Yan Shi was 16 years old, it was innocent, enjoying youth, when she was around her parents, she married Emperor Liang, became the mother of a country, and was forced to grow up.
She married Emperor Liang, not because she loved Emperor Liang, nor because Emperor Liang loved her, but because she was the daughter of Master Yan, her father's protégés were all over the world, and she was a huge force in the court, emperor Liang needed her to be an empress, balance the court, and she married into the royal family and became the most honorable woman in Liang.
Empress Yan was not as beautiful as The Noble Concubine, not as heroic as Lin Leyao, and wen wan was not as calm as Concubine Jing, so she was not favored. For her, a loveless marriage, and not favored by Emperor Liang, she was only left with honor, and the honorable Empress Yan began her tragic life.
As the emperor's women, Ben did not dare to expect love, what they needed was status and power, wanted to have status and power, and sons were fundamental, so the women of the harem wanted to have sons, and the honorable Empress Ruyan was no exception.
Those who have seen the "Biography of Zhen Huan" all know how difficult it is to get pregnant and give birth to a child smoothly in the palace, Empress Yan is lucky, although she is not favored by her husband, but she gave birth to a son in one fell swoop, and this life is counted as hope.
Unfortunately, Empress Yan's son died not long after birth, which left her devastated.
Looking at the wise and wise emperor's eldest son Xiao Jingyu, who was loved by the emperor like a jewel, and there was a mother and uncle with a strong background, her heart was broken, and what made her even more indignant was that Princess Hui and she also gave birth to a son Xiao Jingting, although Jingting was sick and a little disabled, but finally survived, grew up, thinking about her son who died early, there was always a breath in her heart.
Lin Leyao was deeply loved by the emperor, and she had a powerful mother-in-law, she did not dare to do anything, so she took this breath out of the head of the honest Huifei, and since then Huifei has become her punching bag.
Hating others is actually hurting yourself.
Although Empress Yan could torture Concubine Hui, such as letting her copy the scriptures to the empress dowager, and the time arrangement was very urgent, so that she could copy her hands, but after the torture, the most painful and bitter thing was herself, she had not yet finished the strength in her heart, and then Xiao Jingxuan, Xiao Jinghuan, Xiao Jingli, Xiao Jingyan, the birth of a prince and a prince, made her hate it.
Empress Yan not only looked at the princes in the harem angry, but also looked at the more noble concubines and concubines were favored, not to mention that the more noble concubines looked beautiful, spoke with sharp teeth, and thought quickly, always had a sense of superiority in front of her, making her hate her teeth itch.
She just watched one by one spoiled concubines arrogant in front of her, watching the prince of the full harem running around, depressed and almost injured, the mother of the fifth son of the emperor Xiao Jinghuan, Xiang Concubine, died, the emperor was the master of Xiao Jinghuan under her name, from then on, she also had a son, life had hope, the soul also had sustenance, the days were slowly lived, but every time she saw the excellent emperor's eldest son Xiao Jingyu still had no anger, but the situation was stronger than people, she could not do anything.
Just when she was about to confess her fate, the news of the Rebellion of the Red Flame Army came, followed by the death of King Qi in collusion with Lin Xie, and Empress Yan was overjoyed and immediately realized that she had finally waited for the opportunity.
She was an empress, and Jing Huan was under her name, and she also possessed the name of a concubine, but what she never expected was that the emperor had actually made Xiao Jingxuan, the son of Concubine Yue, the crown prince, which made her angry to the point of internal injury, but she did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with the emperor's decision.
After all, she had selfish intentions, and besides Xiao Jingxuan was the son of the emperor's favorite concubine, what else did he have, neither his maternal background nor his personal ability, and Xiao Jingyu, who was both wise and prestigious, could not be compared, so Jing Huan still had a chance.
She began to add weight to Xiao Jinghuan step by step, marrying him a princess with a good family background, although the play did not say that the princess of honor was from the family lineage, but her brother Zhu Fan was the emperor of the Temple, and the gifts chosen by the emperor and the empress every year by the honorary princess were very good, and she was liked by the empress, so it can be seen that she must be a big bridesmaid with a family background.
