As the saying goes, there is no two days in heaven, and this sentence is most suitable for the emperor. Since the emperor is like this, the same is true as the emperor's wife, and the position of the empress of the dynasties will only have one woman in the same period, and the other wives and concubines will be concubines. However, there is also a very special emperor in history, he has five empresses, it is worth mentioning that these five empresses were established by him at the same time.
This extraordinary emperor was Yuwen Yun, the son of Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou. This emperor was probably suppressed for too long under yuwen Yong's strict teachings in his youth, and as soon as he took the throne, he exploded into an inner small universe, and he was tyrannical in the court, and he was drunk in the harem. Let's take a closer look at the emperor's five beautiful empresses.
The first empress was Yang Lihua, the daughter of Yang Jian, the Duke of Sui, who was married when Yuwen Yun was still crown prince. When Yuwen Yun became emperor, Yang Lihua was suddenly promoted from the status of princess to empress. Because he only coveted pleasure, Yuwen Yun became emperor for only one year and passed the throne to his son Yuwen Xian, who called himself the Emperor of Tianyuan, and the former empress Yang Lihua became the Empress of Tianyuan.
The second empress was Yuwen Yan's birth mother, Zhu Manyue, an extraordinary woman who was a full round older than Yuwen Yun. At first, it was because of the family's crime, Zhu Manyue was implicated and punished as a slave in the palace, in a serendipitous coincidence she met Yuwen Yun, Yuwen Yun very much liked this woman who had experienced vicissitudes, the two people had a little story, and it was also because of this process that there was a later Yuwen Yun. After Yuwen Yun Zen was ceded to Yuwen Chen, Zhu Manyue was also named empress, known as the Heavenly Empress.
The third empress was Chen Yueyi, and her father, Chen Shanti, was once a subordinate of the powerful minister Erzhu Zhao, and also a high-ranking and powerful character. Unlike the previous two, Chen Yueyi was a concubine chosen by Yuwen Yunchan, and after entering the harem for less than a month, she was crowned as the Grand Empress of Heaven by Yuwen Yun.
The fourth empress was Yuan Leshang, who entered the palace with the previous One Chen Yueyi, and was initially made a noble concubine by Yuwen Yun. Perhaps there was something special about the two people, Yuwen Yun was particularly fond of Yuan Leshang and Chen Yueyi, and even the time of canonization was at the same time, on the same day that Chen Yueyi was named the Great Empress of Heaven, Yuan Leshang was also named the Great Empress of Heaven.
The fifth empress was named Wei Chifan, and the identity of this woman was somewhat special, she had already married before entering the palace, and her original husband was Yuwen Wen. During a pilgrimage to the palace, yuwen yun was forced to stay in the palace, and Yuwen Wen was very frightened when he heard about this, and he thought of rebelling. As a result, the matter was revealed and killed, and Wei Chi was also included in the harem by Yuwen Yun, becoming the Great Empress of Tianzuo, one of his five empresses.
Since taking the throne, Yuwen Yun has been inseparable from wine and women all the time, and his body has finally stepped down under such an overdraft. After Yuwen Yun's death, these five empresses, except for the original wife Empress Tianyuan, all became nuns after Yuwen Yun's death.
