Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian are husband and wife.
1. Tang Gaozong Li Zhi (July 21, 628 - December 27, 683), the word is good, the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the ninth son of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, the mother is the eldest grandson of the Holy Empress Wendeshun, the crown prince Li Chengqian, and the king of Wei Li Tai are the same maternal brothers.
In June of the second year of Zhenguan (628), Li Zhi was born in the main hall of the East Palace. In the fifth year of Zhenguan (631), he was crowned the king of Jin, and the later crown prince Li Chengqian and the second son Li Tai, the king of Wei, were deposed one after another, and he was registered as the crown prince in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan. In the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, Tang Taizong died, and the crown prince Li Zhi ascended the throne for Tang Gaozong.
In the first year of Hongdao (683), Tang Gaozong died in Zhenguan Hall at the age of 56 and was buried in Qianling. The temple name is Gaozong, and the name is the Emperor. In the eighth year of Tenpo (749), he was added as Emperor Daiseng, and in the thirteenth year of Tenpo (754), he was added as Emperor Daisage Dahongtaka.
2. Wu Cao is Wu Zetian, and he is a native of Wenshui (now Wenshui County, Shanxi Province). A statesman from the Tang Dynasty to the Wu Zhou Dynasty, the founding monarch of the Wu Zhou Dynasty (reigned 690-705), and the only orthodox female emperor in Chinese history, the oldest (67 years old) and one of the longest-lived emperors (82 years old).
Wu Zetian is the second daughter of the governor of Jingzhou. At the age of fourteen, he entered the harem and was a talented person of Tang Taizong and was given the name "Wu Mei". Tang Gaozong was crowned Zhaoyi, and in the sixth year of Yonghui (655), he became the empress after the "Abolition of Wang Liwu" incident.
In the first year of the Shangyuan Dynasty (674), he was called "Queen of Heaven", and was called "Two Sages" together with Gaozong, and participated in the government. After the death of Gaozong, as the empress dowager of Tang Zhongzong and Tang Ruizong, he was in charge of the dynasty.
In the first year of Tianzhu (690), Wu Zetian was called the emperor, changed the name of the country to Zhou, set the capital of Luoyang, called "Shendu", and established Wu Zhou. Before and after his reign, he was "discerning and decisive", having more power and strategy, knowing people and being good at their duties, attaching importance to the selection of talents, and creating a system of palace examinations, martial arts examinations and trial officials. He also rewarded farmers and reformed the rule of officials.
At the same time, the Tang Dynasty clan was wantonly killed, and the "cool official politics" arose. Militarily, the four towns of Anxi were recovered and stabilized, and the Later Turks surrendered for a time. In his later years, he gradually became extravagant and arbitrary, and gradually developed maladministration.
-
It doesn't matter at all! It is difficult for anyone to predict that a woman will become an emperor, let alone a talented person of the first emperor? If Tang Gaozong expected it, there would probably be no Wu Zetian in history, only Wu Meiniang!
-
It's love and fear. Gaozong can't do without Wu Zetian, Gaozong is not in good health and needs Wu Zetian to help him deal with political affairs, Wu Zetian has a lot of power, which makes her power highly inflated. For example, Gaozong wanted to abolish Wu Zetian, so he asked Shangguanyi to metabolize and abolish Empress Wu Zetian's edict Wu Zetian, and Wu Zetian knew about it and blamed Gaozong, Gaozong put all the responsibility on Shangguanyi, causing Shangguanyi to be beheaded all over the house.
-
History is artificially recorded, it depends on who writes history! Feelings are hard to say, especially those alienated by power!
-
was not set aside, because Tang Gaozong was a righteous emperor, and he was not the kind of mediocre and incompetent, it was difficult for Wu Zetian to set him up.
-
Yes, Tang Gaozong was very weak at that time, and Wu Zetian had a lot of power, and he could make decisions for Li Zhi at that time.
-
I think he was willing to give up power to Wu Zetian, because he was weak and sick at that time, and he was not suitable for long-term fatigue, so he had to hand over the government to Wu Zetian to take care of.
-
During the reign of Li Zhi, the Tang Dynasty had the largest territory, destroying Goguryeo, pacifying Mobei, breaking the Western Turks, and reopening the imperial examination, it can be said that Wenzhi and martial arts are very powerful, and in the later period, he suppressed the coup d'état launched by Li Yuanjing, Li Ke, Fang Yiai, Princess Gaoyang, Xue Wanche, Chai Lingwu, Princess Baling and others, very decisively, how could such an emperor be afraid of a woman, and there is no need to be afraid of a woman.
