1. Empress Xiao's Twilight Love
Emperor Taizong was over 50 years old, and his enthusiasm for ruling the world with high spirits has receded like a tide.Emperor Taizong had a strong sense of accomplishment at this time, and he had indeed worked hard for half his life. The economic prosperity and national strength of the "Zhenguan Reign" that he had worked hard and worked hard for for several years proved his success in governing the country since he entered politics. The Tang Empire was the most prosperous and prosperous country in the world, so all nations came to congratulate, the great China is majestic, and Su Shili is brilliant.

The 50-year-old Emperor Taizong has achieved great success and power, and he began to gradually relax in listening to the government. As his enthusiasm for ruling the world with high spirits receded like a tide, he loved to have fun in the harem and concubines more and more.Emperor Taizong, who had a strong sense of accomplishment, felt that his own time before sunset was running out. In his later years, he wanted to enjoy life and life well. Apart from beauties, he thought that building large-scale construction and extravagance Not enough.Simultaneously, the taxation of the common people increased, and the military was used year after year, which led to the development of class conflicts, and the social turmoil at that time, but after the turmoil subsided, he remained the same, still a woman and a luxury.

Since Gaozu came to the throne in the Tang Palace, more than 1000 useless court ladies have been released.When Emperor Taizong ascended the throne for the first time, he released more than [-] court ladies.In the second year of Zhenguan, more than [-] court ladies were released because of the long absence of rain.In the end, because of the amnesty, more than [-] court ladies were also released.Nowadays, Emperor Taizong seldom sits in the court, but spends more time traveling in the palace. Wherever he goes, he suddenly feels that the buildings are desolate, the pools and halls are depressed, so he ordered the local officials to send a thousand maids, which are worth every palace; If there are virtuous and beautiful women, there must be [-] secretary interviewers, who are divided into nine concubines, Jieyu, beauties, and talents.

Emperor Taizong had long heard that Zheng Renji, a scholar, had a daughter who was beautiful and talented, so he ordered the Yeting Bureau to issue a letter of appointment and hire Zheng's daughter as a capacity.

The system of eunuchs in the Tang Dynasty was like this. There were four internal servants, six internal regular servants, six internal supervisors, eight internal servants, 12 internal servants, 18 court officials, and 600 imperial servants. Two people, six eunuchs.Another five bureaus were set up: the Yeting Bureau, which was in charge of the roster of palace personnel; There are lamps and candles in the palace; the Inner House Bureau is in charge of the entry and exit of property.There are more than [-] eunuchs inside and outside the palace.

At this time, the Yeting Bureau received the imperial decree and sent eight servants, Dianyin, to Zheng's house with books and crowns in their hands.As soon as the group walked out of the palace gate, they met Prime Minister Wei head-on. After asking about the reason, Prime Minister Wei hurriedly detained the servants and hurried into the palace to meet Taizong and said: "I heard that Zheng Renji's daughter has promised to marry the scholar Lu Shuang. Why does His Majesty take a married woman by force?"

Taizong was very surprised, and immediately issued an order to stop the order, ordered Fang Xuanling to visit Zheng's house, and called Lu Shuang to come into the palace for questioning.As a result, Zheng Renji repeatedly told Fang Xuanling that the youngest daughter was not married; Lu Shuang also claimed that Xiaomin had never hired a wife.Taizong was very puzzled, so he invited Prime Minister Wei into the palace and asked him how to explain all this.Prime Minister Wei said: "This is all due to my subordinates catering to Shang's wishes and deliberately concealing the marriage of the Lu family. I have investigated and confirmed that the daughter of the Zheng family has been betrothed to Lu Shuang as a wife since she was a child. Long live, never marry by force." A married woman breaks up the marriage, and after a hundred generations, it will be a burden of prosperity and virtue."

Taizong was still not convinced, and said: "The ministers may have the intention of catering, but why is Lu Shuang willing to give up his fiancée?" How dare Shuang not say that, he only suspects that although His Majesty gave up on the surface, he will punish him secretly, so he has no choice but to do so."

Taizong was moved by this, and immediately issued an edict to stop the election of Zheng's daughter.Prime Minister Wei was very happy when he saw it, and took the opportunity to persuade Taizong to be a girl and take good care of his health. He also told Taizong the stories of ancient sages and heroes.

But in a blink of an eye, Taizong received the good news, saying that he had won another battle and captured the mother and daughter of Empress Xiao from the previous dynasty. Lying in front of the palace, trembling and trembling, she couldn't even speak clearly, but Empress Xiao had gone through many vicissitudes and was well-informed. At this moment, she approached the case without panic or panic, and bowed her knees. Worship: "My concubine Xiao sees you, may your majesty live forever!"

Although Emperor Taizong had heard of her classic stories about Yu Wenhuaji who stooped to be a regicide as soon as Emperor Sui Yang died, he never thought that she would be so shameless and immediately consider herself a concubine, but these two sentences The words are softly spoken, really cute.

Taizong looked down, but saw that although her waist was not thin like a willow, but plump and attractive, he couldn't help thinking to himself, he had heard that Empress Xiao was a beauty, but she was over 60 years old, why she was still so graceful, could it be a fake no?So he asked softly: "Are you really the Empress Xiao of the Sui Dynasty?" Xiao quickly replied yes, and Taizong said: "Since you are the empress of the Sui Dynasty, please get up quickly!"

Empress Xiao stood up after thanking her, with an elegant temperament and a demure expression, which attracted Taizong to look at her again. This old lady still has all the charms. Although her face is full of fine wrinkles, her eyebrows are still undrawn. Cui, her face is white without powder, her lips are red without paint, her eyes are like autumn water, and her nose is like Qiongyao's. Even if Baosi is reborn and Xia Ji is reborn, she is nothing more than that at this age.Taizong couldn't help teasing and said, "Qing is really good at keeping looks." So he gave the house to the capital.

