In the first year of Yonglong (680), Wu Zetian abolished the Prince's constitution and sent him to the capital for imprisonment. Li Xian was appointed Crown Prince. Then Naville's family became a crown princess. In December of the first year of Hongdao (683), Emperor Gaozong died, and Pei Yan was supported by the testamentary edict. The prince acceded to the throne as the loyal emperor. Wuhou was honored as the empress dowager, and Wuhou was appointed as the empress dowager. On the first day of the first month of the following year, he changed his life, made the crown princess Wei as the queen, and promoted the queen's father to join the army. Wei was the secretariat of Yuzhou. Zhong wants to take Wei as a supplement, and (when the door was the governor and Pei Yan was the secretary-general), the son of the lactating mother was appointed as the five-grade officer. Pei Yan fought hard and thought it was impossible. Zhongzong was angry and said, "I don't care about the world and Wei Zhen Xuan, I care about serving Zhongzong!" Pei Yanming, playing the marquis of Wu, conspired to abolish Li. On the sixth day of February, Wuhou gathered hundreds of officials in Gan Yuan Temple. Pei Yan and General Cheng Wuting of Yu Lin led the Forbidden Palace, and after declaring martial law, they ordered the abolition of Zhongzong as the king of Luling and helped the temple. Zhongzong asked, "What crime have I committed?" Wu Hou said, "If you want to treat Wei with the world, how can you be innocent?" Confined to the palace. Wei Houtong was demoted, and Zhongzong ascended the throne less than two months ago, which was such a sudden change. In April of the same year, accompanied by Webster, King Luling moved to Zhoufang (now Fangxian County, Hubei Province). During Zhou Fang's exile, Wu Zetian sent envoys to visit him many times. Zhongzong is afraid of insecurity. Every time he hears this, he is often afraid of suicide. Wei Hou often warned that wealth is impermanent, so you can't lose your life. How did this happen? Zhongzong's worries and fears can be resolved. The two of them were locked together, prepared for hardship and danger, and loved each other deeply. Zhongzong often swore with Wei Hou privately: "Fortunately, it is different, I will see the light of day again, and I will do whatever you want, and I will not forbid it."
Fourteen years later, in the first year of Zhou Shengli (698), at the suggestion of court officials such as Di, Wu Zetian finally made up her mind not to pass on her nephew, but to summon King Luling to return to the East. On the pretext that King Luling was ill, he sent Xu Yanbo to call King Luling, his concubines and other scholars to the east for treatment. On the ninth day of March, Wang arrived in Luling. The imperial heir () asked Xun to be located in Luling King. In September of that year, Wu Zetian made King Luling the Crown Prince and re-established Webster as the Crown Princess. Make the heir king. Following the order, the prince was appointed as the marshal of Hebei Road March, and Di was appointed as the deputy marshal of March, and sent troops to crusade against the Turks. First, the conscription lasted for more than a month, and the number of applicants was less than 1000. As soon as I heard that the prince was a marshal, the number of applicants gathered, not enough for 50 thousand. In addition, Yangzhou, Xu Jingye, Bozhou, Li Chong, the evil king of secretariat, and Lizhen, the king of secretariat of Yuzhou, all took "rehabilitating King Luling" and "welcoming Zhongzong" as political slogans, which shows that the restoration of Li Tang is expected. Although Wu Zetian decided to carry on the family line, she didn't want to hurt the interests of Wu Shi Group, for fear that the prince behind her was incompatible with all martial arts. She "swore to the Prince, Wang Xiang (Zong Rui), Princess Taiping, and Wu Jiyou (nephew of Wu Zetian, Princess Taiping married Xue Shao before marrying Wu), told heaven and earth in the hall, and wrote an inscription in the history museum".
