Xiao Guanyin was a very outstanding empress in the history of the Liao Dynasty and the most famous female poet in the Liao Palace. She was born into a prominent foreign family of the Liao Dynasty, her father Xiao Huifeng was the prime minister of the Northern Province, the King of Yan, and her mother was princess of the State of Yan, the daughter of Emperor Shengzong of Liao. Xiao Guanyin is beautiful, well-read, pipa was the first at that time, comprehensive literacy crowned in the Xiao women, she is deeply influenced by Han culture, and has the basis of khitan national style, both graceful and bold, coupled with the innate sense of superiority brought to her by the noble family lineage, creating her self-confident and proud characteristics, which is a proud daughter of heaven. When Emperor Daozong of Liao was still in the Eastern Palace, he admired her talent and virtuousness, and was appointed as a princess and later made empress, and he had a deep affection for Emperor Daozong of Liao. Just when she was immersed in the beautiful life of the Husband and Wife of the Taiping Dynasty, the "disaster that has not been written in the annals of history" came in an instant, which not only broke off the Liao Daozong from her, but even buried the beautiful life of the thirty-six years old.
Yelü Yixin was reused by the Liao Daozong for his merits in quelling the rebellion of emperor Yelü Chongyuan, and became a hot courtier, with power tilted to the opposition and all the subjects obeyed, only Xiao Guanyin's mother Xiao Clan did not want to live under Yi Xin because of the respect of the hou clan, and Yi Xin was quite unhappy. Soon, xiao Guanyin's son was made crown prince, and the prince Fadu Xiuming became famous all over the world. Yi Xin was deeply aware that the existence of Xiao Guanyin's mother and son was very unfavorable to him, so he had the idea of removing Xiao Guanyin and attacking the Hou clan and the prince.
After Emperor Daozong of Liao succeeded to the throne, he was self-conscious, indulging in hunting and abandoning the government, and the wise and virtuous Xiao Guanyin saw that the country was in danger under the ascension, and she hoped that Emperor Daozong of Liao would be able to focus on the community and exert great efforts to govern, so she repeatedly went to the rules and regulations to reveal the drawbacks of hunting indiscriminately misleading the country, and Liao Daozong was open-minded and accepted, but therefore alienated Xiao Guanyin, and the loving couple was separated from then on. Xiao Guanyin, under the gloom and sorrow, hoped to make Liao Daozong change his mind with his true feelings and literary poems, and wrote the famous "HuixinYuan", which zhao was the only one to play, and the affection was lingering and moving. However, Emperor Daozong of Liao did not change his mind because of this, but instead let the traitor Yi Xin grasp the handle, resulting in the disaster of the yellow bed.
The palace maid Shan Dengben was the concubine of the emperor's uncle Chongyuan, who later entered the harem and was good at playing the kite and pipa, but her skills were inferior to Zhao's, so she was not reused by Xiao Guanyin. Liao Daozong admired her tune and summoned her to play the kite, and Xiao Guanyin was jealous and found an excuse to drive her away, forbidding her to approach Liao Daozong, and Shan Deng hated Xiao Guanyin very much. It just so happened that her sister was Yi Xin's lover, so in order to avenge herself, she falsely accused Xiao Guanyin of having an affair with Zhao, and Yi Xin calculated that there was not enough evidence, so she ordered someone to write an obscene word "Ten Fragrant Words", and let Shan Deng dedicate it to Xiao Guanyin and ask her to handwrite it. Although Shan Deng was expelled, he could often see Xiao Guanyin, Xiao Guanyin's calligraphy was wonderful, Shan Deng flattered: This poem was composed by the empress of the Song Dynasty, and if you get the empress's handwritten royal letter, it can be called a second best. Xiao Guanyin, who grew up on horseback in the north, was unrestrained and very fond of this poem, not only copied it by hand, but also attached a poem "Huaigu": Only zhao family makeup was counted in the palace, and the two remnants of the cloud were mistaken for the King of Han. Only a piece of the moon knew that he had spied birds into the Sun.
