Jiang Nv is indescribable

Tu Kai's reign is not short, a full 40 years.

In the early days of his administration, he appointed people on their merits, was diligent in political affairs, and was quite benevolent.

He and his first wife, Queen Shelan, are also extremely affectionate. No matter when they were the crown prince or after they ascended the throne, they have no different children. Only three sons are all born by Queen Shelan.

All the turning points happened in the No.20 year of his reign.

That year, Tu Kai suddenly sent troops to attack the small country of Dongou in the southeast.

The ancestors of the king of Dongou had the grace of rebirth to Tu Tuo, the founder of Da Viet, and belonged to Da Viet early on, and made great contributions in the process of Tu Tuo's unification of Nanzhou.

When Tu Tuo passed away, he had a will that Da Yue and Dong Ou will coexist forever, and future generations will never forget it.

As a result, Tu Kai brazenly tore up the covenant, conquered Dongou himself, and won a complete victory.

In addition to countless captives and endless treasures, Tu Kai also brought back a stunning beauty when he returned triumphantly—the youngest daughter of the Eastern Ou Kingdom.

Tu Kai lost his soul when he saw her, and insisted on accepting her as his concubine, so she became Concubine Yaoli.

Tu Kai loved Concubine Yaoli very much, fearing that she would be homesick, so he built a new palace for her, modeled on Dongou Palace City; fearing that she would not be familiar with water and soil, he selected Dongou chefs from among the captives to cook for her the delicacies of his hometown. ...

And because of this, he neglected his first wife, and gradually became strangers to Queen Shelan.

Soon after, Young Concubine Yaoli gave birth to a son, and Tu Kai even had the idea of ​​abolishing the elder and establishing the younger.

The news reached the ears of Queen Shelan, and she could no longer sit idly by as before.

She tried to win back her husband's heart.

However, even nine bulls cannot pull back a man who has changed his mind.

She was old and frail, and the jade-like beauty embraced by her husband was only about the same age as her eldest son...

Color declines but loves to ride, loves to ride but loves to die.

The vow of unconditional love has long been forgotten together with their childhood sweethearts, and the tenderness that once belonged only to her is now given to another person by him.

In a quarrel, Tu Kai became even more unscrupulous, angrily denouncing Queen Shelan as an "ugly old woman".

Queen Shelan stared at his back as he walked away, vomited a mouthful of blood, and has been ill ever since.

After the fall of Queen Shelan, the eldest son Tu Wudi was immediately sent to garrison in Rongqi Prefecture, and the second and third sons were also transferred away from the royal city. away from the center of power.

In less than half a year, Queen Shelan died of illness, and the three princes returned to the royal city for the funeral.

The funeral was extremely simple, and Tu Kai was so busy taking care of the sick young concubine Yaoli that he didn't even show up.

Although the three brothers felt wronged for their mother, they could only endure it.

After the funeral was completed, it was already the end of the new year, so Tu Kai ordered them to spend the new year in the palace before returning to their residence.

On the first day of the first day, the palace was singing and dancing, and Tu Wudi felt depressed. He went to worship in front of his mother's mausoleum, and returned drunk in the middle of the night.

Hearing that the father was staying in Concubine Yaoli's palace again, he asked the palace attendant to deliver the jug of wine that was used to sacrifice his mother untouched: "How can you respect your mother but not respect your father? Tell the father and king that this is the filial piety of a son."

The palace attendant delivered the wine as promised.

Before the time for a stick of incense, the close attendant rushed into the bedroom in panic: "Prince Chu! Disaster!"

——After the wine was delivered, when Tu Kai was about to drink it, he was found to be poisonous.

Tu Wudi sobered up in an instant, shouting that he was wronged.

But he knew in his heart that the furious father would not listen to his justification, and it would be impossible to escape back to the station...

The person who took him was already on the way. In desperation, Tu Wudi fled Miyagi with his sword and committed suicide in front of his mother's tomb.

