Li Zhaode
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Li Zhaode (李昭德) (died April 28, 697[1]) was a Chinese politician in Wu Zetian's Zhou Dynasty and at one point served as chancellor. He was known for his abilities and strong will, which eventually led to a conflict with Wu Zetian's secret police official Lai Junchen. Li Zhaode was executed via decapitation on the same day as Lai, who was in turn accused by others of treason.
