<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="34" > Li Zu'e: Borrow the recipient, the double moth is a little longer</h1>
China is known as the "four beauties" and "five beautiful queens", the former is recognized, is Chinese know; and the latter is somewhat vague, many people are the noble concubine Yang Yuhuan is also included, this is definitely not right.
According to the usual saying, these five Empresses refer to Xia Ji in the Spring and Autumn Period, Empress Zhen Mi of Emperor Wen of Wei, Empress Li Zu'e of Emperor Wenxuan of Northern Qi, Empress Xiao of the Sui Dynasty, and Empress Zhang Yan of Emperor Mingxizong; but this is not entirely true from the perspective of an empress.
Xia Ji claimed to be "three queens, seven wives, and nine widows", in fact, she only had an affair with the three monarchs, and she did not have the reality of an empress herself, and was not an empress in the true sense; and Zhen Mi was posthumously honored as Empress Wenzhao after her son Cao Rui took the throne, and was only a concubine of Cao Pi before she died, so this is a big deal of discussion.
Compared with the "four beauties", the recognition of these "five beautiful queens" is much lower, especially Li Zu'e, the people who know her should be very few, it is no wonder, in the great division of the Southern and Northern Dynasties period, the Five Hu Sixteen Kingdoms, even the emperor does not recognize a few, let alone this empress.
After the Battle of Shuishui, Former Qin collapsed, and the Northern Wei, later founded by the Xianbei tribes, unified the north, but soon split into two states, Eastern Wei and Western Wei; then, Eastern Wei was replaced by Northern Qi, and Western Wei was replaced by Northern Zhou. This is the "Northern Dynasty" of the Southern and Northern Dynasties of Wei and Jin, and Li Zu'e was the empress of Gao Yang, the founding emperor of Northern Qi.
Northern Qi is the most famous absurd dynasty in China, also known as the perverted dynasty or the beast dynasty, so that posterity suspects that the Gao family of the emperor has a mental illness genetic, the emperor of the entire dynasty is crazy, as a woman in this dynasty palace, it is destined to be sad.
Li Zu'e's brilliance is certain, otherwise, when the emperor's three brothers, will not all like her, the history books are very rare to describe the appearance of women, but in her biography, but gave a four-word comment of "Rong De is very beautiful", that is, not only "appearance", but also contains "morality", are quite outstanding, plus a "very" word, said a very high evaluation of her.
The Northern Qi Shu Wenxuan Li Hou Biography says that she is "qiubo good-looking, divine light moving", belonging to "the ancient, the so-called transcendent Liye." ”
She was born in a large family of the Li clan in Zhao County, namely the Longyao people of present-day Hebei, and was favored by the Northern Wei chancellor Gao Huan, married to her second son, Gao Yang, who was then the Duke of Taiyuan County, and was made empress after Gao Yang established Northern Qi.
When he first married, Gao Shi had not yet usurped the throne and ascended the throne, but Gao Yang's brother Gao Cheng had already held the authority, like Cao Cao, and could establish himself as emperor at any time.
Seeing that his sister-in-law was so stunning, this Gao Cheng's heart was itchy, as long as he saw Li Zu'e, he would flirt, and Gao Yang could not do anything in his eyes, and could only bury the hatred deep in his heart.
However, when Gao Cheng was preparing for all the usurpation of the throne, he was suddenly assassinated, Li Zu'e luckily escaped the disaster, and her husband Gao Yang picked up a large cake that fell from the sky and became emperor, as revenge, the first thing he did on the throne was to rape Gao Cheng's empress and his sister-in-law, on the grounds that Gao Cheng had raped many of his wives and concubines.
Gao Yang is a humble Han Chinese, but also a fighter among tyrants, its degree of cruelty and absurdity can be said to be second to none in history, but it is still good for Li Zu'e, at least respected, the history books are: "The emperor is good at tarting concubines, and even there are killers, only after the only respect." ”
However, Gao Yang was too addicted to wine, burping at the age of 30, and since then Li Zu'e has started her tragic life, her son Gao Yin inherited the unification, she became the empress dowager, and soon her son was killed, and she also lost the status of empress dowager.
Gao Yang's younger brother Gao Zhan succeeded to the throne, he was the same as that Gao Yang, he had long coveted Li Zu'e's beauty, so as soon as he ascended to the throne, he sought to be a widow, and Li Zu'e of course vowed to die, but under the threat of killing her son if she did not comply, for the sake of her son, she could only submit to humiliation.
