Why is Wu Zetian her enemy? Because when Shangguan Waner was born, her grandfather Shangguan Yi intervened in the marriage contradiction between Tang Gaozong and Wu Zetian, and drafted the imperial edict to abolish Wu Zetian as emperor. Later, after Wu Zetian came to power, she retaliated against the Shangguan Yi family and killed them all, leaving only Shangguan Waner and her mother, but they were all sent to the palace to be handmaids. As we all know, in ancient times, handmaids were given away, sold or executed at will, and their status was extremely low. However, the fate of Shangguan Waner is different. Although she has been a maid in the palace since she was a child, she has been working hard to read poetry and books. 14 years old, she attracted the attention of Wu Zetian because of her outstanding appearance, brilliant talent and beautiful calligraphy. Wu Zetian asked her to stay with her and be responsible for the paperwork.
As one of the closest people to the emperor, Shangguan Waner was inevitably involved in the whirlpool of court battles. At this time, she showed a strong political skill and pleased almost all the "heavyweights". In Tang Zhongzong, Shangguan Waner is even more red and purple. Under her advocacy, world literature flourished. She not only writes poems for the Queen, but also serves as an evaluation judge. Became a powerful woman.
Shangguan Waner is also a woman. If she is a woman, she cannot avoid marriage and love life. As the saying goes, talent and ability are important, but a good job is better than a good marriage. Judging from the people who Shangguan Waner married, it is estimated that most women dreamed of getting married at that time. Shangguan Waner married two emperors, Tang Gaozong and Tang Zhongzong:/kloc-was named a gifted scholar in Tang Gaozong at the age of 0/3 and Zhao Rong in Tang Zhongzong at the age of 42. Although Shangguan Waner was a talent of the Supreme Emperor, she was probably hand-picked by Wu Zetian, in order to give her a birthright and get rid of her official handmaiden status. Zhongzong and Shangguan Waner are also political marriages in name only. Although he doted on her, it was not the emperor's love for his concubine, but a connivance. They are more like nominal couples. Shangguan Waner can even live in a private house outside the palace.
So Shangguan Waner has no favorite object? Or in modern terms, it is the male god in mind. Many people may have seen some unofficial history. It is estimated that in addition to the husbands of two emperors, Shangguan Waner also has emotional entanglements with many men, such as Li Xian, Wu Sansi, Cui Fei and Li Longji. It is said that Shangguan Waner once secretly loved Wu Zetian's face Zhang Changzong, which annoyed Wu Zetian and was sentenced to face-lifting punishment.
However, Shangguan Waner does have a favorite object in his heart, not a prime minister named Li. According to "Beifu Zhi", Shangguan Waner was attracted by the appearance and temperament of Prime Minister Li, and her heart was filled with emotion. This prime minister named Li is Li Jiongxiu, and his age is closest to Shangguan Waner. Unfortunately, he and Shangguan Waner failed to develop feelings, because his mother secretly loved Li Jiong-xiu, and he was forced to marry that unremarkable woman.
Finally, Shangguan Waner's life ending is also very tragic. Because she values power too much, the power in her hand is like opium, and she can't stop. She was addicted to power, involved in the court struggle, and was finally killed by Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, although she is brilliant, she has always been a spiritual tool for contemporary figures, because she caters to music all her life, lives selflessly and has a tragic fate.