In the first month of the first year of Shenlong (705), Wu Zetian was forced to be transferred to the Crown Prince, and Zhongzong acceded to the throne to restore the title of the Tang Dynasty. In February, Wei, the crown princess, was made queen, and Wei, the father of the queen, was posthumously awarded as the king of Shangluo. Minister Shang Shu believes that it is a common system since ancient times that different surnames do not confer titles on kings. The first dynasty gave the queen a father who was the king of Taiyuan (referring to the father warrior dipping in the king after Emperor Gaozong sealed Wu Zetian), which should be taken as a warning, but Zhongzong did not listen.
Webster's re-establishment as queen means that relying on the private oath of Zhongzong, "only desire is not forbidden", he began to intervene in state affairs, such as the emperor of the world. Huan said, "Every time your majesty comes to the palace, the queen will draw the curtain and sit in the temple to preview political affairs. Stealing the view of emperors since ancient times, and those who have not been in politics with women will die without breaking the country. " Zhongzong didn't listen.
In the coup supporting the restoration, five ministers, including Zhang Jian and Gu Jing, killed two Zhang and his henchmen. It was pointed out that unless Wu Sansi would eventually lead to great disaster, Zhang Jianzhi and others thought that the big event had been decided and they didn't want to make a fuss, so they didn't adopt this suggestion. Therefore, when Wu Zetian abdicated, the power of Wu Shi Group did not weaken. Five ministers took charge of state affairs after their achievements, but Wu Sansi plotted a plan to protect himself for fear of being unfavorable to himself. Wei Ruyun's youngest daughter, Princess Anle, was favored by Zhongzong. Princess Anle was adapted into Wu Chongxun, the son of Wu Sansi, which further consolidated Wu Sansi's position. Shangguan Waner was in charge of documents for Wu Zetian. After the restoration of Zhongzong, he gained more trust and asked the presiding officer to write the imperial edict. He worshipped Zhao Rong as a teacher, used his position as a mediator, contacted Wu Sansi's old party, Yu Wushi, and recommended him to think twice before Wei Hou, then introduced him to the palace, and had a relationship with Wei Hou. Zhongzong then discussed the affairs with San Simou. Fortunately, Emperor Wu Sansi regained power. Strong countries such as Cambodia advised Zhongzong to do his best in martial arts, but Zhongzong did not listen. Cambodia and others sighed and said, "I won't punish the soldiers, I will punish them from above with Zhang Zhili." On the contrary, the situation has passed and I know what to do! "Soon, Zhongzong named Wu Sansi as a common scholar, and with the doctrine of the book, Wu Sansi was able to occupy the position and master the power of state affairs.
In May of that year, sixteen people, including Zhang Jianzhi, Wu Sansi and Wu, were given iron coupons, and each was spared ten deaths. Jing Hui and others led the officials to the table, so please surrender the warlord Wu, so as to secure both inside and outside. Zhongzong forbid it. Wu Sansi and Wei Hou slandered day and night in front of Zhongzong, producer Andy and Jing Hui. "Relying on the power of work will be bad for the country." If you don't make Hui king, stop its political affairs without losing respect for the hero. The right to gain from the inside. "Zhong Zongxin was wrong, which made the five kings, such as Zhang Jianzhi and Jinghui, stop political affairs and give them gold silks and pommel horses. It's natural that Wu Sanshi ordered the officials to be rebuilt. Those who did not belong to Wu Shi were expelled, and those who were expelled by the five kings were reinstated, and all the power belonged to Wu San Si.
Shangguan Waner advised Wei Hou to attack the story of that day. Please change the people's age to 2 1%, 60 to 23%, and 59 is exempt from military service. Please ask the world to mourn for the biological mother who was abandoned by her father for three years. Change the system to win people's hearts. Wei Hou imitated Wu Zetian and tried to usurp the throne. To this end, he cultivated private forces and reused his relatives to form the Webster Group.
