Other notable events during Daizong's reign included a plot by a corrupt eunuch name Li Fuguo to gain control of the administration by murdering Daizong's stepmother. Later on, Li tried to confine Daizong to the palace while he attended to affairs of state. Daizong realized Li's motives and staged a comeback by having Li assassinated along with numerous other corrupt eunuchs. Daizong was a deep believer of Buddhism and he spent huge sums of money on building temples and shrines. Later this would prove to be a financial burden for the empire and hastened the decline of the dynasty.
