That was a tumultuous time in Chinese history. Parricides, filicides and fratricides were rampant. Hard to imagine…
IRL, after demoted, LYK become a local governor, but after sometime, the emperor demoted LYK to become a commoner, not an imperial prince again, after sometimes again.... the assassin from emperor, will kill LYK..... so, he died as commoner.....
1. The Xuanwu Gate Incident was a palace coup for the throne of the Tang dynasty on 2 July 626,[a] when Prince Li Shimin (Prince of Qin) and his followers assassinated Crown Prince Li Jiancheng and Prince Li Yuanji (Prince of Qi). Li Shimin, the second son of Emperor Gaozu, was in an intense rivalry with his elder brother Li Jiancheng and younger brother Li Yuanji. He took control and set up an ambush at Xuanwu Gate, the northern gate leading to the Palace City[b] of the imperial capital Chang'an. There, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were murdered by Li Shimin and his men. Within three days after the coup, Li Shimin was installed as the crown prince. Emperor Gaozu abdicated another sixty days later and passed the throne to Li Shimin, who would become known as Emperor Taizong.
2. In 630, Emperor Taizong sent his general Li Jing against the Eastern Turks, defeating and capturing their Jiali Khan Ashina Duobi and destroying their power. This made Tang the dominant power in East and Central Asia, and Emperor Taizong subsequently took the title of Tengeri Qaghan (Chinese: 天可汗; pinyin: Tiān Kěhán; Wade–Giles: T'ien K'ehan, "Tenger Khan" or the God like Emperor).[7] He also launched a series of campaigns against the oasis states of the Tarim Basin, and against the armies of their main ally, the Western Turks. During his reign, Tang armies annexed Karakhoja in 640, Karasahr in 644 and Kucha in 648.[8] Eventually, the Tang defeated and annexed the Western Gokturk khaganate after Su Dingfang defeated Qaghan Ashina Helu in 657.
3. Ishbara Khagan (Old Turkic: ????????, Ϊšbara qaγan, Chinese: 沙缽略可汗/沙钵略可汗; pinyin: shābōlüè kěhàn, personal name Ashina Helu Chinese: 阿史那賀魯/阿史那贺鲁; pinyin: āshǐnà hèlǔ - ) (ruled 651–658) was the last khagan of the Western Turkic Khaganate.
4. After being captured he reportedly told Xiao Siya:[9] I am a defeated slave. Former emperor (Taizong) supported me and awarded richly. Alas, I turned my back on him and rebelled. My defeat today is result of Heaven's anger and punishment. What could I say! I heard according to Han customs, criminals are executed in capital. My wish is to die in Zhaoling and ask forgiveness from former emperor.
Emperor Gaozong spared him after 15 days and he lived out his days at the Tang capital Chang'an. He was buried near Illig Qaghan's memorial.
5. Emperor Gaozong of Tang (21 July 628[3] – 27 December 683[4]), personal name Li Zhi, was the third emperor of the Tang dynasty in China, ruling from 649 to 683 (although after January 665 Imperial powers was primarily in the hands of his powerful second wife Empress Wu, later known as Wu Zetian). Emperor Gaozong was the son of Emperor Taizong and Empress Zhangsun.
Emperor Gaozong was aided in his rule by Empress Wu during the later years of his reign after a series of strokes left him incapacitated. Emperor Gaozong delegated all matters of state to his Strong wife and Empress Wu is therefore unique in the annals of the Tang Empire for the political influence she wielded. After Emperor Gaozong died in 683, power fell completely and solely into the hands of Empress Wu, who subsequently became the only Empress regnant in Chinese history. After his death, he was interred at the Qianling Mausoleum along with Wu Zetian.
Historians have generally viewed Emperor Gaozong as a weak ruler, inattentive to the business of the state and leaving such business to his powerful wife Empress Wu. During the first part of his reign, Tang territorial gains, which started with his father Emperor Taizong, continued, including the conquest of Baekje, Goguryeo, and the Western Turkic Khaganate, but throughout the 670s, much of those gains were lost to the Tibetan Empire, Silla, Khitan, and Balhae. Further, territory previously conquered that belonged to both the Göktürks and the Western Turkic Khaganate were subjected to repeated rebellions.
=== > well, ashina sun (this drama tv series) = ashina helu (IRL).... ?? if that its true, so dont worry, he is still be alive in the end........... but, i hope, LCG still alive too in the end.... to happy ending together with ashina in changan, the capital city of tang dynasty..... ^^
Liu Yikang (劉義康) (409–451), nickname Chezi (車子), was an imperial prince of the Chinese dynasty Liu Song. He was a son of Emperor Wu (Liu Yu), and served as prime minister during the reign of his brother Emperor Wen. He was considered to be diligent and capable, but eventually became entangled in plots to have him succeed Emperor Wen, and he was removed from his post and eventually killed.
....
Liu Yikang was diligent in serving as prime minister for his brother, and particularly because Emperor Wen was often ill, Liu Yikang made many important decisions. The historian Shen Yue, in Song Shu, described Liu Yikang's service as prime minister as such:
Yikang liked executive work, and he was careful in both reading official submissions and examining plans. He took over all matters of the government and made decisions on his own, including matters of life and death. Whatever he opined would be accepted by the emperor, and provincial governors were all commissioned by him. His powers were such that everyone feared him. Yikang himself was also strong and diligent. There would often been hundreds of visitors' wagons outside his mansion each time, and he personally greeted the visitors, no matter how lowly they were. He was also more intelligent than others with excellent memory, and he remembered all he heard or read for the rest of his life.
.......
However, in 451, in the middle of a Northern Wei invasion, Emperor Wen became apprehensive that conspirators might again try to use Liu Yikang as a focal point. At further urging by Crown Prince Shao, Liu Jun the Prince of Wuling, and He Shangzhi (何尚之), Emperor Wen sent his official Yan Long (嚴龍) to order Liu Yikang to commit suicide. Liu Yikang refused—stating that Buddhism prohibited suicide, and requesting that Yan kill him. Yan therefore suffocated him with a blanket.
==== > well........IRL, LYK is never become the emperor of liu song dynasty.......the highest position he has, is only become both of prince regent and prime minister together, after that, emperor wen demoted him to become a local governor....
but, after that too, emperor wen (who is very suspicius to LYK), demoted him again to become a commoner, after that he order an assassin to kill that LYK...... so in the end, LYK is die as commoner, but its ironic, because his birthlife is was a prince in the imperial palace......... T_T
Again, blame it all to wen suyu, not wen sujin.... Because all trouble its begin with suyu, that selfish bitch,…
Sujin does not want to leave the palace, because she is still want to save suyu, until the end she just barely know that suyu does not want to leave....
I cannot believe they pulled such a frustrating story line for the ENTIRE drama. The lack of logic and communication…
Again, blame it all to wen suyu, not wen sujin.... Because all trouble its begin with suyu, that selfish bitch, she provoke and instigate sujin to running away from the married......

5. why u blamed all problem from yu feiyan to mujin only ?? u forget that hua jinxiu and song minglei wants to manipulated yu feiyan to attack and kill yuan feibai and yuan qiang jiang.... !!!
