Why did Wu Zetian return the world to the Li family?

Because Wu Zetian was married to the Li family at that time, according to the ancients, Wu Zetian actually belonged to the Li family, which was one of the opinions that the emperor advised Wu Zetian to return to the Li family at that time.

There is Wu Zetian. She was actually abdicated by her sons Li Xian, Li Dan and Zhang Jianzhi under the pressure of the Dragon Revolution in 705, so Wu Zetian was not particularly willing to give the throne back to the Li family. She is actually the Li family who took the throne back. Although Wu Zetian became emperor, her throne was actually snatched from the hands of the Li family, so under the influence of her thoughts at that time, Wu Zetian actually had the idea of returning it to your family, so that she could keep her reputation and complete it successfully, and also saved Wu Zetian's Wu family from being killed.

At that time, Wu Zetian's sons were all surnamed Li, and her grandson was also surnamed Li, so she wouldn't pass the throne to her nephew even for the sake of future generations' views, so it was Wu Zetian's best choice to return the throne to the Li family, which is also the reason why Wu Zetian returned the world to the Li family after her death.

Wu Zetian set up a monument to herself after her death and didn't want to judge herself too much. There are many reasons for setting up a monument without words. There is a saying that Wu Zetian wants future generations to evaluate her, and some people say that it is because Wu Zetian feels guilty and has no reason to praise herself, so Wu Zetian set up a tablet without words, but on the whole, it was the general trend at that time, and it was also the best for Wu Zetian to return the world to the Li family.
