There is such a person in history, his mother is his father's favorite concubine, his ex-wife is also his father's favorite concubine, who is he?
This question is simply too simple, presumably it is difficult for the vast number of literary friends, is not li mao the king of Shou?
You really don't have to say, you are really right, it is King Shou, and in the Old Book of Tang his name is Li Mao, but after the investigation and archaeological discovery of Ouyang Xiu in the Song Dynasty, historians were surprised to find that he was not called Li Mao, but Li Mao.

Li Xuan was undoubtedly a tragic figure of the Tang Dynasty, the crystallization of the blood of the two dynasties, who was recommended by the chancellor Li Linfu after Concubine Wu Huifei plotted to depose the crown prince, but eventually lost the throne.
This reminds me of dolgun in the TV series "The Secret History of Filial Piety", the loss of his mother, the loss of his position, the love of the lover was taken away, perhaps this screenwriter is to learn from Li Zhen's experience, but unfortunately Li Zhen does not have the talent of Dolgun, his fate is to cross the sky like a comet, flash in an instant, and then go to silence.
Li Longji had three important women in his life, namely the original Wang clan, the favored concubine Wu clan and the Yang clan, the Wang clan was Li Longji's pioneering period of The Xiannei assistant, assisted him in achieving great things, Li Longji took the throne and crowned him as empress, with the rise of the Wu clan, the Wang clan was childless, so her position in the middle palace was increasingly unstable.
Wu Shi was the granddaughter of Wu Zetian and the daughter of Wu Youzhi of Dai prefecture, and the stepfather of Princess Taiping, Wu Youji, was Wu Youzhi's brother.
Actor Li Jianqun plays Wu Shi
Therefore, Wu Shi is Li Longji's distant cousin, and the age difference between the two is 14 years. When Wu Entered the palace, she was given the title of Concubine, and was deeply favored by Li Longji, and successively gave birth to Li Yi, the King of Xia Mourning, Li Min the King of Huaimei, and Princess Shangxian, and Li Longji loved these three children very much, but they died prematurely at a very young age.
At the beginning of his life, he asked The Imperial Concubine Yuan to be adopted in the mansion, and the concubine was named Her Son. — Biography of the Sons of Emperor Xuanzong of the Old Book of Tang ▪
When Wu Jieyu gave birth to her third son, Li Longji named him Li Qing, and in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of his two brothers and one sister, Li Longji handed him over to his eldest brother Li Xian and his eldest sister-in-law Yuan to raise.
Li Xian was not an ordinary eldest brother, he was the eldest son of Li Dan of Ruizong, after his father ascended the throne, he tried his best to humble the position of prince and his third brother Li Longji, Li Dan adopted his son's suggestion and named him the King of Song, Li Longji had great respect for his eldest brother after he took the throne, and renamed him king of Ning.
Li Xian in film and television dramas
Raising Li Qing by these two shows that Li Longji attaches great importance to this son. Because he was the eighteenth son of the emperor, he was called Eighteen Lang.
Li Qing grew up carefree under the careful care of her great uncle and great aunt, and in the court, her mother also relied on the emperor's favor to continue to advance, until the twelfth year of the new century, she finally overthrew Empress Wang, and the crime was the same as that of Empress Wang of Tang Gaozong, all of which were "fu disgust".
Empress Wang died of injustice only three months after she was deposed as a Shuren, and Li Longji ordered her to be buried with a ceremony of one pin. Wu Jieyu, on the other hand, rose to prominence and was crowned as a concubine by Li Longji.
Emperor Xuanzong thought that the four stars of the empress dowager, one of which was correct, should not have more four concubines, but changed the position of three concubines: Huifei I, Lifei II, and Huafei III. - "Records of the Officials of the Old Book of ▪ Tang"
Zhao Lifei in the film and television drama
Prior to this, the fourth concubine of the harem of the Tang Dynasty was Gui Shu Dexian, and after Empress Wang was deposed, Li Longji was restructured and changed to the third concubine of HuiLihua, with Huifei as the first, in addition, the birth mother of the crown prince Zhao shi was Li Fei, and the birth mother of the eldest son of the emperor Liu Shi was Hua Fei.
