html In 4700, Wu Zhou Prime Minister Di Renjie was nearly seventy years old. He was no longer as comfortable handling government affairs as before. For this reason, Wu Zetian summoned Di Renjie to the palace to meet the saint and asked him to recommend a virtuous man. A young talent with both talent and talent will take over his position.

After the two met, Wu Zetian spoke frankly and asked: Huaiying, I hope you can recommend a talented person with both ability and political integrity to serve as the prime minister. Which minister in the court do you think is suitable for this position?

After hearing this, Di Renjie hesitated for a moment, and then replied: Your Majesty, if you are looking for a talented person with literary attainments, then Weichen recommends Li Qiao ht to you. ml5, Su Weiwei These two ministers have come to serve as the prime minister, but if His Majesty wants to choose a genius, then the minister will recommend to Your Majesty the governor of Jing Zhang Jianzhi . Although this person is older, he is calm and steady. , can serve as prime minister.

Wu Zetian was a little surprised after hearing this, but then promoted Zhang Jianzhi to Luozhou Sima.

" New Tang Book ": Chang'an , Empress Wu said to Di Renjie: "I have found a strange man. "Use it?" Renjie said, "Your majesty is looking for literary qualifications. The current prime ministers Li Qiao and Su Weiwei are not enough to succeed in the world." Later, Renjie said: "The governor of Jing, Shi Zhang." Although Cambodian is old, he is still a prime minister. Use it to the best of your benefit to the country. "He was immediately called to be the Sima of Luozhou.

After a while, Di Renjie's physical condition became worse and worse, and he had reached the end of his life. After Wu Zetian knew this situation, he hurried to Di Renjie's house to visit him.

Visiting In addition, Wu Zetian once again asked Di Renjie to Recommending talented people, Di Renjie dragged his sick body and said to Wu Zetian: Your Majesty, you haven't reused the genius Zhang Jianzhi that the minister recommended to you

After hearing this, Wu Zetian said with a puzzled face: I have already Promoted him to Luozhou Sima

When Di Renjie heard this, he said with an unhappy expression: Your Majesty, Zhang Jianzhi recommended to you by Wei Chen is a talented prime minister. You are a bit overqualified. Appointing him as a mere Sima is really a bit unfair.

Wu Zetian felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, so after she ended her visit to Di Renjie, she issued an imperial edict to promote Zhang Jianzhi to the rank of Minister of Qiuguan. After Di Renjie died of illness, he was promoted to minister of the prime minister.

"New Book of Tang": The next day he asked for help again, Renjie said: "I tried to recommend Zhang Jianzhi, but he didn't use it. Later he said: "It's time to move." Said: "It is not useful for a minister to recommend a prime minister to be a Sima." "He was awarded the title of Shaoqing, the Minister of Justice, and the Minister of Qianqiu.

We all know that there were many rising stars in the court at that time to choose, so why did Di Renjie frequently advise Wu Zetian to use Zhang Jianzhi, who was getting older? Di Renjie's What is the purpose of htm? l3

" Shenlong coup " Fang Xian Di Renjie's clever methods

html In the first year of 4705, it had been five years since Di Renjie died of illness, but a huge change took place in the palace. The civil and military ministers of the DPRK took advantage of the fact that Wu Zetian was seriously ill. On this occasion, they suddenly raised their troops and launched a mutiny, killing Zhang Yizhi, Zhang Changzong brothers, and then forced Wu Zetian to abdicate by force. Seeing that the situation was over, Wu Zetian announced his abdication and gave up the throne to Prince Li Xian. Prince Li Xian successfully ascended the throne and became Tang Zhongzong. tml12

This great change in the palace was the "Dragon Coup" that has been passed down through the ages, and the initiator of the "Dragon Coup" was the veteran Zhang Jianzhi recommended by Di Renjie before his death.

As for this "Dragon Coup" , it seems that the biggest contributor is Zhang Jianzhi, but in fact the biggest contributor is Di Renjie, who has died of illness for 5 years.

During his lifetime, Di Renjie actively pushed the members of the Li Tang royal family to restore the Li Tang artifact. However, due to Wu Zetian's fair physical condition at the time and the strength of the Wu Group, Di Renjie had no chance of restoring the Li Tang artifact.

Di Renjie is getting older and his physical condition is getting worse every day. This makes Di Renjie understand that he will not be able to complete this arduous and magnificent task in his lifetime.

