Abstract
On the basis of rethinking the tolerant policies of Dali(大历)and Zhenyuan(贞元)reigns,the emperor and officials of Yuanhe Reign used the law to purge the military governors,reformed the bad governance,and opened the"Zhongxing"(中兴)Prosperity.With the effect of military action and a series of policies to revitalize the central government and suppress military governors,the content of Emperor Xianzong's"Zhongxing"gradually enriched and finally shaped the political image of"Wangdao Zhongxing"(王道中兴).There are two meanings about"Zhongxing":"Wangdao Zhongxing",which emphasized the revival after the decline under the premise that the dynasty was not interrupted."Wangye Zhongxin"(王业中兴),which emphasized the reconstruction after the dynasty was interrupted.However,the emperor's"Zhongxing"of the Tang Dynasty mainly referred to the"Wangye Zhongxing"and was revolutionary before the Yuanhe period.Emperor Xianzong and his officials proposed to combine virtue with their ancestors,traced back to Zhenguan(贞观)and Kaiyuan(开元)reign,and completed the career that the emperors before Xianzong had not achieved since the Anshi Rebellion.Meanwhile the discourse of"Zhongzong Zhongxing"(中宗中 兴)was rejected in politics.Therefore the discourse of"Yuanhe Zhongxing"(元和中 兴)implied that Emperor Xianzong was the first person of"Zhongxing"in the Tang Dynasty,and"Wangdao Zhongxing"had gradually developed into a political discourse alongside"Wangye Zhongxing".
