I have a test where I am given the following article, what is an answer for the question: What is the specific foreign policy that ultimately created the conditions for a massive rebellion against Xuanzong? ?

There were many prominent women at court during and after Wu's reign, including Shangguan Wan'er (664–710), a poet, writer, and trusted official in charge of Wu's private office. In 706 the wife of Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, Empress Wei (d. 710), persuaded her husband to staff government offices with his sister and her daughters, and in 709 requested that he grant women the right to bequeath hereditary privileges to their sons (which before was a male right only).

After 737 most of Xuanzong's confidence rested in his long-standing chancellor Li Linfu, who championed a more...
