Nan was the first empress in Chinese history to be "naked". Because Changtaimei was forcibly occupied by the two uncles, she strangled her own daughter in shame.
Li Zu'e was originally a lady from a Confucian merchant family, she had a stunning appearance, a beautiful face and a noble temperament. When she grew up, she not only wrote poetry, but also played the piano.
Many people were amazed by her talent and beauty, and came to ask for kisses, but they were rejected by her one by one.
One day, Gao Yang, the second son of Gao Huan, the prime minister of Northern Qi, proposed to the Li family and said that he wanted to marry Li Zu'e. The Gao family was powerful, and the Li family did not dare to refuse this marriage, so they had to let Li Zu'e marry the Gao family. Li Zu'e was reluctant in her heart, but she was helpless.
Gao Yang has a gentle and weak personality, and has always kept a low profile before ascending the throne. His brother Gao Cheng had a murderous personality and repeatedly forced Li Zu'e to serve in his palace. Li Zu'e was repeatedly humiliated, but Gao Yang knew but did not dare to say anything, so he could only let Gao Cheng do evil.
Later, Gao Cheng was violently killed, and Gao Yang dared to reveal his true character, and he deposed Emperor Xiaojing, proclaimed himself emperor, and established the state of Northern Qi. Li Zu'e was finally able to officially become empress.
However, the good times did not last long, and Gao Yang gradually showed his crazy and brutal side. He was addicted to alcohol, often killing and killing people with a saw. He specially designed a huge copper pot, and whenever he wanted to kill someone, he would catch people and boil them alive.
Once, Gao Yang even made a big fuss at his biological mother Empress Dowager Lou after drinking, clamoring to marry the Empress Dowager to Hu Ren, so angry that Empress Dowager Lou fainted on the spot. Li Zu'e is worried every day, and she doesn't know when this crazy husband will hurt herself and her son.
After Gao Yang's violent death, the crown prince Gao Yin succeeded to the throne. Gao Yin has a weak character and weak strength. Seeing this, Gao Yang's two younger brothers, Gao Yan and Gao Zhan, deposed Gao Yin successively and proclaimed themselves emperors. After Gao Yan ascended the throne, he still did not worry about Gao Yin and designed to kill him.
Gao Zhan is cunning and cruel, and has long coveted Li Zu'e's beauty. He forced Li Zu'e to serve in the palace, and Li Zu'e could only endure humiliation and burden in order to save the life of his last son, Gao Shaode. Soon, Li Zu'e became pregnant unexpectedly and gave birth to a daughter.
Deeply distressed and humiliated, she strangled her daughter on impulse. Gao Zhan was furious, killed Gao Shaode in front of her, and then ordered Li Zu'e Ling Chi to be executed.
Fortunately, the palace maid rescued the dying Li Zu'e and sent her to a temple to become a nun. Since then, Li Zu'e has been depressed, praying all day long, seeking spiritual solace through religion. She has experienced too many storms and hopes to wash away the wounds of her soul through practice.
However, soon after the rebels captured the temple, Li Zu'e was taken captive and reduced to an official eunuch slave. She failed to find death several times, and was later trafficked to the green building. It was not until the establishment of the Sui Dynasty that she regained her freedom, but it was already a dead end.
Although her life is full of tragic encounters, Li Zu'e has always maintained a kind and soft heart. She is not willing to give up, she just wants to live and continue to move forward with her own strength.
She has experienced ups and downs, witnessed the change of dynasty and the joys and sorrows of ordinary people, and still upholds her own moral bottom line and sense of justice.
