Li Shimin and empress dowager Changsun were deeply in love, and their stories were enjoyable. Empress Eldest Sun was well known, but her birth mother Gao Shi had no sense of existence in history. The author's post today will talk about the life trajectory of Li Shimin's mother-in-law Gao Shi.
Gao was born in a noble and unfortunate family, she was from the Northern Qi royal family Gao clan. Gao's grandfather was Gao Yue, the King of Qinghe in Northern Qi, and her father was Gao Li, the King of Northern Qi. The Gao clan, who came from the imperial family, encountered the Northern Qi fallen kingdom and became the unlucky imperial family of the fallen country. After the fall of Northern Qi, Gao Li entered Sui as an official, was suppressed by Emperor Wen of Sui in various ways, and finally died of depression, really dead.
Ancient marriages pay attention to the right door, and the unfortunate member of the imperial family of the fallen country, Gao Shi, married the eldest son Sheng, who was also a member of the imperial family of the fallen country. The Changsun clan was originally a member of the Northern Wei imperial family, and because it was the eldest grandson of the imperial family, it was given the surname Changsun. Although Changsun Sheng was a member of the imperial family of the fallen country, he was deeply valued by Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Ju of Sui, and he was not unlucky at all.
Changsun Sheng's wife, a certain clan, died early, leaving behind the eldest son, Changsun Anye. Gao's marriage to Changsun Sheng is the first marriage, and Changsun Sheng's marriage to Gao is the second marriage. The eldest grandson Sheng was heroic, and gao married the eldest son sheng, although the age difference between the husband and wife was very different, but it did not insult the gao family's valve reading.
After Gao married changsun Sheng, he gave birth to a son and a daughter. The son's name is Changsun Wujie, and his daughter's name is Changsun. There is no historical record of the eldest grandson's name, and the history books only say that her nickname is Guanyin.

Gao's young wife married an old husband, and she suffered the pain of Bai Zhou at a young age. After the death of the eldest son Sheng, gao shi took the orphan and widowed mother and was bullied by the eldest son, the eldest son, Changsun Anye. In order to dominate the inheritance, the eldest grandson An Ye drove his stepmother Gao Shi and his half-siblings out of the house. Gao Shilian had no choice but to take his sister and nephew back to raise them.
In the Sui Dynasty, Gao Shilian was an unlucky egg who drank white water and stuffed his teeth, and even if his career had not progressed, he was also assigned to Lingnan as a small official. Although Gao Shilian's career was not smooth, he had a wife of the twenty-four filial pieties who was praised by the zhengshi, Xian Yushi. Gao's family has a pair of children, with the care of his sister-in-law, and his life is also passable.
The only records in the history books about the first half of Gao's life are the Old Book of Tang. This sentence in the biography of Empress Changsun: "Sheng's wife, Sui Yangzhou's daughter of Shi Gao Jingde, was born." There is a half-brother Anye, a good wine scoundrel. After the sacrifice of the gong, the latter and the unscrupulous and the young, An Ye rebuked the uncle. ”
Most people know so much about the deeds of Empress Dowager Gao. In the first half of Gao's life, he first encountered the pain of Bai Zhou, and was bullied by his stepdaughter, Sun Anye. After returning to her mother's house, although she had a good sister-in-law, she was certainly not happy to be widowed and raising her children.
Gao Shi appeared in the history books again, and it was already time to build a conclusive conclusion. New Book of Tang. The Genealogy Table of the Prime Minister records: "In February of the ninth year, there was no need to die bereavement of his mother. ”
The picture shows the film and television image of Li Shimin, the picture comes from the network, thanks to the original author.
In ancient times, when a parent died, the filial son would resign and keep filial piety. In February of the ninth year of Zhenguan, the eldest grandson was removed from his official post for his mother's filial piety. Judging from this piece of historical data, Gao Lived to the Ninth Year of Zhenguan.
Gao's widowhood, with hard work and hard work, raised his children to grow up, and witnessed his son-in-law Li Shimin ascending the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, his daughter Changsun clan in Changqiu, and his son Changsun Wuxian worshiping Yipin. Gao Shigui is Li Shimin's mother-in-law, and she has such a noble status, why does she have no sense of existence in the Zhenguan Dynasty?
