Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yang Guozhong was an official of the Chinese dynasty Tang Dynasty, serving as a chancellor late in the reign of Emperor Xuanzong. His second cousin Consort Yang Yuhuan was Emperor Xuanzong''s favorite concubine, and he gained Emperor Xuanzong''s favor through her. He was considered a gambler and a wastrel, but keen with the political scene, although not competent to be a chancellor. His conflict with An Lushan, also a favorite official of Emperor Xuanzong''s, eventually drove An into rebellion (known as the Anshi Rebellion). His gross military miscalculation then permitted the latter to capture the imperial capital Chang''an. Emperor Xuanzong was forced to flee, and while in flight, Yang Guozhong, Consort Yang, and many of the Yang family were killed by the angry soldiers escorting Emperor Xuanzong because the army attributed the chaos to them.
