Is Li Zhi really weak in history?

Li Zhi was not weak, and Li Zhi also quelled many rebellions during his reign. It was only because Li Zhi favored Wu Zetian too much that Wu Zetian succeeded in usurping the throne later.

Li Zhi in history is not weak and incompetent, but just a little unhealthy. It's just that he is particularly weak between Li Shimin and Wu Zetian.

It's not that he's really weak, but he relies too much on Wu Zetian, resulting in his lack of dominance, so he will be replaced by Wu Zetian.

I don't think so, he's not all weak, he still has strong places, and the tough places are also very tough, very means.

He's not stupid, he sees the situation very clearly, and he often comes up with some good ideas, but he doesn't have real power.

Tang Gaozong Li Zhi, the word is good, is the ninth son of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and was brought up by Tang Taizong since childhood, was canonized as the crown prince in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan (643), Zhenguan twenty-three years (that is, 649) ascended the throne, and created the rule of Yonghui with the legacy of Zhenguan. It stands to reason that this emperor should still be a very capable person, but, strangely, the evaluation of him in history is not very high, on the contrary, it is very low.

The world's views on Tang Gaozong Li Zhi are mostly kind, benevolent, upright, cowardly, etc., thinking that he is a man who can't even keep his throne, and he also makes his wife a generation of empresses, typical rake ears. However, what you don't know about Tang Gaozong is actually like this.

Tang Gaozong Li Zhi was not in good health, he was not weak and incompetent, because his health was not good, he handed over political affairs to the talented Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian was also doing his best for the country at this time, and did not have women like Daji and Bao Xi, but worked hard and did a lot of things that were beneficial to the Li Tang Dynasty. Tang Gaozong was able to have the last laugh in the struggle between the sons of Taizong during the Taizong period, in addition to the protection of the eldest grandson Wuji and others, he still had scheming, and Taoguang was still scheming.

During the early period of his reign, the territory of the Tang Dynasty was the largest. At the end of the reign of Zhenguan of Tang Taizong, there have been many unfavorable situations, and he was able to turn the tide, not only solving the remaining problems of the rule of Zhenguan, but also creating the "rule of Yonghui". When Tang Gaozong ascended the throne, a peasant uprising broke out in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Gaozong had not officially ascended the throne, so he issued the "Battle of Liaodong and the Merit of Civil Engineering", in addition, Tang Gaozong also knew how to make good use of people, and he unearthed a large number of talents, such as:

Xin Maojiang, Lu Chengqing, Xu Yushi, Du Zhenglun, Xue Yuanchao, Wei Siqian, Dai Zhi, Zhang Wenjun, Wei Yuanzhong and others. These people later became the backbone of his political path. It can be seen that he still has the ability to rule the world.

A king, to manage the country well, how can it all depend on one person, so he has the vision to discover talents, which is an extremely important condition for the emperor.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, the territory stretched from the Korean Peninsula in the east, the Aral Sea (Caspian Sea) in the west, Lake Baikal in the north, and Hengshan in Vietnam in the south, which maximized the expansion of the historical territory of the Tang Dynasty and maintained it for 32 years.

Not really. It's not that he was controlled by Wu Zetian, it's because he didn't want to be the emperor in the first place. He was forced to be. So there's not a lot of motivation.

I don't think it's a weak emperor, he must be able to become an emperor because of his superiority; I don't think he was controlled by Wu Zetian, and he chose to gradually withdraw from the cottage because of illness, but in fact, his ability is very strong, and he also voluntarily delegated power to Wu Zetian.

Of course not. Li Zhi was not controlled by Wu Zetian, he loved Wu Zetian very much, so he was willing to serve the world.
