Speaking of the empress, it can be said that it is the lifelong dream of many women in ancient times, in that era when the status of ancient women was low, it was not necessary to worry about being able to enter the palace and rise to this status without worrying, and the family would also follow a lot of light. Having said that, few harem women have become empresses and can continue to be favored by the emperor, and the woman we are going to talk about today is called the happiest empress in history, the emperor favored her for 45 years, and the second year after her death, the emperor also went with her.
The woman is actually the lonely Garo Queen, she was born well, when she was young, she was influenced by her family and read a lot of books, so she was not only familiar with ancient and modern times, but also had a general sense of color. When he reached the age of marriage, he was arranged by his parents to marry Yang Jian. That year, Yang Jian was 17 years old, and she was just a 14-year-old girl, and her life after marriage was still relatively happy.
I thought that life could go on like this, but I didn't expect that soon after marriage, her father was killed, and the lonely family began to decline, and many people were forced into exile. As her husband, she naturally supported her wife, because she was not willing to give in, and she was also implicated, and she fell into a very dangerous situation, and her life was very dark.
However, the two were not defeated by the difficulties, but worked together to get through the difficulties, and Du Lonely also vowed to help her husband build a career, and gave birth to 5 sons and 5 daughters during this period. As the days passed, the two unconsciously walked hand in hand for so many years, and finally in 581, the husband completely turned over, not only ascended to the throne, but also established his own dynasty, that is, the Sui Dynasty, and after settling everything on the throne, he would be crowned empress.
There were not many women who had read books in that era, and Du Lonely had her own opinions on many affairs of the dynasty, so the emperor would let her participate together every time she went to the dynasty, and when she left the dynasty, she would wait outside the palace in advance, and then return to the palace with her husband. She made great contributions to the imperial court and the people of society at that time, so the two empresses were called the Two Saints by posterity.
The two stayed together for 45 years, she was also favored by her husband for 45 years, it can be said that she was the happiest empress, when she was 62 years old, she died of illness and died in her own palace, the emperor was very sad after learning about it, not only held a rare high-standard funeral ceremony for her, but also personally sent a funeral for his beloved wife in the cold. In the two years since his wife's death, Yang Jian has been unwilling to manage the government, although many people have comforted him that the empress was originally a bodhisattva incarnation, and his death was only to return to the heavenly throne, but he still could not get out, and finally went with his beloved wife and was buried together.
