Yao Chong made a decisive decision. He was praised as the prime minister because he made ten suggestions to Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. These ten suggestions include: don't be greedy for border affairs, open up roads, reward loyal ministers, don't make the royal family monopolize power, don't make eunuchs monopolize power, and so on. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty basically followed Yao Chong's suggestion.
Yao Chong didn't take good care of his relatives. At that time, Wang Xueli's uncle Wang Xiantong bullied the people and did many evils. After Yao Chong appealed to Xuanzong for approval, he punished Wang Xiantong.
Yao Chong also presided over the locust plague control in the early years of Kaiyuan. At that time, a serious locust plague occurred in the north and south of the Yellow River. Locusts came to cover the sun. The crops were badly damaged. Yao Chong is well aware that if locusts cannot be eliminated in time, it will not only bring huge economic losses and disasters to the people, but also be crucial to the stability of the country. He personally commanded and ordered all counties to go all out to eliminate locusts. He rewarded them for their meritorious deeds. With his vigorous promotion, the plague of locusts did not continue.
Song Jing.
He also attaches great importance to the selection and appointment of talents. Although he holds the power of state affairs, he never breaks the law. On the contrary, he is stricter with his relatives. Once, when his distant uncle Song participated in the selection of the official department, he told the examiner about his special relationship with Song Jing, hoping to take care of it and find a good official to do it. After Song Jing was informed, he not only did not intercede for him, but took special care of the official department and did not do it for him.
Zhang Jiuling
Zhang Jiuling is from Guangdong. At that time, Guangdong was called Lingnan. This is not a developed area. Criminals are often exiled there as a punishment. Therefore, in people's eyes, it is a desolate and hard place. Because Cantonese people in past dynasties rarely served as officials in the DPRK, it is difficult for people from there to have such senior officials as prime ministers in the DPRK. But Zhang Jiuling was favored by Xuanzong for his outstanding talent.
After Zhang Jiuling became prime minister, he also valued people's morality and talents like Xuanzong, not their origins. When the official department participated in the selection of officials, it always advocated fair selection of talents and talents, and the use of talents. At the same time, he also pointed out Xuanzong's fault in time and admonished him. He did not hide the truth because Xuanzong was grateful to himself.
Li Fulin has a sweet mouth and a sword.
This Li is best at guessing the meaning of Tang Xuanzong. In 736 AD, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty wanted to return to Chang 'an from Luoyang. But Prime Minister Zhang Jiuling and others said that the autumn harvest is not over yet. This will harass people and affect production. After Zhang Jiuling left, Li said to Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty: Chang 'an and Luoyang are your majesty's East Palace and West Palace. Your majesty can come and leave whenever he wants. You don't have to wait any longer. As for obstructing farmers' autumn harvest, it is ok to exempt them from taxes. Xing. Follow the plan. Later, Li took the opportunity to frame Zhang Jiuling and others. Finally, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty dismissed these outspoken prime ministers. After Li came to power, anyone who stood with him and did not listen to him would try their best to frame him. Li is jealous of talented people. He speaks well, but his heart is sinister. Therefore, people secretly call him a "honey-tongued sword".
Seize the daughter-in-law and spoil the imperial concubine (Yang Yuhuan)
In 736 AD, Wu Huifei, the favorite concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, died of illness. Xuanzong couldn't sleep all day. It is said that he and his son, Li Mao's concubine Yang, are stunning beauties, so they recruited him into the palace regardless of etiquette. Yang Fei knows the rhythm and is very smart. He is good at singing and dancing. She is very popular with Xuanzong.
In order to cover up his ugly act of stealing his daughter-in-law, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty asked Yang Fei to enter the palace to be a female official and live in the Nangong. This title is too real. In order to comfort his son Shouwang, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty married him a concubine as compensation.
The feudal ethics in this period was not as strict as it was after the advent of Zhu Neo-Confucianism in the late Southern Song Dynasty. Although men and women have unequal ideas, they are still tolerant of women's chastity and remarriage. The suppression of women in feudal society was in the Ming and Qing Dynasties after the Yuan Dynasty. The reason why Wu Zetian became a queen at this time is related to this tolerant social psychology. Therefore, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, Empress Dowager Cixi, who also held state power, dared not claim to be the queen. Public opinion and social psychology have played an important role.
Later, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty made Fei Yang the imperial concubine. This is the famous Yang Guifei in history. The imperial concubine is second only to the queen. But there is no queen at this time, so Yang Guifei is actually the queen of Tang Xuanzong. Xuanzong was very kind to her and praised her as her own "flower release". With the relationship of Yang Guifei, Yang Jiacai began to flourish. So, at that time, people had the hope of having children.
Tang Xuanzong tried his best to please the imperial concubine. In order to cater to her love of clothes, more than 700 people specially waited on the imperial concubine to make clothes for her. In order to let her eat her favorite litchi, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty also ordered the opening of Gong Li Road, a thousand miles from Lingnan to Chang 'an, so that litchi could be quickly transported to Chang 'an by fast horses in time, because litchi would go bad within five days after being picked. Yang Guifei was born in the south and likes to eat this kind of food.
With Yang Guifei, the extravagance of Tang Xuanzong became more and more prosperous. In order to please the emperor, ministers, nobles, and imperial clan courted the imperial concubine in succession. As a result, everyone who made her happy was promoted, which stimulated more bureaucrats and nobles to curry favor with him and offer delicious food and rare treasures.
Yang is authoritarian and chaotic.
Under the influence of my sister, my younger brother Yang soared into the sky and became the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. Yang Guifei's sisters also benefited a lot: the elder sister was named Mrs. Han, the second sister was named Mrs. Guo and the third sister was named Mrs. Qin. Other brothers were also rewarded. They became senior officials in North Korea. Yang's strength is unparalleled. The glorious period of the two brothers and sisters also laid the groundwork for the tragic ending in the future.
Under Yang's autocratic power, the whole Tang Dynasty began to fall into chaos. It can be said that the decline of the Tang Dynasty was due to the fault of Xuanzong. However, Yang's brothers and sisters, especially Yang, did not play a positive role. His evil deeds did not bring good luck to his sister. Instead, it sent her to the point of no return. Beauty is not a sin, but it is a reason.
Under Yang's rule, the first is the chaos of state affairs. When the rainstorm caused disaster, Xuanzong asked about the disaster. Yang Guozhong showed Xuanzong a big ear of millet. He said it rained heavily, but it didn't affect the harvest. Some officials below reported the disaster. He asked for help. He flew into a rage and ordered the judicial organs to severely punish him. Yang's ability is not high, but he likes to handle state affairs at random. He can't do the right thing. He is good at taking bribes and organizing gangs.
The chaotic political events affected the country's economy. During this period, the land equalization system collapsed and the tax revenue dropped sharply. However, due to the extravagance of Xuanzong and Yang Guifei, the expenses of the imperial court gradually increased. The state treasury cannot make ends meet. Political corruption has also affected the combat effectiveness of the army. Because the recruited soldiers were all rogues, these people not only failed to win the war that Xuanzong later launched, but caused even greater losses.

He hoped to rely on his own talent and embark on his career through the recommendation of others, but no one appreciated him all the time. He once wrote a book to introduce himself with Han Jingzhou, a famous contemporary figure, but he didn't get a reply. Until the first year of Tianbao (742), due to the recommendation of Taoist Wu Yun, Li Bai was called to visit the Hanlin in Chang 'an, and his articles became famous all over the world. Li Baichu was appreciated by Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty for his talent, but later he was unable to meet the dignitaries. After only three years in Beijing, he gave up his official position and continued his wandering life.
