In the late Tang Dynasty Xuanzong, it can be said that there were internal and external troubles, but Tang Xuanzong did not listen to the affairs outside the window, neglected the government and reused the traitors to ignore state affairs, and was dedicated to the beauty Yang Yuhuan.

In the early period of the reign of Tang Xuanzong Li Longji, he reused virtuous ministers and made great efforts to make the country prosperous, and the social economy continued to develop, and there was an unprecedented prosperous scene of feudal society. However, in the later part of his reign, he indulged in wine, indulged in extravagance, reused traitorous ministers, and was politically corrupt, and finally broke out in the Anshi Rebellion, which led to the decline of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Li Longji is a historical figure with outstanding merits and demerits.

In the early period of Li Longji's reign, he attached great importance to the selection of magistrates, and personally assessed the county orders and dismissed incompetent people. Yao Chong and Song Jing, who were talented, responsible, and daring to advise, were appointed as prime ministers, so the society was stable, production developed, and the economy was prosperous, and the Tang Dynasty entered its heyday, known as the "Kaiyuan Dynasty" in history. In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, it was the most prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, and there were 321 counties, 1,538 counties, 16,829 townships, 9,069,154 households, and 52,880,488 people. History: "The prosperity of the household registration is extremely this".

He attached great importance to the jurisdiction of the border areas, and named Dazuo Rong of the end of Su as the "King of Bohai County", set up the Bohai Governor's Mansion and the Heishui Governor's Office, named the Piluo Pavilion of Nanzhao as the King of Yunnan, and named the Guli Peiluo of the Hui Dynasty as the "Huairen Khan", thus consolidating the unity of the multi-ethnic country.

Reform the military system and change the government military system to a conscription system.

In the later period of Li Longji's reign, he favored Yang Guifei, drank and had fun all day long, ignored political affairs, and reused the treacherous Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, and the politics were very corrupt, which led to the Anshi Rebellion. The rebellion of An Lushan and Shi Siming, which lasted for eight years, greatly damaged agricultural production, displaced the people, and turned the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline, and the Tang Dynasty began to go downhill.

The eventful autumn made Zhen Qian's heart chill, the slightest carelessness in the changes of the wind and clouds will be a catastrophe, his dream is to earn hundreds of millions, and he will be a merry and happy rich man with beautiful wives and concubines, and a group of children.

Now that Zhen Qian is thrown in troubled times, I can't help but think of Du Fu's "Soldier Chariot Traveler"...... Giving birth to a daughter still has to marry a neighbor, and giving birth to a boy is buried with a hundred grasses. You don't see the head of Qinghai, and no one collects the ancient white bones. ”

didn't want to stay in the late Tang Dynasty, let alone invite unwarranted disasters, Zhen Qian thought about it and thought that there were only three ways to go.

The first is that before the Anshi Rebellion broke out, it was a good place to stay away from the war-torn north and flee to the south and Bashu.

The second road chooses a rare mountain forest, and since then it has disappeared without a trace.

The third way is to go to a foreign country, leaving Datang to find an island overseas to be isolated from the world, and never ask about the world.

The first way can only temporarily avoid the war, there is no place for peace in the world in troubled times, Zhen Qian knows very well what it means to hide from the monk and not from the temple, is there really a calm and peaceful peach blossom source in the Tang Dynasty?

The second way seems to be feasible, but in fact it is also full of dangers, people are social animals, once they break away from the social group and live a life like a wild man, can Zhen Qian really bear it?

After the Anshi Rebellion, there was the division of the feudal towns, the chaos of the dynasty, and the invasion of foreign tribes, how could there be a place for Zhen Qian in the world, years of war, the people were displaced, the imperial court was tyrannical, and the feudal towns were constantly attacked, and the torrent of history will be wrapped in mud and sand to sweep everything, can Zhen Qian really stay out of the matter?

No! Unless Zhen Qian stays away from Datang and goes to a place where no one can find it.

Far away from overseas is as far away, can you survive by yourself in the sea alone? Food, clothing, housing and transportation are not professional craftsmen, can you live a savage life with the sky as the quilt and the earth as the bed?

Zhen Qian thinks a lot, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and thirty-six plans are the best plan, but how to go and where to go, this can stump Zhen Qian.

A lot of things have happened in the eleventh year of Tianbao, and Zhen Qian has been paying attention to the changes in the situation all the time.

