Yao Cang was the emperor of Later Qin, while Empress Mao was the empress of Former Qin. When it comes to the relationship between Yao Cang and Empress Mao, it can be described as incompatible. Because of the different interests they represented, Empress Mao was the empress of Former Qin in the Sixteen Kingdoms of Chinese history, while Yao Cang was the emperor who overthrew the Former Qin regime and founded Later Qin.
The connection between Yao Cang and Empress Mao occurred during the fall of Former Qin and the founding of The Later Qin Dynasty. Because the Former Qin army had won the previous war, it relaxed its vigilance, and as a result, Yao Cang led the army to sneak attack, because it happened at night and the Former Qin army did not have many troops, and it was soon invaded by Yao Cang's army, and even if Empress Mao led the army to stubbornly resist, it would not help.
After the battle, Empress Mao became a prisoner. Yao Cang's army was very happy, because they captured Empress Mao, a very beautiful woman, and brought Empress Mao back to their barracks, at this stage, Empress Mao suffered the humiliation of her soldiers, and finally she was tied up and sent to Yao Cang. At this time, Empress Mao had completely lost her image, her hair was messy, her body was still dirty, and her beauty disappeared in an instant. However, Yao Cang knew her beauty and offered to ask Empress Mao to be his concubine, and Empress Mao, full of righteousness, resolutely refused to accept Yao Cang's conditions, but instead scolded Yao Cang bitterly to express her loyalty to Former Qin. Even so, Yao Cang was still not dead-hearted, and no matter how Empress Mao scolded him, he did not torture Empress Mao. But in the end, Empress Mao still had to swear to die to express her sincerity, and Yao Cang saw this scene and knew that her idea would not come true, so she dragged Empress Mao out and beheaded her.

Yao Cang was scared to death by the nightmare
There was a specific reason why Yao Cang was scared to death by the nightmare, because Yao Cang was not so honorable and upright when he became emperor, and he became emperor after killing his former master Yao Jian. Moreover, Yao Cang also knew that his approach was very inhumane, even if he had become the emperor, his heart was still very afraid, after all, he had done a very unfortunate thing.
It is precisely because this matter has been haunting his mind for a long time, Yao Cang often has nightmares at night, and nightmares are not just once or twice, but long-term nightmares, which makes Yao Cang's nerves tense all the time. The impact of the nightmare on Yao Cang gradually deepened, making him enter a state of madness, and finally the negative effects of the nightmare broke out after a long backlog, reaching a certain level, and finally Yao Cang died because of the panic and fear in his heart, simply put, he was scared to death by the nightmare. The reason why he had been haunted by nightmares for a long time was because he had killed the emperor of Former Qin by improper means.
Through Yao Cang's nightmares, it can be seen that he still has a bit of conscience, but because he is timid and does not have the courage to admit his mistakes, he is still haunted by nightmares, because some people can behave like ordinary people even if they do bad things. But Yao Cang knows that he has done something wrong, his heart can not let go of this matter, so as long as he is idle, he will blame himself in his heart, this consciousness will still show itself in his sleep at night, and gradually this consciousness will not be able to get rid of it, the more he thinks about it, the more afraid he is, the impact of this long-term accumulation of consciousness is that the whole person cannot be like a normal person, he is full of this matter, until the state of madness, the end he faces is that he is scared to death by himself. Therefore, in history, there is a saying that Yao Cang was scared to death by nightmares.
