About This Novel
The Tang Dynasty was the most powerful empire in the world at that time. It made brilliant achievements in culture, politics, economy, diplomacy, etc. It can be said that not only the Tang Dynasty, but even ancient China was recognized as a golden age. However, the good times did not last long. During the Tianbao period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the virtues of the rulers weakened the political affairs, the prime minister monopolized power and harmed the country, and the border generals harbored evil intentions. As a result, the political and economic situation of the Tang Dynasty took a turn for the worse. After the Anshi Rebellion, local vassal towns were separated and the internal affairs were divided. The eunuchs in the court had exclusive power, the cliques in the court and the central government were fighting, and the generals were constantly calling the police. In the complicated conflicts, the army of vassal towns could drive the court into exile, and the eunuchs' manipulation of power could depose and establish the emperor. The powerful Tang Dynasty empire could not become glorious again. "When autumn comes on the eighth day of the ninth month, when the flowers bloom, hundreds of flowers will be killed. The fragrance will reach the sky and penetrate Chang'an, and the whole city will be filled with golden armor."
