The most ruthless imperial family, this sentence says that in the face of power, especially in the face of imperial power, family affection and so on are not important and cannot withstand the test.
But having said that, it is not specific to everyone, and no one will believe that the best sister couple with them will harm themselves, even people like Wu Zetian will make such mistakes.
Wu Zetian was brought into the palace by Empress Wang, but later she should have been clear in her heart about What Empress Wang did, but in the end Wu Zetian still decided to get her sister into the palace, after all, there were multiple helpers and multiple roads, which could also strengthen Wu Zetian's strength.
The history books say that Wu Zetian was, the dragon's eye and phoenix neck", "square forehead and broad yi", which looked more in line with the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty at that time, and was not much worse than her sister.
Wu Zetian's sister was named Wu Shun, although she was older than Wu Zetian, but the charm still existed, especially the early death of her husband Helan Anshi, leaving this woman in a state of emptiness.
Anyway, the emperor would have had a lot of women, rather than letting others come in, it was better to let his close relatives come over, so Wu Zetian introduced his sister to Li Zhi.
Unexpectedly, this Li Zhi actually fell in love with this widowed Wu Shun for many years, and ordered her to be named a Korean woman, so it seems that Li Zhi is indeed somewhat of a motherly complex, and likes women who are older than himself.
If only Wu Shun was favored, it probably would not have developed into fratricide later, after all, Wu Zetian was already an empress, and he had a prince as a guarantee, and his position was still very stable.
But this WuShun also got his daughter Helan into the palace, this is good, the mother and daughter two serve Li Zhi together, no wonder so many people want to compete for the throne, becoming emperor is a lot of benefits.
Between Wu Zetian and his sister, there must be feelings, but the sister's daughter is not necessarily, Wu Zetian entered the palace at the age of 14, stayed in the palace for many years, and this niece actually did not get along much, and now that the little niece has entered the palace, many things have begun to change subtly.
Wu Shun would not do anything unfavorable to Wu Zetian, but the little girl Helan Clan had no feelings for her own aunt, more importantly, power was always addictive, seeing that her aunt's power was so aware, the little girl had Li Zhi's liking and her mother's help, and her ambitions began to swell.
Just like the Wu Zetian Lion Horse Incident, the young man did not understand the cruelty and bloodshed of politics at all, and blindly expressed himself, but it was counterproductive, especially since she was not facing Li Zhi, but the unique Wu Zetian in Chinese history.
Wu Zetian was left out in the cold for 12 years, and the little girl Helan did not know the weight, and thought that with her young beauty, she could also call the wind and rain like her aunt Wu Zetian.
The little girl's exposed ambitions were soon discovered by Wu Zetian, but unfortunately, Wu Zetian's sister and Li Zhi died not long after, leaving only an ambitious Helan clan.
In the end, beauty and ambition were inferior to Wu Zetian's wisdom and poison, and Wu Zetian's family poisoned and killed the Helan clan, which also caused Helan Minzhi's dissatisfaction, which caused a more bloody and cruel massacre.
Wu Zetian's family is not a bit chaotic, sisters, sisters and nieces, are all Li Zhi's women, this is actually not chaotic in ancient times, ancient sisters married to the same person, is a very common thing.
Remember the lyrics of that song, bring your dowry, and your sister, which truly reflects the real situation of that era, and is not a new thing.
However, like Wu Zetian, for the sake of power, and cannibalism is relatively rare, marrying sisters is largely to reduce family conflicts, but Wu Zetian for the highest power, killing the Helan clan is only not an appetizer.
Welcome to pay attention, the next article we will talk about the death of a man who is more beautiful than Simon, Helan Min.
