for thousands of years, the word Zhao was created and renamed Wu Zhao. 】

[He was honored as the Holy Emperor, with Ruizong Li Dan as his heir, given the surname Wu, and the crown prince as his grandson. 】

[On the 13th, seven temples of the Wu family were built in Luoyang, the sacred capital, in accordance with the emperor's etiquette, in order to]

[At this point, the first female emperor in Chinese history was born. 】

……

 How should I put it? It’s all a power struggle. It’s really hard to find an analysis of the military and internal affairs of the Wu Zhou Dynasty.
