Li Zhi is the son of Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong. As we all know, Emperor Taizong was a very wise monarch and one of the most successful emperors in history. He benefited the people and made the Tang Dynasty extremely prosperous. Soon after, he gave birth to a son, namely Li Zhi. Li Zhi was incompetent since childhood and often made up his mind. Because of love, he still sits on the throne of the prince. Besides, another woman is Wu Zetian, who influenced Li Zhi's life.
Everyone knows that Wu Zetian is very capable. She was the first female emperor in the history of China. She is Li Zhi's wife. Since Wu Meiniang entered the palace, he has attracted the attention of Li Zhi. Li Zhi often trysts with Wu Zetian. It's a pity that being discovered by others that Wu Zetian is not worthy of Li Zhi will affect the reputation of the Prince. So Wu Zetian was accepted as a nun, but even so, it couldn't stop Li Zhi from trysting with Wu Zetian. In fact, the person that Wu Zetian really loves is Li Shimin. She wants to be in charge of state affairs with Li Shimin. As Li Shimin's maid, Wu Zetian has learned politics. When Li Shimin died, Wu Zetian killed all the former ministers step by step and used Li Zhi to establish her own dynasty. The means are cruel, and reason is his puppet, so I say he is incompetent.