In the first month of the second year of Shenlong (706), seven princesses, including Taiping, Changning, Anle, Yicheng, Xindu, Ding 'an and Jincheng, all set up official offices and set up officials. (Princess Taiping is the daughter of Wu Zetian, and all those below Changning are the daughters of Zhongzong) Princess Anle is arrogant and arrogant in the ruling and opposition circles. She also made a letter out of grass, covered the words and asked Zhongzong to sign it. Zhong Zongjing didn't read the letter and smiled. He also asked Zhongzong to abolish the Crown Prince and let her be the wife of the emperor. Although Zhongzong did not obey, he did not condemn her. Princess Anle, Shangguan Waner, etc. It took 300,000 yuan to sell the official title by relying on power, so the official was removed without ink (not according to the procedure, but the emperor issued a letter directly, without the consideration of the prime minister and the seal of the Chinese book, that is, the official title was worshipped), and the oblique seal was handed over to the Chinese book for execution. People call it "oblique sealing officer" At that time, thousands of officials were awarded in the names of "serving as an official", "serving as an official", "trying an official", "taking photos", "examining an official" and "knowing an official". Princess Anle is extremely extravagant, and the government intends to spend it in the palace. I asked Zhongzong to give Kunming pool, and it was not allowed. But take the land from the people and make it into Kunming pool. Within a few miles of Fiona Fang, the stone head looks like Huashan, and the water diversion looks like Tianhe. In order to win Kunming, I named it Dingkun. Princess Anle has a woven skirt, which is worth millions. Flowers, birds and animals are all like millet. Look directly at it, they are the same in the sun and in the shadow. Zhongzong, Wei Hou and Princess set up more Buddhist temples to "exhaust people's strength, waste people's wealth, seize people's homes, love counting children and take three grievances".
At that time, North Korea formed the Wuwei dictatorship headed by Wei Hou. Wusansi avoided the five kings of the capital and first published it as a foreign book secretariat. After the false accusation, they conspired with Wu Sansi and Wei, all of whom were demoted as Sima of Yuanzhou. Wu Sansi secretly sent someone to write a book about Wei Hou's lewd behavior and posted it in Tianjin Bridge (now Luoyang West, Henan Province). Please testify under oath. Zhongzong was furious, and Wu Sansi falsely accused the five kings of making people do it, calling it Hou Fei, which was actually a rebellion, so he demanded the destruction of the three clans. Princess Anle and her henchmen were slandered inside and outside. Zhongzong gave the five kings iron coupons to ensure that they would not die, so they were sent to evil places, and more than 16 of their children were sent to Lingnan. Wu Sansi sent messengers to kill him. Bilai, Zhang Jianzhi and Cui Xuantuo died, and the other three were killed. Since Wusansi killed five kings, the ruling and opposition parties have turned against each other. As the saying goes, "I don't know who is good and who is evil." But what is good for me is a good person, and what is bad for me is a wicked person. " In the imperial history, Cheng Zhouyong, Shi Zhong Imperial History, Ran, a teacher Li Chengjun, Guang Luqing Song Zhixun, Jian Jun Imperial History and Yao Shaozhi are collectively called five dogs.
In "Antique", the sects of the sects sentenced those who exposed the ugly behavior of Wuwei to death, which increased their momentum.