Since then, Gao Zhan has been holding his sister-in-law who is absolutely beautiful all day long, and he can't help but be overjoyed, and the night and night are boundless in spring.
Li Zu'e is a very traditional woman, she has always been deeply ashamed of this incest, when she was pregnant, she was both shocked and afraid, ashamed and ashamed, and panicked all the time, and she has been closed to the door, especially when her son knows and comes to the door to criticize, she is even more ashamed.
When she gave birth to her daughter who was incestuous with her brother-in-law, all kinds of tangled emotions made her a little crazy, and as a result, the baby girl died as soon as she was born, and the history books recorded four words for this, called "Giving birth to a daughter does not lift." ”
Under ancient medical conditions, the infant mortality rate was very high, but these four words recorded in the history books set off a huge wave for Li Zu'e.
What is "not lifting"? There are many interpretations, and I think that in this context, it should be explained as "no parenting"; however, I don't know when it began, and posterity has always said that she strangled her own daughter, which has become her biggest stain.
Anyway, I don't quite believe that Li Zu'e can strangle her own daughter, you know, she is a devout Buddhist, and she has just experienced the pain of losing her son, how to give a cruel hand to this newborn daughter, it does not make sense of logic.
However, she let it go and let her fend for herself in order to get revenge on Gao Zhan, it was possible, and it was also possible that at this time she was already a little insane, not allowing the next person to enter the house to wait, and a tragedy occurred in the case of losing her mind, but definitely not strangling her daughter, unless she was already crazy.
When Gao Zhan heard that his daughter was dead, he was furious, and he raised his knife to the door to retaliate, saying, "Er kill my daughter, why don't I kill Er'er?" In front of Li Zu'e, he beat her son to death.
Anger still angry, he stripped off all of Li Zu'e's clothes, "naked and chaotic, the sky is endless." "Beat her to the point of bleeding, and then put her in a bag and dump her in the cold stream of the gully, it seems that this Gao Zhan believes that her daughter was killed by Li Zu'e."
Fortunately, he was found and rescued and sent to The Miaoshengni Temple, and since then Li Zu'e has cut her hair as a nun, accompanied by the green lantern ancient Buddha, and the prosperity has ended, only the mountain wind has accompanied this poor woman day and night.
Later, Li Zu'e had no following, and quietly disappeared in the long river of history, only saying that there is a wild history that after the fall of Northern Qi, she became a prisoner of northern Zhou outside the country, and during the Sui Dynasty, she was able to return to her hometown of Zhao County, which was the life of Li Zu'e.
While feeling sorry for Li Zu'e, there was one thing I didn't quite understand, imagining that if the ferocious Gao Zhan directly included her in the concubine sequence, wouldn't the later things happen, which was definitely not a problem for Gao Zhan, who had a humble bloodline, and he wouldn't have any honorary scruples.
If this is the case, Li Zu'e may not have any psychological burden, but perhaps as a Han person, as a former empress and empress dowager, she will never agree, but under the premise of protecting her son, she is forced to helplessly incest, can this be said that if she is not confined to the traditional concept of the Han family, and meets this beast person, it will cause this tragic consequence.
Gao Zhan was a strange person, he allowed his empress hu to steal people, but he had a deep affection for Li Zu'e, and he also valued the children he had with her, otherwise he would not be angry with this thunder; moreover, he did not want to put Li Zu'e to death, otherwise, if he cut it off with a knife, wouldn't it be simple.
It is a pity that Li Zu'e, born beautiful and beautiful, was "unfortunately born in Ji Shi, and married to the rude family of the Gao clan, and was insulted, almost to the point of jade and flowers." Even more tragic than Xiao Meiniang, who claimed to be the "Six Taste Emperor Pill", at least, Empress Xiao would not be so miserable by domestic violence
Li Zu'e had a rough half of her life, from the mother of a country to the manipulation of others, and then became a nun, but even if she hid in a nunnery, she did not escape the fate of being captured, became a servant woman, and finally returned to ordinary.
I hope that after she returns to her hometown, she will be able to live a good life, even if she is an ordinary peasant woman, if she can enjoy her old age in an environment without war and no fighting, and have a stable ending, then it is also Ayato Buddha.