After Tu Wudi's death, his two younger brothers hurriedly fled Wangcheng for fear of being wronged as accomplices.

When Tu Kai saw that they had left without saying goodbye, he decided that they were guilty of thieves, and he clearly had the same intention of treason as his eldest son, so he immediately sent troops to their defensive area to crusade...

So far, one of the three sons born to Queen Shelan died and the other fled.

Tu Kai finally got his wish and appointed Tu Wuxuan, who was born to Young Concubine Yaoli, as the crown prince.The prince who is still in his infancy is also the first one.

Ten years passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past ten years, Tu Kai indulged in beauty, neglected the government, and favored treacherous officials, which caused unrest in the court and the field, and the national strength of Da Viet was severely damaged, and it has been in a slump ever since...

What was even more unfortunate was that his youngest son, who was loved by all, fell off his horse and died.

After Tu Wuchen's death, Concubine Yaoli didn't eat or drink, and she died soon after.

Tu Kai was so heartbroken that his head turned gray overnight.

Just because Young Concubine Yaoli didn't want to be a queen or enter the royal tomb, he canceled his plan to move Queen Shelan's coffin, buried it in the tomb himself, and reserved his own place in Concubine Yaoli's tomb.

Tu Kai, who was over fifty years old, became discouraged and brought back his two sons who were in exile on the advice of his courtiers.

The courtiers thought that the turbulent Dai Viet could finally return to calm, but unexpectedly, new chaos will begin.

Although Tu Kai called back his two sons, he still hesitated to appoint a new crown prince.

There are various speculations in the ruling and opposition parties, inside and outside the palace city, and the battle for the throne between the two princes who have officially returned to the palace kicked off.

It lasted eight years from rivalry to vendetta against each other... Before the winner was decided, the rebel army invaded the royal city, and the country of Dayue was destroyed.
-
Si Ni is only curious about the beauty of the young concubine Yaoli: "How stunning is it, to fascinate a king like that?"

There were even rumors among the people that Tu Kai sent troops to attack Dongou in the first place, targeting Young Concubine Yaoli.Over time, this also became a charge against Young Concubine Yaoli.

Jiang Fosang shook his head: "Dong Ou has always been attached to Dayue, if Tu Kai really fell in love with Concubine Yaoli early in the morning, there is no need to go to war at all."

"According to this, Concubine Yaoli is even more capable. From a subjugated prisoner to a king's favorite concubine, her son has become the crown prince. Fortunately, God has a good eye and took their mother and son away early."

"Disaster, chaos..." Jiang Fosang lowered his eyes and smiled, looking at the scroll in his hand.

Regardless of the previous dynasty or the current dynasty, the world unanimously believed that it was Concubine Yaoli who caused the turmoil of those ten years.

And the turmoil in those ten years was regarded as the beginning of the country's subjugation-from which it was deduced that Concubine Yao Li was the culprit of Dai Viet's demise.

It sounds reasonable, but it doesn't stand the test of time.

She has read this book many times, but there are very few records about such a woman who has caused disasters to the country and the people. They are all qualitative words such as "bewitching the king, angering the sky and resenting the people".

There are details, such as how Tu Kai doted on her, and what costly things he did for her...

There are very few words and deeds about Concubine Yaoli herself, there is only one sentence: "Concubine enters the royal city, speak and laugh less".

An ice jade beauty who never speaks or smiles, but the Taoist monarch only obeys her words.

However, there is no strong evidence that she had ambitions, killed the king's heir, colluded with officials, worked in collusion, meddled in the government affairs, and caused chaos in the government...

Then again, what evidence is needed for something that can be straightened out by thinking about it with your toes?
The monarch is because of the war she launched, and the chaos in Dai Viet began after she entered the palace. The poisoned wine case happened in her palace. The death of the crown prince is inseparable from her. Poisonous hands, just because she doesn't speak or smile in front of people doesn't mean she won't blow pillows...
