Those who are false to the Wu family are essentially disharmonious, and the ground is really cold. Yesterday, Chen Chong Taizong, a minister, changed clothes to serve. Evening festival, erotic palace chaos. Concealing the private affairs of the first emperor, hiding the secrets of the chamber of secrets, beginners are jealous, and moths refuse to let people go; Cover your ears and steal the bell, flattery can confuse the Lord.

Because she had the opportunity to change clothes, she was able to serve around. Later, although Lun Chang had an affair with the prince (Li Zhi, Tang Gaozong). Concealing the favor of the former emperor, he tried to gain the status of a favorite in the palace.
All the beautiful women who were elected to the palace were jealous of her, and no one was spared; It happened that she was very coquettish and fascinated the emperor like a fox. Finally, she ascended the queen's throne in a gorgeous dress, pushing the king to the ugly situation of incest. Add a snake and scorpion, cruel, close to traitors, kill loyalty, kill brothers and sisters, and kill your mother.

Creative background:
In the year of Heishengyuan (684), Wu Zetian abolished Li Xian, who had just ascended the throne, and made Li Dan emperor to prepare for further accession to the throne. When the army attacked Wu, Wang voted for the door and wrote a composition on the art of war. This article was written at this time.
This article is also called Begging, but after Wu Zetian proclaimed himself emperor in the first year of Yongchang (689), she called herself "money", which shows that this topic has been changed by later generations. Xu Shiqi, also known as the legendary Li, was awarded the title of Duke of England by Emperor Taizong for his contribution to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, and was given the surname Li. Later, his descendants inherited the Duke of England.
The author changed the habit of writing parallel prose in the past, adopted the form of parallel prose, and skillfully used the distinctive rhythm of parallel prose sentences to make it strong from beginning to end. The exposure of Wu Zetian's crimes, the loyalty to the Li and Tang dynasties and the declaration of the righteous teacher's starting an army all used fast rhythm and changing sentence patterns, which made the article aggressive and made readers have to obey without arguing.
At the same time, the author also uses the antithesis, allusion and exaggeration of parallel prose to express the momentum of the article, which shows strong persuasiveness and appeal to people and is worthy of being an immortal masterpiece in the history of China's prose.
