钟绍京与唐隆政变关系研究

Analysis of Zhong Shaojing and Tanglong Coup

唐代长安城京苑总监钟绍京,因其管理的禁苑在宫城之北的重要地理位置、京苑总管的特殊职能,而被李隆基拉拢参与诛杀韦后集团的唐隆政变,事后被任命为中书侍郎,擢升为中书令、越国公,成为江南第一个宰相。出于巩固皇权的需要,又因钟绍京政治能力不足且非科举出身,钟绍京在不久之后即被外放出京,仕途可谓大起大落。

Zhong Shaojing,the Jinyuan chief inspector of the Capital of Chang＇ an of the Tang Dynasty,involved himself,roped in by Li Longji,in the Tanglong Coup to eradicate the clique of Empress Wei and succeeded. Afterwards,he was appointed the official title of Zhong Shu Shi Lang,and promoted Zhong Shu Ling,Yue Guo Gong the following day to become the first prime minister in origin of the south of the Yangtze River. However,because of his weak ability to rule the politics and had not been enrolled from imperial examinations,Zhong Shaojing was demoted to leave the capital and experienced great ups and downs in his official career.
