Tang Taizong harem beauty 3000, why do you love these 2 women, do not abandon! These two people are the well-known Empress Changsun and Xu Hui, and Empress Changsun is the most favorite woman in the life of Tang Taizong Li Shimin. She has known Dali since she was a child. He married Li Shimin at the age of 13. After Li Shimin became emperor, he often wanted to discuss state affairs with her, but Empress Eldest Sun always avoided answering, saying: I am a woman and a Taoist family, how can I interfere in state affairs? Therefore, no matter what Tang Taizong Li Shimin asked, she did not respond. So, is Empress Eldest Sun a person who is not interested in politics? Of course not. When Li Shimin was the King of Qin, he and his father Li Hu marched east and west together and established great military achievements. After the great merit, he was not willing to be only the king of Qin, he wanted to be the prince, and then the emperor. Driven by ambition, the contradictions between Li Shimin and his elder brother (crown prince) Li Jiancheng, younger brother Li Yuanji, and father Li Yuan of Tang Gaozu grew day by day.
In this tense atmosphere of palace crisis, the Eldest Sun clan was cautious and cautious, and worked very hard to honor Li Yuan and please him, and at the same time to establish good relations with the concubines around Li Yuan. This is equivalent to installing a lot of eyeliner around Li Yuan. In this way, every move of Li Yuan and other sons was under Li Shimin's eyes. The Changsun clan made great contributions to Li Shimin's efforts to obtain intelligence from his opponents. At the time of the Xuanwumen Revolution, the contradictions between Li Shimin and his father and brother developed to the point of meeting each other. Li Shimin personally went into battle, and the Eldest Sun clan encouraged the soldiers to kill the enemy bravely in the Qin Palace. With the joint efforts of both husband and wife, the Xuanwumen revolution was successful, and eventually Li Shimin ascended the throne, and the Eldest Sun clan became empress.
After Li Shimin became emperor, he made great efforts to govern. He often asked his ministers to give him advice. Wei Zheng was a well-known courtier, who spoke directly and often prevented Tang Taizong from coming to power. Once, Wei Zheng accused Li Shimin of his transgressions in front of the Minister of Culture and Military Affairs in the main hall, and did not give Li Shimin any face, making Li Shimin intolerable. He immediately returned to the palace in anger and said to the eldest grandson empress who came to greet him: One day I will kill this dirt bun! Empress Eldest Sun asked who the "Tu Baozi" was, and Li Shimin said that it was Wei Zheng, and he always did not save face for me in public. After hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun immediately put on the official dress of the empress dowager and solemnly paid homage to Li Shimin: Congratulations to His Majesty for always being a subject, because only a wise king has an upright minister. In the face of such a wise wife, Li Shimin's anger instantly dissipated.
Empress Eldest Sun was a very virtuous person, but due to too much worry and poor health, she died at the age of 36. When she was terminally ill, both the emperor and the crown prince were very anxious. Crown Prince Li Chengqian offered to pardon the prisoner and spend more monks to pray for her to prolong her life. However, empress dowager Changsun said: There is life in the dead, not by human beings. If the blessing can be extended, I am not evil. If doing good works is ineffective, how can you ask for it? Firmly opposed. On her deathbed, Empress Eldest Sun said to Tang Taizong: You must not reuse foreign relatives, and now that my mother's family has become an official, you must not let them become high-ranking officials. Because there have been no good results since ancient times, if you are really good to me and my mother's family, don't give them the opportunity to interfere in politics. Empress Eldest Sun also said: After I die, I must not be buried thickly. When I was alive, as a woman, it was of no benefit to the world, and when I died, how could I let the state waste its resources on my funeral! What a simple and sensible queen.
From the above examples, it can be seen that the empress dowager is not really indifferent to politics. In fact, she is well versed in politics, and what she does is extremely appropriate, but measured. So when she died, Tang Taizong said with great grief: I lost a good helper in the inner palace! There has never been a queen again. Tang Taizong also specially built a pagoda in the palace, and when you climb this tower, you can see the Zhaoling Tomb buried by Empress Changsun, and use this way to express his mourning.
There is also a woman, who is deeply liked by Tang Taizong, she is Xu Hui, who was born in an intellectual family. Xu Hui, known as a child prodigy since childhood, could speak at five months, read Mao Poems and Analects at the age of four, and could write articles at the age of eight. Just before and after Wu Zetian entered the palace, Xu Hui was also recruited into the palace and named a talented person. After Xu Hui entered the palace, he knew the book and was very concerned about national affairs. She saw that Tang Taizong Li Shimin was a little proud after years of hard work and the country was thriving. She felt that this wind could not last long, so she gave Tang Taizong a loose word: Fu Is willing to suppress his will, be cautious and always as always, cut the light to add weight, and follow the present to replace the former. The intention was to advise Emperor Taizong of Tang to guard against arrogance and impatience, hoping that the emperor would start well and end well. Tang Taizong saw the shadow of empress dowager in her and admired her very much. It didn't take long for Xu Cairen to be promoted to Jiehao. Xu Hui continued to care about national affairs, and soon became full again. In the 23rd year of Zhenguan, Tang Taizong died, and Xu Hui was very sad, saying that Li Shimin was kind to her, and she vowed to follow Li Shimin underground. So she fell ill and refused to take medicine, and soon died, and after her death, she was posthumously given as Xu Xianfei. Combining Xu Hui and Changsun, we can see what kind of woman Tang Taizong really likes.
Such a woman must have the following three qualities: First, she must put herself in the right position and abide by the way of women; Second, we must bear in mind the world and be good at planning big things; The third is to be gentle and thick, soft on the outside and tough on the inside.
