Chapter 466
The tenth place on the list of the top ten great emperors is Song Renzong Zhao Zhen, which was expected by Wang Mang, and it was also unexpected.
He really felt that with Zhao Zhen's situation, he could be on the list, but he didn't expect it to be the last one.
"It seems that the ones in front of you are better than the other!" Wang Mang shook his head and sighed.
It is worth mentioning that the reward this time is not welfare, but grain, grass and war horses, which makes Wang Mang feel a lot more relieved.
As long as it's not a talisman, everything else is easy to say!

"Reward: 200,000 grain and grass, 100,000 war horses!"
Wu Zetian (624 A.D.-705 A.D.), known as Wu Cao, was born in Chang'an in Wenshui County, Bingzhou.
Wu Zetian was born in the family of the eunuch, and was born beautiful and intelligent. At that time, the emperor Tang Gaozong was sick, and Wu Zetian used a strategy to depose the queen at that time, established himself as the queen, and began to participate in court politics. After the death of Tang Gaozong, Wu Zetian deposed the second emperor of Zhongzong Ruizong, changed the name of the country to Zhou, and established himself as the emperor, becoming the only female emperor in Chinese history.
After Wu Zetian became the emperor, he opened the imperial examination and made an exception; rewarding agriculture and mulberry and developing the economy; Knowing people well, allowing people to accept advice, in charge of the government for nearly half a century, social stability, economic development, the rule of Zhenguan, and the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, laid a solid foundation for the arrival of the greatest prosperous era in ancient Chinese history. History called the period when Wu Zetian was in power as "Zhenguan Legacy".
For Wu Zetian, since the Tang Dynasty, there have always been various evaluations, and the angles are also different.
In the early Tang Dynasty, because all the emperors were her direct descendants, and Confucian orthodoxy had not yet fully dominated, the evaluation of Wu Zetian at that time was relatively positive. However, as time passed, especially the "Zizhi Tongjian" edited by Sima Guang, the Wu family was severely criticized.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, Cheng Zhu Lixue occupied a dominant position in Chinese thought, and the public opinion of the light woman determined the evaluation of Wu Zetian. For example, in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the famous thinker Wang Fuzhi once commented that Wu Zetian "is not tolerated by ghosts and gods, and the subjects are resentful".
However, it is undeniable that the Empress Wu is good at governing the country, attaches importance to recruiting talents, pioneers the "palace examination" system of the imperial examination, and knows people well, and can reuse Di Renjie, Zhang Cambodia, Huan Yanfan, Jinghui, Yao Chong and other Zhongxing celebrities. During the reign of Wu Zetian, the country had a stable policy, a proper military strategy, a cultural revival, and a prosperous people, so it had the reputation of "Zhenguan Legacy", and also laid the foundation for the long-term stability of the reign of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and Wu Zetian made great contributions to history.
"The eighth place on the list of the top ten great emperors - star emperor: Qing Shengzu Kangxi (dead country, belonging to the Dahua Dynasty!)

Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, succeeded to the throne at the age of 8, pro-government at the age of 14, and reigned for 61 years, making him the longest-reigning emperor in Chinese history. Kangxi has been tireless in learning and resolute since he was a child. He was still a child when he put on the dragon robe, and his ancestors did not give him a unified country. Anti-Qing forces and separatist activities came from all directions.
The young emperor, who was in power at the age of 14, got rid of the auxiliary ministers who pressed on his head at the age of 16, and since then he has been in power alone. At the age of 20, he faced the rebellion of the three feudatories led by Wu Sangui, and after years of fighting, he pacified the three feudatories, unified Mongolia, recovered Taiwan, rejected Tsarist Russia in the north, and maintained the unity.

