The first generation of queen Wu Zetian . As the concubine of two generations of emperors, the romantic affairs about her are also widely circulated. Everyone is puzzled that she is not only favored by Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty Li Zhi, and from then on the road to becoming emperor.
What aroused even more suspicion is that as the concubine of Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin , she has been around for about 12 years . Why has she never given birth to Li Shimin's child in this
After following Li Zhi, Wu Zetian gave birth to four sons and two daughters . What's going on?
Wu Zetian was selected into the palace
This starts with Wu Zetian entering the palace. Wu Ze has a beautiful and beautiful appearance in the sky, and a graceful figure. Among the women who have not yet reached the hood, there is a lotus from the water, and the only one is beautiful.
When Li Shimin was visiting Luoyang Palace , he heard about Wu Zetian's beauty and summoned him into the palace. was named as a talented person , and was also specially given the title " Wu Mei " . Therefore, some people call him " Wu Mei Niang " .
Wu Zetian has been bold and careful . She is not as weak as ordinary women, and she will only cry when encountering problems.
Just like his mother, Yang, she kept crying before Wu Zetian entered the palace, regretting that her daughter had to go to the palace to serve the emperor when she was young, and she was very reluctant to leave.
Wu Zetian said when saying goodbye to Yang: "This is the place to enter the palace to serve as a son today. It is not a kind of honor. How can you know that it will be a blessing or a disaster in the future. Mother, don't cry again, your daughter will definitely achieve something."
But in history, there are very few records about Wu Zetian in the harem during Li Shimin's reign. , and the only ones are left by Wu Zetian's memories in his later years.
According to her recollection, at that time, Li Shimin got a famous horse named Lion detection . The horse is as fierce as its name, and it is difficult to tame.
The palace is full of horse-training masters, but they are unable to subdue them. At this time, Wu Zetian, who served by Li Shimin, dared to tell Li Shimin that she could tame the lion.
Wu Zetian said:
"To subdue it, there must be three things, namely iron whip, iron rod and dagger. If it is beaten with an iron whip, it is still not tamed, so it will be hit with an iron rod. If it is still not convinced, then use a dagger to cut its throat."
After hearing this, Li Shimin praised Wu Zetian as a strange woman and had extraordinary courage. Although Li Shimin praised Wu Zetian, she has never been favored by Li Shimin.
concubine hierarchy
Wu Zetian was a fifth-rank talent when she first entered the palace, and this talent is the position of , and she was for twelve years.
Wu Zetian's twelve years as Li Shimin's concubine, her fifth-rank talent belongs to the lower level.
Why did Wu Zetian be talented and beautiful , but he was never favored by Li Shimin, so that in the past twelve years, Wu Zetian never gave birth to a son?
No fertility problem
All of this is closely related to Li Shimin's concubines in the harem. Even if it was evenly affected by rain and dew, Wu Zetian should have received the kindness of Li Shimin, but he never gave birth.
. After she was taken back to the palace by Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, she quickly gave birth to a son. This can prove that Wu Zetian has a fertility, and there is no problem with . What about Li Shimin?
According to records, Li Shimin's first wife was Empress Changsun . She gave birth to three sons and four daughters for him, but died young.
In addition, there are six people in Li Shimin's position as the four concubines in the harem, one person in the nine concubines, one person in the Jieyu , one person in the beauty, three people in the talent, and one concubine Wang, who did not record his position in detail.
In Li Shimin's harem, there were 15 concubines recorded in the . In addition, there were unknown concubines and no concubines who were not recorded in the harem.
These concubines gave birth to fourteen princes and twenty-one princesses for Li Shimin, totaling thirty-five children .
Although this number is not large among the descendants of emperors of all dynasties, it is enough to prove that Li Shimin has no problem with fertility.
Since both of them have no problem with fertility, and Wu Zetian is talented and beautiful, but she is not favored?
Wu Zetian is hard to get favor
First of all, when Wu Zetian first entered the palace, Li Shimin was already twice as old as hers. These beauties are still competing for beauty in the harem, showing their magical powers.
Among them, is the most beautiful and extraordinary . Yang is the concubine Yang . Yang is originally the princess of Li Shimin's sister-in-law Li Yuanji , and she has a peerless face.
She was once a famous prostitute in a brothel, but Li Shimin ignored the opposition of the government and the public and took Li Yuanji into the harem after he died.
Wu Zetian is not as good as Yang's in terms of beauty, so what about in terms of talent and ? At that time, Concubine Xu Xian was famous all over the world because of her amazing talent and intelligence, and Li Shimin summoned her into the palace.
When she first entered the palace, she was named a talented person like Wu Zetian, but not long after, she was named one of the nine concubines. After Li Shimin's death, she was posthumously named Virtuous Concubine .
In contrast, Wu Zetian was a talented person when she first entered the palace, and Li Shimin was still a talented person after her death. It can be seen that she did not receive much attention and attention from Li Shimin in the palace.
plus beauty and talent are better than hers, so she is even more likely to attract attention in this harem .
This is also the reason why Wu Zetian, as a talented man in Li Shimin for twelve years, has not been pregnant or given birth for many years. But this did not stop Li Zhi from loving Wu Zetian.
Just after the three-year filial piety period ended, Li Zhi couldn't wait to take Wu Zetian back, and despite opposition to abolish the queen and reorganize Wu Zetian.
It was Li Zhi's practice that enabled Wu Zetian to approach the peak of power step by step, and eventually become the emperor and become a queen.
