Introduction of the Empress yuwen yu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty
The Northern Zhou Emperor Yuwen Yu was the eldest son of Yuwen Tai, who was promoted to the throne by Yuwen Hu, and during his reign was controlled by Yuwen Hu, and Yuwen Yu became a puppet god in history. Although Yuwen Yu did not get the opportunity to be pro-government during his reign, there were still many good stories about his relationship with the empress, but unfortunately, the empress passed away shortly after Yuwen Yu ascended the throne, leaving many regrets.
According to history, Yuwen Yu had only one empress, and she was the eldest daughter of The Northern Zhou Dynasty Sima Duguxin. When DuGushi married Yuwen Yu, he was not yet the emperor, but from the perspective of identity background, the combination of the two was definitely a talented girl, and the door was right.
After Yuwen Yu ascended the throne, he made DuguShi empress, but unfortunately, Dugushi died after being empress for three months. The two did not have a child under their knees, and according to the records of the Book of Zhou, it is likely that the cause of the death of the Lone Queen was difficult childbirth. After the death of the Dugu Empress, she was given the title of Dugu Mingjing Empress.
Although Yuwen Yu and Empress Dowager Mingjing had no children, Yuwen Yu had four children under his knees, namely Yuwen Xian the Prince of Bila, Yuwen Zhen the Prince of Song, and Yuwen Shi the Prince of Song, and a daughter, Princess Henan, who later married Wei Chijing. The history only records the names of Yuwen Yu's children, but there is no detailed record of his life deeds. After Yang Jian established the Sui Dynasty, he feared that the yuwen family would restore the Northern Zhou regime, so he executed Yuwen Xian, Yuwen Zhen, and Yu Wenshi.
How Yuwen Yu died
In 557, Yuwen Yu deposed Yuwen Jue and established Yuwen Yu as the new emperor of Northern Zhou, and in the same year Yuwen Yu ascended the throne as the new ruler of Northern Zhou. After succeeding to the throne, Yuwen Yu tried to seize power from Yuwen Hu, Yuwen Hu ostensibly handed over power to Yuwen Yu's hands, and after taking power, Yuwen Yu began to reform continuously, but the Northern Zhou military power was still in Yuwen Hu's hands.
Seeing that Yuwen Yu was out of control, Yuwen Yu ordered the people to poison Yuwen Yu's food and poison him to death. In 560, Yuwen Yu died violently at the age of 27. Before Yuwen Yu's death, he wrote an oral edict passing the throne to his younger brother Yuwen Yong.
