À propos de cet audio

In the long history of China, only one woman ever ruled as emperor — Wu Zetian. She began as a low-ranking concubine, disappeared into the shadows of the palace, and then returned to rise higher than anyone imagined. Her story is filled with mystery, ambition, fear, and quiet power.

In this calm, sleep-ready history, we drift through:

  • Wu Zetian’s beginnings in the Tang Dynasty court

  • Her climb from concubine to empress consort

  • The hidden politics, betrayals, and whispered scandals

  • How she reshaped the empire while surrounded by rivals

  • The slow decline of her rule and the legacy she left behind

Told slowly and gently, this story isn’t about action or spectacle — but about the steady, strange path of a woman who changed history by refusing to stay silent. Perfect for late-night listening, letting the past unfold like a quiet dream.
