How did Wu Zetian spend her later years after the Shenlong Coup

How did Wu Zetian spend her later years after the Shenlong Coup? Interested readers and history encyclopedia editors, let’s take a look together!
In Wu Zetian’s later years, Prime Minister Zhang Jianzhi and a group of pro Tang officials launched the Divine Dragon Coup, forcing Wu Zetian to give way to Crown Prince Li Xian and restore the Li Tang artifact. So how did Wu Zetian live after abdicating? Although Wu Zetian stepped down and lost power, her son took over as the successor. Li Xian was already a bit weak and incompetent, so she treated her own mother well. But after all, it was not her own initiative to abdicate, so Wu Zetian’s heart was naturally very depressed and she was not happy, but she didn’t have to consider safety issues, at least she didn’t have to live in fear like Li Yuan.
Wu Zetian was a empress who had been determined to wield great power since her reign. Her ambitions were very ambitious, and she was not willing to be an honest empress dowager. Originally, his son had already taken over the job, but she foolishly deposed her own son and became the emperor herself.
Objectively speaking, Empress Wu Zetian had a set of skills when it came to being an emperor. She was diligent in government affairs, observant and good at making decisions, selecting capable individuals, and taking the Tang Dynasty to the next level, which was better than many emperors. But she is really cruel, especially in her treatment of political enemies.
She had originally planned to pass on the throne to members of the Wu family, but she was also very hesitant because it was her first time. Being emperor was her first time, and passing on the throne was also her first time. There was nothing unreasonable about passing on the throne to her own family, but the courtiers were unwilling. They thought that you could just mess around alone and pass on the throne to the Li family.
Especially some pro Tang officials who strongly oppose it. So Wu Zetian reluctantly brought back the deposed Li Xian and made him the crown prince.
But the members of the Wu family are unwilling and are determined to fight for the position of crown prince. But in her later years, Wu Zetian became confused and sick. She favored Er Zhang and allowed them to do whatever they wanted. The situation was still very complicated.
So Zhang Jianzhi and a group of Tang loyalists launched the Shenlong Coup, forcing Wu Zetian to restore the Li Tang artifact, while Wu Zetian abdicated in confusion.
Wu Zetian, who had retired, lived in the Shangyang Palace. She was very depressed, so she stopped dressing up and looked very haggard. It can be seen that she is very angry inside, which is understandable, after all, she was forced to retreat.
But fortunately, his son Li Xian treats her well and often visits her. But Wu Zetian kept telling him from time to time that he was supposed to take over, while Zhang Jianzhi and others staged a coup and believed they were the Five Thieves, which shows that Wu Zetian was very angry with these five people.
Li Xian was also unhappy in his heart, holding onto such a hat, so he did not exterminate all members of the Wu family, and even some people were still holding official positions, such as Wu Sansi who became prime minister.
But Wu Zetian ended up depressed in less than a few months, which may be her best home.