"Reward: 400,000 grains and grass, 200,000 war horses!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born as a commoner, led a peasant rebel army to overthrow the rule of the Yuan Dynasty and unify the country. After that, it strengthened the centralization of power, stabilized the political situation, adjusted the relations of production, and resumed the development of the economy, laying a solid foundation for the development of the Ming Dynasty.
The set of rules and regulations he formulated also provided the necessary guarantee for the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, and was mostly inherited by the Qing Dynasty, which had a profound impact on the subsequent historical development. Zhu Yuanzhang's historical merits far surpassed those of the founding emperors of the new dynasty after the previous peasant wars in his country.
He ended the domination of Chinese culture by foreign races, and that alone was enough to put him on the list!

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty Liu Heng (202 BC-157 BC) was the fourth emperor of the Han Dynasty, the third son of Gaozu Liu Bang, the younger brother of Emperor Hui Liu Ying, and his mother Bo Ji. After the death of Emperor Hui, Empress Lu established an unorthodox young emperor. Empress Lü died, and Lü Chan and Lü Lu attempted to launch a coup d'état to seize the throne. Liu Heng, with the support of Zhou Bo and Chen Ping, annihilated the Zhulu forces and ascended to the throne of the emperor as Emperor Wen, who reigned for 23 years.
The reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was a transitional period from the initial state to the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. He continued to implement a policy of rest with the people and a policy of lightly dispensing with the poor. He twice reduced the land rent to 30 taxes and even exempted the national land tax for 12 years, greatly reducing the burden on the peasants. He also personally cultivated and set an example in the world, which played a positive role in promoting the rapid recovery and development of agricultural production at that time.
In order to strengthen the centralization of power, he gradually weakened the power of the princes. At that time, the princes and kings held the political and economic power in the feudal country, which posed a serious threat to the unity of the country and the consolidation of the central power. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty successively smashed the rebellion of Liu Xingju and Liu Chang, and accepted Jia Yi's proposal to divide the big princes, maintaining the unity of the country.
He also properly handled the relations between the Han Dynasty and Nanyue and the Xiongnu, implemented a policy of appeasement to Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, and continued to implement a policy of peace and proximity to the Xiongnu, while strengthening the strength of the border defense. The Xiongnu invaded the Han border three times, but he sent troops to fight back in time and drove them out of the Saiwai.
On the basis of Gaozu, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty further abolished some harsh laws such as corporal punishment and slander and fallacy. He implemented the policy of probation in prison and the prohibition of the law, and took the lead in enforcing legal judgments, which is rare and commendable as a feudal monarch.
He knew people well, humbly accepted advice, promoted and reused Jia Yi, Huang Cuo, Zhang Shizhi, Zhou Yafu and other talents, and created a prosperous situation in the prosperous era of Wenjing.

He brought a nation to extinction, he allowed a civilization to perpetuate, he miraculously reunited a nation that was no longer a state, and he laid the foundation for the prosperity of a nation. He is the great emperor in Chinese history - Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian.
After the fall of the Han Dynasty, the young Han people were caught in the chaos of three and a half centuries of war. By the time of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Han nationality had been depressed after a long war, and it was no longer the Han people who dominated the land of China, but the people who were called barbarians by the Han people.
Because the Han people were no longer able to fight, most of the strong young men died in battle, and the rest were mostly old, weak, sick and disabled. The Han Chinese were no longer able to stop the invasion. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, various barbarian tribes invaded the Central Plains in large numbers and established their own states on Chinese soil. The number is already more than the Han Chinese. The invaders have taken over, and history is known as the Five Chaos of China.
At this time, a shining name appeared in the darkest history of China, a great emperor of a generation - Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of Sui. Yang Jian succeeded in usurping the most powerful Hu regime in China at that time at the most dangerous moment when the Han people were facing extermination, and established the Sui Dynasty.
The Hu rulers were extremely repulsive to the Han Chinese and were keen on Huhua. Yang Jian's ancestors were given the surname Hu for their meritorious service to the Hu people, and after Yang Jian usurped the throne, he immediately restored his Han surname, stopped the trend of Hu in military and political circles, and practiced Sinicization. Emperor Wen of Sui advocated frugality, diligent administration of government affairs, and implemented a policy of leniency and benevolence to the people, realizing a smooth transition from the Hu regime to the Han regime.
Through a series of reforms, Yang Jian significantly increased the population, gradually enriched food and clothing, strengthened the national strength, and finally regained the strength of the Han nationality. Emperor Wen of Sui led this strong national force to conquer all ethnic barbarians, so that China returned to the era of peace, and completed an almost impossible feat, known as the "rule of the emperor" in history.
Yang Jian was killed before, but now he has been summoned by Li Shimin, and he belongs to the Tang Dynasty!

