Today, Xiaobian introduces the historical Ruyi Princess, she is the daughter of Yang Guang and Xiao Hou, lively and lovely, brutal and willful, from time to time will run into some disasters, but also heavy love and righteousness. She and Li Shimin are both in love, and finally come together after ups and downs, she is a typical virtuous wife and mother, and they enter the world of Princess Ruyi together.
In the film and television drama, Princess Ruyi is eccentric, noble, and there is no shortage of suitors around, but in the history books, she is only an abandoned princess, and giving Li Shimin a concubine is only forced by the situation, and even did not give her father filial piety, and gave birth to a son. Old Book of Tang. The biography of Li Kelie records: "Mother Ke, the daughter of the Sui Emperor. Princess Ruyi gave birth to Li Ke in the second year of WuDe. It can be seen from this that she entered Li Shimin's mansion in the first year of Wu De, and the Sui Emperor Yang Guang died in the second year of Yining, at this time Princess Ruyi was supposed to guard the filial piety for her father, the Sui Emperor. But as a princess, she didn't even have the opportunity to keep filial piety for her father, and Ruyi's situation was really embarrassing. Ruyi, because of the situation, married Li Shimin.
Li Yuan originally wanted to marry her to Li Jiancheng, but Li Jiancheng was the eldest son and would inherit the unification in the future, and if he accepted this princess of the fallen country, he would have to have a bloody storm, thinking about this, he had to point out Ruyi to Li Shimin. After the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were shot, and Li Shimin eventually ascended to the throne, according to the wording in the biography of the sons of Emperor Taizong of the Two Tang Dynasties, the title of "Yang Concubine" does not refer to a simple concubine, but the Yang clan should have received the title of official "concubine" after Li Shimin ascended the throne, belonging to one of the four wives (four concubines).
In the film and television drama "Sui and Tang Heroes", Li Shimin was more fond of Princess Ruyi, but in historical facts, the feelings of the two were extremely flat, and even his son was not favored. In the seventh year of Zhenguan, Li Ke went to the fiefdom. Just when Li Ke went to the fiefdom, Li Tai, who was born in the same year as him, enjoyed a luxurious life, and even almost stayed in the Wude Hall. Li Ke's status is not noble, although she was born to Concubine Yang, but Princess Yang did not have the support of a prominent family lineage, and she was struggling in the palace.
Li Ke was talented and intelligent, and he acted cautiously and cautiously, for fear of causing others to be jealous, but even so, Li Shimin still had some scruples about him, and even said: "The love of father and son, don't you want to see each other often?" However, the affairs of the family and the state are special, and they must be made into a domain, and although the father and son are close relatives and are guilty, then the law of the world cannot be private. Emperor Han had established Emperor Zhao, King Dan of Yan was disobedient, Yin Tu was misbehaving, and Huo Guang was simply reprimanded. As a courtier, you must not abstain!"
Li Shimin's implication is that from an objective point of view, the rebellion cannot be linked to Li Ke, he is far away from the fiefdom, and he has no prominent status, who will support him in the DPRK and the Chinese ministers? Compared with Li Ke, Li Tai was more likely to rebel, he was the son of empress dowager, often accompanied by Li Shimin, and had ambitions to seize the throne, but Li Shimin trusted him quite a bit.
Li Ke and Li Tai are both intelligent people, the only difference is the birth mother, Li Shimin cares more for Li Tai, not without the face of the eldest grandson Empress, which shows that Princess Yang's situation in the palace is not optimistic. Li Shimin not only guarded against Li Ke politically, but also interfered with Li Ke in his life. The world believes that Li Shimin favored Li Ke because Li Shimin intended to make him crown prince, but in fact, this was just Li Shimin's trade-off. However, Li Shimin's desire to make Li Ke the crown prince was only a whim, and in the end he still chose Li Zhi, the third son of his concubine, who had been raised by his side since childhood. The former dynasty and the harem are closely linked, Li Ke has talent and responsibility, but because his birth mother is not favored and is not reused, most of the film and television works are adapted, if Princess Ruyi is really with Li Shimin, then how can Li Ke not be pampered?
At the beginning of the fourth year of Yonghui (653), Li Ke was involved in a political struggle and died unjustly; His brother Li Yan was also implicated. Princess Ruyi's life has been associated with Yang Guang, Li Shimin and others, and it can be said that her life has no freedom to speak of. She experienced the demise of the Sui Dynasty and the rise of the Tang Dynasty, from a generation of princesses to imperial concubines. There is no clear historical record of the ending of Princess Ruyi, but in terms of the above, its ending is not difficult to imagine. Her life experienced the demise of the Sui Dynasty and the founding of the Tang Dynasty, from a generation of imperial daughters to imperial concubines, in which the wandering and hardships left us with unlimited reverie.
