王政君新论

The New Comment on Wang Zhengjun

王政君,向来被看作是一位愚庸无能、软弱寡断的皇后。但在西汉后期,朝政混乱,后宫倾轧不断,一个毫无心计的女人能够立足,又能把持朝政数十年而得以善终,除了长寿、幸运以及小心谨慎、温顺宽容的性格外,她高超的权术也不能被忽视,她在政治中的作为不乏一个政治家应有的智慧。同时,庞大有力的王氏家族给予她的支持与配合,也是她能长期执政,并且在失势时得以保全的一个必不可少的因素。

Wang Zhengjun has always been conceived as a talentless empress who has no political ambition. But in the evening of Xi Han dynasty, the politics is disordered. How can an unsophisticated woman subsist leisurely and how can she attend to state affairs for severed decades. Besides longevity , luck and the character, good-tempered is more important. She has all the wisdom which is necessary for an excellent politician. The support of her family is also a significant reason.