Not surprisingly, within two days, Taizong called Empress Xiao into the palace again and asked about the story of the Sui Dynasty.Empress Xiao talked about it one by one, and even concluded that Emperor Yang's extravagance led to the subjugation of the country.Taizong asked Yu Wenhua and lived in the Sixth Palace back then. He heard that Empress Xiao had also been raped. I don't know if it is true or not. After hearing this, Empress Xiao's old face, which had experienced the ups and downs of the world, nodded repeatedly to confirm rather than falsify. Without changing his face, he recounted in detail the process of being raped at that time, especially in the details, so that Taizong, who was always lustful, could not help but not desire.Empress Xiao was afraid that it would be too explicit, so at the end of the talk, she faked tears and said: "The ministers and concubines have suffered tragic changes one after another, running and wandering, and for the rest of their lives, they will all rely on the gifts, and the ministers and concubines will be grateful for the grassroots title."

Taizong felt more pity for this beauty, and Empress Xiao took the opportunity to come up with some tricks in her life, teasing lightly, flirting horizontally and vertically, flirting with eyebrows and eyes, with a variety of charms and charming skills that no one can match.Emperor Taizong could even act as a concubine with his younger brother-in-law. After a long time, the two of them melted together like paint and glue, and they had a good dream together in the hall.

Princess Yicheng, the daughter of Emperor Sui Yang, followed in the footsteps of her mother not long after, but she also received the title given to her by Taizong while she was favored by Taizong. Later, she also gave birth to King Wu Li Ke.

For a while, Emperor Taizong was very lucky, but he was not satisfied, so a peerless girl was able to enter the Tang Palace and the power center of the Tang Dynasty, leading to an unprecedented shocking story.

2. Mei Mei Niang
The governor of Bingzhou heard that the daughter of the military governor in Wenshui, Bingzhou, was very beautiful. She was only 14 years old and already famous far and wide, so she reported it to invite her to be favored. Come.

The mother of the girl from the Wu family, Yang Shi, suddenly received the imperial edict from Emperor Taizong to call her a beauty, and she couldn’t help crying bitterly. When her daughter got into the car, she was still crying while giving instructions, but the girl from the Wu family talked and laughed freely, and comforted her, saying: "My daughter is going to see the emperor, and she knows that she is not a blessing? Why bother?" Weep for myself first!" It was really extraordinary.The girl from the Wu family came to the palace to meet Taizong, she didn't show any panic at all, she bowed gracefully, and then called Long live three times from the surname of Chen, all of them fit well.

Taizong ordered her to get up, and when she looked up, she was really like a lotus. She was only twenty-seven years old, but her body was already well-developed, with two jade peaks rising from her chest, her waist was thin, her hips were plump, as if she was seventeen or eighteen years old. What impressed Taizong the most was her pair of pretty eyes, flowing with radiance, coupled with a sweet and delicate throat, Taizong immediately fell in love with her, and what surprised Taizong was that she went to bed at night At that time, this little girl was already very romantic. At first, Taizong was afraid that she would not be able to bear it, but after the spring breeze, she became more tender and charming. Taizong couldn't help it, so he was generous to her again and again.

The spring night is short, and after a while, the red sun shines through the window, and Taizong has to get up again to look at the morning.He forced himself to leave this gentle town, and saw that the girl under the quilt was still awake, with her breasts half exposed, Taizong loved her more and more, so he gently pushed her awake, and gave her a name, Mei Niang .The girl from the Wu family then thanked her kindly on the pillow with sleepy eyes.

On the same day, Emperor Taizong issued an edict to confer Wu Meiniang as a talented person, to live in Fusui Palace, and to release all the old maids and maids. Even Yin and Zhang Erfei, who were favored by the ancestors in the past, were also ordered to leave the palace and return home. Revenge before revenge.

From then on, even the empress Xiao's mother and daughter, who had recently been favored, were no longer lucky. Taizong loved Wu Meiniang wholeheartedly, and when he retired from the court, he would call her Meiniang, hold her in his arms, and stroke and play with her for a while.Wu Meiniang also blindly acted coquettishly and acted more foolishly, making Taizong tease her even more.One afternoon, Taizong was sitting by the Yuehua Pool watching mandarin ducks playing in the water, and Meiniang was standing aside holding a fly whisk.At this time, there was no one around, and quietly, I saw a gorgeous mandarin duck chasing another mandarin duck, and it accomplished a good deed on the water.Mei Niang looked at it, and subconsciously covered her vermilion lips with a sneering smile, and at the same time squinted at Taizong charmingly.

Originally, he had been fighting in the Fengyue Field for decades, so this little scene could not excite Taizong, but Mei Niang covered her red lips with a charming smile, and then squinted at her, and then looked at her flushed cheeks , shy and cute, Taizong immediately became aroused, and hugged Mei Niang, and imitated it.After all, Mei Niang was still young and her body was still delicate, and when she was accepting grace, she groaned and flattered her, her fragrant sweat met the cold wind, and she became a little hot that night.Pian Taizong visited for three nights in a row with love and compassion. Meiniang fell ill, and she was ill for more than 20 days. Taizong couldn't bear the loneliness and went to another place to visit.

Lying on the hospital bed and feeling neglected for a while, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but start to make long-term plans for her future.Although I am favored now, Taizong is 50 years old after all, and he has enjoyed the country not long ago, and he has many domestic favors. I am humble and young, so I understand that I will not be able to enjoy the scenery for a few days.Especially thinking of his mother's tearful eyes before leaving, the sense of crisis became more and more urgent. From then on, Wu Cairen no longer cared about Taizong's favor, and secretly searched for talents among the princes.
