Wu Zetian officially proclaimed himself emperor.
Please look at the character first.
Wu Zetian wants to be emperor.
Seeing the wind, my nephew Wu told someone to carve the words "Mother God, Yongchang Emperor" on a white stone, mix it with mud, and fill it in vaguely, and then give it to a man named Tang Tongtai, saying that it was fished out of Luoshui and presented to the palace.
The Queen Mother was overjoyed and named this stone "Tutu Stone" and promoted Tang Tongtai to guerrilla general. I personally went to Luoshui to collect the "treasure map", thank God. 【 688.5 】 Ambassador Wu chiseled the white stone as a text, saying, "The Virgin is a human being, and Yongchang is an emperor." Mixed medicine filled with purple stone. In Gengwu, Tang Tongtai, a native of Yongzhou, brought it to the table, saying that it was obtained from Luoshui. Empress Dowager Cixi was very happy and ordered to call her a "treasure map" and let Tong Tai be a guerrilla general.
Relatives of the governor, secretariat and imperial clan of Luozhou gathered in Luoyang to congratulate the Empress Dowager and honor her as the "Virgin Jade Emperor". Soon after, he gave amnesty to the world, changed the "treasure map" to "god map", renamed Luoshui as "Yongchang Luoshui" and named Luoshui God as "Xianshenghou", banned fishing and raised the standard of sacrifice. It is also called "Shengtu Spring", and Yongchang County is located here. With a stone, my nephew and I sang a double reed play. [688.5] In May, he was sworn in as a pro-Luo and was awarded the "Treasure Map"; If something happens in the southern suburbs, thank you first; After the ceremony, Yu, the courtier. The princes, the secretariat, the imperial clan, and the consorts of the States were ordered to gather together ten days before the worship. Yihai, the queen mother was named the virgin jade emperor.
In September of the lunar calendar in 690 AD, Fu Youyi, an imperial envoy, led 900 officers and men to enter Guanzhong. He went to court to stop seeing Wu Zetian, and asked her to formally change the name of the country to "Zhou" and change the surname of Emperor Li Dan to Wu. The queen mother disagreed. [690.9] In September, more than 900 people, including Bing Zi and Shuai Guanzhong, the assistants of Fu Yu, an imperial adviser, attended the table. Please change the country name to Zhou and give the emperor a surname of Wu, but the queen mother refused.
Shortly before this, Faming, a monk in the Eastern Wei Temple, wrote four volumes of the Great Cloud Sutra, proposing that the Queen Mother was born as a Maitreya Buddha in the West and would replace the Tang Dynasty as the son of heaven. Wu Zetian dedicated this book to the world. [690.4] Dayun Jing was written by Faming, a monk of the Eastern Wei Temple. It is said on the table that the Queen Mother was born under Maitreya Buddha, and the contemporary Tang Dynasty was a master of Jambu-Di^pa. Made in the world.
Fu Youyi has been paying close attention to this situation. When he saw that the queen mother refused, it was estimated that the momentum was not grand enough, and he led more than 60 thousand civil and military officials, the first of the four barbarians, and the monk, to persuade again. He also said that the phoenix has flown into the Shang Yang Palace, and thousands of cardinals are clamoring in the court. 【 690.9 】 "Entertainment is for things. So the officials, the emperor's clan, the people near and far, the leaders of the four barbarians, and the shaman monks, totaling more than 60 thousand people, were invited to the entertainment center, and the emperor also invited himself and gave him the name Wu. Five tones, the ministers said: "A phoenix emperor flew from Tang Ming to Shangyang Palace, and also gathered on Zuowutong. Over time, he flew to the southeast; And tens of thousands of episodes of Cardinals.
The queen mother felt that the climate was suitable and decided to accept persuasion and agree to ascend the throne, changing the Tang Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty. [690.9] Chen Geng, the Queen Mother can be invited by emperors and ministers. At noon, the emperor, forgive the world, take Tang as the week, and change the yuan.
The rise of a new dynasty always needs artificial public opinion.
In addition to directing and performing a set of ceremonies, Feng Ge assistant minister Zong Wu Zetian was ingenious and dedicated more than a dozen important Chinese characters to Wu Zetian, showing a new look in the new era. These words appeared from time to time in the books at that time, and later generations came across them by chance:
According to this change, Emperor Wu Zetian called himself Wu Zhao. [690. 1 1] Hedong, assistant minister of Fengge, lived in Qin Ke, and offered twelve characters, such as "heaven" and "earth", which Ding Hai did. The queen mother changed the imperial edict system from "Qi". Qin Ke, the son of the Queen Mother, comes from her father and sister.
Wu Zetian immediately ordered the country to be universal. These complicated and mysterious words are called "Wuzhou new words" by later generations.
The figures in power under the female emperor are Wu and Wu Sansi brothers, Wu and Huaiyi monk are also important roles, and then there are a number of cruel officials such as Zhou Xing and Lai Junchen.
Then, the female emperor accepted the suggestions of the ministers and boarded Zetian Building, with the title of "Emperor of the Holy Spirit". Call Li Dan changed his name to Wu Dan and be the heir; Wu Dan's son is Huang Taisun. All the people in power in the Wu family were promoted to the position of Lord, and the distant grandson was appointed as the county king, just like the practice of past dynasties, except that Wu Zhou was replaced and Wu Zetian was replaced by the emperor. For convenience, later generations generally call her Wu Zetian. [690.9] Yi You, who was honored as the emperor of the Holy Spirit, took the emperor as his heir and gave his surname Wu Shi; Take the crown prince as the grandson.
