Hsüan Tsung

No further explanation of his symptoms was then given him and his uncle Hsüan Tsung was raised to the throne.

In the long reign of Hsüan Tsung China waged a double warfare against the Arabs and Tibetans.

Letters, art and pageantry made the Court of Hsüan Tsung brilliant, but the splendour faded and his reign ended tragically in disaster and rebellion.

But like Hsüan Tsung he came to a tragic end, and in 1126 was carried into captivity by the Kin Tartars among whom he died.

And the la mei flower, 151; cure the Emperor Hsüan Tsung, 151; and the Spirit-boat, 151; subdue the demons of pestilence, 151.
