The fire of "Yan Yuntai" brought Xiao Yanyan, a historical figure, into the public eye, and in the play, Xiao Yanyan tried her best to shake Xiao Bodhisattva brother and her son Yelü Manjunu together. And Xiao Bodhisattva brother is the historical Qi Tian Empress, the title can not be said to be domineering, but it only ended up with a tragic ending, which makes people regret.
Xiao Bodhisattva brother has a family background that everyone envies, the aunt is the legendary empress Xiao Yanyan, and the uncle is the current prime minister Han Derang, under such a family background, she has created her status of gold and jade.
As the son of Xiao Yanyan, Yelü Manjushri was known as Liao Shengzong after he ascended the throne, and when he first ascended the throne, his foundation was unstable, and many forces wanted to shake his position. In order to gain the support of various ministers, Xiao Yanyan found many women for the Liao Shengzong and used marriage as a way to win over others. When Emperor Shengzong of Liao was 16 years old, in order to consolidate the power of the Xiao family, Xiao Yanyan decided to let him marry the noble daughter of the Xiao family as an empress, and xiao Minlan's granddaughter accompanied her to the palace at that time.
After the two Xiao women entered the palace, Empress Xiao, as the lord of the harem, was not favored by the emperor, but Xiao Minlan's granddaughter entered the eyes of the Holy Sect, and under the repeated favors, she became pregnant and gave birth to children one after another, and she was soon promoted to a noble concubine by virtue of her mother's son, which made Empress Xiao resentful. But it wasn't long before Concubine Xiao Guifei passed away.
Empress Xiao had thought that after the death of the noble concubine, she would wait for the emperor's change of heart, but she never thought that she would be more miserable. Soon Xiao Bodhisattva entered the palace, when she was in the cardamom age, she was a rare Qingli beauty, she and Liao Shengzong had many common topics, and the two of them hit it off under several contacts. After Xiao Bodhisattva and Liao Shengzong were together, they were so favored that when she was 19 years old, she was named Empress Qi Tian, which was even more tragic, and Xiao Even lost her position as empress.
Liao Shengzong and Xiao Bodhisattva can be said to be Qinse and Ming, but unfortunately, the two sons born in succession unfortunately died early, and at the same time, the eldest son born before Xiao Guifei also died tragically. At that time, the Holy Sect was already over thirty years old, but there was no candidate for the crown prince, so how could this not make Empress Xiao anxious.
In order for the harem to blossom and scatter leaves, Liao Shengzong took many concubines to extend his heirs, and soon he welcomed his two princes and a daughter, namely Zong Xun, Zong Yuan, and Yan Mu Yan. In the year of Zong Yuan's birth, Empress Xiao and Xiang Xiang both passed away, and for a while Xiao Bodhisattva had no patron to rely on, and she also faced the embarrassing situation of not having a concubine.
But fortunately, in the relationship between Liao Shengzong and Gu Nian, when a concubine gave birth to the crown prince Zongzhen again, he chose to let Xiao Bodhisattva Brother raise Zongzhen, which also made Xiao Bodhisattva Brother have some relief and hope. At the age of 35, Xiao Bodhisattva gave birth to a concubine, which made both of them ecstatic, and wanted to carefully care for him to grow, but unfortunately, the day did not go according to people's wishes, and this child also died early. Later, Emperor Shengzong of Liao established himself as the crown prince, but the later practices made Xiao Bodhisattva Brother go to the road of eternal disaster.
Each emperor will play a balancing ploy in order to consolidate his dominance. The Holy Sect was no exception, and began to support the power of the true birth mother of the Sect, Xiao Yunjin. Seeing the increasingly powerful family, Xiao Yunjin was no longer willing to submit to Xiao Bodhisattva's brother, after all, the pain of snatching a son had made her always hold a grudge, and for many years, Liao Shengzong's preference for Xiao Bodhisattva brother made her jealous. She had always regarded Brother Xiao Bodhisattva as a thorn in her eye, and now Brother Xiao Bodhisattva no longer had the protection of the Empress Dowager and the Prime Minister, so Xiao Yunjin wanted to get rid of Brother Xiao Bodhisattva.
So she bought the next person next to Xiao Bodhisattva and watched her every move to see what handle she could grasp. However, Xiao Bodhisattva Brother was divided and kept to herself, so she had to find another way to slander Xiao Bodhisattva Brother and other men in the palace for having male and female interests. Liao Shengzong didn't think much of it when he found out, and he also knew that this was a slander by others, but he didn't go deep into the black hand behind the scenes. And Brother Xiao Bodhisattva knew that there were people around him monitoring his behavior, so she wanted him to get the punishment he deserved, but it was not as Brother Xiao Bodhisattva wished, and at this time she realized that the Holy Sect was no longer alone in favoring her.
Xiao Yunjin's family, under the support of the Liao Shengzong, gradually developed into a situation beyond the control of the Liao Shengzong. At the last moment when the Holy Sect came to the end of his life, he pleaded with the crown prince to save Xiao Bodhisattva and save her from Xiao Yunjin's poisonous hands. After these words were known to Xiao Yunjin, she was very angry, and she did not think of herself until the death of the twilight people, so she privately abolished the emperor's will and killed Xiao Bodhisattva and his family.