Since then, Di Renjie began to look for candidates in the court who could complete this task. However, after searching, the civil servants and generals in the court were either loyal to the Wu Group, or they were young officials without any experience in governance. Di Renjie There was no other way, so I finally chose Zhang Jianzhi, who was older than me.

Di Renjie chose Zhang Jianzhi for three reasons:

- First, Zhang Jianzhi is loyal to the Li Tang royal family and has always taken the restoration of Li Tang's artifacts as his own responsibility.

Zhang Jianzhi was born in the period of Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty and grew up in the period of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. During this period, he passed the Jinshi examination, became an official, and served as the magistrate of Qingyuan County.

"Old Book of Tang ": Zhang Jianzhi, courtesy name Mengjiang, was a native of XiangzhouXiangyang. A student of Shaopu Imperial College, he dabbled in classics and history, and was especially fond of "Three Rites", which was very important to the emperor's sacrifice of wine Linghu Defen. He was promoted to Jinshi and became Qingcheng Cheng.

We all know that the period from Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to the early days of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the government was clear and the people were harmonious, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and everything was prosperous. Zhang Jianzhi, who was an official, was extremely proud.

But when Wu Zetian came to power, everything changed. Wu Zetian relied on her favor and arrogance, wantonly enabled her confidants to serve as officials in the court, and launched endless killings against the Li and Tang royal families. Zhang Jianzhi was very angry about this.

After Wu Zetian became emperor, Zhang Jianzhi once angered Wu Zetian because of government affairs. After being reprimanded by Wu Zetian, he was demoted to another place as an official. He cared about the country and the country, and had repeatedly advised Wu Zetian on his political actions, but they were all rejected by Wu Zetian. This made Zhang Jianzhi more and more disgusted with Wu Zetian, and he had the idea in his heart to support the Li Tang royal family and restore Li Tang. Tang Shengqi’s thoughts.

——The second one, Zhang Jianzhi is senior and quite prestigious.

Zhang Jianzhi lived through three dynasties, including Tang Gaozu, Tang Taizong, and Tang Gaozong. He was a well-known veteran of the Tang Dynasty. He served successively as Qingyuan County Magistrate, Supervisory Censor, and Zhongshu Sheren. He is the governor of two states in Shu and the governor of Jing. He has rich experience and has experienced big events. He is an official who can handle things.

——Third, Zhang Jian is popular, and good popularity will enable him to go further.

Zhang Jianzhi was able to take up the post of prime minister not only because of Di Renjie's recommendation, but also the recommendation of veteran Yao Chong. Wu Zetian once summoned Yao Chong to ask him to serve as prime minister. After hearing this, Yao Chong recommended Zhang Jianzhi, who was old but reliable, to Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian saw that both important ministers recommended Zhang Jianzhi to Wu Zetian. Zhang Jianzhi made Zhang Jianzhi the prime minister and presided over the government.

"Old Book of Tang Dynasty": In Chang'an, he was called Shaoqing, the chief minister of punishment, and moved to the official rank of Qiu. At that time, Yao Chong, the official minister of the Xia Dynasty, was the envoy of Lingwu Army. When he was about to leave, the Heavenly Order appointed a foreign minister who could be the prime minister. Chong said to him, "Zhang Jian is deep and resourceful, capable of handling major events, and he is old, but your majesty needs him urgently." Not long after, he moved to Fengge Pavilion to serve as minister, and he was still aware of political affairs.

If Di Renjie recommended Zhang Jianzhi in order to restore him to the Tang Dynasty artifact in the future, then Yao Chong recommended Zhang Jianzhi as prime minister, that is because Zhang Jianzhi had good popularity, Yao Chong admired him very much He is a man of people and works for people, so he strongly recommended him to Wu Zetian.

Before Zhang Jianzhi launched the Shenlong coup, he was weak and had no military power. For this reason, he found Generals Li Duozuo , Huan Yanfan , Jinghui and others. , he wants to restore the Tang Dynasty artifact He told several people about his idea, hoping that these people could help him. These generals and officials admired Zhang Jianzhi's conduct in life, so they all agreed to Zhang Jianzhi's request. During the Shenlong Coup, He charged forward for Zhang Jianzhi, beheaded the brothers Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong, and successfully installed Prince Li Xian on the throne, fulfilling Di Renjie's long-cherished wish during his lifetime.

Therefore, when we combine the above three points, we can see that Di Renjie is not only a person with a keen eye for understanding people, but also a politician who is good at planning and has clever means. A layout and arrangement he made before his death will lead to Wu Zetian's death five years later. He took down the throne and restored the artifact of the Tang Dynasty, which is amazing!
