武则天长期执政原因浅析

On the Causes of Empress WU Tse-tien′s Long Term in Power

在孔孟之道盛行的年代,作为一个女人,武则天能够从昭仪做到皇后、皇太后,进而登上女皇宝座,其主要原因是:以姿色、智谋夺得皇后位,构建起执政的平台;用铁腕剪除"反武派"势力,为实现自己目标扫清道路;网罗人才,形成以她为核心的"拥武"集团;舆论造势,终获成功;洛阳是武则天长期掌权并成就帝业最理想的根据地等。

As a woman living in the prime time of Confucius and Mencius′ doctrines,the reasons for WU Tse-tien to climb from a concubine to Empress,Empress Dowager,and at last to the throne of Empress could be summed up as these： by her beauty and wisdom,she seized the throne on which she could hold the reign of government;by her iron hand,she wiped out the power of the opposition party against her;by enlisting the talents around the country,she established a power group under her centralized leadership;by opinions and publicity buildups,she gained the final victory.Luoyang was the best place for her long term reign,the citadel to realize her ambition of becoming the Empress.
