The Sui and Tang Dynasties and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms played almost the same role, that is to say, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms played a role in promoting the Three Kingdoms period, so the Sui and Tang Dynasties also played a role in promoting the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Most people understand the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties through the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and it is undeniable that the Sui and Tang Dynasties are very wonderfully described in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
Most of them only know that during the sui and Tang dynasties, Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji brothers were in conflict, and as early as when the three brothers conquered the world, contradictions had already potentially appeared. It is undeniable that the three brothers have created great achievements for the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty can be established, and there must be an inseparable relationship with the three brothers.
To this day, people know everything about Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji. Li Shimin took the lead in launching the Xuanwumen Rebellion, which fundamentally changed the situation in the Tang Dynasty. It should be known that after the tang dynasty changed through the Xuanwu Gate, the successor to the throne changed. Originally, Li Jiancheng took the throne, but it turned out to be Li Shimin.
Li Jiancheng, the eldest son of concubine, failed in the Xuanwumen Rebellion, which made Li Shimin the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty. What is less known is that Li Yuan also has a daughter, she is Princess Pingyang Zhao. Her name was Li Xiuning, and she was the only daughter of Emperor Gaozong of Tang and his wife Dou. For the name Li Xiuning, most people do not know.
Li Xiuning's most powerful thing is that she was the first princess in ancient times to command thousands of troops and horses to establish an imperial cause for her father, and from this point of view, Li Xiuning's courage and strategy were no worse than her brothers. To say that in ancient times, Li Xiuning should be a collection of thousands of pets in one, usually delicate and weak, not stained by the world.
Then Li Xiuning is an exception, since he was a child, Li Xiuning is dancing with guns and sticks, riding horses to shoot arrows, and talking about Tao strategy. This is very similar to her brother and brother. The reason why Li Xiuning has such a personality is very influential with her mother Dou Shi. Li Xiuning's mother's boldness affected her all the time.
In May of the thirteenth year of Daye, Li Yuan decided to raise an army. At this time, Princess Pingyang Zhao and her husband Chai Shao were in Chang'an at the time, and Li Yuan secretly recalled them. Later, when Princess Pingyang Zhao knew that her father was determined to raise an army, she began to resolve to recruit more troops for her father. The history books record this as "The princess returned to the Zhuangshou of Yan County, scattered her family assets, attracted the lives of the mountain, and obtained hundreds of people, and raised an army to meet Gaozu." “
From then on, Princess Pingyang Zhao began to command the soldiers and horses, and at this time, Princess Pingyang Zhao and her husband Chai Shao were of equal rank, and the two had their own headquarters. Because of this, Princess Pingyang Zhao became the first princess in history to command thousands of troops and horses and make contributions for her father. Li Xiuning sold all his property, helped the victims of the disaster, recruited troops, and soon expropriated a team of more than 100 people.
In just three months, Princess Pingyang Zhao recruited four or five teams, the largest of which had reached tens of thousands. Li Xiuning served as the manager with outstanding courage, which was very rare in ancient times. It sounds a little inappropriate for a woman to be the manager. However, Li Xiuning ruled the army well, which made the soldiers very convinced.
In November of the thirteenth year of Daye, the main Force of Li Yuan's Tang Army conquered Chang'an, and Li Xiuning also led her army to attack the Sui Dynasty territory. Therefore, Li Xiuning laid a territory for the Tang Dynasty. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, in such a chaotic world, Li Xiuning's army was supported and loved by the common people, and even called her army the "Lady Army".
After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the record of Li Xiuning disappeared. For the next six years, Li Xiuning did not appear in the history books. In the sixth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, a record of Li Xiuning appeared, but at this time it was Li Xiuning's funeral. Her funeral was different in that it was buried in a military ceremony, but in ancient times, it was not in accordance with etiquette.
Li Xiuning's funeral was "front and rear Yu Bao advocating, da ren, liturgy, ban sword forty people, tiger armor pawn". It can be said that it is huge. At that time, some ministers objected, so Tang Gaozu Li Yuan retorted: "Advocate, military music also." Princess Yu Sizhu raised an army to the banner of Righteousness, personally held the golden drum, and had the order of Keding. Zhou Zhiwen's mother, listed in the Ten Chaos; the princess Gong Sangsa, very woman's match. What a bravado! ”
