Our Queen

With one hundred and twenty chapters, this book panoramically depicts the magnificent and legendary life of Wu Zetian, China's only orthodox female emperor. From the supernatural sign of the first birth in Lizhou, to entering the palace as a talented scholar of Taizong at the age of fourteen, and first getting involved in the dangers of the palace; from the forbearance under the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng in Ganye Temple, to the unprecedented reunion with Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi, and returning to the palace; from the bloody storm of "deposing the king to establish a military force" After ascending the throne of the Queen, she went to the "Two Saints" with Gaozong, and gradually participated in the national affairs; after the death of Gaozong, she came to the court as the Queen Mother to rule, and put down Xu Jingye's rebellion with an iron fist, and finally revolutionized the Tang Dynasty, established the Wu Zhou Dynasty, and became the Holy Emperor who ruled the world. The novel not only vividly depicts Wu Zetian's tactics and ruthlessness in eradicating political opponents (such as Queen Wang, Xiao Shufei, Changsun Wuji, Pei Yan, etc.) In the internal fighting in the palace, but also deeply depicts the complex monarch-minister game and political wisdom between her and famous officials such as Di Renjie, Lou Shide, Xu Yougong, etc. In terms of military affairs, she pacified the border and established the Anxi Protectorate to consolidate the border; in domestic affairs, she initiated palace examinations and military examinations, vigorously promoted scholars from poor families, broke the monopoly of Guanlong aristocrats, and laid the foundation for the "Kaiyuan Dynasty". At the same time, the work also touches on her emotional world as a woman with delicate brushstrokes, exploring her relationship with many faces (Xue Huaiyi, Zhang Yizhi, Zhang Changzong, etc.) And the political intentions and human loneliness behind them. The book ends with the desolation of the twilight of the "Dragon Coup" and the eternal loneliness of the wordless monument in Qianling Mausoleum, leaving endless comments and contemplation for future generations.
