It is said that Tang Taizong died, Wu Zetian, according to the example of the Tang harem, entered Chang'an Ganye Temple with some concubines without children, but she and the new emperor Li Zhi have been The lotus root is broken.
Yonghui In May of the second year (651), Tang Gaozong 's filial service was full, and Wu Zetian re-entered the palace. Before entering the palace, Wu Zetian was pregnant. After entering the palace, he gave birth to his son Li Hong . After Wu Zetian returned to the palace, he quickly defeated Xiao Shufei and was favored by Li Zhi. In May of the following year (652), he was worshipped as the second product Zhaoyi. She began her emperor's way.
However, her experience was staged in a later woman, but she did not have the heroic talent of Wu Zetian.
719 (the seventh year of Kaiyuan) on the first day of the sixth day of the lunar calendar, Yang Yuhuan was born in a family of eunuchs. The great grandfather Yang Wang was the Shangzhu Kingdom and the official book of the Sui Dynasty. He was held by Li Shimin in the early Tang Dynasty. Killed; father Yang Xuanyan, once served as a householder in Shuzhou; Yang Yuhuan spent his childhood in Shuzhou, and was fostered in Luoyang's third uncle Yang Xuangui's family due to his father's death.
Yang Yuhuan's natural beauty, coupled with a superior educational environment, enable her to have a certain degree of cultural accomplishment, a smooth personality, proficient in rhythm, good at singing and dancing, and good at playing the pipa. In Bai Juyi 's "Song of Everlasting Regret", it is described as: natural beauty is hard to abandon, and once elected to the side of the king.
In July 22nd of Kaiyuan, the daughter of Tang Xuanzong Princess Xianyi held a wedding in Luoyang,Yang Yuhuan was also invited to participate. The younger brother of Princess Xianyi, Shou Wang Li Hao, fell in love with Yang Yuhuan at first sight. Tang Xuanzong ordered her to be Shou Wang at the request of Wu Hui . After marriage, the two are very sweet.
Everything is because of AD 754 ( Tianbao four years) Zhonghe Festival (March 3 of the lunar calendar).
People who live in Chang'an City will all go out for a walk as long as it reaches the Zhonghe Festival. The most active in the crowd are the girls who rarely have the opportunity to go out shopping on weekdays. Du Fu 's poem "The weather will be new on March 3rd, Chang'an Waterside Dolly" is about this event.
When the love story of Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei began, it was already from the Kaiyuan period of the Datang to the Tianbao period, and it was in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.
During the Kaiyuan reign, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang dynasty tried his best to rule. In the early days of Tianbao, the society was prosperous. Take population growth as an example. During Wu Zetian’s period, the national population was 37.0 million ( Simaguang " Zizhi Tongjian"), and by the first year of Tianbao, the population of had reached 48.9 million (" Old Tang Dynasty"). Book ").
In addition, the agricultural output continued to grow during the Tianbao years, and the national grain reserves and per capita grain share have been greatly alleviated to a certain extent. According to " Tongdian ": Tang Tianbao eight years,"The total number of Masakura is four thousand two hundred and twelve thousand and six hundred and eighty-four shi... The total number of Yicang is 6,317,670 shi... The total number of Changping is 4.6 million. Two thousand two hundred and twenty stones". It can be seen that, theoretically speaking, the grain reserves in this period can guarantee the supply of rations for a certain period of time.
In addition, during the Tianbao years, the per capita food consumption reached 700 jin, and the food problem in Chang'an City was dealt with accordingly in the early years of Tianbao. Privately-run inns are very developed, and entertainment activities are also extremely rich. Du You's "Tong Dian" contains: In the thirteenth year of Kaiyuan, it appeared that "every store has a donkey, and it takes a passenger to take a ride. It is called a post donkey. The south is Jing, Xiang, the north is Taiyuan, Fanyang, the west As far as Shuzhou and Yefu, there are shops for supply. The types of entertainment activities include: horse dancing, cockfighting, polo and other activities.
