#History Talk#Just say that this Li Xian may not be much impression of everyone, but his mother is a famous name, that is the only empress in history, Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian first entered the palace as a talented person of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and later came together with the then crown prince Li Zhi when Li Shimin was seriously ill. Later, Li Shimin died, and Li Zhi was in the Linchao, but Li Zhi's health has not been very good, so that period of time can be regarded as the "Two Holy Dynasties".
After Li Zhi's death, he and Wu Zetian's son Li Xian took the throne, he was Li Zhi's seventh son, why could he ascend the throne, because several of his brothers were lost by Empress Wu. However, he was only one year old before he was ousted by his mother and installed his eighth brother Li Dan as a puppet emperor.
After Li Dan reigned for sixteen, Wu Zetian felt that the time was ripe, so he drove his son down again, took the throne himself, and changed the name of the country to Zhou. Li Dan, the puppet emperor, became the crown prince. When Wu Zetian was 75 years old, after various games, he finally made up his mind to pass the throne back to the Li family, and in line with the principle of establishing a long and not a child, he recalled Li Xian to make him a prince, and Li Dan became the king of Xiang.
Wu Zetian was seriously ill at the age of 82, and was staged by the then Prime Minister Zhang Kamzhi to launch the Shenlong coup and install the crown prince Li Xian to the throne. However, Li Xian was killed by his daughter-in-law Empress Wei and his daughter Princess Anle after only four years on the throne, and later Wei followed Wu Zetian and raised his son Li Chongmao to the throne, but within a month he was driven down by Li Dan's son Li Longji and Li Dan's sister Princess Taiping, after which Li Dan sat on the throne, and Li Dan gave way to his son Li Longji only two years later. At this point, the entanglement of grievances between the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren is over.
Li Xian's parents are Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, his younger brother is Li Dan, his son Li Chongmao, his nephew Li Longji, plus he has all been emperors, so he ridiculed Li Xian as "six emperor pills". In fact, if you look closely, his younger brother Li Dan can also deserve this title, because Li Dan and Li Xian have the same parents, and Li Dan himself, brother, son, and nephew have also been emperors.
There is also a Empress Xiao who is known as "Six Emperors Play" in the wild history. Let's expand on it next time.
