Tang Taizong's killing of Wu Zetian did not mean that there would be no female emperor in the Tang Dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, the status of women was relatively high, and women's participation in political, military, and social affairs was also relatively common. Therefore, even if Wu Zetian was killed, there was still the possibility of other female leaders in the Tang Dynasty.
First, the status of women and the extent of their participation in politics during the Tang Dynasty were influenced by historical context and cultural traditions. Before the Tang Dynasty, there were female emperors in both the Northern Wei and Northern Zhou dynasties in Chinese history, indicating that women had a certain status and influence in the political field. In addition, the cultural atmosphere during the Tang Dynasty was also relatively open, and women's participation in cultural, artistic, and academic fields was also common.
Second, female leaders during the Tang Dynasty were not unprecedented. For example, Princess Taiping, Princess An Le, and others were all famous female leaders during the Tang Dynasty. Princess Taiping was the daughter of Tang Gaozong, and she had a certain amount of power and influence in politics, and had participated in the deposition of Empress Wei and the establishment of Tang Ruizong. Princess An Le is the daughter of Tang Zhongzong, she is married to Wu Sansi's son, has a certain political background and influence, and has also tried to interfere in political affairs.
Finally, even if Wu Zetian is killed, there is no guarantee that there will be no female emperor in the Tang Dynasty. Because the emergence of a female emperor requires certain political and social conditions, and these conditions are influenced by a variety of factors. For example, if there was political turmoil, invasion, or invasion during the Tang Dynasty, there might be other female leaders to lead the country toward stability and development. In addition, if the emperor of the Tang Dynasty had problems such as accidents or genetic diseases, other female leaders could also emerge to fill the power vacuum.
To sum up, Tang Taizong's killing of Wu Zetian does not mean that there will be no female emperor in the Tang Dynasty. Women had a certain status and influence during the Tang Dynasty, and the emergence of female leaders also required certain political and social conditions. Therefore, it is not possible to avoid the appearance of other female leaders simply by killing one female leader.
