Strike against the nobility
After Wu Zetian came to power, all the nobles who opposed her were assigned to the frontier and driven out of the court. Of course, Wu Zetian must know that she is the queen's superior. There must be a lot of people who don't agree with her, so she will kill chickens. The elimination of aristocratic rule headed by Sun Chang Wuji marked the end of the aristocratic rule era and provided good conditions for social progress and development.
Reforming the Imperial Examination and Reusing Poor Disciples
The most correct thing Wu Zetian did was to reform the imperial examination system, improve the overall status of Jinshi, increase their wealth and income, and allow children from poor families to take exams. As long as it can be admitted, regardless of family circumstances, it is paid by the court. This also makes many talented people no longer troubled by their origins.
reduce taxation
Wu Zetian has always stressed? Persuade farmers to mulberry and pay tribute? . She issued a decree, hoping that local people can take away cultivated land for agriculture and farmers can pay taxes with their own food instead of coins. She also stressed that local officials must strengthen the supervision of landlords, and once landlords forcibly occupy farmers' land, they will be directly punished.
Generally speaking, Wu Zetian is a rare holy emperor in the Tang Dynasty. Her name is also Tang Gaozong? Your voice? . She is resourceful and powerful, makes good use of talents, reforms science and technology, and attaches importance to selection. So the history books say that Wu Zetian took the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty to another height. Although she got rid of many royal families in the Tang Dynasty when she was in power, as a generation of emperors, she had to get rid of her competitors, which is also reasonable.