Shan Deng was very excited to get Xiao Guanyin's handwritten letter, and went out to scold in the back: The old maid (referring to Xiao Guanyin) has ironclad evidence of the adultery case, the emperor's personality is jealous, sooner or later it will be your death date. Yi Xin also quickly ordered people to fabricate the word of framing, and Shangmi song exposed Xiao Guanyin's only adultery with Zhao. Emperor Daozong of Liao was furious and immediately summoned Xiao Guanyin to confront him, and Xiao Guanyin cried bitterly to defend himself, although the sentence was reasonable, but Liao Daozong could not listen to a word, and he was furious, and he took up the iron bone and beat Xiao Guanyin, almost dying. He also ordered Yi Xin, who had denounced Xiao Guanyin, to thoroughly investigate the case, and Yi Xin was severely tortured, and all kinds of torture took turns, and Zhao was the only one who could not bear the pain of life or death, and confessed to having an affair with the empress against his will.
After reading the case report, Liao Daozong still had some doubts, and Yi Xin Dang added fuel to the fire and pointed out that the only name of Zhao hidden in the poem "Huaigu" was the only ironclad evidence that the empress was concerned about Zhao. The suspicious and tyrannical side of Liao Daozong's character was unmistakable, and he ordered the clan to destroy Zhao Alone and give Xiao Guanyin death. Before Xiao Guanyin died, he asked to see the last side of Liao Daozong and was rejected, and in despair, he worshiped the residence of Liao Daozong and wrote the "Desperate Words": 嗟薄佑兮多幸, 羌作丽兮御. Chenghao Dome was overturned, and the moon was divided in recent days. After the support of the Jun Xi condensed position, suddenly the front star Xi QiYao. Although the yellow bed is tired, the temple is not guilty. If you want to go through the fish, take advantage of the Yang De Xi Tianfei. Woe to the woes of evil, and to be defiled and evil. He will cut his heart and look back at the day. Ning Shu's daughter was more and more gradual, and she suppressed the flying frost and struck down. Gu Children mourned and hurt the left and right. Gong Xi Yao Xi will fall, and Ku Wu will go to the Xi Pepper Room. Calling the heavens and the earth emaciated, hating the present and the ancient and the peaceful. Knowing that I will die when I am born, I love my life and love my life. Then he ended his life with a white practice, and the talented generation of empresses went away with a grievance, and the Liao Daozong was still angry, and he stripped Xiao Guanyin's clothes, wrapped himself in a straw mat, and returned the body to his mother's house as a humiliation.
Later historians did not put all the blame for Xiao Guanyin's death on Yi Xin, and also believed that Emperor Daozong of Liao also bore considerable responsibility, the emperor's closest relatives were only the empress and the crown prince, the traitors framed them without knowing it, and the loyal ministers did not realize it, which was also his narrow-minded and undecided fault. Such an assessment is indeed very fair.
The crown prince saw his mother framed to death, fell to the ground and wept bitterly, vowed to kill Yi Xin to avenge his mother, the struggle between the Yi Xin party and the princeling party became more and more fierce, there was bound to be a life-and-death struggle, Yi Xin preemptively attacked, carefully planned to murder the prince for treason, Liao Daozong was extremely dim-witted, ordered the prince to be deposed as a commoner and imprisoned, and soon the prince was assassinated by Yi Xin and reunited with his mother on the Huangquan Road. It was not until after the death of the indispensable Yi Xin that the wrongs of the crown prince could be revealed, and Emperor Daozong of Liao posthumously gave his only son the prince of Zhaohuai, who was reburied with the gift of heavenly son, and transferred all the father's love and guilt to the only imperial grandson. Since then, the rivers of the Liao Dynasty have declined, and the emperor's grandson has succeeded to the throne as Emperor Tianzuo, rehabilitated his grandmother Xiao Guanyin, posthumously given the title of Empress Xuanyi, and buried with Emperor Daozong of Liao, in retaliation for the opening of a coffin for Yi Xin. However, Emperor Tianzuo did not inherit the good genes of his grandmother and father, and was an emperor with ordinary qualifications and suspicious nature, who ignored political affairs and was powerless to prevent the Jurchen clan from becoming more and more powerful, and eventually became the king of the subjugated country, and Xiao Guanyin's mausoleum was also insulted by the Jin people.
