The person who married the founding king through martial arts competition was Li Shimin's mother, and she was called Queen Taimu in history. Queen Taimu's father was Dou Yi, the general manager of Dingzhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and his mother was also Princess Xiangyang of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, he was a serious lady, and the son he later gave birth to, Li Shimin, also became the emperor of the ages. And his husband was obtained through a martial arts competition at that time.
It was recorded in the books at that time that Mrs. Dou was born with different appearances. Her hair was very long when she was just born. When she was three years old, her hair was almost the same as her height, and she was very beautiful. Her uncle, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, liked her very much and often brought her up in the palace since she was a child. At that time, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Queen Ashina were not in good terms with each other and often quarreled. The young Dou family once persuaded Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to pay attention to husband and wife. Feelings, so Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty readily accepted his niece's persuasion. It is amazing that such a young Dou family had such insights.
When he was competing for a bride, many heroes and heroes came because they all knew that he was very beautiful and hoped that he could win the beauty. After several rounds of competition, he finally won. The person in question was none other than Li Yuan, the later founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty. The two of them had a very good relationship after they got married. Li Yuan only liked that Dou had never had a concubine.
Li Yuan gave birth to four sons and one daughter throughout her life. Because Ms. Dou herself is very good, she has always been very strict with her children. Therefore, her children were both civil and military, and one of her sons, Li Shimin, eventually became an emperor through the ages and a wise king. From this point of view, a child's development has a lot to do with the environment in which he lives. It is precisely because Mrs. Dou is so good that her children can be educated so well.