In February, Xuanzong ordered Yousi to send hundreds of thousands of silk and treasury money to the two capitals in exchange for bad money. First of all, there was a lot of bad money in the Jianghuai region, and the nobles and big businessmen often exchanged good money for bad money and transported it into Chang'an, and the bad money was rampant in the market, and Li Linfu asked for a ban. In exchange for the official period, the period is one month, and those who do not send it to the official will be punished as a crime. So the businessman was arrogant, thinking that it was inconvenient, and jointly covered Yang Guozhong's horse and sued him. Guozhong said to Xuanzong, and changed the order to those who were not cast and perforated by lead and tin, and continued to use them.

In March, An Lushan Fafan and Han Bu rode 200,000 to attack the Khitan, and Xue Tianbao was defeated by the Khitan for ten years. First of all, the Turkic Absi came to surrender, and Tang Xuanzong treated him with great courtesy, gave him the name Li Xianzhong, gave him the title of Fengxin King, and ordered him to be the deputy envoy of Shuofang Jiedu. Li Xianzhong is talented and strategic, and he refuses to succumb to the bottom of Lushan, so An Lushan has a grudge, so he asked Li Xianzhong to join tens of thousands of Luo soldiers to help attack the Khitan. Li Xianzhong was afraid of being killed by An Lushan, so he said to Zhang Wei, who stayed behind, please play Tang Xuanzong and not go, but Zhang Wei did not agree. So Li Xianzhong's troops plundered the warehouse and rebelled to Mobei, and An Lushan stopped his army. In September, Absi entered the Kou and surrounded Yongqing Gate, but was repelled by Zhang Yuanliang, the gate envoy.

In April, An Sishun was the envoy of the Shuo Festival.

In May, Jiajing Zhaoyin Yang Guozhong Imperial Shi Dafu, Gyeonggi, Guannai and other envoys, all the envoys led by Wang Ji returned to Guozhong. On November 12 of the same year, Li Linfu died, and Yang Guozhong paid homage to the prime minister, and he led more than 40 envoys.

In June, Yang Guozhong played 600,000 Tubo soldiers to save the Southern Zhao, and the Jiannan soldiers broke through Yunnan, pulled out the three cities such as Xizhou, and captured 6,300 people.

In November, Yang Guozhong was the prime minister, and Cui Yuan, the secretary of the department, was the queen of Jiannan, and the Taishou Jiwen of Wei County was appointed as the imperial historian, and he was the envoy of Gyeonggi and Guannai. Jiwen to Fanyang bid farewell to An Lushan, and An Lushan ordered his son An Qingxu to send Jiwen out of the country, and led the horse for Jiwen to dozens of steps outside the post. After Jiwen arrived in Chang'an, everything that happened in the imperial court was reported to An Lushan.

In December, Shi Siming, the envoy of the soldiers and horses of Pinglu, was also the Taishou of Beiping, and served as the military envoy of Lulong. Shi Siming is a Turkic species, the first name is dry, Tang Xuanzong gave the name Shi Siming, and An Lushan is a fellow villager, he is cunning, fluent in the six languages, and An Lushan is important.

Longyou Jiedu made Ge Shuhan and An Lushan and An Sishun not get along, and Tang Xuanzong reconciled him and made him a brother. In the winter of the eleventh year of Tianbao, the three of them entered the court together, and Tang Xuanzong made Gao Lishi banquet in the east of the city. During the banquet, An Lushan said to Ge Shuhan: "My father is a Hu person, my mother is a Turk, your father is a Turk, your mother is a Hu person, and they are of the same race, why can't we go on a blind date?" Ge Shuhan said: "The ancients said that the fox howling at the cave is the most inauspicious, because it forgets its roots. If you can go on a blind date with me, how dare I not be unsatisfied! An Lushan thought that Ge Shuhan used the word "fox" to ridicule his Hu people, and immediately became furious, scolded Ge Shuhan and said: "You Turkic species dare to do this!" Ge Shuhan wanted to scold back, but Gao Lishi stopped him, but Ge Shuhan stopped, pretended to be drunk and dispersed, and the resentment became deeper and deeper.

In the blink of an eye, it is about to reach the twelfth year of Tianbao, Zhen Qian feels more and more that the pace of war is approaching, and he doesn't know what Tang Xuanzong thinks at this time, is the world really peaceful? Is it time for the knives and guns to be put into storage and the horses to be put in Nanshan?

An Lushan Fanhan rode 200,000 to attack the Khitan, didn't Tang Xuanzong have a trace of vigilance, 200,000 troops! Even 200,000 pigs can't be handed over to a single Hu person, this is no longer a matter of political consciousness, it is digging a self-grave!

Tang Xuanzong pursued a policy of guarding the enemy on the outside and light on the inside, the total number of border troops was about 500,000, more than seventy percent of the entire army in the Tang Dynasty, and the number of imperial forest troops in the capital at that time was less than 80,000, most of which were noble soldiers.
