Edit the history, and count the top ten emperors at the beginning!

Chapter 137
[In order to remain in Li Tang, Zhang Jianzhi and others are preparing to launch a coup.

At this time, Yao Chong, who had been working as an official in other places, got news from Zhang Jianzhi, and also learned that Wu Zetian's health was not in good condition, so he smelled a storm coming!

Yao Chong returned to the capital decisively at this time, and happened to meet Zhang Jianzhi and others who were planning to launch a coup d'etat, so Yao Chong took advantage of the opportunity to participate in this coup d'etat, known in history as the Shenlong coup d'etat!
Under the efforts and pressure of Yao Chong and Zhang Jianzhi, Wu Zetian had no choice but to pass the throne to his son Li Xian, and it was precisely because of Li Xian's accession to the throne that Li Tang's world was preserved.

For this reason, Wu Zetian himself revoked the title of emperor, and also erased the name of the Great Zhou Dynasty from history, and returned the power to the descendants of Li and Tang. 】

["Zizhi Tongjian" records: In September, Renzi used Yao Yuanzhi as the general manager of the Lingwu Dao march; Xin You used Yuanzhi as the Lingwu Dao appeasement ambassador.

When the Yuan Dynasty was about to go, the Empress Dowager ordered the foreign secretary to be the prime minister.

Confrontation said: "Zhang and Cambodia are serious and strategic, able to resolve major events, and he is old. But your majesty needs it urgently." And eighty.

In his later years, Wu Zetian really thought about it. In fact, who will be the emperor is not the same?But without Zhang Jianzhi and Yao Chong pushing at the last moment, Wu Zetian really had a hard time making a choice.

Being able to come back at such a critical time and play a key role, it can be seen that Yao Chongna's title of "Prime Minister of Saving Time" is really not a bragging rights.

Because of his meritorious service in supporting Li Xian to ascend the throne, Yao Chong was also made a Marquis.

However, at this time, Yao Chong had not entered the inner circle of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, but was sent to many places to serve as the governor.

The internal affairs of Tang Zhongzong's era were too chaotic, and he had his own group of cronies, so Yao Chong naturally couldn't intervene in his internal affairs.

However, this is precisely a good thing, because of Yao Chong's release, he successfully escaped another extremely risky coup d'état. 】

Li Shimin was the first to give Yao Chong a thumbs-up, saying: "Yao Chong is really good, he played a key role at the critical moment!"

"That's the prime minister who created the peak of China' Kaiyuan Prosperity! My prime minister! Hahahaha!!!" Li Longji laughed triumphantly.

"Yao Chong is good, but it's a pity that Tang Xuanzong lost all his previous achievements in his later years. Otherwise, with the strong strength of the Tang Dynasty at that time, no matter what, it would have been more glorious for another hundred years?" Zhao Kuangyin said regretfully.

Looking at other people's prime ministers, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help thinking of his current left and right prime ministers Li Shanchang and Xu Da, and immediately said to himself proudly: "Hehe, you have Yao Chong, and we also have Li Shanchang and Xu Da, which are no worse than your Tang Dynasty. !"

However, the prime ministers of Zhu Yuanzhang in history did not end well, except for the old brother Xu Da.
For example, Li Shanchang, the Prime Minister of Zuo, who Zhu Yuanzhang called "Living Xiao He", defected to Zhu Yuanzhang when he was at his weakest.

At the beginning of Hongwu, he served as prime minister of Zuo, granted the title of Duke of South Korea, served as an official for four years, was killed in his later years, and exterminated his family.
Another example is Wang Guangyang, the prime minister of the right, a Jinshi at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. From the fourth to sixth year of Hongwu, he moved to Guangdong to join, and died in the 12th year of Hongwu.

Another example is Yang Xian, who was killed because Li Shanchang impeached him for "presumptuous adultery".

Finally, Hu Weiyong, the right prime minister, moved to the left prime minister from Hongwu six to ten years, and died in 13 years. More than [-] people died of being implicated in Hu Weiyong's case!
Moreover, Hu Weiyong should be regarded as the last prime minister in Chinese history. After his death, Zhu Yuanzhang dismissed the left and right prime ministers and abolished the Ministry of Education.

It can be seen that the prime minister of Lao Zhu in this period was a high-risk occupation, but fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was "fortunately" selected by the system, changed a lot, and there was no such large-scale killing again.Therefore, Li Shanchang is still working in the position of Prime Minister Zuo, and he is probably busy preparing for the bank and new banknotes at the moment.

The video continues to play.

When Yao Chong met again, he was ready to enter the court again.

[After the Shenlong coup, Li Xian ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, restoring the Li Tang Dynasty. 】

[However, Li Xian, the short-lived emperor, obviously didn't realize what kind of ruthless character his wife and daughter were, and he was poisoned to death by them
After these two poisoned Tang Zhongzong to death, they changed the child Li Chongmao to be the emperor, and Empress Wei learned from Wu Zetian to listen to the government, which was the prelude to usurping the throne. 】

[However, the means and prestige of the two of them are obviously inferior to Wu Zetian.

The forces headed by Princess Taiping and Li Longji launched a coup again in the court. Empress Wei and others were killed, forcing the young emperor to abdicate, and Li Dan (father of Li Longji), the Prime Minister, was established as emperor, and it was Tang Ruizong. 】

"Every time I think of this highlight moment, I can't help but get excited!" Li Longji was obviously very proud of this coup.

Yao Chong in the beam of light is also quite emotional, "Recalling the old man's words, although the reform has not persisted, he has performed well at every critical moment and can be ranked among the top ten famous figures in history. I just don’t know who this Mr. Su is.”

[Li Dan is the youngest son of Wu Zetian, the elder brother of Princess Taiping, and the father of Li Longji.Princess Taiping and Li Longji helped Li Dan to the throne, so they naturally had their own plans. 】

[Tang Ruizong's younger sister, Princess Taiping, has greatly increased her power because she helped Li Longji launch a palace coup. Because Ruizong obeyed her sister too much, there was a conflict between Princess Taiping and Li Longji.

Because Tang Ruizong trusted Princess Taiping very much, Princess Taiping's ambitions gradually expanded, and she began to gradually seek to usurp the throne. 】

[Yao Chong was transferred back to the capital at this time, and he naturally discovered this problem.

The few prime ministers in the court are all Princess Taiping's people, and the emperor Tang Ruizong can't even speak.

After Yao Chong became prime minister, he was also co-opted by Princess Taiping.But Yao Chongyan rejected Princess Taiping and said that he would be loyal to Tang Ruizong, so he gave Princess Taiping the most ruthless. 】

[The end of offending the princess is always bad. In order to protect himself and the Li Tang Dynasty, Yao Chong, Li Longji, Song Jing and others walked together and worked together to eradicate the power of Princess Taiping, thus stabilizing the situation. The government completely wiped out Wu Zetian's remnant party. 】

[However, before Princess Taiping was completely overthrown, in order to reconcile Princess Taiping and Li Longji, Li Dan had to demote Yao Chong and Song Jing from the capital.

However, Yao Chong and Song Jing were demoted, but Li Longji became the biggest winner in the end, and he won extremely beautifully.He not only won the support of many ministers and mastered more power, but also left a reputation of filial piety and humility, and won the complete trust of Li Dan, from suppression to gradual surrender of power.

Yao Chong and Song Jing finally ushered in their peak moments after Li Longji ascended the throne! 】
