As the representatives of the ethnic northern minorities during the Wei,Jin,Southern and Northern Dynasties,the Zhangsun family played an important role in the political stage from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty.The development experience of the Zhangsun family was also closely related to the political relations of these dynasties.The Zhangsun clan not only represented the development of minorities during this period,but also reflected the development of dynasty politics during this period.Therefore,this article chooses the Zhangsun family from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty as the subject of a master's thesis in order to increase the understanding of the Zhangsun family and the understanding of the regime change from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty.The article is mainly divided into three parts: introduction,main content and conclusion.In the introduction,it mainly introduces the reason for choosing the topic and the significance of the topic ?the current research status?the content and method of the research?the innovation points and the lacks.The main content of the article is divided into five chapters.The first chapter introduces the basic overview of the Zhangsun family.The Zhangsun family belongs to the Xianbei Baba family.There are three main branches,namely the Zhangsunfei branch,the Zhangsunsong branch,and the ZhangsunDaosheng branch.The family is characterized by the advocacy of force and the imprisonment in charge of the palace from generation to generation.The second chapter examines the situation of the Zhangsun family in the early Northern Wei Dynasty.The family was very noble in the early Northern Wei Dynasty,not only holding important positions in the government,but also serving as the emperor's personal bodyguard for a long time.Its treatment is even higher than that of some famous and active families in Northern Wei.The honorable status of the Zhangsun family is related to their long-term surrender to the Northern Wei regime,and it is also related to their outstanding military achievements.The third chapter examines the situation of the Zhangsun family in the middle of the Northern Wei Dynasty.In the middle of the Northern Wei Dynasty,the situation of the Zhangsun family was much worse than before.Not only did the three major branches lack excellent successors,but the family status was no longer the most honorable of the Northern Wei Dynasty.This is because after entering the peaceful age,the family still only advocates force and does not understand the role of culture.The fourth chapter mainly investigates the situation of the Zhangsun family from the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty.During the period from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty,because the regime was constantly changing,the relationship between the Zhangsun family and the regimes at this time was also different.At the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty,the family was briefly revived,but it was marginalized during the Northern Zhou Dynasty and did not have a high status in the new “Guanlong Noble Group”.After entering the Sui Dynasty,the Zhangsun family was excluded.But at this time,the Zhangsun family was also constantly changing in the face of adversity,and the family gradually changed from advocating force to advocating culture.The last chapter describes the situation of the Zhangsun family in the early Tang Dynasty.Due to the continuous improvement of the Chinese level of the Zhangsun family,the close cooperation with the Tang dynasty was completed and transformed into a family of foreign relatives.Therefore,the Zhangsun family quickly entered the peak of the family in the early Tang Dynasty.However,due to the decline of the “Guanlong Noble Group”and the incomplete Chineseization of the family.Therefore,under the pressure of other forces headed by Wu Zetian,the Zhangsun family eventually failed and withdrew from the stage of history.The final part of the article is the conclusion.The trajectory of the rise and fall of the Zhangsun family and the relationship between the family and dynasty politics are summarized.It is believed that the family trajectory of the Zhangsun family reflects the development and evolution of the various dynasties and "Guanlong noble groups" at that time,and has a profound impact on China's historical process.