In my opinion, Gao's lack of chastity is the best support for his daughter. The mother-in-law's sense of existence in front of her daughter and son-in-law is too high, and the daughter's life is definitely not good. For men, the best mother-in-law is Gao's mother-in-law, who has no sense of existence. If the mother-in-law's sense of existence is too high, it will affect the feelings of the husband and wife.
For example, Emperor Gaozong's mother-in-law, Liu Shi, was a master of things. Liu was the biological mother of Empress Wang, and after Emperor Gaozong of Tang ascended the throne, Liu, as emperor Gaozong's mother-in-law, secured the position of Zhongshu Ling for his brother Liu Yi.
Yonghui was three years old, and at that time there was no Wu Meiniang. Empress Wang's opponent was Consort Xiao. Empress Wang was childless, so she adopted Li Zhong, the eldest son of Shu, as the eldest son of Concubine. Empress Wang's mother, Liu Yi, came forward and joined forces with The Chancellors such as Changsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang, and Yu Zhining to jointly present a petition to Emperor Gaozong of Tang and demand that Li Zhong be made crown prince.
Zizhi Tongjian. Volume 199 records that when Liu Yi became prime minister on April 24, he began to jump up and down, looking for the prime minister to force Emperor Gaozong of Tang to make Li Zhong crown prince. Emperor Gaozong of Tang was still in his infancy and could only be at the mercy of Liu Yi, and on the second day of the first month of July, he crowned Li Zhong as crown prince.
The incident of establishing a prince made Tang Gaozong very unhappy, but he had to comply. Liu used the influence of Guanlong's aristocratic clique to force his son-in-law Emperor Gaozong of Tang to submit. Since then, Liu Shi and Liu Yi have not taken Tang Gaozong seriously.
Zizhi Tongjian. Volume 199 records: "After not being able to sway things, the mother Of Wei's wife Liu Shi and her uncle Zhongshu ordered Liu to enter the Sixth Palace, but she was not polite. ”
In the sixth year of Yonghui, although Wu Zhaoyi was favored by Emperor Gaozong of Tang, it was not enough to shake the position of Empress Wang. Wu Zhaoyi was particularly clever, and she knew that Tang Gaozong hated his mother-in-law, so she decided to start with Liu Shi and further damage Tang Gaozong's relationship with Empress Wang.
In June of the sixth year of Yonghui, Wu Zhaoyi said to Emperor Gaozong of Tang: "Your Majesty's mother-in-law, Liu Shi, not only despises His Majesty, but also curses His Majesty with the art of victory. The Empress's uncle Liu Yi, by virtue of his power as prime minister, did not take His Majesty seriously. ”
Liu Clan was indeed rude to Tang Gaozong, who had already had enough of his mother-in-law's anger, and when he heard Wu Zhaoyi say this, he immediately issued an edict prohibiting Liu from entering the palace. Emperor Gaozong of Tang not only did not allow his mother-in-law to enter the palace, but also demoted Liu Yi from prime minister to assassin.
This matter canonically published in the Zizhi Tongjian. The original text of volume 199 is: "Wu Zhaoyi falsely accused the queen and her mother, Lady Liu of the State of Wei, of being disgusted with victory, and that her mother Liu shi was forbidden to enter the palace after the edict. Autumn, July, Peng Yin, degraded the official Shangshu Liu as the Suizhou Assassin History. ”
Wu Zhaoyi originally just wanted a position as a concubine, but he couldn't get it. She seized the pain point of Tang Gaozong's bad relationship with his mother-in-law, and by attacking liu shi, she achieved the goal of overthrowing Empress Wang. Empress Wang was deposed, and she had a lot to do with her mother, who liked to interfere in the affairs of the family of two.
When Gao Shi was in Li Shimin's dynasty, he did not have any sense of existence. Gao's family did not add chaos to the son-in-law, and let the daughter and son-in-law love for life. When Li Zhi was in power, the Liu clan jumped up and down to interfere in the lives of their daughters and sons-in-law, and whoever became a son-in-law would not like such an eventful mother-in-law. The Liu clan annoyed their son-in-law, and as a result, brought the disaster of killing their daughter.
Put the "Zizhi Tongjian. When we compare the Liu clan recorded in volume 199 with the Gao clan, which has no sense of existence, we will realize a truth: "The best way for a mother-in-law to make her daughter and son-in-law live well is to have no sense of existence." If the mother-in-law likes to jump up and down, it is difficult for the daughter's marriage to be happy. ”
