Wu Zetian (624-705), a native of Wenshui, Bingzhou, was the daughter of Shangshu, Li Zhi and Empress Huo of the Ministry of Industry in the early Tang Dynasty, and a female politician in the Tang Dynasty. Smart sex, multiple forces. In 637 (the 11th year of Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan reign), Wu was called into the palace for her beauty, and was awarded the title of Wu Mei, the year 14. In 649, Emperor Taizong died, and he entered Ganye Temple to become a nun. At that time, the queen was competing for favor with her, and she decided to use Wu Mei's beauty to transfer the emperor's favor to Xiao. So he ordered Wu Shi to keep his hair secret and dedicate it to Emperor Gaozong, and named it Chen Fei. The following year, Li Hong, the eldest son, was promoted to Zhao Yi. Wu Shi entered the palace again, thanked the queen and began to grovel and flatter her. Knowing that there was a contradiction between the queen and her, she joined forces with the queen to deprive the emperor of Xiao's love. When Xiao fell out of favor, she thought that if she wanted to be the master of the sixth house, she had to defeat the queen. In 654, Wu gave birth to a daughter, who was deeply loved. One day, Queen Wang was so bored that she went to the Showa Hall to play with the little princess, and then she left. Wu deliberately avoided when the queen came, left with the queen, killed the little princess, and blamed the queen. In 655, Wang was falsely killed by the little princess, abolished his post and made Wu the queen. Since then, three sons and a daughter have been born: Li Xian (Prince Zhang Huai), Li Xianzong, Li Dan (Zong Rui) and Princess Taiping. It can be seen that its status as a pet. After Wu Zili became the queen, he began to participate in political affairs, and he was called "two saints". In 683, Emperor Gaozong died, and Li Xian succeeded to the throne as Zhongzong, and Zunwu was the empress dowager, who was called the royal family. The following year, Li Xian was abolished as the king of Luling, Li Dan was appointed, and Wu Zetian took the real power. In 690, Li Dan was abolished as Emperor Zetian, and the country name was changed to Zhou, which was called "Wu Zhou" in history. After Wu Zetian proclaimed himself emperor, he opened the imperial examination, made an exception and called for the collapse, which made him loose and forced him to be in danger. Allow trainability. She was in charge of the state affairs for nearly half a century, and her social stability and economic development laid the foundation for the later "Kaiyuan Shi Sheng". However, Wu Zetian persecuted Queen Xiao Fei, killed her parents and children, conferred the title of King Wu, attached importance to cruel officials, severely punished the law, and suffered numerous unjust imprisonment, which was condemned by history. In 705, Prime Minister Zhang Jianzhi took advantage of Wu Zetian's old age and critical illness, supported the restoration of Zhongzong, and respected Wu Shi as the "Great Sage Emperor". In the winter of the same year, Wu Shi died at the age of 82, and the testament "played the emperor and called him the Great Sage Queen." Li Bai listed Wu Zetian as one of the "Seven Saints" in the Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian, a name with historical charm, is a legendary historical figure rather than a legend. She is the second daughter of Wu Shihuo, the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, the young princess of Li Shimin of Emperor Taizong, and the queen Tang Gaozong of Li Zhi. She assisted Emperor Gaozong in handling military affairs. After managing state affairs for 30 years, she ascended the throne and claimed to be the emperor of the Holy Spirit. She abolished Tang and changed her name to Zhou, becoming the only queen in the history of China. From her participation in the political affairs, claiming to be the emperor, to her serious illness and moving to Yang Palace, she was in power for nearly half a century, inheriting the "Zhenguan rule" and opening up the "Kaiyuan Shi Sheng", whose historical achievements are well known to the world. As Soong Ching Ling sincerely commented on her, Wu Zetian was "an outstanding female politician in feudal times".
