Chapter 70: The Achievements and Faults of Emperor Taizong of Tang (2)

"Goguryeo was actually destroyed by Zhier? Not bad, Zhier did a great job," Emperor Taizong of Tang was happy. He had not been able to conquer Goguryeo in his later years, so it was indeed a bit difficult to destroy it. However, his son destroyed it, which really made him happy.

Although this son has not been born yet, he is his biological son after all, and he is still very happy.

“Yes, Emperor Gaozong of Tang is an underestimated emperor. In the former there is Your Majesty Taizong, and in the latter there is an empress. Emperor Gaozong of Tang is sandwiched in the middle, and indeed no one pays attention to him,” Li Wu said with a smile, emphasizing the word empress.

Emperor Taizong of Tang looked at her in confusion, "Empress? Could it be that my Tang Dynasty will perish when Zhier comes?"

Otherwise, how could a female emperor appear???

Barrage

Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng: Female emperor? I saw her name on the sky screen several times, but I didn't expect she was from the Tang Dynasty.

Emperor Gaozong of Tang Li Zhi: Female emperor? Who is it? Could it be...

The first empress, Lu Zhi: What, there is also an empress? I didn’t even notice it.

She really didn't notice the existence of the empress, mainly because the comments were scrolling too fast and she couldn't keep up, her eyes were almost dizzy.

Empress Wu Zetian: Yes, it is me!

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi: Is that you, Mei Niang?

Empress Wu Zetian: Your Majesty...

other people:! ! !

The people in front of Emperor Gaozong of Tang all had a look of shock. What was going on? This empress called Emperor Gaozong "Your Majesty". Could she be his concubine?

A concubine became an emperor! Oh my god, in their dynasty there were also empress dowagers who controlled the government, but there was really no woman who ascended the throne.

How did those ministers agree to it?

The barrage has gone crazy.

During the reign of Wu Zetian, when Wu Zetian saw the barrage of comments from Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, she knew that the other party had guessed that it was her.

Alas, until now, she doesn’t know how to face His Majesty, but she does not regret it, and has never regretted becoming emperor!

"Well, no, the next part is about the Tang Dynasty," Li Wu said, "Skip this topic, skip it, and continue to talk about your achievements, Your Majesty Taizong."

She was going to save this for later. Now that she had said it all, what would she say next? Besides, Emperor Taizong of Tang suffered too many blows in that day. If he really knew that his own son had cheated on him and that his Tang dynasty had been taken away by a woman, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood, right?

Although Emperor Taizong of Tang was puzzled as to why Li Wu skipped this topic, he did not continue to ask. It was obvious that the little immortal did not want to say more.

Maybe he wants to wait until Zhier or the empress comes before telling him.

But he was really curious about who the empress was and why Zhier was so useless. The immortal even praised him for doing a good job. How could he have done a good job if he couldn't even keep the country?

"Fourth, in terms of economy, Your Majesty Taizong adopted the equal-field system and the rent-labor system. In order to reduce the burden on the people, you avoided extravagance and lived a simple life, abolished the phenomenon of too many officials and too few people, reduced the taxes and labor service of the peasants, and ordered the collection of books from all over the country. The collection is not only large in quantity, but also high in quality, which protects the inheritance of Chinese culture.

Fifth, improve the system and reform the three provinces and six ministries system.

Your Majesty Taizong, your policy in governing the country is to ensure the safety of the people, value talents, and strengthen politics. You have achieved your ambitions through this series of systems and policies. I have already talked about your contributions. Of course, there are many more that I have not mentioned," Li Wu said.

Emperor Taizong of Tang nodded and listened to her carefully. These were all things he needed to know.

"Now that we have talked about the merits, let's talk about the faults."

Emperor Taizong of Tang sat upright, and his ministers also paid great attention during his reign, with no one daring to be distracted.

"First, it was a waste of money and manpower. When Your Majesty Taizong was in power, you built many palaces, such as the palace that was built in the tenth year of Zhenguan, and the Cuiwei Palace and Yuhua Palace that were built later. Many emperors did this, as I have said before. Therefore, it consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources, resulting in public and private labor and hardship for the people.

The second is the very controversial event, which I mentioned earlier, the Xuanwu Gate Incident. I think your Majesty Taizong knows about it, so I won’t say more about it. Although Li Wu personally believes that Emperor Taizong of Tang did nothing wrong in the Xuanwu Gate Incident, some people think that this is a stain on Emperor Taizong of Tang, and that shooting his brothers was too cruel.

In short, everyone has their own opinions and insights.

Emperor Taizong of Tang smiled bitterly, knowing what Li Wu meant. Although the immortal also said that what he did was right, other people did not think so. In short, he was used to it.

Even if it happens again, he will still make the same choice.

"Third, the issue of the harem is that Your Majesty Taizong married your brother's wife. This behavior is also regarded as a stain on you. Moreover, the most important thing is that after the Tang Dynasty, because you set a precedent, other people married stepmothers and daughters-in-law, and some said that they learned it from you. This is really not good," Li Wu couldn't help covering her face. The ancients really knew how to play. She couldn't accept any of them. Maybe she was more feudal.

Emperor Taizong of Tang's complexion changed from red to black and then to white, more changeable than a color palette.

Marry stepmother?

Marry a daughter-in-law?

This was a critical blow to Emperor Taizong of Tang. Was it because he set a bad precedent that the Tang Dynasty became so absurd later?

During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, everyone's faces turned as green as a palette when they heard Li Wu's words, especially when they saw the barrage, their faces turned even greener.

Barrage

Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng: Wait, what did the immortal just say? The Tang Dynasty is quite, quite complicated.

Cao Cao, who loves married women: This, you are more playful than Cao, right? Marrying a stepmother, marrying a daughter-in-law, this, this, I have never done that.

Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di: @Emperor Gaozong of Tang Li Zhi @Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Li Longji @Empress Wu Zetian are talking about you, shouldn’t you come out and say a few words?

Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi: @Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, get out of here!!!

Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty: Hahahaha…

Emperor Gaozu of Han: I found a problem. The empress should be the concubine of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, right? Then why did Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty choose them? Could it be that? Look what I found!!!

Xiang Yu, the King of Western Chu: What? I don’t understand!

Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang: Xiang Yu?

Many people have guessed the barrage. People during the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang were furious when they saw the barrage.

"There is also superstition about immortals. Your Majesty Taizong, you once laughed at Zheng Ge and Emperor Wu of Han for taking elixirs, saying that you would never follow them in the future. Well, later, you took the elixir, and maybe the pain was too unbearable. You really can't take the elixir," Li Wu said solemnly again.

Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of Han, and Emperor Taizong of Tang, these three people are top figures in history, and they all liked to take elixirs. Emperor Taizong of Tang was better, but Emperor Wu of Han and Qin Shihuang were deceived badly, especially Emperor Wu of Han, who even married the princess to the liar. It makes me sad for the princess just thinking about it.

"After me," Emperor Taizong of Tang couldn't believe that he would actually take the elixir later.

"Don't worry, little immortal. I will never take the elixir again in the future," Emperor Taizong of Tang promised. The little immortal had already told him what was in the elixir, so how could he dare to eat it?

"Also, there is the falsification of history, which means that later generations will not know the truth of the matter at all, just like how Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty changed history. Until now, later generations have doubts about his origins, suspecting that he was not the biological son of Empress Ma. So, it is better not to change this, otherwise future generations will write a story for you," Li Wu held his forehead with his hand, and the story was very outrageous.
