What kind of dynasty was the Tang Dynasty? Its prosperity surpassed all previous dynasties and spread the culture of the Central Plains to all over the world. Politics, economy, and culture all seem to be thriving. However, the Anshi Rebellion forced three generations of emperors to clean up the mess, and the Tang Dynasty eventually declined.

Wang Li of Guangping and Wang Li of Jianning are a pair of good brothers. They are both sons of Tang Suzong Li Heng. Li is the eldest son and Li is the third son. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji worked hard to govern the Tang Dynasty well. However, in the later period of Emperor Xuanzong, when Emperor Xuanzong was old, he began to indulge himself, enjoy a luxurious life, and indulge in singing, dancing, wine and music. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty trusted Li Linfu, a treacherous minister, which led to Li Linfu's monopoly on power and his arbitrary oppression of court officials. Even the emperor was hijacked by him. In addition, Xuanzong doted on the beauty Yang Guifei, and promoted Yang Guozhong, Yang Guozhong's brother, to the position of prime minister of the dynasty. Not only that, he was even more indulgent towards An Lushan, a Hu man. First, he asked Concubine Yang to adopt An Lushan as his adopted son. He also handed over full power of the imperial army and horses to An Lushan, allowing An Lushan to cultivate power and ambitions in Fanyang.

Unlike Yang Guozhong and An Lushan, Prince Li Heng of the East Palace was treated differently. Due to Yang Guozhong's instigation of dissension, the prince was disliked by Xuanzong. The prince's former concubine Wei Shi was also framed by Yang Guozhong for treason. sin. The Wei family suffered a disaster, and the prince was forced to divorce Wei. Wei was sent to a temple to be a nun, and was later killed by rebels during the Anshi Rebellion. The status of the East Palace was extremely embarrassing at the time. Prince Li Heng was not as favored as Yang Guozhong. Xuanzong always suspected that Li Heng wanted to kill him to become emperor, and was very wary of the prince. As long as the prince showed a little concern for political affairs, Xuanzong would be unhappy, but if the prince did nothing, Xuanzong would feel that he was incompetent and useless.

In "The Glory of the Tang Dynasty", the Webster incident broke out at the beginning. Prince Li Heng hurriedly went to see Xuanzong, but Xuanzong ignored him. This prince is not like the prince, who seems to be deposed by the emperor at any time. He looks decadent and trembles in front of Xuanzong. The eldest son of the crown prince, Prince Guangping Li and Prince Jianning, were very popular with Xuanzong, especially Li, who was completely cultivated by Xuanzong as his successor.

Faced with the two treacherous ministers in the court, Prince Li of Guangping in the Crown Prince's Mansion naturally could not openly oppose them. Secretly, Li trained a group of subordinates to investigate the evidence of Yang Guozhong's treason and An Lushan's rebellion. A plan of rebellion. Li had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. Both Xuanzong and Suzong regarded him as the future leader of the court and valued him particularly. Although King Li of Jianning was also very popular and was young and promising, he was still not as calm as his eldest son Li. Moreover, Li was born with a love of freedom, innocence and straightforwardness, just like a wild horse running wild.

In the play, Li and Li have a very good relationship. Li often chats and plays with his brother Li, and regards Li as his own brother. In front of Li, Li looked completely naughty and immature, which showed that Li was relatively laissez-faire towards him and doted on his younger brother. He shouldered all the burdens himself and allowed his younger brother to enjoy an unrestrained life. Li can choose the woman he likes as his concubine, but Li can't, because his marriage is related to the situation of the prince's palace in the court. He can't even decide who he wants to marry or who he wants to pamper. After the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Xuanzong fled to Chengdu, Shu with his relatives and family members. During his escape, Li saw the people's dire situation and persuaded his father Li Heng to gather soldiers to fight against the rebels. At a young age, Li put on armor and went into battle to face the enemy.

Historically, Li was sentenced to death by his father because Zhang Liangdi and Li Fuguo slandered Li for plotting to murder Prince Li of Guangping and wanted to compete for the crown prince's position. Li spoke for Li many times, but his father couldn't listen to what he said, so he still killed Li. Li Heng's minister Li Qin helped him defeat the rebels and eliminate the Anshi Rebellion. He was a hero, but he requested to resign. He also used the experience of King Li of Jianning as an example, saying that he would also end up like that. Li Qin said that if Li wanted to rebel, then Li would definitely hate him, but instead of hating him, Li was sad because Li was killed, which showed that Li had no intention of seizing the throne. Besides, Li, if Li has a grudge against anyone, it should be me, not His Majesty, but the fact that he re-employs me shows that he doesn’t hate me! Whether in the play or in history, Li and Li are good brothers, and the degree of historical restoration in this play is relatively high.