However, under the prosperous scene of the Kaiyuan years, to a certain extent, there was a serious social crisis that was not easy to manifest. In other words, there was a "hidden danger" in their love story.
However, despite this, Tang Xuanzong's feelings for Concubine Yang are sincere and profound.
In other words, on the March 3rd Outing Day, Xuanzong Li Longji changed casual clothes, brought a few servants, and went out of the palace. He suddenly found a peerless beauty in the crowd and looked straight.
Seeing this scene, the accompanying Gao Lishi immediately called a little eunuch and ordered him to find out who the woman was.
The little eunuch finally found out that it was Princess Shou, Gao Lishi carefully reported the situation to Li Longji, but he still had a greedy expression like dementia.
Tang Xuanzong finally survived the night, and the next day he quietly summoned Gao Lishi in. Li Longji said: "The beauty that I met yesterday is so cute! It makes my heart so hard to throw away!" Gao Lishi had long known that the problem was with Yang Yuhuan. Hurry up and said: "Long live if you love the Yang family, but the minion can call in the palace for the long live master to meet."
Li Longji sighed: "What is the point of meeting each other, see this lovesickness? The disease is in the end!"
Actually,Gao Lishi didn't sleep all night. He was thinking about this problem. At this time, he was deliberately contemplative, and then grabbed a step, attached it to Xuanzong and said something in his ear. Xuanzong listened to it and praised it again and again: "Good idea! Good idea! Go ahead and do it quickly."
Li Longji's lovesickness is cured, and Yang Yuhuan has turned the Shouwang Mansion upside down. It turned out that Gao Lishi bought Yang Yuhuan’s two close-knit maids, and always persuaded Yang Yuhuan to enter the palace to be favored by Lord Long live. Yang Yuhuan had already enjoyed the glory of glory, and the love of the king of longevity. She was in the Huaqingchi palace. In the middle, seeing the emperor showing her infatuated look at her, she was touched by her tender heart without realizing it, and he was determined to fight the King of Shou.
According to Gao Lishi's idea: in October of the twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan (740), in the name of Emperor Xuanzong's mother, the Queen Mother Dou, prayed for blessings. After the transition, he was taken into the palace of Tang Xuanzong. Yang Taizhen 's name is derived from this.
In the fourth year of Tianbao (745), Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty registered Wei Zhaoxun’s daughter as the princess of longevity, and then registered Yang Yuhuan as the imperial concubine. Xuanzong abolished the queen of and was not a queen, so Yang Guifei was equivalent to Queen.
If it is said that before Yang Yuhuan entered the palace, Tang Xuanzong's focus was mainly on her peerless appearance, then less than a year after Yang Yuhuan entered the palace, the courtesy and status given to her by Xuanzong has already been able to match the concubine Wu Hui who passed away soon. She stood shoulder-to-shoulder, and later registered her as a noble concubine. She was very fond of her.
Actually, Concubine Yang can be favored by Xuanzong. In addition to her beauty, it is also because Tang and Yang have the same hobbies, that is, they are both very accomplished people in singing and dancing. "Old Tang Book" contains: Yang Yuhuan "has rich aptitude, good singing and dancing, melody, excellent quality". It coincides with Xuanzong's natural romantic love of singing and dancing. It can be seen that in addition to love between Concubine Yang and Xuanzong Tang, they also regarded each other as close friends.
In addition,Concubine Yang's delicate and thoughtful character is also a favorite of Xuanzong. Later scholars believed that Yang Yuhuan should not recognize Anlushan as a righteous son. However, from another perspective, this move is also a means for Concubine Yang to win over the hearts of Xuanzong.
If the two are ordinary people, there will be love sparks. After Yang Yuhuan entered the palace and became a noble concubine, he was expelled from the palace twice by Xuanzong, but in the end both ended up with Xuanzong's recall. After that, the relationship between the two became stronger.
As the saying goes, emperors rarely have love, but Tang Xuanzong showed sincere feelings between mortal couples towards Yang Yuhuan. The beauty of Li Yang's love also lies here, but in the end it ended in tragedy, which made people sigh.
