Wuyou signaled to Pei Qingxu, and Pei Qingxu turned on the computer, and there were film and television materials edited by Wuyou on the desktop.

He clicked play and a song started playing.

Wuyou slowly said along with the singing: "Empress Shen of Ruizhen, her name is not recorded in the history books, but it is passed down by mouth from descendants. It is said that her name was Shen Zhenzhu. She was also called this way in many movies and TV dramas of later generations. . She may be the only queen in history whose life or death is unknown, and her whereabouts are unknown."

"During the Anshi Rebellion, Xuanzong fled in a hurry. Shen Zhenzhu and some of the royal family members did not have time to escape with him. There is no record of how she arrived in Luoyang. A year later, Li Yu regained Luoyang and met Shen Zhenzhu, but Li Yu still wanted to When he went to retake the Northland, the military situation was very urgent, so he did not have time to send Shen Zhenzhu back to Chang'an, but settled in Luoyang. He originally thought that when he returned from retaking the Northland, he would take Shen Zhenzhu back to Chang'an and reunite his family, but who knew Things are unpredictable, Luoyang fell again, and Shen Zhenzhu's whereabouts are also unknown."

"After Li Yu ascended the throne and regained Luoyang, he has been looking for traces of Shen Pearl, but unfortunately he has never been found. When Shen Pearl's son Dezong Li Shi came to the throne, no news about Shen Pearl was found. No one was found, but She still needs to be canonized. Li Shi canonized Shen Zhenzhu as the Empress Dowager. During the canonization ceremony, Li Shi could only kneel in front of the air, which is really a pity."

"Because Shen Zhenzhu's experience is so legendary, later generations have adapted many film and television dramas based on this period of history. There are many versions of these dramas, but most of them use Daizong and Shen Zhenzhu as the male and female protagonists, telling the story of the love between two people who parted and died. Of course, there are also villains among them. The villains in each version are different, and some villains are Xuanzong..."

Li Longji couldn't breathe after hearing this and almost fainted again.

Tianmu scolded him many times, but he never said anything. He also knew that the Anshi Rebellion was his fault.

But what does it have to do with him that his grandson's wife can't be found? How could he become a villain again?

But others thought it was all Xuanzong's fault.

They were a good couple who loved each other very much. If it weren't for the popular resentment caused by Xuanzong and the Anshi Rebellion, would they have been separated in the chaos of war?

Of course, Wuyou said the same thing.

"I guess Daizong must have true feelings for Shen Zhenzhu. Otherwise, he would not have searched for Shen Zhenzhu several times. When Shen Zhenzhu's life and death were unknown, he would have made her son Li Shi the crown prince and let Li Shi inherit the throne. .”

"Before the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Shen Zhenzhu's life should have been very good, but unfortunately...during the war, many life and death separations were staged. Speaking of which, it is all Li Longji's fault. It would be better if Li Longji died 20 years earlier. "

Li Longji couldn't breathe, he was really dizzy this time.

But he fainted, and no one in the world spared him.

Many people are scolding: "Damn Xuanzong, why didn't he die earlier?"

"It would have been better if he had died 20 years earlier."

"Yes, because he killed so many people in vain." Wuyou finished telling Shen Zhenzhu's story and continued: "Tang Daizong Li Yu, whose original name was Li Chu, was later renamed Li Yu. He was the ninth emperor of the Tang Dynasty. This Daizong The emperor was kind-hearted, benevolent and filial. After the Anshi Rebellion, he followed his father to Lingwu. When Suzong came to the throne, Li Yu was worshiped as the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses. He led Guo Ziyi and others to recover Chang'an and Luoyang, and successively advanced to Chu with their achievements in recovering the two capitals. Wang, Chengwang, and later was named the crown prince. After Suzong died and ascended the throne, he appointed his son Li Shi as the general marshal of the world's troops, recovered Luoyang and Hebei counties, and completely pacified them the following year. The Anshi Rebellion."

"When Li Yu was in power, he rectified the official system, stabilized the society, and developed production. Generally speaking, it was pretty good. However, he probably also learned from Xuanzong's principle of just running away when trouble came. When Tubo attacked Chang'an, he also hurriedly Escape.”

"But overall, Li Yu was not a mediocre emperor. It is a pity that he was born at the wrong time. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, more than a dozen vassal towns were established in various places. After the Anshi Rebellion, the separatist regime of vassal towns was established due to the suppression of the rebellion. The situation caused the central government's leadership to gradually become insufficient, and the territory of the Tang Dynasty gradually shrank. Li Yushi also made the situation of feudal separatism more serious because of the appointment of Anshi to demote generals..."

When Li Shimin heard this, his heart lifted.

The vassals and towns were divided, and he could understand what it was just by listening to the literal meaning.

It is said that it is a vassal town, but in fact it is not much different from each of the vassal states. Within the vassal town, Jiedu envoys can act cheaply and recruit soldiers. They will gradually disobey the rule. In the end, I am afraid that it will harm the entire world, causing the Tang Dynasty to fall into pieces and lead to its demise. .

At this moment, Li Shimin also understood why the Song Dynasty began to emphasize culture over military affairs at the beginning of its establishment.

They must have learned the lesson of the fall of the Tang Dynasty. They thought that the generals had soldiers, they could rebel if they wanted to, and they might overthrow the court, but the civil servants could only write some vile articles, which would not cause much harm.

However, the Song Dynasty went a little too far, which also led to lame walking, and was eventually defeated by foreigners.

What should we do if we want to prevent military generals from causing rebellion?
This is what Li Shimin is thinking about.

When Wuyou said this, he thought of something.

"About Daizong, in addition to the legend of his queen Shen Zhenzhu, there is also a story related to his daughter Princess Shengping. This story has also been adapted into operas and film and television dramas by later generations, and there are many versions."

"What is this thing about? Well, yes, it's just getting drunk and hitting the golden branches."

"In order to win over Guo Ziyi, Emperor Daizong married Princess Shengping to Guo Ziyi's son Guo Ai. Once Princess Shengping and Guo Ai had a quarrel. Guo Ai became anxious and pointed at Princess Shengping and said, just rely on your father to be the emperor. If not, My father doesn’t want to be the emperor, so why is it your family’s turn in this world? Princess Shengping was very angry when she heard this, and ran to the palace to complain to Daizong. After hearing this, Daizong did not blame Guo Ziyi for this. Guo Ziyi came to apologize to Daizong. At that time, Daizong still said that he was neither deaf nor dumb nor a family man. The children quarreled and got angry and talked about anything. What's the point. But Guo Ziyi still felt that Guo Ai had no king, so he beat Guo Ai after he returned. ."

"Historical records are like this, but later adaptations are different. After the adaptation, Guo Yan beat Princess Shengping out of anger, and Princess Shengping complained. Emperor Daizong wanted to execute Guo Ziyi's family, and Princess Shengping thought about the daily life of the Guo family. Li was so kind to her and couldn't bear to let the Guo family suffer, so he knelt down and begged Daizong to forgive the Guo family and give him a lenient sentence."

"Of course, this is just one version. There are many different versions, so we won't go into them one by one."
