The most miserable female emperor in history, before Wu Zetian became emperor, was tortured for three days and three nights after being defeated and captured.
As we all know, the status of women in the feudal history of china for more than 2,000 years in ancient times is undoubtedly very low, which is not to mention, in the later period, it was introduced to restrain women's thoughts, and women have no status to speak of. However, in ancient times, when the status of women was so low, there were still some violations of this law. For example, Empress Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian's legendary life has been praised by the world to this day, she was first Li Shimin's talent, after Li Shimin's death, she could only cut her hair as a nun, after becoming a nun, she had feelings with Li Shimin's son Li Zhi, and was re-integrated into the palace, because of her wisdom, she firmly grasped the Tang Dynasty court, and finally she called herself emperor and became an empress. There are countless legends of a lifetime, and the Tang Dynasty has further prospered in her hands. She not only broke the rules of the inferior status of women in ancient times, but also became the empress of history. Many people think that Wu Zetian was the first empress in the history of our country, but in fact, it is not, just before Li Shimin's death, there was an empress, and she was the real first empress in history.
During the Zhenguan period, natural disasters occurred in the Zhejiang area, and for a time the people were miserable, but the imperial court at this time turned a blind eye to this, corrupt officials and corrupt officials still collected taxes normally, and for a time the people of the world had no way to live. Chen Shuozhen, a girl who was working in a squire's house at that time, could not bear to see a group of hungry people starving to death, secretly opened the granary of the squire's family and distributed the grain inside to the local people. After being discovered by the squire afterwards, Chen Shuozhen was tortured to vent his anger, and the hungry people rescued Chen Shuozhen and began to flee.
During the escape, Chen Shuozhen saw the tragic situation of the people along the way, and finally decided to revolt, and claimed to be the reincarnation of the Nine Heavenly Virgins, and gained a lot of believers, and disappeared for a while not long. When he was born again, Chen Shuozhen claimed that the immortals had returned, and for a time the people were convinced, so Chen Shuozhen's team gradually grew. After attacking the city all the way, in 653, Chen Shuozhen established his own political power, imitating the Tang Dynasty system, calling himself Emperor Wengui, so Chen Shuozhen became the first empress in history, earlier than Wu Zetian, and also established the regime himself.
However, in a confrontation with the Tang army, Chen Shuozhen's army fell a meteor, this phenomenon is a vision in ancient times, Tang Jun saw it and went around publicizing that Chen Shuozhen was dead, and the Tang army's heart was greatly encouraged, and Chen Shuozhen's uprising was also destroyed. After the defeat, Chen Shuozhen was unfortunately captured. Tang Jun was also not soft on this beautiful empress, removing Chen Shuozhen's clothes and torturing her for three days and three nights, which can be described as the most miserable empress in history.
