张昌宗
As of 701, in her old age, Wu Zetian had allowed her lovers [[Zhang Yizhi]] and [[Zhang Changzong]] to handle much of the affairs of state. Li Chongrun was not pleased with this state of affairs, and had discussed the issue with his sister [[Li Xianhui]] the Lady Yongtai and her husband Wu Yanji the Prince of Wei (Wu Zetian's grandnephew). This discussion was somehow leaked, and Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong complained to Wu Zetian. In anger, she ordered that the three of them be forced to commit suicide (or, possibly, be caned to death).
