There was a woman who was worshipped by Emperor Taizong all her life. She is the eldest grandson queen. Sun Qiang was the most respected woman in Tang Taizong's life. She has been very sensible since she was a child. At the age of thirteen, she married Li Shimin, the king of Qin. When he became emperor, Li Shimin often wanted to discuss state affairs with her. However, the queen's eldest grandson always avoids answering. She said, "The rooster just got home this morning. How dare you preview political affairs when you marry a woman? " It means that when a hen crows, it is unfortunate at home. As a woman, how can I interfere in the affairs of the country? Therefore, no matter what Tang Taizong asked, she kept her mouth shut. Then, is the eldest grandson a person who only cares about daily necessities, knows nothing about politics and is not interested in politics? Of course not. Give a few examples and you will understand.
First of all, as we all know, Li Shimin is a young hero. During the reign of King Qin, he and his father Li Yuan went to the Western Regions and made great achievements. Won several biggest competitors of Liyuan Group, such as Dou Jiande and Wang. He retired, ambitious and unwilling to be the king of Qin. He wants to be a crown prince and then an emperor. Driven by ambition, the contradiction between Li Shimin and his younger brother Prince Li, his younger brother Li Yuanji and his father Tang Yuan has accumulated over time. What should Shi do in this panic atmosphere of court crisis? She is cautious, very filial to Tang Gaozu, and has won the favor of his old people. At the same time, she also tried to woo the concubines around Tang Gaozu and establish good interpersonal relationships with them. What's the use? In fact, this is equivalent to drawing a lot of eyeliner around Tang Gaozu. In this way, Tang Gaozu and other sons' every move is in Li Shimin's eyes. As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know yourself, and you will win every battle." This division has made great contributions in mastering the enemy's situation.
Second, with the change of Xuanwu Gate, the contradiction between Li Shimin and his father and brother increased. Go into battle in person and encourage Chi to fight bravely. With the joint efforts of Qi Xin of both husband and wife, the transformation of Xuanwu Gate won in one fell swoop, ascended the throne of the emperor and became the queen.
Thirdly, after Li Shimin became emperor, he made great efforts. Worried that he was not doing well, he often said to ministers in a low voice, "If I have any questions, you must ask them and say them." Among courtiers, Wei Zhi did the best. Wei Zhi is a famous consultant, and he has the responsibility to advise Li Shimin. In addition, speaking directly often humiliated Emperor Taizong. One day in the temple, he finally annoyed Emperor Taizong. Emperor Taizong returned to the harem and was very angry. The more he thinks about it, the angrier he gets. He muttered, "I'm going to kill this Tian She Weng!" In other words, I must take good care of this hillbilly! Hearing these words, the grandson of the queen said nothing, Tingting turned into the house. After a while, she came out in a heavy robe and bowed to Emperor Taizong. That's the queen's royal dress for serious occasions. Emperor Taizong was surprised and asked, "Why did the queen give me such a big gift?" Queen Sun Chang said, "If I had heard of the Ming army, I would say so." As usual, Wei Zhi has the courage to stand up and show that you are a very wise emperor, so I specially congratulate you! Emperor Taizong was very happy to hear this, but he also understood the queen's intention: the queen wanted to convince herself. As an emperor, you should contain all rivers, just like the sea. How can you kill for a trifle?
Fourth, the eldest grandson is a virtuous person, but she gave up at the age of 36 because she was too worried and was in poor health. When she was desperate, both the emperor and the prince were in a hurry. When he was ill and went to the hospital, the prince volunteered. "If the medicine is ready, it will be rude. Please play the prisoner's pardon and try to get people on the road. " If you want to forgive this prisoner, you should spend more time with some monks and pray for her to prolong her life. But the Queen's eldest grandson said, "Death has its life, which is beyond human power. If happiness can be postponed, I am not evil. If doing good deeds is ineffective, why can he ask? " Express firm opposition. On her deathbed, she said to Emperor Taizong, "You shouldn't value your spouse. Now that my mother-in-law is an official, you can't let them be an official. " Be careful not to seize power. Why? Since ancient times, the management of relatives has not had a good result. If you are really good to me and my family, don't give them the opportunity to manage. She also said, don't bury me after I die. When I was alive, as a woman, it was bad for the world; Dead, how can I let the country waste money on my funeral? It's really a simple and universal queen model.
