Zong Chuke? He Dong, Puzhou (now Yongji County, Shanxi Province). The prime minister and poet of the Tang Dynasty, whose mother is Wu Zetian's sister.

He was born as a Jinshi and served as a foreign official. When Wu Zetian was in power, she moved to be the Minister of the household department. He committed adultery and embezzlement, and was exiled to Lingnan. In the first year of Shengong (697), he was promoted to prime minister, offended the powerful Wu Yizong and demoted to Bozhou Sima. In the fourth year of Chang'an (704), he became prime minister again. After the restoration of emperor Zhongzong in Tang Dynasty, he worshipped the order of Zhongshu and granted the Duke of Ying State. He and Ji Chuna were the confidants of empress Wei and were known as "Zongji". In the fourth year of Jinglong (July 22, 710), Li Longji, the king of Ping, launched the Tang Long coup and was put to death.

Six of his poems are recorded in the complete Tang poetry, all of which are works of Fenghe Yingzhi and whitewash Shengping. Among them, "Fenghe people's Day Qinghui Pavilion banquet officials meet with snow" and "Fenghe happy Anle Princess villa" are famous for their classic words and exquisite craftsmanship.

Life of the characters

Official to prime minister

During the period of Empress Wu, tudun, a Turkic power, was demoted to Tang Dynasty. The tribe moved to pingxia. It was rumored that tudun rebelled and the capital was shocked. At that time, Zong Chuke was a member of the army. Wu Zetian summoned him to inquire about the general plan. According to Zong Chuke's analysis, Tu Dun was loyal and honest, and would not rebel easily, but his nephew, Mo Zi, was quite cunning. Su and Tu Dun are at odds. The traitor is not Mo Zi but no one else. However, this person is incompetent and will not cause serious consequences. As expected, the zuomezi tribe in xiazhou soon ran north and was captured by the state soldiers and tudun. After the event, Zhang Renqi asked to build three surrender cities in xiazhou to prevent Turks from going south. Most of the commentators disagreed, but only the Chuke agreed, and pointed out that the construction of three surrender cities would benefit all generations.

Demoted Sima

Later, Zong Chuke and his brother Zong Qinke were exiled outside lingwai because of corruption. When they were still in Beijing, they served as the official servant of Xia Dynasty and the Minister of luantaiping in Fengge. Because of their discord with the powerful Wu Yizong, and because of their excessive extravagance and blasphemy, they were demoted to Bozhou Sima again. From then on, they went from Yuzhou governor to Shaofu Shaojian and restored their original positions. After Zong Chuke took the post of Prime Minister for the second time, he was demoted to be the governor of Yuanzhou for employing the daughter of King Shao. At the end of Wu Zetian's reign, Zong Chuke's official fortune was prosperous, but his ups and downs were full of frustrations.

Minister of the Ministry of war

After Tang Zhongzong returned to power, Wu Sansi, a powerful man, colluded with empress Wei and manipulated the state affairs. Zong Chuke tried his best to accept Wu Sansi and was recommended as Minister of the Ministry of war. In the court struggle between Crown Prince Li chongjun and Wu Sansi and empress Wei, Zong churu finally stood on the side of Wu Sansi and empress Wei, led more than 2000 soldiers with Yang Zaisi and others, and refused to stay in front of the Taiji hall. After Li chongjun's defeat, he fled to Zhongnanshan, where he was chased by Guoyi Zhao Sishen, who was sent by Zhuke, and asked to break Li chongjun's body to sacrifice Wu Sansi's ghost. After the struggle subsided, Zong Chuke was promoted to the third rank of tongzhongshu and once again became the prime minister. After Wu Sansi's death, Zong Chuke followed suit, colluded with empress Wei and Princess Anle, and gained more power. He became a friend of Ji Chu Na, known as "Zongji" in history, and became a living Wu Sansi. In the second year of Jinglong (708), Emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty ordered Suoge, a Turk, to be the king of Jinhe Prefecture. His subordinate, que ChuZhong Jie, was dissatisfied and bribed Zong Chuke to stop the incident. As a result, he became angry and resentful, led his troops to invade and plunder, and became a Border disaster. Cui Wan, the censor of supervision, played the role of emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty, and exposed that the Chuke of Zong played a domineering role and made friends with the foreign countries, causing resentment for the country. Zong Chuke not only didn't admit his guilt, but also said that he was loyal and was framed by Cui Wan. Tang Zhongzong didn't dare to find out the cause, so he asked them to drink and reconcile with each other. Therefore, Tang Zhongzong lost the title of "he Shi Tian Zi".

heart of disloyalty

With the expansion of power, Zong Chuke's political ambition became bigger and bigger. He attached himself to empress Wei on the outside, but he had been rebellious for a long time on the inside. He once told his party that when I was in a humble position, I especially loved the power of the prime minister, and I wanted to be the son of heaven. Even if I was widowed in the south, I would be satisfied. But before that day came, Webster group was eradicated by Linzi King Li Longji, and Zong Chuke and his younger brother Zong Jinqing were killed at the same time. Zong Chuke served as Prime Minister three times in the early Tang Dynasty and was a prominent political figure. However, in order to realize their own desire for power and profit, they attached themselves to Wu Sansi and empress Wei, a decadent force, and opposed the reform. Especially in the struggle between Prince Li chongjun and empress Wei. If he had not killed Li chongjun, the "Kaiyuan rule" would have appeared earlier.
