Princess Taiping

This book is about the eight or nine years of history from Wu Zetian's death to Tang Xuanzong's accession to the throne. This is a trough in the 300-year history of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also a prelude full of conspiracy, blood and hope before the arrival of the prosperous Kaiyuan era. In more than eight years, a total of five palace coups broke out. Two emperors (Wu Zetian and Tang Shao Emperor) were forced to abdicate, one emperor (Tang Zhongzong) died in mysterious circumstances, and another emperor (Tang Ruizong) was forced to become the Supreme Emperor. It can be said that it was a period of palace turmoil in the history of the Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian became empress, which stimulated the political ambitions of a group of women. They were all like moths to the flame, one after another. They are - Empress Wei, Wu Zetian's daughter-in-law, Princess Anle, Wu Zetian's granddaughter, Shangguan Wan'er, a talented girl promoted by Wu Zetian, and Princess Taiping, Wu Zetian's daughter. Throughout Chinese history, there has never been a period when so many women participated in fierce political competitions at the same time. Therefore, this is a special era of red makeup.