Empress Wei, Princess Anle, Wu Sansi, etc. Autocracy and arrogance aggravate the contradictions within the ruling group. In the first year of Jinglong (707), Prince Li Zhongjun rose up. Not born after Wei, but hated by Wei. Wu Sansi is particularly afraid of the prince; Princess Anle and Wu Xuchongxun often insult the prince and call him a slave. Wu Chongxun instigated Princess Anle to ask Zhongzong to abolish the prince and make her his wife. Because of Wu Sansi, Shangguan Waner promoted Wu Shi every time he drafted the system. On July 6, together with Zuo Yulin's generals Li Duozuo, Li Sichong, Li Chengkuang, Du Gu's taboo Wei and loyalty. , in the correction of more than 300 people, suddenly attacked the military, killing Wu Sansi, Wu Chongxun and their pro-party 10 people. The king of Tianshui and his troops were divided to guard the gate of Miyagi, and the prince and Li Duozuo led the troops to Miyagi to find Wan Er. Guan Waner said, "Look at their intentions first, then at the queen, and then at everyone (the emperor called everyone in the palace)." Zhongzong, Wei Hou, Princess Anle, and Shangguan Waner boarded the Xuanwu Gate to avoid enemy attacks, so that more than 2,000 people, including General You Yulin and the Ministry of War Shangshu Zongchuke, camped under the Xuanwu Gate and in front of the Taiji Hall, while Li Duozuo and the Prince went downstairs to the Xuanwu Gate, holding horses without fighting. Relying on the threshold, Zhongzong said, "If you can defeat the rebels, you won't worry about having no money." So the guards beheaded Duo You and Li Chengkuang, and the rest scattered. Li, who attacked the right Yanmingmen in Tianshui, died. The prince was killed by a hundred riders and left Zhong Nanshan. The coup failed.
Wei Hou and Princess Anle planned to attack Wang Xianghe and Princess Taiping by coup, thus removing the main obstacle to Wei Hou's ambition to become emperor. Princess Anle and the minister of war, Shang Zongchu, can lie day and night, making suggestions that Ran Zuyong falsely played and Princess Taiping colluded with the prince. Zhongzong ordered the assistant minister of the official department and Yu Shicheng to investigate the case. Xiao Zhizhong said earnestly, "Your majesty is rich all over the world, and there is no room for a younger brother and a younger sister. Will it harm Luo Zhi? Wang Xiang used to be the heir to the throne, so he asked in heaven and let your majesty know the world ... why not doubt it with Zu Yong's words! " Under the unanimous dissuasion of Jason Wu and other ministers, the matter was stopped.
In the third year of Jinglong (709), he sacrificed heaven and earth in the southern suburbs, and sacrificed to Asia after Wei, repeating the story that Wu Zetian was the first Zen society to sacrifice to Asia. Li Tang's royal family once again faces threats from future generations.
The perverse actions of the Wei Party caused dissatisfaction among the ruling and opposition parties, and people constantly exposed them. Cui Wan, the imperial adviser, cited Zong Chuke and others for infiltrating Emperor Rong, being bribed by him and causing trouble. Zhongzong ordered Cui Wan to make peace with Zongchuke as brothers. At that time, people called it "the son of heaven". Dingzhou people wrote a letter saying that Wei Hou and Zongchuke were going to rebel, and Wei Hou was killed in front of Zhongzong's stick.
In May of the fourth year of Jinglong (7 10), Xu Bing joined the army, and Yan Qinrong wrote that she was promiscuous and interfered in the state affairs, and Princess Anle and Zongchu could attempt to harm the Zongshe. Zhongzong summoned heckling, Qin Rong nodded stiffly, his look unchanged, and Zhongzong was silent. Zong Chuke ordered the imperial army to cull it, throw it on the stone in the palace, and break its neck and die. Zhongzong was unhappy, and Wei Hou and his followers began to worry.
Hou Wei wants to imitate her mother-in-law Wu Zetian and dreams of becoming a female emperor. Princess Anle wants Wei Houlin to be the wife of the emperor; Ma Qinke, who often rode horses, learned medical skills. Guanglu Shao Qing and Yang Jun often go in and out of the harem because they are good at cooking. Fortunately for Hou Wei, they conspired to poison the cake for fear of punishment. On the second day of June, Zhongzong died in Shenlong Hall at the age of 55.
Princess Taiping and Shangguan Waner drew up the legacy system of Zhongzong and made Wang Chongmao the Crown Prince. The queen knows politics, and Wang Dan remonstrates politics. Princess Taiping and Shangguan Waner wanted to limit Wei Hou's power by "advising Wang Dan". Wei Houmi did not send out an obituary, and transferred fifty thousand government troops to Beijing, under the command of Wei Jie, Wei Guan, Wei Lu, Wei Yong and Weber respectively, to control the capital. Wei Yuan, the head of Zhongshu, inspected six streets. The prime minister was called to discuss the revision of the system of Zhong Zong's legacy. At the beginning of Zong Division, the prime minister invited the queen to meet with the court, so he deleted the system of legacy, cut Wang Fuzheng, and then proclaimed himself emperor.