After that, Empress Yan also recommended Yan Taishi's protégés and old people to the King of Honor, layer by layer, and added weight to him layer by layer, otherwise a child born of a concubine had any connections in the court, not to mention that the military had the Qingguo Gong, and the six ministries had the Punishment Department, the Officials Department, and the Ministry of Works, these big men survived to this level, but they would not take sides casually, if there was no Empress Yan's handwriting, I would not believe it.
With the help of Empress Yan, King Yu gradually became full of wings and had the ability to compete with the prince, and the emperor could not let the court appear one-sided, and began to consciously or unconsciously support the king of Yu to compete with the prince and maintain the balance between the court and the middle.
The king of Honor and the prince fought in the previous dynasty, and the harem was the battle between Empress Yan and The Noble Concubine, the More Noble Concubine relied on the favor of the Emperor, and the Empress Yan relied on her noble status as the mother of the country.
When they were fighting in the former dynasty and the harem, Mei Changsu came to Jinling with the determination of revenge, and they fought for this Qilin talent, not knowing that people had come to secretly calculate them.
Mei Changsu used the power of the prince to uproot the Qingguo Gong, the officials, and the punishment department on the side of king Yu, and in turn used the power of king Yu to remove Xie Yu, Hubu, and Libu on the prince's side, and when they fought to the death, king Jing rose strongly under the operation of Mei Changsu.
The military strength, first of all, the twelve-year military career of King Jing, has a powerful force of its own. With a cup of love, the King of Jing saved the Lord of the Phoenix County, and the 100,000 iron horses of the Mu King's Mansion in Yunnan leaned towards the King of Jing. The relationship between Mei Changsu and Meng Zhi, the strength of the 50,000 forbidden army, and the later command of the King of Jing to command the patrol battalion, the strength of these armies is estimated to be able to directly force the palace.
The six forces, the Household Department, the Ceremonial Department, the Punishment Department, and the Officials Department, who were replaced by the King of Honor and the Crown Prince, were all replaced by pure ministers who were good friends with the King of Jing, and although they did not fight with the Party, they also had tendencies, and they were all inclined to the King of Jing, which was also a great force.
Under the layout of Mei Changsu, the prince and the king of Yu were both defeated and injured, the prince was first kicked out of the game and became the king of sacrifice, and then the king of Yu was basically kicked out, from the prince of Qizhu to the prince of two pearls, so that he thought about it behind closed doors.
How can a prince who does not have any power in his hands be compared with the King of Jing, who is in the middle of the day, and the King of Jing has the support of four of the six departments, and the strength of the military is incomparable, and the King of Honor, in addition to bowing his head and admitting defeat, is left to rebel.
In fact, at this time, Empress Yan was also very depressed, she had been running the harem for so many years, and she did not even see that Concubine Jing was a difficult character, and the King of Jing was so powerful, but she did not think of rebelling after killing her.
What she did not expect was that King Yu took advantage of the fact that in March, when the emperor went out to Jiu'an Mountain for spring hunting, he forced Empress Yan to take down the forbidden army, and Empress Yan did not want to rebel at this time, but in the face of King Yu's persecution, she had no way to retreat. Because she knows very well what the consequences of sitting and waiting to die are, if the Qingyu King Qingjun side succeeds, she is the supreme empress, maybe this temptation is too great, maybe she does not know the real purpose of the YuWang, in short, she helped the Yuwang.
King Yu failed, and the ensuing Empress Yan was deposed, because of Concubine Jing's request, and Marquis Yan's request to strip away the titles and titles of the Yan clan to show atonement for his sins, and the emperor did not list the empress as a traitor.
Although Empress Yan was preserved, she became an ordinary concubine like Huifei from the honorific position of the mother of the empress and a country, and even the rank of Huifei was inferior, plus she had no heirs, she was only starving and not dying in this life, and she was doomed to a miserable life.
It is said that once you enter the palace door as deep as the sea, there is no love here, there is no affection, some are just power and struggle, The Empress yan from the 16-year-old girl into this cage, a lifetime of struggle in this, no love, no pampering, she is fighting alone, and finally lost, not only lost the position of power, but also lost life, how a "miserable" word.
