Summary

The eunuch politics of the Tang Dynasty is unimaginable.
After the mid-Tang Dynasty, eunuchs often split into two or more factions, engaged in relentless fighting and murder. This was determined by the system of power division and influenced by the national conditions where military officials were distrusted in causing chaos. However, when it came to controlling the emperor, manipulating military and political affairs, and undermining the power of the prime minister, the eunuchs remained highly united. Their power was even inherited through generations, forming a complex and intertwined group. This posed a serious dilemma for the Tang Dynasty eunuchs: if they lost power, they would lose everything.
Therefore, in times of crisis, eunuchs needed to ensure the continuation of imperial power and maintain their family's vested rights. Conversely, faced with separatist regimes, frequent rebellions, and a precarious state, the rulers also relied on eunuchs for self-preservation. This unnatural relationship further emboldened the eunuchs' arrogance. Overall, their power grew inversely proportional to the decline of the Tang Dynasty, and their brutality reached its peak in the late Tang Dynasty.
The failed coup on the night of September 15, the second year of the Dashun era, made the new rulers realize that when the ministers are too numerous, the ruler will be exhausted.