Let's give another example of a woman. This woman is comparable to Wu Zetian. She also won the favor of Emperor Taizong. Her surname is Xu Minghui, and she comes from an intellectual family. Xu Hui is a child prodigy. She can speak for five months, read Shi Mao and Sun Tzu's Art of War at the age of four, and write long articles at the age of eight. Just before and after Wu Zetian entered the palace, Xu Hui was also recruited into the palace to become a talent. Isn't this a lot like Wu Zetian? The starting point is the same. They are all talented people. After Xu Cai entered the palace, he knew how to read and was very concerned about state affairs. When she saw that after years of hard work and the decline of the country, she was a little complacent. She felt that the wind wouldn't blow for long, so she wrote a letter to Emperor Taizong, saying, "If you want to curb your ambition and give up your heart, you must be careful and finish it well. Cutting lights will increase your moral value. Now is to replace the past. " This is to convince Emperor Taizong to be arrogant and stick to the reactionary nature.
There is still a long way to go. It is difficult to fight for the country, and it is even harder to fight for the country. I hope the emperor can finish what he started. Suddenly, she saw the shadow of her eldest grandson, and Emperor Taizong was very concerned. Soon, Xu Cairen was promoted to Xu Jieyu, from level five to level three. Connie Hsu continued to care about state affairs and soon became brilliant. Electrification is one of the names of the ninth wife. You are in Grade Two, so Xu Hui rose from Grade Three to Grade Two. After twenty-three years of observation, Emperor Taizong died and Xu Chongrong was very sad. She said that the first emperor was very kind to me, and I vowed to follow him openly. So when she was sick, she refused to take medicine and soon became a double suicide. After his death, he was posthumously awarded the Xu Xianfei Prize. From Xu Cai people to Connie Hsu, to Xu Chongrong, and then to Xu Xianfei, Xu Hui changed from five products to one. On the other hand, what about Wu Zetian at that time? She went from Wu Cairen to Wu Cairen and finally to Wu Cairen. Obviously, Emperor Taizong liked Xu Hui's character and personality better than Wu Zetian.
Look at Wu Zetian again. What qualifications does she meet? Not appropriate.
Let's talk about the first point, position ourselves and observe female virtue. She can't. It can be seen from the Lion Spirit incident that she likes to be a bird and others don't say a word. She jumped out and said, "I can cure it." Where did she put the emperor and others? There is no correct positioning.
Second, that is to say, the world is good for great things. Wu Zetian is indeed a great female politician in the future, but at this time she is still a young girl and does not show this feature.
She also tried to train horses and practice calligraphy. She found that Emperor Taizong liked Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, so she copied Wang Xizhi's calligraphy all day, hoping to make a breakthrough in this respect and become the emperor's confidante. Later, she really became a calligrapher. But whether it is horse training or writing, for the emperor, it is just a hobby, not a business. What does the emperor like best? Love the country most. He needs a woman who can help him keep his job, not someone who can accompany him to eat, drink and have fun. Therefore, Wu Zetian chose the wrong starting point.
Look at the third point, gentle and honest, soft outside and rigid inside. Wu Zetian can't do it. Wu Zetian is a person who often draws a sword, and she is a savage girlfriend in ancient costume.
Wu Zetian doesn't meet these three points, and her personality will definitely deprive her of the opportunity in the court of Emperor Taizong. As there is no chance, according to the general idea, he may be appointed. But Wu Zetian is not an ordinary person. She will never bow to fate. When she found that Emperor Taizong couldn't find an opportunity here, she set her sights on a new goal. who is it? This wise man, named Li, is the ninth son of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, and will certainly make great achievements in the future.
The ancients said, "A curse is a blessing, and a blessing is a curse." Happiness and misfortune are mutually transformed. Wu Zetian's fortitude, courage and enterprise can not absorb Emperor Taizong, but only his fragile son. It was this young prince who later gave Wu Zetian a chance to dramatically change her destiny. The change of her fate has rewritten the history of China and added a gorgeous page to the eternal infamy.