The careful Wenyou must have found a strange point, before the queen was childless, naturally the eldest son was appointed as the crown prince, why is the eldest son not the crown prince?
The emperor's eldest son, Li Chun, should indeed be made crown prince according to the etiquette system, but he was not well described because he was injured in the face by his prey when he went out hunting, so Li Longji skipped him and directly made li Ying, the second son of the emperor, the crown prince.
In March of the thirteenth year, he was crowned king of Shou and entered the palace. — Biography of the Sons of Emperor Xuanzong of the Old Book of Tang ▪
In the thirteenth year of the new century, Li Qing and his two brothers and three brothers were simultaneously crowned kings, and his title was King Shou. At this time, he was able to return to the palace to live, and Concubine Wu had already given birth to several more children.
Actress He Saifei plays Wu Huifei
It is said that Empress Wang has been deposed, and Concubine Wu naturally wants to go further, and the position of Concubine Huifei is not her purpose, what she wants most is the throne of the Empress.
Of course, Li Longji was very willing, but this matter was unanimously opposed by the courtiers, and the reasons given did make Li Longji unable to deny it.
One, of course, is the fear of the "Wu clan" by the group of scholars, this script is too familiar, first with the "Fu disgust" to depose the queen, and then changed to the Wu clan, the next step is to oust the prince who is not born of the empress, and establish Li Qing as the prince. This set of "abolishing the king and liwu" drama is not exactly yesterday's reappearance, which is also too frightening.
Second, the crown prince Li Zhongnai was the adopted son of Empress Wang, and since Empress Wang was deposed, this prince also lost his legal status and should naturally abdicate, but the current crown prince Li Ying was not like this. He was made crown prince by the emperor in the order of the eldest and youngest in the order of the eldest and the youngest in the case that the eldest brother could not take the throne for reasonable reasons, which made sense from the point of view of etiquette. Therefore, even if Empress Wang was deposed, it would not implicate Li Ying.
Prince Li Ying in the film and television drama
If concubine Wu was forcibly supported as empress, Li Qing would become the de facto eldest son of the concubine, the empress had her own son, but the prince was born of a concubine, which of course would have a huge hidden danger.
Listening to the courtiers' advice, Li Longji, who was not old and confused at the time, decided not to appoint Wu Huifei as empress, but in order to "compensate" Aifei, he honored Wu Huifei's treatment, making her no different from the empress. His mother failed to attack the throne, and Li Qing rubbed shoulders with the throne for the first time.
Ying's mother, Zhao Lifei, was a talented person, good at singing and dancing, and Xuanzong was fortunate to be in Luzhou. — Biography of the Sons of Emperor Xuanzong of the Old Book of Tang ▪
Although Princess Wu Huifei did not become empress, her favor was increasingly prosperous, and although Zhao Lifei was the second in the harem and the birth mother of the crown prince, she was from a humble origin and could not compete with Concubine Wu Huifei at all, and soon fell out of favor, and died depressed in the fourteenth year of the New Century.
After Zhao Lifei's death, Concubine Wu Huifei was well aware of her situation, and if she could not raise her son to the position of crown prince, after Li Ying ascended the throne, she would inevitably count the death of her mother's concubine on her own head, so that she and her children would suffer.
Shou Wang and Yang Shi in the film and television drama
In the twenty-third year of the new century, Li Qing, the King of Shou, reached the age of great marriage, and he was renamed Li Zhen.
Regarding whether the name of King Shou is Li Mao or Li Mao, historians have explored it, "Li Mao" is from the Old Book of Tang and the New Book of Tang, and for a long time it was believed that King Shou was called Li Mao.
However, in the Song Dynasty Ouyang Xiu's "Collection of Ancient Records and Tails", tang Xuanzong's "Qunchen Please Establish a Moral Scripture Recitation" is recorded, which contains the names of Xuanzong's sons, plus the text on the inscription of Wu Huifei, all of which say that the name of King Shou is "琩".

