Was the historical Tang Zhongzong really suddenly ill and violently killed?
What caused his death?
Emperor Zhongzong died violently, so why did Tang Min want to cry out for Empress Wei and rehabilitate Princess Anle?
First of all, here is a detailed introduction to the emperor of Tang Zhongzong, who was a figure who ascended to the emperor's throne twice in the Tang Dynasty.
His main achievements were the Shenlong Coup and the restoration of the Tang Dynasty.
so? Why did an emperor with such great achievements suddenly fall ill and die at a young age? What caused his death?
Is it artificial? Or providence? Or did someone deliberately plot to kill him?
First of all, here is some information about Tang Zhongzong's life, about Tang Zhongzong, he was the seventh son of The third emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzong Li Zhi, and also the third son of Wu Zetian, who reigned twice from 683 to 684 AD and from 705 to 710 AD, and ascended to the emperor's throne twice.
Although his reign was short, it was in such a short period of time that he worked diligently to restore the dominance of the Tang Dynasty.
However, the young emperor, at the age of 54, suddenly fell ill and died.
In fact, the reasons for Tang Zhongzong's illness and death have been recorded in the history books, but as for the accuracy, no one can determine, but the cause of Tang Zhongzong's death is recorded in detail in the history books, perhaps, Tang Zhongzong's death was indeed a sudden illness and death.
According to the records in the historical records, When Tang Zhongzong was 54 years old, that is, in 710 AD, he suddenly suffered from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which was a genetic disease, and there were examples of sudden cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the Li Tang family before.
Of course, Tang Zhongzong estimated that he also inherited this disease, and at the age of 54, he suddenly fell ill and died.
At that time, Tang Taizu Li Yuan, Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and Tang Gaozong Li Zhi all suffered from this disease and died suddenly in an abrupt time.
The unfortunate Tang Zhongzong, as their descendant, is estimated to have inherited their genes, and when they were born, they existed in their blood.
However, according to other historical sources, it is said that Tang Zhongzong's death was not a sudden death of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but was poisoned to death.
poison?
Does that word sound weird?
Emperor Zhongzong of Tang was an emperor. How could it be poisoned?
Do you know that when the ancient emperors ate, no matter when and where, they would order the eunuchs to use silver needles to check whether there was poison in the meal?
Poisoning is obviously impossible for the emperor?
However, it is indeed recorded in the history books that the death of Tang Zhongzong was indeed poisoned by people. And it was done without God's knowledge and without the ghost's knowledge.
That is to say, Tang Zhongzong was not aware of it at all.
The initiators were his most trusted Empress Wei and Princess Anle?
Everyone knows that during the Tang Dynasty, it was very common for emperors to be poisoned, especially under the rule of ancient feudal dynasties, there were always people with disobedient hearts who started to poison and kill the emperor.
There are proofs in extant history books that the death of Emperor Zhongzong of Tang was most likely a premeditated poisoning of Empress Wei and Princess Anle.
Empress Wei and Princess Anle, as early as the reign of Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, had a rebellion with Li Longji, the son of King Xiang, and the leading figures of this rebellion were Empress Wei and Princess Anle.
Tang Zhongzong did not know the wolf heart and dog lungs of the mother and daughter, and once again in the main hall, he ate the sweet cake sent by Empress Wei and Princess Anle, and as a result, he died violently in the palace.
The cause of death was eating poisonous cookies, Empress Wei and Princess Anle poisoned inside the sweet cake, Tang Zhongzong did not know that this sweet cake was poisonous, Empress Wei and Princess Anle were his closest people, so Tang Zhongzong did not expect that their mother and daughter would join hands to poison him.
In fact, the proof of poisoning is also based on evidence, according to the old Tang Book history books, half a month after Tang Zhongzong's death, Empress Wei and Princess Anle also died, and the cause of death was in the coup d'état that poisoned Tang Zhongzong.
Were they both victims of the coup, or were they deliberately committed?
Maybe he was framed? Or is it a last resort, all possible?
Empress Wei and Princess Anle, although poisoning Emperor Zhongzong of Tang were extremely evil, were buried with the etiquette of the royal nobility after their deaths.
If tang Zhongzong's death was not accidental, then the deaths of Empress Wei and Princess Anle were a little too sudden?
Why?
Too many coincidences under the sky?
Why did Empress Wei and Princess Anle die as soon as Tang Zhongzong died, just over half a month after Tang Zhongzong's death?
Is this death too sudden?
so?
How did the historical Tang Zhongzong die?
