Há 1.398 anos, em 04/09/626, Taizong assumia o trono da China. Segundo governante da Dinastia Tang, Taizong reorganizou o império chinês a partir de uma ampla reforma institucional baseada nas ideias de Confúcio. Seu reinado marcou o início da Era de Ouro chinesa.

Some may already realize the connection between Jingyuan's Eidolons and Li Shimin(Emperor Taizong of Tang). It's an interesting coincidence that historical records indicate that Empress Changsun, Li Shimin's wife, was also a devoted reader who always had a book on hand.

[TANG TAIZONG]: "Please just ignore Prince Changqian over there playing with his goats next to his personal yurt. It's... uh... Tujue cosplay?
Anyways, let me direct your attention over to our *extremely* authentic family tree... tracing us Lis all the way back to Laozi himself! Imagine that!"

@thoc.bsky.social really do want to write a parody complaining the Tang is a "foreign Turkic colonial power" and not a legitimate Huaxia dynasty carrying the proud tradition of the YELLOW EMPEROR.

[CONFUCIAN OFFICIAL] <squinting skeptically at the House of Li’s pure genealogy back to Laozi himself>: “… and, what of Prince Chengqian?”

I think about the number of weirdo Chinese nationalists on Reddit I come across who rail angrily against any suggestion the Tang were not the purest Hans who ever Hanned, and this trio of paragraphs would probably give them a collective aneurysm.

Avevo 13 anni, forse 14, quando entrai nel gineceo di Tai Zong come «concubina di talento».
Tranquilli, era uno dei gradi più bassi.
Ero nata nel 624 nell’odierna provincia di Shanxi, figlia di un piccolo funzionario militare, molto stimato dall’imperatore Taizong

Also, the live crickets thing is hilarious if you know about Chinese history (Emperor Taizong of Tang ate live locusts in front of his court to troll his ministers once)

The Penn Museum had an exhibit upstairs in a beautiful dome room which purported to be about Buddhism but which was largely about cool animal sculptures from the Tang dynasty? eg these two tomb portraits of an emperor’s favorite horses.

Are you in a discord that routinely refers to the Taizong Emperor as Li Fuckin' Shimin and has a custom emoji of him, or does your life lack spice?

Although he placed his own father under house arrest and exterminated the families of his older and younger brothers, he established the Rule of Zhenguan and ushered in an era of peace and prosperity – Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin

This might be a teeny-weeny oversimplification, but the standard histories of all major Chinese dynasties invariably seem to depict a second founder (Han: Wendi; Tang/Song: Taizong; Ming: Yongle; Qing: Kangxi) who then tries to "out-Confucian" or "out-badass" the first guy.#文武

Despite the limitations, trade between these empires was lucrative, with Chinese silk highly coveted in Rome, while Roman glassware and high-quality cloth found their way to China. Artifacts like Roman coins have been unearthed at Chinese archaeological sites. (6/7)

It’s going to be doubly embarrassing, from an historical context, that America’s first (and hopefully last) Emperor is Donnie “Dollhands” Trump. I mean some other Empires had a Julius Caesar, or Napoleon, or Ramesses, or Cyrus, or Ashoka, or Taizong. We get a diaper-wearing pedo in orange makeup.