There are descriptions of Li Zhi's weak personality, mostly because when Tang Taizong established the crown prince, Li Zhi showed his filial piety and affectionate side, which just shows that his feelings for Wu Zetian are very sincere, otherwise how could Li and Wu have loved each other for more than 40 years. And Wu Zetian has a tough personality, which can be seen from the story of Taizong who ordered him to train horses. But history is not a story, and inferences should be made based on facts.
Li Zhi should love Wu Zetian very much, otherwise it would be impossible to risk the abolition of the crown prince and have an affair with Wu Zetian, and take Wu Zetian from Ganye Temple into the palace, and seal it, if a cowardly emperor will definitely not and dare not do such a thing. It should be said that Wu Zetian is afraid of him, otherwise Wu Zetian's usurpation of power and seizure of power would not have been launched after his big trip. So this statement is wrong.

Tang Gaozong loves Wu Zetian But he loves the country more He is afraid that the ancestral inheritance will fall into his hands At that time, there were many rumors among the people And Wu Zetian was very capable So he loved and feared her Read more history books After all, a TV series is a TV series Adaptation of history for artistic effect The changes in the new version are even greater There are basically not too many things to follow history.
If you want to know the real answer, it is recommended that you read more official histories, such as the old and new Tang books! If you don't want to watch such a true history, I recommend you to watch a TV series like "The Rule of Zhenguan" that has real historiographical value and respects history, and you can feel something from it! Then you can also take a look at the Hundred Lecture Hall!
In recent years, in order to make profits, businesses have proliferated harem TV dramas, and there is basically no historical value, 100% apocryphal, scribbling and crooked, and its extremely disrespectful behavior of history has also been criticized by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television!
I can also say something about my own opinion, if Tang Gaozong has no problem with his brain, even if he loves Wu Zetian more than he loves his son, combined with China's thousands of years of historical ethics (by the time of Tang Gaozong, Chinese culture has also gone through more than a thousand years of history), it is impossible for him to pass the throne to a woman! It's not discriminatory against women here! After thousands of years of change, in this year's tolerant and open society, the status of women has long been the same as that of men!
However, please keep in mind that Chinese culture, broad and profound, has a long history, experienced matrilineal and patrilineal society until the Yan and Huang Dynasty, ancient Chinese society by women as emperors, not only Wu Zetian, or with such a cruel person Duan usurped the position! Putting aside her merits and demerits for the time being, let's just say that this behavior is absolutely unacceptable to people, especially the people of that era, and even more so those who read!
It can be said that the status of women today is almost the same as that of men in many aspects, but there are still differences in some aspects, everyone acquiesces to this, no one says it, no one mentions it, everyone understands it in their hearts! Looking at the world, in today's world, there are only a few countries led by women, this is an indisputable fact! And this fact will last forever in China!
Therefore, Tang Gaozong is an emperor, and if it weren't for his poor health, Tang Gaozong would still be an emperor with some political achievements, and he can't be regarded as a faint monarch, so it is impossible for him to set up a woman as an emperor!
The 94-year-old "Wu Zetian" still respects history to a certain extent, and it is much better than the current "The Secret History of Wu Zetian". It's just that Tang Gaozong was willing to listen to Wu Zetian's opinion on everything at first, but when he was dying, he was in charge alone, and when Wu Zetian hated him so much that he didn't want to see him, he was very sad. What a contradiction.

First of all, let's analyze Gaozong himself, Gaozong himself is a good ......has a generous personality and is a little cowardly, and Wu Zetian is a talented person of Tang Taizong, after the death of Tang Taizong, Wu Zetian was sent to the temple as a nun, so Gaozong has always felt a little ......guilty about Wu ZetianAnd Gaozong loves Wu Zetian very much, Gaozong has a total of eight sons and four daughters, half of which are born by Wu Zetian (four sons and two daughters......I love her so much and feel a little guilty......Naturally, he tolerated Wu Zetian in every way, and it took a long time ......Tracheitis is cultured ......
Speaking of Wu Zetian, her own factors also account for a large part ......Wu Zetian was originally a beautiful girl, smart and strong, and good at power, such a strong woman met the good old man Li Zhi......The results speak for themselves......