Later, the epitaph of Li Yingxuan, the daughter of King Shou of Yangcheng County, was discovered, which once again confirmed that King Shou was indeed not called Li Mao, because "琩" and "瑁" were very similar in glyphs, and in ancient times, there were many consecutive strokes written with brushes, and it was normal to make mistakes when copying records.
In the same year that King Shou changed his name to Li Xuan, Li Huan married Yang Shi, the daughter of Yang Xuanyan, the sihu of ShuZhou, and the couple had a very good life.

On the other hand, Princess Wu huifei and her son-in-law Yang Huan (Li Huan's sister Princess Xianyi) began to criticize the crown prince Li Ying, and Li Longji's new favorite Li Linfu also joined the camp of Concubine Hui.
After several rounds of fighting, Wu Huifei and Li Linfu finally overthrew the crown prince Li Ying, and eliminated Li Yao, the fifth son of emperor E, and Li Ju, the eighth son of emperor Guang, who were close to Li Ying, and were not only deposed as shu people, but also directly killed by Li Longji.
On the afternoon of December, Princess Huiwu of the Wu clan, posthumously honored as Empress Zhenshun, was buried in Jingling. - Old Book ▪ of Tang Xuanzong Benji
After the wrongful death of the three princes, Concubine Wu Huifei felt fear from time to time, and then had a vision, believing that it was the ghost of the three princes, worried and fearful, and eventually became ill, and died of illness in December of that year, Li Longji was very sad, and posthumously named Princess Ai as Empress Zhenshun and buried her with the courtesy of empress, which was considered to be the wish of Princess Aifei before her death.
Li Zhen and her brother and sister were also very sad, no matter how many bad things their mother had done before she died, but after all, she was their mother. Li Xuan would not have thought that his mother's death not only reduced his hopes of becoming a prince by more than half, but also caused him to suffer an unimaginable humiliation.
Prince Li Heng in the film and television drama
Although Princess Wu died, her power in the former dynasty was still there, and Li Linfu and Yang Huan and others continued to choose to support Li Huan as crown prince, but Li Longji eventually chose to obey the etiquette and made the emperor's third son Li Jie (later renamed Li Heng) the crown prince. At this point, Li Xuan had lost the possibility of succession.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Prince of Wei took the crown prince to marry the Princess of Qi, and when he discovered the beauty of his daughter-in-law, he sent his son to Zheng Guo and seized the opportunity to occupy his daughter-in-law, who was the famous Xuanjiang, which is the origin of the idiom "the ugliness of Xintai".
After that, due to the absurdity and confusion of Wei Xuangong, the Weiguo fell into many years of chaos because of the dispute over the throne, and the Weiguo, which was still relatively strong, was tossed around, and the national strength was not as good as before. The Western Han Dynasty literary scholar Liu Xiang attributed the blame for Wei Guo's restlessness to Xuanjiang, how absurd.
Xuan Jiang in the film and television drama
A woman who should have been pitied became a sinner, and Wei Xuangong, who really broke the law and caused chaos, and then directly led to the country's civil strife, became a victim of the demon concubine's disaster to the country, Liu Xiang's views are really speechless.
Who would have thought that thousands of years later, the ugliness of the new stage would be staged again, the plot would be slightly different, but the ending would be strikingly similar.
After Princess Wu Huifei died of illness, there was no one in the harem who could satisfy Li Longji, so some people said that Princess Shou was beautiful and could fill the back court, and Li Longji heard that he had his daughter-in-law summoned into the palace, and he liked it at first sight, but in order to prevent gossip, Li Longji did some measures.
October 28 Koshi, Yuki Onsen Palace. With Princess Yang of Shou as a Taoist priest, the number is Taizhen. - "New Book of Tang Ruizong ▪ Xuanzong Benji"
Li Longji thought that the late mother Dou Shi prayed for the blessing of Princess Shou to become a Taoist priest, and the name Taizhen was also the origin of Princess Taizhen, li Zhen was very sad about his father's ugly behavior, but he had no way to stop it.

Just before and after this incident, Li Xuan's adoptive mother YuanFei and adoptive father Li Xian passed away one after another, Li Longji remembered his eldest brother Ende, posthumously named Li Xian as emperor and yuan concubine as Empress Gong, Li Xuan asked himself to serve the funeral of the eldest uncle and his wife, and Li Longji agreed.
Although Li Xuan's move was out of the adopted son's filial piety to his adoptive parents, there was also the meaning of implicitly expressing dissatisfaction to his father, Li Longji of course knew that his son had resentment, but after all, he had loved his son for many years, and it was indeed his own fault, so he went with his son.

Shou Wang and Wei Fei in the film and television drama
In the fourth year of Tianbao, Li Longji mated Wei Zhaoxun's third daughter Wei Zhaoxun, who was from Jingzhao Weishi, to Li Xuan as a concubine, which was an indirect announcement of the end of Li Zhen's marriage with Yang Shi, and then officially crowned Yang Shi as a noble concubine.
Because of Yang Guifei's favor, the Yang family can be described as a chicken dog ascending to heaven, Li Longji deliberately married Li Guifei's sister Princess Taihua to Yang Guifei's cousin Yang Kun, I really don't know how embarrassing Li Zhen will be when she sees her brother-in-law.
Of course, the history books do not record Li Zhen's reaction to his father's series of actions, but dissatisfaction and resentment are definitely there, since his father occupied the Yang family, Li Huan began to indulge in wine, the children are more and more born, the aforementioned Yangcheng County Lord is Li Zhen's 22nd daughter, and her mother is the shouwang heir concubine Wei Shi.
There are still records of this, and the children who are not recorded do not know how many more.
After the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Li Longji fled from Shu with Yang Guifei and some of his sons and daughters, ministers, and so on, and then the Ma Song Rebellion broke out in Ma Songpo, Yang Guozhong was killed and Yang Guifei hanged herself.

In the end, Li Xuan followed his father into Shu, and later returned to Chang'an, until he died of illness in the tenth year of the Calendar, and was posthumously given the title of Taifu by his nephew Li Yu, who was about 55 years old.
Li Zhen is a historical tragic figure, his mother sought a non-divided position for him, and finally died of worry, with the death of his mother, he gradually stopped being favored by his father, and the position of prince was also eternal with him.
What is even more painful is that his wife is again favored by his father, staging a Tang Dynasty version of the "Ugly of Xintai", his father's two favorite concubines almost determine the fate of his life, and Li Zhen can do nothing but anesthetize herself as a alcoholic woman.