At the beginning of Emperor Zetian's accession to the throne, a precedent was set: after Gong passed the examination, he had to interview in person, which was the beginning of the "palace entrance examination" for later scholars and was of great benefit to the improvement of their status.
In order to win people's hearts, Tiandi went further than before.
At that time, Xu Shiqi's surname was changed to Li. Wu Zetian actually changed the names of all active ministers to Wu. Fu Youyi named martial arts entertainment in recognition of his pioneering work. Within a year, he rose from an official to an official and became a prime minister, wearing four official uniforms: green, green, Zhu and purple. At that time, people called him "an official in the four seasons." [690.9] Taking Si Binqing's History of Liyang as an example, Assistant Minister Fengge lived in Qin Ke to check the history of the school and gave Fu Youyi the posts of Assistant Minister Luantai and Pingzhang. There are also Cen Changqian, You Yu Qianwei, General Zhang, Sha Jinwu, General Qiu and Shi Laizixun. Be given the surname Wu. Qin Ke tried to persuade Empress Dowager Cixi to make a revolution, so this is the first folk history. In the middle stage of entertainment, the clothes are blue, green, red and purple, and people call them four-time officials.
Wu Zetian sent envoys with wealth to various places to select talents. Those selected by the village ambassadors, regardless of their ability and virtue, are promoted as usual. When the high-level officials closed the cabinet, they gave gifts to others, and almost tried Yuan Wailang, He Buque, Picking up the remains and proofreading Lang, all of which were within the product stream, and the trial officer system began. This practice is both excessive and abusive, and is despised by society. There are a few jingles: fill the vacancy, pick up the car, and pick up the leftovers. Push suggestions and history, and take off proofreading.
[692. 1] In the spring of January, the Empress Dowager Ding Mao introduced the people mentioned in the Poem of Storing the Complex, and added them to the list without asking about the virtuous and foolish. The highest person tried to get a job in Fengge, trying to be a foreign minister, an imperial adviser, a vacancy, a gleaning and a proofreader. Judge, from now on. At that time, the artificial language said: "fill the gap to pick up the car, pick up the residual balance bucket;" Push the suggestion and get rid of the proofreader. "
Juren Shen Quanjue continued to say two sentences:
Paste the heart and caress the envoy, squinting at the holy jade emperor.
In the first four sentences, it is the court's admonition officer who fills the vacancy, and the counselor and proofreader are also civil servants. There are too many cars to carry them and too many buckets to measure them! I am a four-toothed rake, and the bowl should be demoulded with a mold. These immortals have it with a rake and a drag, just like desliming, and they can pinch as much as they want. Shen Quanjiao is too presumptuous, saying that deposits are paste barrels, which is extremely confused; Wu Zetian squinted and couldn't see clearly, making such a mess. The Oracle of Yushiji arrested him, imprisoned him, impeached him for slandering the court affairs, and demanded that he be punished with a rod in the court before being tried by the court.
Who knows that Wu Zetian disagreed and said with a smile: "You people in charge don't take things indiscriminately, but you are afraid that others will say strange things?" Let him go quickly! "JiXian know not to know yesterday's wu zetian became today's emperor ze day, attitude has changed. [692. 1] There is a saying that Juren Shen Quan continued to pay tribute to him: "I was so anxious that I stared straight at the Jade Emperor. "[692.1] was caught by the Oracle of Yushiji, illegally slandered the court affairs, invited him to join the staff in the court, and then paid the law. The queen mother smiled and said, "But if you don't abuse your generation, you can't control others! It is appropriate to release him from his crime. "The prophet is ashamed. Although the Queen Mother has won the hearts of people all over the world by abusing her power, those who are incompetent will be punished or punished. Holding the handle of reward and punishment to control the world, the government came out on its own, with a keen eye and good judgment, so the heroes at that time also competed for it.
Wu Zetian is not an idiot, but a very powerful female emperor. She no longer trusts some informers who are particularly humble as in the past.
She once ordered that people should not slaughter livestock to catch fish and shrimp. The drought in the Jianghuai area made people afraid to fish clams in the water, and many people starved to death. But you picked up Zhang Desheng's son, held a soup and cake banquet in the Three Dynasties, slaughtered sheep privately to buy wine, and invited colleagues to get together to celebrate. Du Su was also a guest. He secretly hid a sheep bone crop certificate. The next day, he complained that Zhang De had violated the ban.
After the early morning of the next day, Wu Zetian chatted with Zhang De: "I heard that you gave birth to a son, congratulations!" Zhang De thanked him again and again. At this moment Tian changed the subject and asked, "Where did you get the mutton?" Zhang De knelt down again to apologize.
Wu Zetian said seriously: "I forbid slaughter, not absolutely;" Eat meat for better or worse. However, I want to advise you that you should treat your guests according to your personality and never choose! " I immediately showed him Du Su's watch.
When this matter reached Du Suer, he was embarrassed. North Koreans also avoided him and refused to answer. Since then, the number of people who accuse unruly people in society has obviously decreased. [692.5] In May, Bing Yin banned slaughtering the world and catching shrimps. Jianghuai was dry and hungry, and people were not allowed to pick fish and shrimp, which starved many people. Zhang De, who was born three days ago, killed a colleague of the Sheep Association without permission. Du, who filled the vacancy, reported this situation in the above table. Tomorrow, the queen mother will ask her face to face and say, "I'm glad to hear that you gave birth to a boy." Debbie. The queen mother asked, "How did you get the meat?" Deco kowtowed and pleaded guilty. The queen mother said, "I forbid slaughtering, and I don't foresee good or bad luck. However, since we have invited guests, we must also choose people. " Show it by going out. I feel ashamed and want to spit in my face.
