In 713, Li Longji gave his aunt Princess Taiping to commit suicide. The princess sighed, "I helped your father ascend to the throne, but now you want to kill my family?" Xue Chongjian next to him said a word to his mother, Princess Taiping, and after Hearing this, Princess Taiping tearfully drew her sword and killed herself.
Princess Taiping is the younger daughter of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, who has been clever and clever since she was a child, and is deeply loved by Wu Zetian. Almost everyone who provoked Princess Taiping was killed by Wu Zetian.
How much did Wu Zetian love Princess Taiping?
Princess Taiping married for the first time, married to Emperor Gaozong of Tang's nephew Xue Shao.
As Empress Wu Zetian's favorite daughter, the wedding scene was quite spectacular, the convoy was several kilometers long, and in order to make way for the convoy, everything along the way was dismantled.
After Princess Taiping married Xue Shao, Wu Zetian was still not satisfied, she thought that her daughter was not the original match, worried that her daughter would suffer in the past, she ordered xue Shao's original match to be directly executed, so that his daughter was the original match.
Princess Taiping was also flattered to have such a mother, and she was worried that if she was not satisfied with the sacrifice of the puppet, his mother might directly execute Xue Shao's entire family.
I have to say that at this time, the Princess Taiping did not have the slightest arrogance, and she did not go out of the house for 7 years after marrying.
She fell in love with Xue Shaoen, gave birth to 4 children, and lived the life of a husband and a godson every day.
However, such a day did not last long after all, and Wu Zetian felt that marrying Xue Shao was too wronged for his daughter, and then ordered Xue Shao to be imprisoned and starved to death.
Except for a few children born to Princess Taiping, all the other clan members of the Xue family were killed.
At this time, Princess Taiping was also blindfolded, and did not understand why his mother did this?
She even began to resent her mother.
However, Wu Zetian did not care about Princess Taiping's thoughts.
Soon after, Wu Zetian married princess Taiping, who was still widowed, to her nephew Wu Youji (武攸暨).
This time, Wu Zetian simply laid the groundwork in advance, and executed Wu Youji's wife in advance before Princess Taiping married Wu Youji (ji).
In this way, her daughter married and became the original match, and two months later Wu Zetian officially ascended the throne as emperor.
Wu Youji's family was even more afraid, and they had to take a detour when they saw Princess Taiping on weekdays.
Wu Youji could not do anything about this, and he was as cautious and humble as possible to save the life of his family.
However, this time, Princess Taiping was even more resentful of Wu Zetian's arranged marriage, and after the second marriage, Princess Taiping wantonly raised male pets, interacted with courtiers, and for the sake of power, gave her proud male favor to Wu Zetian (that is, Zhang Changzong of lotus liulang).
In this regard, Wu Zetian was also very happy, and slowly began to let Princess Taiping enter the court to make decisions.
Princess Taiping, who entered the court, joined forces with Shangguan Wan'er and began to dominate the government, and all officials who opposed or displeased were framed and imprisoned by them.
However, at this time, Princess Taiping was different from others in that although Princess Taiping was the daughter-in-law of the martial family, she had always been concerned about the Li family.
In 705, Zhang Kamzhi, a supporter of the Li family and chancellor, launched a mutiny and forced Wu Zetian to abdicate to the crown prince Li Xian.
Princess Taiping was awarded the title of "Princess Taiping of Zhenguo" for her contribution to the maintenance of the Li family.
After Li Xian's restoration, Princess Taiping began to help Li Xian assist in the imperial government and actively participated in the affairs of the court.
Li Xian also respected him very much, and also deliberately issued an edict to exempt her from paying tribute to the prince and others.
Li Xian, who had only been emperor for four years, was poisoned by Empress Wei.
To this end, Princess Taiping and Li Longji launched the "Tanglong Coup" to kill Empress Wei and make Li Longji's father Li Dan emperor. Li Longji was made crown prince.
Later, Princess Taiping fought with Li Longji and gradually turned into opposition.
Princess Taiping's forces gradually occupied half of the imperial court, and then launched a coup d'état, but unfortunately she was informed by her son Xue Chongjian to Li Longji, and the mutiny failed and was captured.
Later, Li Longji asked Xue Chongjian to kill Princess Taiping himself.
Princess Taiping was very distressed to see her son let her die, and at this time she was not bitter because of failure, but because of her son's weakness.
Princess Taiping said to Li Longji, "I can die, can I spare my family, they are innocent." ”
Li Longji did not answer Princess Taiping's words, in his heart, Princess Taiping's family was bound to die.
At this time, Xue Chongjian saw that Li Longji's face was not too good-looking, and he was anxious, afraid that Li Longji would even kill him.
Xue Chongjian hurriedly said to Princess Taiping, "Just kill yourself quickly, at least I'm still alive, aren't you?" ”
Princess Taiping looked at her weak, stubborn and secretly born son, and tearfully drew her sword and killed herself.
Li Longji also did not kill Xue Chongjian, but only asked Xue Chongjian to change his name and surname.
Princess Taiping's ending can be said to be due to Wu Zetian, who sacrificed her daughter's happiness for her own power.
The later Princess Taiping was also because she knew Wu Zetian's intentions, and since she could not resist, she imitated it, which led to a later fight with her nephew Li Longji.
From another point of view, Princess Taiping also came step by step to the point of power and opposition, which was related to her own efforts.