The strong national strength and open and inclusive mentality he forged enabled a nation to win unprecedented respect from foreign races. He is the greatest all-round emperor in Chinese history - Tang Taizong Li Shimin.
After years of war, the livelihood of the Tang Dynasty in the early days of Zhenguan was withered, and a hundred ruins were waiting to be rebuilt, and Li Shimin, who was only 29 years old, had political foresight and sagacity, and chose the road of peaceful construction for the country.
He carried out a series of enlightened statecraft, unswervingly focused his governance on supporting and promoting agriculture, boldly cut officials and reassured the people, selected talents without sticking to one pattern, and humbly accepted advice, so that the Tang Dynasty embarked on a road of rapid development, and a picture of prosperity depicted with blood and sweat began to show in the vast land of China, which was once full of disasters and difficulties.
With his extraordinary leadership, Tang Taizong controlled the Chinese talents with extraordinary wisdom and strategy, achieved the perfect combination of governing the country and governing the people, and made extraordinary achievements in cultural governance and martial arts, and was recognized by historians as the most effective emperor in ancient China, and became a model for the emperors of China and even the world.

His name became the eternal name of a great nation. He was a true Emperor of Shengwu in Chinese history. He is the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty - Liu Che.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a truly great king who inherited the past and opened up the world. In the history before him, he has achieved unparalleled martial arts. His imagination and ingenuity made political struggles an art. His contingencies and cunning made the wise men of his time look like fools. He has a broad mind, both tolerant and connoisseurship.
He pioneered the system, established the scale, admired scholarship, and loved literary talent. He advocated the establishment of the country by virtue and the rule of law. He is a self-confident, thoughtful, independent thinker, and a promising monarch with absolute power, a majestic emperor, and a model for hundreds of emperors. His achievements and deeds have also been deeply integrated into the history and traditions of our nation.
For the first time, he laid the foundation for China's vast territory. The government of China began with Qin Shi Huang, and the state of China began with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has a great strategy that transcends history, and his martial arts achievements are enough to overshadow the kings of the world such as Alexander and Napoleon in the West. In Chinese history, there is no shortage of heroes, great men and saints. However, placed in any crowd, he will be equally striking. It is impossible for anyone not to admire him, and it is impossible not to be afraid of him - this is the Emperor Wu of Han.

"The first place in the list of the top ten great emperors - Qianqiu Foundation: Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng (Great Qin Dynasty!)
"Reward: 2 million grain and grass, 500,000 war horses!"
He conformed to the trend of the times, put an end to the centuries-long situation of separation, realized the great unification of the Chinese nation, and made groundbreaking contributions to the development of China's feudal society; He brought China into the era of centralized imperial power, he was the founder of China's first unified empire, and he was China's first feudal emperor, Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng.
Although his empire collapsed in an instant, the feudal empire he created lasted for more than two thousand years. More than 2,000 years have passed, the long river of history has washed away, everything in the world has long been wrong, only the majestic Great Wall is still quietly winding in the north of China, telling the world thousands of years of vicissitudes.
Perhaps Qin Shi Huang would not have imagined that his life would have a profound impact on China's thousands of years of history, nor would he have imagined that the controversy over himself would continue for thousands of years, but he instilled the concept of a world in the world through his own eloquence.
From that moment on, the idea that "the whole world is not the king's land" began to take root in the hearts of the people, and a unified and powerful nation has since stood tall in the east of the world, and has been shining brilliantly to the world for more than 2,000 years to come. The foundation of the first emperor is in the future.