On the fourth day of June, one hundred officials were sent to mourn, and Wei Hou came to the court for regency. On the seventh day, the Crown Prince ascended the throne, known as Shaodi in history. General Wei Wen knew all about the internal and external defense and arrest of the military forces, and the important departments of the North and South Guards and Taige were controlled by Wei's children and cronies. Zong Chuke, (Wu Chongxun was killed, Princess Anle remarried) and other Wei * * * advised to follow the example of Wu Zetian and proclaimed himself emperor after the death of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Zong Chuke conspired with Wei Wen and Princess Anle to get rid of Wang Xianghe and Princess Taiping, eliminate the anti-Wei forces, and clear the way for Wei Hou to proclaim himself emperor. The struggle is becoming more and more fierce.
Li Longji, the king of Linzi (later Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty), as a prince, recruited talents, forged imperial heroes, accumulated strength, and fought against Wei Hou's usurpation of power, which was supported by Princess Taiping. Cui, assistant minister of the Ministry of War of Wei Hou Group, knew that Zong Chuke and others were plotting to observe the situation of the imperial court struggle and were afraid of doing harm to themselves. He sent a monk, Pu Shan, to inform Longji and persuade him to act quickly. "If you are caught off guard, if you delay less, you will be afraid of change." Longjinai conspired with Princess Taiping, Princess Xue Chonglai and Zhong Shaojing, the manager of Banwan, to strike first. On the evening of June 20, the Chinese banned Bandung Ji, and took the director Zhong Shaojing as the government office of the coup headquarters. That night, the imperial heroes Ge Fushun and Li Xianxuan were ordered by Longji to stay at Yulin Camp in Xuanwumen, beheading Wei Lu, Weber and Gao Song, who were in charge of Yulin Army, and announced to the soldiers: "Killing the first emperor is a danger to the country. Tonight, he will punish all Wei, and all the whips above will be beheaded; Establish a king to protect the world. Dare to help the rebels at both ends, the sin of the three families. " Began to provoke Weber and so on, and even willingly obeyed. Xuanwu gate and Yu are under control. Ge Fushun and Li Xi 'an's government divided their forces to attack Xuande Gate and Baishou Gate, killed the gatekeeper and beat drums three times. The two armies met in front of Lingyan Pavilion. Directors Long Jishuai and Yu also entered, and Taijitang's Suwei uterine guards all responded with armor. Wei Hou fled into Qi Fei camp in panic, and Qi Fei beheaded his head and presented it to Longji. Princess Anle looked in the mirror and thrush, and was beheaded. Wu Yanxiu was beheaded in Zhang Suzhou City. Shangguan Waner led the imperial secretary to greet Longji with candles, and presented the Draft of the Legacy System of Zhongzong, which read "Wang Dan Zhang Zheng", proving that she had supported Wang Xiang. Longji was unmoved and ordered to cut it under its banner. However, Wan'er's poems were compiled into a collection of 20 volumes, which was handed down from generation to generation. After Zhu Wei and Wei were arrested, all his cronies cut off contact. Both inside and outside the dawn. Longji committed the crime of not reporting to Xie Wang first. Wang Xiang hugged Longji and cried bitterly, saying, "You can do it even if the ancestral temple of Sheji doesn't fall to the ground." Then, he welcomed Wang Xiang into the palace and assisted Shaodi. Then close the city gate and dispatch the imperial army to search for pro-Wei parties. Wei Wen and Zongchuk were both killed.
On June 23rd, Princess Taiping gave way to the Prime Minister. On 24th, Wang Xiang acceded to the throne for Zongrui. Regard Shaodi as the king of literature.
