Wu Zetian is the only female monarch in Chinese history.In order to consolidate her dominance,Wu Zetian attached importance to the construction of the regime’s rationality,authority,and sacredness,and focused on the construction of the national suburban sacrifice system.With the help of the construction and reform of the suburban sacrifice system,by declaring its destiny,it has achieved the construction of the rationality,authority,and sacredness of the political power,and has greatly influenced the country ’s suburban sacrifice system in later generations.As a part of the country’s suburban sacrificial system,the song of the sacrificial sacrifices during the Wuzhou period played an active role in this process.This topic has important research value.The full text includes four chapters.The first chapter discusses the various dilemmas facing the construction of Wu Zhou regime.First of all,ancient society was founded on the traditional ethics of Confucianism,and pursued the "yin and yang heaven" and "men are superior to women." The Emperor Wu Zetian broke the male tradition of feudal politics in ancient times,and was directly criticized as the "pheasant Sichen",under the tremendous pressure of traditional ideas.Secondly,Wu Zetian’s mother,son,and tang dynasty were used as the week,which violated ethical principles and was under tremendous real human pressure.Thirdly,Wu Zetian’s support for the emerging Dai forces changed the existing political structure,the privileges of the Guanlong nobles were weakened,and the dispute over the interests of the nobles and Dais also became a dilemma facing Wu Zetian’s construction regime.The second chapter discusses the key points of the reform of suburban worship during the Wu Zhou period.The construction of suburban worship during the Wuzhou period emphasized the heavenly path.First of all,Wu Zetian emphasized the role of "sky" in the suburban ritual through the establishment of the subject and matching ritual of the sacrifice,the closure of the Buddhist ritual,and the reform of the Tai Temple,highlighting the rationality and sacredness of the regime.Thirdly,the reform of suburban sacrifice focused on "Wu Ming Ming Tang" and further strengthened thesanctity of the regime.Once again,Yale was restructured,creating the "Twelve Harmonies" of the week,reusing Sui Dynasty literary and martial arts,and personally performing music,dance,and singing,and using ritual music to strengthen the authority of the regime.The third chapter sorts out the song and phrase innovation in the construction of the worship system in Wu Zhou suburbs.In terms of content,the suburban temple chants made during the Wu Zhou period emphasized that Wu Zetian was ordered to be legal by Heaven and Emperor,and that he used the image of auspicious auspiciousness,fu fu,etc.as the argument of Wu Zetian’s "meaning of heaven".Institutionally,it reflects the two trends of retro and innovation in the development of literature.On the one hand,the suburban temple songs during the Wu Zhou period inherited the solemnity and elegance of the "Ode to Songs" in the Book of Songs;on the other hand,they were influenced by factors such as the formalization of Tang poetry and Wu Zetian’s personal preferences.The ground appeared in the form of eight words.The fourth chapter summarizes the influence of the sacrifice and song construction during the Wu Zhou period.First of all,the sacrifice and song restructuring of the Wu Zhou period made the legitimacy and sacredness of the Wu Zhou regime deeply rooted in the hearts of the people,and played a role in maintaining social stability,uniting people’s hearts,and consolidating political power.Secondly,the reorganization of Wu Zhou had a positive impact on the Great Tang Kaiyuan Li.After Tang Xuanzong took power,he inherited the essence of the sacrifice system construction during the Wu Zhou period,laying a solid foundation for strengthening monarchy and centralization.
